Well it certainly did not mention Knox. It was basically part of a list of terms that would void the warranty and the exact words of this bulletpoint were "If the software has been modified (rooted)". So reverting back to stock may get you around this. I certainly did revert back to stock before I took it into them.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Beefheart:
I'm surprised by this, given that knox is tripped by flashing a custom recovery which makes no changes to /system at all, and certainly doesn't equate to rooting (although we know that 99% of the time it would or else why install it). I'm no legal expert but they seem to be leaving themselves open by not referring to knox directly.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] CuBz90:
I agree. If the system was in tact as per stock but Knox was tripped and they refused a repair, one could simply argue that the terms refer to the system being modified and does not mention Knox.

I think they don't care about Knox being tripped, as long as the phone has been reverted to complete stock before taking it in for repair. Maybe it's easy for them to reset (as there's no efuse on Exynos) so as long as it has stock softweare it saves them the work. Just a guess.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Eddie Hicks:
I wonder how many they had available? This phone is only a couple weeks released. Running out of stock replacing damaged phones this soon is not a good sign.

He did say a lot of people are damaging the phone when dropping it so they were going quick. He'd replaced 6 that day alone
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] CuBz90:
Well I phones them today to let them know I would be going tomorrow as I cannot make it today and they've told me I can no longer have a free replacement. After 30 minutes of arguing on the phone the situation is that the offer ended yesterday and his colleague was not aware. He definitely was aware because he specifically told me that the offer ends sunday but he would still do it on Monday because a) he told me to go down and b) he gave the phone to someone else before me. But he refused to listen to me, refused to give me the name of the guy I spoke to and refused to give me a price for repair. Poor service. Where I work, if we make a promise, we have to stick to it whether we're supposed to or not. I wanted his name to make a complaint but he refused to give it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Beefheart:
That is piss poor. How badly damaged is your home button? Is it basically mangled and the fingerprint sensor doesn't work? Any chance of a pic? I can't imagine it would cost more than £100 for Samsung to replace. I suggest you get it done properly or you won't have your IP68.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] jimsey:
That's a shame,it was Daniel I spoke to in the store upstairs next to boots and he was very good, my repair quote was £90 for back glass, the girl before me was quoted £260 for new screen and back glass. Did you definitely speak to the store Upstairs? The one downstairs was quite rude with me but that's more of a sales and demo store,the one upstairs just do repairs
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] CuBz90:
Yes it was next to boots upstairs. I think I was in there when you was. Was you transferring all data from your gold S7 Edge to a black S7 Edge? I'm glad I have his name now anyway, the same guy dealt with me after you. He was very helpful at the time but it seems he has gone back on his promise or had no intention of doing it in the first place.

I contacted a different centre and they said it would be around £50. I have insurance with £25 excess so it would be cheaper that way. But my wife is going to take it in the store tomorrow and demand the replacement. So we'll see how that goes. I don't think she will be successful but she's surprised me in the past when I've doubted her lol
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] jimsey:
Hope you get it sorted, what did you break on your phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] CuBz90:
Home button. Dropped a knife on it.

That's to bad. My S7E arrived on March 2nd and it stayed in the box until March 4th that's when my Spigen Ultra Hybrid clear case arrived. After the case went on I started using the phone.

For all the money these manufacturers spend making these phones more powerful, etc. They spend a little more to make them more durable.

It seems that this S7/S7edge are so fragile....
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] CuBz90:
The fingerprint scanner does not work. The phone is not recognising the reader at all.

My wife has a photo on her phone which is also being exchanged today (due to phone turning itself off and on constantly ) so I will post a photo later when she has her replacement.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] CuBz90:
Well my wife went in today and they've exchange it (Thank God) no idea how she did it as I've not been able to speak to her as I'm in work, but she sent me a message letting me know she got the exchange.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Beefheart:
Fantastic news, congrats. To be fair, women are often better at these things, especially if it's a male environment they're dealing with. I've had very similar situations with my wife and dealing with blokes better than myself. I lose my rag and start to intimidate them, which doesn't always get the right results.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] CuBz90:
Exactly. She deals with these situations for me all the time with success

---------- Post added at 11:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:45 AM ----------

I have spoke to my wife again and she said that she received a call from the Store before she got there to apologise and advised there was a mix up. He then told her to go into store to collect it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] CuBz90:
Finally got that pic you wanted. Looking at this now it looks more like a chip.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] scratch420:
Well guys looks like im joining this club of damaged s7 edge :D

Bought s7 edge and in three days I got some black line sometimes showing up(just about 1 pixel wide) and half of the screen flickering green/white. Sometimes everything works just fine.

