So i came back - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

After trying out the note i must say i missed the speeds on 4g the note is fun and all but pretty useless on data for some of us tmobile users , saving for sg3 or tmobile "note"

Yeah, rumors are the T-Mo Note is around the corner however I'll just hold on to my SII for a while. Since I've got an iPad and the SII I really have no desire for the Note.

Yeah its a cool little device but its not worth giving up the awesome speeds we get on this , ill miss the note so i know i will for sure get any pjone with a plus 5inch screen that runs on tmobile 4g

So far the only true solution has been found by one xda member the other tmobile radio mods arent that great 4g is choppy and not reliable , rotohammer has modified his antena and it looks promissing ,

I'm confident that the modem from the new T-Mobile Note will not help us, it's a hardware issue, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get these results with the Blaze modem.

I9100 Porting over in the I777 forum!!!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1335377
[MOD] I9100 ROM Hellraiser for I777 (Alpha 0.3.1, 12/3/2011) [BUGS/DEV ONLY]
Can't wait for are development to start picking up, seems like the I777 is starting to pick up?. Maybe we will get some of that love once are developers start porting the I777 roms over here. I'm pretty sure the I9100 has the most rom selection out of the SSGS 2 line up.
i777 is not the same as i727
2 different phones
i727 is a direct evil twin of the t989
but i777 is the cousin of i9100 or ATT version of the international SGS2

I wish they would have just made the internals the same. So the biggest thing holding the T989 back from using roms from other SSGS2 is the processor ?.

If they would have made the internals the same, people would be happy that we had ROMs but would be complaining about NO HSPA+ or LTE ... So Personally this phone is a beast regardless of having GB or ICS ... ICS will get here when it gets here ...
I wish we had a fully working CM ROM or stock ICS but at this point the phone works so I'm not bugging out.

I'm a bit undecided as to where I'm going. The Eclipse looks nice, as do the Nexii rumors, as do the EvoLTE and SGS3. I doubt I would want the GNote2 though, unless someone can convince me why it's not too big, especially since I already have a tablet.

My upgrade is not until Jan and while I could etf, I kind of want to wait to see if there is anything better between now and then, like the optimus g and nexii.

Most of the devs working on Exynos (like codeworkx and Entropy512) can't stand it, so I think I will be avoiding that. Plus from a hardware standpoint, the quadcore A9 is about equivalent to dual core Krait, so quad core Krait will kick its ass. Plus the Adreno 320 GPU in the S4 Pro processors is supposedly as powerful as the Xbox 360's GPU. It is the fastest SOC on the market. Plus, 5.5 in is pretty big especially considering that I already have a tablet. Although, I have never used a note so I would probably at least give it a chance at Sprint.

The optimus g is nice and since one of the nexus devices will be based on it, we won't have to worry about LG's overlay and lack of updates.

Why would I ask this question in the Note 2 forum when im sure people in that forum are getting the phone. I'm a S3 owner and wanted to see what other S3 owners are switch or getting the Note 2 and still keeping the S3. I myself am getting it but keeping my S3.

Im not gonna lie this phone seems pretty bosss. And im with that other guy. If i can trade my s3 with little cash added i'll prolly do it. But other than that, only improvement is the quad core in my mind.

me to i just got my note 10.1 3 weeks ago ... but i would trade my s3 for this in a heart beat !
only in the case of being 'future ready' with the right LTE band for tmo... but of course i just signed my life away for 2 years so i don't suppose i'll be trading up ... i knew i shouldve stuck w/prepaid...
will international Note II N7100 work on T-Mobile? Or the same like th S3?

multi tasking on the us variant gs3

so im still shocked about this whole note 2 update that hasnt found its way into the galaxy s3 tmobile version yet, i just saw that now sprint has the update and even modded the multi tasking with a transparent multi tasking mod..sprint?? they were like the last ones to get the gs3 on board, tmobile was the first??i am in complete awe of this and was wondering if anyone had any insight on the matter, it cant be possible that now, the gs3 international version, the galaxy s2 and just recently the american sprint version has all the goodies and we're not even close, i really am speechless, any info would be greatly appreciated

Wow. Is that really what it comes down to? I've said it before. Just because you donated x amount does not give you any privileges to treat others that way. Or make you better than someone who hasn't. A donation is a donation not buying yourself into a certain group of elite users. What are you guys , five?
