Anyone else find it weird that Note 7's were catching fire dang near daily then all of the sudden after Samsung issues a recall, they stop. Not trickle off. Literally STOP. Can't find 1 single report of a fire after October 11th.
There have been a few, since reported here. One from the 15th. It makes sense. Most of the ones that are going to fail already have, and many are out of circulation and we sure wouldn't hear from Samsung about any of those. It doesn't change anything, I'm glad I eventually returned mine after being in denial for a while.

I can't find the one from October 15th anywhere. I've searched and searched and searched. And even at that, I disagree that the ones that will have caught fire have. It doesn't really make sense that the reports would just literally STOP on one day. Even in recall situations, they trickle off as people return devices/etc. These reports stopped.
There was one in Malaysia, one in Singapore, one in UK and another one which I can't remember where, but it was posted on reddit by the victim's wife. It is probably still happening but people keep it to themselves as Samsung cleared itself of responsibility.
These threads need to stop. There are multiple under this same topic already and when the examples were posted they were ignored. Most people aren't using them anymore. Those who are are using them differently.
There's no conspiracy here. Samsung is privy to way more reports than we will ever know as they saw the return data. They made the decision based on this info and not media info to recall them.
Here's one from the q and a section where the post titles that end with question marks go.

Give me the freedom to have a different opinion about how many users are still using them, about conspiracy or whatever it is and the rest. Samsung still doesn't have any idea whit what was happened. And if you are underestimating the impact created by the media then... take a look at what's happening in US election now. But you are right about the thread.

All I'm saying is consider the fact they see all of the returns. We see just the ones that hit the press. They made the choice based on what they were seeing. I think they had a better idea of the volume/scale of the problem and wouldn't have issued a final recall and stopped production otherwise.
If it was just the US media they could have opted to recall only the us versions and leave the rest of the world market intact. Instead, they recalled all note 7.

simple, the news media got bored of that story and moved on to have fun with the US Elections.
it's all about the viewer ratings.
explosions and fires still happens, you just don't hear about it, since no news media is reporting on it.

If they stopped happening and there's no more news coverage, why would Samsung and carriers be blocking the note 7 outright and/or pushing updates to hobble the phone. Oh that's right...they determined the phone to be faulty and dangerous.

The proof is in the fact that Samsung will work it's hardest to get that note out of your hands. First with os updates. Second with carrier blocks. They don't want you to have the phone they made. That's proof enough.

That i's a pretty childish argument... Samsung made an OFFICIAL recall. When it's official it's official and that's it. But even Samsung can't reproduce in lab the problem. And THAT is a big question mark for us. The phone is so faulty and dangerous that even after two months we keep using them without a single problem. ))

No name calling was made sir so I don't appreciate your tone. The facts are the facts. Recall was official and yes they are hobbling phones by limiting charge of all to 60% and also now we have carriers who disabled note 7's across the board. I understand you don't like those facts or agree with them but I would appreciate it if you refrain from name calling.
My point is that Samsung would not be going to all these steps if the problem were mere phantom in nature.

I was a little ironic thinking about the current situation... We still use them even if they say they are dangerous and nothing is happening now. Don't take it personally. Read again my lines and yours and you will see what I'm talking about. When a recall is made that it... they have to take back everything. Even if we like it or not. I agree with that. But the facts are on both sides. The arguments the same. The single problem is WE KNOW something wrong. And we want answers from Samsung. I don't want to talk about the media... they where overreacting about the whole situation. And all of us we know what's happening when they do that. I'm not relaying on media because i don't trust them. I'm relaying on my own knowledge because I'm working in this industry from more than 25 years. And that is my opinion. If you want a technical discussion about that you're very welcome. But again... please, don't take it personally.

A number of blogs/tech sites are saying invitations have been sent out for a "Google Play" event in New York tomorrow (24th October) at 19.00hrs local time (0:00hrs 25th October BST (UK time)). That part seems to be definite.
Tech Radar say that they were told by Google it was just a meet & greet event, so no launches. But what some others are saying is that Kitkat 4.4, Nexus 5 & Nexus 10 2 might be launched at this event. Kitkat I think is an outside possibility, Nexus 5 & Nexus 10 2 not so much.
So far we have only rumours/speculation as to when these products (& OS) might be launched. I'm not stating this as gospel. But I thought it worth posting just in case even if it is only for Kitkat. And people would at least be forewarned in case they live stream it.

