I still own the phone, so I am still on this sub-forum. For those that do not own the phone but find it their duty to come here with the sole purpose to convince others that they should return it seems a little crazy to me. Looking at you too Ryland. [emoji6]
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BarryH_GEG:
Word of advice. Discussing IMEI spoofing and changing is against XDA's TOS (as are the other things above BTW). Posting about it will get you warned or banned depending on the mod.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Ryland Johnson:
Do your research. I have made it crystal clear I dislike the nanny state and that I would fight for your freedom to own this mobile.

I find it odd that just a handful of posters here still shout from the roof tops about

their freedoms

yet try so hard to stifle freedom of posting on this forum? Double standards to write the least!

I owned two of the Note 7's, best mobile I have ever owned. Was difficult to return them. I miss the mobile very much as there is zero to replace it. I fully understand why owners desire to keep this mobile, one would be crazy not to want to own a Note 7.

Where I part ways with a tiny % of posters if where they start to debate how best to smuggle a note 7 on board an aircraft. That is not funny, not to be laughed at. THAT is when an owner starts to deny the freedoms and safety of others and that is an act of selfishness also breaking the law (the law part doesn't bother me either, its the act of selfishness that's bugs me).

To repeat. One should not be told what to keep, its a persons

legally purchased phone

. What an owner has to do in their quest for freedom is respect other peoples freedoms. I have zero problem with some one owning a Note 7, why would I?

There are several threads that are against the XDA regulations. That is bad enough but what is worse is that XDA has, to date, enjoyed a very good reputation in the world of forum posting. At present XDA is doing itself zero favours by allowing threads that encourage the exchange of information that is illegal. Not our problem though.

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] jal3223:
True, I can respect this viewpoint. I haven't really saw any talk of someone trying to smuggle the phone on an airplane or anything, but I do understand where you are coming from. I was being a bit stifling to the ones with a different opinion than mine I suppose. My apologies.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Ryland Johnson:
No problems. This is a forum. We should have different views if we didn't no need for a forum?! Providing we are all tolerant of another's point of view I think forums are healthy and one can learn an awful lot.

Well crap, I'm in Ohio, wonder when I will see this "update" My phone states it hasn't received an update Since September 1rst....

That's what I was thinking, but still.....(And thats all I'm going to say on that...) ;)

On a lighter topic, how will airlines know what phone you bring on? I'm sure dozens have been in the air since the ban. I'm sure right this very minute there are dozens flying the friendly skies. You place it in an xray machine. Unless the agent recognizes the x-ray view of this phone or they have somehow programmed an algorithm to flag potential Note 7's from the x-rays then they will not know. I'm going to buy an iPhone case (just in case) to shove my phone into and place an apple sticker on it..just to be sure.... :silly:

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] CerveCesar:
If you can live without Iris Scanner and Secure Folder but not without full charge. Then maybe you can explore flashing the Hydra custom ROM.

Me, as an electrical engineer, I feel safer with 80% charge (Knowing What I know). And I've dusted off my backup portable battery charger.

You can always find a 4500mAh Note 7 battery case from Amazon for like 5 bucks

Sunday November 6th. Just to update my comment. User [MENTION=7831449]xxxMJTxxx[/MENTION] was able to successfully switch his phone from 60% to 100% without root or tripping knox with a very detailed instruction here: http://xdaforums.com/note-7/help/using-note-7-t3461255?goto=newpost

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] kingtiamath:
Actually Hydra roms works with the retina scanner

About the charge i disagree completely. I have been reading about the subject and the risk seem to be in the high temperatures. Charging the note to 100 doesnt make hot at all. So i think that as long as you dont use fast charge there are very few risks involved

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] smith74:
Addition: First of all most persons here are Note 7 lovers and looking for options / a way to keep the device. Similarly I also don’t want to return such a device, you may understand from my actions - I purchased it on the very day when Note 7 started selling. Besides, even if I want to return it there is no way yet in my country Bangladesh, since there is no exchange/refund program as yet & I don't have any other replacement device to use for the time being.

