Finally got my v2, decided to just walk in to my local store. Got tired of waiting for a csr supervisor to ship it to me. Remember i had shipped defective n7. Store just put me on another eip and took back the s7e loaner, no box or accessories. Now even though ups delivered the defective one almost 2 weeks, they haven't removed it from my account. Now i have 2 note 7 eips.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] dallen5:
I don't think so...the Note 7 isn't even on T-mobile website.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] mgbotoe:
Call them they did that with my jump return and charged both the note 5 and note 7..I raised hell. Cause for one I kept the device per them going keep it cause of note 7**** and that I will NOT BE CHARGED. Had it on recording. The eip was removed the next day
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] tnick84:
To thoughs of you who have a negative dollar amount on your accounts...i would suggest that you pay your normal bill amount this month or you next bill will be 2x the normal. I was just told by CSR that they are doing the correct adjustments on next month's bill...the whole loaner process has everything screwed up. I had to call in because my local store didnt even take off my loaners. Idiots! Just a heads up folks.

So I've had my V2 device since the 21'st and all had been fine but I just got this message. Wtf! Any ideas?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
Did the message persist, I wouldn't assume it's because you have a battery issue from the jump though. Probably just a little gremlin.

I'd restart and see if it happens again.

Also what charger were you using, how long had it been in the charger, how charged was it. Were you using it?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] barfingmonkey:
Not a good sign
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
Its good if you consider it's the system doing what it's supposed to when a battery issue arises.

I've seen that screen before on other phones prior to the recall, don't think it's tied to the "exploding battery" issue.

I finally got my note 7 replacement Monday. The process was some time consuming since the representative wasn't too sure how to process it due my defective note 7 was already returned to the store and also was given a loaner phone. What I noticed with the packaging is how it seems like an open box item if it wasn't for the T Mobile sealed. They slapped a new imei sticker on top of the old one on the box itself. I did verify the note 7 replacement was good with the imei check on Samsung website. The other part it's the phone itself full of smudges. The clear film had bubbles on the front and even light scratches. The back was worse as far as smudges all over the place. Good thing the phone itself was in new shape and no scratches or dents on the bezel. I did the update but hadn't put my sim card yet since i just received a screen protector and case for the phone. I did have it install all my apps which is around 130. The phone itself got warm on the update but after doing a factory reset after the update it stayed cool during the apps downloading. Normally phones for me would get hot during this process. Went with blue this time from black. Kinda having regrets now since the all black in my opinion was much nicer and goes well with all cases.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
I'd offer to trade you if the rep hadn't laid mine down after taking off all the plastic and slid it across the counter and scratched the back. Like seriously bro?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] j0a0a7:
damn that sucks I told the rep not to activate the sim card since i had my moto g4 with me. I did open to inspect it since I did read of someone phone being all scratched and dents on the bezel.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] aznmode:
I hate it when reps say "don't worry you will get a notification once the new replacement are available". I just got this today. Umm just a few days too late and no stores have them in Stock anymore. Thanks to this forum we are all very much up to date.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
Yeah it's ridiculous. He insisted on skipping the setup to make a test call. Nevermind he didn't have to remove all the damn plastic film to do that and maybe just maybe I would like the new device experience all over again.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] RaymondPJR:
Not believing your of all people tolerated that!
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
Lol well I saw it happen, small slide like a half an inch. I told myself it couldn't be that bad right. At least the time I saw I don't think it could be that bad.

Apparently they use their counters for salt and sand sculptures after business hours.

Plus I put these guys through the ringer when they told me they would be shipping me a Note 7 in 7 days. So got that sorted out and one held for me.

Toss it in a case once he makes the test call. Pull it out at work to wipe it down and see the scratches.

I actually did call about it and they said they would exchange it but not until they officially start selling them again.

I got shipped a defective N7 when I pre-ordered mine. Shipped out on 8-22 and phone has yet to make it to warehouse apparently, I'm still being charged for 2. SMH!

You remember what the shipping label looked like.

Apparently they are a 3rd party shipper that go through usps, Why? Idk.

Usually they use UPS.