Sorry but these websites (IBTimes, Christian Post, etc) it's referring to are little better than a webcrawler putting together information that looks kind of like an article. They frequently just make up random crap to get clicks for their site and vicariously, ads. I would wait for a site such as android central or droid life to make some kind of announcement. As of right now, all official information is that the event will feature no news at all, and is just a small get together.

Oh there's nothing wrong with that. I'm doing the same thing. I wish they'd turn around and say "psych! Everything will will be there! But I don't see them doing that.
Now that Apple has released the iPad Air, it puts them on the defensive end though. The more time that passes, the more likely people will overlook the Nexus 10. I'm not entirely sure Google cares though. They've already infiltrated the Apple ecosystem with most of their apps. Google's strategy is certainly one of slow, constant persistence. These tablets and phones are a kickback to people who support them I think, not a direct competitor with any other brands tablets. That's how it seems to me anyways.
Hopefully they don't keep us waiting too long. I sold the N10 in anticipation for this, and I've been waiting patiently for a while now. Come on Google.... don't wander into the world of Valve time....
We;; is 8:38 and no news about the event. It hasn't been streamed on youtube like other times and thers no updated blog about it either. Also theres been lots of errors with google services today? Coincidence? or could they have had some issues? Hopefully we'll know what went on in the conference by tomorrow but it most likely wan't any of the devices since it wasn't public.
Very suspicious that we've heard nothing I think.
I wonder if they did something huge and its all under embargo until a certain time?
Its quite odd to not hear anything from any of the major tech sites.

Haven't seen this posted at all... Figured I'd start up a thread on it.
http://www.phonearena.com/news/New-...-Snapdragon-820-4GB-RAM-and-Android-N_id80593
To be honest, I find it quite odd. At this point I wonder if it's just for testing purposes. I can't see this being released in the middle of the original Nexus 6P, and HTC's end of year Nexus. Maybe it isn't much effort to take the same phone, swap out the CPU and add Memory if that's all they're doing.
I can see the Nexus 6P 810/3GB dropping to $399, and 820/4GB starting at $499 *if* they proceed to release this to public. Then again, that could hurt their late year phone release if those specs aren't going to be much greater.
Thoughts, comments?
it's too far. I mean, htc is new choice for Google (probably)
but maybe Huawei make some device like n6p and s820 & 4G ram with name like Huawei p7! or something like that! because Chinese company have a great benefits from n6p and this make sense.
obviously Huawei without Google doesn't worth a dime or peanuts! ?

It might actually be happening according to this article: Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 (S820) vari...ant-of-nexus-6p-listed-on-geekbench-20160428/
And it seems they are giving some of the same reasons that I gave as to why it might be being made.
It's sad that the 6P is suffering real issues and they are sidestepping responsibility by releasing another phone. If they don't take care of current 6P owners who are experiencing issues by offering them this phone for free, that will leave a bad taste in my mouth for Google and Huawei.
It should be a 6P 2016 Model.
I don't find it far fetched at all, that there's in all likelihood a successor phone to the 6P from Huawei, still under Google's "umbrella".
Google has done this previously with other devices, maybe now they're doing incremental updates to their smartphone options.
I will buy this phone if this appears to be true. A perfect phone.

I think it's highly unlikely that they put out a 820 version of the 6P.

The truth hurts, eh? They are non-issues because you don't have them? Good way of thinking. They are real issues that some people are having, the article isn't pulling the issues out of thin air.
And it's you that I'm having a hard time believing. People simply aren't making up these issues but you still don't believe it while it's so black and white.
Usually phones that show up on Geekbench end up a reality. I'm sure you will be the one who says they are releasing a new version of the phone so they can put a Snapdragon 820 in it. Which they simply wouldn't spend the time and money on just to do that. There definitely are deeper issues to make them spend the time and money to release this phone.
People who already spent their hard earned cash on a 6P will have a hard time believing or admitting it, but that's obviously happening here.
So who's the dramatic one here? I'm posting links of what's actually happening and you keep saying the same thing over and over denying the multiple issues that this phone has. Just because these issues aren't affecting you doesn't mean they aren't real. Just because you don't have cancer doesn't mean it isn't real. Same general idea. It is real, it just doesn't affect everyone.
Good luck with your 6P.
P.S. This is obviously going nowhere and it just leads to fights, so I'm just gonna leave this alone as is. I've said my piece and I know this phone isn't guaranteed to come out. Good luck to you all and I hope Google and/or Huawei takes care of you if this is true. Peace.

