Ok that's what I will do. Thanks guys! wife gonna kill me when she sees this new phone. She still has the S3 but thats what she wanted.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] sublimaze:
If you REALLY want a Note 3 now, I will sell you mine with a Ghost Armor screen protector on it, plus a Spigen Neo Hybrid black & silver case. I should have returned mine when I had the chance but I was too lazy :banghead:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
how much? LOL
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] mjlewis0102:
Thanks for the offer, but when I say now, I mean, can't wait for shipping, now. I mean, wait in line in front of an Apple store for hours to get a piece of crap phone, now.

Plus i will return for the DE when it arrives.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
just make sure you have enough money to buy a verizon note 3 and developer one. because when you return the verizon one it takes a few days for money to be returned
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] mjlewis0102:
even when paying cash?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
no idea. i paid with debit card and it took 2 days to have my money show back in account.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] TechBSwift:
If you pay with cash, they can and will give you the cash back only if they have it available in store. I returned a couple phones and both situations occurred
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] tgyberg:
Any time now Samverizonsung.. sell us the DE you dbags!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] YoungSkeezy:
called 3 Verizon stores. None of them have even heard of the developer edition.

If it is coming out, it's not going to be today lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
verizon wont have it buddy only samsung.com
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Tidefan13:
I paid full retail with cash and the vzw store did not have the money on the spot to pay me, I was like 30 dollars short so I added that to my debit card and that went back in the next day. There sending me a check for the rest, but I hope it gets here b4 the DE comes out. I returned the phone on the 24th, my luck it won't be here b4 the DE :( Have u ever had to have them send u a check? If so how long did it take

Roll Tide!!!!!

Samsung Messing with my MIND!!!

I am on the Verizon Note 3 Developer Edition page on SamsungUSA.com & it says shop on it. YET when I click on it there is NOTHING in the cart.

WHY IS SAMSUNG MESSING WITH MY MIND?!? Damn Samsung JUST take my money........ lol :eek:

Look at this BOGUSNESS lol:

http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SM-N900VMKEVZW?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] TechBSwift:
Yes they sent me a check and it can take up to 14 days, I've also have them give me cash back in store in the amount of $800+. It all depends if they have cash on hand, my suggestion would be to return the phone before closing, that gives them more time to collect money from customers throughout the day

It's been this way for days...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] alexp1289:
I wish we could just get a release date this is bull****.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
I agree it's craziness. Don't have the shop button on if it isn't soon and put coming soon back

Has anyone try to order it on the phone?

What are the CRs saying?

thanks
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] suzook:
Sorry guys...I've said it a few times....December release.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Sources or speculation?

Its only November 1st. Ill give it a week (like others have said) and see. If it doesn't go live then ill consider taking my listing off swappa. (if it hasnt sold by then)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Epic 4g:
Hey at this point anything is better than NOTHING. :good:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] inco9nito99:
Forgive my blindness, but where do you see a "SHOP" button for the DE Note 3 for Verizon? I clicked the link ^^ and see nothing.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Google samsung galaxy note 3 developer edition and click the first link then hit shop
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
They act like the never heard of it and call Verizon
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Marvelicious75:
Meh, I just don't buy that they would set up the page with a shop button, just to let it sit for another month. We aren't even 30 days out from the original release yet.

Edit: I see the non-dev version comes out in pink on the 11th - I'm not anxious to wait another ten days, but if they're releasing one product that day...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Jolle_1:
Seems to depend on the browser you are using. From my phone I can't see the button if I use Chrome, if I use stock android browser the button is there
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Use a laptop / pc and you will seee
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Tidefan13:
Well the check came in today, now just waiting for the buy button to be there

Roll Tide!!!!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] mjlewis0102:
OK I'm about to make that pur base. Black Note 3 come to me!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] inco9nito99:
Yup, Chrome on my Macbook Pro didn't show up, using Safari on the other hand, worked.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Tidefan13:
Why don't they just keep the coming soon up, instead of it off and it kinda confusing as if its available. As others have said I hit the shop button and it takes me to my cart but nothings in it. I wish they would hurry, my DNA isn't cutting it after having the note 3, speed and for sure battery life. This is torture. ;)

Roll Tide!!!!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] tgyberg:
Would you guys still get the DE if it only came in pink? :P
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] berkel:
800 number

I called the 800 number about the shopping cart not working, she checked, and told me they would call back in 3 hours. They did call me back and said they were resolving issues with the cart and would call me back today or tomorrow. I'll keep you posted.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Tidefan13:
Just talked to a Sammy rep and she said its available and that there having technical problems and that it want pop up on there coms either, she said she has made the managers aware and she said she can't promise that itll be fixed tonight but that it could be tomm. She took my name and number and is gonna call me as soon it works on there coms. She'll call and I can order, but It'll probably be fixed and I would have ordered it b4 she calls

Roll Tide!!!!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Thepooch:
Amazing an electronics and communications behemoth with technical issues :p
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keennay:
It's Friday, all the web designers have gone home...

