Lucky dog. I keep clicking the shop button and it takes me to my cart, but nothing is there :(

Yeah I've been refreshing the page since I found the shop button & nada. I've used 4 different browsers too
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Marvelicious75:
They had one... lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] tgyberg:
Was thinkin the same thing! :laugh:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] droidrev71:
Hate to say this but my order isn't successful. WTF! My bad all. Some how sg4 developer edition was attached to my cart. Wow big over look on my part.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] mrlaigle:
Yeah just had the button work for me. Credit card was held for fraud then I had seen s4 and thought thank goodness.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] droidrev71:
I can't believe this! Only phone I viewed was note 3. I new it was too good to be true.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] mrlaigle:
Did the order cancel? I know it did the same thing to me. I thought it was odd that it was 649 instead of 699.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] droidrev71:
No, I ordered. I was multitasking trying to let others know it was available while I was ordering. I didn't pay attention like an idiot. Can't cancel once it's placed.

---------- Post added at 12:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:46 AM ----------

How embarrassing! Back to the refresh button. My note 3 is going to cost me more than anyone else's..lol

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] MotorcycleMike:
Anyone know if the DE will be 16gb or 32gb?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] mrlaigle:
32
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
THEY ARE IDIOTS IN THAT CHAT might be worse then verizon. they always tell me verizon sells the devices they just make them lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] chefb:
I thought you were mailing your note to hashcode?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Brandonrz:
He's talking about his future note 3 dev. Edition. I'm so glad that he said he's going to focus on the dev. Note 3 giving us all of the goodies
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jmichaels1982:
I never thought buying a phone would be so nerve wrecking lol . I am hoping this bad boy wont get backordered within mins of it going live like before . I'll be really sad
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] tgyberg:
You have already caused confusion, I am confused as to why you dumbasses haven't released the DE yet.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
wish we all could just buy one already. i have called and chatted online and they all say verizon sells the devices not them smh
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] braindancer:
nindep outside

What exactly was idiotic in his response? He personally probably doesn't know when this device comes out. He refused to provide any speculative information, because he is instructed not to do so. Did you want him to pull some statements out of his hat?

I think we all need to stop generalizing EVERY CSR into the "idiot" category. For the most part, they are following the script anyway, and they are penalized/fired if they deviate.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Marvelicious75:
So you maintain that they may in fact be very intelligent people who just don't know anything useful? OK, I'll accept that, but for all the good that does us, they might as well be idiots!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
they all say you cant buy the developer edition from them have to go to a verizon store. that is a false statement. they sell the s4 developer edition on their website still just like some guys in this thread last night but they all disagree i have talked too
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] SeanPlunk:
I don't think anyone was actually successful in ordering one?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
correct nobody has successfully ordered
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] gcarterny:
I think Samsung reps just say that to try and end the conversation.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Marvelicious75:
He was referring to how previous Developer Editions (S4) have sold out rapidly.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] TechBSwift:
I've never owned a DE device, who's responsible for pushing updates? Verizon or Samsung?

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
they just need to release it and tell their reps the truth and you cannot purchase these from verizon
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] harosxcomp170:
I've been going back and forth this whole morning calling Samsung then Verizon they keep telling me to call the other, it's a vicious circle! I'm getting pissed!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
honestly, I dont think itll be backordered. Im still thinking itll come out sometime next month though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
i think it will be out friday
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Why do you say that?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Marvelicious75:
Next month starts on Friday...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
But we have no confirmation itll be on friday. Theres no point in starting rumors and getting people all hyped. I meant next month as in not on the first, possible later on.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Marvelicious75:
Riiiiight, like removing the "Coming Soon" label and adding a "Shop" button hasn't stirred the hype already. You're telling someone to stop smoking in a burning building!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] iankellogg:
even with odin files we aren't guaranteed it. Lots of ifs. CF one root WILL NOT WORK. and the de la vega root method might not work, we don't know yet.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Stone 13:
I'm fine with the Note 3 as is, I'm just hoping we get root because I've never seen so much bloatware on a phone.

