[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phila83:
I have a weird problem where the power and volume buttons don't work when the screen is locked. I know it is not a hardware issue because I had this problem for a couple days, then the power button started working again perfect the next day and now its back to not working. When the screen is unlocked, the volume keys work perfect and controls volume as it normally would. I downloaded some apps to enable the volume keys to work as an unlock button, but they fail to work.

As a last resort, I was going to flash a new rom to see if it would help, however when I boot into recovery mode, the volume keys don't work and i cant move up and down through the options. In addition, I've noticed that when I do a battery pull and put the battery back in, the phone automatically boots up as if the power button was held down.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
Your power button is failing. It is a hardware issue. Send it for repair.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phila83:
Do you have an idea of why the volume buttons aren't working though as an unlock button with apps tho? I also question whether it is a hardware problem because this has happened in the past before and then suddenly the power button works again perfect for months. It is just very annoying for me to sit here and hope for it to start working again.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] polobunny:
It's a known issue that when the power button stay stuck the other buttons don't work. It sucks, but that's what it is. Nexus S always had this power button problem and usually you can send it to samsung to get it fixed. Some people have tried to fix it themselves without too much luck...

You can always use the kernel listed before (eternity) which I think would be compatible with every cid because it's not sense 4.5/4+ or jelly bean related

yeah, it's compatible but there are a lot of issue relatet to the "not fully compatible" kernel ( No SD, no GPS etc etc ) .

Can't wait to upgrade soon.

EDIT: Was told by a T-Mobile rep that it will be released tomorrow. No official word on pricing yet though
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rans0m00:
AT&T please quit delaying. I want a new toy!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] exparanoia:
Is that one LTE enabled? What bands is it using if so?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Layd Dly:
Cant wait, finally due for an upgrade to my MT4G. Perfect timing for release.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] laztpn0i:
The lady and I are looking forward to upgrade from our MT4Gs this month also. And I'm also hoping it will officially be future proofed with LTE.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] achusaysblessyou:
Yes it will have lte, T-Mobile and Samsung have said so and the specs on the page have also said so, and this page was uploaded yesterday actually. Yet to get a concrete release date though
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] nemesis93:
Hopefully soon within a week or two we'll get a release date?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] achusaysblessyou:
From the various announcement/rumors I listed here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32952815&postcount=5

I would expect it to officially release next week as opposed to an announcement of release date. My biggest evidence is the internal memo to Tmo stores saying its gonna release on the 24th, but it is the same day as the Samsung announcement so possibly the 25th like sprint.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] techn0crat:
It cannot have LTE because T-Mobile does not have LTE.

Their "4G" is HSPA+ --- which the Note II *will* have-

There is nothing on the spec page about the Galaxy Note II for T-Mo having LTE.

Also, the "Launch Date" is October 24th for T-Mo
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] slybarman:
It can and does have an LTE radio in addition to the HSPA+ radio. It obviously won't be activated until T-mobile gets its LTE network up and running.

http://www.tmonews.com/2012/09/t-mo...s-through-the-fcc-is-future-proofed-with-lte/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] achusaysblessyou:
1) Yes, we know T-Mobile doesn't have a LTE network yet, but they will and the galaxy note 2 is supposed to support that network when it comes out (mid 2013)

2) I wouldn't trust the specs page much... yesterday the gray one was missing the 1900mhz band while the white one listed it. And many sources have said it does come with LTE support.

3) have you any sources? Outside of T-Mobile stating that its released on the 24th, its still a rumor (the internal document listing the 24th is a week and a half old, who knows if that's still valid)

Thus rendering your post almost useless...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] laztpn0i:
Correct me if I'm wrong. But I have not seen any OFFICIAL word that it will have LTE. I have seen the leaked bands of the device from the FCC. BUT! until Tmobile or Samsung officially announce it. I won't believe it till I see or hear it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] slybarman:
T-mobile has no real incentive to promote the fact that it is compatible with a network it doesn't have yet.

Demo devices on way to store... need to call my store to figure out when
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] da_nyce1:
This is great new! I'll be stalking my local T Mobile store. Thanks for posting.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] achusaysblessyou:
No prob :p although this forum needs a wiki post right under the OP so that we can put all this information there (without having the OP update the OP).

I just called my local T-Mobile store asking if they knew when the new phone would come in and the rep told me that she too was waiting for it and that they are being sent a demo unit, due to arrive in the next few days and should have the phone in stores within the next 2 weeks. She wouldn't get more specific though :(... I have read on the tmonews article discussion that some places have a "notify" list if you're interested
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] da_nyce1:
Yeah I saw that also. Funny how fast those "notify" lists are growing. If your local T-Mo rep said phones would be in stores within 2 weeks, and it's true, that encouraging to hear instead of Nov 15th release date.

I have about 3 stores within 15 min drive. I will be visiting all of them tomorrow.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] achusaysblessyou:
I personally think it'll be out sometime next week, but if I'm wrong at least before Nov 2nd.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] slybarman:
The only thing keeping me from thinking next week is the press event t-mobile is having on the 29th.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] achusaysblessyou:
Hey guys possible leaked pricing from T-Mobile:

http://www.tmonews.com/2012/10/rumo...image/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook

Looks to be $419 w/ $50 Rebate with Classic plan and $299 down for Value plan (+ $20 a month for $20)

I don't see any "Retail" pricing as it still says $699 price on Value Plan.

