Received text from AT&T today informing me that the Forced Update to Not Allow The Note 7 to recharge anymore set to be Pushed Out on 1/5/17. Saw that it is rolling out on 1/19/16 but after 30 min on the phone with AT&T and talking with the Samsung Rep there the date of 1/5/17 is correct for AT&T Customers. From what I have found Surprisingly Verizon is not taking part in the update for legal reasons of disabling a person's only phone and the possibility of them needing Emergency Services but not able to do so because of Update.
I Love My Note 7 and Hate My Hand is Being Forced to Surrender It. If anyone else has been Note Users for years like myself and went to something out I need suggestions! I used the Galaxy S7 Edge while waiting for my Replacement Note 7 and Was shocked how much I disliked it. Not sure if I'll go back to Samsung when I Surrender This Phone at least until a New Note is Released. Hope This Info Helps as I made account to share this as I've found so much helpful info here over the years. Any questions or anything please just ask.

Had Notification that I am to new of a user to post links which I assume also means attaching images. Well I tried to post direct links to Screenshots of the text from AT&T that I got today about the Upcoming Forced Update to Cripple Note 7s. If another user wouldn't mind posting them in here for me I can supply them with the links. Thanks
Has anyone else noticed how updates for both the Pixel & Pixel XL are not bring released until the end of the month?
November's factory & OTA images weren't available until the end of the month when all other devices we're at the beginning. Now December's aren't available too when all other devices are.
It's pretty much expected, if they have worked on November's update till the end of month.

Because we are old now.
I don't see any problems with it. It will be delivered. Yes, it was some problems with November patch so it was delivered late, so it may be the reason December will be a bit late this time. What is promising - Nexus 6 still receiving an update although the support ended last month. So maybe Google is committed to push more security patches than promised.
I'm more hoping for optimization and improvements, but I won't hold my breath. If that takes until the end of the month, then I will gladly wait -
Edit: Out now for my Pixel
December update is live and running. So only one day delay.
I actually got my December date a day early
Just curious if anyone has found a way to bring this to older Pixel phones yet. This is the one feature i'm really looking forward to.
It seems by virtue of the fact there are no replies, that this is either an ignored post, or there are no answers as of yet.
Reported from Slash Gear:
"It’s still unknown whether older Pixel phones will get the same treatment. The Pixel 2 is still within the supported period so, unless Google considers it to be blocked by older hardware, the compact Google Assistant should still be able to make its way to it"

I already have it in my Pixel 2 XL. I am a level 7 local guide though with early access to upcoming features. So yes, this will definitely hit the Pixel 2 (XL) as well!
@addemer - that's awesome news! How are you finding it?

How do you know you have it? I thought i read that GAssistant wont have the cool new UI like on the Pixel 4.
Im also a level 7 local guide and GAssistant beta tester. But i dont think i have it.
I do not have the Pixel 4 UI but the new compact view that the article above mentions.
That wasn't what I was referring to. I was looking for the new faster assistant with continued conversation. I heard others have gotten it to work on a rooted phone by changing the build.prop to a pixel 4.
Hey folks,
This thread is to discuss the process of getting the Bose noise cancelling 700s headphones from the pre-order offer. As far as I am aware, this offer was available in the UK and some of the EU countries, but it may have been available farther afield.
Today at the time of writing is 14 days after I placed the pre-order for my 6P and a standard 6. I entered all my details for both devices through the pixel offer website and am now awaiting confirmation. I'll keep you updated with my progress and am interested to learn yours.

Pre-Ordered the Phone on the 19th (directly from Google Store), completed the details on the pixel offer website today, got confirmation almost immediately (2min max) that the application is approved.

Not sure what you mean. No one told me to wait another 14 days.
I've now received confirmation about the 6, but not the 6p

Hey,
I also sent my application yesterday (pre-ordered on the 19th). So far, I only got the confirmation e-mail saying they received my request.
They're supposed to get in touch within 4 working days to approve it. Let's wait and see!
i filled it out using my US address...let's see if it slips through
My validation was approved immediately in morning after submission. In addition, I sent other proof such as delivery note which came with phone and photo of IMEI on phone box in afternoon.
They replied that my submission was validated in evening agin.
Just doing extra as learnt from last year mess up on Bose promo.
What did you use as a proof of purchase? I do not think I have any papers left since I got rid of everything. I would happily go and dive in my bin, but it was taken this morning
I just done it and got text to say its been approved and 40 days I should have the headphones.
21:30 claim sent
22:45 text that the claim has been approved
shipment within the next 60 days
I know that these headphones come in 2 different colours. I wish google would let us chose which one we want.
EE UK Pixel 6 Pro order here.
Submitted my claim this morning and within minutes received a text advising claim was approved

My experience was the same. Confirmation was very fast.
Was also told that I can expect the headphones to arrive within 60 days.
Thanks folks. I've had confirmation for one but not the other. Just for laughs, Google's own pixel offers were put into my Gmail spam. I'm now waiting for a confirmation on the second hand set. We'll see how quickly it comes.
I submitted my application on Monday, haven't heard from them even though they say in their e-mail "they will get back to me within 4 working days". Meh :/
I've now received confirmation for 2/2 devices.
The second confirmation was for the first device claim.
My best advice for anyone waiting for confirmation is to check email spam (particularly for Gmail)