3 years ago I would have jumped at the idea of a Dev edition, but my GNex seems to have cured my addiction to custom ROMS, these days I just need a solid device that allow me to remain productive and the Note III more than fits the bill. I guess I'm getting old..lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] W00fah:
Root will surely come, just have to be patient. I bet maybe someone is working in silence to get stuff worked outed and make sure it's solid. You never know. And it's crap timing as always with when the dev devices pop up. It really does seem like they plan this stuff out. And maybe not everyone will want to get a Dev Edition at full price. Sucks not everyone can do that. And also you never know how many devs will really want to get a dev device.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
Edit: Update

talked to samsung and they said price is not fixed or in system yet but first week in November
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] BootlegZani:
I think I can hold out.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
I don't know yet for me
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] tgyberg:
Nice! I am for sure waiting. Now, let's sell some dev's on buying them as well! :D
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
yeah i just want root for this one for now! even though i paid full retail too not sure i will make the jump to dev one
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] inco9nito99:
Hmmm...so the Dev version is apparently coming out the first week of November. I'm assuming the difference between that and the regular VZW GN3 is that it has an unlocked bootloader, (ability to root?) Anything else? Is it also safe to say it will be more than the retail price I paid for my regular GN3 ($699.99?)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] razortaz18:
Where can the serial number be found?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] BootlegZani:
Well if I can get a regular Note 3 for $90 I will have to pass on the Developer Edition.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] droidstyle:
Lol @ those who told me a dev edition will not be available ;)

Beans is planning on getting one...So if you want to run one of his customized TW roms, you will need a Dev edition.

Even with Odin files, root is not guranteed...Verizon trying to keep devices from being rooted because that is the entrance into all other possible exploits and gives one the ability to debloat and block Ads which = money! They do not want you to have that priviledge on a subsidized device. look how long it took the S4 to get root after the update...also how will knox affect achieving root? This stuff is no walk in the park like it use to be.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] sublimaze:
Yeah I saw this on the interwebz today. Great news if you have not yet bought a Note 3, but it kinda sucks for those that did (myself included). I'll probably sell my stock Note 3 and take a $75-100 loss, but that is the price you pay to be an early adopter. :(
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dooku77:
Whats the price estimated to be for a 32gb version? I've been a longtime Verizon customer but I'm quickly growing tired of their ways. When the last dev edition phone came out they weren't letting people put insurance on them in the beginning.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] tgyberg:
Beans!! Best news I've heard in a while!! :good:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
I bought one for $750 but I can still return mine to Verizon and get money back no big deal. And hope the note 3 developer edition is only $699

$699 I wouldn't think it would over $699. & I hate this about Verizon
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dooku77:
Same here. I really want to get the dev edition for the sake of running ROMs but 700 is super steep right now, although there is the option to finance one lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
Did you have an upgrade through Verizon??

I guess that's one good thing about paying retail lol
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dooku77:
I thought that the dev editions could not be bought with an upgrade. I don't have one available but it just dawned on me that I have a 64gb ifake 5 sitting on my nightstand that I can sell to fund my n3 dev edition.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] bodieism:
I was on the fence about whether or not to wait for the Developer Edition Note 3 (almost bought a retail version today), but your post makes my decision easy.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
exactly

and that is not true. the day i saw the model number listed i contacted asap asking about when it would be out and they told me november 1st which is friday. after i made contact and others tried they wont give a firm date after that first day i contacted them. sounded like they knew what they were talking about that day but after um no clue. i am thinking and hoping friday :laugh:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Ohhh see if you had said that before i wouldn't of questioned you. Thanks [MENTION=5297338]oneandroidnut[/MENTION] for the info and my apologies for anyone who got a bit butt hurt with my response.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
youre ok buddy no harm in it. I'm sure i stated that pages ago but i will be the first to say im not digging through 40 pages to find my one post i said that! haha so im sure you arent going to dig through the whole thread either! and there is a thanks button haha

