what area are you in? is lte even in the stars for you? have you been to s4gru.com
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] simply dave:
Orange County, CA. It's in the cards. Supposed launch April 2013.

...I think it's gonna get pushed. They're at 8% completion.

I"ve had the note 2 about a month comming from E4GT and the wimaxx is the only thing I miss. It's the only complaint I have actually. It's strange though, here in Kansas City the LTE is spotty but when you get a good signal its faster than my Time Warner road runner.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mitchellvii:
As awesome as the GN2 is there will be something in 6 months that makes it look like crap by comparison. If you can wait on getting a new phone wait. Samsung should be coming out with their flexible unbreakable screens later this years and everything is going full HD.

GN2 is awesome but its this close to be old tech already.

I honestly would pay an extra hundred bucks for a phone if they gave me the option to upgrade every year. A 2 year old phone by today's standards is a complete relic.

## My guess is that within a year even touchscreens will have gone the way of the Dodo. The new thing will be just waving your finger in front of the phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] misterzeno:
I am very pleased with my gn2, if you dont have lte in your area and use wimax keep your phone. If you dont then you will complain about 3g, besides the fact new phones are around the corner.

Rumor mill is going crazy. Is there any confirmed press releases on the foldable screens? I thought we were at least a few years on before they would come to fruition.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] MiguelHogue:
I have the n2

No lte yet but I never used 4G on my e4gt since it was a battery hog

As far as upgrading.. Just a big waiting game.. Waiting for the one phone to come.. Rumors of another one.. Waiting for that.. That's how I missed out on the note 1..Which Alot of people are still using.. Happy with that I have now

Don't wait for the next big thing. Because by the time it comes out there will be an even better next big thing.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jcossack88:
What part of OC? Near Anaheim/Orange is where they are doing the upgrades. I work next to Disneyland and I get pretty good 3G over there.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] garwynn:
Honestly if LTE isn't on the way you might as well stay on the E4GT.

I wouldn't have jumped off except needed to switch to Sprint and got a heck of a deal doing so.

Then when you can use the new features look and see what's available then.

Chances are you'll end up with a much better phone and deal.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jcossack88:
WiMax was not that fast...when I was on it in OC I would get about 3 Mbps down
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jcossack88:
This was an LTE speed test in Envino, CA
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] yellowman82:
Maybe in your area ut wasnt but when I had the e4gt I used to get 11mbps inside my house and between 13 to 16 mbps around the corner of my house I thought that was great that's the reason I stayed on that phone until I saw they started testing lte in my area so I went ahead and jumped ship to my note 2.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] simply dave:
All of OC is supposed to make the shift. I think they're starting mainly in Riverside/ San Bernardino atm.

I hear the echos of just wait until LTE is out and while it makes me sad, I probably will. I want a new phone already!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] simply dave:
Also, my wimax is pretty fast. Not blistering but very little buffering time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] garwynn:
Honestly WiMax ought to get faster as folks move to LTE.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jcossack88:
OC and Riverside are getting upgraded at the same time
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mike.too.cool:

al i know is that my speeds are terrible with 3g
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jcossack88:
Where are you at? I work at the Hilton next to Disneyland, and I get pretty decent speeds.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] simply dave:
^LTE?

