No. On the contary, He should not. Advise that his post should be read with an open mind. It is objective rather than subjective.. yah, he may have input his personal thoughts.. but everyone is free to their opinion.

Mind you, I'm not siding him as I dont know him personally. Just pointing out.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Ryland Johnson:
Have you managed to resolve your situation yet? Hope you manage it.

Try your hardest to keep an open mind even though, like me, you are very upset about the Note 7 situation.

I fear though regardless what we write here the Note 7 is history? I hated to even write that. :(

Let us know how you get on and 'play nice eh' lol ;)

I put an Apple in a microwave once. The thing exploded all over. Took an hour to clean that sticky mess.

Something very iffy about this Boardband, Ryland duo. They're like Batman and Robin. Anyways, I suggest you all check out the new 9300 Update thread. The Note 7 is very much NOT DEAD!
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] SaleZg:
Finally, here are the links:

Rummor said that if you put N7 in microwave it wil explode. Someone like this "tech" enthusiast tried https://youtu.be/K-sQW6WKlLo. IT DIDN'T explode but TWO DAYS after microwave test it just get defected and didn't work any more https://youtu.be/oi0FjqS1Js0. ALL RECORDED FROM SAME GUY. There all also rumors that Apple made sabotage with that cheap microwave gate-NEW MICROGATE... while its obvius that N7 can survive this https://youtu.be/QDCurir7VQk

U APPLE AND MICROGATE- u are done when SAMSUNG TRY TO PUT PHONE IN MICROWAVE....WHO WOULD THINK THAT AND ALSO DO THAT... Europe is good normal people we don't put mobile phone in microwave cause there is no need to do such stuff.... I have allready contact SAMSUNG and provide them with youtube links. They send me email saying : we are extremly gratefull for links and my mail was forwarded to SAMSUNG KOREA and that they will keep in tuch with new information for me.

Oh dear....

And, while not commenting directly on the safety of replacement models, Kaye said: “Consumers should know that one of the remedies is a refund.”
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BarryH_GEG:
That's how this entire incident keeps being and has been blown out of proportion. I read the same article you did. Here's what stood out for me and is pretty much what you'd expect to happen.

CPSC is moving expeditiously to investigate this incident,” agency Chairman Elliot Kaye said in a statement. “Agency staff has already reached out to the FAA and Samsung to gather the facts about the incident. Agency staff will also reach out to the consumer who experienced a serious incident with his phone.”​

Nothing in that statement is the least bit inflammatory. You'd expect the CPSC who blessed Samsung's battery remedy to engage immediately to figure out what happened. What happened was enough to cause an airline to cancel a flight so it was a "serious incident."

You posted the above. The FBI investigates criminal offenses. Some two-bit click-bait website will take your quote and say "according to an XDA member the FBI is investigating the latest incident with a replaced Note7."

And once again the endless cycle of OMG! articles will appear with none of them quoting fact. That's because as we all read this tonight there are no facts. other than a Note7 experienced what appears to be an overheating incident on a Southwest flight this morning. Everything else is just hearsay and people here (including me) drawing conclusions based on that hearsay.

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] stizzi:
I just got caught up. I noticed that the AT&T box said Made in Korea. Weren't the China models originally the safe ones? I just went to T-Mobile and literally bought a new Note 7 at lunch and then came back to my desk to read this. They want a $50 re-stocking fee if I want to return it. I'm a consultant and fly twice a week, every week and this is going to be a huge headache.