I just gave them a call. Everyone give them a call so the issue can be properly escalated.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jmichaels1982:
Can we post the 800 number with the proper extensions dials son we can maximize the ease and thus volume of calls ?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keennay:
The rep told me after a bit of investigation that it's actually not available and won't be till probably the end of this month, which differs from what Tidefan13's rep told him.

The 800 number is on Samsung's shopping cart page. No need for an extension number, just stay on the line:

https://mobile.samsung.com/accessor...amsung.com//us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories

800-757-0280
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jmichaels1982:
Yep i got the same response . should be in by the end of this month . :mad:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Tidefan13:
Really? Man I hope your reps wrong. Lol. Itll probably be my rep thats wrong. It has on there page next to the device, be the first to write a review. How can different reps not be on the same page? Do they not tell them when stuff will be available? For when customers call and ask.

Roll Tide!!!!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] harosxcomp170:
I called and she said she will call me as soon as it gets figured out. She said it probably wont be fixed until Monday though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Tidefan13:
Roll Tide!!!!!

Ahh delete. Wrong button
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] stargzrr11:
I see it this way:

Galaxy S4:

Regular Release - May 23rd

Developer Release - June 25th

5 weeks difference

Galaxy Note 3:

Regular Release - October 10th

Developer Release - November 14th??

So... I'm guessing about another two weeks.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] :
Calm your tits :)

Phone is coming.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
Phone is coming but when????
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Adrozz07:
Just called myself. Girl stated that they are aware that people are trying to buy it and it's showing up zeroed out in the shopping cart. It's not an intentional display status and that it should be resolved by Monday. The item is ready to sell. That's what I was told.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Marvelicious75:
I just called and they told me that they actually sold out within minutes of offering the phone, and more will be available in about 6 weeks.

OK, not really, I just figured we needed one more conflicting story on here to make it really confusing. :laugh:

I'm just going to periodically keep hitting the button like a rat after a food pellet...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jmichaels1982:
this is why

aaannnnnndddd here is another reason to stick to dev. edition

http://www.xda-developers.com/android/google-taking-aim-at-device-modders-in-android-4-4-kitkat/
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] SeanPlunk:
Yep. I'm sure the talented devs will still figure out ways around some of this, but Developer Editions definitely seem to be the best way to go.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
That would hold true I guess in being that they told me first of November or maybe first week I guess Monday would be first full week of November. Hopefully that is right cause I want to hold my note 3 again lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] alexp1289:
We should all keep calling the 1-800 number so that they know that the phone is very popular and everybody wants it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] kimdoocheol:
I'm sure there will be talented devs to get around it too, but the question is how long will it take?

I would've bought the N3 the first day it came out until I got wind of this.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Sweet! I pretty much just sold my Note 3 on swappa! Perfect timing if it gets fixed soon!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dooku77:
Get fixed? Is it broken?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
No no no. I meant the cart button on samsungs webiste.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dooku77:
LOL OK. I almost bought it a few minutes ago. I'm afraid to pull the trigger right now.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Haha once the dev edition goes up ill be buying
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dooku77:
Your note 3. I stalk swappa all day.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] blandreth94:
Hey guys, I pretty much just been floating around xda without getting into too much, really anything since I stopped using my OG Incredible, but with some URL manipulation, u got to this page on Sammy's website. Don't know it it helps at all, but might be something to keep an eye on...

http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SM-N900VMKEVZW-buy
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
I would suggest the opposite. Keeping it quiet so not a whole lot of people buy asap lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Oh haha that was you. Well ya know I'm negotiable so just hmu on there
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] BeansTown106:
they need to fix this ****! i wantz my note 3 back :(
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Tidefan13:
What's the name of that site where u create a avatar like u got, I used it along time ago but can't remember the name of it

