Good to see similar faces here!:)

Chicago is getting on Jun 28. & that means no sleep on Jun 27.:victory:
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] bluemax189:
i work at a corp store. can verify no store in the dc/md area have no sgs3's yet..... 6/28
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Gadgetz:
My corporate store is saying the same thing, 28th.

Therein lies the problem. Preordering SHOULD put you first in line. All preorders should at least be accounted for before Joe Blow off the street can walk in and buy one.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] outz:
yeah, i think you're right. preordering is pointless if it doesnt entitle you to the phone at first availability.

i didnt preorder because i really want to see the phone first.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] J-man67:
The 28th is my Birthday and I am off work all this week. Think I am going to treat myself to a little gift!
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] entropism:
Went into one of the local "experience" stores to return the GS3; One of the giant flagship AT&T superstores that basically get everything first. They never even laid eyes on the GS3 in person, I had almost every rep there tearing the box open to play with the phone. Some were theorizing the 28th, others the 1st since "AT&T always releases on a Sunday". So we'll see.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Zephyr17:
I live outside of syracuse NY and the 3 stores i called all refused to give me a date 28th or otherwise
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Gadgetz:
I like how AT&T got the phone into as many hands as possible by 6.21.12 for those who preordered, that's how it should be even though the actual launch got pushed back a week. That's what I expected when I preordered, lesson learned!

Well bro, it's better than being lied to and given false hope
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Zephyr17:
yeah wasnt complaining just mentioning that they wouldnt even say the 28th like other people were getting from stores
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Gadgetz:
I know, just put it into perspective for ya. Some stores are telling is false info and getting our hopes up only to be shot down.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] 20blks:
May I ask why you returned the phone?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] schrutebucks:
Called a store in Arlington, TX and they said the 28th.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] faulkton:
yesterday the local corp store told me next sunday. She said they were launching some xperia phone today but the s3 wouldnt be until next week.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Draelith:
Went in yesterday to the store to pickup a case. Rep I talked to told me they had the phones in, but couldn't put them out for sale yet. Still walked away with my case (which he pulled from the back since they weren't on display).
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] destroyerbmx:
I would imagine some store have it in stock in the back and some dont. They maybe are waiting until the 28th when every store should have some level of stock to launch it in store an not waiting until Sunday the 1st to get it out on the market because its overdue.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] entropism:
I didn't. AT&T screwed up my order and sent me 2 by mistake. I went to return one to get my upgrade reversed, but they told me to keep it and sell it privately, since my upgrade wasn't used.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Gadgetz:
Score!
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] 20blks:
Nice. Good to hear a customer getting the better end of a deal.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] entropism:
you have NO idea really... AT&T has been bending me over since last August when I signed up, but their latest screw ups just tipped everything in my favor. I honestly couldn't be happier right now. (Free GS3, about $450 in credits, and a second GS3 I can sell outright... paid $214 for, with no upgrade used)
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] F1reEng1neRed:
I definitely do not put a lot of faith in AT&T and unless I got the government discount I get with them, there's no way I would be with them now, but I appreciate how they did everything they could to get the pre-orders out in the face of a supply shortage. I'm in Hawaii and they overnighted it on the 21st and I had it on 22nd (Friday), just in time for the weekend.

I'm sure that those who pre-ordered as well and didn't get theirs would disagree, but if the shortage is because of manufacturing, not much they can do about it.

---------- Post added at 01:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:58 PM ----------

Holy crap. That's awesome. I can't believe they just told to you keep the phone. You could easily sell that for $600 or more right now on ebay.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] SSJ_Gomike:
My source states that a limited amount of stores in 29 select markets will have the SGSIII on Monday the 25.... It will then begin to roll out to other locations starting on the 28th with most getting them within a week after.

Sent from my Galaxy S II - I777
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Gadgetz:
Damn man you got taken care of too! I preordered on the 5th and still nothing. Care to guess where from?

