if i remember correctly, they do have multiple CSC in one FW right uncle?

Yes and you can choose the one you need from the steps I had just posted above
Some users are especially particular and wants the exact version before sending in for warranty
I had claim before warranty on my Note 5 with a Euro official firmware too
I doubt the service center will even consider CSC for warranty claims

they dont even check the knox tripped, i dont think they will check the firmware CSC. i think they only check the IMEI and is it register under SME warranty. thats it..

Very true - I had claim successfully with Knox tripped 3X. Two times I send in personally while the 3rd time was through a collection center in BP. The guy in charge even advise me to unroot it properly and that Knox was unimportant too. The important thing is the phone must be fully unrooted and devise status must be back to official. One can unroot through the app SuperSU at its settings or a longer tedious way is to re flash official firmware using Odin in PC

Sounds like so far all the bootloop issues are caused by fw issues. Wonder should i still tell my colleagues to buy n7 though or wait for second batch

I doubt it is firmware and if it is so every user will be affected

any disadvantage of using this app??
*
NO disadvantage but use it smartly. All the apps will be listed out including all system stuffs
Restoring any disabled app is simply just a click
Especially on some system stuffs do not disabled if you are unsure what those are but than you can easily enable them back
If you choose to disable any system stuffs try go back to its settings menu and go through related stuffs and assess any issues
Some users choose easy way out and choose disable all bloatware and than complain why many stuffs gone missing ??

I feel that my S7E is more fluid than note 7. My S7E already 3months still fine but the note7 out of the box already can feel the jerkiness when pulling down the menu and doing other things. Is it too many things running like the S-pen software, etc?

Only the note7 fingerprint is way faster than S7e. On the note7 is almost instant unlock.

My experience is opposite of yours
The Note7 is so much slicker and smoother than the S7e

Hey does anyone have touch screen issue on your note 7?
Like when u pull down the quick settings slider and try to press the small settings icon on the top right corner to go into the full settings
That icon part doesn't work at all time even i use S pen to tap on it
I have to restart the phone then it works again but after some time it does not work at all
This issue occurs since the first day i got the phone from preorder
I did factory reset twice and updated to the latest firmware but the problem still the same
Every time it stop working i have to restart the phone
It is so annoying
Is it software issue? or the touch screen defects?

NEED HELP!!
*
No such problems at all on mine
Try factory reset and if is still the same than I suggest you send in to check touch screen

Dangerous. I don't dare to factory reset my phone.

You should try to find out whether your phone is problematic or not
You can always go and claim a new set if it goes into bootloop

I read about this app before ... but since i quite noob, don't dare to use ... is there any "safe list" which is like CONFIRM bloatware and is ok to disable ? is there a list anywhere ? hmm ...

I use my phone quite heavily, whatsapp and camera and waze ... my battery can't last a full day sad.gif

You can identify all the bloatware as is listed out in red color instead of blue
It is safe to disable and it won't brick the phone
It could only possibly disable some features of the phone
Test yourself and enabling back all you had disabled or certain app is just a simple click
You can Google for a list ( many sites) of supposedly safe app. I only browse through it and chose to select those which I do not need ..
Disabling app will NOT help you greatly on battery life
If battery life is crucial the best I had experienced is still Samsung A9pro . My SOT is 13-14 hours vs 7-8 for Note7 ( mainly internet stuffs with no gaming)

I don't think one can conclude by looking at date of manufacture the phone is defective. Some of those manufactured on same date could be using different batches of components.
Mine is 5 Aug and had been fine till today. Some users are same as me while some reported reboot problems
Anyway those affected should immediately go and claim a replacement as Samsung had acknowledge this problem.

Btw is the cases you all use will cause issue to the wireless charging?

All cases I had used doesn't affect wireless charging. This is true for other phones that support wireless charging.

The cable for the powerbank is hidden beneath the case holding the powerbank
If your set is sealed it should be there

But the phone is brand new, can't accept the fact I have paid so much to purchase such defected unit.

You should insist for a replacement as others had so successfully done
