And don't cross-post or duplicate post, you just created a thread with this exact same word for word information - such actions are seriously frowned upon around here.

Unfortunately you have no ground to stand on now that the mandatory recall is official here in the US - a few days ago you might have had something to stand on during the voluntary period, but not anymore.

Samsung or your carrier you purchased it from (assuming you did) are offering to cover the expense of returning the device, provide shipping materials so it's done as safely as it can be, and then cover your expenses with a refund and Samsung is even offering $100 credit towards switching to another Samsung device which is completely optional but of course they're hoping that you'll do it.

If you want to stand out from the crowd and walk your own path, fine, whatever, just stay the hell away from anyone else when you're doing so. There is no logical or rational reason for keeping a Note 7 at this point in time regardless of how nice you think it is or how well it squeaks your sneakers, folks.

Do the right thing, return it and move on and for the love of Pete will you people stop acting all high and mighty just because you feel it necessary to spam the world with your opinions on why you feel justified or how you choose to rationalize keeping a known defective device.

It's taking stupidity to ludicrous levels, really fast.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] sonhy:
hope no one actual does fly with their Note 7 just for fun, it won't kill anyone, but it'll be very embarrassing if in the very very rare chance it smokes up (or instantly explodes the plane like all the intellectually gifted few are saying :p )

but would high pressure and change in air pressure add to the other unknown factors to cause a fault? not sure...

putting in a water filled bag wont work because its a chemical fire not a carbon fire like wood, also metal in a watery bag looks very dodgy through the xray.

putting it inside a metal box alone won't stop the smoke from coming out and fully sealing it might even cause a pop. maybe adding chemical fire retardant foam inside the box might stop mass smoke build up but not the initial smoke. maybe use a space bag to capture the smoke?

buy a few lottery tickets if you wont change your mind, might as well play the odds!

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] h078:
My 2 cents here;

1) no incident was reported where N7 actually exploded

2) I believe few of them overheated, but were they actually used in proper manner?

3) I DO NOT BELIEVE that one report where phone combustion occurred while phone was powered off, that is impossible.

No load on voltage source means no current flow thus no heat dissipation.

I believe that people misused this whole situation for potential financial gain.

I got N7 when it came out. It became warm, not hot - warm, during initial setup only. During those first few hours all data was downloaded and synced from the cloud. I had no issues ever since. I turned off fast charge feature and I was using wireless charger from day 1. I never used fast charging on my N4 and my N5. I am electronics engineer and I personally never believed that fast charge was thing that should be used on daily basis or let alone several times per day.

I do not play games nor have any memory or processor intensive apps.

I use N7 for my personal and work email, phone calls, navigation, texting and web browsing. I read ebooks with lowest display brightness and use camera a lot and watch occasional video on YouTube . My only social network is Linked In. From 7am, until I put it back on charger around midnight every day, i am left with 30% or more battery charge.

I did not experience phone getting warm, let alone hot, based on my usage pattern. Same holds true for my original phone as well as for my replacement N7.

I really would like to keep the phone as I do not think there is any replacement phone on US market that comes close to N7 performance and features (Retina Scan being one of the coolest) .

I contacted T-Mobile today and I was too,as some people above, recommended to keep phone. Recall is voluntary and they can't force people to return the phones. I am hoping that flight ban will be revisited , and lifted, in reasonable amount of time (Christmas this year).

It is not true that I have disregard for my own or other people's safety. I would have returned it already, had I for one second have suspected or felt anything wrong with the phone related to its thermal stability.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] DeMi-GoD:
I'm keeping mine as long as I can too bro. I just love this phone too much to give it up... Honestly it's the first phone I've ever had that I can say I'm totally satisfied with it.. Other than I wish it had two front facing stereo speakers. That's the only thing I'd change. I just hope they don't blacklist the IMEI's. I do worry about not being able to fly with it though.. I might be wanting to fly to cali for Christmas. I wish Verizon would let me keep my upgrade and let me swap for an s7 edge or maybe note 5 then I'd probably do it I guess but no way am I using my upgrade to downgrade to a inferior phone.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] br0adband:
There's a problem with that theory because a Li-Ion cell - in a state of zero discharge meaning it's not even connected to a circuit in any manner whatsoever - can still end up in a thermal runaway situation because of a contact situation with the anode-cathode plates.

Also, Li-Ion are chemically based batteries hence the Lithium aspect of the name for the technology (which also relates to the electrolytes in use as well). A chemical reaction can happen that has no outward signs of anything including heat until the reaction has gone past the point of no return aka the runaway situation.

Heat is not a requirement for a Li-Ion cell to destroy itself.

It can and often does mitigate a problem that already exists but, you don't have to have any heat at all but there can still be an absolute failure that takes place.