So, my OnePlus 9 Pro suddenly gets a green line on screen after an OTA. My phone has never been dropped and doesn't have a single scratch on it. I am 5 months out of warranty. I messaged OnePlus support on WhatsApp, and the guy over there told me I don't have to worry and I'll get free screen replacement. He told me to just take it to the service center. I do that and the service center people tell me to use OnePlus pickup and drop and send device for repairs that way.
I do that, The pickup is done and I'm being told I'll get updates regarding it. I can see that my phone is delivered to the service center but there's nothing else happening.
I call OnePlus call support to provide me with more details regarding this but most of the agents just hang up on me. I am concerned because this is my primary device and I'm using a cracked OnePlus 8 now.
I have done nothing to damage the device and this seems to be a fault of OnePlus and I have to suffer without my phone. I don't know what to do. I was thinking of filing a complaint on consumer forum portal.
OnePlus as a company has degraded a lot. I have been a OnePlus fanboy since OnePlus One. I have all the devices and seems like I'm done.
OnePlus to be as they were is dead. There's no proper support and these people are really irresponsible. I have no clue what's happening with my phone.
I can't ever recommend a OnePlus phone to anyone anymore. Just get a pixel already.
My work and everything is affected because of my phone. I even asked if they would provide me with a compensation device or a temporary device but the customer support agents simply ignore and say that "they don't have the authority" and most of them have simply stayed quiet not saying a single word till I had to hang up.
I hope this article helps you to save some time by simply getting a pixel next time.
This from me is a goodbye to oneplus.
I was a sincere fan and all they did was disappoint.
Guess it's true that you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself as the villain.
On a side note I'd like to tell you more about that line.
It doesn't appear on black background.
Its like a blur line on other colors
When I scroll, the line weirdly turns green.
You people might be able to help with a retweet. So, here's my tweet :

Something doesn't add up.
How long was the warranty period for the OnePlus phone you have.
Which OnePlus region is your phone from? The model number will be on the box.
Which ROM do you have installed?

I'm with you. OP is dead. The customer service run around was a nightmare. I talked to an agent every 2-3 days and none of them could tell me anything useful. I emailed and support chat'd. No replies in email. Support chat doesn't understand English well enough and kept asking me unrelated questions but still couldn't help. I was just trying to return a device (10Trash).
It was never like that before. They claimed they sent the shipping label 5x but it never arrived to any email. I would get the reservation number email that comes just before the shipping label but never the label. I eventually got the return label by asking them to send it to multiple email addresses. While googling this issue, it's apparently not uncommon since 2020 on reddit and other places. People not receiving their label and blaming it on person, but they received the reservation email as well.
Then it sat in their facility for over a month, contacting agents every 2-3 days to get any update. Eventually some higher up reached out to me to tell me they hadn't processed my refund because I didn't return the case. Which was already mentioned that I just wanted the phone refunded, not the case. Somehow that information was lost. It took about 5 weeks to get the refund, after they had possession.
I put a bunch of friends and family onto OP devices because of how amazing the 5, 6 and 7 series were, the community support and the actual Support were also great at that time. I can no longer do that.
I've had Nexus and Pixel devices, I am hoping the Nothing Phone 2 or 3 is really great. This OP9 will be my last OP device and I will no longer recommend them.
Oppo/OP made a mistake doing things this way, maybe they didn't realize a lot of their popularity came from us 'tech guys' recommending them to our friends and family after such great experiences. And now it's too late for me, and you.
Of the 12 or so people I've got onto OP devices, about 10 of them are still using them. The other 2 went back to Samsung for the camera. As they come into EOL for their phones, I don't have a good suggestion for them, yet. I did just get another friend onto a OP9 this week (amazon $300, non pro) but I told him I can't recommend anything OP, newer than that so don't fall in love too much.
Of all of the mistakes I feel OP made, changing oos and bugs in android 12+ has to be the worst. I can deal with dumb customer service when the phone is so stable I don't need to talk to them. But they blew it all over.
I've never seen a OnePlus service center here, are you in India?

No ROM. I installed an OOS 12 OTA and boom there's a green line on my display. Warranty is over, as I've mentioned before.

Yeah, OnePlus was always a recommended phone from any friendly neighborhood 'tech guy'
And yeah, there was a time OnePlus made sense but right now its nothing but an average Chinese OEM and nobody gives a crap about OnePlus anymore tbh.
OnePlus is no longer anything special, or to put it in better words the OnePlus we all got to love and appreciate is dead.

I have a OnePlus 8 Pro that has been kept on OxygenOS 10. That was the last truly great operating system from OnePlus. It runs faster than some newer devices on Android 12. It's truly a shame because they're one of the only brands of Snapdragon phones that can be bootloader unlocked and rooted. Maybe you can roll back to Android 11, or unlock and flash to a custom AOSP rom.

c.66 I assume gave the green line and they have confirmed it. The OTAs are also paused I think. I've heard that 9 and 9R users are also having the green line issue.

You might try reaching out to OnePlus to see if they'll fix it under 'warranty' anyway. Maybe cite as many threads from here, OnePlus community (if that's still a thing), reddit and google, of others having the same issue. Maybe they are willing to do something for you. That's scary an OTA can brick the screen. Reminds me of the Nexus 6P ota that broke the main cpus

I've sent the device in. AND.. Spoiler alert to any future OnePlus Customers.. their service is an absolutely nightmare (I most certainly am not exaggerating this) . They simply will not tell you what is happening with your phone or how long will it even take until they do something about the issue. I had sent my device on 21st of October 2022 and so far I got nothing. My case was even escalated to their so-called 'higher team' specifically some guy named Anthony Francis but they also have been ignoring me. Their 'Higher Team' told me they will contact with an update in 5 days on 6th November but they have not given me any update till now that is 17th November. Will post email screenshots.

Every since OnePlus has merged with oppo they don't know what they're doing. You can see this with countless Nord phones coming out.
