Verizon is lousy as usual. One good thing, was just as with my S4, I paid extra for priority overnight. In the event my Note 3 ships tomorrow, I'll get it on the 9th. One day before :D. Well worth $14.99. It sucks that even horrible carriers like Sprint get this phone a week before Big Red. VZW is the largest carrier in the US, yet since they're CMDA we always have to wait extra for phones. Look at the HTC One, I waited almost 6 months for it, and of course Note 3 is a obviously better value at this time. Anyone still remember when the Sales Rep's would tell you the iPhone was overpriced, bad, and that Droid was better? Lol then in 2010 Verizon sold their sell to Apple. Now when I walk in a store, like when I bought my HTC One, VZW tries to sell you a iPhone.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] BA0714:
Just be happy it's coming earlier then later. Remember the note 2 came out at the end of November a month later then the rest of the carriers.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jiden77:
Exactly! I think the false expectations seen in other threads were taken as truth, with little proof of an early shipment to back up these claims. Just spend the week knowing you have an awesome device coming on arguably the best network.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] ttreed07:
I work for a Verizon Retailer and we just got word that the Note 3 is being shipped out tomorrow so we should hopefully see them on Wednesday. I expect everyone will be getting an email tomorrow that their preorders have been shipped.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] SgtGoldy:
So lets say it ships 10/10. That means it will get in our area on a Saturday. Well is it going to be delivered on a Saturday, or am I (we) stuck waiting till Monday?

Sidenote: Can i call Verizon and Upgrade to next day shipping without canceling my order and reordering?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] 92slammer:
i called last week to have mine overnighted and they told me they couldnt
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] b00mb00mchuck:
That's probably the most accurate so far... falls in line with what I've been hearing from my bud at the store too
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
i inquired to verizon internet orders email cause my work address is hwy and it is hy on verizon shipping info and they told me to contact fedex directly once shipping label has been printed and shipped. so you could probably contact fedex asap after label is printed and try to overnight. that is the only way i could think of it working
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] derrtydee:
Fed Ex does deliver on Saturdays, actually. ;)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] durtoffmysboulda:
we have a charge!

My credit card has been charged and Verizon status has been changed to "Completed" HALLELUJAH! :D
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Chris95GT:
Man shipping ON the 10th is dissapointing. I was told the 8th by my phone CSR when I pre-ordered mid Sept., which made sense with it saying BY the 10th. By means before, not on, in my book.

I'm charged with no tracking, says it will ship on the 10th.

They wouldn't let me ship it to work because of being a new account. That means I'll probably be waiting a few days afterwards for if to fail delivery at my house and get held at a FedEx location for pick up.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] b00mb00mchuck:
You can call fedex office and have them hold for pickup with your tracking number... saves you a day
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] physicsguymatt:
Sign up for Fedex Delivery manager. For $5 you can have it delivered to a different address or at a time convenient to you.

Fedex Delivery Manager
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] zepfloyd:
This doesn't always work. carriers can and often do specify a delivery date, or a do not deliver before date for shipping things like this. I have had that happen before twice. Once I tried to pick it up to no avail, and the other sat at the destination facility for 2 days because they would not deliver early. Despite living less than 20 miles from a main DC hub where they always ship from I never get my hopes up anymore.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] cthr3300:
Note 3 shipping

I just received shipping confirmation from FedEx that my Note 3 will be shipped out today and delivered on the 10th. Checked my bank account and Verizon has charged me for the phone.

I didn't get charged because I billed it to my account, but the order status screen changed like everyone else's.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] BA0714:
You guys need calm down. Most of us will get a tracking number by the end of today. Now go back to work. :)

Depends on who you ask :p
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] lowlt1:
note

I was in a rush during the glitch and for some reason my shipping address was wrong. They told me to call when I got a tracking number to change it. Well they charged me for it yesterday so I decided to call into fix it. The rep said he would get it fixed and said that it will ship out today and I will receive it Thursday. For what its worth.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] zwegan:
I have a tracking number now. Hoping I get it tomorrow on my day off!

I also just received shipping confirmation. My phone was picked up at 9:52 am this morning in Memphis TN, and is in route to me with an estimated delivery of 10/10 at 4:30 pm. :victory:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jdubsss:
Got my tracking number (YAY!!!). It's coming from West Chester, PA to NJ and I'll get it Thursday.

