Apparently Samsung will release an ota and prevent the phone from even charging beyond 60% for those who refuse to get the device replaced.

                    I can see it being used by ANY OTHER organisation that wish to safeguard employees or property say

                    As people react differently to any situations that involve mobile phonesI can see some still using it even if it tests positive.

                        Realizing how inaccurate the IMEI checker was, they took it off and redirect the link to Support Page.

                        While I applaud them for attempting their best on the recall, this goes back to what everyone stated; replaceable battery.

                            This phone is the "bomb" of the year, the best you can have with so much money, but it's great because it has fireworks function, this makes me so happy :)))

                              The link redirects to the support page. Instead, I was able to find this link that takes you to the IMEI check page.

                                      Gotta give it to Samsung for taking care of this battery mess and being able to recognize which devices are defective. Hopefully the issue doesn't escalate further.
