[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Reji007:
I did a pre-order for a Note 7 on Aug 4th. I saw in the forums that others were getting the promotion for the free Galaxy Tab E, so I called tmobile two days ago. A very polite rep looked into it, but said that she couldn't help me without me cancelling my Note 7 order first (which I had no interest in doing). After the call, tmobile sent me a survey, and I answered honestly that their inconsistency with giving some the promotion (even when they ordered on Aug 3rd or Aug 4th, without having to cancel their original order) and not to others was just poor customer service.

Today a manager at tmobile customer service had seen my survey, and wanted to discuss it. After I explained what had happened, she was extremely helpful in getting me onto that promotion. The way she explained it was that tmobile would send me the tablet for free, and that I would see a charge for $10 a month for monthly service, and also a credit from tmobile for $10 a month for 24 months, making the tablet and service "free" (I do have to add an extra line on my account). The only difference to my order from others that I've read about here is that I only get 200mb of free data, while others have said that theirs comes with 2gb. Either way, I'll be on wi-fi or tethered to my mobile hotspot, so it isn't a concern.

Got my Tab E last night and sent it back this morning, I decided to keep my Tab S2 and use the $240 (2yr 2gb contract) towards the new Gear S3 watch when it comes out.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] tnick84:
I finally got this thing rooted

For those who would like to root follow these instructions and makes sure you have oem unlock on in developer options.

1. With ODIN 3.10.7 flash TWRP 3.0.2.0

Here

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24665509702140789

2. DO NOT let the device reboot. You need to boot directly into TWRP by holding pwr+vol up+home as soon as ODIN is finished flashing. You gotta be super quick.

3. Swipe to allow modifications

4. Once in TWRP flash SUPERSU- 2.76

Here

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24665509702140790

5. Reboot
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] aznmode:
I assume it's on contract for 2 years?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] RaymondPJR:
I like the way you think, but sent it back????? If I didn't want to use mine I'd just sell it or gift it and continue to pay for the for the $10.00 data plan. The sim card must be tied to the tablet?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Android1126:
I was able to get the Tab E, totally free. Didn't even have to add a Data plan. Was able to get the free 200MB Data SIM. All I had to pay was the tax, which ended up being $14.04. BTW, I called in for the promo two days after ordering my Note 7.

No hidden fees (as some pointed out in the waiting room thread). I've been w T-Mo for so long, I know how they work. They have a follow up set in the system, so the full price is subtracted after the first billing cycle. Again, no Data Plan (not like I will be using it places where wi-fi won't be available). Not to mention, the 4GB (2GB + 2GB) of free tethering I have on mine and my wife's phone.

I know it's not a beast or anything, but hey, for 14 bucks, you can't go wrong, Perfect for my kids and their videos. T-Mobile has been good to me!
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] mike28:
Nice how were you able to get it without a data plan?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] danon.brown:
Finally got 2 tabs since i got 2 phones. Not sure why you get the run around when calling tmobile. Took me 4 calls. the tablets themselves are free. What's not free is the data line attached to them. If you get the tabs you can switch the lines to On Demand which is $10 /month. you will get a $10/month credit. This comes with the 200 mb data for tablets. You would then be getting the tablets completely free of charge. See attached image.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Android1126:
Yea, so basically what he said below. I always play the loyalty card. and get sent to retentions, or some other high up. I told them I didn't want to pay a single thing, since that's what was advertised, and then got the free SIM without the 2GB data (200MB free instead). All I had to pay was tax.

Cool man, did you have to pay the tax as well?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] heldc:
Are you *sure* they didn't cancel and recreate your pre-order? Cos I just called and was told that the free tablet deal didn't start til the 5th, and the only thing she could do would be cancel my existing pre-order and place a new one.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] KillaHurtz:
Thanks for the heads up !! I tried getting CC to give me a credit for the 2gb data they want you to sign up for, but they declined day of purchase (Saturday). Called in today and asked for the On Demand lines and they did it and waived all fees. No out of pocked cost for tax or anything else. Thanks again !
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] danon.brown:
It takes multiple tries and a rep who actually wants to Work. I pre ordered the first day and was able to get it. It just took a while.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] tnick84:
Totally agree. I got it in the first go but others had to call multiple times to get a rep who was actually helpful.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] bmarkoff:
I'm on a JOD lease, and the CC told me the galaxy tab E promo is only for purchase of the galaxy note, not a lease. anyone get this done through the lease ?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] danon.brown:
Yes. It's possible I got 2 of them. You just have to keep trying.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] tnick84:
Yep! Call them back.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] umair239:
Anyone who is claiming of getting the tablet for free needs to reassure if that's actually the case. I went to a T-Mobile store and inquired about the tablet. I was told I will get the tablet for "free" but they'll have to add a 2GB plan which costs $20/month. I will get $10 credit every month meaning I would still be paying $10/month for 24 months & the tablet will be "free" which sounds nothing more than BS. This means over the course of two years you'd be paying $240 per tablet. If that sounds "Free" to anyone here then let me tell you, you're mistaken.

