[Galaxy Note II General] EmergencyMedic:
You make some very good points my friend. I've decided to go for the 16GB (I think) I reckon I'll be several months before the 32 comes, if ever. By then ill be looking forward to the SGNII or even IV (we never got the 64), or something else - now that other manufacturers have notice big is beautiful. Might force me to root - BUT I AIN'T SCARED lol

Agree - advertising bigger versions is a bit unfair, but its not totally untrue - they do sell it, just not here I definitely don't think the advertising standards agency will be particularly interested, for the reasons you stated. I've emailed samsung but not the ASA ;0)

Not happy, but this device, even at 16GB is as near to what I actually need (not want) as any device I've owned before - and, currently, there is no competition (stylus 5+ inch phones)
[Galaxy Note II General] skip24ftlb:
Samsung are clearly advertising the note 2 with 3 memory sizes. That is wrong. Hence why the asa are investigating our complaints. its not factually correct. there is one memory size available only on the uk market. Its an advert in the uk and comes under uk advertising legislation.

Look at this Youtube video then decide!!!!!!!

I suggest you watch this video. If you correct you can't move your apps to the External SD card so you might want to wait for the larger capacity Note 2.

[Galaxy Note II General] Markel Risby:
I'll agree, Why would any company make a product that the consumer exactly wants. They always leave a little lusting for more. So with that said I guess I'll bit the bullet and buy the 16gb, Even though I would like to have the 32 or 64gb. Just like the lumina 920 why would they not include a sd card slot. The reason is because of future sales.
[Galaxy Note II General] EmptyArea:
Now that there is an external to internal Switch mod the benefits of waiting for the larger versions is reduced.
[Galaxy Note II General] Beards:
Could you expand on that comment please?
[Galaxy Note II General] EmptyArea:
You need to root, then theres a mod. The process, I think, is untested on the n7105 but I'll test it later.

Well the mod works on n7105. So thats the uk covered. Of cause not everyone wants to root, flash custom recovery and custom kernel.

I'm fine with the 16GB if and when the 128GB micro SD cards come out.

i really don't quite understand why are most poeple are even buying the 16 Gig model... c'mon its 2012, lol why you guys that easy to be satisfactory? :( and yes, i'm kinda pissed, that these ppl don't just release the goddamn 64GB version over here :mad:
[Galaxy Note II General] EmptyArea:
I bought it because I was confident that it wouldn't matter and i was right. See earlier posts.
[Galaxy Note II General] Rhino-2-Horny:
me im holding out for 32gb version in uk but at least if it doesnt appear im gonna keep my options open for others brands as theres a lot of good stuff comming in the next couple months.

but i wish samsung had released 32gb model from launch as 16gb doesnt cut it these days (should be 11gb after o/s :P )

on a positive at least samsung listened to customers concerns regarding bigger and longer lasting battery :) :good:
[Galaxy Note II General] EmergencyMedic:
Well, l gave up and am giving the 16GB version a try and l am pleasantly surprised by the amount of stuff l can fit on it! I think I'll be ok with this.

What an awesome device !

[Galaxy Note II General] dt33:
I was going to get 32GB, but dont wanna wait and get dissapointed as Samsung did with Note 1. On Note 1 32GB released on limit countrys only and never came to mine country. Dont talk about 64GB that never showed up in Europe. Also Samsung already said, they will be focus on 32GB production and not 64GB, that will get a "limit". Before 32GB/64GB get out and Im sure Note 3 will release already.
[Galaxy Note II General] skip24ftlb:
Well i took my upgrade ang got the note 2 lte variant. i cannot risk using it till my get protector comes tho. Bugger. Too slippy. it will end up on the floor of the truck the first bend i go round.....

Has the 64GB S3 come out? What are the sales like?
[Galaxy Note II General] RumCoffee:
Samsung Marketing and Note 2 above 16GB

The Galaxy Note 2 will be the 1st Samsung Device that I own...

I have taken a good look at their marketing on the GS3. Note the process... From what I recall, as I didn't pay any attention to the Galaxy anything, despite their power as devices... touch screen only with no other form of input doesn't do it for me, and I refuse to give up my keyboard slider device.

However i saw the NOTE 2 and it looks like it has the potential with the S-pen to be functional and I've already eyed a couple of Bluetooth keyboards for it and a case that'll hold both if possible.

Samsung if they released the GS3 in May, or maybe it was early June? Came out with the 32GB version seems like 3 months later... Around August it seems... Now they're slowly releasing 64gb version about 6 months later... October-November...

