[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] YoungAceAtlanta:
Ha! I've done that before with many other devices, half of the reps never know nothing when a phone is just announced. N then you come to xda and post what they said and then another rep will say something totally different leaving you twisted and confused.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gtalum:
Ugh, not wise, IMHO. I'll be watching the new Nexus presser on the 29th, now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] planoman:
Dude, take a breath. Att has almost 4 times the customers that TMO has. If they tried to rush it before they had enough stock etc you would flame them for that.

Big dog is right. They need a lot more phones and have more store etc. Perfectly happy to wait until the 9th with my SGSIII until I get my GNote 2!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jonb39:
I know T-Mobile is not going to have any accessories at launch. According to tmonews.com, and a leaked internal document that shows all of the accessories being sold for the Note II. The first accessories (Samsung branded included) are expected to arrive Nov. 7. It is my guess that AT&T could release the Note II the same time as Sprint and T-Mobile, but they don't want to release it without any accessories for fear of losing revenue by people seeking accessories elsewhere. Carriers count on revenue from accessories with an extremely high markup to make up for the big markdowns they take on phones, especially a phone as expensive as the Galaxy Note II. T-Mobile and Sprint have likely made a calculated decision to accept these losses in order to get a leg up on AT&T and Verizon. While people surely will not be moving in droves, it is likely to attract at least some impatient Verizon and AT&T customers to their networks and makes them look good for getting it first.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] T.J. Bender:
I've now gotten different answers from two reps on the Note II pre-order. Neither one knew the off-contract pricing, but one suggested that the Note II may not even be available for pre-order without a contract or upgrade. Any of you guys hear something similar? Is there any precedent on AT&T's part not allowing a new phone to be pre-ordered off-contract?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gtalum:
If I pre-order from At&T, will I have any trouble keeping my grandfathered "unlimited" data plan? If I do still go with the GNII, should I just take my chances with walking into a store on the 9th instead of pre-ordering?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] zen313:
I've received that answer from reps in the store before, (way back when I had my windows mobile phone in 2008); One of the smaller corporate stores refused to sell it to me out of contract. I said F them, and went to the flagship store in Houston, no problems checking out. I've never seen a restriction on off-contract phones, but then again, they are AT&T.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] planoman:
I preordered the SGSIII online and did not have any issues keeping my unlimited data.

---------- Post added at 11:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 AM ----------

I pre ordered my SGSIII off contract without issues and there was tremendous demand for that phone. I doubt it will be an issue. I am sure this forum will be popping on Thursday with stories and tips. Can't wait!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] garyd9:
I might be wrong, but I expect AT&T off contract pricing to be around 650. My reasoning is that the LTE is locked to AT&T (so even if you buy it off contract, you're still locked into AT&T.)

As well, with iphone's being an exception, off-contract prices tend to be about $350 higher than the in-contract price. (Otherwise, people just buy the phone with a new contract and then pay the ETF to terminate the contract.)

Here are some other newer AT&T phones on/off contract prices. This list purposely excludes any phone that has had a price drop (such as the HTC OneX)

SGS3: 200/550

LG Optimus G: 200/550

HTC TitanII: 200/550

Samsung Rugby Pro: 100/450

See the trend? 350 more for off-contract...

Take care

I'm really pisws that at&t isn't releasing it today but making us wait more than 2 weeks longer than tmob.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] chrispyutec:
I agree....AT&T company wise is so much larger than T-Mobile and you would think they could/would leave T-Mobile in the dust and beat them to the punch. I know if it were me, I would try and be first and take advantage and get all the new customer and sales.

As usual AT&T S***

Is the AT&T version 16GB internal? I don't see any mention in the press release.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] spycedtx:
From Samsung's site, yes only 16, only white or grey.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] T.J. Bender:
At least they're apparently going to stick to the release date this time.

I suspect, as do others on this forum, that it's not phone stock that's delaying release. It's accessory stock. The cases, screen protectors and chargers they push on you at your local AT&T store are far more profitable on a per-item basis than the phone itself is, and if they don't sell it to you while you're in-store, they're not going to be able to get your money.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] erick161:
I really wish they would have brought the 32/64gb as well. Yes, I know you can throw a 64gb SD card in there, but having the option would have been nice.

