Re: Folks still using the N7, probably best to turn off rapid charging. You should look on YouTube for videos of Lipo battery fires. It's not hard to believe that the phone catching fire in the center console would burn a vehicle down.

Time to take off the tinfoil hat. Yes, this is getting press because it's exciting for the news outlets. No, Apple isn't maniacally forcing it into the news. Samsung is the one who noticed the problem and recalled the device, which got the attention of the government. This is caused by Samsung.

It won't be. The FAA is all about risk management and it reduces risk to just say that the Note 7 isn't allowed.

Now it's banned on Delta and Virgin America. Starting tomorrow all Delta flights will have an announcement that you are not allowed to have a Note powered on or charging.

Virgin America just sent out an email to employees that they are banning them as well. You can bring it, bit it has to be off and no charging. Don't think it's been officially announced yet.

Worked yesterday for me at Walmart.

I haven't watched a ton of video, but it makes sense. The brightness really cranks up when it is on.

Settings, general management, language and input, default keyboard, setup input methods. In there you can disable the Samsung voice input method and it'll default to Google. Also jump back to the language and input menu and scroll down to Text-to-Speech and select Google in there.

Re: Sam's Club Pre-Order I ordered mine early on the 3rd and my email says that it is reserved and available on the 19th and will be put back in stock the morning of the 20th if I don't get it. Sounds like your order is waiting for ones like mine to not be picked up.
