[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ozidroid:
I just bought a Galaxy Note, and will be getting an at&t plan and sim for it in the US, and will port over my Verizon # to it.

I'm moving from an original Motorola Droid, currently running CM7. Think I'll notice a little difference? :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BarryH_GEG:
So far, Samsung's LTE phones have all used Qualcomm chips. They're actually different phones but are marketed under the SGS2 name. I'm guessing if it was easy to add LTE to Exynos they'd go that route rather than using a competitors chip. So unless they release a Qualcomm version of the Note AT&T's version probably will be HSPA+.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Apo11on:
Korean version is being released on ST Telecom. It's a CDMA carrier, which uses the exact same technologies and frequencies as Sprint in US.

---------- Post added at 06:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:09 PM ----------

I have reviewed all FCC filing docs for AT&T version of Note and I can guarantee AT&T version will not have LTE radio on board. HSPA+ only

---------- Post added at 06:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:17 PM ----------

wow, you seem to be seriously confused! AT&T is GSM carrier, South Korean ST Telecom is CDMA. The only thing you'll be able to do with korean note on AT&T network is use it as a paper weight for your bills.

I find it extremely interesting that Samsung has filed with the FCC for an AT&T version of the Note. The question I have is has Samsung filed with the FCC for a Verizon version?

No Verizon version on the horizon

Not that I've seen.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waghoba:
can anyone explain how the $10 unlimited non-smartphone data plan works? and I agree that they cannot identify your unlocked phones IMEI, but will AT&T get notified by higher D/L speeds used by phone and may be they will charge me extra for usage?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Product F(RED):
Unlimited is unlimited. They can't argue with that. And they can't ask you to identify which phone you're using. And even if they did, you could lie and they couldn't say otherwise. Dumbphones do 3G as well now.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waghoba:
thanks for reply, but I just wanted to confirm that such plan exist and if anyone is actually using it? If yes, then I just made fool of myself last year by signing a 2 yr contract with ATT, as I was having my unlocked smartphone and I would have rather preferred the above mentioned scheme and bought my own unlocked phone as and when required instead of signing a 2 yr contract :/
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RMXO:
There are a lot of ppl that use the MediaNet with an international phone. That is one of the main reason why ppl buy international phones on AT&T.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waghoba:
ok....but now what is MediaNet??

http://www.wireless.att.com/learn/messaging-internet/media-entertainment/faq.jsp
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Product F(RED):
MediaNET is basically the name of the data plan for feature/messaging phones. ie a Motorola Razr. But you can put the APN for it into a smartphone.

The only phones AT&T can identify are the ones that are branded as AT&T and sold by them. They have a database of IMEI numbers. Any other type of phones can't be identified by them. Same for T-Mobile. For CDMA carriers (Sprint, Verizon), it's the same except with ESN/MEID #s.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seth Turner:
The dream is dead...

Can't convince my wife to switch from Verizon to AT&T. Without her moving with me I would be buying a phone for $700 from UK and then paying about $50 per month more than I pay now for service. Doesn't make much financial sense.

Guess I'll have to settle for the Galaxy Nexus. /sigh
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BarryH_GEG:
AT&T still uses the name MediaNet to describe some of their services but the only plan still being sold is the "Data for non-Smartphones" plan. It's an add-on to a post-paid voice plan and is either $10 if you buy unlimited messaging or $15 without. If you bring your own equipment to AT&T, and don't receive any new phone subsidization, you can be put on a contract-less plan. If you want to shop plans online add a Samsung Solstice to your cart, it's a data-capable non-smartphone. If you already signed up for a regular plan I don't know what to tell you. A contracted plan entitles you to a phone so you may as well get a iP4S in white and sell it on eBay to help cover the cost of your Note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigmout:
Not sure that would work. Doesn't the iPhone use a different sized SIM than the Note?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leaverus:
iphone4s uses micro-sim but the electronics are same as standard size sim. So if inserting micro-sim in standard slot, just need an adapter and if inserting standard sim in micro slot just need to cut the sim down to appropriate size and shape.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigmout:
Gotcha, thanks for the explanation.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Selkie:
Just Curious...

I'm curious why everyone seems to take this route. If you have an unlocked phone and want unlimited data why not do the prepaid unlimited plan? It's 50 bucks a month for unlimited everything (if you sign up with a "dumbphone") which, compared to the cheapest route in the above scenario, would save you 20 bucks a month. Unless I'm missing something.

I use to use the above scenario with my HTC Touch HD, but when I borrowed a friends unused iPhone for a couple days, AT&T caught the IMEI change and adjusted my data plan to the smart phone package. I have been using that ever since. Now with the Note's release, I'm considering down sizing my plan again, and I can't think of any reason why the prepaid plans wouldn't work.

If anyone has any experience with it, please correct me.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b15love:
Prepaid networks aren't as large as monthly networks hence the price difference
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Product F(RED):
If it's an iPhone 2G on 3.X firmware, you can spoof the IMEI. I did that on my old one and made it show up as a Razr.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Selkie:
I didn't realize there was a difference, although it doesn't appear to affect coverage in my area. Thanks for the heads up.

It's a 3GS with IOS 5. I can't wait to be off of it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jason370:
i'm doing exactly this. 50 bucks, all in. I spoke at length with att csr and they said you cant use this with a iphone or windows phone but it is fine with android.

