i had my tytn ii , unlocked from orange and am now using o2, gprs aint workin, dno wots up, iv spent hours surfin the web and entered tonnes of variations of the manual grps settings ie access point name = ... username password . neway these didnt work! phoned o2 they said they dont have the settings to send me. can ne1 help?

:mad: make me happy!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] mmm_ok:
are you running the orange rom?

First piece of advice: re-flash it with the HTC rom.

I think the HTC rom will attempt to detect what carrier you're with and configure the GPRS settings automatically. When I flashed the HTC rom on my orange phone, it did all that for me.

The orange customisations are crap and missing some software.

The only thing to keep in mind is that you must sim unlock your phone if flashing from Orange to HTC rom - but you said you did that already?

Good luck

Samsung has reportedly halted production of the Galaxy Note 7 in association with China and US authorities after several replacement units caught on fire.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] *Hooligan*:
I read this but you know, out of how many million phones have been sold only 8 phones have caught fire. This doesn't mean all Note 7's are bad. In a mass produced item there is some fallout. Now this is a doozie no doubt but at least give Samsung a chance to investigate. I have a Note 7 and absolutely love it. If I have to send it back I will. But I aint gonna go turning it in just yet. It would be different if there were hundreds catching fire. But only 8 out of how many.... This just my opinion though.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] blackhemi4x4:
As of now, it's a temporary stop. Not permanent.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] toastido:
This stop is likely a temporary one for safety until they can investigate all the reports. That way if there IS still a fault they have limited output. If there ISN'T them they can just restart.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] dottat:
8 over what time frame? Curious to see if they rolled the dice how many of these would flame out over two years. I bet enough it would shock most people.

2nd deja vu happening again , now they are dealing with ion batteries not other hardware or anything , dont think samsung wants a third one , one thing i dont understand is why would they recall the whole set rather then recall the battery
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] @Class:
Ugh, how could there be a second issue.

Anyone want to guess at the second issue?

Phone too thin? Part poking the battery? Battery not actually fixed? Different battery issue? Bad batteries made it in? Chemistry wrong?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Batfink33:
It's over. Production won't be started again, stopping production is a massive thing and Samsung obviously know they have a design fault . Samsung will cut its losses and scrap the Note 7 because the brand is now ruined and trust is lost. Very sad.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] koppee1:
I think it's more An economic decision. Until they are sure there's no problem, why continue production?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Batfink33:
If they were confident in their engineering and knew there was no problem they wouldn't stop. They obviously think there is a problem and are winding down. Theyre not going to say straight away there's a fault and "recall", it'll be "were looking into it". The phone is done for.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] *Hooligan*:
I'm just gonna wait and see what the say before I turn mine in. I can always go back to my N4 if need be. Dunno on your question, good point too and what plant they can be tracked to.. If they have multiple plants.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Engineerdude05:
I really love N7 in term of hardware and what Samsung has done to the Note series to make it what it is today minus the problematic battery. Really hope they can bounce back for the N8. Shame that this may be the end of N7. With it, I do not know if there is a point of keeping the phone since halting production can also mean slow and can possibly stop software supports??!?!?

I'm just curious why there are no such cases in the rest of the world???it seems only in the US and in Taiwan ??

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] mankvl:
What ever is going on media is slowly killing the device... even me that loved and wanted this phone for ages are starting to wonder. I still doubt that any of new events are true but company like T-mobile with Apple help are killing this device. They don't need any proof they will be always able to fake an accident and this will be always a hit to Samsung... The best phone in world and with such problem it starts to become the worst... Who knows what will happen I'am still waiting for mine. Ordered on AUG17 and now should get it on OCT17 but this can always change. It's so SAD because with this N7 Samsung would 100% killed Apple and would have a more solid ground next year.

No explosion in EU, yet. Only in USA and Korea. Strange
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] sbuttler:
This. If anything the last couple of weeks made me hate the media even more (if that's possible). Hate is a strong word but there's something fundamentally wrong in our society with the way news are transported. Most of these articles are so phony it screams staging.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] gavinfabl:
Nobody knows the true extent of the numbers. Only Samsung and it's not going to ever reveal the true figures. Even if it says it has. However aggressive anyone feels about the news coverage, certain sites have done a lot to verify their sources. Problem is a large company like Samsung cannot move as fast, plus investigating all the issues is not a quick process.

Regardless of the above paragraph , Samsung would not have done the first recall, now be stopping production temporarily if there wasn't a real issue.

I do wonder why there have been no reports in the EU too. It could mean there haven't been any, and or Samsung silenced any that had arisen. Don't forget not everyone wants to take a photo and upload to social media.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Señor Sjon:
We have 230V with a fixed 'zero' and only Exynos models. Perhaps that has something to do with regards to the quickcharging? But only a few phones are delivered here.

I think the 'refurbished' phones after the recall are actually regular production line phones, but X-rayed, updated and repackaged. If the X-ray showed nothing, I think you could still have a gen1 phone that is now bursting into flames. I don't think they will go through the trouble of opening up 2,5m phones and replace the batteries. That is more labour and time intensive than to bring out new units for about $200-250 worth of materials.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] notefreak:
http://www.cnbc.com/2016/10/09/sams...ended-production-of-galaxy-note-7-report.html

Full statement is they are adjusting the supply to the demand. US customers which is probably their biggest base, don't want the phone anymore.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] flintston314:
Welcome to statistics.

Devices sold in Europe are expected to be less than 20.000. Devices sold in US ~ 1 Million, in Asia ~ 1.3 Million.

Now think again.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] calinormy:
20000 in Europe? Are you kidding? I can tell you that in Romania all the notes were out of stock on preorder at Vodafone/Orange and all were replaced with safe Note last month by 22 date. And this is only one small country from Europe
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] mav42:
well going by those stats and the number of units that caught fire in the US , 5 so far, it works out to be 1 in every 200000 ...so Asia should have 6.5 units which it hasnt ..there were 4 and 1 app had something punched through the battery and the one in China the owner didnt want to had over the note to Samsung
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] notefreak:
Can you tell us where the info about 20000 sold in Europe is from?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Señor Sjon:
Not the Netherlands... pre-orders halted again: http://www.sammobile.com/2016/10/10...-halts-shipments-of-galaxy-note-7-pre-orders/

We never even got the chance to fire-test them.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] daiash:
Have there been any Exynos fires?

Because I've had a lengthy conversation about my delayed Note 7 (uk) this morning with my supplier, and they have not received any notification from Samsung that stock will not be fulfilled. Maybe it's just a snapdragon issue?

I know a lot can happen in a couple of weeks, but they said so far that they'll still be sending mine out on 21st October. I've already bought accessories for a phone I may never get.

If samsung stop producing this device whats going to happen to all the case and accessories manufacturers?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] aengus4h:
I wondered this also. When my replacement arrived I noted the black square was crumpled on one corner. Then the phone front screen plastic cover had a couple bubbles in it - never had a new phone come that way before. Also it hadn't had the firmware update but installed it when I did the "check for updates".

So that left me wondering but so far its behaved fine, maybe a tad warmer than the one it replaced when Qi charging but never gets hot... yet. Not unpacked any of the accessories as I wasn't planning on using them but they all looked sealed, as new-shipped would be.

I can believe that factory output over a couple weeks would have been able to ship new units for exchange if no changes to production were needed, though getting any rectification/resupply & extra QC checking set up in that short timeframe would have been a massive effort. If they did short-cut and that's resulted in this second wave of issues, then they've not helped their customers or image at all. Hmm both original and replacement are ex Vietnam and that the source added Vietnam factory specifically leaves me wondering now too...

We can only wait on where they go with this now and hope for the best. If they do a small redesign and then exchange-II on existing notes I'll be happy to continue. Whether it would be worth it for them however is another issue, damaged reputation for the device will be very hard to overcome. If they pull the plug then no point hanging onto it since updates etc will become a problem down the road. Hopefully they offer a full refund program if that becomes the path chosen.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] radioraheem2:
Oh, so it's all the media's fault, and there really aren't issues but media just spinning lies?

The delusion on here is out of control and killing this board.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] ixman:
Had been using my replaced N7(UK) heavily for last two weeks even used a different charger from an HTC 10 and I have absolutely zero issues. Been monitoring the battery with GSAM battery monitor.

I've disabled Samsung cloud sync and few more ****ty apps. I'm running stock ROM.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] flintston314:
Official European (I count Germany for that) start was considered the 2nd of September. I know because I preordered a device and got it on the 30th of August. That would likely fit the rest of Europe.

Even BEFORE going on sale, Samsung halted the sale of the Note 7 in all European countries. So, while the blokes in the electronics shop told you it is "sold out", in fact it was just not being sold at all, because the units were said to be defective.

Units sold prior to launch in Germany are assumed to be in the read of 3000. The device was never and still is NOT officially launched in any of the european countries.

So, please, again, tell me how Samsung would have sold "millions" in the EU while the offical launch was planned for September 2nd, 2 days after Samsung halted that sale because of the issues arising from burning phones? There is still NO official launch date for the Note 7 available - it is not SOLD OUT everywhere, it is not available. That is a huge difference.

So, yes, there are under 20k Units sold in the EU because of the reasons I stated above.

This media **** is out of proprotion.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] sbuttler:
I'm not suggesting this, what I'm asking for is a more balanced assesment of the situation, carefully considering *facts* and

investigating the background. I, for one would like to see evidence that the allegedly misdirected SMS is genuine but what

we get is news sites asking people to stop purchasing the device. Thanks, but I do not need this sort of partronizing what

I need the media to do is to present unbiased facts, not opinion. I don't give a rats ass what some media jerks thinks people

should be doing. Its not just the Samsung story but generally all you get these days is opinionated story telling I don't need

that I'm perfectly capable of making up my own mind.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Señor Sjon:
If they made a phone that didn't self destruct, no media channel was able to hamper it. And why would it become an issue with this phone and not the more popular S7 Edge? Or any of the previous verions?

