Thanks....It is actually your Idea though...
No...NoteII is not officially released it but I have read here that it is available for pre-order online....
Is the 64 GB version going to be a release model, or will it release way later like it did with the S3?
Is there an SD card port?
How much is the SPen?
How mod friendly is the Note? By this I mean I suspect it's basically the same as the S3 but do the mods do a good job of incorporating the pen?
What are some good apps that are optimized for something like the Note as opposed to other android phones?

I think 64gb version will be released late as Sammy has been doing for ages...
Yeah....it has a external microsd cars slot.
Spen for note was around $100 here in India 3months back.But since note2 has a different spen,I suppose it can only be said when Sammy puts it on sale...
By mod,do you mean custom roms???if so,if the rom is based on stock rom,it will be fully compatible.But if the rom is AOSP,you will miss all features of spen but still you can use it as a normal stylus.
You can find all spen optimized apps in samsung's s-choice app.

Will Google Now be avaialble since the Note 2 will be running Jellybean 4.1? Or will S Voice be the only option avaialble since that is part of touch wiz?
Thanks

Google now can be downloaded as a standalone app from the market separately. It can be used alongside s voice.

So I've done the whole search thing, and XDA now offers a cool display of related threads when I start a new one...but I haven't found something related to Cyanogen Mod 7.1 for our variant of the GSII.
I hesitate to flash cyanogen because 1. it's not stable anymore (according to their forums), and 2. our model of the GSII is arguably not like any of the other GSII's because we have a different chipset.
Had anyone tried to flash cyanogen mod onto this phone or does someone know that it works?
Thanks in advanced!
10-22-2011 EDIT: So people don't need to sort through the clutter, the answer is no there isn't CM7.1 for the T-Mobile variant of the GSII and no one should attempt to flash the one from cyanogenmod's website for the GSII.
Thanks for answering my questions!
Cyanogen mod roms are built specifically for each device. Don't ever try to flash a build from another device. Even the ATT and International galaxy s2 have differently builds even though they're pretty much the same phone

I believe CM isn't even available for our phone yet. Only for the other SGS2 models.

DO NOT attempt to flash roms that were not specifically made for our devices! The ONLY roms that are safe for the TMO GS2 can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1332
Thanks for the information. I thought that would be the case.

None of the unlock solutions from the market work on our devices. If you are a T-Mobile customer, you can call in and request the unlock code, otherwise you can get it by faxing in your sales receipt. There is a good discussion of the topic here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18643213

My statement was in reference to the GSII only. Users reported too many bugs...but again that's not for our GSII.
If you check their forum there is no more "stable mod" link to 7.1 for the GSII.
The mytouch4g should be fine.

I apologize to you if my question was naive. At least I didn't go posting in the developer forums.
The development seemed active enough for this device that I was considering there was a chance of availability. I'm also not rushing or demanding anything from the developers/developer community. I also give thanks and donate to them.
Other's have graciously answered my question, and to them I say THANKS.

I too am interested in getting Google Wallet on TMO T989. The only reason I'm replying here is that all the discussions in General did not work for me. My question is are any of the developers trying to bake this into one of their ROMs? Or has anyone got this to work on the TMO variant easily. I know I'm a noob but learning as fast I can... thanks in advance.

I don't think it'll be baked into the ICS ROM like Verizon who omitted it in favor of their yet to be released ISIS. The carriers want you to go with ISIS so they're gimping by removing Google Wallet. I'm guessing we'll have to winch it in like the folks over on the Galaxy Nexus had to do. As for the SGSII, some people claim it works and others not. None of the posts here on XDA have worked for me and was just wondering if any of the developers was working on baking it in.
please use search, and install it when you find it

Guys, be right back. I am going to see if I can get an answer for you by starting a new thread and asking there.
It wouldn't be so hard to port the GS3 rom but not all the features will work. Many of them, but not all.

Really though they should strip the features out of Touchwiz 4.0 and include them in the roms. Either that or debloat Touchwiz 4.0 and make it look stock.

no it isnt that simple. as stated 50000000000x before, we are CDMA, they are GSM and so is the international version. because they are both GSM they are much much more simple to port.
