Re: Off-topic other device and upgrading phone discussion
If the Note 3 really is going to be that big of an upgrade I might just have to get one. I love my Note 2 but if the Note 3 has that you're of screen and is RBG, I might go with one. It would just be nice to not have to worry about breaking my screen because I set my phone down on the table to hard or drop it a few inches.
My biggest fear is a noticeable scratch or broken screen with my Note 2. I have insurance but still. If that fear could be taken away with a Note 3 then I would go for it. The only thing I'm worried about with the Note 3 is the display quality. If they go pentile then I'll be keeping my Note 2 until then Note 4.

I heard July and November. I am waiting for the nexus. I had 3 of them. The development is always superior. Check out the # of ROMs for the N4 or N7. In addition CM has announced they will not support the S4. Most of the ROMs for our device are based on CM. Not a phone I want if that is the case.

I would like an S4, but won't pay through the nose for it.....the S3 is working great and given my experience with the Epic I suspect it will continue.
I will likely skip the S4 gen phones and get whatever comes out the following year. By then it should have thought to text....

Let’s start with the simplest form of this: CyanogenMod does not pre-announce support or lack of support for devices. Ever. Even for the Nexus 4, we did not announce support until a nightly build was available. Further, any announcement regarding the ‘dropping’ of device support will be communicated via this Google+ page, Twitter, Facebook, our blog, or a combination of those; it will not be something buried in a forum post.
This morning, a comment from a CM collaborator on XDA was taken to be as an ‘absolute’ in regards to support of the S4. He offered the opinion of four TeamHacksung maintainers, their frustrations and lack of interest in supporting the S4. What’s seemingly lost on those reading this is that his comments as an individual do not speak for CyanogenMod as an organization.
As for the team’s stance on the S4, there isn’t one at this time, and most definitely won’t be one before the device is sold at retail.
-The CyanogenMod Team
I usually jump on the band wagon for the newest and greatest. I just can't help myself. But if I'm smart this time and if experience has taught me anything I'll stick with the s3 for a while. I know myself and whenever i get the newest "best" device, i end up frustrated waiting for new ROMs and strong Dev support. Right now the ROMs for the s3 are smokin' and the hardware is still REALLY good. I'm gonna try to hold off until i see how strong Dev support is for both the s4 and the HTC one. Wherever devs go i follow... Lol. Right now they're on top of the s3 and I'm loving it.

Oh please come on. I never met a CM ROM that was worth keeping. Nothing ever works right, my personal experience. TWiz stock rooted works just fine for me on the S3, from great battery life to performance and stability. I don't live my life by what the CM team does or doesn't do. Geez..
The S4 has nothing worth the hassle of selling this S3 for 200-250 and then having to spend 500-600 retail for a new S4 for me. I strictly text and listen to music and use facebook. The fact that it isn't a quad core alone for the US variant was the last nail on the coffin for me to say no.

first of all if a company other than samsung makes it then it is not a note II but just a phone that looks like it. And second at that price point it would be impossible to make a phone with the same specs and still make a profit so my advice is NO do not buy it.

You get what you pay for.
Buy that 250 dollar phone and tell us how well its built, how long it lasts, and if it gets any software updates.. (guess software updates is a bad example. LOL)
I have seen companys like these. They use diffrent components
If u flash a "note ii rom" to it most likeley you will have a brick.
But they do have nifty stuff.

aftermarket note 2
If you want a clone note 2 there are a lot of Chinese clones, a few i saw even call themselves galaxy note 2, I think I know the one you are talking about, at least the price is the same, the specs are horrible, no service to speak of, the screen is actually only 800x480, I meg ram. I'd stay away from it. Manufacturer of that phone wholesales them for $119, a piece of real junk
Check Reviews on Amazon
On amazon there are alot of people Giving those devices great initial reviews. Then coming back and saying Do NOT BUY.. They Do work ok for watching movies on i think . But the stylus is a Rubber capacitive stylus not a Wacom.. I would save a few more bucks up and Buy a used Note 2 on ebay. or buy the note 1..
You can get new Note 1 on amazon for 350.00 Brand new..
Used note 2 are going for 400.00 and up on Ebay from respectable Sellers..
I am currently waiting for mine that i ordered yesterday to come in .. Like new IN Box with all accessories mint condition 475.00 ... I could not see buying a new one when i have a Nexus 7 32 gb a note 10.1 32 gb . and a nice 4 inch Huawei unlocked global phone (from amazon) .... ohh i also have a Nice destop computer dual booting.. a New 17 inch hp laptop and 11.6 inch hp notebook.. I know i am bad....