Unless there's a 200MB plan that costs $10/month, which I wasn't notified about by the store rep, in which case $10 monthly credit will take care of that. Then it's free but from my experience, that's not the case.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] chakra:
Damn, you are 100% correct, I just called them back and they said yep it will add 10$ a month to your bill. then they said that there were some other mistakes on how it was added, and offered no restocking fee on a return. Going back tomorrow.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] KillaHurtz:
Tell them you want to change the lines to "On demand" the plan is $10 for 200mb, but they give you a $10 credit for it. Comes out to being free....Samsung pays the EIP for the tablet, and Tmobile pays for the data.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] umair239:
I'll give that one a try. Not keeping my hopes up though. Most of T-Mobile reps not have a clue about their job
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] KillaHurtz:
Ask for loyalty, and then a supervisor. Explain the drama from previous reps and kindly (very important) ask for the On Demand lines. After that it should be cake. Keep in mind they can only add the promo within 14 days of purchase of qualifying Samsung devices.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] tnick84:
Has anyone rooted the Tab E and not debloated any apps? If so, could you copy system/app and system/priv-app and send them to me? I debloated mine and then deodex ed the rom. I would like to create a completely untouched deodexed rom for anyone who wants it.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] firechicken25:
I would but i already downloaded some apps, unless that doesn't matter?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] tnick84:
The apps you download go to a different location. I need those two folders that have the stock out of the box apps...
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] firechicken25:
Ok, uploading now to dropbox now. take about an hour, half hour per folder. Will pm you the link
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] chispas109:
So far 2 people i know haven't been able to find someone at tmobile to get the tablet offer even after telling about the on demand plan. They just respond by saying that plan no longer exist. Go figure.[emoji19]
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] umair239:
I know man. I've had a similar issue with my promotion too. I ordered two Note 7 on my account and was expecting to get my hands on two free tablets but failed terribly. So far mentioning the on demand plan or speaking with a supervisor hasn't worked for me either [emoji19]
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] mangee1234:

So is this just people trying to get one free since we already have data plans?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] nyflyguy:
I bought two note 7s on Saturday and paid for both outright. Still waiting on them to ship, but does anyone know if I can still take advantage of this promotion? I wasn't even aware of it until I just saw this thread...

I likey the 'greyed out" version of XDA used for the Tab. It's so easy on the eyes!
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] nyflyguy:
I called and, apparently, since I placed my order on the 20th I missed the promotion by 2 days. The promo is now for 6gb of data which is $20 a month. [emoji20]
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] KillaHurtz:
Make a stink. Mine are finally arriving tomorrow.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] danon.brown:
You can do it yourself online. Just go to change plan/services for the line attached to the tablet.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] nyflyguy:
Trust me, I did. I've spoken to a few supervisors as well and they all want me to pay for the 6 gigs every month. They keep saying that it's not possible to change the plan to on demand because that is not the promotion, and the lowest possible data plan is 2 gigs but that doesn't qualify either. Any other tips?
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Android1126:
Hey, sorry for getting back to you so late. I'm not sure, I like to think it has something to do with the fact that I've been with T-Mo for 15 or so years, but really I just called 611, and asked to speak to a manager, who was able to hook me up.

Something to keep in mind, there are a few call centers in the United States, and a massive one (or more), in the Philippines. They have both been good, but as of late, I've noticed the Managers out of the Philippines call centers are just really cool and good with people. I just said, 'look, this is what your website says, I want!', and after clacking a few keys, he just shipped the Tab E, as if I bought it, then subtracted the value of the Tab-E from my account. So, even though it was because of the promotion, I didn't actually DO the promotion. I just got the Tab E for free (aside from the $14.04 in taxes that couldn't be avoided).

Cool thing about the free 200MB SIM cards. No cap no overages, it just stops after you reach your 200 MB (a T-Mo rep actually told me that, it usually just keeps going after the 200MB anyway (throttled), though it could eventually stop for that month).