I've used sensorly and it doesn't indicate there is any LTE in OC.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] monkeybone12:
I got mine and don't miss the E4GT. It just sits forlorn on a desk now. This thing was worth the jump, but even crazier phones running in the rumor Mill. You could wait, or jump now. Either way you shouldn't be disappointed!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] EVO-lution of Man:
I just got my gn2 today and I must say wow! I came from the ns and I am entirely satisfied with my choice. I have this thread to thank as it provided me with the info I needed to choose. Thanks to everyone and there great insight.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tarellel:
G-N2 all the way, I switched from an E4GT this week and I'm not regretting it. These speed of the new phone is soooo much better
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] yellowman82:
I'm glad you guys love the phone and was brave enough to risk and make the jump to this phone as to I seen folks hesitating to jump ship because they think this phone might not be a big jump so they rather wait for the next big thing but this phone is up there and great.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] kinextions:
What is the next "it" phone coming out. I still have the 3D because I dont get LTE in Tampa yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] ac16313:
There is no "it" in today's age. By the time that phone's out the will be a new one rumored. My best advice to you would be wait till august or October to get that wave of phones or get a good one now and completely fall off of using tech sites to see rumored phones or else you'll regret your purchase no matter what you buy. :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] yankees45us:
I had 3d before my note 2. It was a decent phone and loved all the features, but workmanship was horrible. Had it replaced over 8 times and it was never for physical damage. Put it this way, even with a refurbished 3d I used a nexus s 4g between that time and when I got note 2. It will take an amazing phone to get me back to htc. To put it this way, sprint gave me a choice to change into another phone, either evo 4g, original epic or htc shift. Pathetic. Will never pay sprint for in store repair again.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
You have pretty much the right idea.

There's a few pointer i would suggest. Back up your contacts to google. Save all your photos to your PC.

When you are making the move from 2.2.1 to 4.1.2 or 4.2, I would start it all new. I would not restore anything you had in froyo (2.2.1) to 4.1.2.

With that in mind, put your phone into download mode, flash jscott's gb with bootloaders.

Flash cm9 and then cm10 as instructed on their ops or andros's write up.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] andros11:
Also I noticed you have a step about flashing the OC kernel, but OC has now been integrated into the kernel that comes with the build.

And as qkster stated, avoid restoring data. If there is something essential you do not want to lose you may restore data for that specific app and in case you start having issues, you know what to blame.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Argurotoxus:
Luckily, the guide I read on backing up suggested both of those things, so I've done those.

I'm underway! I managed to successfully install the option D from jscott, but I'm a little confused on how to flash the bootloaders. Do I need to put my phone back into download mode to use Odin again? I tried that, and Odin doesn't seem to want to recognize my phone.

And sadly, I can't skip out on the bootloaders as I'm sure you guessed. Upon trying to go to CM9 I failed miserably due to rainbows. I actually used your guide to get back to well, stock UCLB3, and from there I've been trying to get the bootloaders on by putting my phone in download mode.

With no luck, sadly. Odin just doesn't want to show my phone as connected. Kinda stuck at the moment!

EDIT: I re-read the guide of yours I followed and saw that all I had to do was flash the thing a second time with the install bootloaders box checked. Unfortunately, I've done that, and I can clearly read the words "Uploading SBL...SBL upload failed!" on my screen.

Doesn't take much of a genius to figure out that the BL likely stands for bootloaders, so now I'm slightly freaking out. Heimdall One-click is currently trying to end the session. I'm of course going to let it go as long as I can hoping that it ends things nicely as I'm terrified to try turning anything off at this point. Hopefully I didn't just permanently destroy my phone =\

Andros: Oh thank you for saving me from the OC mishap. I suppose there's some good in me not having gotten that far yet due to problems!

EDIT 2:

I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! I swapped my USB ports around a bit and kept trying with your Heimdall One-click stuff and finally got the bootloaders in! Once that went through the rest was easy as pie : ) Everything's going smooth, I'm currently installing JB Gapp stuff, then I'm going to follow the rest of my ROM guide and I don't forsee any issues. Thank you guys again, both of your guides and your responses were very helpful!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] csandman1977:
I want to thank YOU arguro. If everybody had the patience and intelligence to so thoroughly research what they wanted to do there would be so many less help I bricked my phone threads and a whole lot less irritated developers.