...I'm going to buy the note 2. But I'll be pissed if they release some new colors or storage options after launch.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jev3gs:
Man that really puts a damper on me getting the Note 2. I really wanted something 32gb or larger because I want the best install a bunch of games on it. The Note was going to be perfect with that screen size but 16gb just totally screws me. Come on Att let me get more internal storage!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rans0m00:
as long as its not branded like verizon I will take the hit on the no 32gb. I do wonder how much profit they miss out on.... I would pay an extra hundred for 16gb more memory... in a few months if they come out with a 32gb model I wont buy another one... So I would think they made less money off of my purchase than if they originally released it with more memory.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] nuwayman:
Looks like the note 2 is available for pre order now on att web site. 299.99 with contract. 649.99 no commit price. It also says orders are scheduled to ship on November 6.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] erick161:
They sell it off contract too...

I'm gonna wait before I preorder mine. In the past, amazon and walmart, even radio shack have sold the phone on launch day for cheaper. I picked up my atrix for 149.99 versus 199.99 on launch day with no mail in rebate.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Milkman00:
I paid ~$267 or so for this phone, so I am not complaining.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] erick161:
Well if I was eligible for discounts on my line, i wouldn't be complaining either. Actually...even if no one else drops the price on launch day, I'll still pay the $299.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DannyB513:
On AT&T's website it says that the phone is 299.00 with 2 year commitment, 549.00 for 1 year commitment, and 649.00 for no commitment. It also says on the website that as of right now preorders will ship on Nov. 6.

Hope this helps clear up some stuff people were asking about.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] WestonWW:
I just spoke with the online ordering support and she confirmed that you can pre-order in store also. Should couldn't confirm but suggested that the time frame for arrival would be about the same as the online availability.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] garyd9:
I feel guilty...

I just ordered one of these at the 299 price on a phone that shouldn't be eligible for upgrade until May of 2014.

Okay, I don't really feel guilty. ;)

I ordered online this morning and AT&T already charged my credit card. Does that mean it's shipping already? (I tried starting a thread on this, not sure it was successful)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] rans0m00:
I forgot exactly what it said.. but I paid with my debit card and if I remember correctly it said if I am paying with a debit card it would go ahead and charge me now instead of at the time of shipping. And it has charged me already too.

The stores are usually left completely clueless until AFTER they are allowed to sell the phone. The only time I've seen a salesperson in a corp store actually have a clue, it turned out they got their information from engadget.

I know this is a nook question but could the fact that I am rooted with clockwork mod recovery be preventing my update?

I download the OTA update and reboot recovery and start the update then it says something about could not update do to signature or something like that.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dixit:
Because you are rooted it wont wont. It requires the stock samsung recovery to apply that update OTA. So either you put the stock samsung recovery and then apply that OTA update, or you download the CWM flashable version of that update thats available in the other forum. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1896773

Im assuming you mean the AT&T LH9 update

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
Actually, root has nothing to do with it. Its all about the stock recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dixit:
Right but most of these folks who are rooted will have done so by flashing CWM and then injecting the root zip or flashing a rooted rom. But yes it doesnt have anything to do with the root itself, it fails because the recovery isnt the stock recovery.

Best option for him would be to use the CWM flashable one I linked.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] squeakh:
How cod I flash back the stock recovery and will I lose root if I do?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dixit:
If you apply the OTA update via the stock recovery then yes you will lose root. There is a thread that has the stock recovery image file you could flash back. But again, if the LH9 is the update you looking for, then why not just use the CWM flashable ZIP on the thread I linked earlier? You are not giving much specifics if that is the update you are attempting to apply.

Dixit
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] squeakh:
I'm not sure which update it is I just know I was prompted to download an OTA update and it failed. I have not had the time I used to with my s1 to keep up to date with all that's going on with rooms and stock updates and what not. By the way what is the most stable roms out there right now? I would like to try a jelly bean Rom if they have any, also don't want to lose any features of stock.

Hi

I have flashed my S3 with France 4.1.1 LJ2 Wanam Stock odexed and I am having issues with scheduled syncing. The email app does not sync as set in the schedule, I set to once every hour but it never does it. Same with my Plume widget, set to update every 2 hours nothing, stock weather widget set to update every 3 hours nothing...Any ideas?