I took a picture of label that I thought had the tracking number, but I can't use it on usps web site.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] jroq562:
I turned in my note 7 on the first day of the recall. After about two hours of confusion they finally told me to choose any phone in the interim, I suppose technically it's not a loaner phone, so I'm wondering if I'm going to run into any problems exchanging it for a new note 7?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] chispas109:
I never heard of a 3rd party shipping carrier so i m not sure what's up in your case. In my case, i was emailed a ups return shipping label for the defective n7

But the csr supervisor called me yesterday and told me they received it and took it off my account. So while i had her on the phone i asked about that so famous free tablet that i received during the promotion so she tells me that tablet was free only if a qualifying plan was selected and that i don't have any qualifying plan so i said well i was told at the time it was a free tablet with the plan that i currently have on it. In the end, she went all the way back to the august notes on my account and found the notes left by the rep so now she is like this is all misinformation that you were provided but i m gonna take care of this for you and i m gonna remove the eip from your account. I checked my tmo account this morning and tablet eip is completed and paid off. Now one thing i forgot to ask her about the refund for the note 7 v1 taxes and down payment.

[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
I think the 21st was just a date so they wouldn't get anyone's hopes up on buying one until the threshold for recall is met to some degree.

I mean heck they are hemorrhaging money right now. It's in their best interest to sell as soon as they are allowed to.

I hate to be that guy but my phone has been hotter as of late, much hotter on average than my recalled model. Today the battery life has been terrible. I dropped from 100% to 31% in 4 hours, with one hour SoT.

Don't update to new firmware if you want root. I guess they are calling development dead on this device. Thanks Samsung. Guess I will be leaving this brand for another. What a shame.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
I couldn't imagine this is a surprise for everyone. With the bootloader being locked and only the chance event of the sprint software getting leaked AND working on other builds.

The only way to get a Note 7 and pretty much ensure you can root is to buy international.

Hmmm well im rooted, with n7v2 with the new baseband/ modem, no problems....most of you seem to forget this phone has been out just a short time...jesus give the devs some time
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] twe90kid:
and the only problem with that is..

- NO VoLTE

- NO Wifi calling

- Ebay banned users from selling N930F/D
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
I get that, and for some people it's a non issue but the only definite path forward if the goal is to have this phone and root.

---------- Post added at 11:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:53 AM ----------

Baseband and Modem are one thing, remains to be seen how well system changes can be ported over with our current root and flash methods.

Then you also have to consider what will happen with Android N when ever we get the update.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] elementalx:
Idk how. Last I saw note 7 v2, with new PI4 update doesn't have root.

Just dont accept the update. Freeze the package that handles updates so it won't force it on to you. Then use the provided root method for the previous build.

No, Samsung uses rollback protection now so you can't ever go back to a compromised firmware.

I'm trying to do a v2 to v2 exchange. Had two different people call the local Tmobile to make sure I wasn't crazy.

Both times they said they have blue in stock.

One of the sales people said Note 7 sales would only be for people opening new lines (whatever).

I walk in and dude is like nope, we don't have any. I said well thats funny because I just had someone call and they said you told them you had all colors in stock.

He tells me oh, must've been because we do have blue but its only for warranty returns (recall).

Beyond irritated.

I ordered the Black Onyx version earlier today. They gave me a ship date of 08/18/16 - 08/19/16. I was really, really on the fence about blue coral. That's why I've waited so long to order because I couldn't make up my mind. Finally settled on black. So then I call in and the rep decides to tell me how awesome blue coral is. Lol. But the ship date for it was 08/23/16 - 09/06/16. So I went with black, which was what I wanted before I saw that damn blue coral. Man that phone looks beautiful.

By the way, for those of you who haven't experienced Samsungs latest generation of devices, like the S7 Edge, your in for a treat. I love phones and use both Apple and Android, I know, I'm the devil. Lol. But besides hating the fact it had a locked bootloader, when considering all factors, the S7 Edge is the best phone I've ever used and I've used a lot and the Note 7 appears to top that. That's just my opinion though.

[Waiting Room] T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 7

UPS, FedEx, USPS or any other courier service deliver all days depending on shipping type. It depends on the shipper on what service they use lol. Delivery on weekends are more expensive.

T-Mobile ships using UPS NEXT DAY AIR SAVER which only delivery on weekdays. So they have to ship on Thursday to get on Friday. If they ship on Friday, it'll be delivered Monday even though it's overnight shipping because the Air saver option only delivers Mon to Friday.

Yup, cheapskates!

That's kind of subjective. I don't need a helmet to ride my bike but it would help well in the event of an accident. They're called accident for a reason.