Why dont you just ask this question and your other question on just one of your post instead of flooding xda with the same questions since they all relate to you selling or trading it. Plus every post I see you say you love your note 2 but damn you trying to pass her around like a $2 hooker.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
I agree with the poster above. You say you love Galaxy Note 2, but still want to downgrade to Galaxy S3 with a little extra money. Upgrading is one thing, but downgrading shows how you feel about the device that you are downgrading from. That feeling is definitely not a love feeling.
Question that comes into my mind is: Why do you want to get rid of your Galaxy Note 2 just to get the Galaxy S3?
Because I have the iPhone 5 so idk if I should keep both nd use both our just trade or sell the Note 2

Let me get this right. You are using Galaxy S3 (SGH-T999) to post here about selling/trading your Galaxy Note 2 for another Galaxy S3 with more money, because you can't let go of your iPhone 5 and you now have two or more devices in use. Sorry long winded there.
Boy, the plot thickens.
Do you know that the Galaxy S3 is smaller, less powerful and less battery life device over Galaxy Note 2 being larger and more powerful device with longer battery life? This is why this doesn't make sense to us.
If you can't let go of your iPhone 5 then that should be your device. No need to sell or trade to get Galaxy S3 when you already own one. If you want to get rid of your Galaxy devices then why not give them to someone who really needs a smartphone and would make use of Android. Just make sure that you fully paid for the Galaxy devices before selling/trading/giving away.
Why are you using smartphone devices? What use are you getting from them? What would you like to do with them? Why would you go smaller, less powerful, and less battery life device over larger, more powerful device with longer battery life? Why not look at the new devices that are coming out? Are you just going for the most popular device of the moment? I am just trying to understand your thought process.
Keep both and delete your xda account.

i would move onto a S4 if I could get a great deal and sell my Note 2 for a good price. The slightly smaller size and higher res display appeals to me. I never use the stylus on my Note2 anyway. When the Note3 comes out in 4-5 months, I think S4 owners are going to feel jipped. The Note3 will probably have the octo-core processor, which means it'll have more features. My wife's S3 didn't get multi-window until May 2013 (Note2 got it December 2012). The US S3 (T-Mobile) still doesn't have pop-up browser. Of course you can get all that stuff if you flash custom ROMs, but not everyone is into that.

I'm curious how the octacore will equal more features? Granted, the note 3 probably will have more features than the s4 since it will launch after it, but I doubt that will have anything to do with the processor. Most benchmarks have shown the snapdragon quad core to be equal to or better than the octa in performance and battery life.

You're right but who knows what's around the corner. Imagine the features Google is cooking up for Key Lime Pie that might take advantage of more cores. I'm sure Samsung must have ideas in development. Friends with software engineering and computer science backgrounds tell me (in reference to general computing) hardware is the limiting factor rather than software.
I'm sure everyone has seen this video on the abilities of the Note 2. I expect an octo-core Note 3 to do much more.
It seems that time of year has come around and new devices are rolling out. People are discussing their upgrade options.
Please use this thread for all other device discussions, comparisons and upgrade options.
Thank you

Ok, thanks again for directing me to the proper thread. Now I want the G2, the Galaxy Mega, or the Note III. Why the G2? It's the 4G advanced S4. The Mega.... well obviously I'm the type that can't afford to have a tablet and a phone simply because bills and no wifi atm.... The Note III I don't know I like it due to I loved the 2. What can be a deal breaker if there is no 2.5/6ghz (Clearwire LTE) connectivity, or no 800 lte. The Mega has mid-range specs compared to all phones listed above, its a bigger less powerful S4, not a phone I want to be with two years from now so I'll be fine with either the G2 or the Note III (depending on the LTE bands it supports)

i read that the G2 doesn't do SVDO or (the real deal killer) SVLTE, wassupwitdat?
CDMA1X, EV-DO, GSM, W-CDMA, and LTE all share the same transmit path, thus no SVDO nor SVLTE. Meh didnt care for it too much, it was nice when i had LTE when I was on the phone

Many different sites have it pegged for early Sept release. Some say from early to mid Sept.

Looking at this picture hopes this isnt the final build. It makes me think of the iPhone 5.
well the galaxy mega is coming to sprint too, so many phablet choices!!!!!

I'm guessing more like $350.00 For sprint. Bastards......

Note 3
I heard about the note 3. but haven't heard anything as of yet to make me want to run out and get it right when it drops on the market. unless I missed some of the specs?
Face it naddit. People make threads so people can look into them what's the point of us regular people having the option todo so we take it. This stickie ain't going to get no love just like all the others. People make the threads for a reason sure some are pointless yea. Some are interesting until people like you close the thread down. Its like the 4th thread I've seen closed by you in less than a week. Idc but would you like to get your threads locked?

Yep I agree. You are better off making a thread title:
"All Note 3 discussion here."
Or a mod can go ahead and setup the note 3 forum general q&a and everything go there

The only thing that I really want from the Note 3 is the Air View case.

Galaxy Note 3: Wolfson DAC & Apt-x support?
Hi
Sorry I did not post in the right section but could anyone could confirm if the Galaxy Note 3 (N9000) is equipped with the Wolfson DAC and supports Apt-X; I could not find the info out of all the news about its release.
Thanks a lot
Beng
Wow.. Sprint Note 3 possibly only to have 1900LTE...Not very future proof being stuck on 1900..May as well trade my One back to a Note 2 instead.

This^ Sprint made a horrible decision if 900P turns out to be their Note 3 and I can't see it being for any other company.

The same sources that used to give us leaks were able to sneak one nugget out.
The info from Samsung that was provided (a while ago) said this will have Tri-band support and VoLTE.
