[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] apprentice:
Case now escalated to Mr Sang Ho Jo, Chief Executive Officer:

I am writing to complain about the total lack of compensation offered to UK consumers affected by the Galaxy Note 7 recall.

I have already raised my issue within your organisation, who suggested I escalate this further, but I feel that my issue is still unresolved after 4 weeks, hence my need to involve yourself in helping to resolve my complaint.

Samsung have not offered any compensation whatsoever to UK customers who have endured several weeks of a double recall of the Galaxy Note 7. It has been observed that other countries including but not limited to North America have been offered $100 compensation.

The recall was compulsory, in that Samsung crippled the Note 7 purchased by the customer and forced the customer to return it. This will be the second incidence of recall and with it came a great deal of inconvenience, loss of enjoyment, financial loss and overall stress. Further, I have personally endured three occasions were UK Mail failed to attend my address to collect my device. Two of these occasions resulted in me having to take unpaid leave from my work place. I also had to wait a further 10 days for a refund.

Samsung have offered absolutely zero compensation to UK customers and this is wholly unacceptable. As a very loyal customer to the Samsung brand for several years and a regular blogger that had initially praised Samsung for the way they were handling the recall on various tech websites and forums. Sadly the real lack of even an apology and an offer to compensate us has tainted my view of Samsung's customer service greatly.

I believe as a gesture of goodwill, you should now offer cash compensation in line with other countries, and/or offer a significant discount on a phone that you launch next year to supersede the Galaxy Note 7.

I will keep you posted.

Anyone complaining through resolver had a decent response through Samsung. I personally have had no reply at all since escilation
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] neildo:
I received no respone either through resolver. I did manage to squeeze a goodwill offer out of the UK Executive Office, £90. I didn't take it though and still have my Note7 (100% charge capacity).
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] apprentice:
Please could you share with us how you managed this? I was ignored after the escalation email and wasn't sure how to pursue it further. I see that another post above states France got some compensation too. I mean how do they justify one of its biggest consumer base here in the UK?

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fw85:
Hello,

I'm trying to get SuperSU 2.78 and suhide0.55 to work, but I'm having issues installing SuperSU systemless-ly.

After issuing this command:

echo "SYSTEMLESS=true" > /data/.supersu

I flashed SuperSU 2.78 SR1 and it said "System-less mode" in the pre-install checks.

But then something goes wrong in this part:

Boot image patcher

- Finding boot image
--- Boot image: /dev/block/mmcblk0p18
- Extracting ramdisk
- Decompressing ramdisk
--- Failure, aborting

I've tried alot of googling and thread searching on xda, but I wasn't able to find any clear instructions on what to do in this case. I've read somewhere that the boot image needs to be packed as gzip, so I did some searching again, but wasn't able to find any comprehensive guide on how to do that either.

Could someone please point me in the right direction perhaps?

Device: LG G3 D855, stock MM, currently fully unrooted

Recovery: TWRP 3.0.2
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] izeeqo:
Try to flash this recovery image with Flashify , then go into recovery and repeat again the handling to install SUPERSU in systemless mode.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fw85:
Might I ask, which recovery is that? TWRP? Which version?

My device isn't rooted at the moment, so I cannot use Flashify. I upgraded my TWRP from 2.8.6 to 3,0,2 today by flashing the image in recovery.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cultofluna:
Maybe you have to bump your boot image...

Try flashing this after supersu....

The wake up gesture does not work when the Gear Fit 2 is worn on the inside of the wrist. There is no setting to change this anywhere either. Even my Band 2 had more apps and functionality in the software. I really want to like this device, but so far I think I'll return it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] tha_bulldog:
Greetings to all of you!

I have a HTC TyTN, flashed with the official WM6. It's still original.

I received it as a gift, because it was flooded with water. I dried it (it still had WM5) and everything worked... Except for the speaker! The calling speaker is fine however. Also, the headset connector works flawlessly too.

The speaker isn't defective (i checked it hooking it up to my iPod), so the problem is in the circuit, probably a waste of time.

