Went to BB today and talked to the Phone manager guy and he said he hadn't seen/heard of any white ones coming in the warehouse so they could be arriving later on in September. But then again he hadn't even heard of the white/silver one in the first place so I believe him like I believe everything on the internet.

If I got it, it would just be covered up by a case like all my phones have been lol... Happy with good ol' black!

All my phones have been naked. I am super careful with them. Only dropped Inc once and damaged the camera ring.

I hope this means that the pitiful local best buy might actually start carrying some inc2 accessories now.

I asked that a while back, but the answer I got was no since there doesn't seem to be one sized for us.

Just found out that despite paying insurance every month, I have to pay a $99 "deductible " which I at first thought was a Halloween joke.

I watched one as well. Does look a little involved to say the least. I'd give it a try though, but I've always liked taking stuff apart and putting it back together. Biggest thing that looks like a pain, would be heating the glass to remove it
I have a heat gun, and I know how hot it gets, I can imagine that peeling the glass off may not be real fun. Gloves come to mind

Taking all that stuff apart though is my worry. I'm software savy not hardware and I just know il break something. A cracked phone is better than no phone

Deductible is 130 so you're not paying much more at 177

Thanks. This is good to know in the future. Im past my 14 days already so I wasnt able to add Tmo insurance but $177 isnt bad at all. But I assume you have to send it in and I wonder how long that would take. That's the only drawback but still better non the less. Did you call samsung support or did you chat with them? Also Tmo will cover software issues for 1 year for free but you just have to pay $20 to get a replacement, and after you get a replacement they will ask if you want to add insurance. Once you have tmo insurance then its $5 for software issues and $130 for physical damage as that goes through Asurion and not Tmobile technically. So thats another route if you didnt get it within 14 days of your contract. I Know its too late now but once your phone is fixed you have that option still.
I'm thinking about going through Squaretrade insurance too but you also have to send them the phone for repair. Its avg about $5 a month with their 2 yr insurance plan. But I dont recall if there's a certain period that you have to apply. It might be 30 days within your contract. I have to double check.
Here's the one for squaretrade with $99 deductible

when they replace the screen they replace the benzel too to probably your repaired phone won't show any signs of repair.

But do u think my phone will suffer performance wise. Thats what im worried about.

Not at all if it is just screen damage which u say it is then they are literally going to unscrew the screws on back take the board out replace screen put motherboard back in and that's that. I'll tell u what let them do it. There is a little more involved to it then that won't get into detail but I did two friends screens and the one kid wanted the black face or the dark face(screen that's on pebble blue) on his white gs3 and it was a *****. Taking the board camera, connectors all that was easy....its the glue that holds the screen to the actual housing that is hard to get off. And u have to get it all off for screen to sit in there nicely anyways he liked the job I did it actually looked cool minus the white home button. Anyways good luck send it to Samsung now but after go with ensquared or squaretrade

Hi,
What about buying the screen from ebay and trying to replace it yourself? It might be a little complicated and hard without having proper skills but you can try it out.
I have owned an iphone 3gs in a past and once when I cracked the screen I replaced it myself saving lots of money. It worked just fine. You can give it a try but I'm not really sure how hard it is on samsung.
And yeah, it was a digitized, and a display itself

Anyone care? I will be sticking to the GS3 because the size is just where I like it anything biger would probably be too much...

EDIT: I just read it will have a 1.6ghz Qua core Exynos CPU... I may very well want that in my life!

Take it from me you'll get use to it fairly easy, and whoever said they couldn't fit a note in their pocket is lying, I normally wear skinny jeans and never had a issue with the original note. Only thing I will say is that it will look fairly ridiculous holding it up to your ear to talk, but I've never been one to worry about what people say or think, and I got plenty of compliments about the phone on a daily basis while commuting in the city.

Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

im very interested in this and conflicted on what to do...
i never even held the original note, but i dont mind the bigger size at all... the more the better to me, and with those specs, wooooo...
might have to hold onto one in the store before deciding what to do...

One thing I'm looking forward to is the stylus, I haven't had one since the touch pro 2, I liked it a lot. Less fingerprints, but I don't like how it's on the Bottom? why would they make it come out of the bottom, it's going to wear out and simply fall out eventually... kinda stupid but whatever...

Yup, I'll be selling my S2 and S3 to pick one up as soon as they come out!

Home button little lose?

Does anyone else's home button seem loose after using it for a while? Mine rattles slightly when touching it. I'm not sure if that's just the way it is or if it has come lose. I can't seem to find the way the home button is put together in the inside as there's not too many tear down pics on the net that even show it. Just debating if this will be an issue down the road and needs to be returned before my 14 days are up.
Thanks

Yes, I'm pretty anal about babying my phones. I'm not sure like I said if it should have a little rattle like that or if mine has a slight defect. I'm not wanting to exchange it, but, for what I paid for this phone I just don't want problems later on and have to deal with getting refurbs from assuron! That's why I was asking here to see if it's pretty much the norm. Thanks for the reply.

I bought mine around noon the day they came out, my button is still completely firm. Not sure how much relative abuse it has taken though. Seems pretty weird to me that it could be rattling, as it feels like it is a pretty solid fit. But maybe we will all be complaining about this soon enough.