After a bit of thinking about it. It may not be Nexus branded, but released the same time as the next Nexus device.
Huawei probably won't be receiving source code as early as HTC will for their Nexus devices. If this is the case, I'd say expect the Huawei 6P's successor with this 820/4GB to not receive updates as quick as this one. That's my best guess right now.

You posting links of random rumours and taking it for a fact, what are you even rambling about? And what does that have to do with anything anyway? Just because someone releases updated version of the phone it means it was defected? What about galaxy a5, a9? Each year a new one with better cpu, were they defected? Were samsung tablets with same name defected? Your logic is non existant here. And just because you hate the phone doesnt mean its bad. Just because you had a defected one doesnt mean its bad build quality. By your logic every single smartphone in the market is defected, because there are few users with problems lol. Galaxy s7 had gaps between chassis and glass, home button is scratching very easy, some users had grounding issue where recent apps would press by itself because finger was touching bottom of phone. So because there were few users with problems means galaxy s7 is flawed and broken device, and if samsung releases s8 it means they are silently admitting build issues? Thats your logic, read that and undestand how ridiculous it is.

I've never said people aren't experiencing real issues (like they do with any device), and I've admitted that I think the bending/twisting/whatever is something that shouldn't be happening. But again, you're exaggerating and being overdramatic.
The article you're referring to like it's some damning write-up on nexus 6P issues - mentions (4) issues - let's have a look:
Easily bent
Spontaneous cracking of the glass visor
Low volume
Video playback problem
...which the article states right after listing those that "We know most of them have been fixed already".
How many of those are issues are plaguing users? Please elaborate on all these huge nexus 6P issues - I'd like to see your list.
You're basing your argument on an article that named four issues then said that most of them were fixed. And three of them have hardly been posted about in this forum or anywhere I've seen.
And I'm not sure about the whole geekbench thing. When have they ever put a nexus variant out like this? I guess we'll see. I'd welcome it, it'd give me another option.
The purpose is to start this thread is people can post when they got their replacement? what type of problems they facing during replacement. Try and include the following.
Carrier?
Any difference in the boxes?
Store or via mail?
Location? (city / state)
Note 7 owners have a few different options when it comes to the recalled Note 7. Here's what you need to know about How to replace Samsung Galaxy Note 7
Thanks!

Congrats :good: . Enjoy your handset.
Note7 replacement devices still at risk of overheating eported to a local television news network. The exact amount of complaints submitted to Samsung remains unknown. Do you guys found this problem in your exchanged device or not ?

looks like this product has endless issues
any one of you guys who received replacement already experienced any sort of issues Battery, Overheat, boot-loop ....etc ?
please share your feedback
Thanks
The few affected models are being sold in Asia. My new US phone is fine.

No reason for replacement, many news its fake..no prove for burning, so im not change my note7, 26 cases exploding its liar from some people needed fast money from sue samsung
pure BS about the problems with exchanged devices, they are even reporting a case of a note 2 burning!
I received my replacement in the mail on the 15th. It's been fine, other than the occasional stutter and lag. Stupid SD820.
The heat is on the charger this time. Even when fast charging feature is disabled. I'd expect the charger to get warm. Though my Note7 has already been replaced and firmware updated, I still disable fast charging to keep the battery from stress.

No, aside from the (still relatively small) number of fire incidents that has since been resolved with the recall, this product has no more issues than ANY other phone. It just has endless dumb journalists who jump on the hype bandwagon reporting anything that might just connect the story to a Samsung device, blowing it completely out of proportion just to get viewers/readers/clicks. All that achieves is endless knee jerk reactions from the ignorant authorities and technology illiterate public.
Even on XDA people generally come here to vent frustration about either hardware/software issues on their particular device (that's every phone XDA caters for) or to complain about a manufacturer of said device. Giving the impression that their phone is just a complete failure.
Stop worrying about news reports, enjoy your phone. In the very unlikely event you get a dud, get it replaced or refunded. Importantly, come back here and let people know how great it is! It's an awesome phone!
Eventually all this BS scare mongering will die down and we can put it behind us.

