I pre-ordered premier on oct 27 (new ATT customer). Did online chat a minute ago and was told the status was "activated" and to call 866-499-8008 if I needed more info. Called and was asked to verify my order #, name, full address, last 4 of my social.

MY ORDER HAS SHIPPED!

Gave me the tracking # over the phone. Shipped out today from Forth Worth, TX and estimated to arrive in IL on Friday.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mzimmer88:
Has anyone had any luck getting their shipping upgraded to overnight after they placed their order?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Scythe024:
I've said this twice already, I don't know why you guys are hassling AT&T workers like crazy. They shipped the iPhone 5 the day before and it arrived on the release date. There's no reason to get upset unless your phone doesn't get there on release date, even then it says on or around Nov 9th
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Milkman00:
Calling them now.

The recording just said that my preorder was received. Pressed 0 to speak with someone at the Premier desk (at India unfortunately). Gave her my order number, my address and the last 4 of my social as well.

She said it is "in process". Hasn't been shipped and didn't have a tracking number. Oh well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] theraker007:
tried the same, my order is still pending.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Milkman00:
Nope. They said they would have to delete my order and place it again to upgrade shipping.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] A7LAS:
Just checked my order and it says shipping date today via FEDX. No tracking # yet though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Gsimmons1987:
My order says shipping today Via USPS and also doesn't show a tracking number yet. I'm surprised they're using USPS, I've ordered from them previously and it's always been FedEx or UPS. This should be interesting....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Milkman00:
Mine still doesn't show shipped BUT I am thrilled that it is Fedex. That should make the hold for pickup easy (and possible).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Android The Greek:
Talked to a representative today. She didn't sound too thrilled that I called for this issue because other people had been calling before me. She explained that Samsung did not deliver to them until today. She also said that she was sure that it was shipping out today. No update on my order yet but hope she is right. If not I am asking for my $15.00 shipping back.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Smartino666:
If it does get shipped by UPS, you can also put those shipments on hold too. You do have to create a MyUPS account (its free) but once that is done asking that it be held at their central location is easy. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Milkman00:
I have a MyUPS account, but it looks like you can only request hold for pickup after one attempted delivery unless requested by the sender.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] DropKick360:
Once, Again got off the Phone with Rep.

She Told Me My Order Would Have Shipped Today, But I also Bought a Spek Case Which is not available until tomorrow.....SO ONE MORE FREAKING DAY!!!:eek:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Smartino666:
That has not been my experience. I have noticed that the package has to have been in their system for some time before it will allow you to choose the hold option, but I have always been able to do this. I would suggest you keep trying over the next day or so and see if this option becomes available.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Flame Red:
My order just changed to: Pending Shipment :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
Called and got my Fedex tracking number as well. I was also told no signature is required so it'll be here waiting for me when I get home from work on Friday night.

[/IMG]
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Smartino666:
Fantastic :laugh: What day did you place your order?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Milkman00:
That sucks. It doesn't show as shipped for me AND yours says it was picked up a couple of hours ago. Maybe they will have another pick up today, I hope???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
I placed mine on the 27th. So I'm sure the 25th ppl should be good to go today as well. I did mine via the Premier website though and I found their customer service to be better informed today.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Smartino666:
Thanks for the info, I placed mine on the 29th, still nothing yet. Oh well nothing to do but wait.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duarian:
Hey guys, I just ordered this tablet today on sale from newegg. Pretty excited for it! I had a nexus 7 I purchased today but for $30 I feel I got a lot more tablet.

I have only rooted two devices in the past, my S3 and Droid X2, both were either 1 click roots or simply plugging into odin and flashing a rooted image.

I saw there were two different guides, one was very in depth..I also heard of tablets coming with a new software update that might not be rootable yet? Which is the best guide to follow for rooting this device?

Also, I noticed there are two CWM recoveries, one for JB and one for others. When I update to the latest JB OTA, and flash that, what happens when I install a custom ROM, should I flash the 'other' CWM then?

Thanks for the answers! Can't wait for this tablet to come in the mail!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sosroz:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1697227

For rooting and installing custom recovery, check out the videos on the link there, especially the ones from allaboutandroid. There should be a step to unlock your tablet there as well...