The recall for the Note 7 in the United States is mandatory as of 3PM on October 13, 2016 per the CPSC.

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Kilabee:
Im keeping mine for a while. Best phone I have ever owned by some margin. It ticks every box I have ever wanted apart from the combustion one. Keeping a close eye on it when charging and monitoring it fairly closely. Currently charging at 31-32 degrees and not doing anything out of the ordinary.

Took it in to replace and long story short is Telco trying to push a replacement on me that I don't really want.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] borisb:
Is version getting the v20? That might be a good choice for you.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] h078:
Anode and cathode touching theory would render device unusable out of the box.

There was likely case of manufacturing excursion at a place where they produced batteries. If impurities are introduced to separation layer, or if separation layer was fully omitted and battery still made to the final product that could be explanation for small number of cases.

However think about this;

If manufacturing defect was indeed there from day 1, don't you think that at least one phone would ignite during initial delivery where and when every product was turned off.

Every single battery is chemically based. There is no other kind. They differ based on chemical compounds used and material that causes chemical reaction. I believe there is defect with some of N7 batteries, maybe design flaw with thickness of separator layer. But as for every chemical reaction you need catalyst to speed it up. So likely degradation of separation layer was due to high current "Fast Charging" mode thus opening holes in separation layer allowing electrons to flow freely and oversaturate graphite layer of the battery. Again, all of this is based on my personal speculations.

However I believe also that Samsung found out immediately what was wrong with those phones. In order to protect company from massive number of potential lawsuits by all the "gold diggers" out there and fully tarnish company's image, it was simple business decision, even-though financially crippling, to recall the product and take it of the company's portfolio.

Similar business decision for example as Pentium FDIV bug recall by Intel in 1994.

Im not try to cross-post or duplicate post just trying to spread the word of whats going on with the imei blocking. I can confirm that they are blacklisting the imei"s . Don't come at me for trying to help the community. If the mods want to delete duplicate post thats fine.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] conkerick:
I'm keeping my Note 7 (SM-N930FD). I love this phone (had a note 4 and 5). It's still running smooth, just slightly warm during initial charge (obviously normal).
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] br0adband:
As of this moment, all I can see is you being the only person anywhere that's making that claim so, no offense but your confirmation is worthless at this point.

If a device is registered for the recall aka you took it back to the carrier for a return in person or you contacted Samsung and they put you down as a return and sent out the return box/glove/kit thing then it's entirely within either the carrier's rights or Samsung to remove the IMEI number from active service, especially the carriers since it's their networks and they can block or restrict access to their network services at their discretion.

tl;dr Again, I don't see a problem with this and if it forces more people with Note 7 devices into returning them it's a good thing.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Rick GM:
Thoughtful, positive comments (not).

Don't think there's any need for that attitude. You're a bit late for the "don't breed" comment, but then again you're probably not old enough to breed.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Rick GM:
6 days since I cancelled the collection of my device and contacted Samsung asking details of the recall before I would allow them to take it away. Still no response to my questions. If that's an indicator of how serious Samsung are taking this issue then there's no problem in keeping it IMO.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Chippy_boy:
I don't believe that either. If that was likely, or even possible, then why would Samsung's advice be to power off the device? That would surely be a waste of time? If there was danger of powered-off phones catching fire, then the advice Samsung would be giving out would be to leave the phone switched on, and allow the battery to drain completely flat (thereby removing as much energy from the battery as possible and making a fire more or less impossible). But they have not said that.

Therefore, either their current advice is wrong, or the device is safe when powered off.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] br0adband:
A thermal runaway cascade failure can happen in a Li-Ion battery cell regardless of whether it's being actively drained (device powered on in whatever state it happens to be in) or in a state where a cell is idle and not even connected if the cell has suffered some level of damage due to some unknown catalyst, especially if the charging circuit was involved.

It's far from an impossible event and not just with Li-Ion technology either.

With respect to why Samsung tells people to turn their Note 7 devices off, what the hell else can they suggest? Open the device and yank the battery out? How many people could actually do that themselves, maybe a half-percentage point, let alone how many would actually do it?
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Rick GM:
I'm no expert but a device with no remaining battery charge would be totally safe. I find it beyond belief that the flight ban (which only applies in the US) doesn't allow the device with with no charge. So much easier to police than to try and identify the Note7 amongst all the devices out there.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] mariano3113:
I'm seriously confused by the comments regarding the Note 7 and it being powered off not being an issue.

Maybey Note 7 was different, but Could be wirelessly charged while in the Powered Off state.

It would heat up while not Powered on or having a charger connected via USB and instead was charging on Wireless Charger pad. (Only USB C device I have owned that could do Wireless charging)

I find it more realistic that a device was powered off and became powered on by accidental contact.

