Thanks for the heads up!

I've seen this mentioned elswhere as well and it's defintely not worth the risk for me. I bit on this deal sunday night and then became concerened after I received the email informing they were out of stock. This along with the fact that you don't receive the gift "card" until earlynext year was rather daunting, but then I read the your post, checked

some sources then cancelled walmart, ordered with verizon this morning and it's way for thursday delivery. It wasn't worth the wait and the possible hastle as I need to use this phone on a different line.

Thanks again!

Also FYI: I got this a couple days ago

Thanks for shopping with Walmart Wireless!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wooties:
I haven't seen or heard any news about any Wal-Mart order being shipped yet. I'm hoping that we are getting these notices as a way to placate us for the actual release date of tomorrow and we'll start seeing tracking numbers today/tomorrow. But really, who knows? I am not going to second guess my choice until next week passes and I still don't have the phone. $100, is worth it to me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flaring afro:
My status is still awaiting inventory. Anyone have any changes yet? It also might not be updated that quickly, but I hope they start shipping today.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
From what I've seen with their system, they update almost real time. So I won't be surprised if they don't even ship most of the phones out this week. Probably and hopefully next week.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] haupman:
Has anyone walked into a Walmart today and purchased the Note 2 and received the $100 Gift Card promotion?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flaring afro:
I do not believe stores have it. Last weekend the stores didn't have in the DNA, or even the black or amber GS3 variants. They seem to get things in very slowly, at least the many walmarts where I live.

Couldn't hurt to check though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] haupman:
I called my local store and they said it wasn't in.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wooties:
So.. not to start a riot or anything: Out of Curiosity, I went to Best Buy earlier today. Mentioned that I had it on order for Wal-Mart with a $100 off gift card. They gave me the phone at $100 discount! -True story.

So now I have the beast and it's BEAUTIFUL. Hang in there guys!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] haupman:
I hate to ask you this, but is there anyway that you can post a scan with your specific information removed?

I am getting the idea that it will be weeks before Walmart gets these in stock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flaring afro:
Going to Best Buy and Verizon tomorrow to try this at both, unless my status changes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] wooties:
The Receipt? Sure thing. I've removed the store number and some things because I don't want the nice Associate to get busted for anything since I'm pretty sure their policy doesn't work this way (usually):

Edit: removed receipt pic
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] IvanNCase:
Just got mine at best buy. Went to one and they wouldn't match so I went to a walmart to see if they had any in stock and they didn't so I tried another and still none so then I went to another best buy and they matched the same deal $299 with a $100 best buy gift card. Not as good as just getting the phone for $199 but I can't complain.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
Went to my local best buy and the sales guy got the ok from the manager to do $199 as well. I haven't pulled the trigger as I had to pick up my son. The store is holding one for me until tomorrow. I'm also concerned they will do another hard credit pull (which would make 5) just to set up this account. Plus there will be tax and I will lose the $40 credit for activating a new line on the shared data plan. But then again, as someone else mentioned, it might be a while before Walmart ships.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jamezr:
Went to my local Best Buy and got the Galaxy Note 2 for 199. They price matched the Walmart wireless price. They would not do the gift card option so they just dropped the price instead!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flaring afro:
When you got the phone at best buy, did you somehow cancel your walmart order there? And so you lost the walmart upgrade fee dawei213? That's annoying, I figured you could still get it back...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
No, I haven't done anything yet. They have the phone on hold for me until tomorrow. I'm not sure what you mean by the walmart upgrade fee but there was a promo for a $40 Bill Credit With A New Share Everything Plan which won't transfer if I get it at Best Buy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flaring afro:
I meant the standard "upgrade fee" you pay whenever you buy a new phone that verizon charges. I think it's $30 at verizon but was $40 with walmart.

Edit: I just realized that goes on your verizon bill. I'd assume they won't charge you double if you switch after being approved on walmart's site.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] efotonik:
Stopped by my local BB last night and had no troubles at all having them price match Walmart; same experience as jamezr where they simply reduced the price by $100 as they "can't compete with the in-store credit" per the associate.

This phone is fantastic and I'm sure the development and support here will be too!

e
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
Oh ok, no, this is a new line of service. I just have to pay activation fee.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mnhockeydude:
I was told by Best Buy that they cannot price match until there is stock available at Walmart... Ugh... I want to get this phone...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
It's a complete YMMV. The best buy near my work wouldn't do it. It all depends on who you talk to and whether the manager at the store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] KHAWACHEN:
but looks like it's just for AT&T carrier.

no discount on Verizon
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jinwu57:
Has anyone received shipping confirm?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
Hmm, i wonder why they changed the URL. I've updated the original post. Thanks!

