    are you leaving the Note 7? if so, where are you going?

    Very sad day. Turned in my beautiful N7, back to my trusty N4. I'll keep my eye in what unfolds in this saga but just play it safe for now. The guy at Verizon seemed to think there was going to be some major incentives coming out to lure people back. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk

    Power Down and Don't Charge Note 7 per The Consumer Product Safety Commission

    Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note7 Ordering & Shipping Information

    Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note7 Ordering & Shipping Information

    Re: Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note7 Ordering & Shipping Information Might want to put in a new thread but worked like a charm for me coming from a note 4 as well. Some would argue you're better off starting fresh, fwiw.

    Smart Switch or Not?

    Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note7 Ordering & Shipping Information

    Only a slight exaggeration, lol. Probably about 30/40 mins including transfer and install. The longer part was install and the app didn't make it clear it was still working. Only knew because apps kept popping up slowly.

    About 60%, took nothing to charge to 100. Smart switch took forever, hadn't used that before, good now it's done.

    Re: Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note7 Ordering & Shipping Information Got it and activated, had to call in though, errored at first. Be careful when pulling out memory slot, my sim card came flying out, little tricky getting back in just right. Beautiful phone, so far single press finger...
