$250 plus tax from Wirefly the day it came out
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] beangraff:
196 including Tax using the new Samsung deal. Originally it was 500 with a 300 MIR but I got her to credit me one month's bill of 65 dollars. I also was able to only pay 150 and delay the full payment until next month. It gives me a little more time for cash flow until the rebate comes back in.

Total was 561 including taxes. - 300 MIR - 65 Monthly bill = 196

Payment terms 150 down, Dec bill will be 476 including monthly charges, with the 300 dollar MIR following shortly.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shotchacokov:
Picked it up today. $345.90 with a $200 mail in rebate. Bill goes up $20 per month for 2 yrs.

I traded my iPhone 5. I had dropped it so the edges were ugly, and the headphones had ink all over them. Dude really wanted an iPhone 5. Couldn't be happier.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Mel_:
Don't know if it was a good deal, but called customer care and got the following for a white GNote 2:

Pay $467.23 up front ($419.99 for phone + upgrade fee + shipping + tax)

Offset by: $410.00 ($150.00 instant credit to account, $50.00 MIR, and $210.00 credit for December bill)

Net cost: 57.23

I wanted to keep my grandfathered classic voice and data plan, and I did.

I would have got the phone from Best Buy through eBay, but there were out of the white one. I did ask TMO customer care if they could match BB's price or do better, though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] yungtexas:
Bought the phone retail price from the store at 649.99 plus uncle Sams ass. All together cost me about 703 and some change. Sold my htc one s for 200 to a coworker afterwards so 503 roughly
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] nmw407:
Called retentions yesterday when the sale started and got it for free. No rebates, no upgrade fees, and no changes to my grandfathered plan. Can't beat that at all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] KillaHurtz:
Got mine from customer care for $200 flat, no rebates and I had just upgraded for the GS3 in July.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] SuijinZ:
Got mine for $710 during the first few days release. I ransack though 5-6 T-Mobile stores looking for a White one and none has it, only came in that titanium gray color. Finally found one that has it, CA tax is stupidly high so total out over $700...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ProximaC:
I was still on contract but hated my sensation so I spent 680 after tax.

So it was a killer deal... for my wallet. No regrets though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] BiGMERF:

Minus $500 for Note II & S3

Back in November 2012 when Tmobile had a 2 day sale, I picked up a Note 2 & S3 (for wife) with Rebate - The phones were supposed to be free after $500 rebate but T-Mobile sent us the rebate giftcards twice, so we ended up with $500 in our pockets :P

Just a fluke i guess..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] topnomi:
got mine for $350 off craigslist last weekend!

great condition. no scratches on screen, just a couple on the corners. case and screen protector are on their way.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] topnomi:
It came with the box. He was using it to text me when we met. He pulled his tmobile sim out, and i put mine in. He said he just got it a few months ago, and somehow his bill was alot higher than he expected, so he decided to give up. His credit will be ****, but his loss is my gain.

I have the text logs of setting up the purchase on google voice. I feel safe, but worst case scenario, i can unlock it and sell it to someone for simple mobile or att.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] shadabt:
I got it for $49 only

I got it in November when T Mobile had 2 day sale for $49 with 2 yr contract after $300 MIR.

Well cool, but remember if he stops posing his bill and he still owed payments it el Getty blacklisted in a couple months after his account goes into collections. Great price though and you're right you can Judy unlock and sell of needed
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] kozmo21:
Can you elaborate on that "Judy unlock" or the "el Getty blacklisted" :silly: j/k

Yeah, any time you get one off CL you are taking a chance. I got lucky and got mine off CL back at the end of October for $450 NIB (still sealed). Met at a T-Mobile store and the manager said he would take care of any problems if it came back later as a non payment or anything. Luckily I never had a problem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dima202:
Got mine today for $685 at T-Mobile store.

They lowered the price today from 680 to 630, with tax in nyc it's 685.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Android Revolution:
Got mine for $0.00. That's right, $0. I had the N1, had so many issues with it and multiple warranty exchanges, that a manager in the loyalty department finally offered me a complimentary upgrade to the N2. Nothing out of pocket, no contract renewal/extension.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fratermus:
$140, no contract.

Got it from my SIL who works at TMO. I covered the tax and the cost of some accessories she'd bought for it. I'm very happy with the deal. So's she, as she couldn't get used to the size. Win-win.