You went into the process with the right amount desire / fear. Glad you made it and welcome to jellybean!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackinches:
Hey all, been cruising just fine on Hellybean with devil recovery. It started acting funky so I went to a backup back in August that was a fresh, perfect install. Well I forgot it was the next to last backup and not the latest backup. The first backup was an accident backup that never backed up correctly. Well after it not booting I tried the "3rd" backup thinking that was the correct one. That put me back to ICS. Well after I booted into ICS I went back to recovery but it was CWM recovery instead. So I determined the "2nd" backup was the right one after the former ones didn't either. Well unless my backups changed when It went from Devil recovery to CWM recovery then I have no clue what happened. I selected the "2nd backup" and I guess that was from a complete different backups from a different recovery.

Sorry if my post is confusing. Hard to explain all of it on text.

As of now the phone is sitting at the splash screen for whatever OS it has on it now. Want to say a year old or so. I can't get into the recovery by turning it off and holding the volume buttons while turning it on so I'm a little stuck.

Any advice to get back to my JB backup or did I lose any JB backup I had when devil got replaced with CWM?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m1batt1:
Since you have no idea what you've currently got running and you can't seem to get into recovery then my only suggestion is to get it into download mode. From there get yourself the KK4 one click and take it back to stock. Then flash back to helly bean. As far as your backups go if you're sure of which one is which at this point you should be able to restore from it. But you might just start from scratch and forego the potential issues again.

The backups should all be there though, unless your internal and/or external storage got wiped by accident at some point.
[Nexus 7 General] Explore3:
The 3g 32gb Nexus will be released tomorrow. Has anyone seen any signs that they are available anywhere besides the play store? I would like to avoid the taxes and/or shipping changes.

PS Does the play store take returns if i have a screen lift problem.

PPS Since I currently do have a 7" tablet, I don't need to buy tomorrow. However, I would like 2 !!!

[Nexus 7 General] phonic:
1) Outside of a T-Mobile "internal" document, I haven't seen any real confirmation about the release tomorrow (or technically today). It very well might happen, but it also might not. I'm hoping B&M stores carry them too, but it's unknown right now.

2) Yes, you have 15 days (or something like that) for a return and a full year warranty directly through Play Store - if you buy through them.

3) Is that a question?
[Nexus 7 General] Explore3:
3) No, it was not a question. It was a plea for someone to tell me/justify my impulse to just buy the N7 as soon as it is released. I am also trying to resist buying the Nexus 4 on release.
[Nexus 7 General] adamhlj:
Go to the play store and see what happens when you try to select the 3G N7. My browser seems to be glitching. Edit, NM, its back to normal now.

And the only place it says that this device will be released is on the official google blog, but beyond that, i haven't heard a single thing. I even called the CS line today, and the only thing they told me was that "There is no definite release date."
[Nexus 7 General] Explore3:
It was not released in Australia along with the N4 and the N10.

I got an email from the UK Play store this morning saying the 3G model was available, and I have successfully placed an order.
[Nexus 7 General] AngeleDei:
Ditto. Was a bit of a git getting on to the website intially, but I managed and I've ordered it. 3-5 working days delivery (£13.99 p&p) . I got in work late as I didnt want them selling out before I got one... waited bloody ages for this.

It seems that no "bricks and mortar" outlets will currently stock the 3g version of the Nexus 7 in the UK and the only place to get it is Play Store.
[Nexus 7 General] AngeleDei:

[Nexus 7 General] adamhlj:
For those of you that got the HSPA+ N7, did you get a notification in your email saying that it had gone on sale first?

NM, I reread people's emails. I need to do that better, haha :)
[Nexus 7 General] iso1600:
from the looks of things, only people in EU/etc are getting availability so far.... which means they prob just checked the store and it was there.
[Nexus 7 General] AngeleDei:
Yeah I got an email at the moment the play store had the Nexus 7 3G in stock. However, I'd been checking it every few minutes anyway :)
[Nexus 7 General] Macktv:
I've been patiently waiting for this to come out, but it seems no stores are stocking it online. Not in the UK so Google Play order while possible, is a bit pointless.