Nope, which is why i'm about an hour away from going to Best Buy that has the phone reserved for me and going to pick it up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
This is odd, I got the gift card option... they wouldn't give me th $100 off.

tell them to call all the Wal-Marts in the surrounding area, they will cave and give you the discount. they said the same thing to me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] haupman:
Best Buy took $100 off the phone for me and then charged me $100 for the gift card. Good thing is the gift card is not taxed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
So yeah. i would've preferred the $100 off. I had a real ***** when i went in, and they tried so hard not to give out the discount. i'm going to another best buy today because the store manager approved the $100 off. Then this geek squad girl found out and told the boss, we don't do that. so she convinced him to give us the gift card after he OK'd it. anyways, some other associate was saying that you can get the gift card as a gift with purchase, and then use that gift card on the same purchase. i forgot my reward points, so i'm going back tonight ot try to have them re-ring it WITH the gift card + my reward certificates.

Truly, YMMV.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jinwu57:
Thanks for shopping with Walmart Wireless!

Just a quick note to let you know that we received confirmation from Verizon Wireless that your Samsung Galaxy Note II White - 4G LTE is due to arrive in our distribution center Monday, 12/3. Once it lands in our facility, it will be shipped out within the hour. We will send you an email as soon as it is ready to ship.

Thank you very much for shopping with us. We value your business and appreciate your patience.

Sincerely,

Your Friends at Walmart Wireless

Bitter sweet! I was hoping to have it this weekend. Oh well! I guess it's going to be more like next Wednesday.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flaring afro:
I got this too. I had just cancelled my order an hour ago and recieved an email already confirming the cancellation. I've got a best buy holding one for me that said they'd sell it for $200. I had thought it would be a while because DNA people seemed to be in the same position, while their phone is less well known and has been out longer. Getting it tonight will be nice anyways, but the closest beat buy do have a gray one and a best buy mobile in a mall did but wouldn't price match gift card deals. Gonna have to drive 25 minutes each way but that isn't too bad.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ProfessorPinky:
Shipping Next Week!!!

Received that same email about a 1.5 hours ago. Ordering mine Nov. 25

I went to Best Buy and after spending more than an hour there (most of the time with a manager because the cust. reps turned me down) they were going to match the Walmart deal by charging the $299 and give me a $100 Best Buy gift Card. I was going to take the offer but then I asked about the amount I will be taxed on. The sales tax was going to be for Best Buys retail amount of $799. That was going to be another $63. Needless to say I passed on the offer.

The good thing about Walmart is they eat the sales tax plus I can actually use the Walmart gift card to buy something I need like food.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
True story...

So I wasnt sure when the walmart order would get fulfilled. I decided to go to the best buy mid afternoon that has the phone reserved for me and get it there for $200. Well after getting the phone activated and paid for everything, I added my Google account. Not ten seconds later, I get the email that everyone else has gotten about shipping Monday. Seriously? Yeah seriously. Now I'm contemplating just returning this phone tomorrow. It'll be a $55 difference all said and done. Oh well.

Btw, this phone rocks. For browsing and some light videos, I no longer need to use my laptop or ipad.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flaring afro:
Well, the farther Best Buy told me on the phone they'd price match the $100 gift card deal with proof (printout), then I was told they would again when I brought the printout there but didn't have the primary holder's last 4 SSN. The phone was put on hold for me again and I came back at night and waited for an hour and a half, then the new person tells me they can't price match gift cards. I told him I was told on the phone and by the other person they would, and it became a big ordeal with them calling that worker and the manager getting involved who said I could not have the deal. I cancelled my walmart order after the first time being there in person where it was approved, and also spend over 3 hours today trying to get the phone when you include driving. Needless to say I'm quite pissed. I haven't decided yet if I'm going to make a new order with walmart or just try to go in to a verizon store tomorrow and get one. I have a $50 credit at verizon toward an upgrade and after all of that, I just want it now. I'm thinking verizon would have sold off all of theirs by tonight though...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Tkun:
I went to Best Buy earlier today and they were willing to drop the price to $199.99 + tax, but my bill has to be paid before I can make the purchase apparently, and they won't price match the deal after the promotion ends at Walmart (which is when the bill will get paid), so I'm just sticking with my Walmart order. It sucks that I have to wait an extra week for my phone, but I'll be in a 2-year contract with it, so I'll have more than enough time to play around and get cozy with it, thus I'm gonna take a chill pill and relax. :p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] haupman:
I actually went back to Best Buy today and returned the $100 gift card and received my money back so it ended up working out pretty well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Python021:
sweet deal, which bestbuy?

I actually work at best buy and we would never give that discount even if we charged for a gift card.