Walmart seems to have it at $299 though (from an earlier leak)

I'm thinking that's for the WP8 device announcement, I hope they don't release the note II then...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] csmits:
379USD. Damn that's again more then the competitors :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] graveghoul:
Im relatively new to Tmo. Have they charged that high of prices where every other carrier priced at a different rate before?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] MattMJB0188:
T-Mobile is tempting, I must admit. However, their 3G sucked when I had them last year. The 4G tower was in site, yet my phone wood switch back to Edge while inside. I didn't find it very consistent. I know they are reframing but it's extremely spotty right now.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] csmits:
I am new to them too, but according to what I read on t-mobile blogs, Yes. They have the tendency to be more expensive with their phones then the competition (and to work with mail in rebates)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] whatsitsnamenow:
Way too pricey considering you can get an unlocked Note 2 for $650 new. I would just spend the extra $250 or so and avoid a T-mobile contract altogether. Granted they are missing AWS frequency but these are the phones are considered the norm. Its T-mobile phones that are the odd one out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] da_nyce1:
The T-Mobile phones are supposed to be future proofed for their new LTE network that is supposed to be rolled out by 2013. If deciding to buy unlocked international version to avoid contract, I'd rather just spend the additional $50 and buy from T-Mobile outright and ensure that it's ready for their future network when it's available.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] whatsitsnamenow:
I think you mean to say starting to roll out in 2013, not roll out by 2013. It may be years before it becomes widespread and usable. A few generations of phones LTE or otherwise would have come and gone by then.

But you do have a point that spending $50 extra will net a phone that is more friendly for t-mobile frequencies.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] achusaysblessyou:
Yep, but their month to month is cheaper (usually)... even if it's $80 more than their competitors, if you save just $10 a month over the life of the contract (24 months) you're still saving $240 - $80 = $160...

Yep, with the Galaxy S3. Although you NEED to look around for deals, Walmart might have theirs at $300 and check out Costco, Amazon or even your local Authorized T-Mobile 3rd Party store (that's what I used to use for my Classic Plans, but now on Value plan), they should all have the Note II's contract price lower than that of T-Mobile. If you want to save money, you have to do some work...

Yep, but they're cheaper month to month... which may add up to an appreciable sum over 24 months. And I live/work/visit Southern California, Seattle and SF Bay Area, so... for me I'm never in a place without signal... (4G everywhere... where I live)

True... but hey, I'm fine with HSPA+ 42mbps :) Considering that most people's home internet rarely goes past 6mbps... I don't really care for internet faster than 10mbps...

Oh and at least T-Mobile has truly unlimited data... why do you need 30+ mbps on LTE if you're stuck to 2GB a month?

Not to mention, you'll actually have wifi calling, and better resale value since you'll have LTE capabilities...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] SchusterIX:
I'm in a similar boat. I'd really like to switch to T-mobile, specifically for wifi calling. But, at least from the maps i've seen, their data coverage is very, very poor.Seems that once you're out of a city, you're on 2g.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] witeboy07:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] paul2834:
I did a quick search of the manual and I didn't see anything about multi-window. Looks like we're not going to have it at launch. Sadly I also don't see any mention of FM radio. LTE isn't mentioned either, but that's fair considering T-Mobile doesn't have it up yet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] 0xf00d:
Just played with one today in Salt Lake City at T-Mobile

And for the life of me I couldn't figure out how to make the multitasking bar pop out. I saw a bunch of videos, all just said hold the back button down...but this didn't work. I dug through all the options and couldn't find anything related to the feature. The firmware had a 'J' in it, which should be the one with the multitasking bar, I think.

Any thoughts?

Overall it was great though, not much bigger than my S2 (albeit with a D3O case on it.) I'm assuming if the multitasking feature isn't there at launch it will be shortly thereafter; it does seem like a weird omission though.

I wish they would just release the info so we would know. Is there going to be midnight releases?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] loo432:
I doubt there will midnight release for phones since the connection center closes at 9pm. They close at 9 because if there is a problem with the contract, or the phone sale there is no way to call the carriers for a trouble ticket.

That and all of the cellphones that come in for post paid carriers come in during the day through DSD, not on the nightly freight. Some of the prepaid phones come in on the truck, but even that is a 50/50 shot.

If you see, it says $649.99 for the Monthly4G plans - which are T-Mobile's pre-paid (month to month) meaning, this thing's retail price will be $649.99 if this is true... looks official, so... who knows.

hey, just got one from my local t-mobile store. They only had 3 (all grey). Was not up for upgrade, so just paid the full retail. They did not do difficult. However, I have read that each store can make their own policy on this. Some will only sell to new customers or people who add a line.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mike2518:
Just came back from my store, it was a company store, not an authorized retailer. Surprisingly, I was the first one to get it, and they had both grey and white available. I got the grey one, no pressurization or anything, just bought the phone outright. Can't wait to fire it up after work. :)
