i have ordered a note 5 N920i variant as it seems to carry TDD LTE band 40(2300) which will support indian 4g networks,but yet to ship
[Galaxy Note5 General] amey_shah2011:
Samsung has jus started to dig its grave....what foolishness is this....does samsung think dat v dnt have capacity to buy 64gb version....each and every year they do something like this....

First of all no one cares about s6 edge plus...its nothing but a useless....y wud v swipe to cal a person?

Cant v jus open our phone app and assign a contact to speed dial? Foolish concept of "people's edge"

We like Note Series not "S"series....but this tym note 5 also isn't that impressive....still v wanted to buy it....

Its tym to swap from Samsung to some other mobile company....

Supply such products which are in demand....dont try to force them on us...m
[Galaxy Note5 General] nishant786:
I was looking at that exact one too, especially because I want the silver version. From where have your ordered, eBay? I was afraid that I'd end up paying more on eBay+customs that the grey market itself.
[Galaxy Note5 General] kannanX10:
51k inc shipping and paypal charges but have to pay customs.............he does have black and gold................indian grey market pieces are mostly SM-N920C .............
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
http://www.ebay.in/itm/New-Imported...MP-5MP-Gold-/141749681872?hash=item2100f07ed0

Dual SIM here

And yeah it's easily available in grey market.... Any idea if it can be repaired if something goes wrong
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
Which city it's available for 54k? Here in Pune it's all more than 60
[Galaxy Note5 General] nishant786:
Well for starters try eBay.in. Reputed seller selling 5 and duos between 54 and 55. :) Black and gold only though.

Edit. Lol just saw your post! Same guy. In Mumbai around 57-58.
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
I am tempted to buy it from grey market but don't know what to be done if something goes wrong

And on a side note will the s6 edge + will be available in stores from 28th Aug or have to wait longer
[Galaxy Note5 General] dr.ketan:
Hey guys anyone have info about how many variants will be there for N5 and what version available in India?
[Galaxy Note5 General] dr.ketan:
That is reason I purchased from uae. As I have have no way to keep device uprooted so no meaning to wait for Indian version. I got it from uae without warranty @43k INR
[Galaxy Note5 General] Dr.Gonzo105:
Does that mean we can't unroot the phone and still have warranty?

Sorry for this question

Coming from htc device
[Galaxy Note5 General] dr.ketan:
It's been long time samsung introduce Knox and after that once you root, warranty voids permanently.
[Galaxy Note5 General] bala_gamer:
Screen replacement, wir3less charger, 24 months Emi on Hdfc cards are the benefits, nothing else much apart from having the device on day one. Price won't drop anytime soon

Texted from Note 4
[Galaxy Note5 General] Dr.Gonzo105:
Yes that I read but if I get the insurance done then I wont be needing the screen replacement advantage right?

And for me wireless charger is useless ?
[Galaxy Note5 General] franksmj:
Has anyone planning to exchange Note 4 at Samsung Stores... ? What's your exchange price.... I am in Chennai and looking for a exchange price....

Hello Everyone, looking at known faces from the last year note 4 thread. Had switched to iPhone after 6 months of using Note 4. Now onto Note 5. Pre booked the phone at Reliance Digital today, 64 GB for me.

Hi Kannan, How much is that.... Is it okay? or going to return it....

If possible , give me the link to purchase
[Galaxy Note5 General] kannanX10:
i ordered via ebay.com it will take around 10-12 days to be delivered in india..............around 2.5k for s view cover and 3k for clear view cover

[Galaxy Note5 General] r_c111:
I booked 64 GB for approx 60k
[Galaxy Note5 General] kannanX10:
indian customs are completely messed up----charged around 9k(valued [MENTION=6741908]48K[/MENTION]) for one note5 and for another note5 from same seller they charged 1.6K(valued @8k)................simply cant understand their methods and valuation

anyway black note 5 against silver titanium Edge plus
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
Yeah their process is horrible

And best thing about black note 5 is its not jet black rather it's bluish black and looks quite cool changing color under light
[Galaxy Note5 General] shamps:
Hey guys

I have an s6 and planning to buy the note 5

Has any tried to claim warranty from samsung with tripped knox.

I mean if we flash an official build through ODIN, the phone shows official status.

I ask because i got a screen replacement under warranty for an s4 with tripped knox.

Howz the scene now? Do do an outright check for knox straight away.

Thanks in advance!!
[Galaxy Note5 General] yajur:

[Galaxy Note5 General] kannanX10:

samsung india estore now states that shipping from sep 25 onwards,is there any delay or they simply ran out of stock?

does anyone ordered from estore initially got their product shipped today? (as initially they mentioned 16th as the shipping date)
[Galaxy Note5 General] dr.ketan:
Indian firmware available on sammobile

http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/55467/N920GDDU1AOH7_N920GODD1AOH7_INS/

Some one have downloaded then extract boot.img and make request for custom kernel.
[Galaxy Note5 General] yashwanthms:
I called them. Due to some manufacturing delay, they'll start shipping from 25th onwards. Damn.
[Galaxy Note5 General] kannanX10:
did u talked to estore customer support?
[Galaxy Note5 General] dhan_shh:
I'm using SM-N9208 dual sim since a week,I'm very happy with 32GB and phone is really nice.

4G works well in Chennai!

