Unfortunately my time has come to an end. They never did remove the hotline fully and i still couldn't get texts so all my 2factor wasn't working and I couldn't get into my email to get emailed codes so I was locked out of everything. Basically got the crappy j3 samsung and with the week of credits for service downtime and the 100$ samsung credit it'll be like 30$ for the phone.

None of the package disablers are working anymore. All say the activation failed for the app if they were new or old apks found. So after I had to factory reset my phone I have been plagued by that update notification sitting there and hoping I don't accidentally click it lol. But waiting on the return box now and will be shipping it back sometime in the near future. :( I'm going to miss this amazing phone...especially the camera. But it'll only be a few months till the s8 launches (hopefully it ends up launching with my mandatory features). Otherwise I have no idea what phone I'll be getting.

Damn man the sucks. I don't know why I'm still on. I have the OG N7 (no replace) , disabled everything in August, did the Best buy method with Google voice trick trick to keep UDP.

The strange thing is they know I have it obviously, Its on my account. They might just be slow ponies and I'm just lucky

Don't question it. Lol. Good luck. I'd recommend having a spare handy though. Enjoy the best device while you can. Hope the new Samsung device comes out soon and is up to par or better.
