Hey all after this weekends leaks of the 6.3 on AT&T. It's been announced this morning, the 5.8 & 6.3 are definitely coming to the USA carriers except for Big Red, and T-Mobile. Any one State side planning on getting the SGM?

Yea i am hoping we can use the modem radio on i9205
I'll be walking in to the AT&T store with my unlocked version in hand just to show off that I have it already. LOL!! Then I'll walk out with the AT&T LTE version and promptly sell my i9205 on Swappa or Ebay.
My ATT guy just text me today they have them in and go on sale Friday.

Does anyone know if at&t is getting black and white version of the samsung galaxy mega 6. 3.I have the note 1 and 2 and probably going to pick up the mega friday,then the note 3 when available. I wish they would of made the note 3 at least 6 or 6.3 inch screen.I'm not to crazy with the megas specks or it doesn't seem to be getting any rom development going on with the international version ,but that 6.3 screen is hard to pass up!!

While the specs aren't great, I always keep in mind that my wife's old single core Infuse is rockin 4.3. And now that the 6.3 is in the US, I believe the development will come. At least I hope so.

I just picked mine up in store. No white version available at this time. This thing is pretty slick. Screen is awesome. BTW I'm coming from a Note 2.
Does anyone know whether the AT&T version will work on any of T-Mobile's bands? I might think about getting one if I can use it on t-Mobile.

This this is great so far. I'm coming from the Note 2.....yes I know the inner specs are better, but I never used the S-Pen. I'd rather have this screen landscape to use, "so much room for activities (random Stepbrothers reference)."

Coming from a Note 2 I noticed there is a significant amount of bloat apps on here. Was an easy fix though, i just disabled a bunch of apps and am now running Nova. Its snappy and fast.

What problem is this?
Your leak on the original Note was spot on, so I'm excited to see what you dig up, even if you don't get a chance to take pics. Plus, getting hands on this early is indicative that they're already in production, which looks like Samsung is going to go with a semi-simultaneous global launch like the gs3...good news for my buddy who is converting to android for the Note 2 from his iPhone.

The price is a lot more incredible too. Problem with both is, the bootloader issue. They are working on a safety strap to work with or as a recovery. I think N3 is closer to that then the Mega. But he Mega is made to be more affordable. It has already been approved for 4.3 upgrade, 4.4 ?????? We'll have to see. Just 2 weeks ago att had it for $49 online.

buying the note 3 is like going out and buying an ip5s, your stuck with what the manufacture wants you to have
Samsung can suck a hole in a wall and leave android for all i care now days, they peaked with the note 2 and now are on the hill downwards with apple
with that said, 4.1.2 is the last stop for the i717, we are way over the 18 month period and were lucky to even get 4.1.2
the Knox security is a hell of a mess from Samsung for sure , but I still got hope that will not affect the development for this device. Maybe more time but not the end . all this mess for more money in theirs pockets ..

I upgraded to a Note 3 and its a huge improvement from the note 1 , the pen works really well and find I use it a lot more than I did before. Go to your carrier of choice and play with one before picking something you are unsure of. l rooted mine no problem (Im not a big fan of Roms because they always caused problems after 4.2.2 For me anyways ... something always broke.) My mission now is to find the best functioning kitkat rom as it was meant to be buiIt for aging phones that dont have the impressive specs of a newly released flagship device. l almost got a Xperia Z1 because of my tablet Z but didnt like the bezels top and bottom, (AND NO PEN). Awesome job on the pen I cant stress how much better it is?

I have an S4...but I want a note 1 as a back up. I had the Note 2 but I sold it for lots of loot. The S4 is brilliant but the locked bootloader has cramped the phone to the point of constipation as if you got a S4 on MF 4.2.2 firmware or MK 4.3 firmware the boot loader is super locked. They even killed the service menu. So Im selling my S4 for cash + the note 1 for temp use until I see what I want next. Samsung is the only phone company left with dual storage. LG has the Optimus G pro with 32GB and an SD card slot, but with the specs on that phone they will never see 4.2.2 on it.. And it's a beast of a phone...so I will take this Note 1 + $250 and call it a day until February

Do it. There is nothing better than getting a Nexus. I jumped to Nexus 4 from the Note about 10 months ago, and just upgraded to a Nexus 5. The developer support on a Nexus is amazing. I could have easily stuck with the Nexus 4 for another year, but the lack of LTE was bothering me a bit. A Nexus phone is pure gold. By the time the Note got to be the age that my Nexus 4 was at, I was tired of it. Don't give another dime to Samsung, who will spend it on rewriting perfectly good android code into buggy bloatware. Don't let the lack of sd card bother you. I have lived with 16 GB storage without any issue, and Nexus 5 comes in 32 GB too, for just $50 more.

