You mean STK app
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Dpk1:
Awesome installation! I will try to get it right as per your guide.

Btw, has anybody else too not received the free wireless banner in my galaxy app even after activating the phone on 2 may itself (with the same prebooking sim)? Its been 3 days and I haven't yet. Prebooked and bought from an offline store.

One thing I would like to mention is that my airtel sim card didn't have any balance at the time of phone activation although I recharged it with 345!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotResponding22:
Yeah I don't know what it's actually terminology is :3
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] twisted_mind:
My free wireless charger is shipped already. Damn Samsung are getting good. :D
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nisarpari:
i too didnt get the wireless charger banner yet.. activated on 2nd... from Delhi
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] S6EdgeIndia:
My wireless charger has been shipped. Got a mail and sms from Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ilordvader:
Hello

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nisarpari:
I got this coupon instead of wireless charger one... Anybody else got the same? From Delhi.. Flipkart purchase!!

I'm afraid to use coupon, what if they say no to wireless charger! :/
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] whosaysjohn:
My wireless charger shipped from Noida to Delhi... Should get it tomorrow... :p
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nisarpari:
Flipkart purchase or Samsung store?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] whosaysjohn:
Offline store, ordered charger yesterday
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] twisted_mind:
ROFL grab it while it lasts :D
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nisarpari:
But what if they deny wireless charger if i use it... U nvr know.. This cover is useless anyway..! 3499.. Itna mehenga kaun bhej tha hai bhai! :p
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aman Banka:
Can you please explain the procedure you used while registering?

I mean the number you used, delivery address number or account number?.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nisarpari:
I put the same number in SIM 1 which i gave during Flipkart checkout and activated galaxy app on 2nd May. No banner till 30 minutes ago.. Then i click locate me in location settings.. It detect Delhi / NCR and then this new banner pop up!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] vin4yak:
I'm also getting an option to redeem Tumi cover :( wth
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nisarpari:
flipkart purchase ? seems like they dont have wireless charger in stock..:p
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] vin4yak:
Sounds like it. This free case move is pretty bad though on their part. Yes, it's a Flipkart purchase.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] rajarshi10:
Not getting the banner to redeem free case or even the wireless charger. Flipkart purchase. What's going on?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] vin4yak:
They're out of cases too :silly:
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotResponding22:
Guys, if you don't know already, you should get the Music app by Samsung from the play store. I don't know why it wasn't built in but it is default app and works pretty nicely with cool edge lighting visualisation.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sukhi:
Instead of the Play Store, use the Galaxy App Store. It gets updated more frequently.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] funtoosh:
Subscribed and using Google Play Music it's really good and it even synchs with my Moto 360 second gen perfectly

Also just got tracking details for the FREE WIRELESS Charger :o and it's being shipped from Bhiwandi not Chennai
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] praveen6585:
Damn.. Even i got the Tumi case coupon. Had ordered from flipkart on 22nd April. What stupidity is this from Samsung. I already have a case and i'm sure most others who have prebooked and received the phone might have already bought a case.

I see on the Samsung site that the Tumi case is mentioned as a offer for those booking after 5th May.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aman Banka:
At least you guys are getting some or the other banner, here I'm stuck with Rs.7000 off banner since past 4-5 days. ??
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] rajat_delhi:
I pre-ordered, bought and activated on 3rd. Got the banner for wireless charger just now. If 72hrs have passed from your activation date or you are getting incorrect offer, send an email to my.galaxy@samsung.com with the Subject : Wireless Charger Code Not Received

and enclose the following details.

1. Registered Phone Number

2. Registered Email

3. Phone S/N

4. Phone IMEI
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] funtoosh:
You probably used different number while ordering and used different number when signing up in galaxy app, better call their customer care
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] S6EdgeIndia:
For those who haven't got banner to redeem Wireless charger yet, have you setup and added any card in Samsung Pay? That too is required to redeem charger.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] rajat_delhi:
No
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] praveen6585:
Did you get these steps from Customer care? This is what i got -

After approximately 4 days of registering for the My galaxy app. You will be able to see the the coupon for Wireless charger. This is according to the terms and conditions. So I would suggest you to wait for 2 more days and If the issue still persists, we have a dedicated team available for this. You can get in touch with them at 1800407267864, choose language option and then press 5 to connect with them directly. You can also email them at support.estore@samsung.com to get the exact details
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] S6EdgeIndia:
Then please activate Samsung Pay and register a card/UPI/Paytm. I can't see old TnC page on the site/flipkart but it was mentioned on their.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nisarpari:
I added cards and all... Still no banner!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotResponding22:
That is not required anymore. They changed the method.

