Please help

No problem bruh. Press and hold the power button for about 30 seconds until the phone powers off.

Download the Stock 4 files for the phone from Sammobile You can always download a similar model like the SM-G920F(Galaxy S6). Just remember which version/region update you had.

Download the latest version of ODIN load the files all (4) on the options tick the "Phone Bootloader Update" and do NOT tick or untick anything else.

Press Power, Volume down and Home at the same time until the screen turns blue. Press volume up to continue. On ODIN make sure the ID:COM box is blue and connected. Then click "Start" and let the phone do its thing.

After it downloads the phone goes into first reboot and the ODIN will read PASS. Unplug the USB at this point. Let the phone install the software. It may restart several times and take 15 minutes or more. Only touch the phone when you get the language welcome screen.

If you need help msg me. Good luck��

i CANT FIND THE RIGHT REGION AND VERSION ON SAMOBILE IN THE UNITED STAES AND MY VERSION IS THE UNLOCKED VERSION

Still using mine, no issues. Barely gets warm when charging.

Alas, it looks like Verizon will suspend my service after Nov 25th sometime if I don't return it. THey have already refunded me all my money as well without me asking for it back. I would have been happy to keep it and take my chances.

Note 7 Problem - please help if you can, please

Hello

I am newbie here with no proper experience [ I flashed mobile with success once but it was years ago with NOKIA e90!]

I have Note 7 exynos UK VODAFONE and I did flashed it with older OEM firmware [ to bring it back to 100% battery], I downloaded from sammobile than recent one on my mobile [ limited 60% battery]

I unchecked re-partition

I used AP file there

all went fine with ODIN v3.11.1 all pass !

but once mobile started I have big message on my screen which does not disappear [ see attached photo]

unfortunately, the process

com.android.phone stopped

I can click/press OK on screen below that message, but it reappears again and again

I tried to flash it again but now ODIN says fail and something about PIT [see attached photo]

I would appreciate some help or tell me what steps I should take [ apart of surrendering phone to place I bought it from!!!]

regards

M.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] CerveCesar:
Yeah, nice. I think you needed to load all 4 files since the bootloader and the modem may not be the same as the older ap file. Try again and let us know

Please update if you get success in downgrading your N7 firmware, it will be big help.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] xxxMJTxxx:
SUCCESS! please comment

Yes I did finally but I am not sure if I did it right way.

However steps were as follow:

my mobile is samsung galaxy note 7 SM-N930F Exynos

1. I downloaded 3 files of OEM firmware Vodafone UK from sammobile dated:

2016-08-19

2016-08-29

2016-09-26

as my mobile got 60% cut exactly on 2016-09-26 so I assumed as method or deduction that this firmware has battery cutting update in it so i did not use it

i was also not so sure about 2016-08-19 but I sort of remember when I got my replacement mobile from Carphone Warehouse it HAD only white battery icon [ being replacement unit anyway] and when I turned it on to network it updated itself to green battery

so following above I believed that only firmware dated 2016-08-26 should be right for me

I decided to take risk and then continue to:

2. downloaded APK package disabler 6.3 from someones link left on one of treads [ PM me if you need it]

3. moved it to SD card KEEPING SD CARD AND SIM OUT OF MOBILE

4. downloaded ODIN 3.11.1 and:

5. Extract (unzip) the firmware file

6. Open Odin v3.11.1

7. Reboot Phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)

8. Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin

9. Add the firmware file to AP ONLY!!!! [ I am not sure if I did not made mistake here!!!]

10. Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked

11. Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes

mobile restarted with error on main screen

unfortunately com.android.phone has stopped

I run to turn OFF my WIFI at home my mobile was registered with

I googled for answer but did not find any so I

press home+power+ volume up button to get to recovery mode [ it takes about 10 sec to get there still holding all buttons]

I did WIPE CACHE PARTITION

it did not help

I WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET!!!!!!

and yessssssss

mobile turned on and i have immediately message that it is trying to update itself with samsung update but

it is not connected to network as I turned off WIFI at home and simcard is out

I put into slot only SD card used 6.3 package dissabler to disable:

- Software Update - com.sec.android.soagent

- Software Update - com.wssyncmldm

- UrgentFWUpateSensorHub - com.samsung.firmware.sensorhub

- UrgentFWUpateTSP - com.samsung.android.firmware.tsp

- com.wssyncmldm

- com.sec.android.fotaclient

- com.ws.dm

- com.samsung.sdm

- com.sec.android.soagent

and result is a fully working [ I HOPE! ] mobile as before please look at photos attached

plus I installed battery temperature app from play store and set to alarm me if temp go over 45 C degrees [ as before temp never went over that during heavy usage]

phone is charging to 100 percent without any problems or poping up information

I am only not sure if all what I did, i did correct especially that I only flashed AP file to mobile and about 14GB with updates of storage is taken by OS!!!

somebody said I need to also flash additional CSC, BL, HOME [ which I did not] but I am not sure

thanks

I see you solved it. Do you have wifi calling in the stock menu?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] xxxMJTxxx:

no I don`t have it and I never had it in OEM firmware installed before

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] ccsuk:
For your curiosity and mine you could install an app called phone INFO samsung on play store. It will show you what csc etc your running now. You may find although you updated ap the csc file is from your newer version of stock rom. I think it the old kernel inside rom that gave you the 100% battery again.