but yes i really am hoping for friday
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Yeah me too! I just set up my paypal and swappa so when the time comes I can post and sell it quick. Plus I get paid friday :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
I would sell already if you have a backup phone to get the most out of it. And i have the money just waiting! ugh so long to wait!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
I do have my old gs3. I might do that.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
well that isnt too bad of a device so if you could tolerate that i would sell note 3 or at least list now!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Yeah but i dont wanna set it up again. I wiped it because i thought i sold it to a friend but he backed out sooo ill just wait.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
it isnt a 32 gb or brown s3 is it?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] gcarterny:
I would second the Friday Oneandroidnut cause it seems like it was a few days with no more coming soon now a few days with the shop button so maybe that's there way of letting people know it's gonna be available soon without coming out and saying it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
yeah they are testing everything and just havent flipped that last switch for it to be available for purchase in the cart yet everything else seems to be a go. i wish samsung would tell us how many they are going to sell or what the sales numbers are after the sell out. i would be very interested in that
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] gcarterny:
I just hope they don't jack the price up on us.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
im expect at least $699 and possibly $749 i will be ready to pay either amount! :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
No pebble blue 16gb. Why?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
cause i want a brown s3 as a backup phone or a 32 blue one again like used to have i would have been interested if it was either of those
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] YoungSkeezy:
so my 14 day mark is this saturday... wanna know how sure this 1st of november thing is....

how many of yall are ACTUALLY going to get this device? Don't mind paying the restocking fee at all. But would LOVE a de-odexed de-bloated ROM :)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] tgyberg:
If it popped up for sale right now I'd buy it in a second. I have a Bean'd Note 2 so the wait isnt terrible but it's not a picnic either!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
i am getting the note 3 developer edition whenever it hits. i paid the $35 restocking fee weeks ago and returned my note 3 to verizon. all my cases sitting in cabinet all lonely :(

yup me too. htc one isnt bad but note 3 is so much better
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] sublimaze:
I remember those days. It felt like my Tbolt was the only phone on the network *sigh*
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] harosxcomp170:
Ya on my old Thunderbolt I could get like 8-16mbs 4g at my house now with my Galaxy S3 if I even get a 4g connection its like 4mb at most at my house. It's definitely not my phone either cause at my work I've gotten like 50mbs on my gs3 before.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
I know man I got a thunderbolt like the week they were released and that thing would pull 30 mbps down like it was cake now I can't back 10! :(
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] TechSavvy2:
Thunderbolt was the only LTE phone on their network when it released. There was nothing else eating up bandwidth. Look how many Megs Big Red is pushing out TOTAL now. The network is being taxed much harder these days. I'd be happy with 10 if I were you (but that's just me).
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
I know that's why it was so great lol

And I wish I could get 10 can't even get that anymore with full bars here in Cincinnati it's a joke right now. Think aws will open it up?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] YoungSkeezy:
So as the evidence mounts, I may return my note 3 tomorrow... Jesus I want that dev edition one...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
I know man we all do. We are all waiting in agony
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Thepooch:
I may be a little goofy looking this close but the Dev Edition has been given a shop button. Even if it doesn`t add the device to cart yet this seems like a step in the right direction:D :silly: .

Edit: Considering in the past 24 hours or so the coming soon was removed and the shop button was added. Hmmm maybe I`m grasping for straws lol.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
the shop button has been there since late tuesday night and coming soon has been gone since monday i believe
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dk0r:
[off topic] If you don't mind being on contract then why return? Just swap your retail n3 out with a spare device, eBay/swappa the retail n3, and then buy a dev-ed.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Thepooch:
I work 80 hours a week it all blends together but that sounds about right to me ;) .
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] tgyberg:
80 hours a week? Are you sure that's enough?! :P
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Thepooch:
No 20 more would make an even hundred that's a much nicer number :P
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
lol thats too many hours!