Guys see news over at XDA, seems some S8 models have UFS 2.0 storage instead of UFS 2.1. More here : https://www.xda-developers.com/the-...axy-s8s8-varying-between-ufs-2-1-and-ufs-2-0/

I checked mine and fortunately it is UFS 2.1. Use material terminal to fire up those commands.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] abthegreat:
My order has also shipped from Bhiwandi via Ecom Express.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] funtoosh:

Congrats, I will have to wait till Monday it seems.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] rajat_delhi:
Does it have the charger included or just the type C adapter?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] sheokand25:

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] abthegreat:
Packaging looks different to all the western youtube unboxings. Anything else in the box other than the stand? wall adapter and or cable ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nisarpari:
Seems like wireless charger banner issue with Flipkart purchase mainly.. My friend bought two s8.. One from Flipkart and one from Samsung offline store.. He got it from offline store on May 4th 7:30PM only... Means.. Last hours of pre order offer...

Now his Flipkart purchased s8 showing tumi cover, but he already redeemed coupon in store purchased s8.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mayank shekhar:


---------- Post added at 11:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:24 AM ----------

No cables or wall adapter. Only a Type C converter is included apart from the charger.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] sheokand25:
Just now talked to Samsung customer care and they confirmed that flipkart customers are getting back cover coupons by mistake. They asked to Mail the screenshot is that coupon msg we are getting to my.galaxy@samsung.com with above mention details....this the only solution as per them.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] testimony:
Hey I wanted to know if everyone over here have received their preorders for the midnight black s8 placed after 28th? Please let me know so that I can talk to samsung about it
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotResponding22:
How's your battery life guys? I'm not satisfied much with my S8. Please share details as what resolution you use, AoD is on or off and stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] funtoosh:
Battery like is OK, I am using default settings but it's nothing extraordinary like few users are claiming, though in power saving mode I think we can get good battery
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aman Banka:
To all those who are waiting to see free offer banner or are getting free case offer, it looks like Samsung has finished the free Wireless Charger offer.

In T&C's, Samsung has clearly stated that they have the right to withdraw this offer anytime without prior notice or change the offer product.

So, the only thing we can do is try mailing Samsung at my.galaxy@samsung.com asking for free wireless charger code or be satisfied with what they are giving.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotResponding22:
The pre-order offer ended on 4th May but for the people who ordered devices before that have time till 30th June or May (Not sure) to set up the My Galaxy app
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] funtoosh:
I don't think Samsung will just not keep it's own word, most likely it's just an error, better contact Samsung
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] whosaysjohn:
Got my wireless charger delivered in the morning...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Dpk1:
So finally, I got my free wireless charger banner in my galaxy app! Apparently not having any balance in my airtel sim (prebooking number), despite it being active for data and calls, was the culprit in my case.

Yesterday evening I recharged my airtel number with 50, switched off the phone, ejected the sim tray, pushed it back in place and switched on my phone. Immediately, an sms was sent (to samsung) registering my device (apparently). Today, in the morning the wireless charger banner appeared.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nisarpari:
Talked with Samsung care guy... He said there is a software bug on their side and it will be okay by Monday. So lets see.

Regarding wireless banner!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] vin4yak:
Awesome. Thanks for reaching out and sharing the update here :)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aman Banka:
Looks like I will have to do the same. My docomo number has zero balance, just recharged, will wait for sometime now. Hope this helps.

Anyone ordered the wireless charger on 4th but still not shipped ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ilordvader:
How much did u pay for it

& where did you order it from

is it the one with Type C ?

Please
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] vin4yak:
Pretty sure he's referring to the free wireless charger you get for pre-orders. You can buy one at Samsung's estore for Rs. 4500
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] saj2001ind:
The new charger which is given free is priced 4.5k
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] vin4yak:
Yeah, you're right.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ilordvader:
Thanks

its cheaper here

in dubai its for around 5300

Hi all,

i need some help in selecting back cover and front cover, i ordered two back cover on is spigen slim fit and another,

and i also ordered Samsung LED Cover too, so my question is which is best..?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] yash92duster:
Sammy wants us to keep using bloat apps:p:silly:

So did you decide to buy s8 or s8+?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] funtoosh:
I've also ordered LED Cover and i'm going to use LED cover for a while as it looks something different, the regular back cover will just make your mobile look like any other android smartphone, but this LED cover will still give a look of a high end phone and it is even secure, even don't need a screen guard

Is the Samsung store down currently? Getting a 403 Forbidden error. Was the S8 such a big hit that it brought down the server?! Lol!