She wasn't allowed to reveal that much. But if you're planning on jumping, do it in store since it'll go by a lot faster. I doubt they're going to sell out, so pre order is not needed
I'm not pre-ordering a darn thing until I find out whether it's got a locked boot loader or not.
If not, then I'm leaving AT&T [and my grandfathered-in unlimited data plan] who definitely has the locked boot loader.
Was a nice surprise for me when it came up for me as 0$ down and 27$ a month.
The locked bootloader might not be too much of an issue but would be annoying if it is.
With them not lockinng down the S4 or the note with the recent updates I am hoping this one wont be locked.
I guess we will find out on the 11th
Will you guys be trading up if and when they release the samsung galaxy s5 prime? Honestly for me i felt like uber betrayed lmfao because i just got the s5 like a week ago but you know that's the movement of technology lol.

actually he is wrong, best part imo is you also get full insurance with the plan.
http://www.t-mobile.com/phone-upgrade.html
Nah!
I moved from the S3 to the S5. I'll likely do the same with the S7.
Prime is just like the Active to me. I didn't pickup an S4, nor an S4 Active, why get the S5 Prime? If it was the same price, that would be one thing, but it will be more expensive at first.
i am only jumping if the Z2 comes to tmobile and if that does not come out then i am gonna jump to the Note 4
In all honesty, if the HTC m8 comes out with a prime version... With a stronger camera.. Probably going to jump ship. It's not to say that I don't like the s5, I just effing hate touchjizz and I'm tired of the plastic.
Came from an s3 and i thought I would enjoy the upgrade... But it still feel like the same thing... I will say that battery life is a hell'a better though so... There's that I guess?
Sent from my SM-G900T using XDA Free mobile app
As far as I can tell there's nothing confirmed yet??
The way I'll trade up is if Samsung has an Official Trade In program for owners of the S5.
The chances of Samsung doing this is next to none though so I won't be upgrading to the S5 Prime but instead will wait for the Note 4.

Thanks, same here on the S-Pen... I think the size will be perfect as sometimes I find my N3 just a tad too big.
Also came from the note 2. I loved the device, but I do prefer a more vanilla, or less convoluted experience than Touch whiz. The tw features that I actually used and where useful to me are present on the g3. The camera is night and day compared to the note 2. Takes great more natural looking shots than the s5 imo. I did use the s-pen when I remembered it was there... It was always more of a novelty to me. I could no longer justify the price tag that the note 4 is sure to come with when the g3 has the size and features I actually use, and your able to get them for a steal on contact at $99. I've loved the non Samsung/touch whiz change.
I'm sure the note 4 will not disappoint, but the g3 has been an excellent experience so far.

Okay...
Yeah at 99.00 this phone is a steal and the note 4 will undoubtedly be the 349.00 price which is a lot. If the note 4 gets the so called retina scan feature i still doubt id get one.

I had note 2 & loved it, but was a bit disappointed in the # of roms to flash, got nexus 5 in Feb & missed the extra real estate something fierce. I'm thinking of note 3, LG, or HTC one max. I see there's no root for this yet. When is the note 4 supposed to come out anyway

I traded my note 3 for this brand new LG G3 off craigslist and a few things stand out. The battery last longer and the display is beautiful and the camera is sick with the instant focus. I hate when a phone have issues trying to focus or just not fast at doing it. Couldn't believe it has the same screen size as the note but yet feels smaller which is awesome. The sound is from the external speaker a little louder and crisper too. Its a good phone from LG.

It's a black note 3 on sprint. I never looked to see if they had a unlock method. I just bought the phone to mess around with it. I own many devices. It is in mint condition. I already have a gold g3. I always like to have two of the devices I mainly use. If really interested then pm me and we will work out the trade.

Looks like if you can get sprint to internationally unlock it there is a domestic unlock for it. I will research more for you.

I am coming from a Note 2. I am not at all disappointed with the phone, except the battery. I take it off the charger at 5am and can't seem to get past 3pm no matter my settings. I am also disappointed with development. I understand it's got limitations with boot loader, but the S2 and GN2 had root and custom ROMS within days of release. If I would have read more into development with LG phones, I would have waited for the GN4.

You might get yourself up to speed. Things have changed since the Note 2. Have you seen the development for the Note 3? Expect worse for the N4! Pray for safestrap let alone root for the N4!
Another thing ive come to enjoy on this vs the note 2 you can add themes to individual message threads which although no big deal none of my other phones stock messaging had that feature
