You ran all three steps? I assume the SIM that doesn't work in your Athena does work in other phones?

What bands does the X7501 run on? Could iyt be that the SIM that doesn't work is locked to a band that's not supported? (850Mhz?)

So I have the edge since the 11th now. And every time I have the feeling that the screen is centered to the right side, I notice it extra with a case. As the area between the bezel and the screen is larger on the left side.

This afternoon I looked with an magnifying glass and indeed saw that this was indeed the situation. It is about 0.1 mm or so but oh so annoying. Luckily I can exchange it, however there will be only phones I stock around the 30th. Keeping mine thill then.

Are there others with the same issue?

The attached version is not my phone, but just an example to explain.

To better understand what i mean I attached a picture. I have the black version but you could see it as the black line on the right side of the phone is thinner than on de left, so the screen is essentially to far to the right..
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] TML1504:
not the best picture for judging...

But I know what you are talking, I have seen a few devices now and all of them were different in terms of screen quality and alignment!

for me, the worst problem is the uneven contrast (darker sides) on most of the screens. i own 3 devices now and all of them have display flaws. two suffer from a yellow tint when tilting, the other screen has a slightly darker left side... :|
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Kapitein187:
I know. When my S6 comes back from warranty repairs I will try to make a picture. The S5 I have laying around can't focus clearly enough.

Well I hope I won't have a replacement with tint issues or such. Because my screen is, aside of the alignment, pretty perfect. Maybe I'm a bit nitpicky but I think that's justified with these kind of price tags.

I still have till the 30th to get used to it or exchange it. An order for a replacement has been made.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] StreetkillnHD:
People complain about issues of screen color when tilting the device.. When are u ever tilting the device? U should be looking at it dead on anyways.

Honestly I don't see anything from ur picture, maybe ur just crazy.. If it is a little little misaligned who cares.. It's the curve part anyways..
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Kapitein187:
The picture I used is just to explain what i mean with the black lines on my phone. Imagine that picture with no black line on the right of the phone, so the screen blends in with the white. And a bigger black line on the left.

That's what i have, but my phone is black so i cant put it on a picture to explain it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] hasasimo:
I can really only tell in a dark room, but there is ever-so-slight light leakage where the glass meets the metal on the bottom of my S7 Edge. I see the slight leakage on the bottom-left and bottom-right. Doesn't bother me much, maybe a little, but my experience with smartphones is you'll be lucky to find one with absolutely flawless everything including screen alignment. It's often not worth exchanging for a new one, which may have other issues. Plus there's the whole issue of setting the phone up from scratch again. My device seems to be working fine (this is my 5th day with it) so far, so I won't be exchanging it.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] otacon888:
After reading this thread I checked mine and its is misaligned like you described. I then went to Samsung and they checked and said that its normal. Now that I see it, its driving me crazy.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Seikatsuu:
Same

Same **** with me. My screen is also misaligned and its driving me nuts with this phone price i dont know what to do about it. I have s7 edge btw same **** all over with the s6edge. I really didnt notice it when using the phone. I noticed it when im checking out the phone looking how pretty it is then when i turned on the screen i noticed that the left side of my screen has a thinner black bezel and when i look on the right it has a little bitty gap.

That picture should have said "Keep Tmobile being great"! If I was the CEO of a company and I come across something like this, I would be losing respect for whatever movement faster than ligth because it is making me look bad not just the company.. especially if it has not been proven that Tmo is at fault here guys; don't paint as a bad guy an innocent party until proven guilty..

What percentage of people do you think own the phone vs lease the phone? I would wager the vast majority are using it on JUMP or JOD or just a regular lease. If you are leasing a phone, its certainly "not yours to use how you see fit". It would be great if Samsung would allow those of us who paid the phone full price the option to unlock the bootloader, but T-Mobile is under no obligation to do it for those who lease the phone.

Your name is very accurate.

