That is not what I said. I said the entire car is recalled, not replaced. Wth?
Why couldn't they have gotten batteries from ATL who made the good batteries?

Samsung SDI will no longer supply batteries for the Galaxy Note 7, after issues with battery fires and explosions required a mass recall of handsets.
Exactly. Why are people not getting this? There aren't just batteries sitting around in a where house, ready for every occasion lol
The whole point is that if only the battery was defective, and not sealed, Samsung would have the option of manufacturing good batteries and only replacing the battery, not the whole phone.Samsung could recall the phone, customers take them to their local carrier...ATT/Sprint/Best Buy...whatever. The carrier would swap the batteries and you're done. Simple as that! That would be more convenient for the customer and cheaper for Samsung.
Of course there aren't 2.5 million batteries sitting in a where [sic] house! They have to make them! Instead of making the whole phone, they would only have to make the batteries.
Yes, you're right. You'd still have to wait. And turn in a defective battery and have a phone without a battery, so no working phone. Instead you can have a replacement, loaner or trade of a working phone.
As seen in the Verizon thread, the phone that exploded was a Galaxy Core. See video below.

This makes things far worse!! Now, it's not just a Note 7 catching fire, it's a different Galaxy device. This can easily cast doubt on all Samsung phones. Truly a worst case scenario. And what I reiterated before in another thread, that Samsung needs to get it's quality control in order. As I said before, Samsung washing machines have also been recalled and there have been reports of them catching fire also.

Apparently the boy had been playing for hours. I wouldn't even trust that with an iPhone. Let's see which websites print updates, and which ones go on letting their readers believe it was a Note 7
If the government wants to widen the investigation then they better include every model of every phone from every manufacturer.It doesn't matter at this point and if they did make the correction, then it just makes it worse then you give the impression all Samsungs are blowing up. It could get govt widening investigation to more models maybe??
