Mine is so choppy and laggy I often just give up using it and put it away, various apps crash daily, I'm lucky to get 2 hours screen on time with the battery, it overheats often to the point where it's uncomfortable to hold, and the camera might be able to get 2 HDR shots in a row before stopping to process. I have not rooted or done anything funny other than enable the system UI tuner menu. Exchange it. That is not a normal 6P.

WhyteRyce posted:Is there an actual reason why Google is incapable of making something similar to iMessage other than being stubborn? Why did they remove combined SMS conversations in Hangouts if they weren't going to replace the functionality in the new app? I can only imagine that Google still exist in a reality circa 2004 where only Those loving Hipsters use iToys because they're sheep who buy shiny new devices like the ads say like good sheeple  Bah! Look at those idiots enjoying seamless messaging across all their devices (that works with their friends on other platforms, too). They don't even have an AI to show local restaurant reviews and start countdown timers in THEIR device's messaging client!!

Windows PCs are supposedly pretty rare, however.

It was, and does, but they hid it for some reason. You can use Night Mode Enabler to get it to show back up. Took a lot of fiddling with the app and settings before I got it working.

Another 6p without problems user reporting in. Smooth a butta, fast as heck. I'm moving soon so I let my wired internet lapse until I'm in my new place, so it's also been serving as my home router (which does drain the battery noticeably faster).

I am curious about the new pixel, and I like how cheap the Axon 7 is... I want to be able to switch from IOS... but iMessage. I got an iPad and MacBook Pro. Seamless messaging is super important to me. If Google can't figure out how to do it, I guess I'll get a new iPhone in Winter.

If I'm reading in bed with the lights off, it will turn constantly turn the display up and down, belatedly reacting to the reflected light of the display itself. I had to turn the whole thing off. It sucks cause I got the tablet solely for reading comics and adaptive display was one of the features that I wanted cause changing the brightness on my old Nook was a huge pain.

This green battery icon   e: vvvvv lmao for real? Samsung Canada's exchange program told me on the phone to keep all the accessories, even the S-Pen, and just return the bad phone in the provided box. CLAM DOWN fucked around with this message at 22:25 on Sep 21, 2016 |

Reading the note 7 subreddit and the Verizon exchange process is pretty infuriating. They will strip accessories from box if you don't bring them back and the craziest is people having to pay more tax on exchange.

If Samsung had gone with using Rogers here for the exchange/recall, and Rogers hosed it up like they definitely would because they're the perfect combo of greedy and incompetent, I would not blame Samsung, I would blame Rogers. So I guess, keep on keeping on.

I saw an article that had the actual recall numbers in them. Canada had a whopping 22,000 Note 7 devices to swap nationwide vs over 1 million in the US. Scale absolutely is the issue. It's almost as if Samsung doesn't employ enough support infrastructure in larger countries. Here's what appears to be happening. Samsung is not issuing recall inventory, they are just issuing out new fixed inventory to the carriers to do with as they see fit. Because of the recall, the return policy is basically extended indefinitely. So, Note 7 owners are doing retail exchanges at stores. Due to the way sales tax works, the tax rate is fixed a the retail location the sale is made. If the person originally purchased online, the sales tax would have been fixed to their home address. When they go do a retail swap, the sales tax is based on the location of the store. That's not something Verizon has control over, it's state sales tax law. So, Samsung is approaching the recall by stuffing the sales channel in the US with revised Note 7s, hoping to cover new inventory and recall inventory all at once. By taking that approach, Samsung is forcing customers to undergo a retail exchange on devices (essentially returning and re-purchasing) with all the pitfalls that entails. bull3964 fucked around with this message at 01:27 on Sep 22, 2016 |