---------- Post added at 02:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:57 AM ----------

Also want to point out that I'm a huge android fan, but this Brian Green guy's story seems to check out, especially when the IMEI was verified by the Verge. I think the Note 7 line may get retired if this proves to be a "replacement" model
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] svache:
I agree they're all possibilities, but if any of this is indeed the case, then some investigation will likely show the device was tampered with.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] JSK0703:
I wouldn't rule anything out at this point. it could be 100% legit or a number of things. I just hope it was an isolated incident and not a new trend.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] svache:
Agreed. But this is what investigation will have to determine I guess. Anything else at this time will be second guessing :)

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] krabman:
Something to keep in mind is that not only are many people still in possession of gen 1 phones there are still people on eBay and other sites selling them, I run into them over and over as I try and find a new FD. Find one, do a little research before purchase, it turns out they are gen 1 phones. To my mind this is the most likely scenario, it's a gen 1 phone. It would be where I put my money if i were forced to lay it down.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] LuckyColdJohnson:
I've been using my new Note 7 from At&t for about 5 days now. Love it. GPS all day and VR so I'm charging a lot. Everything is fine on this end. I use the crap out of this phone. Will keep you updated
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] teegunn:
Good investigative work. It doesn't look like a setup or fake claim. From here it will be important for them to find out WHY this phone had a battery problem. If they actually can find out. I mean, any phone could have a lithium battery problem like this, maybe this is just a lone issue and not a sign of a larger problem with the new batteries in the new N7's.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] stizzi:
How is it a gen 1 phone when the IMEI and Box show otherwise?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] B3501:
My bet would be on this being a line battery fault that happens in all phones but who knows, perhaps there's another fault in Note 7s.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] krabman:
I don't think they're legit. Just plain way too much wrong with this story not the least of which would be explaining why someone was magically traveling with a box from a cellphone that they had for weeks along with most of the and most of the contents from said box all of which are entirely pointless to carry while traveling. I was careful to say that this is where I would lay my money if forced. I don't know anything other than the story stinks like a dog turd from every angle ala Cheech and Chong.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] C_LosEvo:
It is serious. Imaging if the guy was using his VR headset thinking hes safe because he got a replacement unit and the thing catches fire? If they do another recall I will be done with the Note 7. I'll just wait for next year model.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] beachletter:
If anyone still have hopes that this is just an isolated case, a fraud, or a misidentified phone (not a "safe" version), don't hold your breath.

There has already been 7 cases of "safe" ATL battery note 7 going up in flames in mainland China, plus an additional 2 cases in Hong Kong. At least one case was caught on security camera. China's state TV has done a whole investigative program on this fiasco and Samsung declined to say anything. Till this date Samsung did not issue any recall or refund for Chinese note 7 with ATL batteries, just kept suggesting it was the customer's fault, promising the phone was fine, and made no effort to provide any evidence for their claims.

Now Samsung is selling these ATL battery replacement phones in the US and other countries. Guess what? The burning continues.

The facts are becoming clear: the real problem is NOT with (or NOT JUST with) the SDI battery. Samsung has no idea about what's wrong, and was completely mistaken about how it could be fixed.

Samsung can afford to make one serious mistake and take a hit in their reputation, but fool the customer twice? It's game over.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] aergern:
Also, why is it just some dink on a flight? Why haven't they been popping left and right for folks using GearVR or whatever? I've heard not one person having one explode in their face. You'd think this would happen and make the news. It hasn't. Out of millions ... 0.0001% had issue and now out of over a million put back out for use by the public .. one goes and it's the end of the product line. All seems weird to me.

---------- Post added at 07:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:48 PM ----------

Actually, the average person doesn't see this. Doesn't care and would probably buy one if they saw it in a store. But that's beside the point.

If the battery was damaged for whatever reason and went into a race condition and he had shut it off .. it would still pop. The phone technically wouldn't have to be on for this to happen. We also don't know if he abused it or whatever. I've seen folks toss their phones from 8 to 10 inches onto conference room tables. We honestly don't know what the deal is yet.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] radioraheem2:
why are samsung fanboys so defensive. the tone on here after a reported incident is always skepticism and dismissive comments.