Btw I may have missed you posting about this but I'm not sure without a root you will be protected forever re 60% update.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] xxxMJTxxx:
Thanks for reply yes I do have that application but when I go to phone info these areas are empty there

---------- Post added at 06:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:35 PM ----------

I did download kernel from Sam mobile website this is the one I flashed into the mobile however I'm not sure if I done it correctly because I did flash only AP file!

How can I reply to you with my screen photo?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] CerveCesar:
So is not to confuse others. Wifi calling and other data related benefits will be "unique" to your Phone Carrier and Locality. So if you have for example TMobile. Then your Modem needs to be that of Tmobile. You may have to check sammobile to find the 4 files and use the modem to your locality and carrier using Odin to flash it.

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Oyeve:
I use my Verizon Note 7 with a tmobile sim. So I haven't gotten any update from either and even if i run a manual update it won't because it looks for VZW servers but being a tmo sim is in there it fails. My Note 7 (first one) never even got warm and this replacement never gets warm. Until either VZW or TMO shut it down i am keeping it.

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] NIKKOTUASON:
I've contacted Samsung Canada numerous times they keep telling me I need to ship it to either the seller (who isn't responding to my inquires on eBay) or ship it to Samsung Singapore which is out of the question since my local Canada Post, Fedex, UPS and even DHL doesn't want to deal with it. So I've kinda of lost hope and dont want to waste anymore time out of frustration. I'm not having the best luck with this...
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Chippy_boy:
Well right now, I can see no point in returning mine. I am very comfortable with the perilous risk of spontaneous explosion, and since the phone works perfectly and entirely as I wanted it to when I bought it (apart from GearVR, which admittedly is a pain), then there's no need to return it.

Of course should Samsung get even more offensive and start blocking the phone, then the situation may change. But for now, with no "carrot" and just "stick", returning it is unappealing. If they want me to put up with an inferior phone for several months, perhaps they would like to make it worth our while after all the hassle and inconvenience they've subject us to? It seems they are more than happy to look after their domestic customers in South Korea, but everyone else is expected to just suck it up? Well no thanks. Not yet, anyway.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] JFIX:
stil using it too. I hope we could flash it with ROM NOUGAT
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Rick GM:
Still going strong with package disabler pro doing its job. A few exchanges with Samsung who want top dollar for an S7 (8 month old phone!), won't compensate for all the messing about, won't compensate for accessories purchased from others, won't entertain the Korean exchange offer, won't do a doorstep exchange ie hand over Note7 and simultaneously receive the S7 Edge etc. On that basis I've got no intention of handing over......unless Samsung somehow disable it (which I guess would be unlawful).
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] billp68:
Still using my sm-n930fd from ebay purchase. Not one issue, not getting hot while charging or heavy usage. Thankful for package disabler pro 6.3. Still have 100% charge.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BozQ:
I guess if you don't mind missing out on the refund by Samsung, able to circumvent the 60% battery limit and don't travel on planes too often, then I suppose you could risk using it.

Got a refund from Samsung and moved on to LG V20. Nougat is amazing so far. But I'm definitely missing the N7's camera.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] OkayGK:
Hope i can keep my N7 till N9 comes out. Love it, don't need anything else
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Chippy_boy:
Battery is charging just fine, I have a spare phone if I need to fly anyway and I'll be getting a

full refund

when I am ready. So good to go :)

I've had this argument with someone else: Deciding to keep your phone for a while, doesn't absolve your seller of any and all responsibilities under the relevant consumer protection laws, in perpetuity. The law doesn't work like that. If my phone becomes unusable, it will mean the seller has failed to meet the requirements of the Consumer Rights laws and I will be entitled to a repair or a replacement (with another 100% working Note7). Since they won't be offering that, they are legally required to offer me a full refund if I want to return it, or partial refund if I want to keep it (which I would not, since it would not be working).