The Southwest Airlines issue happened when the device was not charging. Would that only be a battery impurity or would it be faulty voltage load. (Claimed to have happened when powering the device down.)*

So not entirely that the device was in the fully powered down state - but also clearly was not charging when it started smoking.
[Samsung Galaxy S Duos] TheLastOmori:
Well..This is my first post here (hope im not being a bother or breaking any forum rules ;-; )

Anyway I have a problem with my phone and I need help fixing it.

Details: Phone is rooted, and since the first time I got this phone some strange orange/white Chinese logo appears before the Samsung logo pops up(I know it's from china ._.)

Problem: phone is booting but Samsung logo is slow and the phone is preety laggy (because local storage is chock-full) when phone boots, home screen appears with the error "Unfortunately the process Google process. gapps has stopped". And the worst problem is that any changes I make (deleteing files uninstalling apps, ANYTHING, the phone crashes at random and restarts(And everything I've done just comes back. Untouched). Even if I just turn it on and leave it (it even crashes at the Samsung logo)

I've tried:

Factory resetting: doesn't work (nothing changes)

Wiping cache: doesn't work

Flashing a custom rom with odin: still nothing

Flashing a stock rom with odin: nothing

Adb sideload: nope

Unbrick tools (one click Unbrick, ect): still nothing

TWRP: doesn't even show up

Wipe dalvik cache: does not appear in my recovery

Deleting all files and apps: it makes the crashing and the lag go away for a little while but sooner or later crashes and it all just comes back like if no action was done.

I can literally stare at the phone while it boots, crashes and restarts on it own (over and over again)

I can't tell if this is bootloop or evil sorcery was cast opon my device.

Please help I've been hunting down a solution for this nonsense for months and I can't find anything that can fix it...;-; any help is appreciated

[T-Mobile LG G3] eeo1122:
Nice. I had flashed Resurrection Remix ROM a few days ago, but it wasn't stable. Rebooted several times when I tried to manually input a phone number in dialer. Also, it took far too long to boot. About twice as long as Stock. So now I am back to Stock, still rooted on 30D & I just got hit with an OTA update notification.

How is CM 14 doing for you in regards to heat issues, Bluetooth connectivity and camera quality?
[T-Mobile LG G3] :
I don't use my g3 for daily use so I can't tell you about what issues. The Bluetooth seems to work, but I haven't tested it totally yet. I need to update the g3 vendor and configs to 30e and make sure nothing is broken.

Used TWRP to dirty flash Complete, Boot Repack, and latest SU from the link in post 1 of the 30d thread, in that order, on a phone with 30d rooted, and everything seems to be working correctly. Still rooted, showing 30e in software version.
[T-Mobile LG G3] :
tha's because you didn't want to flash the whole rom. You're bootloader and modem are on 30E, but you're still using the 30D rom.
[T-Mobile LG G3] FMSL:
Ok, I understand what I did and thank you for the explanation. I'm kinda of a noob when it comes to ROMs and for a moment I thought this was the OTA from D to E but breakdown into separate files. Guess I have to flash the ROM compelety. Again, thanks for all the work to do!

Yes. Dirty flash (just cleared cache and dalvik, but not data or full wipe) preserved all settings. Took a couple of minute to boot and update apps, but everything was preserved. Only dirty flash if you are coming from stock or rooted stock, not from any other rom.
[T-Mobile LG G3] striker111:
Dirty Flashed using TWRP 3.0 over 30D (Rooted+Stock) by clearing Dalvik and Cache.

* First boot took a while.. roughly 20-25 minutes for Optimizing App (as I have around 250 Apps)

* Took 23% of my battery (flashing to first boot -- Surprised!)

* Ubuntu 16 no longer detecting phone (no charging or MTP) was working fine before update

* Lost Root Access -- SuperSU no longer works.. says SU Binary not installed (was working before)

* Tried KingRoot 4.8.2 for temp root , NO LUCK! (root is :( gone)

* Rebooted - Ubuntu is detecting the phone now

* Bloatware are back

googled .. couldn't find any root method for this update.

Anyone has info.. how to root 30E?

UPDATE

=======

Battery's dropping FAST!!! (from 77% to 66% in few minutes of standby)

UPDATE 2

========

Flashed Boot Repack, and latest SU .. ROOT is back!

Battery Draining FAST!

This one is a working method 30E+ROOT+TWRP.

So for clarity, I just want to make sure I'm doing this right if someone can chime in. I currently have a D851 with Lollipop 5.0 CloudyG3 2.5 rom unrooted with TWRP recovery. If i wanted to upgrade to 30E KDZ, i have to do the following:

1. upgrade to 30e kdz firmware using LG Flash Tool

2. use twrp to flash the complete flashable zip

thats all I have to do?
[T-Mobile LG G3] :
If you flash the KDZ, it'll erase TWRP and you won't be able to get root.