Dropped my phone just once, without any damage seen on the phone itself and it was about half meter or even less(slipped from my bed) plus on a soft carpet floor. It also happened on the day when I rooted it, using that first method we had before cf-auto, so Im not sure if all these problems are connected or just coincidence.

Right now its being fixed at samsung partnered service center(because in my country there are no real samsung centers) and my last update on their page says they sent an inquiry for an exchange. Not sure if that's about ordering new display or new phone..

Another thing is that my Knox is triggered, so hoping that I will not need to pay for anything..

Unfortunately I didn't take any pictures of the problem itself.

If they will tell that it was my fault of dropping it then I must say that its kinda crappy build then.. phones shouldn't stop working just falling from such small height. My s2 , s3, s4 and s6 were falling too(with cases on and even without) and I never had to fix them. I never had any broken screens or displays, just little damages on sides like scratches or bumps.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] ivdlz:
Also cracked

I know is hard to believe, but I didn't even drop it. I was at the swimming pool, I left it at the border. Took it a couple of times, and when I was leaving, looked at the back and saw this.

If it got hit, it was just me leaving it at the border of the swimming pool. Not hard at all... I dont recommend to go naked on this phone...

---------- Post added at 03:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 PM ----------

I can't post pictures yet, but basically the back of the phone is damaged. Disapointed. I've dropped my phones from time to time but I have never seen anything like this.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] ingenious247:
While I do feel for you, anyone who takes an all glass phone to a pool and leaves it sitting on what is essentially porous concrete without protection, should expect damage.. at the very least, scratches.

These are *glass* phones. Glass. Not Adamantium.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Beefheart:
The protective films that came on the front and back of this thing weren't removed until I was about to install a screen protector and put it in the case I bought. The idea of putting this phone, unprotected, on anything but soft fabric makes me cringe.

Smashed the back glass of the s7 edge, slipped onto a tiled floor, can the back glass alone be replaced? And would it have an effect on the device IP68 rating?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] meyerweb:
Yes, the back glass can be replaced. Whether it affects the IP rating depends on who repairs it, how well he or she does their job, and how well that person follows Samsung's assembly instructions, I think. If Samsung replaces it, I would expect it to retain the IP68 rating. If Joe's Neighborhood Phone Repair does it, who knows.

Honestly, for those of you who just cracked the back of the phone, just buy a dbrand skin. It will hide all the cracks and hopefully keep the phone together
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] blwc:
I have horrible luck with new phones such that if I even look at the phone...it gets a scratch. The moment I got my S7 Edge...I immediately went out to find a front and back glass protector. I also have it in a clear case. Not taking any chances here...

BTW...of course the one time I took the phone out of the case to switch cases, of course I end up dropping it onto hardwood floor...but luckily not a single scratch or crack. Had a mini heart attack at the moment of the drop. Never again!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] anonymouswallaby:
great advice after having a broken phone go put it on your hotplate in your kitchen, also remember to add butter to the bread first then add cheese to phone.

hope you got insurance for the phone, sell it claim it stolen pay deductible receive new phone, FONT BREAK NEW PHONE FOR 6 MONTHS , ... Rinse repeat

[Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shah1989:
Hi all. New to XDA but have finally joined. I have taken the step away from Samsung's bloatware and been using the UK version of Droid Turbo 2... The Moto X force. Have to say is a fantastic beast of a phone but have recently been experiencing overheating and the phone reaching 45°c (gsam battery monitor). Literally heats up in 3 minutes of Clash of Clan on about 20% screen brightness. I thought this version of snapdragon 810 was the "revised" version which had no overheating. Should I be concerned about this or is it normal? I'll be sending phone back to Motorola anyway to fix a stuck pixel so was wondering if this is something that should be mentioned. Thanks in advance all :good: sorry if this thread is in the wrong place.
[Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChazzMatt:
You probably want this forum:

http://xdaforums.com/droid-turbo-2

Moto X Force/Droid Turbo 2 released in late 2015/early 2016 is "Kinzie". Even though it's called the "Droid Turbo 2" forum, it's really an all-in-one Kinzie forum.

This forum is for the late 2014/early 2015 "Quark" -- Moto Maxx (XT1225, XT1250)/Moto Turbo (XT1225)/Droid Turbo 1 (XT1254), even though confusingly there's also another dedicated Droid Turbo XT1254 forum. (But most of the dev work for all the Quarks are in this forum.)

The Quark released about the same time as the Moto Nexus 6, and was the closest thing to a 5.2" version of the too-big Moto Nexus 6 -- with 95% same specs except for size.

Same manufacturer,

same CPU,

GPU,

RAM,

1440p resolution,

turbo charging,

Qi wireless charging.

