I just won the lottery. I got the one helpful rep.

So what happened was that for some reason my order was never actually completed on their side. So the rep yesterday that told me it was backordered is an idiot.

They refunded my overnight shipping but are still overnighting the phones to me. And I was able to change my white phone to black! Here's to hoping I get my tracking info today!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] SuperTeece:
Mine is out for delivery!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] johnduggins:
I ordered on 3/21 around 4am and got my shipping notification last night. Black with a fit.

What type of contract (contract, off contract, next, etc) did y'all get? I ordered with next. I'm curious if that had anything to do with the late (?) shipping.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] MattMJB0188:
Ordered through Premier with no commitment pricing. Mine is scheduled to arrive tomorrow.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] madman_sle:
Picked mine up from UPS this morning!

Mine is out for delivery!

---------- Post added at 09:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:53 AM ----------

I did Next and mine is being delivered today, 2 days before store release, so it must not be the reason.

What had been the most noticeable difference due to having kitkat? Not what has the new tw UI changed, but kitkat.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] rodger-sp:
The first thing I noticed was the camera short cut on the lock screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] WizeGuyDezignz:
Mine is out for delivery!! :good:

Has anyone who has the phone confirmed Download Booster?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] YoungAceAtlanta:

Here you go!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] WizeGuyDezignz:
Thanks bro! I'm actually not disappointed, I was just curious. I wouldn't see myself every using that feature, so I'm cool. But thanks for the info! :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Pure+:
Can you post some more Screen shots of some of the other new features? Ultra power saving and whatever else is new? also some of the "re-envisioned" touch wiz?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] MattMJB0188:
Thanks man. I appreciate that. Looks like T-Mobile is the only carrier to have it so far. Of course I can't see many T-Mobile customers using download booster as their LTE signal almost always disappears inside where their is wifi. And on the network which gives me an excellent LTE signal inside has omitted the feature. Wow.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] robertopod1968:
Here are a couple of others. If there is anything in particular you'd like to see just ask. I am "supposed" to be working so if it takes a little bit it's because some customer interrupted my play day!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Pure+:
It all appears to be pretty well refined. Finally a TW that might be worth using lol. Can You post screen shots of

Messages App

Ultra Power Saving Mode Enabled Home Screen

Web Browser

App Drawer

Multi Tasking

And i really hope you don't get anymore annoying customers lol. :good::good::good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] CB620:
Just picked one up locally, anyone have any unlock methods I have T-Mobile.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] djkinetic:
Good lord I was thinking of picking one up just to try it even knowing that the Dev support for US carriers will be sorely lacking due to locked BL no loki exploit, but the screens of the latest TW have me saying TW has gotten even uglier....I dont think I wanna bother with it at all now...BTW did you get rid of your M8 for the S5??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] robertopod1968:
Definitely looks a lot better to me. Here are a few more. I can't seem to take a screen shot of the ultra low power screen. Probably because the camera is disabled in that mode.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] CB620:
Hell No!