Here in the UK the law is even more clear regarding the 1st 6 months of ownership: "If an attempt at repair or replacement has failed, you have the right to reject the goods for a full refund or price reduction - if you wish to keep the product. No deduction can be made from a refund in the first six months following an unsuccessful attempt at repair or replacement.". They have already unsuccessfully replaced it, so I am now legally entitled to a full refund, certainly under end of February, and arguably beyond that.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Ryland Johnson:
What a performance! Samsung Korea have made a total **** up of this recall for many owners. I said from the off that different countries have responded in different ways. There appears little logic or continuity of exchange from country to country and even within countries different outlets have made different offers?

I become more and more convinced as time passes that now Samsung has the vast majority of the Note 7's returned 'perhaps' they are going to 'relax' and count on faith that there will be no further incidents? This is all theory of course, I have zero idea what makes the management at Samsung 'tick'.

Is there no way you can get Samsung Korea involved either by letter or email etc?

Have you contacted e-bay to complain? If you have what was their response?

It is absurd for Samsung Canada to suggest you return your phone to its original source knowing no airline will allow such a parcel? Remind me, didn't Samsung Korea make a statement saying regardless of where one bought the mobile the country of residence would accept the return? I am sure in some countries this was the case.

It appears you could end up with a very expensive door stop?

Such an uncoordinated recall is not in the best interests of Samsung, not in the least. So sorry to learn of your predicament.

Ryland

BTW if you used paypal you could also file a complaint with them. Same with your Visa card etc.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BozQ:
I'm just curious, over there in the UK, is there a certain period of time you have to return the phone for a full refund?

Over here in Singapore, Samsung SG is giving us up till end of November to get the refund. After this window, it's at your own risk. With no support or refunds.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] doc_loco:
I've been given a full refund from my carrier but I still have the phone. They have told me that a courier will be in touch to collect. I have now moved to a different network and have had the phone sitting there for over a month. (O2 UK).
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BozQ:
That appears to be the case.

It seems like Samsung Korea HQ just sent out a memo worldwide, telling all its region quarters to handle the situation.

I believe, in the US, there are several models, locked down with their specific carriers. And you could exchange for the S7, S7 Edge or other brands of phones.

Here in Singapore, we do have three carriers. But this recall was handled entirely by Samsung SG, without involving the carriers. We can get full refunds for the Note 7, and official Samsung accessories, like the cases and battery packs.

Alternatively, we can do an exchange for the S7 Edge only. And a SGD$250 cheque. (I will do the conversion later) But frankly, it is nonsense. I get more money from the full refund than to exchange. And to make matters worse, I think Samsung SG is offering refurbished S7 Edges, and their Facebook page is in a meltdown of complaints.

Samsung Malaysia appears to only offer refunds and no exchanges.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Chippy_boy:
I guess the laws are different in different countries, but here in the UK, the legal obligation lies primarily with whoever sold you the phone, which may or may not be Samsung. Most people here in the UK buy their phone from a phone shop on a contract, and not directly from Samsung. The UK's laws don't require any manufacturer to offer any sort of warranty at all, but if they do offer one, then it must be clear and easy to understand and the terms offered are legally binding.

To answer your question directly, neither Samsung nor (to the best of my knowledge) any of the vendors here have put any deadline on returns. However, if they did, those would be legally meaningless and unenforcible. If the phone is not up to the standards legally required, then the owner is entitled to the remedies provided by UK law. The vendor cannot get out of that by claiming that some arbitrary deadline has expired. That's probably why they have not given one.

FWIW, Vodafone here in the UK are sufficiently useless that they still have this on their website:

You could not make it up, could you.

Full refund global cut off date is rumored to be 12/31/2016. Well pass the buyer's remorse period and all of the sent notifications!

At least that is the chatter in the US.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Chippy_boy:
You can't change the law mate. The law in the UK requires a full refund without any deductions for products that are faulty within 6 months of purchase and after the seller has attempted and failed a repair or replacement (as is the case).

Samsung policy is one thing, but you'll find wording in there that says something along the lines of "this does not affect your statutory rights". They would be breaking the law if they told UK customers "no refunds after 12/31/2016". Just saying that, is in itself, illegal.

I am sure it's different in other countries, which is why they can't have a global policy.

http://www.trustedreviews.com/news/samsung-wants-to-sell-refurbished-galaxy-note-7-phones-apparently

Anyone seen this?

Any truth I wonder?

I was told over 2 weeks ago (out of the blue) I would receive a call within 2 days from a local service centre to arrange an exchange but I still haven't received a call.

Could they be compromising with the 400k+ customers still using their's + the environment impact of destroying 2M units.

Not that I'm bothered I want to keep it and since my network have never been interested in replacing it and although sammy have taken a interest more recently things have definitely gone quite.

Maybe 'agencies' as they say in certain countries those without reason for concern (uk biased) might consider an arrangement with sammy.

If there's is any truth in this we should be able to buy back at reduced price :laugh:
