They're probably just gonna hold off until they can start selling them with 4.1. Its only gonna be a week anyway.

Figured they might. Personally I'd like to just order it now, know i have it, then flash JB myself... Seems they announced they were going to start selling again when they had 4.1 ready to go... but that decision was made prior to this revelation. Business sense to me says just start selling again.

They're selling so few of these things it really doesn't matter honestly. Sad, but true.
They said they'll resume selling next week, with 4.1 preloaded. We'll survive.

That is not right. The verge must not have any lawyers on staff. The 9th Circuit issued two orders; 1) there will be no temporary stay on the tab 10.1, 2) before they act on the GNex (as in suspend the temporary injunction or not) they want a reply from Apple by July 12.

Actually they do have at least one writer that is a lawyer. And what is wrong with their article? They stated that Apple has to respond before the judge will decide on keeping the ban before trial.

Google isn't bound by the order, AFAIK. They are probably changing the firmware and didn't want people waiting / getting upset that the phone they ordered isn't shipping for another 3 weeks, so they took down the order form.

I actually didn't read the verge article until just now.
But there are 2 stays at issue here. There's an immediate stay which lasts from today until whenever the court has an opportunity to read Apple's reply (2 weeks probably). Then there's a temporary stay pending appeal which would last from the end of any immediate stay until appeal (several months, maybe years).
The immediate stays were decided but the temporary stays were not.
The orders pertaining to the GN are broken into two parts as visible on the courts website. The part you snipped from the PDF was for the galaxy tab case which has a different court file number. If you'd actually read the one PDF included in the verge article and the other from the courts website you will see the article is correct. That the preliminary injunction pertaining to the galaxy nexus is temporarily stayed until apple responds by July 12th and until the court reviews the response and makes a decision.

they are bound by the play store though. We could throw out 10 different scenarios, but its all speculation and assumptions. I'm just looking forward to a new device, so naturally impatient
IMHO, this is what Sammy/Google need to do...
Sell as many as possible at or just above cost to blow out as many units as possible before the ban takes effect again. I'm sure there would be quite a few sold along the way to the ban again... at least they could sell thru what ever inventory they might have. Just to get it into as many hands as possible. They could even ship them with IDs from the IO conference so Jelly Belly would be OTA automatically.
I dunno... don't want to sound like a fan boy but Apple would probably claim predatory pricing or something.
I placed my order in the play store on July 3rd...and just recently found out about this ban lol! Damn you apple for delaying my order!!
looks like its back for sale... but seems they adjusted the estimated shipping to "Ships when Available" when its in your cart..
O well, purchased and hopefully in the queue. Hopefully it will ship sooner than their estimate of 2-3 weeks.

Eh, there never was an official announcement that showed anything before March but at this point I'm not defending Microsoft til they give reason. It's an amazing OS but if they're just going to string people along then it's definitely losing ground in my book.

That's how I feel. But rationally thinking, why would a company handle business this way? It makes me think they are trying to iron out something completely unexpected; trying to capitalize on a sudden resource. I think once they finally do get past the first big update, things will go smoother and faster from then on. There's no rationality to a consumer oriented company (a company making efforts to be consumer oriented) putting off its customer base. There has to be a good reason for how things are going.
Maybe MS has its hands full of the carriers. Maybe the carriers are so badly locking down MS that they can't organize well enough. Too bad MS doesn't go with a single hardware market system and run with that. They would have complete control over the whole system, much like Apple does with the iPhone. Not saying it will happen, but speculatively speaking, MS just might be headed in that direction. If the carriers are, in fact, causing all the problems, MS might just get to a point where they will have had enough and discontinue multiple hardware support and focus on one specific handset...of their choosing. Then the carriers will get taught a valuable lesson.
90 days after CES, the date is right on time.

Yeah, please do show some proof because I'm quite certain if that was the case it would've come up on some tech blog. All of which ive been following daily since months before the initial release of WP7. Microsoft made no official announcement aside from "Early 2011." From there they went on to say "The first 2 weeks of March." Finally we come to where we're at today.
It was supposed to have been released on the 7th, but was pulled - yet again. The latest date I have is the 22nd.
What irks me is that this update is still the same old build that's been ready for deployment since January.

Where are you getting this information?
z33 is correct. Microsoft's only official announcment about the first update was Q1 2011. Which doesn't end until March 31st.
There were several rumors from various tech blogs about January and then February but nowhere has an official MS announcement been made on an exact day and/or time.
I've also been following about 10 or so tech blogs since about December.
it was always Q1 for the nodo and Q3 for the mango.... MS never give out dates... no one will give out dates for the updates come on...