My question is, can you tell me which best buy did this for you. I just got my note2 and maybe if I show them that another

Store did it, then they will do it for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
YMMV, many stores do it. Just call around. I have at least 4-5 best buys in my area and all offered the same deal. Long story short, I wanted the other deal without the gift card and none of the stores would honor the 199.99 or return the gift cards - even after I was promised that they would. Seriously, YMMV.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
Hmm... it's Monday, 12/3 and no email. I did return the Best Buy phone that I got in hopes of getting this and saving about $60 (tax and $40 credit)...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ProfessorPinky:
No email yet

No email for me yet either, there is still eleven hours left in the day.

Hopefully there won't be a problem with your order because of getting your phone at best buy which I am assuming you used your upgrade. Maybe it clears the system quickly and no delays will happen.

Crossing my fingers for us all and double crossing that you don't have any problems.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dawei213:
No, this is a new line so I was within my period to cancel the initial contract. Thanks for your concern though :good:

Yep, I see I have a number assigned already. Do these phone come activated or do we have to call to get them live? Reason why I'm asking is because I might delay my activation to next week if possible.

Found a guy in my area selling this on craigslist. Looks perfect, is it a good deal?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bps119:
It is a good deal as long as the phone works and you can use your sim to get a signal (i.e. The carrier hasn't locked it for non-payment or something.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] RastarNation:
+1. They range anywhere from $180-300 in South Florida. Average around $250.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] GTDarthYoda:
That's what I've been seeing is around 250. I want one cause my Xperia play is finally dying and slimbean is one of my favorite roms which this device is officially supported! :good: :good:

I'm going to check it out today. Anything I should look for in terms of defects?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bps119:
As long as you can get into download mode, recovery mode, and the phone gets a signal, I'd think you'd be fine.

Thx you 2

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] undergrad:
Is there any work around to get ROM Manager to work on the HTC One X?

Whenever I try using the application it tells me that I must install "ClockworkMod recovery" and It appears to be unavailable for the HTC One X currently. Am I just doing something wrong here?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] InflatedTitan:
Yeaaaaa. Everything you just mentioned is wrong. Do not use rom manager, or CWM. You'll brick as it IS NOT supported for our phone.

That is, if you have a branded dual core version with LTE.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] undergrad:
Thank you for the confirmation.

Is there a similar program I can use that will work with the HTC One X?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Why not just flash thru recovery?

If you're running the CM10 ROM, I'm pretty sure there's a nifty updater app available from play store. It basically checks your current version and only downloads the parts needed for the next nightly you want to install, which saves doing a full download and flash. But like I said that's only for CM10 users.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] InflatedTitan:
Are you rooted and unlocked? The OP wasn't clear of your current standing. Download goo manager and install twrp
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] NJGSII:
Rom manager only ever worked well with CM roms. But even then it's better to use twrp. Using it on stock based roms is asking trouble.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] InflatedTitan:
Where did cm10 come from in his post? Lol you confused me
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Skeeterdrums:
Most people just flash through recovery with twrp (which has a nice touch screen interface btw). I've heard that the highest supported version for the HOX is 2.3.1.0, so just make sure the version you install is supported.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Ya I thought that might happen haha. It was just a bit of information, ROM manager was used by some to flash updates etc so I thought it might be vaguely relevant.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] omario8484:
Why do people like Rom manager its no more work than usual and its usually outdated
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] YeckeL:
Dirty rom comes with flash Gui it allows you to atleast switch them in the android os vs recovery?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] undergrad:
I'm rooted and unlocked and I'm currently running CM10.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] InflatedTitan:
Oh then your good to go bro
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 18th.abn:
Its remnants from a year or two ago. It was a must have app for rooted phones and was quite awesome in its day. So people upgrading from phones after a 2 year ownership, its just figured that they need it like before.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] undergrad:
Any idea the name of the app?

Thanks!

Google Play chooses the appropriate version of the game for your phone when you are BUYING. So I assume you're talking about warez.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ignition87:
Hi guys,

Today I tried to update my u8800 from aurora 4.1 to aurora 5 but somehow I bricked it. The screen just turns blue. Luckily I made a backup, however it seems that I accidentally wiped the wrong partition because volume[+] + power on doesn't get me into CMW anymore to restore my backup!

To make matters even worse, when I go into the pink screen and attach my phone over USB no drives show up in windows, so I can't replace the recovery.img with CMW.

Is there any way to fix this??? I am leaving on holiday tomorrow and was really hoping to use my phone for GPS and 3G internet :/
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ignition87:
I am just going to install the official gingerbread again using the update.app file, then root again and install CMW. Hope this works :D

Dear all,

i have been trying to install again the 2.3.7 but when i was wiping the data... i have wiped ALL the external SD as well.

Now what is happening is that when pressing vol + and power i get a blue screen. I dont have any other official version available.

What could i do? Please for your help

P.S. What is the update.app ? Where can i find it and how could i install it?