This sounds like T-Mobile's launch plan....any idea what markets they are?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] cardinalryan:
You are confused with the T-Mobile roll out. FWIW, my local AT&T store says they will have them in stock tomorrow, but I'm not holding my breath.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] cardinalryan:
Well, called my AT&T Store this morning and they now say June 28th.

I guess, deep down, I knew they wouldn't have it today, but the amount of misinformation that is being passed along by clueless AT&T reps and BBY reps is mind boggling.

It shouldn't be this hard to shoot straight with your customers.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] CHiSEEN:
So I picked mine up from the att store i pre-ordered from yesterday on the 24th. It was shipped on the 22nd from Fort Worth, TX and arrived on the 23rd in Queens, NY. I was speaking to the att rep for quite a while while getting my phone all set up and she told me they are all stocked up for the 6/28 release date, but no one not even the employees can peek at them yet and so they were pretty excited to be able to touch one and try it out. If anyone in the NYC area is looking for a release date purchase this branch will have them in stock. They're also fully stocked on accessories.

i just called my local store where i got my htc vivid 2weeks ago .the manager lied to me ,i asked him if he can save me a galaxy s3 when its release and he said yes this was 2 weeks ago .now hes saying he cannot sell me the phone because it for new customers only .im so pissed off . now i have to go to corporate store on the 28 hoping they got some left after i get off work at 5pm which i doubt >:(

do u guys know if i can do something else?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] aeakin:
I just got off the phone with my local ATT corporate store and they said the launch date will be the 28th! He doesn't know how many they will have in stock, but I'm not too worried because one of the store reps is going to pull one of each color apart for me....that, and I'll be there waiting for them to open! :D They have accessories for the GS3 in stock now and are able to sell them. This is promising!
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] bigb252:
If you only bought it 2 weeks ago then you can return and exchange your Vivid for the s3. Make sure you have everything that came with the phone. If they still refuse, simply return the phone (with receipts) and go to a different store.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] bgaccord:
Thanks. Do.u know if I have to pay restocking fee and return sim card
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] extreme11191986:
I ordered mine over the phone on the 20th and got it in the mail on the 23rd, saturday morning. I was very surprised because they never sent me a tracking number and the initial email said it would ship by the 28th. Best phone I ever had.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] aeakin:
Unless the device is defective, they would require you to pay a restocking fee AFAIK.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] jdhommert:
target order here, still not shipped. I guess they are waiting to ship until the 28th

i was hoping to get the phone this week:(
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] macdroid01:
I just went to an AT&T corporate store, they said they will not have them on display or sale until June 28th...
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] paleman27:
Same here 28th. A week more....whatever...If we hold out for 6 month we could probably get it for .99 cents... and free when the SG4 comes out...

Sorry guys, I just lost the hype...
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] bgaccord:
ok im returning tomorrow
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] soul4rent:
pre ordered one from a corporate store saturday 6/23. it shipped today should be here tomorrow 6/26
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] ElCamino:
So is it really taking 10 business days if you order SG III today? Local AT&T store is telling me 10 days, but some are reporting almost next it ships.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] entropism:
I got my order email saying "up to" 10 business days, but I seriously doubt it. I'll check tomorrow to get a better idea.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] ElCamino:
Keep us informed, would like to see if it ships before the 10 days. If so, I will place order tomorrow and hopefully get by Friday.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] posthold:
I ordered one on last Friday and got the email saying "up to" 10 business days. Monday night I got shipping conformation. This was in Dallas through Business Premier.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] g33k3r:
I ordered mine today and it already says processing. Wonder if it will ship soon.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] outz:
went by a local corp store today... the guy of course said he thinks its going to be thursday, but then another employee overheard us and said he thinks it has been delayed.

shrug
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] bustabo:
I ordered my phone from a corporate store this last Friday. Got it today. Went to the store and they has crappy accessories so I went to sprint and got some nicer cases and full front and back zag protection
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] bustabo:
And they should have the phone stock this Thursday
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Gadgetz:
I feel you...I would say I've lost it too but I'd be lying, I could do without the incredible ignorance and misinformation a la Amazon's Showroom and AT&T but I want this phone as badly today as I did on the 5th when I preordered it.

The 28th seems to be the day, have heard that date form lots of people, lots of places. I hope it turns out to be true
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] entropism:
Sorry I wasn't paying better attention... My phone shipped out today, I have a white one on the way to my door by 3 tomorrow.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] g33k3r:
Ordered a white one today and have tracking and delivery tomorrow. Now that's service!
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Arcadia310:
Did you order online?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Arcadia310:
Everyone who ordered this week and already has shipment, did you order in store or on line? What was the estimated shipping time when you ordered?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] ahfu25:
I dialed 611 spoke to a CSR. Ordered a white one around 2:45pm and got tracking info at around 9:30 for tomorrow at 3pm. I'll believe it when I have it in my hands though.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] destroyerbmx:
My manager told me the 21st back before they opened up the pre-orders and he was dead on, except for the delay. He then told me the 28th right when everything was hectic so that all adds up to a good story. He is into phones too and I suspect he asks questions unlike most treating it like a job and just doing. Got my credit card aimed on the 28th and I am going to swipe it at ATT regardless Galaxy S3 or not, I am buying it even if they dont have it. Make me a paper phone and write Galaxy SIII on it with a dual caramello core, Cortex Caramel.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] g33k3r:
I order online and within 4 hours had a tracking number.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Arcadia310:
I called and they said it's not even in their system to order. They told me this when I tried 3 days ago as well.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] ElCamino:
LOL... That is great news and seems that now the 28th will be the day. Was looking at Wal-Mart site and shows shipping the 28th.

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] ElCamino:
Looks like they have changed website and now has "Please visit your local store to see if this item is in stock" This is a good sign, more likely it will be in stores tomorrow.

Radio Shack as of yesterday, was showing shipping June 28.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Arcadia310:
I just ordered one at an AT&T store but there wasn't an option for over night shipping. Only standard freight. Is this what you guys saw as well?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] verks:
Try calling in and requesting overnight shipping.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] jonx15:

Still no galaxy s3...

Pre ordered mine on the 26th in store. I called 2 stores in the North Charleston area and they couldn't tell when the phone shipped or when they would have it. The guy said it was coming straight from Samsung

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] rizzo269:
No stores in southeast Michigan have them right now. They have no idea when they will get them. I ordered online today and it went from backordered to processing so hopefully it ships soon.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] liquid blue:
I stopped by a BB Mobile and they had none. Asked anyway even though I checked online. Then walked over to the AT&T store and she said maybe next week. So I preordered which is what I went in for anyway.

At first she said it'll ship within 10 days and then later said it will ship within 24 hours. Hopefully everything goes smoothly.

The one time I don't pre-order something so I can get it faster... sigh.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] entropism:
I'm not getting why you don't just call and order it over the phone? I got mine the first day preorders shipped out, and then I had a replacement overnighted to me the 25th, arrived the 26th. They're shipping out nearly immediately, so why wait till it's in stores?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] DannyB513:
A question for those that have received their phones, since the phone is the same across all carriers does your phone have carrier branding on it at all?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Zephyr17:
live outside syracuse NY

of 4 corp stores in area non had them in stock or any idea when theyd get them

ordered a blue one online at noon today and it had shipped out by 3
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] fmllc:
did it ship fedex or usps?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] DynamiteRave:
Yes... yes it was.. this is weird lol
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] liquid blue:
Originally I thought there would be enough to go around and that they would be available in stores same day as pre-orders would have gone out. That and I wanted to play around with a display model and compare it to the HTC One X. But based on all reviews since launch I already decided to get the Samsung anyways. :good:
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] KryptosXLayer2:
I had a friend and his wife searching around today to get rid of their awful iThings, they found ONE in Altamonte Springs, FL - rushed out to get it and she was texting me the whole trip over there, excited as crap to get the SIII.... there was a girl in front of them who pre-ordered one and changed her mind when it arrived, so they ended up walking out with TWO of them!

