[Note 7 Questions & Answers] rafeba:
Supposedly is a good word for all this BS. Because all the data which we have it is coming from the MEDIA! Samsung said they had less than 40 devices catching fire and the rest of them with OVERHEATING problem. But all this data is "REPORTEDLY" coming from MEDIA and very few of them directly from users. Media is not a technical testing laboratory. Most of the times is a BRAIN WASHING machine. I'm sorry to say that but is what I'm feeling when I see such amount of crap coming from them. Media is not my mother, not my father, not my family and for sure not my friend. Media is not INVESTIGATING anymore. Just REPORTING. For who... I don't know anymore. But it is a fact. I keep trying and trying to figure out how come that... man(I restraining myself...) he manage to took out the phone from his pocket and to have that amount of burns while was DRIVING?! He grab the phone in his hands and staring at him, contemplating the picture??? How can you keep the phone with both hands when you see is on fire? And driving in the same time? The flames are coming out just on one side not on both. Not to mention... the first instinct when you see something is on fire on you're hands, is to drop down that damn thing or to throw out of the window not to staring at him. I saw also that picture and... excuse my french... i can't see any f......g explosion on that phone. Just usual melted glass and battery. And shattered glass on top corners and in the middle. Wich is pretty damn unusual... is looking like that phone was first dropped and after that was catching fire. A phone is not a damn C4, is not a damn bomb, a phone is not exploding... is popping out and thats it. I saw a couple weeks ago another video with a women and his husband in the middle of the night with a phone on fire. Supposedly a Note 7. What was amazed me was... that women trying to figure out in the dark where is the bed and the pillows because she wanted to fall dramatically... This madness has to stop. It's way beyond any common sense. It's unbelievable how easy we fall in those stories "reported" by the media. Yes the Note 7 is done... yes Samsung took the bait and is them fault for that... yes everybody is entitled to have their opinion but I hope that indeed will be their opinion. Education does not come from THE media. From media we have just craziness in these cases. Often we no longer think with our brains unfortunately, we let others to do that. And it's a pretty shame. I'm a tech guy and I like competition on the market. But as we see... even Note 7 is dead... IT HAS NO COMPETITION! And... boy oh boy, I really feel good because of that. I wish everyone all the best and I hope we can cool down a little bit.[emoji106] [emoji4]
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Spike96:
To OP: There many flaws in your oversimplification of numbers and stats, but I'll point out two that nobody has commented on yet.

1. There are not only 2.5 million Note 7 devices. 2.5 million purchases, but not devices. Remember: 2.5 million Note 7's had to be REPLACED, and most Note 7 owners owned TWO Note 7's. Not one.

There are probably closer to 4-5 million Note 7's out there.

SO, it's probably even less likely that an individual Note 7 will burn than you suggest.

2. The media won't be reporting any more burns because it's old news at this point. Any new burns and the media would simply say, "so what, we've known for months that the Note 7 is a dangerous device." A story like that now wouldn't increase readership. And that's what it pretty much boils down to when it comes to the media nowadays: will this story increase our readership?

The answer is no for a burned Note 7 that was intentionally not returned after being recalled by the manufacturer for being dangerous.

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Spike96:
My point is that it's very difficult to estimate these "burn numbers that don't stack up".

I just came from my stats class. We learned today that extrapolation (what you're doing here) is very dangerous. Interpolation is OK, but when you extrapolate, you can be extremely off in your estimates.

Really, the only reliable source of information for Note 7 burn numbers is Samsung. Nobody can possibly have any idea of what's going on except them (least of all the media). Considering Samsung still hasn't pinpointed the problem, I'm not even sure they know themselves what's going on.

Don't extrapolate based on media estimates. There is so much wrong with that.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] The Phone Company:
Cut to the chase. There is so much wrong with buying into ANYTHING media related.

There, fixed it for you. And for all you 'Coincidence Theorists' out there the media IS a "brainwashing machine", NOT your mother or your father.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Rick GM:
Thanks Spike96 for letting me know about what you learnt in your Stats class. Sorry about my dangerous extrapolation rather than interpolation but hey let's stick with common sense - the figures don't stack up.

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] ArmyNic:
Clearly user error, explained.

No hardware problem found, nothing to blame, yet it still happened. The only viable reason, the consumers. The stupid, not tech savy consumer I should say.

Imagine a person with little to no experiencd with computer building or a siglr forethought on how hardware operates. Pretty typical.

Now create a super phone and give it to them. (Equivilent to giving a movie star a lambo)

The poor phone works so hard with never closed back ground apps, wifi on, ram maxed out, sync on, gps on, demanding games played, screen full brightness, streaming video and charging all at once.

Clearly this couldn't be the issue. Everyones too smart to let this happen. -_-
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] marvi0:
I agree about something not adding up. I mean so many note 7,s are still in use right now and yet no more fires. Come on dudes something ain't right Samsung simply got spooked at the thought of lawsuits and decided to pull the plug on this phone. As for those comments about the reporters and media not being interested anymore, I doubt it as if one exploded today they would all swamp in to add to the conspiracy. Each to thier own this is the most solid device ever made to date.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] ArmyNic:
I can only say for certain that the Note 7 community here at least knows what they are doing with bloatware removed, using some sort of background app closing, ram clearing, and accumilated data removal application.

