Nope. F*ck you Verizon.

just hope for 12/8 and if it comes sooner be happy...

Lol don't worry about an LTE/GSM Nexus, if it actually happens it's going to come out next year at this rate. 32GB has pretty much been nixed save for Verizon's version. The leak for the Nexus in VZW tomorrow stated a WEB ONLY release, so it MIGHT still happen I guess, as December 1/8 is stating that's when they'll get it IN STORES with props and flyers, but I wouldn't hold my breath...

And then in 2013, when AT&T LTE is ready, you can use it!
When the Nexus launches on VZW I'm going to be switching from AT&T to Verizon. I've had AT&T for just about 10 years now, faithfully, but there are certain connections problems I'm just getting sick of dealing with. A few places that get no data connection at all, despite having full service and the bright H+ at the top of the phone (indicating HSPA+). I've already had 2 "4G" phones from AT&T (the Atrix 4G and now Samsung Galaxy S II) and I'm sick of dealing with dead spots.
That said, I believe it will be out on December 8th. Any sooner than that is probably just wishful thinking. If it *does* come out sooner I'll get it first day...but definitely not thinking it will.

i live in bentonville, ar home of walmart, well get it by this coming summer (planned) or no later than late fall. this is why i think i'll wait for a sweet(er) phone with lte...

Someone in another thread posted a link to Handtec's twitter page where they said they won't have stock until at least the 23rd, so the 21st is a definite no-go.
Why the hell they don't just put that on thier web site is baffling.

Oops. Well then, being that I was just at VZ here in the US this afternoon, and the manager squinted his eyes and said "Galaxy what?", pretty much says it all.
It's pretty large store, and they had no accessories for it either. I would say tomorrow is not going to happen.

Aye. A friend of mine from highschool (has it already been 10 years? yikes) is a regional manager at VZW and he said he still doesn't have a date, but he also said Verizon probably won't tell the employees until it's very close to release because (in his words, not mine) Verizon employees don't have a track record for keeping their lips shut. He did promise me that he doesn't know when the date is and that he would tell me when he does.

That's why I ditched At&t for T-Mobile. At home I have full bars but can't hold a call for nothing. My gf has at&t still and I can never hardly get a hold of her.
We had 4 people over once and we all had full bars but none of us could call out to order a pizza. My friends have labeled my area a cellular black hole. Most of my nieghbors have recently switched too.
T-Mobile works fine but not on the road so much. My work verizon blackberry seems to always work everywhere I go. So I'm thinking of upgrading the blackberry and get rid of my personal line on TMo.
I don't have extra money till Friday so doesn't matter to me. I'm gonna wait it out for a few after release to allow others to figure it out. I want to make sure its gonna suffice. I'm kinda leery of dopey relying on Verizon cause I tether my Asus Transformer when I travel and like to play with it alot.
LTE doesn't bother me. Ill just disable it most of the time to save battery. 3G is fast enough for me for day to day stuff.
G2x - 2.3.7 CM7
Transformer - 3.2 Revolver OC/UV

[Q] Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo i got options... finally.

Hey everyone !
Finally became a member after so much reading day after day for updates for months n months! lol... I finally got fed up with hiding in the corner to make a call...so i called sprint and they offered me a early upgrade to an LTE device. Ive only had this phone for about 4 months so its very tempting. Its funny because its not only sprint.. its att,tmobile,metro,verizon... zero signal in my house..... but walk next door house or in the middle of the street i get full bars ...4g 3g all kinds of gs.t What does everyone think go or no go? I love this phone I can do everything that I can think of without of a need of almost any particular electronic device except get signal.. lol

Well if you are going to try another Sprint device, remember you only have 14 days to return it. I can't say that any has vastly superior signal strength but hey, you won't know if you don't try I guess. I thought my ET4G was flawless at home in California but when I get into NYC, the low signal performance is actually irritating the hell out of me. I have been using my NS4G in the city lately

You might be able to get an airave for free from sprint. It's like your own mini cell tower for your home.