samsung f***** up the production of this phone. accept it. the Bloomberg report earlier stated that the phone's battery slot is a bit too tight for the battery, because in the neverending effort to put more power into a small body, Samsung reached a bit too far this time.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Brickman221:
People have got to understand, the chance of them blowing up is already low on gen 1, think about it. About 1 million Note 7's were out there and only 90 explosions were reported. (And only about 30 were legit). That already is a 0.009% chance of blowing up, YET Samsung STILL recalled all of them. Most companies would simply shove that under the rug and hide the issue. We should all be grateful Samsung is willing to be upfront with their customers and fix the issue. Now, with the Gen 2 Note 7's, the chance is even lower of blowing up, yet people are still crapping on Samsung? I'm gonna get one, because it's a good phone, and I trust Samsung.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] aergern:
Well, this is my first Samsung since the Galaxy Nexus and I'm not a "fanboy" but a 47 year old man .. not a boy at all so thank you very much. And if logical thinking is fanboyism .. no wonder Trump is so popular. sheesh. And you don't know Samsung f'd up anything. The battery is 50 mAh bigger than the 6P is and that phone is thinner. The S7E has a 3600 mAh battery while the Note 7 has a 3500. So if you wanna be cranky .. blow. Srsly. If you don't care for Samsung or whatever it is. That's cool. Most here have put up logical posts IN A DISCUSSION on the topic. Just click unsubscribe. Srsly. If it irritates you SO much. *shrug*
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] GeorgeP:
The FBI and CPSC are two completely separate organizations.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] radioraheem2:
this isn't the first reported incident. there have now been several dozens, and Samsung's boss himself admit fault and pulled an unprecedented move. yet in every thread on XDA, there are people on here dismissing reports of fires ("it's media exaggeration"; "it affects less than 0.00001% of phones so stop overreacting"; "are we even sure this is legit? it sounds like a scam") or poking fun at airlines for being extra cautious.

to question the validity of one or two "my note 7 caught fire" claim? fine. but people on here question every single one. that shows bias and close-mindedness. what you guys are doing (dismissing claims and accusing the person of lying) is basically victim blaming.

there are people faking injury just to claim insurance which is already a fact , by the way have you seen brian green interview ? he look happy rather then shock to me , who the hell can still smile when his phone went up in smoke before going on a plane and causing evacuation , unless his phone blows up on a regularly basis, still its just for discussion purpose only , no right or wrong , interesting to see this case outcome ..http://www.cbsnews.com/news/samsung-note-7-phone-emits-smoke-sets-off-scare-on-southwest-flight/

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Gkstates:
I actually received my T-Mobile replacement today and it was quite a disappointment. It was very choppy and ran very hot. I didn't even run any intense game. Just restoring my text messages from the old phone. And the screen wasn't as sharp as i expected it to be. Color on the screen lacks contrast but color on pictures taken with camera is way over saturated. I actually switched to Iphone 7 Plus while waiting for the replacement, despite hating the freak iOS, i must say the 7 Plus runs faster and very smooth. I think i'm gonna sell my Note 7. Also have a Xperia XZ coming into the mail. Let's see if it can save my hope for android phones.

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Aimara:
you guys heard about the oculus app causing problem ?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Señor Sjon:
Well, it still is just a phone. Do you expect him weeping about his lost phone? Perhaps he is just relieved he got away from it scott free. And if the event was hours before the interview (not very unlikely), you usually have processed the event in your mind. Besides, there are so many reports about Note7's going up in flames, I reckon you are hardly surprised when it happens. It could also be he got a gen1 phone in a gen2 box. Could have been a mistake by Samsung.

About the box. If he flies regularly, wouldn't he drag the box around to show your phone is safe? Or perhaps he went home in the meantime or had his wife send a pic from the box. It isn't all evil out there.

But I notice phones getting hot while shutting off, the same as with updating. It almost looks like there is no throttling of the CPU when the OS is not active.

<tinfoil> This is done by fans to get removable batteries and get rid of the slippery, scratchy and breakable glass back. </tinfoil>

I just hope noone is planning to make use return our phones again. We bought it so we obviously want it. We stuck with it even through recall. I don't want to return it or have it bricked OTA.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] B3501:
Depends on the outcome of the investigation. If it's still a fault with the battery then I think all new sales will be canceled and all devices collected.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Ryland Johnson:
Out of interest just how many countries or continents have had a Note 7 go pop? I don't recall reading about this situation happening in Europe, Africa nor the Middle East. Is it basically the USA market? Thanks.