It was what the gen6 Nexus should have been -- and Google/Motorola was testing a 5.2" version of the Nexus 6 as late as mid-August 2014... Note smaller, more reasonable size, yet BIGGER battery? ;)

Yeah, I need to update the software portion -- BOTH have Marshmallow now. (We have Marshmallow custom ROM, if not stock.)

"Kinzie", then, is the successor to "Quark" -- but in our opinions isn't that much better, other than going from Snapdragon 805 to the problematic Snapdragon 810 and supposed "unbreakable" screen display (which has had green glitching issues). If Motorola had wanted to really improve the phone, they would have given it rear camera OIS and stereo speakers -- like their Moto Nexus 6 had. ;) Those were the only two things missing from the Quark that would have made it PERFECT!

When the Moto X Force was first announced, we had high hopes and there was a thread discussing the upcoming phone, but the real forum is in the link above.

moto x force

I read somewhere that people were having issues with the moto x force overheating due to improperly installed SIM cards. If they aren't trimmed properly they short things out. You got a grounded pad man?
[Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shah1989:
Sorry what do you mean by grounded pad? And I have checked my sim and it is properly installed
[Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lateshift:
Grounded pad

If your SIM card isn't cut properly or, it's too thick it can cause a short leading to overheating issues. There was some mention of a known issue with cards and certain Motorola phones under the comment section of gsmarena.com . Sorry, your issue didn't turn out to be that simple. Good luck! Hope you find a solution.

got my xt1580 from netherlands 2 weeks ago yeah it does overheat about 45° celsius and even above but only when turbo charging mode conected and yes for me is acceptable , turbo charge and a good battery life ( 2 days ) dont worry it's not an nuclear reactor core its just a small problem but in other conditions like intense usage my x force its in normal limits
[Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] serendipity8:
I got my Moto X Force in September 2016. At the beginning, it was overheating here and there, but remained acceptable overall. In November 2016 I Installed the September security patches, just as they became available for my device. And ever since, It's become a nightmare - once on either Wi-Fi or 3g/4g, the phone would eat up 1% of the battery per minute. And it is constantly VERY hot, approx 102-104 F. In the Airplane mode, with no WiFi, the consumption remains acceptable, yet higher than it used to be. Other than that the phone is practically unusable due to the heat and the speed at which it looses battery. Please signal if any of you has got the same issues.

I haven't installed any new apps ever since the problems started.

The other change was that I installed a new 200Gb (Sandisk) microSD instead of a 64Gb I used previously. I formatted the disk as Internal memory. I strongly doubt this may have been the root cause of the phone constant overheating though.
[Moto Maxx Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChazzMatt:
Sorry for your problems, but as we mentioned up top, this is the wrong forum for Moto X Force (2015 Kinzie). This is the 2014 Quark forum, the predecessor to Kinzie. We don't have microSD cards.

[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fotios Sikalias:
Hello guys.

I bought my opx last month and for the most part of it I am very happy with the phone. I am an android newbie (I know what the terms flash, ROM, kernel etc mean but never tried something on my phone). One issue that really bugs me (apart from the little lag here and there when moving to shelf or when closing certain tabs from 'recent') is that whenever I select something from the settings, the 'select' animation (that little circle that expands) is really laggy and choppy. On the other hand, I tried it on my friend's opx and is was way smoother. (this was an issue from the start btw it is not that I installed a bad app or something). So, any ideas why this is happening? Should I try to flash a certain ROM or install a custom kernel? Is there a good build that improves performance?

Thanks in advance!
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psychem:
ye root and try a custom kernel first.
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] winesh:
You can try to reduce animation speed in developers options. Perhaps your friend also did this.
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajaysoranam:
backup everything and factory reset the device. it should fix it, if it doesn't then it probably is a hardware issue(unlikely)...

also make sure that you are on the latest version of OOS, i.e. 2.2.0-X.
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fotios Sikalias:
Actually I removed the animator scale completely because it was very choppy as i said. I tried it at x23 and x50 but still the same. :/
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tanner1294:
That's really strange. Have you tried factory resetting it? I used the stock rom in it's entirety for about a week and it was perfectly smooth and usable. I only switched to a different kernel because people were saying that it helped 3D performance noticeably (and they were right.).
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fotios Sikalias:
No I haven't. Maybe I should give it a try. The problem is that I removed animator scale completely and it doesn't bother me anymore, so I am not that motivated to factory reset :P. Btw, If i want to install the bluespark kernel you are probably talking about, I have to be rooted? Also does installing a custom kernel require a data wipe?
[OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tanner1294:
You do need to be rooted and have a custom recovery installed. The cool thing about 1+ is that neither of these things (which requires an unlocked bootloader) will void the warranty. Unlocking the bootloader will wipe the phones data sadly, I've never understood why. My Moto G did the same thing..
