Intermediate note user's question... - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Here is my situation : I have preordered gs3 and sold my HTC one x. I bought note for the time being and love it already. My question is that if i root it and custom Rom it, will it be easy to go back to stock sp that i can return back to best buy within 30 days?
Sole purpose that i got this phone is so that it can fill in for the time being...

Yes as long as you tell them that you returned it because you didn't like it they wont ask or care. If they ask you if you did anything to it then its on you to tell them yes or no. I bet is will be out by then and you'll be hooked. Good luck

Well these phones have a flash counter that can be reset i believe using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24145452 . Also in the development section, there is a sticky by appdroid that has stock flashes. Although i would almost hate to risk it. I think if you check out both of those threads, you may be able to make a better decision. Hope it helps, someone might be along here to better answer you sooner or later.

should i buy the sgs2 now or wait for the sgs3

I have a upgrade now and I want to get a new phone. should I get the sgs2 or wait for sgs3 or something else?
I'd get the gs2 now.
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium
Ouch, Hahaha that was a good one.
if I suggest that you should buy a sgs2 will you? I didn't think so. Ultimately it's up to you. Do some research on the device you want to buy and you shall have your answer.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
Thanks for the answers... I'm going to get sgs2
On a different note, you might want to consider getting a Note. If you don't mind the size, you might be able to get it for $150, just a little more than the sgs2. It's only for new and added lines but people have gotten lucky with csr. Read thread if interested.

What I was trying to say in so many words that unless you have the means, buying every or waiting for the latest device is useless as there is always something better coming around the corner.
Sorry if I sounded like a jackass. I agree with your post btw.
The way I see it is,, we KNOW the SG2 is a great device with plenty of support. I'm sure the SG3 will be great as well, but I wouldn't hesitate to get the SG2, it is a sure thing!
I love my sgs2 but if I was in your shoes now I think i would wait. Those new processors that use 50% less power sound like a winner. I'd wait if you can. If you can't the sgs2 is great

I'd say that's a good choice. You won't regret it. I'm glad these folks could get you on board!!
Looking at the Captivate, I think it only makes sense to hold on to the GS2 for at least another 6 months before moving on. Development doesn't really start to take off until the device has been out for 6 months to a year.

Agreed. I was a Captivate early adopter (the day it came out) and I didn't have much fun. Looking back at those forums now there is quite a bit to be excited about.

SGIII wont be available on AT&T( if it comes at all, which it should) until at least September, but more than likely be October (just like the GSII). If you have an upgrade now and want a phone, get the GSII... if you can wait 6-8 months, hold out for the GSIII.

not necessarily true. We have more available roms now but 75% are just hellraised, so no actual dev'ing was done for the i777.

By the time the SGSIII comes here, they'll be teasing the NEXT greatest phone. If you need a phone, the i777 is a great device.

The same reason why PC hardware has become a non-factor, software has not caught up to the processing power of the hardware. A captivate will perform 90% as well as the SGSIII on a custom ROM. Battery life will probably be better too.

+1 for this - if you can, I'd at least wait until it's announced and see the specs. One other consideration - if you like to root, load ROMs, themes, play with the settings above and beyond stock, get the SGS2 - it will take time to build up a community for the 3 when it comes out.

hard brick,
otherwise i wouldn't ask
my "usual" testers all are out of the 30 days return policy
That's what I figured. I'll check my receipt when I get home in like 3 hours. If I'm still in the 30 days I'll give it a go for you.

If these Glas T protectors were not 35 bucks I would be game, hard to take the risk on that kind of cash though.
braway said:

please pm me, if you fulfill the following criteria:
- you own your phone less then 30 days/have phone insurance and you are willing to return & replace it with a new one (or you have too much money)
- you own the at&t i717
- your flash counter is not 0 (meaning, you flashed a recovery or a kernel using odin)
- you are willing to potentially brick your device (thus the return&replace)
- your phone has cwm installed
Thanks
PS: chance to brick the phone is 50:50, even though I'm pretty confident that it won't brick...but I won't guarantee anything...

I wish I saw this before dropping my note off at the UPS store a few hours prior to your post. I meet every criteria except for the 30 days thing, but I was sending my phone in for a screen flickering issue. I'm gonna call samsung up to see if I can intercept my package and get my phone back. I'll let you know if I'm successful.
Thanks for all your work.

Getting this device, Any advise for me?