Ryland
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] B3501:
It's happened in the UK, just not widely reported. Also happened in Asia, Korea etc.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Maerad:
It's usual that the phone runs hot if the CPU is used with all cores. Till now I didn't see a phone that won't get hot (even the apple ones) if they have to do something. And restoring is - depending on the app behind - a more or less cpu intensive task. If the app has to import the msg per API and cant just copy them over, it needs quite some cpu power to do that.

Not to mention that samsungs software sucks. It's quite better between the note 4 and note 7 but still lacks like the pure android from google. Back then my Nexus 4 was faster in terms of usage then the note 4 with way more horse power. For the screen - it's not as sharp as the S7 Edge, because the resolution is the same, but the display is 0.2" bigger. Well, the iPhone only runs HD 1080 so if the note is already a bad point, the iphone is even worse for DPI. The iPhone has a hard optimized system with iOS, a really fast CPU and way lower resolution - so it's no wonder it's faster or at least feels faster - that's one of the bonus points you get, if you are the producer of the phone and software alone with enough power in the market, to dictate the hardware and specs. Quite easy to optimize for that. If iOS would need to run on so many different devices like android, it wouldn't be much different from it. :)

Anyway - I have the same problem. I waited for the pixel... too expensive for the XL 128GB thing, missing a 64 GB option. Didn't want a samsung again, because I dislike my note 4 (hardware > good, software > sucks), but it seems there is no real chance for me, if I want one of the best cameras in a smartphone, 64 GB space (with/without SD Card I dont care) and a long update cycle...

Note 7 was my last hope, but if that things still burns... well, sucks. And not to happy about the S7 Edge too...
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Ashk91:
I don't know why I feel like there is a huge company benefiting from this, I hate Samsung but this feels staged.

It's too convenient, recalled device, switched off, plane before taking off and in another article it says he switched from note 7 to Apple? That's a joke. My conspiracy theory is that it's all staged and Samsung can't say claim that, so they recalled it.. Or it was true but this is staged.

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] notefreak:
Well, let them prove the pohones are dangerous before messing withour personal property second time around. I won't give it up that easily. How convenient for Apple that all this is "happening".
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Señor Sjon:
While Android has a vast majority here (85ish%) in Europe, we are not treated like a core continent by Android manufacturers (Samsung, LG and even 1+3). The Note7 was retracted before entering general sale on mainland Europe and only had pre-orders in most countries. Those seem to get delivered next week. The V20 mentioned above won't get here before 2017 it if gets here at all. The V10 was januari 2016 here (the Netherlands) and in the UK only past summer.

So that is why you don't read the European stories, hardly anybody has one.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] nomailx:
Dude you should be a lawyer.

BUT... Welcome to the World. That's how news work since eons. And although it may seem "unfair" to you, it's a good thing. Why? Here's why...

IF news weren't spread and exaggerated out of proportion at each step, they would be containable. Containable news would mean that the news could be controlled. Controlled news would mean that Companies would have a way easier time controlling the news. And that's the last thing you want.

This "incendiary spread" you are complaining about, is the last stand of customers, users, against big companies who already control the media. If Samsung was able to contain the first incidents in August, they wouldn't even have made a Recall. (As Apple ignored all exploding phones and contained them as "Individual cases").

So that's the deal now in the World of News: Companies! Behave. Respect consumer rights. Or the first mistake you make, will come back at you stronger!

It's thanks to Forums like XDA, Twitter, Facebook, etc that Companies stay in check. Rumors hurt them way more than anything else cause of Wall Street. And that's a weapon, the ONLY weapon, customers have these days.

So, unless you're a big company lawyer or have Samsung Stocks, next time you read "FBI is investigating Samsung", repost "FBI Investigates probable Samsung Terrorism!"
