Received my FedEx tracking # for the 99$ Bundle a few hours ago. Will be delivered Tuesday!!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] tool2269:
When did you place your order
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] billy06107:
Received my s8+ pre-order on the 19th from AT&T. Submitted through the shop Samsung app on the 20th and was approved 24 hrs later on the 21st with an email which included a link to choose which I wanted and to pay. So I placed the Immersive Bundle order on the 21st
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] sebastianraven:
Well, they took my credit card and I have been charged. Now the 6-8 week wait.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] `SBR`:
Got my package today.....

Havent tested it...
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jestexman:
Same here.. Was gonna upload a pic but it looks just like yours..
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] sebastianraven:
That's awesome. When did you guys place your orders?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jestexman:
20th..
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] ProStreetCamaro:
Everything in the kit is excellent. Headphones are comfortable and sounds great through Bluetooth. Memory card is super fast 90 read and write basically and the gear VR works great. Super happy with everything!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] goobyjr9:
Just got my tracking number! Ordered on the 20th.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] OF2:
I'll share what I know for those waiting. If you recieved an approval status update for the $99.00 you should be locked in. If you paid and the funds were pulled from your account then you order should ship.

1. Register (24-48 hours approval or 2 weeks)

2. Approved Email (2-3 days to receive pay for order email)

3. Paid (1-2 weeks before shipped notice

4. 2 day shipping via FedEx

Hope that helps resets expectations. This is all from reading across several online sources. Nothing concrete, just what seems to be trending.

I registered on the 19th. Got approved on the 20th. Recieved pay for item email on the 21st. Paid on the 21st. Was pending in account over the weekend and showed charged on the 24th. No updates emailed or reflected in Samsung App. I recieved order shipped email today. Order scheduled to arrive 05/02.

I did everything through the app.

Thanks for the eye candy. Helps make the wait easier. Or worse. No easier. Ugh.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] jestexman:
I tested and its nice.. Oh and in the box is a card for your oculus free content.. it tells you just put this code in on the app.. well you can't just download the app.. you have to put your phone in the VR first and then it will download the app.. you have 2 choices either a game bundle or a entertainment bundle.. Some may know this already but i did not lol.. Earphones are nice sounding.. So far so good.. put them head phones on while using the VR and well you might as well be there..
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] mrjkwik:
I registered my device on the 20th. Registered for the promo on the 20th. Sent a screenshot of my best buy purchase online. They kicked it back on the 21st saying my purchase date wasnt in the screenshot...(keep in mind, i registered and sent the screenshot on the 20th, obviously BEFORE the pre order was up. I sent a new screenshot on the 21st. Received notice they received the fix. No other communication. Now when I go to the status checker, I got the sold out message and that my standard package is "gift processing". When initially registering I selected the $99. So, I no upgrade for me. Irritating.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] chuckboy1129:
Still haven't received anything on how to pay or order shipped
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Tidbits:
That means they took your registration not that you were approved.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] chuckboy1129:
When I called they said everything was correct. My stuff was done on the 19th there was no problems, but every time I call they say two weeks lol. And that I should still receive the $99 promo because I was already locked in on it.

Also when I check from the computer it says gift processing.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Tidbits:
Seriously. That's what that is for. When you get approved you'll see what I mean. The wording is terrible on that one.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] EJerVJerO:
Got my shipping info few hours ago.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Tidbits:
If it says gift processing then you should have gotten a different screen than the one you showed, and gotten an email. I wish I kept all my screenshots. Everything was worded as if it was written in Korean and they used a translator. They didn't bother cleaning up the grammar.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] tool2269:
Thanks. I paid on the 22nd with PayPal and my credit card was charged..but no order confirmation email or anything
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] sebastianraven:
The difference a day makes... I did mine on the 21st. Congrats.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] droidrev71:
Mine shipped today as well. Now if I could get hooked up with a S8 plus without pink on it I'd be set.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] AlwaysOnCall:
Prordered two S8+ through Sprint for the wife & I... We signed up for the bundle immediately upon receiving payment confirmation. We just received our bundles today.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Curtai:
I ordered and already received my bundle... the headphones are awesome as the sd card is great... the gear VR is a hassle though because my phone is in an otter box defender and it won't fit unless I remove it but what is the point of a 50$ case of the phone isn't in it...
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] tool2269:
Well I ordered the bundle on the 4/22... And just got a FedEx text it'll be delivered tomorrow.. 5/2. No email or order confirmation....and I'm assuming the package is the VR bundle and not something from Amazon since it weighs 5lbs
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] scoobrel:
Just got an email saying it will be delivered on 5/3. Ordered on the 21st. Its the same weight as yours.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] RMXO:
My $99 bundle will arrive tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] billinaz:
Strange since many who ordered on the 20th have heard nothing.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Tidbits:
I suspect it has something to do with the payment method. What payment method did people use.

