I put $300 down and did the $20 a month deal they have. But I'm going to pay $200 on Monday. And then I'll pay the remaining $200 off probably next month. No upgrade fee, no migration fee, and no mail in rebate for being a customer for 12 years. First time they've ever waived all those off.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Warrior1975:
Best $700 I ever spent!! But I came from an S3 not N4.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:
I picked up the note 10.1.

Note tablet and nexus 4 for 780 bucks.

Although I am interested in the note 2, just trying to not make our such a huge hit on my pocket. 3 months until an upgrade, I figure I can get a note 3 when it comes out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Warrior1975:
Thats a great deal. I'm wanting a note tablet, especially since I bought the note phone.

G●Note~2 {Jedi X5}
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:
ROFL, I'm the exact opposite, wanting the phone since I got the tablet.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Onemoa:
I wouldn't wait the Note 2 is still a brand new device. Released only a few months ago. If you sit and wait for every new phone that's released you're going to always be waiting for a new phone.

The S3 is only half a year old and the S4 is coming out in a few months then the Note 3 a few months after that.

Belive me go check out the Note 2 you will not be able to look back. You can also talk to T-mobile customer royalty and if you can talk them into it you can get you're upgrade right away and a good deal on the Note 2. But it all depends on who you talk to. Most of the time they will try to keep you a happy customer and will make a deal with you. If you're not getting anywhere tell them Thank you and hang up, call back and try again. It's very rare you will get connected to the same outlet.

The Note 2 is just awesome in every way. Battery life, amazing screen quality and size. I love the slow motion video feature. It's the best phone you're going to find even when the S4 comes out. Like I said, if you are always going to want the big new thing you're going to be buying a new phone every 6 months or so. If the Note 3 is going to be so much more amazing then the Note 2 it will be worth paying full price for anyway. But the Note 2 has enough features it will be able to keep up with the competition as it will also get Key Lime Pie.

All I know is this phone will last a two year agreement. It will also be getting Key Lime Pie. Ask anyone that owns one. They love there Note 2. I know I love mine, I've never been able to speak so highly of a phone. I never thought I would want to, haha.

Anyway just go play with one. It will blow your mind. If it doesn't then you're hard to please lol.

---------- Post added at 10:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:16 PM ----------

The Note 3 will not be released anytime soon. The Note 2 just came out a few months ago. It will be later this year. The Note 2 is still the next big thing and will be for a long while. Even after the Note 3 it will still be a great phone just as it is now.

I like to keep up with tech news and rumors but geez. Kinda crazy even taking about waiting for the Note 3 when we have the next big thing right in front of us.

Mind as well start taking about buying the Note 4. That's something I'll be getting for sure lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:
Biggest issue for me is the inability to tether my tablet without rooting. Having the note 10 makes me appreciate the advancement of touch whiz to be usable instead of a detriment. Also, I got super spoiled with wireless charging on the nexus 4, hard to go back after using it.

Unfortunately, the n4 is a hell of a phone for $350. $500-$600 I can stomach, but $700 is a little to much. Especially if there is only 1 color available in store.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dan_tm:
Back in November they did a $200 off promotion, bringing the cost of the phone down to $500. I imagine they'll do something like that again at some point, but I have no idea when. If I were running T-Mo, I'd probably do it about a month before the S4 was due out.

I had been a bit on the fence about upgrading, but just $150 more than I would have spent on a N4 made it an easy decision for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Hoezack:
S4 will be presented at Samsung unpacked 2013 on May the 3rd, and will be released in europe first on June 7th and then in the united states on July 5th. Note 3 Will be launched on September or October.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] elouisyoung:
nope

no, standard product cycle dictates we won't see note 3 until q4.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:
In battling apple, samsung no longer seems to follow the standard cycle.

