Only took 2 hours on the phone trying to get a hold of the damn SERO department but i got to order my 32gb White GS3 first thing in the morning on 6/5. Cant wait to get it!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] aznmode:
Reuter updated..

"However, U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh said she has many other cases. If Apple decides to seek a restraining order, it would likely delay a July trial date over different Samsung phones, as well as the Galaxy Tab 10.1."

"I cannot be an Apple v. Samsung judge," Koh said."

Big chance we will get ours...woot!!

EDIT: Actually NM its talking about pushing back other court dates regarding other devices not the restraining order. Got lost for a sec. I'm sure apple will go for the restraining order first. Dang it.

How soon can we know whether there'll be a restraining order or not?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] archtech3d:
Apparently they will try to file it by tomorrow... read that somewhere.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mercado79:
Just came back from pre-ordering at Best Buy. They confirmed that they won't be getting the 32GB at launch...for Sprint. They will be carrying the 32GB for Verizon. Oh well... It wasn't meant to be.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shortbus182:
Probably old news, but if you live in California, you can shun the sales tax on $599 by ordering online through Sprint. This won't work with telesales, or brick and mortar stores.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gingson:
Pre-ordered mine the first day it was offered on Sprint's website.

Apple is finally accepting defeat and is resorting to other means to stay on top. Shame on Apple.

I too will be switching from the OG evo. How do the Dev threads work with all the mixed carriers?

Sent from my heart
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nicholaaaas:
it's my understanding that porting from the international version to the US versions is fairly simple. and the only difference in the US versions is (for the most part) the radios. so one rom for all US versions
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Devtodi:
Ats right and if you call and pretend that you want to order by phone, complain about activation fee, threaten to go to Verizon and you can get a credit to compensate from the retentions dept.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jfree3000:
Upgrade eligible on July 1st, can't wait to read your reviews on the phone by then.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ceelos09:
Anyone get their tracking pre-order tracking e-mail yet? I've been constantly refreshing my e-mail in hopes that I catch the e-mail containing the shipping info :p
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dcaplinger76:
Same here, wish they could just let me get it 9 days early
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] :
I am also childishly impatient for this phone's arrival. I'm thinking, though, that Sprint saying they'll try to "get it to you before others see it on June 21st" really would mean they'll get it to you on the 21st, hopefully before too late in the day.

Does anyone have previous experience with pre-ordering and getting it earlier than the official launch day? I'm trying not to get hopes high for an earlier arrival... though I'll still be querying my order status hourly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
i could see someone dropping it and breaking it and trying to tell you how its "just a phone" ... I dont even like the people at sprint touching it when the activate them im like dont take the screen thing off just stop touching it!!! :o
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nabbed:
Hmm. How do you access order history? I just tried both the chat and called sprint, and both said that order history is not available from sprint.com.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
im also really worried that they sold more then they had .... just like the airlines overbooking seats :(

---------- Post added at 01:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:20 PM ----------

log in and the in the recent payments box click see details then on the right side youll see the i want to list and theres an order history link :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Anon9mouz:
I feel that...On a side note I'm glad I still have a great phone for the time being just sucks for the rest with not so current technology

Sprint's customer service people are completely clueless.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
at least the ones we have now are americans for years the call center folks in India were horrible

I think the Concept of Clueless transcends the geographical and racial boundaries.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
yeah but at least I can understand these clueless folks :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mlin:
And at least they can understand you. Language barriers cam completely block effective communication thus the reason call centers in India left so many Sprint customers unsatisfied and placed sprint as one of the worst ranked companies in customer service in the country.

I have confirmed from Sprint, that any XDA member and Communities.sprint.com members that have asked about the status of their S3 phone more than 3 times will be placed at the end of the shipment list.

you will also be getting an empty UPS box on the 20th, just to further "poke the bear".

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sekigah84:
Poor rox. I went over to the Epic 4g Touch and left you handling things over with the Evo 4G lol. I'll be doing another one huge wall o text Q+A post for the GS3 once I get it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jerrybritt:
Not to argue but....

Account Services told me just the opposite - oy# means nothing, DM is what you should be following. Even told me how to get it and where to check it. My oy# for my EVO LTE still shows order processing.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Magic Oreo:
if you have a oy, how do you get a dm?

nvm, logged in and found the dm under recent orders.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dtr145r:
Does anyone know if the gs3 cdma does voice and data at the same time? I've read somewhere that it does because it has 2 radios and I read another place that it only has one radio and can't do both at the same time??

Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jahspree:
should be. thats how the EVO LTE is.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mercado79:
Yes, it'll support the same protocol / technology that's in the Evo LTE:

http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/...-galaxy-s3-passes-fcc-muster-launch-imminent/
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stevesprivateaccount:
Very misleading. Technically all of Sprints 4G phones can do voice and data at the same time when leveraging 4G. You could do voice and data using WiMAX as well.

What will NOT work is 3G data and voice a the same time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] teh roxxorz:
Lol its all good. I will be sure to support that one too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CapsLockKey:
SVDO is Simultaneous 1X/3G voice/data. The EVO LTE and SG3III are the only phones I know of who have this on Sprint at this point.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jahspree:
Yes it will. i know because I'm doing it now on my EVO LTE.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jnadke:
WRONG.

The new EVO LTE and GS3 have separate radios and antennas for 1x and EVDO 3G, so they can do both voice and data at the same time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mercado79:
You sure about that? The article states that it'll support SVDO (simultaneous voice and data) and SVLTE (simultaneous voice and LTE).