Accepted and paid on the 21st and I used Samsung pay.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] scoobrel:
I used a debit card.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] ggrant3876:
Purchased the bundle on 4/20 and received it on 4/27, very satisfied with it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] topaz330:
I'm still in limbo, says I was approved 4/22 and nothing else after. I don't feel like waiting the 2 plus hours to even see whats going on. Pretty disappointing on how Samsung has handled this.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] tool2269:
Paid with PayPal... Ordered over the internet. Not sure I might keep mine if my wife's free VR comes in. Still waiting to see if hers was approved
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] M9x3mos:
Ordered mine on the 20th too. Paid with PayPal, got confirmation, but nothing shipped yet.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] TechBSwift:
Same here. Seems those who ordered and paid with paypal got screwed... I'm still waiting and I ordered mine on the 20th
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] MykOne:
I was approved on the 22nd and it still says Processing Gift
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] hugebulge:
I paid with PayPal and today mine switched to gift sent but I haven't gotten tracking info or email yet.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] billinaz:
So I dont know if I actually got the bundle ordered or not.

2 of my 3 orders on the samsungpromotions website show shipped (no shipping info).

On the Samsung.com order page I have 3 bundles listed as 'confirmed'. By looking a little further I can see that they are listed as 'preparing for shipment'. The pre-authorization on my card has since dropped off and I have not been charged.

I wish there was some way to find out exactly what is going on, but I gave up calling them after waiting hours on the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Healite:
I claimed my promo on the 20th but ordered it on the 21st and had it delivered the 27th. Only problem was they delivered it to a business somehow so I had to wait an extra day for FedEx to get my package back.

Edit: I paid with PayPal and had no issues payment-wise.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] icemanaccord:
I am in a similar boat Billinaz. Got the phone on the 20th and got link to purchase on the 21st. My status changed to ship today with no shipping info sent. My boss did the same but got link to buy on the night of the 20th. His claim status changed today also but got shipping info yesterday afternoon. I think we can all say that Samsung's systems are very flaky. Little boy can't wait for his Christmas present.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] ProStreetCamaro:
I used payapl and got my bundle a few days ago.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] nosympathy:
I used paypal and got mine yesterday. I also threw a fit with a rep about the fact people who registered after me were getting them before me, it shipped literally that evening.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] DECIM8:
So is everyone getting tracking information before they arrive?

I have been at "Gift Sent" for several days now but have received no tracking information. My card has not been charged either so I guess maybe that is an indication.

EDIT:

LOL, I swear every time I post in this thread the step in the process I am worried about happens. Literally 42 minutes after this post I got my shipping confirmation.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] billinaz:
I got a shipping notice! It seems that it is for three bundles.

I fought with the web ordering page but I was never able to place the order and then it invalidated the link.

After reading that people were having better luck with the app I tried that. I was able to see the promo and it allowed me to change the quantity. I selected 3 and it looks like it worked. 3 of the promos shipped!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] BleedCrimson:
Ordered on 22 April and got a shipping notification last night. I will be here on Friday!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] rogerandgina:

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Tidbits:
I just got notification from my CC company I was charged from Samsung(I have alerts setup for anything about $50). So I am guessing it ships today or Monday.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] nosympathy:
I got charged a solid week before mine shipped lol
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Tidbits:
I was charged on the 21st and then refunded on the 27th. I am 100% it wasn't a hold because if it was a hold my CC company wouldn't have sent a text for it.