And then when it comes out and has problems everyone will be crying about why they didn't beta test it more. Just relax people I want the update too but not enough to whine about it on the net. Just sayin'..
Went to Verizon today and talked to a rep about the Nexus. He said he had gotten an email today stating that Thursday was the launch date. I asked if he had any in stock. He showed me a stack of 10 behind the counter, opened one and let me play with it - only while powered off. He wrote my name and number on a sticky , put it one one of the boxes, and said he would call me if anything changed but, barring that, he would see me Thursday at 10:00. Sweet!
I remember when a rep told me the release date was on the 9th. I've given up on when this phone will finally be released. Just hope it's soon already.
Yeah I stopped in one myself too. She had just had it out showing another guy so I messed around with it while we shot the ****. They still have the date set at the 15th, but I'm having a hard time believing it's going to come. We're 18 hours away from release and they still haven't told stores to put out demos, or even started advertising. The signs just aren't indicating the phone is imminent. I really hope it comes, but the pessimist in me is saying no way.
I still say we do a class action against Verizon for mental anguish

I take it you weren't there for the Droid RAZR launch. they made the biggest deal out of that thing and pulled the whole 11/11/11 11AM bit. they had these red lines/dividers in front of the stores in anticipation of all these people showing up for it...
at my local Verizon no one was in line for it 5min before they opened and apparently didn't even sell any that day(most other stores were similiar to).

You'd think so. I signed up for Razr alerts as well. Got an alert the day it went on sale, not the day preorders started, not before, after the phone was already for sale they finally sent an email.
Lol. I texted him back and he said they just got word that its own Thursday.

I keep getting mixed feelings about this. I get all hopeful that it will launch and then it doesn't. This is some pretty concrete evidence but we saw "definite" dates in Verizon's systems before. Just taking this with a grain of salt and hoping that we get an official OK from Verizon tomorrow.
I think someone loosened the cap on the salt shaker....and now there are grains of salt EVERYWHERE
As long as it comes out before the end of the year, why does it matter? They never stated anything more then that....

i have confirmation that there is a 100% probability that it may be available on the 15th(possibly).
Not that we didn't already know this, but I figured it'd be something to post. Was chatting to a Sprint person (or robot, not sure) about the picture compressing issue (which he said he reset and would be fixed in about 15 minutes) and at the tail end, I asked when they would be releasing ICS for the Epic 4G Touch and he said "it will be releasing in the mid [middle] of the year", meaning this month or next month (probably this month).
Just thought I'd share, although it may or may not mean much.
(Mind you, I'm already aware of the official leaks from Samsung, but I was just curious.)

Exactly, under promise and over deliver, typical sales practice.
Yeah, given the maturity of FD26, there's no way it'll be another 3 months.
Most likely the system says mid-year, so the rep was assuming the end of summer to be safe.

I could deal with that too.
I'd rather have them do that than over promise which is what they usually did in the past.
I'm thinking official release may be June or July. The way these software releases usually go, sprint may have the final product by next week, but they will want to push their newest ics phones first, trying to get people to resign contracts and fork out some cash. Then the update is "conveniently" released after a month or 2 of new phone sales. Hopefully I'm wrong though.

If it does take until August then sprint needs some better techs. There would be no reason for a delay that long. The leaks we have now are 99% good to go, I could not image what would take them so long.

Remember, it IS a business. They have your money already and they definitely want to dangle the shiny new temptation in front of you for a while first. If you don't bite, fine.. Here's your update to ICS. Eventually. Cause we love you.

Probably 2-3 weeks. Maybe more.
Can you please provide us how did you know if 2-3 weeks or 6-8 weeks? I think you're both mistaken.. Please don't answer randomly. Be specific and provide a proof.
I'm so frustrated for not having pre-ordered it, and now i'm unable to know when it will be back in stores... i should have bought it on Samsung store or Amazon when it was still there... arghhhhh

Samsung told me it would be a minimum of 3 weeks to get a replacement for my faulty Note 7. They will replace all the faulty Note 7s then restock the stores. That will be I would say around 6-8 weeks.

But now It's unclear, samsung officials have no Idea when the device is coming.
Im so disappointed, I am waiting since april for the device, and I would gladly pay for an expolding device and take that minimal risk it has a defect.
An exploding note7 is much better than my current LG G2 mini..
To be honest I think they should exchange our phones first. We are dealing with potential life/fire/explosion hazard so...
No one knows the answer to the OP's question not even, in fact especially, Samsung. WE are all going to just have to wait this one out. It will make ownership when it comes even more of a delight.
I hope they take the time to sort the CG glass problem out.

This is indeed a problem. Have you noticed though that all reviewers and many customers moan about paying 880€ for the Note 7 but no one is moaning about the cost of the iPhone 7 that is some areas is superior to the Note 7 and in other areas inferior. The iPhone 7 here would cost me 250€ MORE!
Both good mobiles and though very different will please most of their customer clientele.
I have my Note 7 on order due to exchange programme and am fortunate enough to be able to wait. I am still using my SG S6 Edge +. After using an S-AMOLED QHD screen no way could I return to IPS FHD technology, just my choice. I respect others. :good:

eh eh, what you ask me is about Cupertino marketing perception. I would go really off topic to reply on that, and would not be enough exhaustive.
Just hope Samsung will manage well this moment of crisis, otherwise from my side not big deal. Theirs Android concurrent will gain more market space, and for me this is nice as well. After all even a fragmented Android market is far more strong than Apple without Jobs.
More competition, more benefits for us, and next time samsung: do not be so greed... make telephone that can be open... all your problems would be now vanished:angel:, if you really want to give us water resistant features do a decent cover that REALLY goes under water

wait, still looks not official...
I was informed that my preorder (in Stockholm/Sweden) will be delivered end of October
So with the battery issue has there been any reports of bundled promotions to win back customers? Ex. The S7 Edge had a Best Buy bundle of a VR, wireless charger and memory card at one point.