This is what I get in chicago
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] johnminator:
So since im broke when the Dev edition comes out could that lead up to a unlock for the regular version.. just wondering
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
I doubt it. Dev s4 has been out and no unlock for regular s4
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keennay:
Will the come with an internal micro-SD slot?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
what you mean? it will be an identical phone to the normal verizon phone just an unlockable bootloader
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keennay:
I looked at the Verzion Developer edition specs on Samsung's site and didn't see micro-SD listed under the memory section. I've never compared a developer edition of a phone, but if the above is true then that's great news!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
i dont see it listed either but im sure it will have it
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
The s4 dev edition had a micro sd slot. Its kind of one of the main features that sets it apart from its leading competitor- nexus 4/5
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
Alright guys if the phone launches tomorrow like I was first told you think it will happen at midnight or tomorrow during the day?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] jmichaels1982:
pessimistic view

ok I am going to sound really pessimistic here and ask: if neither happens, how long will you wait till you take an aggressive action ( such as going back to verizon edition, or switching carriers or just thinking about a different phone ) ?

I realllyyyy hope you are right and it will be sometime within the next 24 hours, It was the biggest tease on this earth owning this device and giving it back !
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
You're fine man I have thought about that too cause we all know how the reps can be lol

I will probably deal with my HTC One until December. And yes I know it's such tease
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Marvelicious75:
Honestly, I'm only looking at Verizon to get on my companies plan (free phone bill is too good to pass up...). If I were sticking with gsm, I would be taking a

serious

look at the Xperia Z Ultra. That said, I can live with the phone I have now until they release what I want. I've learned my lesson on locked bootloaders - never again.

---------- Post added at 04:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:26 PM ----------

The specs for the regular Verizon edition don't mention it either. I'm sure it's just an oversight.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Just listed my phone on swappa! Awaiting the dev edition to finally pop up then Ill be hopping onto that!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dooku77:
When you rooted it did you trip Knox? How come you don't want it?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
No it didnt trip knox due to [MENTION=4395895]beanstown106[/MENTION] great root method. I don't want it because im gonna go with the developer edition.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] dooku77:
Damn I'm torn here. I don't know of I'll have the full funds for the de. I've been seeing them sell like hot cakes on swappa.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] keynith:
Ive got mine listed at less than most so it sells and ill just pay the difference

I'm in a similar situation. I am on a old share plan with family so I get unlimted data, unlimited mobile to mobile calling, and unlimited text for $40 a month. I also use an insane amount of data and vzw has never complained about it. That deal is hard to beat and if it wasn't for that I would have be gone a long time ago.

Does anyone know if AndreiLux is going to support his Perseus kernel for the Note 3? I loved it on my Note 2.

Don't be so quick to beat yourself down. I'm seeing the "coming soon" removed this morning, but when I click shop it doesn't add anything to the cart.

It's close...REAL close.

Its been like that for days
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] mjlewis0102:
Help please

So Here is my delima. I'm on verizon unlimited (grandfathered) and have a S4. Had my S4 stolen last week which had unlocked bootloader custom rom and all (along with my 64gb micro sd). I wasn't brave enough for suicide, so I paid Verizon $100 deductible and they sent me a new S4 the next day. Needless to say, it was ME7 and I had to safestrap to get my hyperdrive back, which now takes up most of my internal memory.

Anyway I wanted the Note 3 before this all happened but now I reallllly realllly want it. Need the storage (plus everything else.

Should I wait for the DE or should I just get the Verizon edition now. I have $700 but its burning a hole in my pocket. I am literally waiting for the Verizon store to open up to explore my options.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
if you want an unlocked bootloader it is a must for the developer edition. the verizon edition note 3 looks like it will get safestrap but that is not good enough for me when im purchasing a $700+ phone
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] TechBSwift:
I would buy the Verizon version and play with it for the next 14 days, if the DEV version comes out return the Verizon version, it will cost you the $35 restocking fee but if you complain about signal they will cut that in half. So you borrow a Note 3 for $17 hahaha
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] oneandroidnut:
That is what i did lol i paid the whole $35 restocking fee cause i didnt complain lol and come on note 3 developer! im ready!