I think they're a bit 'stupid' to allow Apple to release the Mini thingy whatever it is, in higher memory specs just before Xmas and they not at least release the Note 2 in a 32GB format but don't know if releasing end of November & Early December will quite fit into their silly marketing strategy.

as someone here already said, it's all just marketing and creating demand coz people use a lot of contracts and they 'want' a NOTE 2 and they'll "settle" for a NOTE 2 with 16GB.

I am find with my Xperia keyboard devices and I will wait the 3 month period to see what Samsung will do. I have to devices already but have an idea that the NOTE 2 can be very productive in my scenario of usage. I'd love to get one but I won't settle for anything less than 32GB.

64GB is what I want but I can live with 32GB especially as 'eventually' 128GB SD-cards will come out.

I am not a techy expert but I agree with someone else who wrote here. In a word... SURE it'll work. I've no doubt.

I used to use Nokia before they became MicroNookie! Also until Android got to good to ignore and enabled me to do the same thing and more and usually more quickly. (Provided I've at least a physical keyboard as with my Xperia Pro & Mini Pro.)

They always used to say, takes Micro SD card of blah blah blah size, but it's like someone said, at the time of release, that's the SIZE commonly available. Unless they purposely make the hardware limited, then it's for lack of a better term a kind of card reader and if it can read the card... or in this case the kernel can. Then 128GB plus whatever you've got... 16 or 32 or 64 for those of you who want to wait until the release the GS4 with it's rumored 3gb of RAM... ;)

So, my guess for 32GB, maybe, just maybe before Xmas but like late late November or Early December. Or else we won't see 32GB Note 2 until January.

64GB? March or Aprile at the least. just look at how they've done the Galaxy S3. I expect the same ploy.
[Galaxy Note II General] skibumza:
I just received a reply from the ASA saying they are taking no further action as Samsung has changed the Note 2 web page to say it is only available in 16gb.

I checked the web page and sure enough, it is only listing it as having 16gb now.

Samsung, you're a bunch of useless <insert bad word here>.
[Galaxy Note II General] Beards:
Oh Bloody Eck!
[Galaxy Note II General] Rhino-2-Horny:
i too had a simular letter from them and have veiwed my sadness on the uk samsung face book website.

cannot beleive they are doing this..you would think they would want your money but no ... :(
[Galaxy Note II General] foxmeister:
Samsung know which devices will sell the most, and that is going to be the 16GB version. The simple facts of the matter are that most SIII/N2 users are not going to install huge numbers of large apps (i.e. games) and will store media on the MicroSD.

Personally, I think the age of the 16GB phone should be over, and they should all ship with at least 32GB and a MicroSD slot but looking at the Nexus 4, Google clearly don't agree! ;)

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Note II General] Rhino-2-Horny:
i heard a rumour a while back that the reason some companies like htc dont include card storage slots and higher memory is due to google wanting them to push for cloud storage instead of external storage?

maybe this is why samsung is skimping?

16gb plus cloud storage good enough for casual users?

if they did this for hardrives and other tech hardware they would only have one model/size and bring another 6-8 months later :D

the tech world would slow down vastly if everyone took that stance :P
[Galaxy Note II General] skip24ftlb:
But our point has been won. they have changed the advert and now there is clarity.

Only available in 16gb.

Well then, suck my ****, samsung :mad:
[Galaxy Note II General] vizographic:
I too am disappointed by samsungs crayfishing on the gnote ll's 32/64gb versions.

Instead of nursing my misery, I concocted the following fictional scenario for entertainment purposes.

Samsung scuttled the higher memory versions in an under the table deal with the various telecoms. This is how it would work.

Samsung gets an accelerated....close to simultaneous world wide release (remarkable for an android phone) of the new note ll. Even better they get to steal some of their rival fruit company's luster. To sweeten the deal, Samsung dangles their newest data consuming phablet with the smaller internal memory. The telecoms get a phone that is potentially more data hungry. They rush to expedite its release. Mmmm, lots of future profits!

But wait, the story doesn't end here.

We know that Samsung is gearing up to produce the 128gb micro sd. That and Samsung is one of the few manufacturers to to provide an sd slot allows them to sell us this greater capacity and still honor the hypothetical deal. Mmmmmm lots of future profits!