The GS maybe, but they seem to be willing to break the mold with the note.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:
Pulled the trigger on the note 2 today. Got it white, which Tmobile didn't have in stock. I figure I can use an upgrade later for the 3.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhilipTD:
Can I quote you on that?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] PhxDroid86:
You have to either pay the 20/mo or of you want to pay it off, then the remaining balance has to be paid at once (cant do 200 here and 100 there, etc... just a fyi)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] jbreeze228:
Thank you for letting me no that bud! Had no idea. First time ever doing the monthly payment thing. Guess I'll wait until next month to pay it all at once.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Onemoa:
Wireless charging is here for the Note 2. Just that Samsung has not released here own back plate and charging Mat yet. I'm pretty sure we will see that soon though most likely a little after the S4 is released since Samsung is using wireless charging as a marketing scam I mean tool. So uninformed people will go Oh wow the s4 has a wireless charging accessory.

So I'm thinking a few weeks after that they will release a backplate for our phone and the mat will work with the s3, s4 and Note 2.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Zombtastic:
While I love to see them upgrading, and the Note 3 sounds like a BEAST. I just hate that they're doing it so quickly. I'm gonna be broke trying to keep up with this. Lol.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] bipoler:
I'm going to hold of until the note four,I highly doubt the next iteration feature set will justify cost for a totally new device, wireless charging, key lime, "improved s pen," larger screen , nice but I rather hold off not worth it since I have the note two already, by then I'll want a new device and the four will be prime
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] KillaHurtz:
For the people saying "I don't know why they are coming out so quick!" are obviously not familiar with the Galaxy S line. There is a new version every year. kwiterbycthin if you can't afford it and take the backseat while those of us that work to afford our vices are test driving the future :D

And FYI there is already wireless charging battery doors available on eBay that work with palm wireless charging mats.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:
I thought the charging pins on the Tmobile version don't work? , I.e. missing a chip or something?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tongueman87:
Point blank note 2 is epic. I have never been completely satisfied with any device until this phablet was in my hands. So what if the note 3 comes out with the devs we have it will run just as good. A upgrade 2 years from now I will be fine cause its just a awesome device good battery life nice screen insane when it comes to accuracy and is on point with no lag even when power save mode is on and proccessor power is reduced. Its such a great device that I bought two. You wont be dissapointed and imo its a hell of alot better than s3 an dont get started on the iphone subject lmao 300 extra for a .5 or smaller screen with same boring ass ios and the screen is narrower than the 4. Imo if you still have doubts about the note 2 go get one if you can cause playing with it for a few in a srore doesnt justify having it for a few days. You still have 14 day grace period:D

Long post I know but this is the best device I have ever had. An I am still running stock os with no root usually first 2 hrs of having a device its rooted and custom rom running. Just a insite of what I have is every new htc released in the past 3 yrs and every galaxy device since the galaxy s 4g
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mingkee:
Frankly, I have no plan to upgrade to any phone in 2013 and probably the first half of 2014 after getting Note 2. The hardware itself is good enough for the next two years.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] the12nv:
I also agree that hands down this is by far the best phone out and the best phone that I have owned. The response that I get from this phone is unmatched. Very fluid movement, kick ass battery life, dope screen clarity, and it is just big enough to be useable, without looking like a have a small tablet to my ear. A couple of you have mentioned that this will last at least 2 years and I would have to agree. For the first time since my HTC Hero, I could gladly own this phone till upgrade. Samsung is killing it right now! Love this damn phone!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] SMARTPHONEPC:
I do look forward to checking out the Note3 in person+reviews & get it if I like what I see. I hope there truly will be a 64GB internal storage option for the US market with the expected better screen-camera & improved video effects. I would really appreciate slow motion in full HD (like fast motion) to include audio capture which should be possible with greater storage-processor. I'd also love a compact projector connection option but won't hold my breath on that for the Note3 even if Samsung has had two weaker spec Beam smartphones with a built-in projector..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:
you gotta admit that you want a galaxy beam just for that purpose, even as a toy.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Supermighty:
LG confirms 5.5-inch 1080p display for Korean Optimus G Pro

I seriously doubt that Samsung won't release a >5.5" 1080p phone soon. Even if it's just in Korea. To let this release from LG go un-matched would be a slap in the face. Eight months is just too long for them to wait for a >5.5" 1080p phone with this on the market.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tongueman87:
Oh how much I love this phone
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:
If only my n4 had this type of battery life.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tongueman87:
Last one its just surprising how the battery life is so much better than the gs2 with the specs this thing has
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Supermighty:
Or maybe Samsung doesn't care about a spec arms race.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:

On topic, I'm torn between getting a Note 2 now or holding off for a 3. I really think Ill just get the 2 now, then sell it for a profit in Latin America when the 3 launches.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] pewterwest:
I don't believe the note 3 will come out until end of this year. I think thats the normal schedule is the "s" comes out in the first part of the year and note comes out later.