I pre-ordered my white one on the 7th and just got it today from Best Buy, they walked right into an AT&T store and got two blue ones!!! Couldn't believe how lucky they got....
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Gadgetz:
No GS3's at my local AT&T stores either :(

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] aimfire72:
None here in NorCal either. Went to one store and called 3 others... No one knew when they'd get them either. What a mess.

I went to the local att store today and they didn't have any shipment so I ordered online and fedex tracking says that it should be here tomorrow at 4:30

"All this knowledge is giving me a major brainer!"
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] smashcz:
I waited till 28th, still none in stores, so I ordered online (at&t) with regular shipping, and 4 hrs later it was shipped with fedex overnight, I will have it next day. So I recommend you guys doing the same, don't wait for store.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] ElCamino:
Ordered at store this morning and jut got that it shipped, but shipping via USPS. :( rep never gave us shipping choice. She did say it ship in 24 hrs. I think if they ship to your house, it ships FedEx overnight. If it ships to store, I think it ships USPS.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] yokken:
I got FedEx overnight comin tomorrow before 3. ;)

Mine hasn't updated from USPS since last night at 11pm. Does this normally happen to you guys as well?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] AndroidLonghorn:
I changed my font size down to tiny under settings>display>font size, but when I am checking my work email in the default email app, the font displaying the subject and preview still looks huge. Has anyone had any luck in changing this? Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] duckfart:
change the settings for font in email settings.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] AndroidLonghorn:
Ok, it looks like it may depend what kind of account you set up. On exchange, I see an option for text preview size. That is the closest thing I have seen to a font option. On my imap account, I have no option to change anything. Where do u see the option to change font size?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] jaypm:
second, the font size in the email app is ginormous by default and there is definitely no option available within the Exchange account settings. changing system font has no effect. the font is so huge it's almost cartoonish.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] wiser212:
That is correct. This version of the email app does not have the option. My Note and GS2 does though.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] AndroidLonghorn:
I thought I was crazy not being able to find it. I'm surprised it isn't bothering more people. I feel like I can see less information from it than on my atrix.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] morechoff:
Email Font Size

Surprised there is no way to change the email font size! I checked all the settings. Gingerbread has a font size setting in Settings.

Hopefully an update will fix it. The font is hugh now!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ddeecc:
This phone belongs to my brother and I own the Sprint account. The phone wouldn't turn on at all even on bootloader after he tried to flash a mod. It was htc dev unlocked using Regawmod. Phone was running viper rom 1.2.1. Heres where he got the mod http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1609480 he downloaded one of the mods he cannot remember which one but they're all practically the same status bar mod except they're different colors. The thread belongs in the HTC One X device forums but ive heard of others flashing mods straight from there with no problems..I'm still surprised that it bricked the phone though..since it's just a MOD regardless I would expect twrp to just say "failed" but not brick the phone..so All was good until:

1. rebooted into twrp recovery (ver 2.1.8)

2. attempted to flash elegancia mod from one x forum

3. 1st time recovery displayed "failed"

4. he tried again 2nd time..twrp once more displayed "failed"

5. seeing that nothing happened and the flash simply failed, my brother chose the reboot option from twrp.

6. phone did not reboot

7. couldn't access bootloader at all no matter how many times we tried

8. holding down power button and power+vol up/down combinations [in desperation] did not do a thing no matter how long the buttons were held

9. RUU completely failed...it would not detect the phone..windows failed to recognize the phone but instead attempted to install drivers "QHSUSB_DLOAD" I had also forgotten that the bootloader must be relocked but that couldn't happen anyways since the bootloader was never accessible in the first place

10. opening the phone and unplugging battery and reconnecting did not do a thing

11. we're stuck with a brick..no bootloader access, no recovery, not even the power led displaying signs of life...nada.

12. my only hope is for a method to actually unlock the bootloader to be developed using the same method as made famous by the EVO 3d found here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1547695 which actually BRICKs the phone by corrupting hboot when S-On,thus placing it into download/emmc mode. I assume it's in download mode since windows tried to install "QHSUSB_DLOAD" drivers but failed at that.

If anyone has a clue what I should do or knows of someone that can help then please let me know! Thanks!
