I don't remember when I changed plans, but I do miss the 6gb data plan on virgin :(
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxaz:
yeah...but so far it will cost about the same then buying here...you gonna have to pay the sale tax wich it gonna be about the same total amount at the end......for a 3rd party rom...all canadians variant have had bootloader locked....wich the t-mobile until now are sold with the bootloader unlocked.... the only issue is the warranty stuff......but personally i dont care much since i tend to keep my phone 1 1/2 to 2 years only....

by the way...your plan is perfect...;) even exceptional compairing to the today crappy plan.....have the same plan but only 3GB, wich is not bad...loll
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqman69:
wooooo, all canadians variant have had bootloader locked?

where? when? all my phones bought this way never had a bootloader locked!

please someone confirm
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxaz:
my bad your righ...guess is making too much time that i didn"t have a canadians variant loll but beware....the newly device like the g3 (even canadians versions) have the bootloader locked.....http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/help/canadian-g3-bootloader-t2834906 it doesn"t mean that the next note will not be unlocked this years...the newly U.S variant except for t-mobile have all the locked bootloader... anxious to see the next note 4..........
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unseenfury:
Is there a place i can order the note 4 for canada? I want the unlocked version because i still have a S3 contract with videotron with a totally dead phone. i will use with this phone to finish my contract.

I tried to find the information but there none. None of the Canadian carrier offer the N4 of their website. Ebay seem to only have the Exynos version.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxaz:
you gonna have to wait for the north american version wich is about to be available in the next two week or so....the exynos version will work but not on lte...
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unseenfury:
why none of the big carrier announce it on thei website... still the iphone on first page... nothing about N4.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxaz:
guess when they gonna put it in their web....it will be available right away?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqman69:
Well, at first I believed that it was because Apple was pulling a Microsoft and paid the operators to minimize Samsung, but I now realize that Samsung is to blame.

There is NO annouced price on the Note 4 (from Samsung).

There is NO official release date (17 October on a stupid map? That's it?).

How can an operator announce something so fuzzy?

Samsung has botched this release so bad.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unseenfury:
I asked my brother-in-law, he working at Rogers and they didnt receive it yet and didn't receive any internal news about the N4 for now.

Worst news I read all week. That sucks. ?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brava27:

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
A Rogers phone won't work with Virgin Mobile, will it?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brava27:
Virgin runs on Bell LTE which is same frequency as Rogers Telus and Bell.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
But it would need to be unlocked? Correct? My daughter was given an iphone that was originally with Rogers and I was told it can only work with Rogers... I'm use to buying international unlocked phones that just work everywhere. LOL

That said, I put an order in with pdaplaza in Montreal for the SM-N910U. I don't care much for LTE because my plan is too small to bother, and my note 2's mobile data speeds are more than enough for what I need it for. I expect them to ship Monday and I'll have it Tuesday or wednesday. It's an Exynos version, which seems to outperform on benchmarks and possibly can be unlocked to 64 bit (doesn't matter for me, but it's a bonus if it can).

I'll let you guys know when it's in my hands... it's really a shame that Sammy isn't like apple when it comes to release dates, availability, etc.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqman69:
I have a preorder with telus.

The model is the same sm-n910w8 for telus,bell,rogers. So, besides the locked sim and the bloatware there is no difference.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cknewdeal:
How did you get a preorder with Telus, they don't have it up on their site yet. I haven't gone into the store yet because I'm lazy.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqman69:
Futureshop.

You can preorder in-store only. Check out their page, go to cellular and look for Note 4 Preorder.

Bell has the note 4 online, coming Oct 24th $299.99. Black or White models.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Pre orders at all bell locations start today!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brava27:
Yup unlocked and you're good. The pdaplaza version you ordered is hspa+ only here in North America with exynos. Not a bad choice.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
Yeah, it's what my Note 2 gets, and I'm fine with that, since I do ZERO multimedia with my mobile data - it's all IM's and email.

They said they'll be shipping today - I asked for Saturday delivery, so we'll see if I'll be setup by tomorrow evening ! :good: Rooting it right away!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msavic6:
PSA: Note 4 Demo devices have reached Samsung Stores in BC! The Metrotown location has 4 on display with the plastic still on them.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Qualme1:
Is that at a Bell store? I plan to pre order after work today. I started to pre order online but would prefer in store pickup over it being mailed to me.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msavic6:
This was at the Metrotown Samsung Store.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brava27:
Yeah I'm gonna do the same. LTE isn't much faster than hspa+ and doesn't use much battery. Hopfully there is a recovery out soon for the note or else rooting is gonna be difficult if something goes wrong.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EP2008:
Yeah, perhaps I shouldn't go balls in so quickly?? LOL

PDA Plaza said Canada post can't do Saturday delivery, so I'll be getting it Tuesday. That'll give me time to clean up my Note 2 and prepare stuff before it comes. Looking forward to it!