@JohnCorleone Well I kinda have to since its either that or pay the cancellation fee. First two weeks it was fine few times it roamed.. but I thought it was because of the weather since it was pretty bad during that time. Sprint does have the best price though for now... kinda scared of the whole new TEP prices people were talking about. Is there a huge difference between phones for you as far as signal for you in nyc?
@Sn1per 117 They told me about that but first 3 reps wanted to charge me for the device and the service and said there was no other choice but to pay cancellation or just wait for "upgrades" since my phone was multiband it was capable of the new lte... that's when i hanged up and called again lol. Finally i spoke to someone in spanish and he told me he would approve me for an early upgrade just to go to a corporate store since it could only be done in store It's a upgrade program they're trying out in select cities and I would only have to pay $55

New York is insane! I can walk 10 feet and have 10Mbps 4g then walk another 10 feet and have 1 bar of 3g. In California I always have 8-10Mbps 4g.

Yeah but one thing kills me...actually 2. When I am in a lower level of Port Authority EVERYBODY seems to be using their phone and I have trouble keeping signal. And does every woman in New York have an iPhone or what? I see at least 20 iPhones to every Android...and at least 2 women a day drop their iPhone. Its a given

He was offered the Buyout option. He just bought out the remainder of his contract for early upgrade. This is fairly common, we do it in store daily. Contract end date is the same, just upgrade was pushed forward.

LOL, yea its pretty bad out there but its a bandwagon thing since half the women I know that have the IPhone have no idea why they have it other than one of their other friends have it.
Must admit where my house is in Long Island the main streets is lit up with wifi and if you have a cable account you can connect for free but the 4g speeds are pretty consistent throughout even in basements I picked up 10meg download. So those damn old/tall buildings are definitely messing your great signal up
Edit: my bad OP keep slapping them up till they give you an AirRave I got one and it works great. Also only upgrade if you think it will help your signal and LTE for Sprint is not officially out so not sure if one of those new phones would really help you

New to T-Mobile, picking up GSIII tomorrow, worried about signal?

Apparently the device suffers from death grip when you grip the left side of the phone. However, the device is not dropping the signal completely, its just going to EDGE. T-Mobile has very good coverage here but I am worried about this issue.
Can anyone comment on this? Is this likely to be corrected in an OTA update? I left T-Mobile last year for the iPhone 4S on AT&T and that was a mistake in more ways than one.
I also tried out AT&T's Galaxy S III and found it to be excellent. LTE speeds weren't that great in my area but nonetheless, it was a very good device. The signal on the AT&T version seemed fine.
If I go back to T-Mobile tomorrow, I don't want a device with a poor signal. Never good to have.

How is T-Mobile coverage by you?

I think the whole "death grip" issue was a myth.

nothing on my end case or not no matter how I hold it, it won't drop from 4g to 2g.

Don't get the phone from the t-mobile store. You can get the 16gb for 199$ on wirefly, Wal-Mart, and target. While t-mobile is charging 279$ + 50$ rebate + 30$ activation + tax, roughly around 380$.

A lot of people are having this issue. Dial *#*#464636#*#* and choose device info then change the signal tobwcdma only. It will drop down the edge way less.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

The issue is when you're in an area where you are maybe getting 2 or less bars with 4g and if you hold the phone with your left it will eventually go to edge. Typically when your dbm signal is 95 or higher. But It won't happen if you have good 4g signal with 3-4 bars. So those that aren't having an issue are getting good signal already. Which Avg about 70dbm.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

I've seen no issue no matter how I hold the thing. Or maybe I'm not understanding the issue.
Does it only happen when you hold it with your right hand, and more fingers are on the left side of the phone? I've tried every way I can think of, and with the case off, I get no change in bars or service level no matter how I hold it.

T-Mobile Note II Release and LTE

I work at T-Mobile and we received our Titanium Gray demo model today. We also received two units to sell on October 24th. My manager also happens to be the regional sales manager, and has confirmed the release date of October 24th. While looking at the box on the back it has the following bands listed 2100, 1900, 1800, 1700, 900, and 850. I could be wrong but isn't the 2100 and the 1700mhz band used for LTE?

You only got two to sell?? with no presales or anythings its first come first serve for just two units? i hope that isn't customary for all tmobile stores?