Are there any retailers indicating they'll get stock soon?
[Nexus 7 General] AngeleDei:
There is NO indication at this point that any retailers apart from Google Play will be stocking the 3g version of the Nexus 7. I checked thoroughly or I would have bought in a shop rather than online, as I would have prefered to have checked the thing over.
[Nexus 7 General] phonic:
3G Version is LIVE in the US Play Store.

I finally got through too. My first browser just hung so I did a second order and it went through. Took like 40mins from start to finish. This unit better be perfect. I'm going to return my (perfect) 32GB once I receive the 3G unit, so I'll be pissed if I need to RMA the 3G one for some defect.

[Nexus 7 General] cmstlist:
Ordered mine in Canada. Now to get my SIM cut down...
[Nexus 7 General] phonic:
You have two options in the US - AT&T and T-Mobile. Well, technically you might be able to use one of the various GSM MVNOs, but they all use one of those two as the underlying carrier (ie: StraightTalk). Both have pretty cheap prepaid data plans or ways you can "share" your data if you already have service through them as an add-on.

I think I might go with AT&T. I don't need a lot of data, and they offer a $15 250MB/month plan, which is probably more than I need for email and whatnot. T-Mobile also offers something similar.
[Nexus 7 General] adamhlj:
I am on Tmousa right now. I am opting to add a second line and do a 1000 minute shared plan and UNLIMTED 4G between my phone and my tablet. Should only be about $100 plus tax. At least, that is the plan. I figure if I always have access to 4G (as craptastic as the coverage is on tmousa is), I should be good to go when I am out and about. Plus, if i ever want my LTE fix, I have a mifi hotspot.
[Nexus 7 General] mikespe:
I ordered the N7 3G right when it was available. Funny thin is that I ordered it using my iPad 2! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I got the email saying it was available about 30 minutes after ordering.

I'm in the Rochester NY area so I might go with T-mobile. I'm currently on vzn with the Gnex and have unlimited data. I'm looking to leave van in may wh3n my contract is up and thought I could test Tmobile for a bit to see how it is around here. I hope it ships tomorrow but I thought I saw somewhere it said the 15th?

I'm excited to have a tablet with data! I currently tether to my nexus but have a 10in iPad or Acer Iconia A500 mounted in the car is a bit much! (I drive a 2012 KIA Rio SX so every inch counts! (that's what she said too ;)

[Nexus 7 General] Explore3:
I could not find any rumors of anyone selling the 3g version other than the Play store. (I am the OP) I ended up placing my order a few minutes ago. I guess I should place my order for a case. I will probably go with the Blurex slim case.

I wonder if the 3g Nexus 7 will show as in-stock in the Australia Play store.
[Nexus 7 General] phonic:
Honestly, while part of me would prefer to pick one up locally (and save on S/H), it's actually probably good that we're getting it from the Play Store. Because if we bought it thought a retail store, once the 15-30 day return policy was up, we would have to deal with Assus Support for any RMAs or warranty support. But by buying through Google directly, they take care of that. Plus, on the card I used, I get a free year warranty extension, which is nice.
[Nexus 7 General] Explore3:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Heuser1:
Hey Everyone:

Got my GN2 on launch day from AT&T and am loving it so far!

I am however having an issue when I set up events. When I do so, one of the fields is "Location" and next to it there is the little google maps icon, in trying to put the location, it is never found. The error reads something about "no results found..."

This field has always worked on my previous Android devices and I find it odd that it is working working on my GN2.

If anyone has some insight on this situation, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the help and I hope you are all enjoying your device!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Buckeyeken:
I got my phone Friday , rooted it Saturday and after going hog wild by installing APK files , I put the phone down to watch some TV . After a while I looked at the phone and it was on the Samsung boot up screen . I couldnt reboot it without taking the battery out , but it still goes through the boot screens and stops on the "SAMSUNG " logo. I have since went through the process of wipe data /factory reset on the phone and still its the same . I have also went back to Odin and tried the root again . Nothing helps . So , do I have to wait for someone to create a TAR file of my stock firmware and then use Odin again to get me back to normal?