Originally advertised for $400. Bumped it down to $380. Craigslist.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Product F(RED):
I had a LNIB AT&T model for $450 off Swappa (came from an S3 i9300). I wanted it because it does wireless charging out of the box, and is like $100 less than the T-Mobile version. Some people are smoking cracking, thinking they can charge $550 for the T-Mobile version because it's pentaband, even though there's a mod for the AT&T version that enables AWS, and doesn't even require root or anything. Then I sold that and when I decided to go back to the N2, I bought a T-Mobile model for the same price off of Swappa because it came with lots of cases and a high-quality 6200 mAh extended battery.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] SupaKid:
$460 with quite a few extras:

-OtterBox Defender Case and Clip

-Another 2-piece case with built-in stand

-FM Transmitter from Belkin

-Car charger

So in essence, it can be said the phablet itself were around $300, no contract.

Got the phablet in near-mint condition, along with the box, headphones, USB cable, charger, and instructions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Brandonxcore:
Craigslist, guy was upgrading to a HTC ONE, he sold me it for the upgrade cost, and my hp touchpad, I was gonna wait till the day of his upgrade, but I ended up giving him alittle more money so he could get a ATT GO phone to last him a few days, since I wanted it so bad, so in total I gave him 200$ + 40$ + Hp Touchpad(I paid 100$ for) so basically 340$, it's T-Mobile, came with box and charger, clean and running Straight Talk now :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jaekidd1012:
I met someone from Craigslist in January and I paid $560 for my Note 2. Came with a case (probably an off-brand case sold in a T-Mobile store) and the flip cover. I then sold my Galaxy S3 to another person from Craigslist for $415 the following day:cool:

$450 via Swappa ($440 + $10 Swappa fee) mint with original Box. Got the Tmobile version and loving LTE (20-35Mbps down / 10-20Mbps up in my area San Jose). Came with Otterbox defender case w/ belt clip, extra leather belt clip and Samsung flip cover. My wife inherited my S3 and I hope to sell her S2 for ~$200. Still trying to figure out what to do when the Note 3 comes out since one of my phones will be due for an upgrade, but TMO doesn't subsidize phones anymore.

Tmobile version vs internaltional version?

Guys,

Im planning to buy galaxy note 2 no commitment handset but im confused which one to go for. They are same priced. Since i came to US in fall 2011 i have never used a US locked phone. Im currently using htc hd2 (the legend).

My question is if i buy att phone and then unlock it will flashing new roms etc still be a problem compared to international version. Do they provide only a code to unlock the phone or a complete new rom to flash which removes att bootloader and drivers and makes it like an international version. The only difference i guess is about warranty and lte radio between the two variants. I do not care about lte radio since im mostly connected to wifi but i care a little aboutthe warranty.

Some questions might be stupid since im new to this us version phones so im sorry about it.

Thanx in advance for replying
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stevesprivateaccount:
FYI, for the 3rd update in a row Sprint enables Connection Optimizer by default. It is a HUGE battery drainer in the past, and maybe even more so in the JB release. Remember to go into..

Settings --> More Settings --> Mobile Networks --> Connections Optimizer

and uncheck.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] m20120:
But does it stick as disabled when you disable it? I had that problem in LI3 and I ended up freezing it with Titanium Backup.

You have to go to /system/app and delete or rename Connection Manager.apk.

It is causing hell on my phone today. Keeps flipping out and flapping my WiFi connection. Just checked it in Better Battery Stats...yep, this is the third worst offender behind screen and media services. And Sprint pushed out a buggy update that won't let people turn it off...

Look for the debugfs method in the Dev section. That works on ICS but not jb as loopholes are closed on jb.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tobdaryl:
You can't use a JB rom custom or stock while you have ICS bootloader and updating to JB may remove root ( mine didn't ) and will certainly remove a custom recovery ( CWM or Twrp ). You have to unlock to install custom rom or recovery so if you are sure you wish JB custom rom why not update to JB and start from there?

Unlock, custom recovery for JB ( Twrp is my choice ), custom rom flashed with Twrp. I have not flashed any custom roms for the TF300 that weren't already rooted.

Good Luck!:good:
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dman918:
Yep, I am probably going to just go ahead and upgrade. I thought when I read that there was an advantage to being on ICS (for custom ROM purposes) but it doesn't seem to be the case. So I will get fully updated and then go from there.

Thanks!
