They didn't limit the batt capacity, they limited the charging speed. If they crippled the phone entirely it would be illegal, and they'd lose a HUGE amount of customers. However, lets say it WAS the batt charging rate. ALL of the manufacturers released the replacement devices WITHOUT the updated firmware.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] BozQ:
https://www.google.com.sg/amp/s/www...s-at-60-percent/?client=ms-android-sonymobile

They did limit the charge to 60%.

Unless you're referring to something else.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] force70:
I don't think that is correct, how do you explain not being able to charge past 60 or 80% if its only speed.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] PhoenixJedi:
I have a replacement unit, updated verizon firmware. It goes to 100%. I installed CPU-Z, and its charging the battery to its full capacity. However, pre-updated firmware, it charged faster.

In the end here's what I think, there are people in the US who have replacement units that have exploded. From what I read, quite a few of them are REFUSING to return the phone or exchange the phone. Explain that? The only GOOD REASON to keep a completely destroyed phone is if it could possibly be powered on and they can find out it was tampered with.

I also say theres another possibility. There's been incidents with USB-C cables in the past.. cheap cables.. (the kind you buy in gas stations and pharmacies). They've caused the ports to get damaged and devices (of all types) to explode because wires inside are hooked up incorrectly. How do we know that this wasn't caused by someone using a faulty third party accessory?
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] BozQ:
Oh of course the replacement unit charged to 100%.

But what I meant was Samsung had the ability to release a firmware, specifically for the original units to charge up to 60% only. And with an option to charge to 80% if you know the risks.

My point is, if Samsung can release such a firmware, they can do it again for stubborn diehards like us who refuse to surrender our replacement units and limit to charge to maybe as far as 30%.

That being said, I did notice the charging current was controlled a little slower with the last firmware.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] PhoenixJedi:
If they did that and crippled the phone you'd be well within your rights to sue them for millions. They're not allowed to disable a device that you paid any money for like that. Still, look at the evidence so far. Samsung CANNOT reproduce the problem no matter what they do to the phones. USB-C has had problems with faulty third party cables (not being wired properly). People have been trying and failing to root the units, and may have continued to use it with a compromised firmware installed that may have affected charging rates, and the ONLY video of the Note 7 supposedly exploding shows a woman bringing a still SMOKING device or SOMETHING in her hand over to a guy she has sleeping on her couch. We never see what the device is. When a Li-Ion battery explodes, you don't want that thing to be in your hand, and considering how the pictures of the phone looks after burning, why the hell is she still holding it and walking around the room while it smokes? Yeah, something's fishy. Beyond that, many of the users who had phones that DID explode refused to return them to samsung or have them replaced. THAT in and of itself smells fishy to me. There is NO REASON to not return an already destroyed device to the manufacturer for investigation unless you DID SOMETHING TO THE DEVICE that they can prove.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] BozQ:
1. Can we still sue even if an official recall is already executed? I don't live in the US, so I don't think that applies to me.

2. About USB-C, that was one of those factors I suspect might be the culprit.

3. You brought up an interesting point about the Honolulu case. How did the woman hold on to a smoking device by hand?

But as for these affected users not surrendering their device to Samsung for investigations. Really good points to consider. It's 5am here and I don't have the time to gather all the reports. But it does seem like Samsung is having difficulties trying to retrieve said devices to conduct an investigation.

Here in Singapore, Samsung SG just made the exchange and refund programme. But I'm in no rush to exchange it. I can wait a little longer. Besides, the S7 or S7 Edge just doesn't cut it for me.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] PhoenixJedi:
1: yes. They're not allowed to sabotage a device you own just because they recalled them. 3: NO IDEA!
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] californiarailroader:
If the government deems it a safety hazard, yes, they are allowed to do that, YOUR rights end when the rights and safety of others is endangered. Face facts people, the Note 7 is done, and it's not coming back, regardless of your opinion on this, there will be NO further support from Samsung or the carriers, and if the CPSC (Federal Government) does a 2nd recall, your rights on this end, and if you attempt to resell it, you will be breaking the law. With that said, move on, pick a different phone or wait for the next one, but getting upset over this will not bring it back.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] ilordvader:

The United States has issued a second official recall. This quote is from the CPSC:

Samsung has received 96 reports of batteries in Note7 phones overheating in the U.S., including 23 new reports since the September 15 recall announcement. Samsung has received 13 reports of burns and 47 reports of property damage associated with Note7 phones.

Canada (Health Canada) has also issued a second recall. Here out of 39,000 sold (22,000 pre recall one, 17,000 post recall one). There have been 4 cases.

So, official numbers from the Governments involved are 100 cases in North America with 27 involving "safe" batch 2 devices.

[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] br0adband:
The word you need there at the end of that sentence is "yet" because that's the most relevant aspect: it hasn't apparently happened again as of yet.

But, since you made the statement, answer this:

Do you know this for an absolute incontrovertible fact, that nobody on the planet with a Note 7 has had any more problems with their device just because you haven't seen a new picture, a news story you didn't see before, or perhaps yet another video hoping to go viral over this and make someone a few bucks from views? If not then, well, we simply don't know if reports are being made at this time or over the past few days as Samsung doesn't publicly make such information known, it would just create more of a problem than already exists.

Just because you don't see yet another website trying to viral off a new image or video doesn't mean that reports aren't happening. Just because we live in a world where anyone practically anywhere at most any time can post something online that is nearly instantaneously broadcast worldwide for any and all to see doesn't mean we won't see a complete torrential flood of such images or videos in the next few days.

