Samsung Halts Production of Note 7 as Battery Problems Linger - The New York Times

I'm guessing "temporarily," in this context, means forever

"The decision amounts to a major setback for Samsung, the world’s biggest smartphone maker, which continues to struggle with the industry’s largest-ever recall. Already Samsung had said it would recall 2.5 million Note 7 phones over reports that its battery can catch fire. The halt suggests the South Korean company has not yet gotten the problem under control.

The decision came after major mobile carriers in the United States said they would stop issuing Note 7 devices over safety concerns. They too were responding to reports that some new phones were catching fire."