I'm guessing you're still on stock ICS, yes? In that case, after you apply the OTA JB update from Asus, you should install the CWM for JB only. You don't lose recovery after you flash a custom ROM. Do not, however, attempt to flash a JB ROM on ICS recovery, and vice versa. That would soft brick your tablet. Hope that helps :)

Update: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1966910

Link to a post that explains the rooting process as well.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duarian:
Thanks man. That first guide is a little overwhelming at first. Lots of information haha. I haven't received mine yet but really looking forward as its my first tablet. Really appreciate the links and everything. Unlocking the boot loader seems easy enough!

Edit: should I apply the JB OTA and then unlock boot loader? Or does it not matter since the boot loader unlock works on ICS and jellybean?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sosroz:
Well, it doesn't really matter which step you do first, but you might as well apply the OTA first, and then unlock and flash custom recovery + root all at once. Also, there might be a chance that you won't be getting the OTA notification from the tablet itself if you unlock first (some users reported this, although it doesn't seem to be across the board)...

Update: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1845377

Another link for rooting and recovery, this one labelled 'noob-proof'. If you're installing the OTA first, start from Step 3..
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duarian:
Haha thanks. Really appreciate it. As I said all of my past rooting experience has been simple. This one is a bit more in depth but I can follow directions just fine

I recall reading somewhere about two types of recoveries. One for stock JB and one for everything else. If I flash a custom ROM will I need to change my recovery at all if I go with TWRP JB?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sosroz:
Yeap, this tablet was my first experience with android, and from what I heard there are more steps involved here than with the other tablets/phones. I actually skipped a step and soft-bricked my tablet once XP

No, unless you want to flash stock-based ICS ROMS, which by now is kinda outdated anyway (they even ported CM10 to the JB bootloader already). TWRP should do the trick for some time :)
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duarian:
Sounds great, thanks for all the replies. I would hate to get my tablet and accidentally brick it (I would probably cry). It was between this and the Nexus 7 but I feel I made the right choice. My S3 already has a decently big screen, 3 more inches isnt worth $300 IMO. However 6-7 more I think is a winner!

Edit: Ugh, looks like an update was pushed out today. Curious if this will break the rooting methods or not...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
I sure hope the screen technology on the new LG Nexus 4 is as good as, or close to that of the HTC One X screen ?

I have the Galaxy Nexus, and international One X, running CM10 Nightly's on both. There is absolutely no question whatsoever, that the One X has by far the superior screen technology, over Samsung's 720p pentile AMOLED screen on the Galaxy Nexus. The One X is easier to see outside in daylight, the image is more crsip / sharp on the One X, and reading texts in e-mails and news webpages is also far clearer and more detailed on the One X. Only thing the Samsung screen has on it, is the deep blacks and cartoon colors, that's it.

I know the Nexus 4 uses IPS technology, similar to that of HTC's One X. I am not even asking for the Nexus 4 to be better than the One X's screen, I will be a happy camper as long at it is at least the same quality and clear image.

Whats the verdict ?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theoneofgod:
I read somewhere that they are very close in quality. Hard to choose which is best, so I wouldn't worry!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] versd:
some say yes

i think probably not, but close
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ErikWithNoC:
They're basically even. I wager some reviews will say its better, but overall they'll be a draw.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FatalityBoyZahy:
I'd say it's better. IPS is amazing.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Looks like you can afford it, buy it and put it side by side then let us know. I would go to a Sprint or ATT store, they have both the One X and LG Optimus G.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Initial_G:
Screen

They should be very similar, the only difference I could see from the Specs sheet is that the Nexus 4 has a resolution of 1280x768 and 320dpi vs the One X's 1280x720 and 312 dpi.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamal Ahmed:
its better afaik...

768x1280 vs 720x1280

True HD IPS plus vs Super IPS2

plus the contrast is greater :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wurzelsepp3:
OT:

If I'm not mistaken, the SLCD2 screens in the ONE X are made by Samsung, and now they even makw SLDC3 1080p screen like showcased in the HTC J Butterfly.

I don't understand why Samsung keeps using their inferior (Screenburn, low Brighness, inaccurate colors.., in most cases higher power usage) Amoled screens

in their top Smartphones.

The Galaxy Note 2 with an 5.5" 1080p SLCD3 would have been amazing.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisjcks:
You are COMPLETELY mistaken - Samsung don't make the one x screens at all.