Here, here!
It is a shame, this amazing device will not get to people who could have had a great Smartphone. But this means the next Note will really be worth waiting for. The Note 7 will be the first device that my wife and I both have, she asked for it when she saw what you can do with the S Pen and digital paint.
Got my replacement today. Can't find the display scaling option in the updated firmware for the life of me.

Still waiting for the official recall, hoping Samsugn provide a discount or cash back to make this right with consumers. I'm pissed at Sammy though this is some BS.

At this point they need to do something big. Heavy discount on the future N8 or something like it but i dont think they will do anything special. They already lost a lot, they may just risk losing future business with hope people will return

Yeah I think they may do nothing as well, but if they have followed any other famous recalls, going above and beyond to keep customers effected by defective products happy, good a long way. Look at Toyota and Tylenol for passed cases.
If they do the right thing it will make the brand stronger. If they leave 2 million customers out to dry, they will feel the damage to their reputation for years, across multiple product lines not just phones.
If take a discount on an S7e or a future discount on a S8e or a Note8 just something to show they actually care to keep my business.
Yeah, they better do something cause this is embarrassing. To go through another recall... Shesh. The jokes are endless and it's becoming annoying to know that some devices are melting. Makes it uncomfortable to have this device, and I don't want to switch! This phone is too good.
Because I love the device SO much, I was not listening too much around the replacements having issues too, but THIS kind of did me in.
"Consumers with either an original Galaxy Note7 or replacement Galaxy Note7 device should power down and stop using the device and take advantage of the remedies available."

It turns out they made a profit this quarter. Didn't lose much from this. Watch the latest WAN show from LinusTechTips. They talk about it.

I'm going to hold on as long as I can. If the unlikely were to happen, and I can get Nougat, it will be until my normal phone rotation. I don't fly, don't have kids at home, and my phone is always with me and not unattended, so don't feel like I'm putting anyone or myself at risk. I just don't like any of the options at this time. Everyone here knows it's a great phone and nothing compares right now. Just a darn shame.
I thought the same. Then the email came through. "Your phone has been recalled. Someone is coming Thursday evening between 6 and 9 to pick it up. Have the phone ready. The end".

You must be joking - unless of course you initiated a return. If someone came to my door out of the blue asking for my $800+ phone, I would fall down laughing.
I did not initiate a return, no.
No joke I'm afraid. I didn't even schedule a pick up either. They told me, with out me contacting them.
Sure, if someone came out or the blue and you didn't know who they were. Of course not!
But this isn't some random dude. I bought my phone from Samsung direct. Technically they haven't charged me yet either. So I don't plan on getting a £730 bill for and end of life phone this close to Christmas no matter how much I love it.
Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
Well that is just outrageous! It is something of a loophole that you haven't been charged for it yet. Also I think you're in the UK and consumer laws might differ from US. Think that's a very odd way for them to handle it.
is there a test that we could make for verify if our Note 7 is safe or not? I think samsung it has surrended after the double fool, but could it be possible that all our note 7 are defective? I think no, not all, and that samsung can't continue to find a solution, but we? We surrender? I do not want to.
The test i thinked is to use a navigator app for at least 1 hour on morning under sun.
In that conditions usually the phone that I use become very very very hot.
What do you think?

Until the exact cause of the failure is known, it can't be tested for. You're assuming heat is the cause. This is probably true, but not proven, and even if it is true, there could be secondary conditions necessary to cause the battery failure.

Bullsh*t? Don't think so. Guy turned up at my door in the alloted time window. I did NOT initiate the return, Samsung assumed they could collect it at their pleasure.
damn, if they tried that crap in America they would likely get shot.

That is an extreme measure. But at least UK is taking it seriously.
Here in SG, Samsung is taking their own sweet time.

Yep...however Johnny Cash only did the song "I won't back down" as a cover. It was originally Tom Petty's song who had a much better version.