Really? Being in the immediate Philly metro mine is always West Chester too, odd.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dcoy82:
Ugh I've had a nightmare with mine. I saw no charge on my bank come up last night so I called bank this morning and they said they held the payment (Probably because I just paid my Verizon bill a few days ago), and that they could release it. When I called back to Verizon they stated that they pushed the payment back through and it was successful but my status still shows payment not received and my bank account still don't show where it's been debited. When I called Verizon back yet again he said everything went through since it got pushed back a day it'll ship out on the 10th and I'll receive on 14th. If I don't get a tracking number today I'll just cancel order and pickup in store Thursday. What a headache. :mad:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] derrtydee:
Jesus.... im so sorry. I hope it woeks out.

Everyone else with tracking numbers, have you received an email from Verizon or did you sign up with Fed ex?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jiden77:
So far I've only gotten tracking information from Fed Ex...I haven't gotten a single email from Verizon about my pre-order. I only started looking because I got an email alert from Chase that my card had been charged. I want to opt for the "pickup at Fex Ex facility" option, but so far I cannot choose that as of yet, since my shipment is only in the "Initiated" stage

How are you guys getting the tracking info? I ordered mine I store on the 9th and my card just got charged. How do I find the tracking number ???
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] b00mb00mchuck:
You ordered "in store"? Don't you have to pick it up at the store also? In that case it won't have a tracking number...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] billymaloney3:
No I preordered it on the first day and they said itd be shipped to me
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] toddnbrown:
FedEx is notorious for holding shipments until the amount of time that was specified by the shipper. In other words, if Verizon ships everything out 2-day shipping, your new phone could spend the night tomorrow night at your local FedEx office, and I don't think you can pick it up until the 2 days are up either.

Don't mean to rain on your parade, hopefully I am wrong. USPS and UPS don't pull that bullcrap. They deliver it as soon as possible.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
ordered on sept 9th and nothing. weird that later orders get tracking before us early orders
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] derrtydee:
do you still have your email confirmation from when you pre ordered?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Alix8821:
False

I also ordered in store, chose to have it sent to said store, and I have shipping confirmation & tracking info

(having it sent there, because i used another line's upgrade to get it, while keeping my Unlimited Data)

Anyone else had this problem? It would drop to 1% even when a sec ago it was at 66% life..reboot temp fix but only to drop back to 1%.. this is on the latest version Slimbean HD. Also i had this ROm working fine for the first few months without this error but for some reason its just now happening and becoming more frequent

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcommodo:
I am having the exact same problem. Anyone have any other options other than RMA? I would prefer not to RMA mine as I am not sure it is still in under warranty.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
They have a one year warranty. And they came out about a year ago. So unless you bought it when they first arrived, it probably is still in warranty.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uniconfis:
Are people still having this issue?

I purchased two 32gb nook hd + and installed Kitkat. Both have this issue where the battery suddenly drops to 1%. Then after a little bit it shuts down. Then I have to plug it in to get it back up. Once it boots up the battery shows where it is.

Now, if I reboot as soon as it drops to 1% (but not yet shutdown) it will show the accurate charge level for the battery.

Another note: This happens to the two 32GB nook HD+ we have. The two 16GB nook hd+ are not affected. All are using cyanogenmod.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PMikeP:
Out of curiosity, are you charging both the 32GB and the 16 GB units similarly? That is, do you charge them all every day (whether they need it or not) or do you wait on all of them to get to 15%, etc.?

Current conventional wisdom is that it's better to top off a Li-ion battery frequently than to let it discharge a lot and then charge it back up. So it'd be interesting to know what charging schedule those who are having this 1% problem are having.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Simonna:
Are you still feeling happy with that device? What would be your pros and cons of this device? For how much time you're thinking to keep it?

My pros:

Good camera quality

Quite fast (only Sammy's sh*ts makes it slow :rolleyes:

Big devs support

Good audio quality

Cons:

Very,very boring UI but luckily we can customize it :p

It's very hard to use it with one hand, and sometimes I am feeling too lazy to use it with two hands :rolleyes:

Design looks cheap

Hardware buttons could be more sensitive

Missing camera button

Power button might stuck, so I am avoiding to use as often as possible:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Cons

Lack of Exynos sources - Devs have hard time with AOSP

Touchwiz UI is childish - Looks like something from "The Early Learning Centre"

Casing chips easily and cracks with no effort

Poor multi tasking in Touchwiz roms.

Quicky dated, aesthetically

SDS

Poor warranty handling in the above case

Dodgy EFS problems

Camera not great with AOSP roms. Toss up between performance and UI vs camera.

