The 6th Amendment gives you the right to face your accuser, but there are plenty of concessions that the legal system makes for accusers in cases like these. They can be interviewed out of sight of the accused, and only have to face attorneys. I’m pretty skeptical of any claims of harassment or abuse that don’t get…

Wait, I’m supposed to carry around cash just so I can give it away to people? I’ll pass. What a stupid article. Any reason not to give tips is great.

You can’t fly with it, or take it on a train, so nobody is putting anyone else at risk. It isn’t about being lazy, it is about refusing to downgrade to an objectively worse phone, because the next model is being released within a few months anyway. If Samsung offered customers a voucher for the uocoming phone, and a…

You need to disable the two system update packages with a package disabler app. No root required. Just hunt around for one that hasn’t been bullied by Samsung into blacklisting the Note 7 from disabling it, as most have. Then DON’T update your package disabler app, because if Samsing forces them to change it, it could…

Relax. When was “gimped” last commonly used in reference to disabled people? 60+ years ago? Words are not forever tainted like that.

I believe there are certain laws in the U.S. that would be violated with that. Legally, every phone HAS to be capable of making 911 calls (probably why they aren’t blocking the phone completely like some countries are doing), and dropping the max percentage that low could be argued to say that is impossible. 60% is…

No, just afraid that they could start selling phones with disclaimers in the small print saying that the phone is only guaranteed to work for 2 years and disable it after that. If you think that is unlikely, I’d love to live in the consumer friendly world you reside in, where corporations aren’t greedy and unethical .

Download Package Disabler Pro, and disable the Software Update service. That should make it impossible for the device to even look for updates.

... seriously?

People aren’t turning them in because Samsung isn’t offering a good alternative. You can downgrade to an S7 or get a refund. Sadly, though, there aren’t any phones on the market that can match the Note 7. If anyone can point me to a waterproof phone with a 5.7 inch 1440p screen with SD card and stylus support, I’d be…

That is kind of overkill. Just download a package disabler and disable the software update service. No root required.
