@@angelzendejas2978 mee too and its because of the "yeet"
That tempered glass looks so out of place that it almost feels illegal.
I think it looks stupid. It's far too small for the display
5 years into using Samsung Edge devices, I have to confess that is very hard to find the right glass screen protector - actually I can't remember even hearing about a good glass screen protector for SGS6edge(+), the SGS7edge nor the Note 7 (FE). Those first good ones I found about were made for S8s/N8s and S9s/N9s, and some of them were even applied with liquid glue and worked flawlessly. Regardless, most of the GSC for SGS6e-7e etc, especially the cheapest ones, do require smashing on the screen to type a letter or are falling off your screen after 3.14 minutes of usage. Due to the nature of the curved screens, most of the glass protectors do have glue (or double-sided tape) only on their edges, hence, they are quite unuseful. The screen protector Hugh used in the video has none of those issues, protects the screen from scratches, and when paired with a nice case, like a Spigen one, can guarantee a high level of protection. As I own a few Note 7s, I also tend to have few screen protectors which are just the same as those in the video (although mine were pricier, I believe) and I have no complaints towards using them on daily basis.
@@simmcho can't imagine that the S-Pen can still be used without getting caught on the edge of the protector.
@@simmcho just get an iPhone 12, they're the easiest phones to put a tempered glass screen protector on ;)
@@yannlandry9242 nah, I prefer using my Samsung with no screen protector🧸
Pretty sure it wasn't an overheating issue that caused the fires. It was the fact that because of the lack of room around the battery (as demonstrated in your video) and the internal makeup of the battery (samsung had crammed in the internal structure to get the largest capacity they could at the time) any slight knock or drop caused the anode and cathode layers to touch inside the battery at one of the corner causing a short circuit and subsequently swelling and flame. They wanted that bigger number and didn't put enough thought into the safety implications of the design
this, but thankfully they learned their lesson and can safely put bigger batteries in phones now
The sad part is the note 7 looked beautiful
Apple, on the other hand, has practiced great battery safety
@@GeneralChrisGaming it did but at least Samsung gave people a free Note 8
@@firsttimegod802 Apple would've just blamed the consumer for improper use

I had a s7 till june 2020 but it display broke and it tried fixing it which was not possible in my budget and i bought a s9
@@draig3963 Similar situation for me with my Note9 except I could afford the repair or potentially do it myself but the places near me were charging almost the cost of what a new Note9 would cost and the screens to repair it yourself also cost a significant chunk of what a new Note9 would cost. You could only replace the glass which is much cheaper but special equipment is needed. I decided to give up on having it repaired and felt if I was going to buy a new phone might as well buy a newer model and not a note9 again.
Many people that bought that phone, dont change to S7, only change the battery and done, a perfect Phone to use

AliExpress is pretty legit but Wish is more like scam
I bought a bunch of stuff on Ali, and I had zero issues. One time a phone didn't arrive and I got a full refund.
So it's really legit.
Wish is cancer though....
I feel like with the appearance of the safer fan knock-off batteries, the updates that blocked the Note 7's ability to charge should've at least checked for the original battery before bricking the device. Then if a safer fan knock-off is detected (using methods such as amperage), the battery charge limit would not kick in and the phone would be usable and rechargeable.
the motherboard and software should check the BMS that is built into the battery and if its not original when it was first powered on or manufactured it should acknowledge the different battery and continue functioning like a normal phone
That screen protector is the most useless I have ever seen lmao.

Time to upgrade to Note 20
@@FIGNAS83 Gonna buy it in September or October :) Note 20 ultra mystic bronze
@@danieldraxler5700 I have the note 20 ultra, its so awesome
I hope you get the Note20 Ultra 5G ones cuz apparently depending on your region Samsung is also selling the Note20 Ultra non-5G Exynos 990 with inferior 8GB RAM compare to the 5G ones (N986xx; x - depends on your country/region or carrier). I was almost fooled by Samsung cuz they set a really bad marketing example here in the Philippines... Where they only sell the 5G model on their online site or via carrier/postpaid phone plans and only available in Mystic Bronze colour (which I honestly don't like and would anytime pick the Mystuc Black over it, no offense to you.
🙂✌️). But nonetheless for a lesser amount of money maybe same amount as the regular Note20 you'll get the same spec if you instead get a Note10+ 4G/5G instead of the Note20 Ultra 4G (N985) or 5G (N986). And since Samsung is now supporting up to 3 major OS updates for flagship phones released in 2019 onwards you basically have nothing to lose except for 120Hz screen refresh rate (very awesome kills battery faster), 9ms S-PEN latency, 108mp camera with 8K@24fps video recording & some 200mAh battery capacity which shouldn't be a big deal. Or better yet if you don't care about 120Hz screen refresh rate, crazy 108mo camera, Storage Expandability via MicroSD and 9ms S-PEN latency you're better off with regular Note20. #JustSaying. #Note10PlusUserHere
WOW! Kept my pristine unlocked N7 SIM-less on home WiFi as tablet / cam for years thinking that would prevent the OTA killer, but wrong I was. I gave up a few years ago after unable to find viable downgrade fix for an ATT version. Now its worth the cost of a FE battery. Thanks
IMO, this is the most beautiful smartphone Samsung has ever manufactured, along with the S7 edge.