LOL

Still using my M8. It is the perfect phone as of now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] robertopod1968:
Messages app
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Pure+:
It looks so so so much better than TW past. Can't wait to get mine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] djkinetic:
Bout to say, why would anyone give up a fully customizeable M8 over the S5, only reason I could see anyone giving up the m8 for s5 would be the camera and if generally you just like Samsung products much the same way Apple users choose Apple cause its Apple lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] MattMJB0188:
Not yet. Glad to see AT&T included the earphones this time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Pure+:
I generally have all 3 companies Flagship phones for whatever year it is. I just get to tired of phones to quickly and need lots of variety. M8 is next purchase. But that's besides the point. Everyone has different preferences and opinion of what a phone should be and how it should perform. The simple truth is there are no perfect phones and none of them are really better than others. The perfect phone will only be perfect for the person using it. For some people that means something as simple as a early 2000's flip phone. I respect your opinion but I strongly disagree with it and I do not feel that this is the appropriate place for you to voice that opinion, that is unless your goal is to provoke those who have purchased the S5. Either way, it's my opinion that you should move that comment to the M8 threads where it belongs.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] djkinetic:
Not provoking anything, I've stated in another thread that I'm sure the s5 is a good phone and will sell lots...agree that everyone has different needs, I get bored of phones too, I'm already bored of my M8, sitting here waiting for the One plus One announcement lol...If you think I was trying to start a war of which phone is better, that wasnt the intention....My intended implication from the comment was that in my opinion a device with which you have complete control of trumps a phone that comes locked down, unless you need the better camera or have a bias to samsung products.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] dwd3885:
That's cool. I'd rather have more control than less control. But I like that Samsung simplified the S5.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Pure+:
My main point is that there are people with bias to all phones and whether your comment was meant to be provocative or not, people here are going to take that way and that's why I suggested you move the comment, so we don't end up with a phone war.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] karmuh:
It's pretty obvious you meant it to be provoking. This isn't the first time you've shown your bias towards the M8. We get it, you like the M8 over the S5. That's cool. You should perhaps go to the M8 forums and talk about it over there then...instead of continually talking down the S5 in the S5 forums.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] londonandlawson:
I prefer plastic on phones, I am not on the metal body bandwagon. Can't wait to try one of these
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] jdubya45:
Stop the fighting. There are plenty of Devs on XDA that will find a way to exploit the locked bootloader. They did with the note 3 (safestrap) so I am confident the S5 will get its share.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] WizeGuyDezignz:
Look what a little white truck just dropped off.....come to daddy!!!! :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] dwanhala:
That's the same combo that I'm looking to get. You'll have to mention your thoughts on the Neo.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] yoonus:
is bootloader unlocked

Can anyone verify if bootloader is locked?

Also, how much free storage space is available?

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] djkinetic:
10.7gb i believe is free, as for the BL that shouldnt even be a question anymore with ATT and VZW phones.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] WizeGuyDezignz:
Most definitely man, I will post my thoughts here once I get a chance to play with them. I am at work right now, so I won't have much time for the next couple hours unfortunately lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] mickeywdw1254:
Just my luck! I pay for overnight, had delivery scheduled for today by 8pm, ended up getting the plane that had issues in Memphis delaying it 5 hrs and therefore will not receive phone until tomorrow. Oh well, a safe plane is more important than me getting my phone a day earlier.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Pure+:
It wasn't the missing Malaysia Airlines plane was it? Lol..... Jk
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] jellymonster442:
Just got the phone about 2 hours ago! Haven't put it down yet. I'm in love. For those still waiting, it's honestly worth the wait.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Robertcrow:
Got mine
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] samsat:
I popped into an AT&T reseller off Balboa yesterday. They could only show me the M8, I would have loved to have seen both side by side.

I know you feelings on the M8 but look forward to your S5 experience.

As I have said before I have had HTC devices for many years but I am by no means fixated on them. I have rooted and played with ROMS on all of my HTC's but favored the ROMs that were closest to stock but without all of the bloating and with a couple of new features added.

If rooting and flashing was easy to do on the S5 with voiding the warranty (and there's no definitive answer that you will) I would get it right away.

I'll wait a few days for both to officially go on sale, read the reviews and then decide.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] hightechlive:
I agree it is fast and feels great,I'll tell you what Apple better bring it with iOS 8 and iPhone 6 to have me put the gs5 down because my iPhone 5s just became a expensive iPod.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] deepen915:
Just received mine this morning!

I love it so far! Improved on the S4 in every way possible!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] sholsten:
I say Fed-Ex should have refund the overnight charges when they fail to hold up their end for whatever reason.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Zomb!e:
My order is still under review. Been that way for 3 days. My G-Nex has had it.

Switching from Verizon. T-MO or Sprint isn't an option where I live. Had VZW for like 12 yrs. Time for a change. Hope it ships soon.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] sholsten:
I got mine in today. Loving it so far. Having to get used to the new settings & etc.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Pure+:
Got heme!!!!!!! FedEx always hits my house early but I was not expecting a door bell ring at 7:30 this morning. Not that I'm complaining lol!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] omgabunny:
Mine arrived at around 10 am yesterday morning. Charged it up after going through the activation page. I've been on it ever since. Going on 16 hours on battery with a little over 4 hours of screen use. I'm at 32% battery at this posting. Not bad.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] jamezr:
That actually sounds rather great!