Yeah it sucks. Supposedly we are getting some tomorrow but I doubt it. Especially considering that I will be buying one of them. I also called a few other stores and they all only have the titanium gray. So who knows whats going on as far as colors.

I stopped by a T-mobile on the way home from class tonight and they're still thinking it could be any time before Black Friday. It certainly seems like the T-Mobile launch will be very much a YMMV type of deal.

T-mo getting devices ready to sell on the 24th
according to the examiner
http://www.examiner.com/article/samsung-galaxy-note-2-arrives-at-t-mobile-stores

I went to a t-mobile today to get the isis sim and they were playing with the demo. I played with it and it was very nice. They also said they are selling it on wed. However, they wouldn't tell me the price.

For those who have access to a US one now, is there an FM radio chip/app? EDIT: Also, does it have multi-view out of the box? I'll be upset if we have to wait for an update cause it's definitely going to take a while.

Can you see if they are Exynos processors? I looked on T-Mo support pages and they have it marked as Qualcomm quad core.

99% sure its an exynos I can get a screenie tomorrow. The one we have does not have multitasking
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium

Thanks Knils. I suspected as much about the multi-view since the same thing happened with other countries, but their updates were much faster since their phones don't come loaded with carrier software. Can you check to see if there's FM radio tomorrow? EDIT: Also, is wifi calling present?

Will this be a midnight release sort of affair?

Yes I will check that out for you. Glad to help.

Thanks for the quick reply! You wouldnt happen to be working in Georgia now would you?! haha, ill inquire at my local store. Now im hoping that they will be carrying the white model. I'd be pretty bummed since i kinda hyped myself up

Hey guys, do we have confirmation on the LTE radio there but not in use?
I'm in NYC, and I sure hope they have more than 2! lol.
Also, i'm a bit confused by the specs of the HSPA+. I keep reading about 21Mbps and haven't found any that state 42Mbps. Anyone know the details?

One of my local stores in Brandon, Fl only has 3 to sell.

If I remember correctly the back of the box does state it as being 42mbps. I knew I should have been taking photos of the note not with the note. I actually live in the northern Utah area and at least in my area alot of stores have a fairly limited stock.

Ok so i live in baltimore but work in silver spring minutes outside DC. When im in Baltimore my phone works fine data and calling. But as soon as i get in silver spring my phone gos crazy. In and out of servive. I get messages that wont download. People call and i never get it. And voicemails dont come in until i leave and head back to baltimore. I had my s3 and my note 2 checked by the tech at the corporate store and they said my phones are fine. This has been going on since August.
So ive been calling sprint since i 1st noticed the problem in August and everytime its the same story. They tell me theres a bad tower servicing that area that has an open ticket. And that i can expect the problem to be fixed in a few days. I called today and got the same BS. Can someone who maybe works for sprint or knows more info tell me exzactly whats going on and what i should do? Ive been with sprint 11 years and put up with alot but its to the point my jobs in jeopardy. Im not getting calls from other employees or my boss. I drop calls all the time. The tech said i had a 21% dropped call rate.
I really dont want to leave sprint but i spend about 9 hrs a day in sipver spring and my phones useless there. I have 3 lines that the contracts up on in march. My etf fee on each line is only $50 but heck i could sell my e4gt and pay that plus have a note 2 and gs3 to sell. Should i demand a credit? How many other people in that area are having this problem? Whats everyone elses thoughts?

I agree. DC Sprint service sucks.

I live right outside dc northern va and I noticed they are working on towers to get 4g there so that might be the reason

i've started getting 4g around the lorton va area and i get it good at work BUT it still seems like 3g since the towers are being upgraded can't wait till they are atleast 50%

I thought it was bc of the upgrades also but when they did it in baltimore last summer it only acted up for maybe a month. This has been goin on since august in silver spring. They keep tellin me its a damged tower it has an open ticket but nothins getting fixed

Wish my service was like that, that would mean there were firing up the upgraded equipment at several sites here.

Yeah. I didn't try voice, but I was trying to navigate with maps and it was not working at all. This was over a pretty large area as well, not just downtown Silver Spring.
I will give Sprint a call and pile another complaint on for you. I'll report back with what they say.