*NOTE 7:*
The Battery Charging Limit Is 60%.
*Also NOTE 7 at **5:28** :* Battery Is 62%
(Look At The Status Bar)
I believe you're thinking of percentage, which is different from capacity. Think of it like this: capacity is how much it can hold, and percentage is how much battery is left of that capacity
You can imagine it as a gas tank. Capacity is how much gas the tank can hold, and percentage is how much gas is left in the tank. Hope this helps!

You could use ADB to remove the software update app

Leon Vollebregt you could probably use Odin to flash a custom ROM based on stock, you would need TWRP though
@@joshon360hz Then just use Odin to flash TWRP and install a custom ROM that way. It'd be much better than having to deal with Samsung's crappy TouchWiz.
@@real_jake That is, if any device trees has been created for the device. Not only that, kernel source and blobs. If Android 10, you have a crap ton cherry picking, merging, and modifying to do kernel source wise. You also have to keep in mind the proprietary blobs too. Probably needs tons of patching and kanging.
Cheezy I dislike the bloatware In touchwiz but mby a one ui rom
This was the phone I wanted to upgrade to after they got all the new phone bugs get worked out. It's usually six months or so after a phone is released and in the wild before I think about it. Once this whole thing went down, I didn't even think about upgrading again until February 2020, and I got a Note 10+. The phone being replaced was a Note 5, which I still have, and even use every now and then. I'm glad I didn't just jump right in and buy a Note 7 when it was released though, which I was very seriously thinking about doing and completely disregarding my self imposed rule about not buying a new device at or near launch. I got really close though. It was literally the very next day after I had talked myself into it that the first round of fires started and I hit the breaks on the idea. If I had gone through with it, I would have been caught up in the middle of a huge recall, and without a new Note device for the first time in several years. I forget what phone they were setting people up with in the final recall, but I do remember that it was a Galaxy S that didn't really interest me much at all, so I would have got a refund and gone back to my Note 5.
14:20 I bet it was an unsold Note7, then when they heard about the recall, they took it right out of the box and sent that back.
I still have like three pristine note 7 boxes in my house from my purchases. I don't know why I save boxes, but I do.
@@kaussstorm they're probably rare, you should keep them of course
“Rare”
Gosh 2016 seems like it wasn't that long ago, but it's been 6 years now since this whole debacle. I had no idea there was a Fan Edition of this phone, I guess Samsung wanted to keep it quiet.
Just in case you didn't know (though I'm sure you do having worked on quite a few Samsungs already, but hey), with the S7/Note7 and up, you CAN actually flash different carrier's firmware onto these, so long as (I believe) it's the same binary. Actually used to do it with my S7, got it unlocked from T-Mobile US, flashed it to G930U so all the carrier junk was gone. Also has the advantage of controlling the bands as the phone supports a variety of frequency bands BUT locks to those supported by the currently installed firmware. The only hard limitation is that the bootloader has to support the firmware you're flashing (which you already know to check for in this case with the binary versions), AND the firmware has to be for the SoC your phone has. Exynos firmware won't work on a Snapdragon and vice versa, so you'd be stuck to US firmware variants.
Sounds like this is more of a showpiece though so this is probably completely irrelevant but if you ever wanted to be free of the AT&T junk (and you can find the N930U firmware without the battery limits), it can be done. Also, it won't trip Knox, either. But it also sounds like if you take the wrong firmware with this you're hosed so I'm not sure I'd personally risk it, either.
I have an old S7 edge that my daughter somehow damaged the motherboard inside. I've been thinking about getting it running again depending on cost and trying to figure out if I should root or do something else with it. It wasn't used for 9 months (less than 1 year for sure). I'm debating if I use it as my experimenting device or actually try and breathe life into it and sell it. It it's branded ATT. I could probably unlock it from ATT once booted since it was originally mine from them. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I love your videos, you're always so thorough and meticulous. Keep up the great work! ❤
Thanks for your words

I think there is a setting in "developer options" to disable automatic software updates, that would be much better than that 3rd party app.
Ah, the Note7 - the reason I had to get an iPhone 6plus. I had a note4, traded it in, got the note7, and bam!, exploding phones. It was the best phone I’d ever had. Loved the design and functionality. The only phone that came close to the note7 at the time was the iPhone 6Plus so I went with it.

The S4 had a similar case to the note 7.
When you flipped the case on to the screen it highlighted a segmemt that showed the time and notifications
Jaeyk G*59 every Samsung phone has a case like that available for it
You could try installing a Note FE rom onto it as it runs on a newer Android version.
I agree. It's much better than using OG firmware since you can get updates and Samsung) Google pay works

I think the note 7, had it not been a high grade explosive, would have been the pinnacle of the smartphone. I absolutely adored mine in the few months that I had it.
I have one of these, but mine is rooted to get rid of the charge limit and forced updates, still on the original 3500mah battery too, its not quite fast enough and the battery is too small to be my daily driver, but I do sometimes use it if I feel like trolling people in public

This machine has a similar story as the HP Pavilion zd8000. It had a battery that would overheat, causing the main computer to overheat itself and catch fire. The heat was enough to damage the motherboard and causing units to die. By the time battery recalls were initiated, HP already eased in its replacement, the Pavilion dv8000. I recommend you get ahold of it, immediately remove the battery, and run it on wall power.