SVDO:

LOL... Talk about piling on! :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CoolTommy:
I've looked everywhere, where is 'Recent Orders'?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dtr145r:
Hmm. I wonder if they run on a normal prl?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
I just had an ecare chat with a Margret J ... she told me that the phone will take 3-5's when shipped and may not ship untill launch day ..... :mad::mad::mad:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stevesprivateaccount:
CapsLockKey - I stand corrected, I was pretty sure the SVDO died off, but it seams it is back. Looks like it is a little bit wonky and doesn't always allow the data connection, but I'm guessing that might have to do with Sprints towers.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kegacide:
In my 14 days with the EvoLTE the simultaneous vice/3g worked great, glad this will work with sgs3 too
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dtr145r:
Can you go to settings and let me know what your prl # is?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RawisTheGameHhH:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ilostmypistons:
Please stop :mad:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dtr145r:
This phone has the same radio technology as the evo lte. So I'm asking questions about it. Since only the evo lte so far has it.

It became the evo thread about 15 minutes ago. Are you OK with that?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
i kept pressing the on or before 21st and she kept backpedaling the statement .... I was like I bet you guys took more pre orders than you could handle and when I asked should I cancel my pre order and go pick one up in the store on the 21st she said they stores wouldnt have them until all the pre orders are fulfilled

Well, my DM number now states "Order in Process". So something has happened/changed!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
yeah emmmm not really

on your my sprint account or when you search it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
oh my transcript just came ..... hold on ill paste it :mad:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Skunk Ape1:
Then why don't I have my phone yet. The DM # said it shipped on 6-5-2012. So if this was true I would already have my phone. :D

So I will believe the CSR I talked to. Who told me that the DM# was worthless.

_______________

Just Flash It !!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] steelfatboy1:
From the sprint forum:

"I just got off the phone with Sprint and they are adamant that the only reason it says backordered is because the order is older than 10 days and has not shipped so their system recognizes it as a "backorder".
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] yahknow1:
It used to read like everyone else...something like "shipped/activated blah, blah,blah". Now it reads order in progress and they have an amount they are going to charge me next to it...they haven't charged yet though?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jahspree:
Yea tell me about it. Giving this up for the gs3, very disappointed with this device. Just waiting on the word from best buy
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] steelfatboy1:
Also from GalaxyGirlS3 on the sprint forum:

so i just got off the phone with a sprint rep she was very knowledgeable she said sprint warehouse has all of the pre order phones and the reason why it says backorder cause they are waiting for them to get there tracking numbers and be shipped out but i repeat SPRINT WAREHOUSE HAS THE PHONES INSTOCK... she said they should be here on or before thursday.. thats my latest info hope this helps

This should fan the flames a bit...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
thats not what PEGGY SAID!!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dtr145r:
I'm asking around. If I Can't force roaming and get 3g this phone is pointless to me.

Try using a smart phone with a ping of 1200+ ms and a dl speed of 35 kbps

Doesn't work very well....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Trina9:
No, that's South Carolina.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] steelfatboy1:
I'll just have to assume Peggy is a liar. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mercado79:
Roaming agreements only cover 1x...ever (or at least until LTE roaming agreements start cropping up).

As for force roaming, that was removed from Sprint phones years ago. Your best bet is buying the Roam Control app (works on my Nexus S 4G):

3-5 days shipping? she sounds like she knows what she is talking about
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] worldwidepmp:
I pre ordered in store thru BB, but I saw Wirefly has it for $179.00. Has anybody ordered from WF while also using Bank of America's Add It Up? I ordered my Og Epic thru WF and the process was smooth.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Swayyy:
Obviously none of the Sprint rep's have a clue what they are talking about. As long as I get it by the 21st I am happy... lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jerrybritt:
Peggy also is a computer script chat robot just like Mike and Jessica

Notice in the transcript that you can never get a straight or confirmed answer other than stock questions. Sprint has been using this robot chat system for some time. Answers are based on key works in what you type in the chat box.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nicholaaaas:
Have you seen GalaxyGirlS3's posts? she has no idea. She probably bothered the rep till they just told her some crap to shup her up
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
PEGGY IS REAL!!!!!!!!

and is anyone else going between this and waiting for an FF18 leak for the epic touch :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] zanderman112:
You'll be happy once you get it no matter what lol.

To the people complaining:

Pre ordering only guarantees you a device before everyone else, not a guarantee you'll get it early.

If you pre order it, you'll still get it first, just not necessarily early.

In the end, you'll have the device. Don't freak out just because your perfectly useable smartphone that's got some wear on it can't be replaced yet.

~E.R.A.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
Margaret D.: When you pre order the phone you get the phone within 2 or 3 days from the phone launch date. It will be only available to the customer who pre order it not for other customer. They will get it after all the pre orders has been shipped.

Sprint's robots have poor grammar also ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] steelfatboy1:
Yep, I thought the same thing. Still, I figured I'd post the alternate info, keep things going.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dtr145r:
If that were true then we should have the phone today or tomorrow.. (2 or 3 days)

She's a lair
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fatboypup:
No Im reading it 2 or 3 days from the launch date aka AFTER the 21st not BEFORE :eek:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TeamERA:
I'm waiting for an update to FF18 also. Maybe the team can finish up Frankenstein before hell freezes :-(

Yeah I'm tired of scrolling past Sprint BS chat and seeing oy#'s and dm#'s. Seriously lol, the wait isn't that bad, do we really need to hound Sprint and waste more pages and time talking about it. That's what's killing me lol. If we could at least get our sub forum we could start up some talk on something else.

Trust me, I want the phone now also, but I haven't checked once if I its says shipped .

That's funny right there :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shook187:
This thread reminds me of the EVO preorder thread. Sprint said this Sprint said that, copy and paste what jessica said. At the end of the day nobody knew nothing and what ever script they had was just that, a script. Evo owners was told orders was already picked and packed, when it wasn't even true. So the moral of this story is, take whatever sprint tells you with a grain of salt. Nothing is official till a tracking number is produced and package has been scanned.
