He man, how've you been? :good:

I ordered a Note 7 Duos N930FD . It scheduled to be delivered tomorrow so we'll see how it goes.....
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] ekerbuddyeker:
Very interested to hear how you get on on AT&T. Where did you buy it to get it delivered tomorrow?
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] amith007:
I just pre-ordered mine from Best Buy on AT&T. I am planning to to payout the full cost immediately after getting the device. And currently I don't have any contract with AT&T. Will I be able to unlock my Note 7 easily? Will it affect my warranty in any manner?
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] apascual89:
Just got it today. and so far so good. Just popped in the SIM and all good LTE, voice, etc. Tomorrow I will put through the paces and report back.

I got it from https://www.from.ae/en/

They were great in communication and fast shipping.

Can you see if wifi calling works? I'm pretty sure it's no, but I wanted to hear it first hand. If it doesn't maybe it's worth a call to att tech support and maybe they can add it. Also does Samsung pay work?
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] apascual89:
No Wi-Fi calling. Samsung pay is not included in the default apps. I'll play more tomorrow to see.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] ekerbuddyeker:
i briefly owned a note 5 international device without samsung pay. to get it to work you need a ROM from a country where Samsung pay is active. Like US, UK, Australia dn i think Singapore now. At the time the only roms were from countries that hadnt activated samsung pay and therefore the app didnt work. Not the end of the world as there is android pay.

I am really interested to see how you get on with LTE without that band. Can you do a compare to an AT&T device?
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] apascual89:
So far so good today. I drive a lot for work and signal / lte has been working fine. Basically haven't noticed anything wrong with data/signal so that's a good thing. I haven't cancelled my pre order with ATT so I might compare it to that one when it comes in.

Tonight I can run speed test side by side with my wife's iPhone tonight at home. Not really sure if that would help, but I can do it.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] ekerbuddyeker:
Excellent. I'm really tempted to go that route.

My company uses VZW primarily, and I have T-Mobile; I know this supports all of the bands excluding the CDMA ones. Does VZW still rely heavily upon those; will it still work despite not having those bands by chance? I really want a dual sim CDMA/GSM Note, but I haven't found one because they don't exist
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] apascual89:

Ok second day and all good still. Another thing I had forgotten about was that I can use tethering on the unlimited plan with international phones.

I have the Att one waiting for me at home. So I'll use that tomorrow and see if there's any notable difference in day to day usage. I doubt there will be though.

Yes read starting last page or so on my experience with ATT. Works flawlessly so far.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] Pilz:
Thanks for that, but I'm already aware that it's missing the 2 CDMA bands and that's it. My question is will the phone still work without those on Verizon's network

Ok I received the Att one and a few observations :

The color (blue) looks great

Can't use mobile Hotspot because on unlimited plan

Android auto doesn't see audio apps like pocketcasts and audible

I'm definitely sending the Att device back and keeping the international version
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] snovvman:
It's a killer that AT&T insists on a policy that disallows VoLTE, HD Voice, and other advanced features on non-ATT-branded phones. Even the ATT-branded Nexus 6 does not get VoLTE because ATT didn't get to add their code [bloat] to the updated ROMs. I did extensive research on this--unlike T-Mobile, it would appear that ATT requires proprietary code for VoLTE and they provision the service based on IMEI. If your phone doesn't show in their system as an AT&T phone, you're relegated to HSPA when when you are on a call.

I guess AT&T is determined to dethrone Verizon from the evil empire title. Even Verizon's VoLTE will work on Nexus phones... As expected T-Mo's VoLTE works great on Nexus phones too. I do not know how AT&T can sustain this when it is all VoLTE and 3G is a thing of the past like AMPS and other analog systems? Unfortunately, that is a long ways off...

Here is one thread on ATT's forum re VoLTE/HD Voice. I replied toward the end under the same name:

@apascual89, just ordered a N7 Black Onxy from the website you listed. took advantage of FedEx corp account credits (meaning no additional cost to me) to use FedEx Int'l Priority shipping. i'm essentially paying $50 above T-Mobile out-the-door price for its N7 using (an unused) pre-paid account.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] apascual89:
Damn!! Nice man. That saved huge on shipping. I didn't know about that website until now. They've been great with me.