It's not a question of "Why hasn't this happened again for the past few days?" as much it's a question of "Ok, when will this happen again because we all know it's going to and this story is far far from over..."

Haven't people figured that out... yet?
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] jah:
No absolutes in this world. On average even some iPhones have flames. From millions sold and unknown charging methods and general abuse any phone with a sealed battery can be made to have issues. I am just surprised that no issues reported in the few days when had one a day before. Why can't I make an observation in a public forum?
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] californiarailroader:
Just return it, get another phone and move on, it's not worth the risk or trouble. I miss my Note 7 too, a LOT, but I know when it's time to fold.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] BozQ:
After much deliberation. I'm going to let go my Note 7. Looking forward to LG V20.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] ryant35:
Verizon cleared out what I owe on my Note 7 so I could upgrade and get a new phone. I got my S7 Edge yesterday, when I return my Note I will get the $100 credit and the $80 or so I paid in taxes to me.

So I wonder if I should just hang on to it, not using it and maybe I could sell it on eBay to someone willing to take the risk?
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] br0adband:
According to the CPSC recall notice for the Samsung Note 7:

So, basically it's a Federal offense to sell a Note 7 in the U.S. - eBay will delist/remove the item as soon as they discover it and it could cause issues with your or someone else's eBay account for attempting to do so. I'm not speaking about any other countries there, just the U.S. (as eBay is a U.S. company and they typically follow the same practice across all their worldwide domains).

You might find someone locally to dump it on but then again using something like craigslist or even a local classifieds section in a newspaper doesn't protect you from the buyer being a LEO (law enforcement officer), you just never know. :p

Not one Note 7 had any problems here in the UK.

I really do feel that the Americans have blown the few issues the Note 7 had out of proportion & now we all have to suffer by handing our note 7's.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] californiarailroader:
It's our fault now? Uh huh, riiiiight. [emoji57]
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] @home:
Well you guys did the most bellyaching about the device.

Like I said not one problem here in UK.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] br0adband:
One could argue that because more Note 7 devices were sold in the U.S. than anywhere else and more failed in the U.S. (that we know of) then yeah, we do the most bellyaching as you put it.

As for "not one problem here in the U.K." there's no way for you to know that 100% for sure - not everything that happens in the world appears as a blog post or news story on some website online, it's fairly obvious that most of the reports of Note 7 incidents were made directly to Samsung itself worldwide and therefore the general public has no clue exactly how many there have been or will continue to occur because people keep using their devices and not returning them as requested.

Just for the record: there was a report last week of a Note 7 failing in the U.K. that belonged to a Chinese tourist - of course, because the tourist wasn't from the U.K. directly and he brought the Note 7 with him from China it was just dismissed as "not a U.K. problem..." which is of course ridiculous in the big picture.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] @home:
Whatever. It doesn't really matter now. I'm just miffed that the best phone I ever had has been taken away cause a few whinging people had a problem & on the scale of how many devices where sold worldwide it really was an insignificant number that was fueled by the media, mainly american hysteria.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] br0adband:
I suppose that fact that people - and by people I mean people all around the world, not just Americans - were injured by their devices when they failed and some lost property because of the failures (a few cars/vehicles burned up, furniture, etc) has nothing to do with it at all, right?

The fact that you say you're miffed because the best phone you've ever ever had sure sounds a bit personal to me and probably some others as well, as if Samsung did all of this on purpose just to miff you off (so to speak).

That's not actually the case, certainly you can see that, right? When you can take a step back and realize Samsung did the only thing it really could have done it should make a bit more sense from the logical and rational perspective, but if one chooses to stick to the highly charged emotional perspective aka the personal view then of course you'll stay miffed for years to come.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] jah:
I believe Samsung sold over 1 million in the USA and well over 1 million in other countries. Majortiy of issues were reported in the USA. But could be USA has a more active news media.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] kat3k:
Possibly, and also because we Americans LOVE to litigate. Samsung made a radical "better to be safe than sorry" sweep. They would have been damned if they did and if they didn't. My fantasy wish would be that they find an answer and back off on the recall. Not likely though.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] br0adband:
Why is it people don't seem to be considering that maybe Samsung did actually discover what the problem is between the time of the 1st and 2nd recalls and it's not something they can effectively fix on >= 2.5 million devices leaving them with no realistic option but just say they're all defective and ask people to return them.

Maybe they discovered that no, it's not actually a problem with the batteries: after trying the second cells provided by ATL the failure still happened which would tend to indicate the problem isn't or might not be with the batteries so then they would have shifted the focus on the internal circuitry of the Note 7 itself and if - since we're speaking in hypothetical situations here - they found something wrong that they cannot fix with a simple software patch but instead would have to recall all the devices anyway to be able to fix them, the most logical solution that might provide no further problems for them (or the least possible) would be to recall every last one of them worldwide.

They might have discovered a potential repair, but even so and even if they did fix >= 2.5 million devices when they shipped them back out what would they do if those fixed/repaired devices started exhibiting yet some other problem? What, a third recall? That would not only be unprecedented but it would literally ruin them forever on many levels if it happened so, they chose the path that to them looked like the safest way to navigate through this whole pooch screw.

Talk about lawsuits, good lord, they'd go out of business in a short period of time. The only logical course of action was to just say "Enough's enough, the Note 7 is dead, let's move on..." and that's what they've done.

Can people honestly not see this as a pretty likely scenario? :eek:
