I never said I do not care about users. What I said was that if they were leaving, I would not prevent them from doing so. The MoDaCo comment that was made on this thread was intended specifically as a threat towards xda staff that if we did not comply by allowing the thread to exist, that the discussion and users would be taken to another forum. I am sorry if it came out as me not caring, but quite frankly I do not like to be threatened by anyone.

As I said, we will talk this internally with the rest of the team. I am pretty sure I know what the outcome will be, but we need to have everyone on the same page. I will likely post our final decision in here soon. In the meantime, we shall no longer discuss this for the time being.

That is not why I am banning you. I specifically said TWICE to cut it out as we were going to discuss it with the rest of the moderation team. Yet you went ahead, in all your infinite wisdom, and decided to post that. And YES, driving traffic to off-site IS against the rules.....
[Galaxy Note II General] stoney73:
I know how to use the search function just fine thanks.

Thanks for adding more unnecessary steps to actually finding anything of use.

Also its nice to see that Clove get to have their own availability thread....great consistency.
[Galaxy Note II General] egzthunder1:
I am sorry, but what part of "we are discussing this at the moment and will let you know shortly. Stop it with this topic for now." was not clear?

Also, what disregard to what users? Are you talking about the one calling us racists without basis or the one who tried to drive traffic elsewhere even after I said "stop it" in two different instances?

Middle East (Bahrain)

This phone is now available here in Bahrain. Cost is around BHD 360.000 ($950.00) with 2GB data for next 1-1/2 year. The value of data plan is around BHD 90.000 only. Net value of phone BHD 270.000 ($ 720.00) which can be unlocked for free.

Sorry guys, I don't know how much is shipping from here to US. Available in white and gray only.
[Galaxy Note II General] vsankarn:
So yeah as some of you might have gathered GN2 is available in India :p

I got mine yesterday and she is still in the middle of her first 8 hour charging cycle. Still unable to play around with her a lot. Quick first impressions :

1.No multi windows yet. The firmware out of the box is xxlaie.. So guess will have to wait for that update.

2.I have not loaded anything on the phone except for all the apps that install by themselves. So it is still very early days.. But everything seems just so much more smoother. Guess the quad core and the extra ram are indeed pulling their weight effectively.

3. Talking of weight.. GN2 feels a tad lighter than GN. Slightly taller and definitely thinner as well.

Overall.. loving it :) hopefully will get time to play around with it a lot more today

And just one more thing. For all Indian users of the GN looking to switch to GN2..You need a micro sim.. So please plan accordingly if you are already not aware.

it 16GB version only

Just curious why you would be looking for a 32GB when you can go upto 64GB memory card for a lot cheaper with the 16GB...:D

i dont want memorycard i need a 32gb or 64 gb internal memory
[Galaxy Note II General] raveky:
From what i can recall the 32GB of Note 1 or 32GB of S3 never came to India at least officially, so i guess it might be a long shot to get a 32GB Note 2.

UK titanium grey availability

Having searched the Midlands (UK) and scoured the Internet I have found that the titanium grey model is not going to be available in the UK until 15th October.

Rang all of the suppliers - Carphone Warehouse etc etc and nobody could tell me when they'd be having them. Found out from Clove that there is a delay on the grey ones from Samsung until 15th October.

Anyone heard similar/different??

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note II General] zabaknilesh:
Friend, Galaxy note 2 does not have apps to sd so we are limited to install only 10 GB (usable internal memory) of application which by my standards is very less and hence we do need 32 GB version.

I know there are custom hacks and custom roms and i am sure that this degrades the performance.
[Galaxy Note II General] snakkarike:
yeah thats why i was asking about 32gb version
[Galaxy Note II General] sudeepm:

Hi guys, i just bought it in mumbai from my regular dealer in Crawford Market in exchange for my note one.

note2 is available in austria in small quantities!

got mine from cyberport at EUR 601.- two days ago (04.10.2012), thus only the 16GB version.

unlucky as i am, i have two display faults: a very small dust particle between the glass and the amoled,

will wait until the 64GB model is available and then grab one of these!

[Galaxy Note II General] EmptyArea:
What a ridiculous idea, xda has a terrible search facility, and the app is even worse. No useful information will be extractable from this thread. National threads make much more sense. Inclusiveness is important, but over functionality and practicality I think not. If there are 50 places in each region that sell the product each with 3 or more options that is enough information to track in a thread, whereas multiplying that by 30 regions is frankly idiotic. Just wait for 7105 prices to emerge too.

As a tip to those in the EU, you will often find places like Germany have slightly lower prices. Its worth a look at other nation's Amazon sites. Unfortunately postage and the loss of a physical reseller stores to return faulty products does often negate the price difference.

Now note2 was showing available in flipkart but the delivery will be done in 6-8 business days. I don't know why its that much late.

Infibeam.com shows its in stock and will ship in 24 hrs, so who want to grab it from online better choose infibeam. Its a good deal with free emi for 3 mnths and 10 % off.
