My screen is cracked also. dropped it right before the recall was announced. I'm wondering if they will allow me to swap at Verizon even with the screen busted?
My cases arrived yesterday. I dont like otterboxes. I ordered Spigens from amazon
The cracks are small..but noticeable. Got out of the car with it in my lap
Just got this from TMO I love TMO

I wonder if they'll offer another gift?
Returned mine for a full refund but it wasn't really even because of the recall. More because the phone had a good bit of lag and it cost more than what it was worth. Took it back to Sprint, full refund with no questions asked.
I made that mistake once, now I buy cases before I get the phone. Prime shipping helps.
I put my phone in my front pocket too.
Would've blew my dick off.
Same here. Screen protectors and cases. I don't fuck with them ugl'ass, big ass Otterbox cases.
I used to get Otterbox cases back in the day, because they were in the store and convenient. Joints are bulky and awful looking. Just a big hunk of rubber on your phone.
Amazon is doing full refunds immediately. You don't even have to return the phone right now
also
If you purchased accessories for this phone on Amazon.com, we can help you return and get a refund on those items.

That's real cool of Amazon.
Yeah a lot of people said they not fuckin with Best Buy like that anymore. At least for phones.Yeah, seeing how these companies are handling this is making me keep track of who I want to fuck with in the future.
I've gotten almost all my phones from Best Buy, because I always pre-ordered from them. This one I ordered straight from AT&T, because you get your phone a little early and I can set up my phones myself. Plus a couple of times I had a little wait at Best Buy.
Yeah I heard a few people lately complain about them.amazon stay clutch w/ the returns...surprised to hear best buy acting up tho
Samsung should have let shit just ride out. 35 defective phones out of 2.5 million sold world wide. Or 24 out of every million sold was defective. That is what Apple would have done. It's an inconvenience but not a deal breaker for me.
Any recall program takes a few weeks to implement and that is too long to go with out a phone.
If your phone is defective it's right out the box, out the gate from the jump or straight from the assembly production line...... it's never days or weeks later. If you ain't one of those 35 people whose phone battery exploded while charging, then your good. A defect in the battery will show itself right away, not days or weeks later.
My note 7 works fine after 7 days of use including full charging by the way.
Yours Truly..... Professor
So now an exploding samsung phone thread becomes an anti-apple thread?
I swear, you niggas are more bitchmade than the fanboys that camp out in line.
Keep that joint on speaker mode fam...Bluetooth, headphones, etc etc. Good Luck playa.Your brand loyalty is sickening.
I'm PISSED OFF! I've forked out 896.940 USD on Pre-Order and now this news? IDK fellas....should I wait for the new LG V20? Or should I go to the DARKSIDE with APPLE???
This happens to any kind of front loader. Samsung happens to be one of the better manufacturers out there of appliances along with TV equipment. I can't down them if 35 out of 2.5 million phones were damaged. I think one should congratulate them on repairing a problem from the gate and not covering up a situation as many companies do.
Side bar that Apple fan boys forget as well is that Samsung makes the chips in Apple phones.
Im gonna be real...i've had galaxies for a while now.. notes, S5, S6...but for me I still think that these phones have too much lag to be a $900 device. I already know people are going to say, don't use touchwiz, get nova launcher, etc. But I just don't feel as if I should have to do that shit for a phone that costs this much. Depending on what you're doing the lag is definitely noticeable and it was the same way with the last 2 galaxy phones i've had. Honestly considering switching to that new Moto phone or maybe the V11. Having to replace the launcher on a phone that expensive is just some bullshit.
people over charge their phone. I wait til mine get to 30% then charge. I never charge after it hit 100
well see. I aint returning my shit. To inconvenient.That's not how technology is supposed to work. There is no such thing as overcharging. Yes, it can be full but leaving it on in charge shouldn't be a safety hazard and isn't even acceptable by any means.

which is why I take it off as soon as its charged. I never charge over night. Doing it they way I do I've never felt abnormal heat from the phone. Like you said it charges quick. No need to leave it in. I even unplug my fire stick. I noticed it getting too hot if I leave in.People forget about their phone and now this has fast charging, so it's charged in like an hour. It's understandable.
I don't remember beyond my last couple of phones, but this phone gets unusually hot to me when charging.

Samsung may announce a global recall of the device. The production of the Note 7 has been halted for further testing. Speculations point to third party chargers and USB-C connecters.

Apple is most likely having a blast with this one.
Good for them for getting rid of the removable battery..
On mine right now
Loving it so far
I put my phone in my front pocket too.
Would've blew my dick off.
