    Trade In Thread

    My return arrived in TX Friday, no cracked screen email. Instead I received the "Because we received an empty shipping box from you.. you will be charged". The same email I received last year as well! I contacted them via chat, shared all my pics and they reversed their decision. When I...

    Trade in stolen

    If Samsung didn't resolve it for me as easy as they did via chat I was going to dispute the charge on my CC. Maybe that's an option to for you?

    Trade in stolen

    The trade in amount varied based on the device your purchasing, as least that is the case now. I went with the S22+ due to the size of the Ultra. It seems since the free storage upgrade offer expired they increased the trade in amounts to make up for the difference. But no longer the promo...

    Trade in stolen

    Update to my post above on the stolen trade-in... I reached out to them via chat, provide photos of the device sitting in its OEM box, the sealed shipping box that they ask us to ship it in, the shipping label with weight and IMEI number all before they could ask for it. They immediately...

    We'll, I just received my "Your Box was Empty" notification. "Because we received an empty shipping box from you instead of the Galaxy Note 10 you committed to send, your Credit Card account will be charged $270, " I took photos, dropped it off at a FedEx location myself and have a receipt. I...

    Clear Protective Film Around The Frame, Who Knew!

    Has anyone noticed the removable clear protective film around the sides/frame of the S22+? I didn’t realize it was there until cleaning up after my Whitestone install. You can feel it around the corners most. Much nicer w/it removed.

    How do I change Messages bubble color from green to blue?

    Oddly when this topic started I checked my messages and they were all blue, as they were on previous devices. Today I noticed they are now green. The only change I made was installing my new 5G sim from VZW. I'm not sure if they were still blue before that or that is what triggered the change...

    Is there a way to get around the Verizon activation fee?

    Could anyone with an unlocked device on Verizon confirm if WiFi Calling is enabled and HD Voice? I'm on the fence between a Verizon or unlocked device. I'm okay w/o Visual VM but but WiFi Calling helps a ton.

    Will Samsung soon have 2.5 million refurbished N7s for sale?

    Interestingly, according to Comsumer Reports, it looks like Samsung hasn't filed an official recall yet with the CPCD, that "would have made it illegal to sell the phones". Another reason to check those build dates if you choose to purchase from other than an authorized credible dealer. Source...

    Will Samsung soon have 2.5 million refurbished N7s for sale?

    I pulled the 2.5 million number from an article stating "units sold" not sure of its credibility but I wonder how many were manufactured vs sold. I guess it's not as bad if the device was never unboxed or turned up and updated by the factory, then sold as new. Maybe the recall replacements...

    Will Samsung soon have 2.5 million refurbished N7s for sale?

    Here's a thought, will Samsung soon have 2.5 million refurbished Note 7s for sale or will they have the requred parts replaced and be concidered "factory new" and back into the supply chain? I'm still enjoying my N4 and was on the fence to replace it with the 7.

    Samsung wireless charging back

    Yes, It raises the back slightly higher than the camera, so you can lay it flat on it's back without scratching the camera. I just received the official Samsung back ordered from the Verizon web site on Wednesday. I haven't tried any cases yet. - Some with the S5 have reported ongoing beeps...