The black onyx is the way to go. The blue looks nice, but I was at one of my weekly meetings today and it felt kinda weird looking at the blue shiny phone lol.

How is it going so far?

I am looking to buy one today I am also on at&t.

Advice, Caveats?

Thanks

I'll be using it on Cricket, I'll also let everyone know how that works out once I receive my 930FD
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] Comp1demon:
I'M so not sure which way to go at this point? This or the official at&t one.

I read that the Dual sim is not really dual sim, it is either 2 sims or 1 sim and a memory card. So if you use 2 sims you loose the SDmard memory, is that right?
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] apascual89:
Yes that seems to be the case.

Samsung pay doesn't seem to be available for this model from the Galaxy apps store.

No issues for me so far, on the contrary I have a few advantages that for me personally make it better than the att version.

Android Auto works perfectly

Mobile Hotspot works with unlimited data

I've never really used Samsung pay so not much of a loss for me there.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] Comp1demon:
Thanks for the reply...

If I can get samsung pay to work on this I will go with this. I really want Samsung Pay.

I will look into that further.

Loosing Wifi calling is no big deal since I never had it as I am on my note 4 still.

I read that you can submit for the free memory card with these phones as long as you buy it before the 28th. SO I can get my 256GB card!!! WOO HOO...

Other than that I just want a really good deal.. $900 is steep and with sams club not allowing me the $150 gift card with the phone, I either need a great deal direct from at&t or I will buy the rose gold one for $789 shipped.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] apascual89:
Keep in mind that the imported devices don't qualify for the gifts.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] ekerbuddyeker:
To get Samsung pay to work you may need a ROM from a country where samsing pay is active. I went through this process on an unlocked Note5. At the time there were roms only for.countries where it wssnt active so even thoigh I found the correct APK I couldnt get it to work

I've almost pulled the trigger multiple times but i think im gonna hold off until it gets a confirmed working root method. however, i guess it doesnt matter considering all the other models will have locked bootloaders and very little chance of ever being unlocked or rooted.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] eyesofice:

is anyone noticing any lag on the note 7 international version with exynos process. i'm already starting to see some slight lag with the snapdragon version
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] ShrekOpher:
The missing bands matter in urban areas it's what the LTE+ runs on. You will have noticeably slower speeds on the FD model. Had the same model on the S7e and regretted it. Way better speeds on the AT&T model. For instance near my house on the international model I get about 10 mbs download. On the AT&T model I get 50 mbs when I run speed test at the exact same time. The 2 missing bands are essential to that high speed data.

If you want an unlocked model wait for the U model to come out, the S7 edge U model works great on AT&T.

[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] mcsenerd:
I've upgraded to the AT&T Note 7 from the 930FD and I note the same as ShrekOpher... not sure if it's just the missing bands or if AT&T is just being their typical jackwad selves and bandwidth shaping non-AT&T IMIEs, but the FD is definitely slower in town side by side on the mobile network.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] sweetboy02125:
Can you use Samsung Pay?
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] snovvman:
I believe your observations but I am puzzled. As far as I know, FDs are only missing Bands 29 and 30. Both the S and N 7 are Cat 9 LTE devices. What band(s) was the ATT phone using when you saw the faster speeds? If they were on a FD-supported band, then [theoretically] there should not be a difference. Were your tests/observations comprehensive and scientific?

I have made similar observations between a Nexus and Verizon-native devices. The Verizon native would see faster speeds. I would like to know why.

Thanks.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] apascual89:
Yeah, I guess it can depend on what city we're talking about and where in the city you are. I'm typically about an hour outside of a major city and used the AT&T version for about 4 days and then the FD version and did not see any difference that I could see or notice in my day to day use.

I wasn't doing speed tests side by side, but then again what matters to me is the day to day real life use and for that I didn't see any difference.

Everyone's experience might be different depending on their variables, but for me I kept the international version and returned the AT&T device.

So far so good for everything. Loving it. Samsung pay is installed beut its says my cards arny supoorted so that is a bit odd. Samsung switched moved everything from the note 4 to the note 7. Camera is awesome. Nice screen. Im using it on straight talk

Take the others.xml from an AT&T stock fw and push it to your current fw. That should get at least volte working.

Why Samsung Pay?

---------- Post added at 02:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:37 AM ----------

That makes sense. I figured the same thing. We were able to get volte working on a non att rom for our s7e by using the others.xml from a stock s7e. Maybe give that a try.