I have just setup everything again this morning after a reflash and when I tested the email with 10 mins schedule it was fine, now back to an hour and its not working.

Thanks

I was flashing the France Jellybean update through Odin and it stopped after Boot. I (maybe foolishly closed down Odin) and now I can't get the phone to do anything other than show the message firmware upgrade failed please connect to Kies and try recovery mode.

Please help with what I can try to revive the phone.

I've managed to bring it back to life.

I couldn't even get into recovery or download mode, just the screen saying firmware upgrade failed. Battery pulls didn't make any difference and I thought I'd got myself a brick.

As a last resort I restarted Odin and connected the phone in that state and tried to reflash from there and it worked thank god.

Anyway as I'm sorted please can the thread be closed although worth knowing that an Odin flash can still work from that situation.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] joshuaak:
So i've posted pieces of this in other threads assuming i knew what the problem was, but nobody has been able to help me so far so i'm posting the whole saga anew.

First off, my phone:

LazyPanda S-OFF

HBOOT:1.12.111

RADIO-1.12.11.0809

I was running MeanRom 4.8 with TWRP 2.3.0.1

Like so many others i tried to OTA update just to get stuck at the recovery screen on reboot. I then found out that i had no ROM installed. I tried to wipe (cache, dalvik, system, etc) and flash a new ROM but i kept getting FAIL messages in TWRP.

"Formatting and mounting partition...

e:error in /sdcard/meanrom-ics-v49-jewel-ltevo.zip

(status 1)

error flashing zip '/sdcard/meanrom-ics-v49-jewel-ltevo.zip'

updating partition details"

I figured it might be a botched DL so i did it manually, MD5 checked out after copying to the mounted device. Attempted to flash the clean DL and i got the same error message. I nandroid restored an old stock rooted ROM I had and it installed just fine. After booting up to the system ROM for the first time I immediately got an "Internal storage is low" error. Checked and after a clean restore (no apps installed, fresh out of the box...) i only have ~200MB free in the app storage section (out of 1.92GB). I can't fathom what's taking up all the other space, nothing seems to be there. Because of this i can't install Titanium, Rom Toolbox, or anything else that may be remotely useful. I tried fixing permissions and re-wiping, re-restoring and i got the same thing.

I tried to flash the TWRP 2.2.2.0 image from recovery thinking this was the problem and got this message:

"updating partition details

E:unable to open ums lunfile 'sys/class/android_usb/android/f_mass_sto.....

Formatting cache...done

Formatting Data... done

Using rm -rf on .android_secure

Updating partition details

E:unable to open ums lunfile 'sys/class/android_usb/android/f_mass_sto.....

E:unable to open zip file."

And THEN i tried to ABD flash the TWRP image through fastboot with "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.2.2.0-jewel.img" then 'fastboot flash boot openrecovery-twrp-2.2.2.0-jewel.img' and got this error:

"FAILED (remote partition is not allowed to be flushed!)"

So, i'm stuck with a device that loads a stock ROM, cant flash a new recovery or ROM, and cant' install anything useful because it's full after a restore. Does anyone have any suggestions how to clean/resore my partitions through ADB or a script? Your advice is much appreciated.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
I can't help, but I suspect you'd have better luck posting this in the TWRP thread.

I'm wondering if fastboot erase cache would help here. I've seen that command used I think to clean a partition, but it may have been for something else. Sorry, this is a bit over my head. Hope you get help.

Hello,

my wife and myself upgraded out SGS2 mobile device with the software update function in Android which worked fine. We are now running ICS 4.04, however have two different operators. I use T-Mobile and my wife Debitel.

We both experience the same problem with the Android calendar since the update: We use My Calendar and no Google Calendars. Some of my calendary entries are changeable/ editable, while with others I can only delete them. With ICS 4.03 I was able to change all my calendar entries. Some are still changeable.

Has anybody experienced the same problem? :confused:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bordikun:
default!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GR0S:
Smaller size for smaller size, bigger for bigger.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Striatum_bdr:
I think he's meaning that if you want to store mainly big files a big allocation unit is better, less fragmentation, but for little file a little allocation unit size or you'll lose a lot of space.

Default size is a compromise between that and is most if the time a good choice, unless you have only one type of files stored which is quite rare.
