You better take these suckers to tough task, settle for nothing less than replacement.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Mandeep148:
I think they will waste my time. They will say " i cant see what you are trying to show" its india :((

Pixel is hard to see, i hope they see it.

Btw how to force them to doa or replace? Any easy way?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] bhuvan9111:
If the screen is under warranty then there will be no issue until they argue with you. Then contact the samsung helpline service by calling them and asking to consider replacing the screen or the device. Mostly the screen should have warrenty for 1 year from the date of purchase. Make sure you have the bill of the product.

Did anyone else get updates on gearvr ??
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] zabaknilesh:
NO revert yet to me..just waiting !!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] vickymalhotra4uin:
My gear vr has been shipped...Received an email today with tracking details of the package.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] aravindun:
Oh ok, Did you get gearVR as pre-order offer or 50% off.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] vickymalhotra4uin:
Pre-order offer
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] arundavidberty:
Mine tooo! Just got a text from Samsung e-store that my VR is ready to be dispatched!

Pre-ordered my s7 edge through Samsung e-store. Redeemed my VR coupon on April 5th.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Harsh:
At what time did you redeem on 5th? I did at 10:30 am but still no sms or email.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] AmanJhawar:
He did it at 10:29 am. I mean, seriously, what kind of stupidity is this? You'll get your free VR when Samsung has their stock.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Harsh:
Just need answers on how samsung chooses to whom they send VR first. Is it first come first serve or some random algorithm or just pure luck.

bro,is it good with back case?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] swiftfury:
Which back case? It works for the spigen thin fit case, but I had to return the spigen liquid crystal since it pulled on the edges of the screen protector.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] sam77744:
bro is it comfrt with with spigen case.?kindly reply coz what i use now is not ok with with spigen case..tx

bro i have Galaxy S7 Edge Case, Spigen® [Ultra Hybrid] AIR CUSHION [Crystal Clear]
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] swiftfury:
Probably won't work with Armorsuit, but they do have a case friendly screen protector as well on their website.

Damn that sucks, did you bring it in for replacement?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kreativegeek:
Not pressing for replacement yet I am trying to get it repaired for now, if any thing happens after this I would take them to consumer court for sure
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] prmah:
Yes, i m using it with spigen neo hybrid . PFA images

i got two bubbles near volume rocker that are due to dust while i was applying screen protector .. Anyways i have another one and will be replacing it soon.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] arundavidberty:
Just got the spigen crystal clear case from Amazon. It's the only case that goes well with spigen ultra hybrid too.

And for everyone complaining about the edges not sticking in spigen cases, that must be because of the oleophobic coating samsung gives our phone. It should fade off in a month or two. Then there should be no issues of edges lifting off.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] techsammy:
I ordered at 10 am that day. Still my order hasn't been shipped. So no worries, maybe we will get the second batch.

---------- Post added at 10:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:28 AM ----------

I faced the similar problem earlier and here's the previous condition of that phone: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66373735&postcount=1

I immediately contacted Flipkart for replacement and they agreed upon my request. I don't know about the return policy of Samsung India estore but hopefully you get then replaced as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kreativegeek:
Thanks for your reply, In my case the unit is above 30 days in use now so cannot go back to Flipkart with 30 day return policy. Samsung is directly involved now. The service engineer came this afternoon to pick up my phone.

Waiting to hear from them.

BTW: I also got my free Gear VR shipment alert today afternoon
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] aravindun:
at what time did u place the order for gear VR ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] vickymalhotra4uin:
Received my free gear vr today :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kreativegeek:
5th April
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] aravindun:
Oh ok but can you please tell what time you would have placed your order. Just wanted to understand if they are shipping it on first come first serve basis
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] charming.arpit:
There is no such timing issue of placing the order. I placed it day before yesterday and I have got the message from Samsung that my Gear VR is already packed. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] brs91:
It is really disheating to see that Samsung made a fool of people like me who claimed the Gear VR offer at 50% off. (approx Rs. 4000) whereas the Gear VR is now being offered at Rs. 990 only.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] charming.arpit:
I don't think that Samsung made us fool. Its all about the offers at the time of purchase. Moreover, the prices of such devices always fall. In fact its good to see that Samsung is still not revising the prices of s7 edge downwards.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] anilkumarpt12:
received my VR today.... ?? thankq Samsung for free VR
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kreativegeek:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kannanX10:
damn.........they r opening ur device,do check for water resistance while collecting...................
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] bala_gamer:
ya, have already told them about it. any idea how to check it?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kannanX10:
ask them to immerse ur device in a bowl of water(tell them some r having issues after repairing their device),wait for sometime and then check thoroughly for water seepage
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Dpk1:
You'll probably get the sony one.. but who knows. Anyway do check your camera lens cover under direct light for any smudges or dust after the repair. Also, ask them to demonstrate water resistance as said by [MENTION=2556716]kannanX10[/MENTION].
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] bala_gamer:
Sony or samsung as long as they give back the device intact I'll be a happy customer

Got my VR too today. Is Samsung giving any free games bundle also in India?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Chirag22ster:
Hello everyone. I am from Mumbai.