Thats a great idea, make you some money off it and grab the new when it comes out.:good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:
from

http://www.thefullsignal.com/news/1...cs_and_features_outed_in_nexus_6_concept.html

interesting, since the diagonal dimension of the note 2 is roughly 6.3 inches, you can assume that the screen would be roughly as wide and the current note 2 itself and maybe a quarter inch taller, I estimate the note 3 to be 1/4" wider and 1/2 taller than the current version. They better weigh down the bottom right corner of the phone, cause this current one is barely feasible in my hands
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mike2518:
Juicy tidbits for sure, but let's hope the physical size doesn't get any bigger
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:
They are cutting the bezel down to minimum, but it still will be bigger.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fix-this!:
id say the soonest the note 3 will ship is oct-nov.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:
After much deliberation, is have to agree. Mainly because of the need to perfect the 8 core chip and get it ready for mass production.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Onemoa:
No. The T-mobile Note 2 works with wireless charging. I really don't think it's all that great though. You get a faster charge using the micro usb port. But when Samsung does release the back plate for the Note 2 I might give it a try. You can buy wireless charging cards that fit right into your Note 2 on eBay for about 20 bucks but I'm going to wait for the official back plate and mat if I'm going to do it at all.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] :
are you sure those wireless charging cards work on the tmobile version? because i want to buy one but if they dont work ill be wasting 20$
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheEyes:
Gotta agree with all the people saying that this phone is going to last 2+ years. This phone is already just on the edge of awkward to use, especially one-handed; I almost dropped it twice this weekend. I couldn't imagine anything even a fraction of an inch bigger.

No; I think the next killer app for me will be when they take the foldable screen concept and build roll-out tablets into pocket-sized cell phones. Crazy thing is, that's probably less than five years away at this point!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] whatsitsnamenow:
I remember that show. The communicator is call "global". It has the ability to communicate with the mothership orbiting above our planet iirc. Nice
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] TheEyes:
Well yeah, the thing's sure big enough to be a frickin' sat phone. I mean just look at it! :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dean0505:
it won`t be out this soon
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:
Not without a hardware hack. Don't waste your time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] williamrazmy:
There's never a good time to buy a cell phone I think. There's always going to be a new phone coming out in a few months. I say just go for it and enjoy whatever you get!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] t3dpott3r:
I purchased my note 2 few months ago on the hopes it would last me 2 years. After finding out about the new S4 and its features that didn't seem realistic. But I just heard that all of the upgrades on the S4 like auto scrolling and touchless gestures ect. are software upgrades "not" hardware.

This gives me hope that they can be added to my phone via custom ROMs and that my phone actually has a chance to last that long :D

if thats true then I would say get the note 2 & Save your money ......LOL
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrbkkt1:
The one true upgrade that made the difference to me was not having to worry about battery life.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dandn0ten:
even if note 3 comes out and we already had note 2 i think we would just skip it for the note 4

[Samsung Infuse 4G] zpzp96:
Pretty strange problem you got right there.

I never had those problems, but I know that iPhone series have that problem sometimes. Especially old ones.

Mine is just working like a charm.

You should try to flash beanstalk.

Then test the mic, if it's not working as it should, that could be hardware defect.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] captivated1971:
there is no soluyion to this problem ,unfortunatly. other than try flashing a different modem.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] glenrocks:
flashing another model?

Volume does seem low even with beanstalk....how do you flash different modem?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
if you want to try a different modem, check out the development thread for modems

if you want to see if its the phone mic, try a voice recording..if the recorded sound is low, it may be the mic port or inside the phone.

open the phone and clean out the ports and connectors

instructions to open is on youtube..look for infuse screen replacement

I'm going round in circles, trying to work out what I'm doing wrong.

