I don't post too often on the threads here but I was speaking with a Tmo rep over facebook over issues I have been having and he did mention an update coming to the S7E.

"Its fine Alex you don't need to worry about that I know you just want to address your concerns, especially since it is about your money so I can completely relate to that:) The refund to your card may take up to approximately 3 days to show up on your end so don't worry we got you. I know that we should be releasing an OTA update to your device soon so just keep a lookout for anything. Just like any phone that we have ever released we must make sure that the updates are fully optimized before launching those updates to make sure everything runs as seamlessly as possible. *DonH"

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] sputnik767:
No, bone stock phone, no root. I have disabled some things via the built-in application manager, but nothing major. Facebook and stuff.

The problem is that when I turn on AOD or the edge night clock, it shows what it is supposed to show, but it also dimly lights up the entire display. This happened out of nowhere, one night when the night clock came on, so did every pixel. I was on a cruise ship that night and can't think of anything that I could associate it with. Never got the phone wet BTW. The weird thing is, the edge thing where you can see notifications, news ticker, stocks, etc, with the rest of the screen off, works perfectly fine. This persisted through several firmware updates and the latest AOD update. I have tried factory reset and even flashing new firmware via ODIN to no avail. There have been very few reports of this happening (maybe a handful total) and at least one stated that Samsung replaced his screen and problem solved.

In any case, it's been 14 days since I got the replacement approved and still no shipping estimate. I am wondering if the Galaxy Note 7 fiasco is pushing people into the GS7E, hence the demand.

My Xperia z5's corner has been dent , I do have a warranty but I saw on a thread on sony care website on z3 forum that I need to replace the whole frame and this is very costly as am conserving money to buy Huawei watch so I can't buy it , so my question is will this affect my phone's waterproofing capability ? although my phone pass the pressure test but i need to make sure , and can i replace those corners by myself ? or i need to get my phone to the sony customer care ? will this void my warranty ?

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rmrl2008:
Just got off the phone with ZTE technical support. They confirmed that there is no option to set a boot passcode. This code is used in conjunction with encryption. So I asked if the phone is even encrypted. He said yes. Guess I'll just have to take his word for it since this phone doesn't show that info. I wonder why that is? Every phone I've had has shown the encryption status plus given the option to encrypt the SD card. I'll be returning this phone since my work requires the boot passcode. What a miss for a "flagship".
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] biglilsteve:
I agree. ZTE's UI is definitely questionable. Not a fan of it myself.

I'm going to ride out my 14 day Best Buy return policy and see if this phone is really worth it.

If you do return it, grab a OP3. I have one and it's phenomenal. The UI is sooooo good (because it's basically stock) and it has very useful customization additions.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rmrl2008:
Ok thanks. Have not considered Oppo. A rear fingerprint sensor is a requirement for me though. Just feels natural. Don't have to think about it. I don't have any real complaints with my G5. I also want to try out the Asus Zenfone 3 Deluxe. Hopefully that will be released soon.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rmrl2008:
Haha you meant the oneplus 3.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] biglilsteve:
Yeah I meant the OnePlus 3. The sensor is on the front, but I must say...I like it better. It's not hard to get used to it and it's so convenient to unlock and use the phone while it is laying on a flat surface. I really miss the sensor being on the front now that I have the A7.

It's an excellent phone. If I could take Oxygen OS and put it on the A7, it would be a dream come true for me.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] jonathan3579:
My biggest complaint with the OP3 is battery life. It is absolutely abysmal for a 1080P screen.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] biglilsteve:
What is your definition of abysmal? I get over 4 hrs SOT each day plus an average of 30-40 mins talk time and an hour of Spotify. Never need to recharge from morning to bed time.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] jonathan3579:
Exactly that. When a QHD screen is getting more SOT, there's a serious issue. Hell, even the G5 I owned with it's QHD screen and smaller battery had better battery life than the OP3. People give the phone too much of a pass.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Richrod2k16:
No encryption and no password to "start" the device

I been in contact with ZTE support several occasions via email and phone (I even have a support ticket)

I am unable to use phone as I need to add cooperate account but won't let me because has no password start at start up option.

Still no solutions by ZTE!! now, they want me to send them a video of my issues when they have no clear anwees. I may have to return phone , sad because I was beginning to like it.

Anyone else have issues?

Good stuff :good:

Some S5s are fine with normal ODIN TWRP flash, some need battery pull
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharza:
Hmm I assume some models are simply overwriting recovery with the one in-memory on softboot? Or what else might be happening there? Now well - I'm a lesson richer here, and for that I'm grateful, now onto marshmellow and see whatever peculiarities Google has decided on this time :)
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Not 100% sure, but I believe it's some sort of self protection built in, the original recovery is still on the phone, custom gets replaced on reboot from stock backup, which would be handy if your recovery partition got corrupted for whatever reason, but a PITA for flashing custom

So flashing TWRP is working, but the phone replaces it with stock again on the next boot unless you pull the battery to prevent it happening, meaning when you boot immediately into recovery once you've replaced the battery, the phone hasn't had the chance to replace it with stock, and I assume it only tries to replace it that first time, as it won't do it with subsequent boots

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Tungsten c:
You know guys I don't get it. Everyone in the world gets an unlocked phone form get go. Here in the US probably the biggest market they have we get S**t. Go figure
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] onepiece:
Let me help Tungsten c "get it".

In the US, gov and business are working hand in hand to "milk" you to the maximum degree possible. Carriers lock down phones and in the process lock you to one company....even if you pay full price for the hardware. Gov turns a blind eye to this Consumer rip off. Why do carriers do this? Because they can get away with it and they work hard to ensure its next to impossible for a manufacturer to 'offer for sale' an unlocked version.

EXCERPT: An oligopoly is a market dominated not by one, but by a small number of players. Because the number of players is so small, serious price competition doesn’t happen very much. Instead oligopolists tend to do sneaky things like put their heads together to figure out ways to raise prices, protect their turf, and limit consumer choices. They typically deploy armies of lobbyists to accomplish these goals. Some of these lobbyists go on to careers as regulators or vice versa (more on that in a moment).

As a side note...in some Asian countries its ILLEGAL to sell a LOCKED phone!!

Dude i got it long time ago. The problem here is not the carries but the dumb ass consumers. I will not purchase a phone I cannot root it is a matter of principle. There is nothing absolutely nothing a phone has that I need if I cannot root it.

That is why I am looking for a root able version or I will keep my Note 3 and purchase a new battery for it.

The note 7 without root is useless to me .
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] onepiece:
Agree!

Agree that "passive consumers" are a big part of the problem... and...

"passive consumers" are EXACTLY what the carriers/manufacturers want. SHEEP to be herded and fleeced!

You are aware more and more companies are embracing the concept..."You don't really own the phone (or whatever your purchase) you bought. You've merely entered a long term agreement with us to use it, not own it. You can't root it because your program might be better than ours....and we can make you pay for that improvement YOU came up with in next year's model.

Just another example of corporate control over consumers with gov acting as their 'muscle' or enforcement arm.

Thank goodness for sites like XDA that help the cause for ROOT and getting us those things the carriers &/or manufacturers want to keep from people like you, me and XDA disciples.

Actually of the about fifteen phones I have imported, I have only needed to use the warranty once. It was a HTC One M7 and I they actually repaired it here in Denmark at no cost, even thu I had no invoice and it had only Hong Kong warranty. The did so of goodwill, so I would not count on it to always be the case, but it was a known problem (purple tint in camera) so that might be why.