I had almost decided to buy the S7 edge but the no of members complaining about defects has made me little apprehensive. Please advise

A dealer is fort has quoted 53250 for the phone which seems like a good deal.

Which is the best place to buy? Online through flipkart or offline?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] bhuvan9111:
Its always better online because you can clam your new product if the received on if defective with in 30 days. Even after that samsung service centers does provide 6 months for battery and so on so it is better to buy online than offline.

We cant trust dealers at local stores.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] toocool7610:
Should buy it? Any issues?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kreativegeek:
It's safer to buy via Flipkart rather than saving few bucks for some offline deal, I am yet to receive my phone from repair handed over to service center on 7th May.

The problem is not with the phone but the way Samsung handles after sales service, it makes you feel equal to some one buying a Samsung Guru phone. I am sticking to S7 edge only because of the camera and battery back up stability
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] vari9:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] trishul:
Has anyone been able to do anything about the wretched earpiece speaker crackling sound issue? I'm on my 2nd device and same issue persists. The buggers at the service centre wanna open it up but I'm not sure I will let them because of the waterproofing
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kannanX10:
i don't have any issue reg earpiece with my black onyx S7 edge,on par with my note 5.....................
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] toocool7610:
Damn looks like I should wait for revision hardware , I mean hardware changes in assembly line.

How do we know when that happens?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] clavicle:
Yes i am the successful one in getting the issue resolved by Samsung. It was a mix up of trials and errors by them.

First they replaced earpiece, but it was quite unsuccessful.

Finally they replaced the motherboard and earpiece too. It was resolved.

As they explained perhaps higher audio voltage going over to the earpiece to distort it.

A final check by hardware check menu confirms issue resolved. Now I have to check the water proofing of same as they have replaced the water proofing tape during repair and sealed the set with compression and heat.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] trishul:
So basically we pay 55k for a phone which has a manufacturing defect and then we waste time in sending it to service centre and they open up our brand new phones and replace the major parts and reseal which we are not sure will be as good as factory fit - WHAT CRAP.

these buggers should be taken to task and they should replace our phones

I wish we had a strong consumer law in our country
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] clavicle:
Yes, even CEO office of Samsung couldn't reply to my query whether they would deal in similar manner with customers of USA. I must say it was a horrible experience. Damn Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] bhuvan9111:
I am thinking of buying a galaxy s7 black soon.

I need all your feedback in the device as well as the service because i see a lot of bad remarks regarding service.

Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] trishul:
Bro DONT buy the black - i did too - after couple of days u will see dust entering the gorilla glass around the home button and theres no way u can get it out. It looks bad + silver looks awesomeeeeee trust me - had to get mine replaced with a silver one because the black looks pretty dull and boring too
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] bhuvan9111:
I am a die hard fan of silver and white, till now all my devices are white so I wanted to try a black one.

I will take a look at both in real life and decide.

Mostly I will go with you. Thanks for the feed back brother.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] toocool7610:
Flipkart doesn't have it now

What is the best price I can get with gear vr?

Guys please check your hardware version and please tell what is it......... To check dial *#2222# from call screen

It's either .6 or .7 version

Should I wait for version .8?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] swiftfury:
I completely disagree, Black is the most subtle and best color out there. Silver and gold stick out like sore thumbs, it doesn't look classy and borders on cheap with its reflection, not to mention fingerprints will be more visible on a silver surface than black.

I would definitely go for the black one, for one, its been nearly two months for me and I have yet to notice any dust, second the screen looks really immersive with the edge when watching videos, or photos or well, really anything.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] kannanX10:
absolutely i agree with u....................silver and gold are quite similar in reg to s7 edge(i myself regretted trying a silver s7 edge then went for black),was diff and good with note5

Black onyx is the best color IMHO..................
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] AmanJhawar:
I second that. Black onyx is so subtle and sexy at the same time. Everything is just so immersive to look at.

Mine is now 0.801, didn't check the faulty one. It is a new motherboard that got into my phone. This one doesn't have any issues with the earpiece distortion.

Hello guys.

Found an offer on ebay. A dealer on ebay selling dual sim S7 edge with manufacturer warranty for INR 48500. The offer seems too good to be true hence wary of it.

Ebay has a 30 days return policy. What is ur past experience with the same.

Please advise. Intend to buy it on Saturday.

Also a good friend of mine who is a dealer is selling it to me for INR 53500.

Got my Gold S7 Edge last night from a samsung store here in mumbai. In the store when the sales guy setup the phone, i noticed there was an update available for download.... Thought he dismissed the notification... but then when i got home and tried to check for an update, it says latest updates already installed.

My phone shows the current update as G935FXXU1APBH

Can someone please confirm if this is indeed the Day 1 update that we in India are supposed to get?
