Isn't the bootloader for newer Galaxy phones from AT&T locked? Unless someone finds an exploit then it's impossible to root. Good luck

Count me in for $20 as well. (I hope this will work for the i9205 as well as the AT&T version).

The i9205 does not have a locked bootloader, but it does not work on US LTE bands.

Even though I don't get this device till Monday, count me in for 10$ sh*t this thang needs root.

I'll put in $30, plus I will also try to see if I can do anything to get this thing rooted and the bootloader unlocked.

Still no luck yet on my side. I'm trying . I messaged some of the more advanced Developers for help, but I haven't got a response from them.

I'm in $20. Ishoulda researched it before I bout it, but I was SURE there was no such thing as a Galaxy without root or that a 6.3in screeened phone with IR would have such low specs... Smh. Please use root.

I'd be willing to chuck $10 in.

Maybe an option for the Mega????
Was reading about this on the AT&T S4
New Root Method for AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 (OTA MF3)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387577
Because the bootloader issue seems to be the same as the S4, this seemed like a possible solution.
I could be wrong but thought it might be worth researching.

I've tried all the root methods for S3 and the S4 and then some.:thumbup:

Good By Everyone :D

Its been a great run, but I sold my GNote. Purchasing a Nexus 4, so if any of you are are over there in the future, shoot me a PM
Take care, hope you guys get the Jelly Bean update soon
Did it get a fair price. I wanted to do the same until the great nexus 4 drought hit. Then the mixed reviews. Guess that means they are back in stock?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Yep, the nexus 4 is back in stock on the play store. I added it to my cart, so hopefully its still there when I get my money in to my account tomorrow. I got $400 for the GNote which is a great deal I think, considering the Nexus 4 is only $350, so including shipping I think I made a $25 profit or something like that.
I really don't like the screen or the design tbh.
I love my samoled I have an s3 and the note now, just got rid of the galaxy nexus for the s3
Many thanks for your generosity and support.
We're gonna miss you.
Another great note user leaving us ......damn
All the best too you ....g

Root Options

Are there any root options that might work yet?
no
I'm waiting for a S4 root too. Since most people did not pay the extra $14.99 for overnight like we did, everyone else will get the S4 Wednesday or Thursday. That means developers can't develop Root methods till Friday at the earliest (took 1-2 days for HTC One on Sprint to have root after release day).
@djrbliss stated on Twiiter that he successfully booted a custom recovery and to look for a release soon.

Some have reported success on Sprint S4's, though I still advise against using it and waiting for a Sprint specific version.
And seeing that it's supposed to be the same root block used in the newer sprint OTAs..

Verizon allowed most people to get their S4's on Wednesday as a kind gesture. I wanted the phone sooner, so I paid the fee for priority overnight. It was worth it, as I got the phone on Tuesday. I love this phone!

I got it on Tuesday morning too. No overnight or 2 day shipping, just standard.
I guess I'm one of the lucky few. *shrug* not that it matters since there wasn't even root for it yesterday.

Now is it possible to use odin to flash the dev restore to the retail version?
I heard the DE is water proof.
Can you dip it in a bucket of water?
Thanks.
HA! J/k dont do it.
Now, maybe we can unlock ours with the DE software.
I would buy a DE phone...but I want it in white!

Considering they left SELinux permissive on... I am hoping they screwed up big time and will allow this...
All my Androids have always been rooted soon after getting the phone.
Is the Dev version rooted and bootloader unlocked? Or is it just the bootloader and have to root it yourself?

Not a chance this would happen. Samsung knows without proper security checks we could so they'd lose revenue.

How exactly? A Note 3 sale is a sale, it's the same device. It costs them pennies practically in extra work. They don't care from that end. It's whatever their contract is with Verizon that matters.

Well i sold mine for less than the dev edition and so samsung made the difference i paid. I know most people sell their retail ones for less than full price. And because i bought two phones so they made two sales, regardless if i sold one, they still got two phone payments.

That makes sense on a personal level, but realistically the number of people doing that is statistically insignificant. I have a hard time believing anyone's 'developer edition' device has sold much more than a rounding error.

This isn't a Blac Friday deal but...
Personally, I'm an android guy. But I have to appease the sheep on my family plan.
I just bought 3 Verizon iPhone 5S's at Sam's Club for $127 each plus 9% sales tax.
Immediately after that, went to a Verizon corp store and sold the older (out of contract) iPhone 4S's for $200 through their buyback program.
Even after the $36 activation fee, the $200 buyback pays for the newer iPhone 5S.
Pretty sweet deal if you ask me.
When talking with the Sam's Club rep, he said the Galaxy S4 will be selling for $.01 on Black Friday.

Anyone want a free Samsung S-view cover? (wireless charging model)

I just got my ballistic SG Maxx and I love it. Rather than going on eBay and selling it I figured I'd see if anyone here had use for it. No charge of course if maybe someone could reimburse me for shipping when they receive it. It's in great condition.
EDIT: Please don't say you want it and then just sell it on eBay. I want someone who actually wants one that maybe couldn't afford it to have it.
EDIT 2: WINNER Congrats to DOG666 for being our winner! I'm sorry to all who didn't win, I kind of picked randomly and he was the first to PM me. If I don't hear back from him soon with his address I will pick a second winner! And keep your eyes peeled for some similar giveaways I plan on doing in the next two months.

I was just about to jump in and say I'm interested but... aw well. Whomever gets it enjoy.
I've been trying to get one for so long but I'm a cheapskate! I would have given away my OEM wireless cover, Spigen Slim Armor, Bear Motion bumper, and more. I've already given away an unused Caseology case and ordered a battery door with microSD/SD adapter I didn't need (to experiment on for others here who asked me to) , so I'm already paying it forward.

I doubt it will get to me but I would really love this case. I currently just have the cheap Spigen case and it doesn't offer much protection. I have looked at this case for awhile but just never had the extra cash to get it.

Thank you! I never knew about XDA until I got my Note 3 and the forums have helped me from day 1 of my purchase. Seeing as how they are expensive cases and I recently started doing well financially (well... better than I was at least haha) I thought I would make someone smile!