Off topic......man....what are the Steelers going to do this year? They are losing all their receivers....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Pikaru:
I'd call the order team at AT&T. I also switched from Verizon and for whatever reason my order was in an "open" status that the first customer service representative I called didn't catch.

They had to go back in and process my order and I got refunded overnight shipping and still got it overnighted to me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] ChiefWilNel:
I see they want to dump the LG optimus G pretty quickly I think mine was eligible for upgrade in January. I bought the phone in Feb. Its great the only thing I dislike about it is the size...which the S5 does not solve. I WANT A SMALLER PHONE. my atrix was perfect

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AutoUnion:
Any update on the Blue variant? I asked the guys at my corp store and they looked at me like I had two heads.

- sent from Galaxy Note 3
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] SolarTrans:
Haven't heard anything. I don't know if there's a blue wireless charging backplate, but you could get a black phone and put the blue back on it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] brivette007:
I straight out can't preorder it on Premier! I'm on an antique rate plan from 2004 -- an old Cingular family plan with my parents and brother.

Since our plan also has an employer discount, it automatically redirects me to the premier site. I can add the phone to my cart, but cannot checkout. It tells me that my current rate plan is not compatible with this phone.

And it's not just that phone, I tried adding basic/feature phones to the cart with no avail. Possibly a bug on their site. :confused:

Or it could be AT&T's way of telling us we need to get a new plan.

But I'm sure if I go to the store to buy it come April 11th, I won't have any issues, but I will have to pay that ugly $36 activation fee.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] MattMJB0188:
That's BS too. I hate AT&T Premier. I got my pre-order in tonight buy ordering it through my mom's line. She isn't eligible for a normal upgrade, which is why Premier gave the option for no commitment pricing. Three AT&T reps were clueless as to why there is no option for no commitment pricing. I figured this out on my own lol.

If I was in your case, I would just not pre-order it. Do not risk your plan. I also have a grandfathered AT&T plan (unlimited data and texting) that I never want to loose. Hopefully you find a way. Good luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] brivette007:
That's the route I'm probably going to take. It's not worth the aggravation over saving $36.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cloudraker:
There shouldnt be an activation charge for you if you buy the phone outright. See, if you go and buy a phone, any phone, and go to AT&T to put in on your account, they dont charge an activation fee. If you buy one from craigslist or something like that, no activation fee. They only charge that fee when you subsidize a phone through them and activate it. When i asked a rep at the store if i would get charged an activation fee for buying it outright, he said no, they dont charge the fee if you bring your own device. If you pay full retail for the phone, its your own device you are bringing.

It may only be 36 bucks, but thats 36 bucks that im sure you need more than AT&T does.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] brivette007:
I usually like to stick with subsidizing on a 2 year agreement anyway.

I went down to the nearest Best Buy that had the phone on display this evening. After playing with it a while, I was impressed with it. They were offering a preorder promo to receive a $10 gift card. So I let them reel me in! :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] MattMJB0188:
Grandfathered plan on AT&T here and I will never sign another 2 yr commitment ever again. No carrier will own me. I will pay for the device at full cost. Anyway, does anyone know if you have an old plan if you can do next? I read you have to switch to a mobile share plan.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] natefish:
Ordered mine tonight. Went with Next because we just got the family mobile share plan. Did the math and it ask Congress of about the same from what we were paying for monthly service and upgrades.

For your question, I believe that is what AT&T wants at least. I got a text saying I was eligible for Next before we switched to the new family share plan. So, I think you can do Next on an older plan, but how "older" are you talking about? If it's one that they no longer offer, they probably won't. But, when they want to keep you as a customer, it may just depend who you talk to, right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] indymx:
I also switched to the Next plan.. At first really didn't want to, but once I saw that I could pay off the phone early and be out of the contract, I thought it sounded like a good idea. It was either that or buy it outright, but outright isn't a possibility for me right now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cloudraker:
My brother is grandfathered on an old cingular plan and he had no issues using next.