Good luck getting yours! :good::laugh::highfive:
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sauron0101:
Any idea what variants are working with Wind Mobile?

I presume that it would be the same variant as the T-Mobile variant in the US, only with a different modem? That's the way it was for the Note 2, T-889 was the American variant on T-Mobile and the T-889V was the Canadian one. The LTE I remember was locked, but I think it could be unlocked with some work.

Might want to look this up:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1993212

I presume it's all Snapdragons then here in Canada? No Exynos supporting AWS? I suppose we might have to get a Snapdragon anyways - I'm not sure about how much AOSP development will occur on the Exynos versions, especially looking at the Note 3 Exynos' history. Unless Samsung opens up its documentation for the developers, it may end up repeating the Note 3 Exynos' situation.

Edit:

Did a bit more reading.

I think the variants heading to Canada are the SM-N910W8 and possibly the SM-N910T1. Will double check.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brava27:
I development is what you're looking for then I guess snapdragon is what we want.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Verbal Emissions:
Ok so I have become lost in reading all these threads about if I can or cant unlock my boot loader or flash certain roms etc so lemme give you the specs and please point me in the right direction to some threads or information that could help me. I am basically looking to root my phone and flash a rom that is as bloatware free and fast as possible with as many bells and whitsles for custimization as i can get.

My Phone:

Model Number: C6906

Android Version: 4.4.4

baseband version: 8974-aaaaanazq-10270054-51

Kernal Version: 3.4.0-perf-g0109737

Build Number: 14.4.a.0.108

so again ig anyone can point me to the right information so I dont screw my phone up that would be great. I know what I am doing once I get to the right info as I moded my last 3 phones myself just I know it is very sensitive to each phone and build.

If i am not mistaken,that is an xperia z1 right?

So go here http://xdaforums.com/xperia-z1/development/newroot-z1-t2807092

P.S. To see if you can unlock your boot loader type this *#*#7378423#*#*,then service info,configuration,now you will see Rooting status:Bootloader unlock allowed:and yes or no,thats it!At least on my Xperia z is this way :)

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Verbal Emissions:
ok it says bootloader unlock: no so I will look into what that means
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
It means you can't unlock your bootloader. It's permanently locked and there's no way around it.

No way man!

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Verbal Emissions:
WTF!!! does that mean I cant flash a custom rom? I have it rooted but still says no on the bootloader
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidfreak70:
Yes you can NOT flash custom ROMs like Cyanogenmod or Paranoid Android or PAC MAN or AOSP or AOKP etc without unlocking bootloader because they need custom kernel and the custom kernel need unlocked bootloader and you can't unlock your r bootloader because it's not possible on your device.

You can ONLY flash stock based ROMs and stock ROMs.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boanoite:
Ok guys,now explain me something.

Why are some phones allowed to unlock and some not allowed??

Isn't that cause the phone is simlock to a companie,like mine(vodafone).

And if we unlock the sim,when contract is over we can unlock bootloader,by requesting to sony the unlock code for bootloader or something?

Cause my guess is bootloader unlock is off,cause we are restricted to that companie,but if you buy a phone without a contract ,that means you can use what sim you want,the bootloader is allowed to unlock!

Am i wrong?

:)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidfreak70:
Only C6602 or C6603 models has unlockable bootloader

And the simlock and non unlockable bootloader devices are different if your device model number C6606 so you should buy C6602 or C6603 if you want to unlock the bootloader ;)

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boanoite:
My model is C6603!

I have no idea about that :|

But you can't unlock it if it's saying NO

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boanoite:

Yeah haha thanks :D

TapaTalked from my Xperia™ Z (C660²) running Dirty Unicorns ROM!
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
If you have a non unlockable bootloader, it's because your carrier requested it be that way. Sony support won't unlock and will direct you to your carrier, who don't have the means to unlock it.

Network/sim lock is not connected to your bootloader at all.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boanoite:
I know that,but i just checked this .

Dunno if it's true but.....

It's in spanish,i am portuguese so i understand a little,but you can translate it :)

Tomorow i will try to talk to sony support and see what they can say about this.

Thanks Kingvortex(Another and always helpfull guy in xperia z forum).

I HIGHLY recommend the Anker 10000, as that has been my workhorse. It has taken a beating in my tool bag for a couple years, and the damn thing still works perfectly and has a decent capacity. The price has dropped significantly since I got it, and at $26 USD it's an absolute STEAL. I think I paid double that originally.

EDIT: Aaaaand I just ordered another one. I can't believe they are so cheap now.

I don't know how exactly is implemented but i mean limit the charge level, e.g. stop charging when it hits 90%.The point behind this feature is that batteries last longer if you don't charge them to full capacity.It's better to charge them at lower level and more frequently instead of less full charges.A lot of laptops have this feature, also a relevant link i found.There is a very analytical post at batteryuniversity.com about the subject, i can search if you wanna read.
