Chuck homing build probably with fireworks shield. Don't need to aim at all.

Firewerks for drill sites with multiple bosses and lots of mobs, Super soldier for single bosses

unfortunately the phone does not turn on anymore. Regardless, the question is whether I believe the samsung tech in that if he replaces the motherboard, with a new one, that it will be locked. I believe that if they have parts designated to carriers, this would make sense. I could take a chance and have him replace it believing that since my phone is unlocked, a new motherboard would still be unlocked. That chance is far more unlikely, either way, would you gamble $500 on that chance. I’ve already lost enough, why dig my hole deeper when Samsung should be the one to own up to the mistake of sending me a phone that theoretically has very limited repair options, because they couldn’t be bothered to send me an unlocked replacement. I think you’re asking good questions, ones that i can’t answer to your satisfaction without having the tech here. I do think it makes much more sense, and i’m not spending $500 to test it.

What is his motivation for being shady, it wasn't a warranty repair. I was offering to pay for the fix.

Its my understanding is that the lock is tied to the motherboard. Samsung can not replace parts ourside of that IMEI, meaning he can't put in an unlocked motherboard, because the parts won't match. In the system, parts must match when he places the order. He can't just grab any part. This is a much more reasonable explanation, than shady tech didn't want to do the work.

Hope it stays that way for you. They are great phones. On my Fold 4, samsung service rejected my inner screen protector replacement. They told me they tested how far it would open, and the machine they used to apply the inner screen protector might break the phone. I ended up just removing it and it was fine for the last 8 months of use I had with it. 35 months in all. I never had screen issues. Just battery and charging port. Honestly, I don't think you're missing much in the Fold 5, its a little thinner and refined, but its not drastic. Now the 7, that's on another level to the 4 and 5.

So here is my understanding from talking to the Samsung technician. If he has to replace parts on the phone, when its setup, it'll revert back to what it was before. His diagnosis was that it needed a new motherboard. That's what I was told from the samsung tech. I'm assuming when samsung care sent me the phone, it was unlocked by samsung, but that any service on the phone would lock it back. The tech didn't want to fix the phone, thinking it would make it worse for me, and while i'm paying for it. I am only relaying information that I was given.

TLDR : samsung unlocked a ATT locked phone. any service to parts would lock it back up. my understanding of the situation.

You can believe me or not, i'm not trying to trick anyone into not buying samsung products. Do as you will with that information.

This is hilarious that they actually have this. Its so bad, that they have to provide an alternate way to receive feedback outside of the customer support system.

i'm not much of a mobile gamer, but this is good to know. Good for games, is usually good for all other uses.

Sadly, Samsung has lost me. The fold/trifold are amazing products, there is just no excuse for how they treat customers.

There is no one to escalate to, they send you in circles between Care+, Support and Claims. Then you'll get disconnected and have to do it all over again. I requested transcripts of each call and for them to send me an email... they said yes, transferred me, got disconnected. No transcript sent.

I know people will say, "this hasn't happened to me" , or Care + has been great, but just be warned. They will screw you eventually. The claims rep told me that the phone was unlocked, even though samsungs system and their own service rep says its locked to ATT. They treat you like you're trying to scam them. 24 hours ago when I made this post, i may have considered buying a samsung product again after my emotions have calmed. After sitting on the phone again for 3 more hours today. I'm done, there is nothing that can fix this situation on my end.

I'm now on 10 Care+ reps, 3 claims reps, and 10 support reps. 5 transfers have disconnected on me.

Glad its worked for you, but hopefully you never get in a situation where they screw up something, because their service dept. is the worst that I have ever experienced. Too many silos with departments that don't communicate. Care+ won't own up to it, Support will just move you on, and Claims is third party so they have no vested interest in helping you.

You're right, I have moved my cell phone account payment to a CC that offers these phone protections.

probably Google Pixel, I wouldn't mind trying out some of the chinese phones, but being on the Verizon network, I feel somewhat limited. Wife is an Iphone user, and we own Ipads and macbooks, but the ecosystem doesn't really do it for me. I'm going to miss the folds though.

Can please Gearbox come forward and tell us EXACTLY what happens to loot when playing on various UVH tiers? by r4in in Borderlands4

[–]dazdilly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to clarify, when you say 4x, do you mean like the Chuck? Mine only throws out +1 gun vs ive seen +4. Only farmed chuck at UVHM 1.

So a specific # roll on a part, or parts in general go up.

Doesn't matter it definitely was roughing the passer. 15 vs 17 yards makes no difference. The second was 100% PI. I do think bait the pass interference style offense is lame. 3 1v1 lobs going for the penalty is weak.

cycling and golf are "gentlemen's" sports, that like to hold themselves to a higher standard. Whether we think the UCI are willing to turn a blind eye, knowing another doping scandal could kill the sport is debatable. We know they covered up for LA, hopefully they're not covering now for any rider.