It’s really annoying to stay under 60% / 80% bty (I feel out of fuel with this amount of chg when I am outside of office or home). As the relevant first update regarding bty limit already took place & made my device's charge limit to 60% (max 80% can be done by turning off a switch after every restart) & annoying popping up notice from Samsung, there is no way going back to old official firmware via Odin (I tried many times with many country specific firmware of SM-N930FD variant, but no luck as yet since Samsung already blocked that way from inside the device). For myself I found only way to remain with 100% bty is by rooting & installing custom roms. For me, both HydraRom V1.3.5 Aroma and TEKXodus Hybrid N7 URv5.1 are working fine with 100% bty charge. Also Dr.Ketan ROM M2 has 100% bty chg. Waiting to try HydraRom V1.4 next. FYI, I previously owned Note 4 & 5, but none of them was rooted by me, kept the OEM roms in both. Only current device I rooted to avoid the 60%/80% bty issue & retain the 100% bty. On the other hand I stopped fast charging option in my device, which might be a bit safer for the device (in my opinion & in case), cause it seems to me that while fast charging option is off the device becomes less hotter during charge.

Btw I'm bit curious, as far my knowledge goes, the mobile networks/operators can track a device / black list it / make it unusable by chasing the imei only. In this case even if we use a custom rom, can we really avoid from blacklisting our device / making it unusable with that network/operator? :)
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BarryH_GEG:
There are three things Samsung can and most likely will progressively do to kill the Note7:

In tandem with wireless carriers block the device by IMEI and/or device ID. Both are transmitted by the phone.

Block/kill Samsung Account access which hobbles all Samsung apps including Samsung Pay.

Work with Google to block/kill access to Play Services and the Play Store which will result in all Google and third party apps showing "This app isn't compatible with your device."

You can spoof the IMEI, alter the device ID on rooted phones, and continue to play whack-a-mole with Samsung as they increasingly tighten the noose. Over time the s/w will decay without updates (including security updates) and the only support for the s/w will be from third party devs. That includes a kluged ROM to deliver Nougat which the S7-series will see shortly. Without a version of Nougat produced by Samsung there won't be compatible drivers for things like the iris scanner or support for S Pen. As the above starts to occur all novices will throw in the towel leaving a couple of hundred hard core geeks clinging to the phone and banding together to try to keep it usable. Not a pretty picture no matter how you slice it.

I guess there are people out there that prefer a custom old Mustang even it means it going to need and extra efort instead of your boring and easy living Corolla.

There will alwais be people who is diferent and dont mind the extra works ir it means having something unique.

Research octoplus and chimera. Also remember to change build.prop to match S7 so play store updates will work.

Yeah. I have a fix for the Sprint Version. Download this .tar and put each part in the right box. Turn on OEM unlock and Debugging and flash with the latest version of Odin3_v3.12.4_4 . My phone now charges to 100% and the stupid recall nag screen is gone. The phone is 100% stock and unrooted still. You're welcome. Don't forget to hit that thanks button.

I believe this only works on the Sprint version. SM-N930P

I received an update notification this morning and just clicked install later and set it for tomorrow morning 5 minutes after my morning alarm goes off. Is it possible that I can just do this every morning until Samsung/Verizon kills my phone? I'm assuming it is the 60% battery update?

I did the same thing with my first Note 7 until Costco had my replacement Note, which took 2 weeks.

Got to tell you that you don't have to smuggle devices on to all aeroplanes.

I just flew return from Birmingham UK to Fuerteventura. I didn't take my N7 in case it got confiscated. Needn't have bothered. In the preflight announcements they simply asked anyone with a Samsung Galaxy Note7 to turn off their device for the duration of the flight. Monarch Airlines. Clearly they don't see a problem (and nor do I particularly if the battery is drained before flying).
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] JN3WMN:
If you're getting a message on your phone about the update AT ALL, then it's already too late. Whether you have automatic updates turned off or not, it will simply override the option & install automatically after a certain number of attempts.