Now we just wait and see if anyones phone explodes, and they explain what happened on here.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Chippy_boy:
I don't think Samsung had any choice mate to be honest. i.e. after they have ****ed up the whole situation their hands were tied. They'd already wasted 3 billion on the 1st recall and once they realised that this did not fix the problem (or at least not fix it entirely) they couldn't really have a 2nd recall and "hope" that one fixed it, when they didn't actually know what the problem was.

IMHO they've made a big fat mess of the whole thing.

1. They've cocked it up with the design / manufacturing problems.

2. They were panicked into the 1st recall when they really didn't know what the problem was.

3. They were too hasty to cancel and withdraw the product.

4. They've been USELESS in putting in place a consistent and clear program globally to get the units withdrawn, with some countries offering some incentives and others not.

5. They've been downright offensive with their trying to limit battery life and threatening IMEI blocks

I can just about forgive (1) and maybe I can understand (2). But overall it's been an absolute disgrace.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] marvi0:
Yes it was a major mess up!. For consumers all we know is what the press has need saying and going with current events in and around the world it's pretty impossible to trust what they say. It would be sad for anyone to have an unfortunate event with the phone catching fire but at the moment am definitely keeping mine.

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Tangopro:
To add to the list - keeping phone obscured from the network (under pillows etc.) so it amps up RF output taxing the battery even more on top of everything listed above. Oh, and hows that headache? LOL! PPL need to understand what a cell phone is.

And has there been any accurate reporting on how many replacement (Green Battery) devices have had issues? What? 1, 2? maybe 3? And what if those were anomalies based on user mishandling, (or willful acts intended to pile on and damage the brand)? There have been a couple reports of a small number of iPhone 7s having battery issues too. Apple's response? "We will replace the defective units". If Note 7 replacements experienced nominal issues (just like other manufactures with batteries coming out of the same plant) then Samsung panicked and Apple, in typical fashion said "pisz off!"

Is google picky about the firmware staying stock for the Fi service?

On that subject, is there a good stock, debloated ROM? I always liked the concept of taking the stable stock ROM and just removing unnecessary junk. It's how my wife's current Moto G is running and it's twice as fast as before with vanilla.

If it were my phone I'd flash something different every week but it's for my wife and I like the no hassle stability of a stock based ROM with vanilla skin (no theming) etc.

Thanks!

Root definitely works fine, I have mine rooted with everything working fine, I have a bunch of pixel stuff running on it too including the new google assistant.... Project fi has no reason to care what you do with your phone..... as far as de-bloating, what would you want to debloat from the stock rom... its vanilla android...

I used Pixel ROM and it worked okay for me with Fi. AFAIK contrary to claims by manufacturers and carriers, rooted and flashed phones work just as well...

PS you might also find Pixel rom bloated. But honestly, it still runs quite smooth on this phone...i also freeze unnecessary apps...so dont worry too much...flash to your desire lol :D
[Android General] raza3434:
Do this at your own risk i will not be responsible for any damage. i am not a C7 user and i havent tried this...

Do a Backup or have a stock rom downloaded from sammobile site.

Turn on USB debugging mode from Developer Options on your Samsung Galaxy C7. To turn on USB debugging you have to enable Developer options, GoTo settings -> About and tap multiple times on build number.

turn on OEM unlock from developer options..

and here i repeat "on your own risk"..

bad Akku-management?

Hello,

i use the armor since two days an its fine.

but in every night the phone shut down by itself.

in the first night the akku has 56% ind the second night 32%... why it power down?

michael
[Device Reviews and Information] schroedingersdog:
Hi,

I have seen the same symptoms with battery drain over night. I believe this is because of unneeded display wakeups or permanent data traffic "standby". Not sure. I was really disappointed at first when leaving the phone on with about 40% battery power to find it completely empty in the morning.

For me it works okay now: I have installed "ScreenWakeUp" and Next Locker. Not sure why this improves battery life but at least it does.

The ultimate solution would be to have Cyanogenmod installed or at least root access to be able to install traffic management apps. This would enable to switch down to 2G when a working WiFi connection is found (and back to 4G when not), etc. to save even more battery.

In general, the phone is nice and cool, fast and responsive, good display.

What bothers me is:

- the camera (but I expected that however, the usual painpoint with China Phones...)

- the limited lockscreen features

- the worst launcher (featurewise) I've seen in years. That thing is capable of almost nothing except setting a background image

- the need to have a headphone extension cord (luckily, the phone comes with that)

- the need to have a "special" USB charging cable (so that the micro-USB plug is slim/long enough to fit)

I can't work around the hardware limitations. So I am really eager to get root access some day... or maybe a custom ROM, ideally CM-based to overcome the software limitations at least.

Cheers, Thomas
