Note 7: I got my replacement! Thread

[Torm558]

Jealous... Decided to return mine and re purchase when it's released again so I could get it through Costco this time instead of my carrier for the perks... But now I have to wait longer!

Stopped by my local AT&T Orange County store to see what they'd say. Was on my way past there so figured why not. I said I heard they would have replacement units in this week. Guy said to check back on Wed; they hadn't received anything yet. I asked if there was some kind of list or way to be notified cause every time I call, no one answers. He gave me his card and said I could text him Wed. Guess I'll just wait till Wed to try again.

AT&T in MA got theirs this morning - picked mine up at around 12:30 PM - just finishing SmartSwitch Restore now. Will report back later this afternoon. Have pictures, etc. Interesting note - Made in Korea, not China on my box but has the black square everyone speaks of. More to come! ??? :-|

Thank you, jpprice14 for all this great new information.
I believe that you have the newest Note 7 with all the new battery options.

I'm wondering if I should hold out another week or two before swapping mine as I would rather have one of the latest improved models like yours.

Now we know that there are different replacement models, early ones without the latest improvements and the "Real Deal" with new icons. :-\

ugh. i want the newest for sure!

AT&T in Flowood, Miss received theirs this morning and changed mine out...the process was pretty straight forward, I was the 1st person to get the replacement...

I detest AT&T's crummy, cheap boxes. Why do they do that? It's actually negative for their brand, in my opinion.

Anyone get a replacement prior to 9/17 1:30p CST?
Asking for bragging rights...

Not trying to rub it in; those of you still waiting, your day will come.

I'm assuming T-Mo is last on the list for replacements. They dont' have the foggiest idea when their stock will arrive.

New Verizon update today will give you the new green battery icons.

I'm going to update it now and see what it does to my explosive Note 7.

Only a green battery if it's safe.

Only a green battery if it's safe.

It seems to be like this, for the time being:
All Notes with a green battery icon are safe, but not all safe Notes have a green battery icon.
Once all updates are rolled out, all safe Notes should have the green battery icon.

Im in Fairfax Va, and received my from the Sprint Store at FairOaks Mall. My unit was made in China.

Notice the "P2" in the MEID, and the black square on the bottom right corner.

Did they send a new unlock code? What was the build date?

No they didn't sent a new unlock code, I will be calling either today or tomorrow to get a new one sent. How do you find the build date?

We shouldn't have to download a app to be assured we are getting safe phones.

Verizon is too busy taking things out of the software.
And adding more bloatware.