I assumed at first it was because they "ran out" and then I was going to get the VR and that's it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Tidbits:
Just delivered. No notification nor tracking.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] chuckboy1129:
After all this time I just got the link to purchase the fully emmersive package
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] chuckboy1129:
I applied on the 19th of April
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] LSU316:
As did I. I ordered mine on 4/21 had to resubmit on 4/24 due to wrong receipt and got approved on 4/25. I just got the link to pay today. I wonder if they decided to make this right for everyone that requested the packaga that pre-ordered prior to 4/21.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] chidisstillfly:
I registered on April 24th and got an email yesterday saying my bundle will ship between 5/27 and 6/3
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] FluxionFluff:
Oh, this is hilarious and thought you should all know this update. So, I thought that I missed out on the $99 bundle, even though I was able to select it when I originally submitted my info for the offer, on 4/21 when I got my phone at Best Buy right when they opened.

BUT, turns out I was oh so wrong! I randomly decided to check the offer in the Shop Samsung app last night and I magically saw that I was able to see a link to purchase it.

Totally a WTF moment, for sure!! :eek: So, I was going through the checkout process and was gonna pay using Samsung Pay, and then... I accidentally closed the app, like an idiot. T.T When I went back in, the price jumped to $579...

I called Samsung last night and explained the whole situation and asked if they could send me a new code, because there's no way I'd want to pay $579 for the bundle. I got another email, but when I compared the two links on my laptop... It. Was. The. Same. Code. -___- I called just now and the woman I talked to said that several people have called in with the same issue, of the code not working.

I asked if I could buy it at $579 (plus tax) and they could refund me the difference as I don't wanna miss out on this opportunity (and I'll be even more pissed this time because I was THAT close to getting it). She said that several people had asked the same thing and she said that their supervisors said that they aren't allowed to give refunds like that because that's not how the promo works.

She said she escalated the issue to the people who send out the codes, since they're the only ones who give out codes. Should be getting a new code via email within 24-48 hours. other people have had the same problem, not just me, so that makes me feel slightly better, but I just hope it works out and I don't have to call... again, for a 3rd time for this issue. At least this rep gave me a ticket number as a reference if I have to call again.

This has been one crazy time with this offer.. Derp. D:

My OCD would be in overdrive if my phone was like that. I'd exchange it.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Bumpredd:
I completely understand, but it's my OCD that's also making me think twice about going for the exchange. I'm sure you are all too aware of the time it takes to get the phone set up just right: apps, sounds, accounts, launcher, behaviors, and all the other crap. I checked images from G6 reviews online and a few seem to match mine. Well hell, I'll wait and see if anyone else sees it on theirs. My eye keeps going to the edges now. Thanks for the feedback. It's nice to know I'm nuts but not alone.

Gave Resurrection a shot but had issues with my APN settings so I wanted to go back to my Epic ROM backup to copy the APN settings. When I booted into TWRP (Mr. Raines version) it mentioned something about entering a password to decrypt. It said it couldn't mount or something like that. After messing around a bit I was able to get my backup up. However, now I get this screen when I reboot and o can't write to system (like in Adaway) I'm a total loss here.

Anyone with FAST wifi do speed tests?

One of my issues with the S7E is its wifi was much slower than my Note 5.

My iPhone 7+ hits 600+ up and down on our wave2 AC wifi network here.

The S7E had fast LTE though. Fastest speedtest (Verizon) I recall was around 130 down and 50 up. That's smoking for LTE but bad if you don't have unlimited. LOL

[General Questions and Answers] omareg94:
How could I be able to build/port bugless Android 7 (Nougat) for MT65xx based devices (Specifically MT6582 device "Mine is Infinix Hot X507")? I am looking for building/porting a bugless Lineage OS/Resurrection Remix/AOSP/... latest release ROMs for my MT6582 device. I've no experience in building/porting Android ROMs. My question could be what are the topics/guides I need to learn from in order to have the skills of the person who is able to build/port a bugless Nougat version for my device?

It doesn't matter the topics/guides are for porting/building (also is it easy/hard), however the more convenient approach for me is the one by which I could have a bugless fully device-compatible ROM at the end.

I have good programming knowledge base and dealing with command line software. Also I will start learning Linux Kernel in few weeks after my exams.

I need your valuable help and suggestions. Thanks in advance. :)

Research/Outcomes till now:

■ I have read a little about porting. I understood that first I need a to-be-Port-ed ROM of another phone having the same CPU. I have found one here, but unfortunately it has some bugs. The publisher says that this version is unstable and needs someone to build it for MT6582. I'm looking for being able to have the skills to be that person :D.