[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] eyesofice:
So far so good for me haven't notice anything missing that I use with the device, Not really sure if I will use Samsung Pay or Android Pay, don't see the need for both on them on the device.

I love the speaker on this, its super loud, took some video of my dog running in a field and it is super crisp. When taking picture there are so many options with settings and filters to use.

It says I have the option for wifi calling/video but I have not tried it yet.

The iris sensor is pretty neat but is sometimes hard to use as not everyone's eyes fit in the frame required so I have had a few instances when I'm staring at it and it says it fails.

I like the built in device manager to help with battery, storage and such.

Hopefully there will be a root at some point to remove some of the apps that came with it.

[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] ShrekOpher:
You will only notice when the tower is under high traffic. It bumps me from the normal band up to band 29 or 30 at peak usage time for my area.

It was not a huge loss on the international version, but if you go to a sporting event or to a big event down town you will notice the difference. Also your average speed with be lower because the speed boost of LTE advanced (LTE+) is only notice if you have bands 29 and 30. I know most cities dying have LTE+ yet but mine does and the difference in speed between the devices was almost 25 mbps faster than the FD model by my house and at high volume events.

Not saying don't buy the FD just making sure people know what they are getting into.

It can be used, it is just missing the LTE+ bands so if you are in a crowded city it you may see slower speeds. It is missing Bands 29 and 30. For a normal user in any city that does not have LTE+ (which is most cities right now) you will not notice any difference.

My N930FD should arrive today. I intend to use it on Cricket wireless.

I hope Samsung pay works right out of the box and I also hope the intermittent lag and random reboot I experienced with the AT&T Note 7 does not exist with the N930FD. If I experience any issue, I'm returning the darned phone. I've about had it with the Note 7. This is the one of the worst experiences I've with any phone right out of the box.

It appears Samsung just rushed the phone to market and phoned in the quality control.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] racinwarrior:
i am using the FD on At&T. Updated to BPH6 right out of the box. No signal issues. My city does not have LTE+ so thats a non issue. I am getting 30 mbps down which is great for my area.

Samsung pay worked right out of the box though promotions are not supported due to the phone coming from singapore. I was able to add my PNC card with no issue..

No lag, no random reboots.

I'm getting the Sm-N930fd also. I'm just waiting for my Att note 7 to sell on eBay. I'm definitely going to the SM-930fd model, now that Tmobile is locked down also, I can't go the route I've done the last few year since att locked down the devices after the note 2.Ive been buying Tmobile ones and unlocking them and using them with att service. Its nice that the att model got rooted so fast but it's not the same as if you need to flash a zip with twrp.Its just more freedom to do what you want with your note 7,especially the price samsung is charging for them. I wish a could get a blue one, it seems the international ones are pretty much only gold, but guess you can't have everything. I'll just get a skinomi.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] snovvman:
I agree. The unfortunate thing, though, is that non-branded variants lose out on advanced calling features. I like having VoLTE, WiFi Calling, HD Voice, Advanced Messaging, Video Calling, etc. There is also the EVS (T-Mo's Enhanced Voice Services). With a generic ROM, AT&T does not permit any advanced features. With T-Mo, some can be had, but not all. For me, there is no ideal solution. Either submit to a crippled/limited root and run the branded phone, or lose out on features.

Because you can't buy the FD model from a carrier, the recall will be dicey.

Samsung are still checking on the Note 7 issue.

They are trying to figure out if it applies to specific batch or model and should have answers within few weeks.

As far as we know, phones made in Vietnam are not part of the recall.

Battery issue claimed on less then 30 phones over 2.5 million units

That is 0.000012% chance, which is very tiny and no need to be worried

If anything would change we will update.

Let us know if you have any more questions.

if your phone part of the replacement program

we will ship it overseas since it's international model.

it will take around 30 days to process and to get new phone

* To install using TWRP manager to flash, even so, displays a message "Something went wrong" and I can't go ahead

* To use Flashify, but as soon as I choose my device on the list and the last image version of TWRP (3.0.2-0), it says "Partition not found, Your recovery partition couldn't be found, you won't be able to flash recovery images..."

* I tried all the methods for installing TWRP as it's shown on the website, NOT A SINGLE DROP OF SUCCESS.