I figure hey. it's on Wi-Fi anyway, if I ever need it for the kids in the car, perfect. Hope that helps, although that promo is long gone.

---------- Post added at 02:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:22 PM ----------

Sorry realized, I had already replied to you.

I should add, there are a few different ways people had gone about the Tab E promo. I verified on my end, that the tablet I received is 100% free. No Data plan, nothing. Case should arrive by Friday, someone here, or in another thread sent me a link that includes case, screen protector, and stylus, for like 10 bucks or so.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01I77YRQU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I think this bundle is perfect.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] RaymondPJR:
Gahhhh, pink and black, no way! Not seeing any other colors yet!
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Android1126:
LOL.... lovely colors

Haha, I hear you man! It's for my young daughter mostly (keeps her away from Mommy and Daddy's expensive phones). So the big fat bulky pink and black + screen protector + stylus, is perfect for her. My eldest is only 2 years old, and that stylus will be perfect for her coloring (scribbling), in Kids Mode, hopefully the screen protector is halfway decent, because with kids, it's all grubby little fingers (no matter how many times you wash their hands).

I have to wipe down the screen of my 4K TV every day!!! She's learned not to touch the TV screen when I'm around, but as soon as I'm out of sight, she's nose to nose with the screen, interacting with her cartoon friends on the TV using her little fingers. haha.

So in my case, it took 3 billing cycles but they had to manually take my tablets off EIP and paid off. Since it is not a customer fault when provided wrongful information on promotions. Was it easy? No, it took me about a week after a constant twitter discussion. Hey i even twitter Legere.

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marksimps:
Hi all

Been having some issues with a Tab3 that was stuck in bootloop - it would turn on for anywhere upto 10-20 seconds then reboot, and repeat... I tried going into setting and selecting factory reset and it wouldn't allow it.

I then used Odin to flash TWRP recovery then flashed a custom ROM (can't remember which but it was completely de-bloated and had bare necessities). The bootloop continues and still not fixed.

When I boot into recovery I can select all options, re-partition, format, wipe cache/dalvik, etc... But even though I've wiped everything in recovery when I reboot the Tab everything is exactly as it was, as though I hadn't wiped it.

I've tried flashing a new recovery and stock ROM with no success... So, I'm wondering if anyone has ever had this problem and how would you recommend I go about fixing it?

Cheers
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marksimps:
I've tried using Odin using re-partition, nand erase all, phone efs clear, PIT file, stock ROM, recovery, etc...

It's not hard-bricked as it's booting up, but for some reason it doesn't wipe or flash to stock and I can't find the solution!!

Any help is appreciated :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smia:
I would like to use my Z1 Compact as acceleration sensor for some physics experiments.

To get some info about resolution etc, it would be nice to know which exact sensor is used.

adb dumpsys sensorservice

only told me it is a "BMA2X2 Accelerometer/Temperature/Double-tap| BOSCH".

The problem is BMA2x2 seems to be a generic driver for several different Bosch sensors.

Any further helpful commands / ideas?

I had some further hope finding something in "dmesg" which has not been the case.

Thanks in advance :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] odie3:
So, when running media player are you suppose to see the Album Art? I would assume the Blue Box I am seeing is where the art could be displayed but of course I only see a blue box in the upper/left and scrolling information in the bottom of this box about the mp3 that is playing.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] lpaso:
yes you're supposed to see the cover.

Has the mp3 you're playing the cover in its tag ?

If you transfer your mp3s using WMP on your computer, do you have the covers ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] odie3:
Yes, I see the Album art in Media Player and in iTunes on my Vista PC. Also, all other meta data is seen on the Tilt by going to the properties of the mp3.

This is how it looks in my folder on vista.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] lpaso:
How did you put the mp3s you're playing on your tilt ? Did you use the sync function of WMP ? If you've just transfered it using explorer, it may not work because I think WMP is using a little picture of the cover instead of the corresponding tag in the mp3.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] odie3:
I only direct copied it... that could be it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Alemaker:
yup-

to get the album art-ya gotta synch it through media player
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] odie3:
You are both correct, after using Media Player to sync up "Dark Side of the Moon" I got album art (I see the little jpg file it places in the directory with the mp3 files). That is rather stupid but at least I know now.

Thanks for you time and helping with my stupid question.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] a7t7d:
Most of the mp3s I direct copied kept their cover art (manually added in itunes) but 1 or 2 albums didn't. The only thing I can see in common is that the albums that didn't bring their cover art were the albums that itunes automatically found art for. The albums I added the covers manually kept theirs. Funny.....
