AT&T i527 - Samsung Galaxy Mega

To the mods: Would it be possible to set up a sub category for the AT&T Mega, or should it be a separate forum?

AT&T users got to link posted above and cast your vote for our device. So we may have our own forum.

They probably will not give us a forum for our device any time soon because:
1. Locked boatloader
2. No root exploit found yet.

I did request a separate forum, but I agree with you. Without root and with a locked bootloader, there isn't much for us to talk about that we need a separate forum.

Looks like we might not get a separate forum, as the note 3 will be released at the end of the year

The AT&T Note III wil get a forum because it's a flagship device. The Mega is a mid-range device. Trust me there will be an AT&T Note III forum. It will have more developers.

You know it could be the note tablet that's getting unboxed. I know it was a wmc but hey weirder things have happened. I think that if the note 2 comes out soo soon, there aren't going to be very many major upgrades to it. We all saw what happened to the sg3. Supposed to be the best thing since sliced bread but many of us stayed.
I hope, for the note series its the tablet and they hold the note 2 back until quad core Lte comes out, otherwise it's adoption is going to be super low

If its legit, then you got a killer deal. The cheapest GN2 that I've seen was $350 but it had a cracked screen. I see some for $200-250, but I am sure those are scams. The next time you buy a Verizon phone, call *611 and verify the ESN status before handing over money or trading phones. A legit seller will not mind at all.

The business part is not a script, but a binary. You will need a hex editor. I tried but there are a lot of numbers in there that apparently specify the exact version the exploit will work on and it was too complicated.

Ya I tried that days ago the method just keeps giving you permission denied,I've tried every method available even the clockwork and root methods for the 19152 and motochopper,plus almost everything found on internet.I think its just the device isn't as popular than most galaxy lines.I understand the locked bootloader situation, but I know the note 3 will probably be in the same boat.I think the note 3 will be rooted before the1527,its just going to be more popular with more dev support and devs working on the note 3
Do you guys think they will stay with the 5.5 inch screen with the note 3?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I527 using xda app-developers app
The note 3 supposed to be coming with a 5.68.to 5.7 inch screen which in my eyes is a big dissapointment.I was hoping for at least 6 inch screen size or 6.3 like the mega.It would be nice if they came out with the same situation as the mega one phone at 5.8 another at 6.3 inch screen.I heard they finally ditched the 16 gb internal memory to stock 32gb internal. Ill probally still going to buy it anyways,still undecided what to do with this mega,keep it or return it,love the phone hate having no root,I got 5 days left before my 14 days are up
Im in the same boat I'll hold on to the mega till they announce the note 3 then I'll make my call. I have a little more than a week left on my return.
