    why is knox on my phone

    Here is a little bit more information. Yes it is built in security and it comes pre-installed on Samsung phones now. I think it probably came pre-installed on the S4, but if it didn't, it would have been added in an update. This also will tell Samsung if you have rooted a phone. You might hear...

    T-Mobile upgrading some 10gb plans to Unlimited

    They don't seem to be doing it with all plans, they have denied some that wanted to participate.

    T-Mobile upgrading some 10gb plans to Unlimited

    With the recent promo plan that I am on, the10 gb plan allows you to accrue 20 gb of data stash and then you buy more data if you need more than 10 gb monthly. I pay 10 dollars with 10 extra gb monthly and still have 20 gb data stash. If you want to have 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 etc gb every...

    Blues until Samsung makes any official announcement, it hasn't changed.

    Potential Ban of Note 7 on Planes by FAA? Yep.

    Well that isn't necessarily true. There are things that can be done to make sure the old ones don't work. Also last I heard, after the recall Samsung is going to be supplying a list of the recalled phones by IMEI and they can be checked by that. No phone is guaranteed not to catch on fire...

    Potential Ban of Note 7 on Planes by FAA? Yep.

    Every Note 7 except the ones related in China in the day of the recall it the day before, are affected.

    Potential Ban of Note 7 on Planes by FAA? Yep.

    If you plan to get the new Note 7, the least difficult way is to hold on to the phone until yours comes in and do the exchange instead of doing the refund and repurchase.

    Potential Ban of Note 7 on Planes by FAA? Yep.

    So.. advanced warning, this is going to be long. A replacement phone is acceptable. Why would it not be? Samsung has identified the problem and is correcting it. There is no way that Samsung didn't identify the problem, initiate and recall and a plan to replace them all, without identitying...

    Potential Ban of Note 7 on Planes by FAA? Yep.

    If they are doing an official recall, there is nothing to suggest the corrected ones will be banned nor that the ban will be permanent. Once they are satisfied the issue has been resolved and they can identify corrected vs those under recall, there won't be any reason to have a ban on the new...

    Potential Ban of Note 7 on Planes by FAA? Yep.

    That is very unusual. I don't know of anyone that hasn't had their phones checked. Also between about April through June, I was flying 5-7 days each week and sometimes going to two and three different states in one day.. I probably went to at least 50 different airports and at least 25 different...

    T-Mobile Note 7 Recall Thread

    Well for people that actually want a Note for the features of a Note, there just isn't any way an iPhone is a substitute for a Note. Now some people like Android and iPhone both, but if a person uses the Note for its features, which includes using the spen as more than just a stylus, the...

    T-Mobile Note 7 Recall Thread

    There was something in TMO's statement they made early on, that made me think maybe they were talking about accessories bought elsewhere also. If you bought them online you would have a receipt in the account of the company, like Amazon or case manufacturers etc. They didn't come out and say...

    T-Mobile Note 7 Recall Thread

    Blues, think of it this way.. We have two options to listen to about shipping and manufacturing times and progress: Samsung GLOBAL and NOT Samsung Global. First Option: Samsung Global knows how long it takes to put together 2 million Note 7's and what all is involved to accomplish that and...

    T-Mobile Note 7 Recall Thread

    And from what I understand, it seems Australia is getting their phones today or they were shipping today. It was released like 8/2 on Australia. They were one of the first to get the phone.

    T-Mobile Note 7 Recall Thread

    Until Samsung makes an announcement changing dates, I'm still going with what Samsung said. The only people that know about the times is Samsung. Right now, until they say different, the time frame is "within the next two weeks" from last Friday.