Roll Tide!!!!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] droidstyle:
I contacted samsung yesterday and they told me you can not buy the dev edition from them lol...they gave me a number to verizon support to purchase but i have not called it yet.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
i know they tell me that everytime too. then i tell them to check developer s4 on their website and hit shop and they are like that is strange lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Marvelicious75:
At the moment, it appears they are right!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] harosxcomp170:
Yay! I just got my Urban Armor phone case in the mail today! Too bad I don't have a phone to put in it! Hurry up Verizon! I sold my Note 3 more than a week ago! Now I need my Developer Edition! Now!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] alexp1289:
I'm in the same boat I have everything I need even the case just need the phone and I'll be all set. The only other thing that's on my wishlist for the developer edition is Cyanogenmod :D
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Tidefan13:
Same, I got my neo hybrid but no phone. They need to hurry up :)

Roll Tide!!!!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jmichaels1982:
Hmmm i'm starting to think that Glas Tr is not a good idea with sedio active combo . BTW I stare at my accessories with tears also .
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] droidstyle:
I called verizon and they told me I have to order it from Samsung. I called Samsung and that rep said I have to order it from them , but the sales department is closed till monday so I have to call back then. Lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Tidefan13:
Hopefully Monday it'll be out or fixed or whatever there deal is.

Roll Tide!!!!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Thepooch:
I chatted with verizon online the claim was that the device they have been selling for the past month has an unlocked bootloader. I don't believe this is the case so I continued to press my point with the tech again saying its unlocked and Samsung slipped that feature in a month ago without their IT group or the company knowing. All and all I still disagree, the tech said order it and if it's not as he claimed return it within 14 days sounds like a slippery banana peel to me. He claimed the documentation that he has verifies that it is indeed unlocked but was unable to produce this documentation so I could view it. :p
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Just sold my note 3! Bring on the developer edition!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] LillieBennett:
I wonder if the DE will have the dreaded Knox flag and we all simply thumb our nose at it!

Lillie via LG Spectrum (waiting for N3 DE) & tapatalk
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] chefb:
both....90 days a knox reset will be posted.... it's been three weeks and Verizon has all types up of skit!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
What?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Marvelicious75:
You should seek medical attention, I think you may have a concussion!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
The de will have Knox but supposedly unlocked boot loader won't trip it
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] sublimaze:
I used the Verizon chat and I must have got the same rep. He said the retail Note 3 *is* unlockable via software. But that feature won't be available until Verizon pushes the N3 KitKat update in 2014, along with the release of the Verizon Nexus 5/6.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dooku77:
Who knows what those clowns know. Mostly nothing. Interesting about the nexus though.

---------- Post added at 09:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:15 AM ----------

Just read that root de LA Vega has been retired. What other methods are there for root now?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] sublimaze:
I was kidding lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] droidstyle:
The rep was most likely talking about being carrier unlocked to use on other networks.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dooku77:
Lol. That was my one hope after all the terrible news about the n3 is that we would at least get nexus 5. Thanks for tricking me first thing in the morning :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Brandonrz:
Kingo root app, roots any phone without wiping data. It's a fairly new methood, there is already a few people on the Verizon note 3 that have had success. Google kingo root.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] njfoses:
I used kingo, worked fine.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Brandonrz:
I wish it came out sooner, so I didn't have to wipe. Beggers can't be choosers.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] njfoses:
Thats exactly why i waited. Really wanted to avoid wiping my device if i could. With designgears closing all his root threads, kingo will be the way to go.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] chefb:
no it was booze sorry guys... but i ment what I posted. Lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Haha yeah we just waited for your interpreter to come by and translate :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] boynamedstacy:
Have you tried using Exposed to remove the custom logo on boot? It is not working for me
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Brandonrz:
Worked for me.