Also, you seem to be, at core, a very self-centered, self-serving individual. Why would you even present that argument, when an unlock for everyone gives you exactly what you get if your suggestion is implemented? Do you have a need to be one of the only ones with the full bells and whistles? Is it a need to be the cool kid with the rooted phone that no one else has? Is it because you feel more entitled, as you bought the phone outright for reasons of your own, instead of going on month-to-month? I'm genuinely curious, none of this is meant to insult you. I'm interested in the psychology behind people who see things like you did.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Semantics:
I've said already I'm not rooting regardless. I find it ironic the guy who doesn't actually own his phone feels that he's entitled to the same benefits as the people who actually do own the phone. If you want to use words like it's mine to do as I please, then you should at least own the phone before claiming ownership. I couldn't care less about an unlocked bootloader, its clearly an issue for some, but don't try and play me as the entitled one when you are in fact acting like you are owed something you are not. Bernie Sanders fan too I wager.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] brendan802:
Id say that probably about 25-30% own them outright and I understand what you are saying but they use to be unlocked no matter what method of payment you have so why should that change now? If they would unlock just the ones sold outright that would be fine for me and I bet that would be better for the carriers too. Either way they shouldn't change their stance without notice as samsung knows how upset people become over locked bootloaders. I am with sprint for the record as t-mobile isnt available in fabulous rural rutland vermont and I posted to all carrier forums hoping the more noise we make the better for us all.

A promising lead or empty words from a Tmo employee: Real or Not?

Edit: TMobile deleted the tweet by KimB that stated, "it's getting unlocked.."
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] brendan802:
No Im not doing this just for myself I strongly believe that android should stay open the way its meant to be and locked bootloaders are not that. And actually guess what I'm on a month to month lease with sprint but if need be I will go out and buy one outright so I can do what I want with something that is supposed to be mine. Hows that for self serving because I wouldn't get the unlock if they released it right now to paid in full s7 owners. Were you expecting that I bet not. I have never had a single device whether I bought it outright or not that had a locked bootloader and I wont keep one that cannot be unlocked. Douchebag looking to start sh!t with a stranger real nice you dont know me or what I'm about. 24 payments of $30.50 but Im self serving like you thought. No response from the psychologist huh. You know samsung had previously locked phones that they sold as developer editions if you bought them outright just like I said paid in full. I think that none should be locked no matter what way you pay for them. Its like saying if you are paying off a car that you cant put a performance pipe on it because you haven't paid it completely off???

Here is my lease agreement

Rather be a Bernie supporter than pretending to believe that Trump is actually a person you WANT to put in charge of your nukes. But that's me. I don't feel like I should be entitled to ****. Entitled sounds like I'm asking for something for nothing. That's totally not the case. The agreement is signed and contracts me to either pay off the full value of the phone (per Tmobile, who I'm sure jacks the price up by a couple hundred) over the course of two years, while maintaining service with them and paying for that at the same time. It's a CONTRACT. So yes, I do feel like I'm entitled to the same thing anyone else who bought the phone outright is, since Samsung got paid for the phone, and the entity that sold me the device at point of sale proposed an agreement, which I then signed. At no point did I set terms, I simply agreed to them. So tell me, how is me taking longer to pay for my device as offered by the seller inferior to me buying the device outright? Is it a time issue?

All the same, I don't intend to respond beyond this. I may have started this, but I'm also ending it. I never meant to attack you, simply pointing things out. The important thing is we need to make Samsung great again by getting this bootloader unlocked!

P.S.: Sorry you're stuck on Sprint. As an ex-employee and ex-customer, I think we can both agree that's the real tragedy here. They really need to get their data act together.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] YaKillaCJ:
Your comment is very mute. When on a Payment plan, U still own the device. U simply agreed to pay it off later. Case in point, if U stop making payments and just leave, U are charged the remainder balance and/or its tacked onto your credit. This is also why TMobile will sim unlock your device after 3 months. Tmobile doesn't do leasing anymore, they do payment plans and their is a difference. Even jump involves giving back the device, and getting the remaining balance + difference added to a new payment. Why because, they see the device as yours. Because it is yours. Whether you want to unlock the sim or bootloader is up to you. But don't fall into that ignorant settling mindset that U don't own what U purchased. Service providers job is to provide text, talk, web. The device they sell you is a courtesy present to entice ya on said service. What's next, I buy a tv and the manufacturer blocks certain cable companies or tell me I can't view certain game system on the screen because I'm still paying off best buy. Would U except that then?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Semantics:
There is nothing moot about the point I was making. If you lease a device you certainly do not own it. You have agreed to pay the pay the full amount over time and when you pay it off it then becomes yours, but if I go to the store and pay 769 dollars for the phone, then I own it. You can call it a payment plan or a lease, that is semantics. If it was up to you whether you could unlock the bootloader or not then it wouldn't be locked in the first place. There is a reason the phones sold for full price by Samsung have an unlocked bootloader, because the people who buy them actually own that device. The service provider also has an obligation to try and make a profit and that becomes difficult because too many noobs try to root their phones then brick them, then make up some excuse to get a new phone without having to pay for their incompetence. Just like any kind of fraud, it increases price for the rest of us. If you stop paying your bills then your phone won't work. Stop paying your EIP for a few months, then try to stick an AT&T SIM in it and see how that works out for you. You own the phone right? The TV analogy doesn't work on any level whatsoever. They won't ban your IMEI on a TV. They sure will on a phone. Stop paying the EIP and you've essentially stolen the phone.