So, my story ends on this consumers note... we get to store our music/movies/audio books/podcast...etc and thumb our noses at the greedy hated telecoms, and our initial disgruntlement with Samsung becomes unbridled glee.

See, a happy ending!

I'm not claiming that any of the above is true it is just a story I fabricated from the recent turn of events.

Yo dudes,

I've read this entire thread.. I'm in the same position.. WHY THE HELL WOULD SAMSUNG CRIPPLE A DEVICE AS GOOD AS THIS with a pissweak storage size. Its mind boggling.

Do you guys think I should just get this thing now or wait till next yeah and see what happens? I wouldn't want to wait more than 2 months, and TBH I want a new toy to play with asap.
[Galaxy Note II General] skewz:
Massive post dude!

Well ill wait it out a bit longer then. Its meant to be launching here in Australia soon. I too hate the idea of being limited, but the annoying thing with being forced to use MicroSD as your primary storage would be 1) if you lose your phone people can easily steal your data and 2) im guessing the performance of using MicroSD is far less than internal memory r/w?

[Galaxy Note II General] Rhino-2-Horny:
i have contacted samsung uk through their uk facebook forum and the reply is they have no plans on releasing anything other than 16gb at this time and the rep called george suggested end of jan which also looking and recent news articles lines up with the plans to bring out 3 new colours around jan/feb.

not what you wanted to hear sadly but im too holding out for 32 or 64gb variant but even then by the time they come out something else (next best thing :) ) could be out :D

Hello,

My situation:

I was playing around with the phone, doing normal things, restarted it, but now it is stuck on boot animation (left for an hour, still on boot animation).

What i dont understand, is why this happened?.. I didnt change anything, apart from installing couple of games and force closing several apps since the last restart, but that shouldn't affect it, should it?

Is there any way of turning my Galaxy S on, so that I could at least save my contacts and then i could do a reflash...

I could do it now (recovery and download all works), but i dont want to loose my contacts...

Any help is appreciated,

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
First powerdown, pull out Battery, SIM CARD, and EXT.SD card, press power button for a minute, than powerup without SIM and Ext.SD Card...make sure you have more than 50% battery charge before you attempt any sort of flashing.

This alone could your problem
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phemark:
Thanks for your answer xsenman, however doing what you suggested didnt work, phone still on boot animation...

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfpack15:
Hey guys,

I'm having some issues with mounting while I'm in the recovery. In fact, the computer (win7) won't even recognize that the phone is connected via USB. The device manager just shows "SAMSUNG_Android_SPH-L710" with a yellow exclamation mark. Whenever I connect the phone in recovery to the computer, it tells me driver installation was unsuccessful. I searched around before posting and made sure of few things.

1. Using the Samsung USB Cable.

2. Installing the Sprint_L710_GSIII_Samsung_USB_Driver_v1_4_6_0.exe found on Samsung's website.

3. I reinstalled the driver after it didn't work the first time.

I did read that I need adb drivers to get my computer to recognize my phone while in recovery mode. Is that true? If so, can someone please provide me the link to those drivers. I googled it but want to make sure I install the right version and don't end up bricking it.

Is anything else can be the issue here? Also, is mounting in recovery supported in latest CWM/TWRP?

I'm stock rooted with the LI3 update and trying to wipe everything clean before trying out Paranoid Android ROM. I haven't wiped anything yet since I want to make sure after I wipe my external/internal SD Card, I can place ROM files in the storage. Please let me know and any help is appreciated.

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MobDad:
Not sure why you are trying to access your computer from recovery mode.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mnhertz26:
1) Because a lot of root instructions tell you to

2) Because it's really annoying to reboot the phone, load a file, reboot to recovery and flash

I root devices part time and use that feature pretty often

It is hit or miss and I don't know why. Sometimes it mounts for me, sometimes it doesn't.

Save yourself a ton of time and heart ache. You shouldn't lose and internal or external memory when you flash a rom on the SGS3. When you wipe, it only wipes your system and data which is on a separate system storage. I have read some people report a flash wiped their internal storage, but certainly not the external.

Btw.. Are you selecting "mount usb storage"?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfpack15:
Thanks guys for replying. So I finally got it working. After the first reinstall of the drivers, it still wasn't working. I was getting frustrated so I was like let me reinstall one more time. Give it a one more try. This time, I have no idea what changed but it started mounting. It still shows up in device manager with yellow exclamation mark. However, when I click Mount USB Storage in TWRP, it mounts. It does seem random in a sense that it works sometimes and doesn't other times.