Is there any way to route the sound of Windows Mobile (and the ringtone too) to the front speaker? Like with a registry setting?

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] borisb:
What's your opinion?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] djkeller3:
Pixel for sure. AI and VR are about to hit big time and that's a big part of what the Pixel is all about.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] matteventu:
V20? Are you serious?

Ok it will have better audio-capabilities, but apart from that, it's crap compared to Pixels.

Starting with the awful LG interface.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] drum747:
Tough decision. Quad DAC, removable battery, IR blaster on the V20 versus a better smaller screen on the Pixel (in my opinion) and frankly an old school 2014 design but with pure Android. I am actually conflicted on which way to go since I have the Note 7. Its a valid question that many are trying to figure out (which is why Im here). The screen on the V20 will be the deciding factor for me and I will need to see it in person.. I like things about both phones. I wish there was a device that offered the best of both but not this year.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] mgymnop:
I preordered the Pixel XL but when reviews are out for one of both and one gets better reviews I stick with that one. V20 might have a better camera but could have short battery life and I don't care about changeable batteries. The Pixel has stock Android which is pretty dull after a while. Don't care about VR or personal assistant. That won't be big until I get my next phone anyway.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Tha Watcher:
The Pixel SUCKS!!!! :laugh:

Kidding... I don't know for sure, I'm just chiming in. :D

I'd personally choose the LG V20. I don't care about VR.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] drum747:
I just read what was captured from a Reddit post and the images from the Pixel look great along with the video/stabilization. The guy has cleaned all video and posts, seems like he got in trouble. He claimed he had 4 hours SOT with 53% battery left. I will need to see more reports but seems promising even with the bezels. lol, maybe you guys have already seen all that.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] mtucker:
I watched a lot of V20 pre-release reviews on Youtube and got some hands-on time at an ATT store today. It seems like a very nice phone. For $830 (at ATT), I would rather pay the extra $39 and get a 128GB Pixel XL (I have one pre-ordered). I wouldn't take advantage of the fancy DAC on the V20. Removable battery is nice, but I never used that on my older Samsung phones even though I had an extra battery. I use to be a big removable storage fan, but with 128GB of fast memory in the pixel, removable storage seems minor. Updates will likely be much better on Pixel. Both phones appear to have a really good camera. I think the V20 would have to be about $650 or less to get me to seriously consider it.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] drum747:
Coming from the V10, I swapped batteries like they were going out of style, SOT wasn't great. I had never owned a non removable battery device until the Note 7 and made it work so,..There are so many "compromises" on all phones this year except the Note 7. Sad situation. I had the V10 so I am reluctant to go back to an IPS panel (personal preference) The Pixel is growing on me the more I see, not sure where I will end up at this point but know I have to take back my Note 7 so I need to figure it out.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TheFuzz:
I've had the G3, G4, V10 and my wife has the G5. Needless to say, huge LG fan. But, I have to root, go through all the trouble to ultimately make the phone more of a pure Google experience. Do not having to root to get a great UI, plus for pixel.

Next, I had the bootloop of death on my V10 two weeks ago so I got a Nexus 6p to try out while I waited for my replacement V10. That was it for me. I sat and watched all the security updates flow onto the phone! Wow, how impressive! Then got to use nougat pure and loved it. I didn't want to go back to nth V10. That's a tough thing for me to say as a huge fan of LG.

So at the end of the day, I'm going pixel. Here's my reasons.

1. Constant updates including security updates.

2. Purity. Maybe I finally won't have to root as phone!

3. Camera! Quality yes... But speed to take a picture! If it's anything at all like the nexus, I'm sold

4. I could care less about DAC. I haven't used wired phones in years.

5. 128gig, more than enough to not miss removable storage and let's face it, Google has been making consistently more annoying to even have a phone with it.

6. 2nd screen is cool but not particularly useful.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] borisb:
You are all right. But the nexus 6p had such a choppy expiriance.

The v20 is cheaper, same quality camera (more or less) and the IPS panel is great and close enough to amoled .

The issue is that we don't really know what to expect from the pixel.

Its a under clocked CPU with pure android and good camera. And there is a strong chance that most of us will will root it.

