I'm surprised that Samsung hasn't pushed a mandatory update yet that locks all remaining Note 7s into permanent Airplane Mode. That would likely get 98% of these things off the market.

So you actually have a 2100mAh battery instead of a 3500mAh battery. You probably will find yourself charging your phone several times a day.

People are blocking any update from Samsung with EZ Disabler. It stops any update to the Note.

I just got EZ Disabler and disabled 'Software Updates' (com.sec.android.soagent). It no longer shows up listed in Application Manager, but I can still see it listed and disabled in EZ Disabler. I also disabled notifications from both the Samsung and Android instances of the 'System Updates' app.

Does that sound like it should cover me from being forced into receiving or even being notified about a new OS version? I definitely don't want my battery capacity capped. I'm not interested in even considering it until we get a definitive, complete explanation of what causes the battery meltdowns.