My Samsung Galaxy Note7 was manufactured in Vietnam on August 26th? I got the Note7 from Three UK, does that mean I am unaffected?
Seems dubious to me could be wrong but why single out one supplier (ebay seller?) bad wording errors if that was the case then why is it not posted on Samsung's sites.

Well, could be any number of reasons, maybe it just got released internally?, no idea. It does makes more sense to me that those devices affected can be identified by some sort of triage, rather than recalling all devices (which semed odd since the start). I followed the QR code and it des link to samsung website. I am not saying that this is 100% true, but it does make sense. Posted this to stop the massive Note 7 abuse before someone may regret it
I agree, this is a badly written letter and looks completely fake.
.
I am not convinced quite yet.
It's badly written because it's written by Asians? Perhaps?
I am Asian by the way. And this is fine. I've seen far worse letters than this.

I don't disagree.
However, I'd wait for tomorrow. It's the weekends here, so I'll look out for Monday for any kind of announcement.
I would really hope that this company wouldn't fake an internal letter like this. I wouldn't be surprised if Samsung took a faked letter like this extremely seriously considering the circumstances. So I'm on the fence in this one but really hope someone wouldn't take that chance. It has a customer number on it. Someone could easily call Samsung and get this verified.

Fake. There is no chance they would publicly announce a world wide recall, then a day later say 'Oops, we mean world wide recall. Except for this batch of phones. Our bad.' If they where wrong about that batch of phones they would get crucified. Nope, that seller just doesn't want to deal with the headache of returning all the units they sold, and returning all that money.
So if you bought from this seller you stuck with the phone you have or file a case with eBay and get your money back since you're within 30day eBay return policy and buy another device when they are fixed. That's your only two choices.

My UK Note7 pre-order was canceled on the 1st Sept, so I'm waiting to see if Samsung can narrow down affected batches and release the unaffected devices...
If you want to check the date your Note 7 or any Samsung device was manufactured type this into the phone dialer *#12580*369# the "RF Cal" field is the date of device manufacture, if that information even helps in anyway Im not sure yet.
A worldwide recall is just that. Every phone that was sold. This letter is total BS.
This is one of many reasons why eBay just even an option to buy stuff for me. If it isnt Amazonable then it's not worth it, I get you want a deal and access to unlocked devices and whatnot but eBay has and will always be that "scummy dark alley" place for sellers, and by the looks of this letter (which looks so sketchy) this is another prime example of that. I wouldn't trust this at all, looks like he's just wants to keep his money and not deal with returns.

Yes. If it were real, Samsung should fire their PR. You don't go anouncing a worldwide recall and then say whoops, we didn't mean it. And wait a whole weekend to correct it. This is a huge blow for them and it is exceptionally hard on us customers worrying we might have ticking time bombs in our possesion. If they back out of their statement after a weekend of not caring, they will ruin their reputation further. They will appear non credible. Excuse me but exploding phones warrant Samsung managment and PR works all weekend!
I agree. This letter is fake. It's a (mostly) well done fake, but a fake. IMO, it's Tropical trying to keep from having to take back all the phones they've sold.
In the US and the EU they would have little choice, in Singapore I'm not sure if they can weasel out of it or not.
I've already received my email from Amazon saying that they will send a full refund for the phone and any accessories I have purchased there. It was not this seller (Tropical) but of course as an FD model it is grey market and was sold without warranty. The email also said that if I sold the phone I should notify the person I sold it to so that they can return it for a refund. Lastly it stated that the return hadn't been hashed out yet and not to send it until they were ready.
I'm going to extrapolate a little here with a few guesses. The fact that Amazon also specifically mentioned a further buyer and my phone is already grey market implies that Samsung is going after all the phones regardless of where/how they were purchased. That they don't want me to send it yet gives me the impression they don't know exactly what they are going to do with it or how the process will go which would mean Samsung hasn't yet hashed it out internally how they will handle the grey market phones and given that information to those that sold them.
Those are guesses Gents, I have no special knowledge, I'm just reading the tea leaves.
I bought my phone from LuLu Mall here from Riyadh ( SA ).
Model is : SM N930FD
Made in Vietnam.
How we can confirm that my phone will also come under the recall process ? I have been using the device for like past 3 days and i don't feel any Lag, battery drain or Over heating while charging or using the phone.