Pros

Nice thin "slate" feel in the hand

Not Pink in colour

Still reasonably quick with AOSP
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Negative for me is lack of true development .

Cut and paste sammy roms .#

Same old same old Android roms .

Lack of fluidity in much of the design and apps its still nowhere near as user friendly as it could be .

SDS and poor warranty from Samsung is not a recommend and likewise the multiple modems .

Samsung / network upgrade path is far to complicated .

Kies is a bad piece of software .

Saying that i shall keep until a significantly better phone forces me to change or even go back to non smart for the phone part .

Dumb phone + 7inch Tablet + 12inch Tablet for home use .
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godcaronte:
Well, to be honests i'm pretty happy with my S3.

Only cons i can find is the really, really poor (for a 700 euros device) materials quality.

The UI is quite user friendly (in my opinion), well it suffer some lag here and there but (for me) it's really rare (and i'm on no root, stock device).

Plus we will get soon the 4.3 upgrade, and here we will see more improvements for our "baby"... most of all the REAL multicore support, that must "kill" once and for all the lags.

The camera is so good (i'm not a photographer or photo professional user), i find the pictures i snap of good quality and with sammy apps i can modify them however i like. I repeat, i'm not a pro but i love to take a huge number of picture when i'm around with my friends or girl, and my S3 is the best for that job (i don't have to carry around extra weight as other cameras).

There comes now another pro that most of other devices haven't: external SD card.

That's something that any device must have in 2013 becouse of the better cameras (that mean huge dimension for each snapped pic), "consolle like" games (someone is 1-2gb ....) etc. etc....

Now for the "comparison" with a newer phone, my girl have a S4 and i tell you i would never chenge my S3 for it or ever for a HTC one (that anyone is crazy for at the moment)... don't get me wrong, S4 and HTC One are really great devices, but i find useless to drain out your poket of all your moneys, for a slightly better upgrade... Plus with 4.3, S3 will get a lot of S4 features too.

I'll buy a new phone when an amazing Nexus/Galaxy S will be released, but it must be something that will make me really "WOW".
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beeeto:
Is that really true?

I feel both AOSP and Samsung based roms equally smooth... (Slimed Samsung roms of course)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Touchwiz ROMs lag instead of managing memory correctly in my experience. Multi Tasking is much smoother on AOSP

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sebastel23:
with the newest omni 4.4 nightly, i'm quite OK with the hardware.

however, i do not like samsung's "we are the centre of the world" behaviour, so most probably it will be my last samsung phone. on the other hand, other producers seem to act similarly (think of the sony z1 camera/unlocked desaster, which i do not expect to get fixed in reasonable time)...

This is the copy...

It is not so clear about the APN,but this will connect via your default internet connection,that you're using on the go(The APN is described there):

1.Pair your Himalaya with a PC.

2.Start the Wireless Modem app.and choose Bluetooth. Then tap to Start button. Your device must be in Discoverable mode!

3.Now in computer click to the 'My Bluetooth Places' icon on the desktop.

4.Open the connected Himalaya and click to the SSA service.

5.Now the connection window will appeared. Choose the *99# as a dialed number and click to Dial.

That's it.
[G2 General] tiguy99:
Last week I called 20 stores in the Chicagoland area before the 9/25/13 launch. 18 had the black G2s but none had white. I was told to order the white G2 from Tmobile directly. Paid overnight shipping and was good to go...

Fast forward to 5 days later. No phone....just 4 different Tmobile reps stating they're not sure why my order says "Still Processing"

Enter today...this morning, the rep was kind to refund my ovedrnight shipping & uttered the dreadful words...

Your phone is officially on back order!

So if you have Tmobile & have yourself a white G2...consider yourself lucky. They're officially sold out as of today with no ETA on when they'll arrive again.

IF you happen to know of a store in Chicago that has one, please let me know. I'll happily swing by this afternoon & grab it

Hello everyone,

I'm feeling like I'm spamming the forum, but here's another thread of me... I was just going through some random XDA stuff, and ways to improve my phone. And I found this(PurePerformances Gold Edition): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2360670

I've read all kinds of information about this, read the risks etc. And I want it! It also has a stock version available, so I was very happy! So I downloaded and... didn't know what to do. The post says ''flash the files''.

My question is: how do I do this? Copy the files to my phone? Use a special program? I've read the post completely and couldn't find anything!

If you could help me out? I'm kinda feeling a noob right now(perhaps I am :p). I have had a Samsung, and I know how to use ODIN and I know how to flash with Androxyde's Flashtool. Most of the time I know what I'm doing!