Anyway, I redeemed the charger coupon on Thursday, but have not got any updates after that. Wondering if customers in Maharashtra will get the wireless charger shipped from Bhiwandi, or from Chennai.

Actually on Flipkart process does States to add cards to Samsung pay

But that's not necessary seems anyways there is no harm doing it.. Samsung pay is one best feature of this phone
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotResponding22:
I did add Paytm on it, no good. I still haven't got the banner and I've got the phone for 4 days now.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] saj2001ind:
Why don't U try clearing data of my galaxy app and set it up again with same number I used to pre book

Also check if it mobile data is working sometimes ppl report that's an issue also
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] newdon07:
Same with me, mine is an offline purchase, prebooked on 25th. its been 3-4 days, m also waiting for samsung wireless charger banner.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] jass619:
I got the free wireless charger banner on Thursday and redeemed it immediately. But it hasn't been shipped yet . The status shows that the order is confirmed. Maybe they are out of stock ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotResponding22:
I did everything to the app, logged out of it, cleared cache and data, disabled and enabled it. Mobile data to be on the from the number they've registered with them?

I had emailed Samsung and they are saying that I have not inserted the SIM in, but I have xD
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] saj2001ind:
Mine also same not shipped yet but for some it's even delivered

---------- Post added at 02:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:31 PM ----------

That's too bad buddy.... You sure the offline store registered ur number in their pre ordering app?

Bcoz if that's messed up it won't work
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotResponding22:
I didn't order it offline, I ordered it from Flipkart. And I'm pretty sure Samsung has my number cuz in the email they said that we have this number registered but you haven't inserted the SIM.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] saj2001ind:
That's too bad then contact Flipkart and tell them it's their issue
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotResponding22:
I did contact them the first time, they told me to contact Samsung and that we have given the credentials to them. Samsung told me to have that SIM in slot 1 too. This happened yesterday and I've had the SIM inserted since then. Now today Samsung says I've not inserted the SIM xD
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] smnrock:
Hope that sim has some balance left to send SMS?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotResponding22:
Yes it does. A lot xD

---------- Post added at 10:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:28 AM ----------

Can anyone show what SMS gets sent to Samsung? The registration one?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] smnrock:
And same number is registered in my galaxy app as well right? Maybe try resetting phone once and setup once again by inserting the sim in slot 1
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotResponding22:
Yeah I've kept that as the last resort if nothing works, so I'll wait a while before doing that. And yes it's the same number in the app. They've given me time till 30th June.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] vin4yak:
Which email id did you use? I emailed them on mygalaxy@samsung.com and my.galaxy@samsung.com. But they haven't reverted back and this was 2 days ago.

The way they're handling this is simply ridiculous.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] funtoosh:
It's a weekend i would suggest to wait till Monday Evening and also call them tomorrow

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotResponding22:

Even I got the same reply, not inserted the SIM.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Samsung fanatic:
I've been patiently waiting for the "free wireless charger" banner to show up for the past 5 days. I ordered by phone from a retail shop (offline store). Tried everything from swapping sims to resetting my phone. Still no luck.. cannot comprehend the complexity involved here.. kinda giving up.. .
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] saj2001ind:
That's frustrating, check with offline store guy if they did ur pre booking properly in their app
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Samsung fanatic:
Think he kinda did. Asked me to verify the information before submitting the data.. all that's left to do is to reach out to Samsung. With the responses folks are sharing here like "sim not inserted," is not giving me too much confidence either...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] saj2001ind:
Ask the store guy to show u their app sometimes those illiterate guys don't do these properly
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] NotResponding22:
I sent them the screenshot of the SIM manager page showing I've inserted the SIM.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] vvijkumar:
I recieved banner instantly all i did was used the samsung id which is same as email id used to receive notifications inserted sim which i gave in shipping address in slot 1 , added a card to samsung pay from the bank account i payed to preorder and logged into my galaxy app swiped left and right the banners and it appeared, ordered the wireless charger:laugh::good:
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aman Banka:
I did the same. Waiting for reply.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Dpk1:
Make sure that the prebooking number the offline store submitted to samsung is correct. Just confirm your email id too. Also, you need to have some balance in your sim - a paid sms is sent to Samsung automatically when inserted for the first time (kind of very important step for free wireless charger banner to appear in my galaxy app). Lastly, try to set up my galaxy app via your mobile data (instead of using wifi). Hope it helps.
