[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] tazbo28:
Its absolutely tragic that this is happening. I really wanted this device to be my go to for the next couple of years. Its my first phone since the Note 4 was released and its a beast! I guess in the race to create a flagship like this Samsung has finally cut too many corners. It seems to me that the inherent design of the battery and the chassis just aren't optimal. They should have spent a bit more time on the battery enclosure and possibly reduced the battery capacity slightly to compensate for the tight tolerances. Im not even really sure that would have done anything to help. But anyhow, I think the rest of the community will probably feel the pain. I have already started looking at other devices, leaning (for the first time in 8 years) towards another iPhone. Or I can go to the Pixel xl. Everything other than the Note 7 released this year has been such a let down though.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] DeMi-GoD:
I'm in the exact position bro. Wow off topic but I just took my phone in the shower with me and obviously it got soaked and now the loud speaker sounds all distorted...
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] tazbo28:
For sure! Yikes, I believe that steam and heat actually causes the rubber seals to loosen a bit. Its one of the only ways that you can actually get water damage on these devices other than taking them too deep in the water. Sorry bud, Im sure you can still give it back though when/if you decide too. lol ;)
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] DeMi-GoD:
So it's not normal for the loudspeaker to sound like crap after? It seems like it's back to normal now.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] borijess:
Yes it is normal until it dries out.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] nuclearrage:
quite normal , happens every day for me , I just try to put it in a different spot to not get the speaker so wet.

Also , this new kinda pisses me off. I had the original note 7 with out any heating or battery problems. I waited an eternity it seemed like to get the "new" note 7 and have not had one signal issue with it. I love the phone and like many here , I don't want a different one. I have had the hair dryer a little to close to it putting on a carbon fiber wrap , and also while trying to put on different film screen protectors. I have used samsungs quick wireless charger and anker quick charge 3.0 car chargers and still no problems. it gets a little warm while quick charging but no more than when playing a game. I am staying with the phone , and this time I don't know if they have a second recall , I might hold out. Don't want to go back to note 5 and don't want to wait till note 8

If another recall happens, I am looking at that v20, not water resistant but I am not planning on getting the note 7 underwater any way.

RIP NOTE 7

All major carriers will let Samsung Galaxy Note 7 owners trade their replacement devices for any other phone

https://www.google.com/amp/www.thev...6/10/7/13207438/att-ending-note-7-sales-rumor

I believe the carriers have had enough and wasted enough time and resources on the N7. And why would they be willing to keep updating a device they may abonded. The damage has been done and it's going to be tough to undo at this point. Mine are well prepare to move on at this point.

Hopefully Samsung gives us prior note 7 owners a nice deal to reel us back in when the N8 is released. And no, a free memory card won't do it for me. I was glad the day I got my replacement, I was thrilled to put all the recall fiasco behind me and finally settle in with my phone and daily tool. I am not looking forward to picking another phone and going through the new phone game again this soon. I have had hours and hours at best buy from the N7 alone in the last few months. Now how do you think the carriers feel. I bet they got little or no compensation too. I don't blame them for washing their hands of the N7 weather the new issues is valid or not. I am still baffled at how all this went south so fast. It's is sad for sure.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] chowdarygm:
Don't know when the AT&T official statement is going to come out and not sure on which device to switch to as I always like Samsung devices and love the Samsung Pay feature (I am actually using this feature a lot), but cant go to a device (S7) which will be outdated in next 3-4 months when S8 is announced.

But also customer care rep confirmed that I can exchange it and he left a note also in my account but store reps are rejecting any such news and not accepting to change the phone as of now.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] ProStreetCamaro:
So far I am glad I decided to return my note 7 and keep this iphone 7 plus. It is my first iphone and it has been great so far. Incredibly fast and smooth at all times. The only thing I miss is being able to customize the phone and the amoled display and thats it. I hope everything ends up working out for everybody with Note 7's. It certainly is an incredible phone. It is a shame samsung is having these issues and I bet this drives them to quickly push forward with a Note 8 and S8 with even greater features.

Another replacement reported to go up in Taiwan.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] Mayonesa:
Damn it.... I think Samsung should give free Note 8 to all who replaced their note 7s and now have to deal with this again.

Not sure what im going to do. Use my Note 5 again for a while or jump to another phone.. I would go v20 over the pixel.

I'm not shocked. A lot of reps were slow to find out about the first recall.

You would think they would have a way to send a company wide text to alert them or advise them to read their e-mail.

Because we all know managers are often slow relaying information to employees.

I have a pounding headache.. more aggravation. I do not want to have to swap this again. Hope some inventory mix up or fake.

Well I will just enjoy the device the note 7.

Playing the probability game 2 in 2 million.

That is not issue.

Another recall means another crippleware firmware push.

It would be nice if they had a little more supply chain management. Maybe the problem could be localized in some way.

Maybe the flawed batch got shipped out accidently, got put in safe boxes and flashed with the safe firmware.

Shoot....

On the last link posted...Why would the buyer refuse to give his phone for inspection?

I would guess, in his mind, he is afraid of loosing proof, because he wants a big compensation pay check.

