Samsung GS7edge - Verizon Users Thread

I get more Hangouts than texts... so. NBD for my usage. But if you get a lot of text I could see how this would be an issue.

ANT is a type of radio that is often used with fitness devices (running watches, heart rate monitors, treadmills, etc). I use the ANT radio to connect to my Garmin running watch.

That's what I'm thinking, if i hide the notification it still lights up just doesn't show the notification, i hate when things just start doing things like this haha.

I have that unchecked

I run Google Now launcher and it doesn't do this upon notification / txt messages. I believe it is a TouchWiz thing.

I know it sucks I couldn't do this with a pre order and get credited back. I guess I'll take one evil for another. I'll have two s2s in my opinion that'd be about the same price as my husbands s7 I would have gotten free. So it cancels each other out

you only have to keep the line active for 6 months... so you are getting an edge for taxes, and 6 months line access.... so in my case i'll get a spare edge for $160.00 hard to pass that up........

 

[bsteppuhn]

John? Have you had issues with it? Which watch are you using? I used to connect my vivoactive with my droid through Bluetooth. but with marshmellow its requiring me to connect through locations and Bluetooth. so can I connect it with ant? will it connect with garmin connect?

You don't have to pay a early termination fee? Or pay off the phone?

Looks like people are getting shipment emails for their promo watches

Why would there be an ETF, there is no contract?

You would pay off the phone with the prepaid Visa they send you.

Zero downside for getting a spare phone for less than the deductible for an Asurian claim.

Side slide - not John, but I've connected to my Garmin Forerunner without any problems - getting notifications, etc. and have Garmin Connect - much smoother and consistent connection.

[weirdohappy]

Ah. Yeah my mistake. It is the VR. I was getting nervous thinking people who submitted after me were getting emails!!

[Rygots]

Both of mine say:
Submission Approved. Preparing for Shipment. Shipping Date estimate: Pending

I have no idea what i was approved for though. I submitted both as the watch but confirmation emails said vr. When i called they said one was vr and one was a watch. It's a mystery.

 

[shane starr]

But now I'm nervous about the watch. Ugh!

 

[D-Recka23]

Mine says approved shipment date 4-18-16 oh and it is the gear s2

Can someone try this on their S7 Edge? >>> https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...olice.packagedisablerpro&hl=en&token=xMzLcgZn Cause I put it on my S6 Edge and blocked all the bloatwares it can find. No root required. It should work on the S7/Edge too.

Question - Can you pay a Verizon bill online with a Visa GC?

That's the hangup I have. No matter how you divide it up, for 2 S7 Edges you still eventually have to pay Verizon just shy of $1,600 plus taxes, fees and service for at least 6 months on the one line you can cancel. For that they will, at some point a month or two from now send you a GC worth the price of one. To me a GC is not the same as a statement credit or cash! If you can take the card, pay off the line and just leave it active for 6 months it is a solid deal.