A lot of tinfoil being wrapped here.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] bonerp:
They won't kill the note 7. Not only would they lose the income but also the following they've built up. Furthermore they would have to cancel ALL the contracts they have with multiple suppliers who had to tool up for the note 7, and pay off all the contractual penalties in place.

A formal statement will no doubt be issued in good time so may as well quit with the surmising until that point.

No one will know the truth until the time if and when Samsung decide.

I wouldn't be surprised if something came out about another (different) failing component from a 3rd party supplier who they pay off quietly to take the blame, fix via another source and carry on.

Don't forget all the extras made up and sold - backpacks, cases, camera lens etc - all of which I have!!!! :(

It would be too big to wash away.

Personally I bet this is litigation as its worst - someone is trying to make a quick buck or theres a hint of sabotage going on here. None in europe have been reported as problematic. My first was bootlooping but the replacement is perfect..
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Batfink33:
Because batteries design changes in every phone. They made the Note 7 battery the smallest and more "crammed" into the Note 7 case. There's no conspiracy, Samsung even admitted there's been a fault. The signs even from Samsung are looking bad, they've halted production and said nothing about these new fires. They're quite obviously in trouble with this phone.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Maerad:
AFAIK the phone is not even released in most of Europe - at least in Germany the release was planned for mid/end of October, same as the EU in general.

You can only preorder the phone here as far I can see (aside from imports)
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] sculptedstylus:
Mine is fine (Ithink!), as was my first one. My problem is that I'm addicted to its stylus. If they did abandon it, I only wish there were other options to replace it. The LG G Stylo is the closest that I have found, and it certainly doesn't compare in terms of power and features!
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] naturecannon:
That's just silly. Samsung already owned up to the first round of issues/Recall . It's pretty obvious the Note 7 has a design flaw with the Batt and the quick fix wasn't the solution. And all the pics of these burnt phone look so much alike.

There is no conspiracy here, those who claim conspiracy are ridiculous!!

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] aengus4h:
Had no issues with either of mine either, both ran/run fine. Was just the ref in the article specifically bringing in the vietnam fab - if they are worldwide supply then the US units likely came from there too. If there is a common "flaw" then time will tell, but I'll wait on more news from Sammy and regulators then decide from there.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] winol:
Here in Mexico, the note 7 was available with preorder as in USA, later, for a brief 10 day period, there is when I got mine on 30th Aug, mine was perfect, not a single issue, I used it heavily for 30 days, then took it to my carrier for exchange, as I received messages and calls from samsung and carrier, My city is a little one, has only 300 000 inhabitants, and only 20 note 7 were sold here, so, I think that a total of 10 000 were sold in Mexico, no incidents known, no media coverage about the note 7 problems at all, not here or rest of the world, I think the problem grew out of control in USA, is in part so due to the great ammount of lawsuits that happen there for ANY thinkable reason, in USA, they make lawsuit for the utmost ridicule things, so, when a REAL issue arises, it is almost guaranteed it will succed and the money comes later, in USA lawsuitting is like a national sport, so, I am not surprised to see all that fuss about the carriers not selling or exchanging this device
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] a2597:
I really don't want to trade this phone in, but I also need to know for certain that it's safe. If it's just me, no problem, but my wife and infant sleep in the same room, and if it goes up at night it effects them too.

The fact that I love this phone, but have that concern, shows that while I love it, I also don't trust it at all, and that saddens me.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] jdyowa:
The question is what phone to get? The s7 is okay but I want USB C. This is ridiculous. All the other phone like pixel don't have memory card or waterproofing.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Rado_vr6:
I feel the EXACT same way as you do. Although my children sleep in their own rooms, my wife obviously shares the same bed as I do. I would feel terrible if something were to happen to my family. My first device I believed to be fine, but with two small children I didn't want to chance it. I exchanged it for my "safe" model thinking that I would be just fine this time around. Not so much.

I can understand a lot of people's reservations about this being an actual problem; I don't want to believe it myself. Although there hasn't been any HARD evidence so far, there is still some form of evidence and plenty o of speculation. No one can sit here and say that the media is making this all up or that people are falsifying statements. If this were true, Samsung wouldn't be taking this second wave so seriously. Stopping production is a huge deal and carriers pulling the plug temporarily is just as large. Anyone who disagrees with that is either blind or just as delusional as any Trump supporter :D

Just because it hasn't happened to you, doesn't mean that it can't happen. Plenty of people believe terrible things like this can't possibly happen to them..... until it does and then they are the ones most vocal about the issue. Better safe than sorry in my opinion. We all had the funds to purchase these devices, so I'm sure that we aren't struggling to exchange them and potentially pay the tax on a different device even if we don't truly want said device. I preordered a Pixel and until it gets in I'll be using my Nexus 5X. I'll exchange my Note 7 today for an iPhone 7 and promptly place it up on Swappa.