This is why i want to see what Samsung does. They need to almost give them away to those of us that have had to deal with this mess from the start. The least they can do in my opinion. Going further with the note 7 at this point is sketchy as you stated.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] b0Ne83:
Following this thread. Just spoke to AT&T and you can keep the phone until the phone you want comes out. Looking at the pixel. However I'm curious to see what Samsung is going to do before turning it in. Note 7.1 sounds good to me
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] ShrekOpher:
I am going to wait to see what Samsung does for us as well. I doubt they will just abandon 2 million customers. Especial Note line early adopters. (They are some of Samsung's most loyal customers). I would be willing to switch to an S7 edge if I could exchange it for an S8 in a few months without added cost, or maybe they will just swap the Note 7 out for an already completed S8. I'd even be happy with a swap for an unlocked Note 7S exynos with stock firmware and updates straight from Samsung.

My biggest concern with staying with the Note 7 is that it may lack software support going forward. I'd be super pissed if something that cost this much never gets updates to even Android 7.1. If they push out unlocked models to everyone and promise software support I'll probably stay with the Note 7 Recallx2 replacement model.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] Mayonesa:
Dont know if it has been posted but Samsung stop producing the Note 7 already
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] cordell12:
after going through the first recall, and being told the new devices are "safe" i was happy with sticking by the Note 7. when the first report i thought, ah its fine, devices going to melt down. but now seeing 7 of them, and one of those sammy knew about but was attempting to keep quiet, i have finally had enough. between all this and the locked bootloader, sorry samsung. i retuned both my Note 7s this morning. I had done the buy one get one at ATT, and was allowed to return them and select LG V20s, also as buy one get one. believe me it wasnt easy to do, the Note 7 is beautiful, the sleek glass, the whole thing just screamed high quality device. it also screamed time bomb or grenade, lol.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] Suntzupa:
I just replaced mine with S7 Edge. Bye Note 7. :(
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] ShrekOpher:
It may be wise to hold out until a 2nd recall is official. This being an absolute disaster for Samsung I am holding out hope they offer some type of apology gift to Note 7 users. That is if you have a backup device you can use for a few days/weeks.

I think the key here is to not make a rash decision unless you have no other options and are concerned about your safety.

they had a demo unit in the store, i was just going to get Galaxy S7 edge's until I wondered over the the LG wall and messed around with it ;)

well since I had given my Nexus 6 away already I am stuck using a backup Nexus 5. kinda sucks cause this devices battery has seen its day, lol

to add some info...the ATT guy said they are done with the Note 7. they will not be bringing it back, and are fed up with the hassle just as much, or if not more than we are. i understand where they are coming from as well. this go round took nearly 2 hours and i didnt even leave with devices this time. the major hang up we had was one of my Notes had never been active on the line it was assigned too. so if you are returning and put the phone of a different line, make sure you power it up on the correct sim before returning. it had something to do with terms of service not being accepted. as for what the rep said, take it with a grain of salt. though walking into the store, you wouldnt know the Note 7 ever even existed :eek:

Well as I have to accept that I just can return it, its getting really depressing after having the best phone I've ever had, and having to give it up, I guess I will take the s7 after all, but what bothers me is that in like 5 months there is probably going to be an s8

Okay. So Im on the ATT 2 year NEXT plan. ATT will be happy to replace my N7 with any other phone. I dont mind dropping down to the S7 edge but want the stylus/bigger screen etc, which likely will be on the next gen phone Samsung will release early next year. I dont want to get locked into the NEXT plan with the S7Edge and not be able to get newer phone. No other phone looks comparable to me, and i dont want to go back to my old LG G3.

Im going into ATT store today, but has anyone been told by ATT that there will be a final date they WONT be taking the N7 back in exchange anymore?

Meaning if I can hold on to my N7, until the new Samsung phone comes out, and then do an exchange without a penalty, that is what I want to do.

Thanks
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] borijess:
I haven't heard of any final date. I believe there will be one cause the longer they stay on the street. The harder it becomes for Samsung to move on from this. I personally will trade mine in when I find a phone that I like and does not lock me into a contract. I am looking at the one plus 3 and the axon7.
[AT&T Note 7  Questions & Answers] sharkattack99:
I was told it was a possibility but wasn't given an exact date that it could happen, just that it's possible which i find completely messed up and was a little pissedto hear too. So i hope its at least till the LG v20 comes out that's what i want to swap too.

Just a quick update....

I contacted my ATT rep and am still waiting to hear back.

I contacted Samsungs customer service. They first advised me to take the phone back and turn it off. She then told me that there is no official date for the recall of these phones to end, however when the recall date is up then Samsung will not be liable for any issues/injuries associated with the phone. She also said that the carriers will not be giving anymore refunds/exchanges when the recall date is up. She said they will post the dates on their website when they determine them.

She stated Samsung will not be pushing out any updates to the phone or support it. However, she said Samsung will not do anything to disable or shut the phone down in the meantime.

IF this information is accurate, then I plan to keep the N7 until the last week of the recall, then go switch it out.

Again, Im hoping this information was accurate.

Ill update when the ATT rep calls me back.