Hello, I'm getting this device on the 8th November and I'm wondering what I should know about it, Shall I get White or blue, Hows the battery, etc, Anything you think I would benefit from can you post in a reply?
Wait for LTE version or note 2 and test them personally in the phone shop. No need to rush to buy the phone. Just my 2 cent

the colour is up to you, all the rest you can find with a very simple facility called search
But if you have the phone and have something to say about it, why don't do it than just saying use search?

Pebble blue, 32/64GB .. that's it.
The phone is amazing, no issues so far.
This is my best phone ever! Always had SonyEricsson and I'm glad I chose the S3! I tried other ROMS, but I like the stock rom from Samsung more
Build quality is okay, it's plastic, but it is well-built and with a bumper I only feel bumper and screen. I dropped out once from like 1,5mtrs got some little damage on the corners, but I can't see them with my bumper, so they don't exist.
But if I could choose now, I would have a look @ the note 2, because that's an S3+

[Bounty]COMPLETED! Get scrosler a VZW Note 2 for CleanROM! Reached!

From Scott:
"Thank you everyone for donating! We achieved a donation amount of $525.00 and Scott is putting in the rest with the sale of his AT&T N2. He has purchased the phone on a credit card and CleanROM will be coming soon!"
Thank you again!
Here is another bounty thread I really like his work on Cleanrom he is very Consistent in adding new features and keeping the Rom upto date! He has been working hard trying to get this rom working on vzw note 2 without a device and it would just be alot easier if he had one in his hands to keep it upto date and keep the work flowing so lets help him out!
Where has he been? He stopped doing roms for the htc rezound back around June/July leading me to think he's burned out. He did great work with the rezound roms. I'm all for getting new devs for this great phone!!

[Q] (Q) How do I fix "Firmware upgrade Encountered"

Ok so this is my second Note 2. I am not new to rooting or anything. The first note 2 I had it was really simple, this one is giving me problems. I wasn't sure what software it was on so tryed the first method for unlocking the bootloader. And now Im getting this message "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again". I have tryed to restore it to stock via the methods stated in this forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2024207 and its failing at sbin or whatever. The phone will go back into download mode but it fails everytime I try to restore it. I am at a loss here. Please help (p.s I try the 2nd way to unlock the bootloader, seeing as how it might be on the new ota, it still didn't work. Thanks in advance!

Ya so I traded the first one via craigslist for a very good deal I couldn't pass up. With that being said I was not aware there was software update for the note 2 so I didn't check the software version because updates are far and few ...... Thanks for your comment douchebag it really helped! its people like you who are ruining xda. I asked a simple question, I have fixed it via trial and error.... THANK YOU dmonger11b for a solution and not a leaving a negative comment!

Well why would I deserve a warning in the first place....I was having a problem and I asked...thats what this place is all about....We all have to start somewhere right? And with negative comments, where the hell would we be in the first place...this world is already negative enough let alone for a forum....

I don't know. Maybe sending me a PM telling me to go @#$# myself, in addition to what you said to me in quote one. All over you bricking your phone because you were too lazy or stupid to check the about phone?
I don't know, man. Your story is shaky - at best. Good luck. Heard droidstyle has a guide that will fix darn near anything. Heard it fixed an iphone once.....heard.

Well honestly some people need to get over themselves let alone "senior" members like yourself...if I knew the answer and if i was too lazy or stupid how did I figure out to come to xda and ask a simple question. Why would my story be shaky? I tryed to explain my problem as good as I could..what is the purpose of making up lies.haha If anything that would only hinder my quest to find a solution.
You didn't check to see the software version of your phone before you went and grabbed a file that modifies your phone.
Did you ever stop for a second and think "wait a min..."
Google "alternate restore xda".

Ok the first note 2 I had was so easy root and then unlock...I didn't remember exactly what I did when It came to the note 2. even though I read through the instructions this most recent time. I know especially with an expensive phone like the note 2 to be very careful. I knew eventually I would figure it out and I would get some help after reading through the many forums on xda. I took for granted how easy it was and thats why I temp. bricked my 2nd note 2. This 2nd note 2 is working fine on eclipse based on the latest ota now. Sorry for being an ass, but I was just trying to solve a frustrating problem, like the ones Im sure you have come across.
Understood. We can move on. We're good.
I believe Kintwofan will come on here shortly and say "use the alternate restore zip". I wasn't trying to humiliate you. I wanted you to remember what you did so you don't do it again. I bet you'll always check 'about phone' now, right? Very important, my friend.