Ok so you CAN pay off the phone early? And if so does that open up eligibility to trade up sooner? I mean if I am on the 12 month next program and I pay off the amount due for the 12 months can I trade in?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] hightechlive:
I wonder if Samsung will let preorders ship early because htc surprise people with the same day launch of the htc one?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Venom0642:
We Shall See! :good::p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] natefish:
It says somewhere that you have to pay the remaining amount if you lose the phone, so I don't see why you couldn't pay the remainder to upgrade earlier, too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] sholsten:
I pre-ordered my phone last night. I hope my wife doesn't murderize me too much! ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] oldblue910:
Mine was preordered on the 25th but I'm sending it back if the launch devices have download booster disabled. The in-store demo devices do, but since those are known to have some things disabled, I'm willing to give AT&T the benefit of the doubt.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] SolarTrans:
If the demos do, we're looking quite hopeful :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] oldblue910:
No. The demos do have it disabled.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] SolarTrans:
Oh sorry I thought you said the demos /did/ have it XD

Well, let's wait and see I guess. Many of them have the fingerprint scanner disabled, so I wouldn't be surprised if this just isn't there on demos. We shall wait and see I guess. I am 99% sure I'll return it if it isn't there though. I have 9GB of an AT&T 10GB family data plan all to myself (everyone else uses very little data :P) and I need to fill it with something!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] vince2398:
Does anyone know when the blue AT&T S5 can be purchased?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] karmuh:
No one knows for sure. All the carriers and even Samsung refuse to address that, as well as the other storage options. In the meantime, I've gone ahead and ordered a pretty nice case that has taken care of that little problem:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00I3UWEIA/ :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] rodger-sp:
The download booster is disabled on all Att s5.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] SolarTrans:
Who did you confirm this with?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] oldblue910:
Update, I've officially ceased giving a ****. I've canceled my preorder and decided that my Z Ultra GPE is a better phone than the GS5 anyway, so screw it. I'm going to just go with it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] SolarTrans:
Well if the 6" screen floats your boat then by all means go for it!

You may want to wait for the S5 GPE though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] oldblue910:
Oh I already own the ZU GPE. I've had it for a month or so. But yes, if there's an S5 GPE, I'm all over it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] SolarTrans:
Yeah I know you had it, but when I meant "go for it" I was referring to canceling your pre order :P

Thing is, I doubt the S5 GPE will have download booster either. The S5 has a good number of features that Google would have to port over if it were to maintain at least a portion of the skinned version's functionality.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] oldblue910:
Yeah. With the GPE, though, it's up front and understood that the give is on update promptness and the take is on features. I own a GS4 GPE so I know how it goes. Also, the OEMs create the ROMs, not Google. ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] rodger-sp:
I have a att galaxy s5.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] SolarTrans:
How'd you get it early? It could be released in a launch day patch though.

---------- Post added at 05:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:12 PM ----------

Ah yeah forgot about that thanks ;)

I had my S4 GPE for quite a while and really enjoyed it!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] karmuh:
No you don't.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] MattMJB0188:
All signs so far point to it being disabled. However, it may be restored in a future update.

Don't blame you at all. Tempted here, but I am actually looking forward to the device in general. May hold out for root which may restore it. Fingers crossed.

Post pictures determining its the AT&T model in settings.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] SolarTrans:
That's actually a good thought. I'm very hopeful that this will be possible with root.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] JayRolla:
Hey guys just preordered my s5. I know its a big upgrade to my s3 but I feel maybe I should wait for another phone to come out or should have gone with the HTC one m8. I usually feel good when I purchase a new samsung but the HTC is just so beautiful. I hope I made the right decision. What you guys think abotu the m8?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] oldblue910:
Given how fast mobile technology changes, I can promise you that if you continually hold of for the next best thing, you'll never own a new device. Just find something you like, buy it, and don't regret it. That said, most AT&T corporate stores have both GS5 and M8 demo models in store now. Go and mess around with them and see what you like best.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] hightechlive:
I just checked my att order status and is shows shipped today with a fedex tracking that shows no info yet and i ordered it on 3/27.