It's under security hacks, try unchecking and check it again.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dooku77:
Is anyone using the store bought version and deciding to keep it now that there's root?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Nope. I like root but i shouldn't have to put up with not having an unlocked bootloader. No one should. Root is great, but being forced to use one type of OS is ridiculous.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] alexp1289:
The reason I'm getting a developer edition is because all it takes is one system update and you can lose root and all of your perks that come along with it. Plus if I don't pay full price for a phone I will lose my unlimited data and I'll get screwed with all of the bull**** from Verizon.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] njfoses:
Worked for me. Had to reboot 2 times i think for it to change.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Just got my gs3 booted up and i am not looking forward to using it while i wait. Tiny screen :(
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
Haha I know man I've been on HTC one for weeks!! :(

Can tomorrow be the day???
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] billymaloney3:
wait so is the Dev edition out or..?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Tidefan13:
Well the rep I spoke to said yeah but there coms are having a problem where its not putting it in the shopping cart to actually order it. But others have been told different things, so who knows

Roll Tide!!!!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] billymaloney3:
from Verizon or Samsung?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Tidefan13:
Sammy, vzw don't sell them

Roll Tide!!!!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] njfoses:
No, and nobody has any clue when it actually will be available. Could be tomorrow or six months from now.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Tidefan13:
Let's hope its not the latter. Lol

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Skizzy034:
What's with everything being retired? Loki was retired also and probably could have been made to work if not.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dooku77:
I'm surprised the other root methods popped up so quickly

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
why is this not live yet?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jmichaels1982:
I think its becoming more evident that its either the end of this month or December even . one thing I have learned about verizon and their release dates is that it's never good news . take the worst case scenario out of all the rumors , add two more weeks and there you have it .

ask not what your developer can do for you, ask what you can do for your developer.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
well i wish we had a date im about ready to buy a regular note 3 again lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] mjlewis0102:
I am about to get the regular one myself. I still didn't get the GN3 yet because the store wanted to charge me an extra $100 for profit. The whole point of me not ordering it online is because I didn't want to wait. Looks like waiting is inevitable.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
I dont know what to do. if it is going to be december i would buy one. if it was only another week i would wait
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Adrozz07:
The girl on the phone at Samsung just took my name and number saying that they hope to have it available for purchase today. She said there are others she will be calling as well.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
i better call then asap
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
I was just told should be working today was supposed to be or sale last week. she said she can not order via phone has to be done online with the developer form filled out so f5 all day guys!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] tgyberg:
I've already been doing that! :D
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
i have been too all morning!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] abe_cedar:
call samsung

I am trying to call samsung.I am on hold for 20 min now. Is this normal?

I am assuming that they want to make more money..
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
yes i was on hold for close to 10 mins before i got to talk to anybody
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] BeansTown106:
this is the stupidest wait ever.. cuz some DUMB@$$ fudged the link to the device and shopping cart lol..
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] bajasur:
What are you guys thinking a reasonable price for a mint retail note 3 is? Thanks in advance!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
$550-$600?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] cam30era:
What developer form?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
I sold mine for 575.

On another note i hope its soon! This gs3 screen is just killing me. And the battery is no fun :( already down to 76 percent with a only 2 hours on
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] BeansTown106:
there going between 620$-680$ on swappa http://swappa.com/buy/samsung-galaxy-note-3-verizon

id assume you put it up for 600 it would sell instantly as there is only 5 on there
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] bajasur:
I'll try for $600 on swappa and craigslist. Not willing to go much lower than that unfortunately..
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] BeansTown106:
gs3 isnt that bad :P lol i was using it for a cpl days, now im on the s4 running cm 10.2 its actually pretty stable
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Im running your latest build. Its super stable just miss my big screen :)

yes! PayPal transfered my money over from my swappa sale. Come on Samsung i need that asap
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] BeansTown106:
i hear ya the 1080p is hard to switch from :(
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
I miss how much room i had to move my fingers around. I feel like I'm using a midget phone:(
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] sublimaze:
You essentially paid $125 early adopter tax. Ouch.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Thats fine with me. I just needed to get it sold. Having an unlocked bootloader is essential for me
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
There is a form you have to fill out when you purchase a developer device. i will try to pull a photo of it from s4 dev edition
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] BeansTown106:
ya i know what u mean for sure its definetly weird coming from a note2/3 to a s3/4

lol im gonna awnser that form pretty ridiculiously
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
here ya go buddy

[/URL][/IMG]
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Tidefan13:
So will the form be on there site when u go to purchase it? Never gotten a Dev phone b4

Roll Tide!!!!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
correct after you hit shop and then once it shows up in cart lol next step after that
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Haha this should be fun. I updated my account to developer on the Samsung website. Prolly wont do anything though. Just bored of waiting i guess.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] tgyberg:
I'm a "general consumer" so I guess that rules me out! :P
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
You can't it's only full retail and nice sell that thing lol