The v20 is cheaper with better sound qualities and also gonna be rooted to give us a pure expiriance.

Its a 5.7 screen and has an always on display.

Does the pixel really trump the v20?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] BuzzFuzz:
I see your are from Germany, where did you pre-order Pixel? Thanks :)
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Rippley05:
I asked the same question. Don't let fanboys sway your decision. They both have pros and cons. I have had very bad issues wirh LG as far as text lag, screen throttle, scrolling lag, etc. At the same time, the pixel offers nothing new, no wow factor.

I chose the pixel simply becwuse I'm pressed to give up this note 7 and the pixel is available to order while LG, once again shows why they're not a serious player. They failed to take advantage of this Samsung screw up in the US where we still, a month or so later, have no release date.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] mgymnop:
I am from Germany but live in the US. Can't answer your question regarding Europe. Gruss aus San Diego :)
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] borisb:
Right, I am with you. Just returned the note 7 and I am looking for a replacement.

My wife has the LG G4 and she loves it and a good friend of mine has the V10 and he loves it.

I don't see a lag in any of them and when I compared the phones to my note 7 I was really jealous since the note has horrible lags.

You can buy the v20 unlocked at B&H and get a tablet with it for 870$, which is already almost 100 less from what I paid for the pixel. Plus you get a bigger screen with the V20, better audio, SD card slot, Dual camera (which will be pretty good and close to the pixel) and Nuget.

So at this point I am really baffled as to what I want to get.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] mgymnop:
Just canceled my order of the Pixel XL. T-Mobile had a great offer for the V20. 200 bucks trade-in for my old phone, free B&O headphones and a free tablet (which I don't need but will give to my nephew). The phone altogether costs me slightly above 550 bucks. In comparison to the almost 1,000.00 for the Pixel XL that seems like a steal even if I have to compromise with certain things. The Pixel has no wow effect other than some software gimmicks. I will get a Pixel 2nd gen next year. Hopefully then with some fantastic hardware.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Birdsfan:
I played with the V20 the other day in the AT&T store, it was just "okay" in my opinion. I am much more excited to play with the Pixel XL.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TechBSwift:
I played with the v20 and it was more than alright, its an amazing phone. I'm torn between the pixel and the v20 so I ordered both and will return the one that I don't want. The pixel will have my development by far!!!
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Birdsfan:
To each his own, if you were digging it great, just didn't wow me. Now I am still mourning the loss of my Note7 so you know nothing is really exciting me now:rolleyes:
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TechBSwift:
I'm with you bro, hands down the note 7 is king. Remember that stupid saying " it's better to love and lost, rather than never finding love at all"... That's some untrue bs
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] CZ Eddie:
How do you guys know V20 will have root?

I searched the V20 forum and didn't see it anywhere.

And the V10 appears to have poor dev support.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] drum747:
The T mobile V10 had root and an unlockable bootloader and zero development so not sure that the situation will be much different with the V20.

[General Questions and Answers] muttleytm:
I've been using freedompop for a few years. I mainly just use wifi and get by OK with the free 500MB or data, however, as time has gone on their support has declined. I've had a few HTC phones and currently have a Galaxy S3. This phone has worked very well, but, I think I have a usb port problem and rather than repair it I'm thinking of replacing it with some newer (used or refurbished) model. I've noticed that lately it is using up a lot of my data from background system apps. I've found how to restrict background data, but, when an app updates, I lose this setting and don't always catch it. I'm also using AICP as the ROM and maybe there is something in it that is causing this as well.

In any event it is an older model phone and I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions on any good cheap phones to look for to replace it.

I do like the ability to change the battery. I can carry around a spare battery and have a spare battery and charger in the car as well. I also like the ability to charge wirelessly and use bluetooth a good deal.

I've heard there is a new fast charge feature on some newer phones, this might be of interest as well.

Does anyone have any suggestions on phones to look at?

Also, I'm open to another service besides freedompop if there are any others like this. Also, because I'm looking at limited data plans I'd be interested more in how to better restrict or control background data use.

TIA