So basically you're saying that since I have 15 years left on my mortgage, I don't own my house? Since I have 2 years left to pay off my car, my car doesn't belong to me? I'm not sure why a phone is different. Sure those things can be repossessed but as long as I make my payments, they belong to me and I'm able to modify them however I want. New bathroom in the house? "Perfectly fine." New sound system in my car? "Why the hell not?" New ROM on my phone? "Hell no, you entitled little child!"

Eh hem. Anyway... I signed it some time ago and just checked this thread out of boredom. Only 127 remain (as of March 20 at 5:38 EST) but that begs the question... will it matter? The goal is set for 1500 but (and excuse my ignorance here) what happens when we reach or exceed that goal? No way Samsung is going to be "Oh. 1,500 customers (out of how many?) want the bootloader unlocked. Might as well give them what they want now." Serously. Now if it was 1,500,000... then maybe they might listen but let's be real here... will this petition actually mean anything? Not trying to bring everyone down here... just facing reality.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] chiikko561:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Binary100100:
Why would they lock it down like this in the first place? What did they gain from it? I don't believe that Samsung is really bothered by 1500 people out of the millions sold. If they were, they would have done something by now. I hope that I'm wrong though. XDA-Developers is no stranger to Samsung. I bet $100 that some of them even read these posts and simply shake their heads at our relentlessness. Let's remember that Steve Kondik was a software engineer for Samsung. I suggest that we reach out to him to see if he might be able to point us in the right direction.

Maybe I'm just dumb or hard headed but I refuse to give up. I seen a guy in the Gear S thread put full android aosp on a Tizen watch not even made for android. Another locked down Samsung but then again I believe even that had an unlocked bootloader. I still feel like we can manage something. Too many smart individuals here. I also know for a lot of devs it's easier to buy another device then to battle Shamsung
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Binary100100:
Oh I'm not giving up. I'm being patient. I just don't feel that running to Samsung with a list of names is going to pursued them to reconsider. Instead, I think that we should hope for a clever developer to discover an exploit. If Samsung sends an update unlocking the bootloader before that happens. Then... cool! But I'm not holding my breath.

FYI, I'm hopeful that John Legere agrees with us that unlocking the bootloader is more beneficial for the device but look at it this way:

Unlocked bootloader = bricks

Unlocked bootloader = possibly sim unlocking

Unlocked bootloader = faster data connections

Unlocked bootloader = tethering options and other methods of service abuse.

What does unlocking the bootloader do in favor for T-Mobile?

So will even 1% of the S7 users on T-Mobile network begging, pleading and crying be worth the change for them?

Like I said though, I hope that I'm wrong.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Superguy:
Then again, if the impact is that small, how does allowing the devices to be unlocked harm T-Mo (or any other carrier) for that matter?

It's not like an alternative of getting a 935F is going to be barred from the networks. If any abuse is going to happen, it can already happen with one of those. The only thing the carriers are missing out on is a sale for their device.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] chiikko561:
It sucks most of us are being stopped from unlocking our bootloaders because so many people don't want to pay for Internet in their homes. SMFH. I have used Tether one time in the past 5 years. It's weird because I would assume anybody dishing out for this phone would have enough money for home Internet but I guess some are going way out of their budget for this device.
