It looks like our X2's are facing a ban tomorrow!

Personally, I'm going to flaunt mine around Verizon stores and laugh at everyone when they get super jealous.

I really think this is payback and does more good than harm. All of us put together couldn't do much (read our efforts on BBB complaints) but thanks to M$, we may very well get some well needed payback... However, I am disappointed that the ban doesn't effect newer devices. It seems to be effecting only 3G devices... Is this something related to the radio technology?
I don't effing care if Motorola can never sell a single device from now on, since that is what I exactly want. What do they say, oh yeah: Payback's a *****! Hellya!

That...really blows. Seems like the RAZR and Bionic are the only ones unaffected.

Kinda makes you wonder if that's another reason for the lack of support we never got from Motorola....

You're more than likely right. When they (Motorola) got hip to the infringement, they didn't want to invest resources towards a dying product.

Moto says the issue can be fixed with a patch which would remove the feature.
LoL, I expect Moto isn't happy to have to make a patch for all the older phones.

I was thinking this too, but it's probably because they just did not care about us enough. The X2 was a good phone when it was launched, but it definitely did not receive the hype a phone like the Nexus or Galaxy S III got.
Cool, now if VZ would update my line with an upgrade so I can get rid of this piece once and for all! ..rather than next year :/

Only reason this phone ain't as good as a nexus is the locked bl. If not for that it would be better IMO.

Nexus's specs are better too. Nexus has better ram and 4g among otherthings. The nexus radio sucks though.

Humor me. I'm blinded by the switch. Things are just different all around now.
(Sorry to be off topic)
This is such a non-issue. All Motorola had to do was import enough inventory before the ban took place to cover the future demand.
Slap in the face to Moto, that Google (parent company of Moto) went to Asus to make the first Nexus tablet.............. just saying
My Droid X ear piece speaker crapped out yesterday so I called to get a replacement and they told me there are no more X's in stock which the VZ rep even said he finds that hard to believe. So instead they are sending me a Droid X2. Don't if them suddenly not having any X's in stock has anything to do with the ban since the X was also listed.
it seems like there is a lot of "white noise" in many rom and development/theme threads lately, and i realized we didn't have an off topic/bs thread like most phone subforums seem to. so figured id start one
as stolen from rezound thread by YZ:
1. NO FLAMING.
2. NO DISCUSSIONS ABOUT WHICH ROM IS THE BEST, WHO'S THE BEST DEV.
3. RESPECT EACH OTHER AND FOLLOW THE RULES.
mods, would be nice if this could be sticked :angel:

that sounds like a pretty great deal, congrats
Just a little curious as to where all the developers are? Not complaining at all and I haven't even rooted my phone but just wondering if this device is going anywhere in terms of custom roms. I know it still very early but would love to see some miui on this beast
Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk 4
Just like you said, give devs time to acquire this device. Just because you got it the first week its out doesnt mean a bunch of devs can do the same.
This is why I wait before purchasing a phone for a couple months. Besides the note 2 is still a beast of a phone with plenty of roms to choose from.
Sent from my note 2 ya bish!
Note II development fizzled out a while ago but the Note 3 has only been out for a week so these guys need time to figure things out. I still love my Note II and I'm keeping it when I get my Note 3 (unless anyone wants to buy it for $300 bucks lol)
Cool, appreciate the feedback guys. Now I'll sit here quietly and twiddle my thumbs waiting for the explosion of roms to come

I'm willing to bet this phone gets plenty of roms/ect. Just some new things to learn about and problems to solve still.also waiting on more devs to get one. I bet by the end of the year it'll have a thriving development section. Also most of the stuff written for other note 3's should be fairly easy to port over.that and the fact that some of the devs are working on the htc one at the same time.

lbx_mobbin, the MIUI dev from the Note 2 told me he will be getting this phone in the near future and will be attempting to port MIUI for it.