I have hboot 0.43, and a fastboot getvar-main gives me 1.26.707.4

I presently am rooted etc and want to upgrade to JB. I have a nandroid backup of my stock rom. Hboot 0.43 means I cannot upgrade to JB hboot directly.

I restored the backup, flash the boot image from the backup, erase the cache and then flashed the stock recovery (1.29). Reboot. so far so good.

When the phone reboots it tells me there is a system update to 1.28.707.10 (31.82MB). I tell it to download and it says it will.

The problem is the speed. It's been going about 20 minutes so far and it has downloaded 0.15MB!! That's it.

I would try another method, but I can't find an RUU for my phone.

Any help appreciated.
[HTC One X] Alex240188:
Do fastboot oem readcid

Let us know what cid you have
[HTC One X] liquidguru:
Sorry, forgot to add that.

I have HTC_044
[HTC One X] Alex240188:
give me a couple of minutes, il just double check which is the correct one and drop it into my FTP server.

il PM you with connection details

OK i have sorted the file you need, details have been sent in a PM.

that is the Jellybean RUU for your CID.

make sure you have a well charged battery

relock your bootloader then run that on your PC and it will bump you all the way up to stock Jellybean

Ok, no luck.

Relocked bootloader, no probs.

When I run the RUU it start ok, but when it gets to updating the signature I get:

ERROR [132]: SIGNATURE ERROR

Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again

So, what to do next?
[HTC One X] audahadi:
Did u update your bootloader? U have same cid as me... Your bootloader should show 1.36...then you can flash JB ruu...
[HTC One X] Alex240188:
could be a bad download, did notice a few disconnects as you was downloading it from me.

found another link here

http://androidfiles.org/ruu/securek...Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_296434_signed.exe

100% that its the correct RUU for your device

running the RUU on HBOOT 0.43 should automatically update the HBOOT to 1.36, but by the sounds of it. He isnt getting that far

usually the signature fail is either because

1. Wrong RUU

2. Bootloader Still Unlocked

3. Corrupt Download
[HTC One X] liquidguru:
I don't think there is anything wrong with the download. I use a download manager, so it can handle disconnects.

Hboot still says 0.43

I think the problem may be that I need to update to an intermediate hboot first. So I need an RUU for Hboot 1.26 or something. Then from there I can update my hboot

I'm going to try the 1.28.707.10 RUU
[HTC One X] Alex240188:
im not too sure on that one.

the RUU updates your HBOOT for you

but if you want to try it there is a thread here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1957376

which contains 1.36 HBOOT's which you can flash

lock bootloader

download the one for your phone from thread above (see your CID HTC__044 - x.xx.707.x - Asia WWE (World Wide English))

rename to firmware.zip

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip firmware.zip

then you can try the RUU again
[HTC One X] audahadi:
Thanks..didn't notice that as before I only update bootloader then straight to custom rom..but worth a try

That did it i think! Success!! MIUI now booting.

[HTC One X] usmanyo:
going from Hboot 0.43 to 1.36 directly

Hi people, im not too familiar with the hboot part therefore wanted to ask a few questions before trying:

1. is it possible to upgrade directly from 0.43 to 1.36 with the RUU for tmob-005 from the mentioned website or do i need to do it stagewise?

2. will it this process erase the data on my SDCARD?

a quick and accurate response shall be greatly appreciated!! :good:
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
1. no

2. not sure but go with the worst case scenario and back it up before !
[HTC One X] usmanyo:
at 1. you said "no", as in it cant be done directly?
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
No it cant be done directly .... You got that right, the step to a JB hboot s to high !

In your case (from such a low hboot) it need to be done in steps

And about the direct firmware flash im not certain if it works directly but i would not risk it. There is for sure a RUU that fits your hboot. So I would go for safe and install a ruu to get back to stock and then officially ota all the way up to JB !
[HTC One X] liquidguru:
Just flash the correct hboot from the post that bagofcrap24 linked to : http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1957376

It doesn't erase your data and is a lot easier than trying to find the correct RUU and flashing that.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
Your opinion ;) depends completely how familiar the person is with fastboot and commands :thumbup:

And btw, for such a low hboot there is definitely a RUU available
