So just back it up and factory reset every now and then.

I will really miss wireless charging but if the camera is good and I can unlock the bootloader I think I can deal with it. This phone is no Note7 but then again, none are. I hope Samsung can fix whatever the issue was and release a Note8. Until then, I will use the Pixel XL as long as I can...

Obviously MarketSource isn't a very well run company. But in all fairness, the recall has not been well organized to date. There should have been definitive procedures in place by now. They don't have the phones in yet so they can't begin the exchanges, but Samsung should have communicated...

Well that sucks. We should know more tomorrow but it looks like if you are past the 14 day return window it is hit or miss whether or not you can return for refund to Target. If you are an AT&T customer, AT&T seems willing to do a return for refund even if you bought through Target. Verizon...

Same type of battery, different supplier.

Yeah, it's no big deal at all. I am waiting on another promo. I bought mine from Target and they gave you a $200 gift card for a trade-in that you could use on the downpayment. I could have netted about $100 for my trade in phone so that came to $100 if you consider that. Then you got...

Agreed. OF COURSE these phones will be refurbished. That is what is done in the industry.

Nah, they are going to refurb them with new batteries. They will be used as insurance/warranty replacements.

My TM rep told me just to keep mine and didn't mention it to the CSR so I kept it :) I have $300 in Target gift cards to apply to the downpayment when I rebuy the Note7 if they run another promo, and I think that they will. Hopefully Target will have a good promo but if not like I said, I can...

A TMobile rep posted a picture of a demo unit that was in his regional market that incinerated at a TMobile store. He posted it in this forum - the picture was shared with TMobile reps as a warning in their employee chat.

That's the one from Missouri.

There would be no note of the $100 GC even if you got it during the promo. It is issued a separate receipt. The CSRs don't know about it unless the Target Mobile rep tells them. One poster a few posts back, the TM rep took the $100 GC, which means that Target will never see that $100 GC...

That's very different from what I experienced. My Target Mobile guy inspected the device/accessories I was returning and then called his ROC to process the return through Verizon so that the DPP was canceled and upgrade restored. Then he took the device and my Target receipt to CS and all the...

ITA that the average person thinks they are dealing with Target not MarketSource just like the average person thinks they are dealing with Costco not Wireless Advocates. But at the end of the day, the system in place was not set up to handle returns outside of the 14 day return period due to...

I am 100% certain that Verizon would not accept my Target gift cards as payment, lol! Yes, the DP eventually makes it to the carriers, but if you are w/in 14 days it has not yet been sent to them. So it works like I said it works when you return for refund - your taxes/DP gets refunded to you...