So guys hi for those of you who know me and those of you who don't. Tomorrow I am due to pick up a new phone for an upgrade at Best Buy. The Galaxy Note 3 is by far the biggest and best phone I have seen specs for. Prior to, I was a device maintainer for Team Baked on the Nexus S 4G. I was doing research as to find a device I can assist bringing the Baked Rom to. According to This article, Cyanogenmod will be releasing nightlies for this device and include open source. This in turn opens a door for our team to do what we do to provide this fantastic rom on this device. I look forward to try and serve you guys for the next few years with listening to feedback and see what we can do to ultimately make this the top inverted running machine you can get your hands on. My team's webpage is Here
Look forward to it

The baked roms were always sick I'll definitely look forward to having it on the note
Can't wait!!!!!!

I want to apologize ahead of time because I kind of jumped the gun out of excitement. It is really going to depend when I get to best buy what kind of deal they will be giving me for this device, because as far as I know through Sprint, it will be $350 unless Best Buy has this phone on sell. This phone is my 1st pick, of course, but if I don't end up getting it, I will be getting the LG G2 which is on sale with an upgrade for $50 so fingers crossed and I will change the title of this thread to Possible, I apologize once again ahead of time.

Man don't get the g2. I had that device for a month before it came out. And then some. LG is having nothing but problems with that device. The n3 is 10 times better.

I understand that but it all comes down to money in the end, money I don't have at that and getting a new phone compared to the refurbished evo 4g i had a few weeks ago is a lot better. I would really like this phone but I thought the phone would be completely free for upgrading and it unfortunately might not be, regardless, if, when we start development on this rom again, whichever device I get, this device should get our rom even if I am not the maintainer for it.
I got the note 3 from best buy for $150 bucks.. not bad i say
CM11 all the way.
Radioshack has an online price of $300. Just ordered mine yesterday. You have to call the number listed for the price though, they don't list it on the website. Not on the mobile site anyway.

Some of your going to be disappointed but I got the LG G2 the Galaxy Note 3 wasn't on sale the Galaxy Note will eventually get baked but we're taking one step at a time and right now there's issues with the CM 11 nightlies. Galaxy Note 3 is behind on open-source should receive updates within the next couple months

Did you even read that yourself? The problem is not Triband LTE devices, but rather that the Sprint network is not currently upgraded enough in all places that currently have LTE.

Note 3 has no problem getting calls in Phoenix while on lte and the LG G2 and nexus 5 etc have lots of problems . Plus say you are downloading a 1.7 gb rom and get a call on a LG G2 it will fail because it disconnects you from lte to re connect to cdma ... When sprint upgrades all towers to circuit fall back it will still suck to have only one path for data voice etc .... I used LG G2 for a week and gave it to my nephew . I am not saying it's not a good phone but on sprint right now it's not a good phone

I agree with you somewhat on the previous statement but also the download just pause on incoming call and then you could resume it later so it would still pick up where you left off biggest problem I have is trying to get baked fully working because the CM 11 nightlies are not fully there yet and that has to do with the switching of bands so on the cm 11 nightlies you can't make a phone call or send mms on LTE yet

Hey fellow members I currently have a note 3 on Verizon... U know spec wise the note is more powerful but my girlfriend recently got a one max and I'm liking what I see.... Anybody here coming from a note 3.. Can tell me.... How's battery life... How's the experience will I miss the slightly newer processor.. Is the radio reception on par or better?... How's Ron development?... I just need feedback so I'll know I'm making a good decision... Thanks guys
I had a Note 3 too and I don't really miss it at all. The battery life is about the same. I have yet to find anything that I can't do on the One Max that I could do on the Note 3. (Subtracting all the S-Pen stuff, of course.) In my personal opinion, radio reception is at the very least on par with. ROM development is growing and you don't have to worry about KNOX blowing out any chance of a warranty. All in all, I'd recommend the move.

Same here for me here.
I've got my note 3 since two month now and it's really a great device. But every day I think about switching to the max.
Before the note 3 I got the very first note and now I think it would be nice to have something different.
This spen stuff is not bad but to be honest I don't really need that. Sometimes it's quite useful but I think I can live without that.
I hope that the community will grow in the next weeks.

I think i can tolerate it I don't take many pics with my phone and I did a brief comparison with my note cam and my girlfriend's max cam and the note was better in the day time (not mind blowing though) but at night and in dim areas the shots looked more natural with the max... So i think I could deal with the camera downgrade..