Has anyone found a way to put Hydra on the PHE

---------- Post added at 09:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:07 AM ----------

You have to wonder what took Samsung so long to issue this 60% battery limitation update, even with the understanding that its other initiatives have reclaimed 85% of units out there. This update really should have been issued sooner, and further actions such as stopping the phones from accessing cellular networks altogether would really put the screws to the remaining owners to return their phone. There's no downside for Samsung at this point to doing everything in its power to reclaim remaining Note 7s.

http://www.androidcentral.com/85-us...d-battery-limiting-update-arriving-stragglers[/QUOTE]

It took long because there were legal hoops they had to jump. The US has alot of sue happy people at the same time going after our imei's on a phone that is considered a utility and many of us are still being charged for is gonna leave both them and the carriers in the US open for a class action suit. Destruction of private property laws is what they are trying to work around but enough smart customers can beat them to the punch. Those trade ins for many of us leave us locked into a new installment plan on a phone we don't want. I don't know about you but that's far too much money for something no where near as good (s7 my kids have them) I had the Note 4 before and gave it away once I got 7. So for me it's a punishment. I preorderd didn't get any freebies. I was suppose to get a nice chunk off of hubby's N7 but still haven't seen that. They don't even carry N4 or N5 on my carrier.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Ryland Johnson:
Hi Rick. I am no longer following the saga but understand in some countries their national airline safety board have banned the phone making it a criminal offence to take one, OR TRY, on board. Some UK airlines have banned them.

The risk is great, not due to the mobile going pop but if one is caught trying to take the mobile on some carriers or even in

some airports

one would be arrested and a court process made. The other side of this would result in a no fly ban that would be next to impossible to have revoked.

I think you where wise not to bother as a genuine mistake could be seen as something else and the proverbial sh1t could hit the fan and for what? A mobile phone! Just not worth that sort of risk and problem (for me). Even cruise lines and some rail services have banned them not to mention other 'public' areas. HOW we are supposed to know 'the whats and wheres' is another problem for those left with the Note 7.

I can well do without that extra hassle in my life but understand completely those who are willing to live with a mobile that is under such scrutiny. Though the Note 7 is the finest mobile phone I have ever owned and I mourn its ownership , I was just not willing to own one for the hassle that now comes with such an ownership irrespective of how accomplished the device was and it was certainly accomplished in ever area that I needed. Its been a absolute pig of a situation. :crying:

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BarryH_GEG:
What possible defense could anyone make about their right to use a product declared defective by its manufacturer and government bodies? Suits are going to happen because they can and the financial outcomes will pale in comparison to the $5B+ Samsung's already lost because of the Note7. They wanted to give everyone a chance to do the right thing elegantly. That group has. Now comes increasing levels of brute force.

This forum is starting to remind me of alien invasion movies. The aliens land and everyone's jittery. Then the aliens start destroying the cities and everyone freaks out and tries to find safety. Then there's just a handful of people left running around like ants trying to save themselves. Samsung's the alien and they are mad. ;)
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] force70:
By the time all of that happens ( and some or all of it may or may not occur) the S8 or perhaps even note 8 will be out.

For me i stayed on the note 7 because up until the Mate 9 released there was nothing else that could replace it or that i was even interested in owning. I certainly couldnt keep using my note 4 as a primary device as its a little antiquated for me at this point...back up only status

I will keep my note regardless but with the mate 9 coming I wont use it as much (maybe lol).

Besides imei not a problem, dont care about sammy pay or account at all. Most apks can be downloaded off line from the play store etc etc .

Theres easy enough workarounds for most of what they could kill depending on how you use the device.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BarryH_GEG:
To be seen. Now that those willing to exchange have there's no incentive or reason for Samsung to dawdle or go easy on hold outs.

Easy enough for advanced XDA'rs willing to turn their phone in to a garage project. What's that amount to, about 1% or less of Note7 users? Neophytes aren't going to invest the time or effort to keep a device on life support alive.

I have been lumbered with an iphone the past couple of years and only just managed to move back to android devices, so I am a bit out of the loop when it comes to root methods, custom recoveries etc
