[LG Thrill 4G] Trekfan422991:
will this process work on doomed roms???
[LG Thrill 4G] latinohot:
doubt it, i just tried and fail epicly(is that even a word?)
[LG Thrill 4G] Trekfan422991:
but it worked for you on thriller??
[LG Thrill 4G] latinohot:
yes it did and it was speedy, i was impressed

one thing that i didn't like was the fact i had no control on the kb

only the lg kb was able to function properly, the others would cause a FC

also the volume in the settings menu was broken, it also caused FC
[LG Thrill 4G] dcmcc99:
Works great. Only other issue is when i go to brightness in display in settings, i get a force close. Otherwise, looking good.
[LG Thrill 4G] a2r3f:
Same here, only problem i have encountered.
[LG Thrill 4G] wastingoctober:
Posted this earlier, but I got keyboards working by uninstalling (using Titanium Backup) the ones that came in the ROM. Then I just installed Swype which works fine. Not sure if installing one of the stock Froyo keyboards will work.
[LG Thrill 4G] latinohot:
nahh, i just gave up on this rom for now,

even thinking on leaving the phone alltogether and buy either iphone 4s or SGS2
[LG Thrill 4G] drdocta123:

Download them from the market.

They're not included in the Gapps anymore.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shakeyabooti:
Did you flash CM7 then let it boot then try go back into CWM? If you do the reverse ie: flash CM7 in CWM but before booting flash gapps and see if that works.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] phoenixbennu:
I wanted to make a small posting here to help out those with questions. While perusing through many threads here, I keep seeing the same question pop up "Do I need the new sim card to do wifi calling?" or a few concerns along those lines. While most try to help, many of the responses are based on "I heard some Tmo rep say yes/no/maybe so at some point in time"

So I wanted to clarify a few things. To help make sure that misinformation is not floating out around the interwebs, and to also address a couple concerns I saw complaints popping up about.

_________________________________________

You ABSOLUTELY have to have the sim card that came with the phone to do wifi calling. NO EXCEPTIONS.

To Identify the proper sim card, it will say TM9177 on it, and the big card it punches out of will have a magenta bar across the top, which is unique to this card.

Old and new cards are pretty much the same, except for the ability to support to newer version of wifi calling and other related features, as well as the ability to support more than the previous storage capacity of 250 contacts. It supports 508 now.

Many store reps will take your new sim card, either by your willing cooperation or not. They do this because the stores want to have a stock of sim cards because it cuts store costs, among other reasons. That sim card is YOUR sim card. Its a $20.00 accessory most of the time, and its like a store rep taking the headphones out and saying "Just use the ones you already have." It is theft, and if they take your sim card you need to address it with their manager or customer relations. Many managers and store reps see it as an acceptable practice, but it is not. When you buy something, it is yours, and all contents of the packaging are yours. On top of that, they are setting you up for issues with wifi calling because you will not have a proper sim card. I make a big case about this because I am seeing numerous complaints about people who want to be prepared to use wifi calling actually stating how the store agent took their sim card, sometimes against their will.

All of this information is general knowledge, and open content. If you call in and speak with an informed agent they can go into more depth with this. I recommend calling in vs going in the store. No offense to the store agents, but many store agents are not tech trained (as their main focus is sales, not troubleshooting and in depth knowledge) and phone agents go through far more training than in store agents (i.e. a training course in store gets run through like someone trying to beat a yellow light, because taking the course takes you off the floor to make sales, whereas phone reps take their time and are tested more on the info) I appreciate the fine work that truly informed and good in store reps perform, and there definitely are very poor reps in any department, however by phone you are more likely to get proper information since reps not only are trained harder on info but also have more knowledgeable access to resources. Just a recommendation.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] movieaddict:
Ty for the info most i already knew but some i didnt like how to tell them apart, ty for that!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] striderx:
Update

Also make sure your carrier account is updated with your "accurate/known" e911 address.

Also, make sure under Settings > Location, the "Use Wireless Address" is NOT checked.

The Wifi-calling app tries to match the 911 address with the address it finds using wireless network - if that doesnt match or if its not a known address, the wifi calling gives an error - REG99: Unable to connect

The new Wifi Calling OTA update might fix all these dependencies.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] saudi2usa:
I dont have the WI-FI calling !! can't find it no where even in the markett !!

any ideas ?

T-SS2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ThC23:
It's not out yet, there will be an update within the next week or so that will include Wifi Calling. Just be patient, it's almost here.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bhagiratha:
I purchased my phone a few weeks ago from a local store here in Brooklyn, NY and since I am on the Value Plan and don't get phone upgrades and I have to buy at full price.

Since that was the case, the store employee said that they cannot sell me the phone unless I get some sort of pre-paid package deal that is required by the store for them to sell me the phone.

In any case, I agreed and the transaction was made.

Now, in reference to the SIM card that should have come with the phone, I looked for it in the box after reading this post last night and it was not there.

So now I am assuming that they used that SIM card to pre-program that $50 value one month pre-paid plan on the SIM which I ended up giving my mom since I had put in the SIM from my other tmobile phone into the SGS2.

Now since the store used that new SIM from the box of the SGS2 and didn't even tell me, can I go back to the store and request a SIM without paying the $20 fee for it?

thank you
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] blue11:
Thank you VERY much for this. I bought a Note 2 about a week ago, and kept getting REG99 errors. Went back to the store, has them swap the SIM card out for one as you described, and Wi-Fi calling started working immediately.