Sharp & acer make the screens available on the ONEX (with Sony making a few that seem to be U.S AT&T version only)

Sharp is the warm yellow variant

Acer is the cool blue variant

Most say sharp is the better version.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wurzelsepp3:
"S-LCD Corporation (Hangul: 에스 엘시디, Japanese: エス・エルシーディー) is a South Korean manufacturer of amorphous TFT LCD panels and wholly owned subsidiary of Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd"

This is what Wikipedia tells me.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisjcks:
Panel IDs for HTC ONE X

Sharp 0x294000f

Acer 0x4940014

Sony 0x1810

Sony tends to be US AT&T only for most, international devices are either acer or sharp.

So, you can forget Samsung making these screens.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaju123:
S-LCD is a company name for Samsung, not the name of an LCD technology. It's super-LCD versus Samsung-LCD. Same acronym, different meaning.

For close ups use Macro always. For notes and stuffs you could use the auto contrast feature or change scene mode to 'text' and metering as spot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wizzardeel:
I was rooted on a stock ROM on my Verizon S3, and I today used the EZ-Unlock app and unlocked my bootloader, flashed CWM6 and backed up my ROM, and now I have charged my phone and it seems as my battery life has improved significantly. could this be to the fact that I unlocked my bootloader and the locked bootloader service is not running in the background eating my battery out? still on stock ROM rooted. anybody else experienced the same or otherwise?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tghockey07:
Doubtful. An unlocked bootloader just allows for most customization. The unlocking part doesn't do anything, but if you change the kernel or rom, then that will do it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wizzardeel:
well my battery improved. i read some reviews when the ez-unlock came out people were talking about poor battery life, i guess they fixed it. im fine with my ICS with nova launcher prime. it's working great.

its probably a placebo effect. unlooking the bootloader wont effwct battery life

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BobbySlapaho:
I just cracked the screen on my E4GT today and can't stand looking at the cracks. It's driving me nuts!!! Sprint has cut me off from using Assurion as I have wore out my "replacement" welcome. I'm not a huge fan of the GS3, and after spending a little while with my friend's, I really didnt see that big of a performance boost over my S2. The Note 2 is too freaking big. I really dont want to spend $200 on an Optimus G or the Sprint One X, and I hate IOS.

It doesn't look like we are going to see a CDMA Nexus 4 anytime soon. There are some pretty stellar deals out there for the GNex, but I'm not sure if I wan't to waste an upgrade on a phone with year old tech. I hear that with project butter on Jellybean, the phone still performs almost as well as some of the newer devices on the market. So, I guess what I'm asking is this......Would anyone out there recommend the Gnex this late in the game? Or should I suck it up, spend the extra cash I don't necessarily have to spend and get one of the newer phones on Sprint?

It would be cool to have 2 Nexus 7s and a Gnex all running stock google in the house too!!! LOL

Also, is it extremely difficult to change out a screen on the E4GT? I was supposed to give my son my phone once I finally upgraded and might be able to save a few bucks that way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ÜBER™:
Just upgraded my Mom to a gnex. On upgrade price. Can't beat stock android. Its a nice phone and never ceases to surprise me. Also have two N7's mine and my bros. I can't tell a difference between the two in terms of performance. Games... maybe... but for the most part they are equally smooth. I would say get one off contract, I don't think you'll regret it. And when you get it. Check out my port of rasbean. :)

However I never go out whitout a case I dropped it once from 1 foot drop and got black spots when viewing very dark background in dark rooms :/ it breaks really easy..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] intern:
It's still a very good phone, and it'll get 4.2 and run it well. Also, the CM10 and other ROMs are very mature. I'm sure you'd be happy with the Gnex, though after 6 months you may regret it when there are new phones from Samsung and HTC that will be better even than the One X and the GS3.

You could pick one up for pretty cheap on eBay and save the upgrade for something else later on?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shahkam:
Yeah better save your upgrade and buy one off cheap the net .. and when your tired of youe gnex or like a new device that is out you can use your upgrade ;)

OK so real quick...I've spent some time with lg devices in the past. One being the lg thrill which I was particularly not fond of maybe cuz it was my wife's phone and maybe cuz I was using a Samsung infuse at the time on att. Also my mom had some lg pre-smartphone thing a few years ago that was so ugly and cheap feeling.

I really want to think this device will be amazing but am i the only one who is a little bit nervous for Google on this device? Maybe I missing something or maybe I'm just plain weird but can someone tell me? Can lg pull this thing off ? I mean all of Google Android reputations are counting on this device to knock it out of the park!!! Is it gonna happen?!?!? Even for $350???