I'm currently paying 120/month on tmous so this should nicely subsidize the cost of the s-note in under a year
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pops_G:
It should be on sale in India now right? I wonder how that would work out in $dollars. Most sites say rs30000 = $609.14. Cheaper than from Europe and no VAT. I wonder if the Indian version would work on AT&T bands.

Anyone know any web stores based in India?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waghoba:
Thanks for explaining this...but I am already done with 1 yr 3 months of my 2 yr contract..so after 2 yrs I will just end my contract and cancel my smartphone plan and will get non smartphone data plan with my own device...or if I get too impatient, I will terminate my contract after another 4-5 months if Galaxy SIII releases at that time...:D:D

http://www.flipkart.com/mobiles this is the most trusted one, but they don't ship internationally :( if you know someone from India, you can always ask him to bring one for you and you can order from site to ship to India address...

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockky:
could you please explain this more. My understanding is both access the same network. Thanks
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
OK here is the gist of prepaid network vs carrier networks.

Carriers subcontract out their cell transmission to other companies... no surprise.

But, most of what they sell to 3rd parties is where they have extra capacity. So, the short answer is this

In big metropolitan areas you get the same service, but in less populated areas you may get worse service or no service depending on how the contracts were written. So, if you do not travel much or at all.... metro or boost etc may be great options for you. But like me, I am in many different states every year. So, I need the reliability of a carrier and I pay more for it. But, I do not see the savings as all that great my total cost is 76.00 per month for unlimited everything on TMO so to me, I do not think the 20-25 dollar saving per month is worth the reduced coverage.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cushcalc:
AT&T has LTE but it is hardly rolled out anywhere yet. AT&T does have HSPA+ which theoretically is capable of 21MBs. The Galaxy Note is HSPA+ capable but not LTE, AFAIK

---------- Post added at 07:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:32 AM ----------

Whatever phone you put your AT&T SIM card into, AT&T can determine what the phone is, and they may ding you for the appropriate smartphone plan.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxh:
They only recognize AT&T branded phones (with 1 or 2 exceptions in the past) because those are the only ones they have IMEIs for in their database. Plenty of people are successfully using the international GSII and the Note on dumbphone plans.

I suggest to those looking for a revamped experience with batt life for the epic touch 4g, to use the zedomax epic-touch v3 1.6oc kernel tar flash in odin, and use juice defender from market set to aggressive,

Ive done those to things, and i have epic up for 8 hours 1% drain 99% batt left with moderate usage!

this is like iphone batt quality!! NO im not an iphone fan:eek:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Akradroid:
1% drain? that's kinda unbelievable. Insane!!!!

To know you have the kernel flashed successfully, go to settings/about/ kernel version should say

2.6.35.7 zedomaxepictouchv3-

How to odin flash this ,select pda only ,choose the tar file ,then start

its rediculous anymore!

Maybe the sites moderators, "those that arent in this group themselves", should further look into maybe tossing those that never do **** to involve themselves into the bettering of a device instead of how to dictate how theyr"e so right and everyone else is so wrong with smartass comments!

I get the same exact battery savings with a freeware feature on the phone. It's called the Power Button. I shut my phone off and when needing to make a call, I shut it off again right after hanging up. Battery life has been similar if not better than yours without having to use an additional app.

[Nook Touch General] filterxg:
I just bought a refurbished Nook Touch on overstock for $75 (with coupon). I've already got a Nook Color, which I love, but I don't like the harsh light from the LCD at night. I also live near the beach and having the option of taking my reading material there would be awesome.

Anyway I'll be rooting it right away, as the Economist and the WSJ are two of my major reads and I need to get to the android market for those.

1) With the scrolling/rendering limitations of E-ink, is there any page up/down option available?

2) Are there any other customizations that you guys like, and feel like it makes the downside of an eink a little more palatable?

3) Is there any effort in creating a (GB+) custom ROM or (and I'm dreaming) CM with a custom launcher? Just something I can track, and support once they have a working alpha/beta. I'm a little worried for the future of my little e-ink tablet if it never gets a software update.

Anyway thanks for the great material already posted and I look forward to learning more.

Thanks!

[LG Revolution] jamRwoo:
I could've sworn my Dad has an Otterbox case for his Revo, but maybe I misunderstood him. I'll take a look at it when I see him tomorrow...Whatever it is, it's pretty sturdy and actually protects the phone if dropped/thrown/etc. without adding too much bulk.

Only downside is it makes swapping out batteries a bit of a pain, as that thing is snapped on there pretty tight.

I own the Trident Kraken case and it is pretty much the twin of the otterbox. It has the silicone liner with the hard rubberized case on the outside. the only downfall I can say about it is that it sticks to the inside of some of my pockets. Not terrible but enough to notice.

I have not noticed anyone mention this before, but anyone on the Telus Network who flashed CM ROM on their phone know that your network reports as "302220" and not "Telus"

I have a bunch of modems I'm flashing to test out the speed I get on mobile data, wifi, and signal. Over the past I've flashed maybe 15 different modems. I was suprised just now when I flashed "I9000BVJV2" and the network now says "Telus" and not "302220"

I've never really cared about it, but I've tried various things with files in the phone trying to make it say telus, for sole sake to see if I could make it say Telus. Atleast I now know that it's really no phone settings that I can change.