I got it from eBay for 47,400 (now the price is 46100!)

There is no problem in Region lock,no problem in 4G!

Very fluid device! Waiting for root method for 9208.Just now downloading stock firmware from SamMobile!

First day without my Note 4... Feeling sad............ sold it

Good news is that.. pre booked Note 5........ But still i could not forget my Note 4.

Thanks to Dr.Ketan and Er.Aditya for their wonderful efforts and made me to feel like that...

I am expecting someone to say.... "Welcome to Note 5 Family"....
[Galaxy Note5 General] kannanX10:
actually i do felt sad yesterday after selling my note 4, its the only device i had it for a year
[Galaxy Note5 General] bala_gamer:
It's not that hard, welcome to note 5 family. [emoji1]

[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
Once you guys feel the Note 5 you will forget the plastic feel of note 4

First time Samsung device feels premium and worth the high price tag... We always use to envy iPhone for their build quality but this time it's Samsung who beats apple in hardware design wise

Anyone planning for dbrand skins or having prior experience with it? Few of their skins are really looking nice. How long does it last?

[Galaxy Note5 General] whosaysjohn:
slickwraps

I use slickwraps for the past 2 years, these are generally long lasting...try bamboo, its great, thin and i used it on my s6. Not applied to note5 yet as i am waiting for the tan leather to arrive...

thanks
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
I'd suggest use the device without any cover etc for few days it just feels premium in hand but yeah it's slippery

But I can't help it keep without any covers the glass and metal with curved back glass makes it awesome to hold in hand unlike any past Samsung devices
[Galaxy Note5 General] bala_gamer:
Yea true, I won't be using it for a week atleast but after that I'll apply this skin, I haven't used skins before but felt like it will protect the back glass.

I'd either go with a skin or a transparent case like liquid crystal from spigen

Texted from Note 4
[Galaxy Note5 General] kannanX10:
don't buy spigen liquid crystal for note 5, i tried one and it was very poor doesn't fit properly..................
[Galaxy Note5 General] pakure:
Already ordered few cases... Spigen neo hybrid liquid crystal case and UAG case, a tempered glass protector and gadgetshieldz 360 degree protector film... All of them have arrived in my city... Should reach me tomorrow

... But yet to get my pre ordered note 5... Hopefully will get it by this Monday...

Also need to get myself a nano sim now.. Lol

Also getting the zero lemon 9800mah battery for my note 2... To pass on to the wife[emoji12]

I just hope it doesn't bring bad luck... With all this talk about the pre orders getting delayed especially since I booked the 64gb..lol
[Galaxy Note5 General] pratik_193:
I'll just wait & buy from my local dealer... Hope to get cheaper than what samsung store is offering..
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
It will sure be cheaper bcoz Samsung is bundling free stuff and charging full MRP indirectly selling the free stuffs
[Galaxy Note5 General] r_c111:
This time Samsung is selling the phone below MRP. The MRP for 32GB is around 57k.

I am ready, where's my note 5, Samsung?[emoji12] [emoji12] [emoji12]

No 64 gb at any retailers here in Hyderabad ... No one actually is sure that it will come on Monday[emoji20]

[Galaxy Note5 General] franksmj:
Any info about black 32gb Availability????
[Galaxy Note5 General] pratik_193:
my local dealer in Mumbai says that only 32gb variant will be available, no 64GB as of yet..
[Galaxy Note5 General] amey_shah2011:
In Mumbai, dealers have informed stores that 32gb will be available as of now and that too in silver and gold colours....
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
So no date for 64gb at all?
[Galaxy Note5 General] amey_shah2011:
As of now...its not available
[Galaxy Note5 General] pakure:
Now even 32gb out of stock in estore..

What's happening... Is the noida factory not equipped to produce much numbers?... Or is Sammy making them in limited numbers to drive up sales by artificially limiting availability and creating demand
[Galaxy Note5 General] bala_gamer:
Probably their pre book sale count reached . May be from tomorrow there will be a direct option to buy

[Galaxy Note5 General] dj_richard05:
I just bought mine from the US. The link posted by Android authority for a 32GB N920i for $589 is the cheapest and from a recognised eBay seller. Overall with taxes costed me $634.24 which converts to 43k approx. Very excited as I'm syncing in the note series since a few weeks as I've been an apple and Sony user since the smartphone era.

Alas, we have to wait to know it for sure
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
You will also have to pay import duty when it's delivered
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
In grey market it should be available in Mumbai
[Galaxy Note5 General] aamirleo55:
It is available here in mumbai. But due to less stock availability price is lil bit higher. 57k-59k
[Galaxy Note5 General] dj_richard05:
My brother is bringing it mate... No duties whatsoever :)
[Galaxy Note5 General] saj2001ind:
Ok then its fine even though u wont get indian warranty which is as good as grey market... And in ebay India also its easily available for around 44 45

[Galaxy Note5 General] max.android:
checked with almost 15 different mobile shops in mumbai...all stocked up with only 32gb.....64gb they say after 2-3 days or after a week .. no one's sure.. strangely didn't see anyone else purchasing 32gb note 5 at any of these shops... last year.. on the first day of note4 release.. it went out of stock..and a year before that i remember standing in a long queue at a smart cafe for purchasing note 3 on day 1 of its release...it seems the demand for note series has declined or everyone wants the 64gb version ?
