From what I heard at best buy today from some lady that was some Verizon district something, you can move your upgrade to another line and upgrade that line. Then at home go to my Verizon and swap the numbers around. I'm pretty torn. I want to jump all over the note 3, but idk. I played with it for like 20 minutes and its pretty awesome.

Considering a Nexus 5 and a jump to T-Mobile. Still have until May on my contract though, so I'll be waiting to see what's up by then.

I've gone to note 3 and I love how Samsung jangle so many good features from roms. This stock thing may work after all (foxfi for tether)

I have a stock rooted S4 I got as a replacement from asurion, for a S3, it's on ME7, I have not activated it. Just thoughts from the community, I am a long time aosp user, anti touch jizz since fascinate days. Should I keep the s4 and bear with it on rooted stock or send it back and get another S3?

Put nova launcher lol.
It's much better device however I will patiently wait for few months then hopefully bootloader will be unlocked.
you can try to exchange it (or sell it and buy) for a mdk s4

Why wouldn't they? People buy the one. It's just an htc one with a note 3ish size screen and larger battery + sd card slot finally. I just want reliable and fast 4g again, something I can't have with my s4.
Edit: just read some reviews on the one max. Disappointing. Now I really don't know what I'm going to do for a phone. Maybe back to my rez.

mint condition. Never dropped. No scratches. Kind of undecided what to do with it now. The only thing keeping me on the s4 is 5in screen and battery life. Was definitely getting rid of it before I read the one max review, now I'm not sure what to do

Yeah, first you gotta figure out if you selling or keeping.
I honestly don't see any reason for any other phone at the moment. If I can get it unlocked I'm straight for a year or more.

Yeah I know. Your best bet may be a dev edition. I really don't think an unlocked bootloader is coming unless samsung leaves a door open for someone to get into in a future update.

Yeah I don't know that One design just doesn't scale well. I mean look at a One compared to a Moto X, it's a joke. They have the same screen size but the Moto X is almost the same size as an iPhone while the One is bigger than our phone. So the BoomSound speakers plus the 5.9" screen means it massive. It only has a Snapdragon 600 after all these devices are coming out with the 800. It loses OIS, which ruins the whole point of their "UltraPixels" with the larger light aperture, in favor of a fingerprint reader which so far hasn't been reviewed very well. Apple integrated the reader into the experience of the iPhone by putting it right on the home button, the One Max makes the same mistake as the Motorola Atrix. Furthermore, it doesn't even retain the best part of the One design, the unibody aluminum shell. It features a plastic ring around the phone like our S4 as well as an apparently spotty removable back that doesn't even feature a removable battery. Very disappointed in the One Max.
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.
GAH!!! that would happen!!!!
I just got my S5 to, i knew i should have waited! lol
exact reason im on "jump" plan.
How do we know its coming to US anyways I buy all my phones out anyways so will just sell and buy the prime out right if its worth it..

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.

Hello, current N3 owner and thinking about trying out the G3. Curious if any of you who have the phone came from the Note. If so, what are your thoughts? I like my Note alot but always like change. Thanks

Im a note 2 owner and its a fun device. I hate vanilla android and love touchwiz etc... Lg home is more vanilla than touch wiz that would be my silly gripe. I find the size almost perfect. Camera is great battery life is about the same as my note 2. I never used the s pen so i dont miss this function.

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.
I had the note 2 and 3 .... This was something to play with till the note 4 comes out

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