You rock. :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] JLG1985:
Ordered my Galaxy Note already cuz it was supposedly due to arrive for release on 11/01/11 but now AFTER THEY DEBITED MY CC, that may be changing. The new word is it may end up being 11/17/11 after all just as originally announced and this SUCKS of course cuz I chose this over the Nexus due to the earlier release date. :confused:

Otherwise I would've waited and saved on the accruing interest charges - although I could've saved the credit just in case of an emergency of some sort. Hell I've never paid full price for a phablet or smartphone before let alone buy an unlocked version. :eek:

This better be worth it baby! It better be worth it.

I sure am going to miss getting those updates from Google earlier than a carrier would've released 'em.

The price is with it to me considering its going to be somewhere in the neighborhood of $299 - $399 WITH A 2-year contact. So do I think it worth the price? Hell yes I do!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] JLG1985:
You scared the **** out of me!!! The difference in pricing comes down to the shipping fees. I pre-ordered early, like when they announced it on September 1. I've been hitting the site daily finally saw a sort of decent price and spanked that monkey baby!

It could also have been the exchange rate too. I called Handtec and the difference comes down to shipping making Clove & Handtec pretty much the same price +/- a few $$$. That isn't enough to make me cancel the order and go with Handtec. Also, Handtec seems a little confused when you ask specific questions relating to specs and other info.

Maybe it was just the hit I dealt with - I dunno. Lastly, they're offering a version"network unlocked" which as he described as "upon boot I would see a network logo and from then on it would be basically unlocked, and that could be taken care of by either rooting the PHABLET or some other kind of software solution". Oh the price for that version is roughly £448.99 if you want to take a chance on that. They are expecting to receive they're first shipment on 10/31 and puter-orders will go out that same day.

Sounds awful confusing comming from a sales rep from such a well known dealer. For me that pretty much sealed Handtec' fate of me NOT buying a phablet from them.

Swyped on my HTC EVO 4G Supersonic baby!

Does anyone have experience with bestnydepot? They claim to have the Note in stock for $610. It even looks like they have a local pickup option in New York. Their website also looks a bit more credible than some of those pop up vendors I've come across before.

Not exactly. I sold my last two smartphones (Epic 4G and Atrix) recently in anticipation of this phone, so I'm really only spending about $100 for the Note.

I'm so glad I keep my phones in pristine condition :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] carhigh:
I always do that kind of stuff. Got my infuse, iconia tab and an old iphone 2g for sale to help pay for this phone :)

That's really one of the only logical ways to go about buying phones like these on a consistent basis. Why would you buy a phone without planning to keep its resale value in the future? :P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] carhigh:
Is this going to come with a USA charger? If not, will a infuse charger work? It looks like its a micro usb?

I hate all of you in the States :mad:

If I was in NY I'd go that I2D2 place and pick one up in a second! But instead I'd have to get it shipped to Canada and then pay taxes, brokerage fees etc..

I could drive to NY but that would take like 8hours :rolleyes:

Plus I need my passport renewed
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] BigTuras:
Might be worth a day trip to avoid those fees. I thought you could come across from Canada with just a drivers license. Is that not the case anymore?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Suzook1:
ok so USA folks, how about an update. Where did you get your note and what is the lowest price you have seen thus far. Amazon.com has it for $744 is what I have found so far.

I'll be visiting NY next week, and i already emailed www.bestNYdepot.com to check if pick up is available with cash payment. According to their info they are located on an office inside the Empire State Building, and i'm going to the roof anyways... so i preffer to pay $50 in taxes and have a phisical phone than saving it and losing $610.

I'll let you know as soon as i get it, because $610 its an excellent price, almost too good to be true.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] PickleHead:
welp, I just did the deed.

I paid for priority shipping because UPS and fedex drops any and all packages at the door regardless. When I bought my HP touchpads, they were left there covered in HP TOUCHPAD 16 GB labels.

USPS has special lockboxes for large items and they put the key in our little mailbox :)

Nice to know that I won't have to worry about getting home quickly.

Now time to make an ebay ad for my captivate...

Guys,

Try getting it from India.

It costs 34,990 INR that would be around 700$ when converted to USD.

The best thing that I could see.

pannna
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] koniakki:
Just checked the Ebay India for the Note and SGS2 also and their prices are not that bad. They can compare with the prices of the German Ebay which is pretty good. But there's catch.

I see nowhere mentioning shipping outside. Might be possible if requested but I prefer to pay in my own currency to avoid the conversion rates.

Also there are 2 Note's on Ebay India. 486euro(668.436USD) and 498.64(686usd).

I can get it from Amazon.de for 506euros(696USD) so it was worth looking for but it's a no go. Let's hope someone from the US can get it from India cheaper.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Twohothardware:
I'd say it's either a price mistake which they likely won't honor or they're trying to rip you off in some way by leaving out certain details.

Check out Technotradinghouse dot com. I've never purchased anything from them but I saw their listings for the Galaxy Note on eBay and Amazon so I went directly to their website and they have it for $745 with free shipping. Will have to check to see what kind of warranty service you can get through them though because most likely you'll be on your own.

Personally I think Handtec or Expansys-US are your two best choices to purchase a Galaxy Note in the US even if you have to pay a little more. Both have great customer service and you'll get the full 2 year Samsung warranty through them.
