Thinking of selling my note 2 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

Thinking of selling my unlocked note 2. Was obviously orig on att sgh-i317. I am wanting to sell it as an unlocked phone without all the ATT bloatware so if the buyer wants to throw it on tmo or whatever then they can without the att extras. Can I flash a 7105 stock firmware without issues or even unlocked do I really need the i317 firmware?

Load anything from this section and you'll be fine...
And when you sell it...please be "very" descriptive as to the current software it's running ...it's condition etcetera...
And the marketplace would be an excellent start point..
May I suggest swappa ??
Happy selling ...g

You can sell it with Jedi rom pre-installed for example. If the buyer says I'm from Tmo or I'm from Rogers you just run the aroma installer and select the carrier and have it input the correct APN.

I opted for going back to straight ATT stock since it is hard to go wrong that way. So everything shows official and OTA is back to working.
I will check out swappa... new to me so will see how it goes... have always been more of a craigslist type of guy.

Thats a very good option. I like Jedi anyways but I know some people like that 100% stock phone thing. Maybe just to see how it works Ill download the tmo odin file and flash it to see if it will run like normal with a tmo sim inside.

Swappa....is of course the XDA store front used by many here when selling or trading devices..
I personally like it...as I feel the users are honest for the most part ...as many share a brother/sisterhood with fellow XDA members ...
It also lends credit to a users reputation when offering good quality items at a good price..
Your choice of course ...but if I were buying tomorrow then swappa would be my first stop...
Craigslist does not have near the safety net swappa does ...and it can be a real crap shoot...
We have threads full of Craigslist buyers that got took...and I'll never buy there..
We'll be sorry to see you go...but certainly understand the desire to upgrade for a newer device...
Best of luck to you ....g

I ended up listing it on swappa too. I am just a fan on craigslist because I do not do anything but cash swaps. So meet in a public area and things have gone well. I would never ship or take any form of payment except cash from craigslist.
I am also not going far. I am selling my note 2 to hopefully cover most of the cost of a Nexus 5. Purchased a few Nexus 7's and decided I liked that standard android os enough to want to just have my phone run it natively.

Excellent ..
Here's to a quick sale ...g

Don't stress...
Swappa is not a fast paced buzz site ....and draws serious buyers looking for clean devices at the right price...
If you are offering both ...then a sale is gonna happen for you...
And besides ...it's been endorsed by "The Judge "....
And around here ...that's like a Presidential Seal of Approval ....LOL ...g

The device is exactly as I described it... Which is perfect except one chip in the chrome by the headphone jack.
There are cheaper ones and more expensive ones listed. So mine might take a little bit to move but no great rush.... Or maybe I should just not include the 64gb sdcard and knock off $30 to make it more competitive with the other phones posted.

Not a bad idea by removing the SD..
Most folks have their own ...and a $30 drop in price would move the price point right into line...g

If you have Insurance it cost $100. My screen is also cracked, and I have yet to find a place to replace it. Something about it being to expensive blah blah blah.

How did this happen ?
Sprint will not fix a broken screen in a repair store, unless the tech wants to do it which is rare, has to go thru Asurion, which more than likely is going to be your cheapest option anyhow
$100 bucks aint bad when you considder the phone retails for $600 or so

Thanks for you replies everyone. I don't know exactly how it happened because I found the phone like this on my driveway. My neighbors across the street were having a party and I'm guessing someone that was drunk broke it or something. I just wanted to know the price to see if it was worth repairing and then selling or just trashing it.

Holy crap! With that much damage, and saying you found in driveway, I think it might have been driven over with a car lol. If you have the sprint insurance plan, go with the 100$ deductible. If you don't..... Don't know what to advise.

Well before you go spending cash on this ET4G ask yourself...
This isn't your phone, and you said you found it in your driveway. Chances are if someone lost it, most likely they reported it lost.
I would be thinking it's ESN has been flash. It's probably nothing more than a parts phone now.

SGS III $149.99 for new customers!

For those looking to save some money - don't forget you can always pick up or add the Starbucks T-Mobile corp discount (even if you don't work for SBX) to your account. Call em up (current customers) and tell them you work for SBX; they really don't verify and I've had this discount for years (6+)!
tmobile.com/starbucks
They give you a -15% off your bill (pre-taxes) plus wave the activation fee and sell you the device for less than what you would pay through the regular tmo site.

I know Ford, MaryKay and other corps have discounts with Tmo but those fluctuate from 10% - 15% off monthly fees.
Hope I could help someone save some cash :good:

They don't call. They just ask what SBX location you work at. Pick a SBX location on a map close to your billing zip and your golden. This has worked for many folks.

Anyone else think the Note 2 is too big?

I am coming from a HTC Evo 4g. I loved that phone but it was time to upgrade. I got my note 2 on release day and I absolutly love this phone!!!! The camera is much better than the Evos. The only thing im starting to wonder about it can i deal with the size of this phone for the next 2 years. I currently have a body glove on it, which doesnt add much bulk to it, but somtimes i feel like im going to drop the phone when im using it with one hand. I just cant seem to get a good grip on the phone when using one hand and I have large hands.
Dude please stop talking so dirty.

plus you can set the keyboard and phone pad to the left or to the right to help with one handed use.
Why do you need to ask others if it's too big. Only you can answer that question. Everybody will have their own different opinions and in the end you'll still have to make up your own mind. Is it too big for you?
Another question comes to mind. When people buy skinny jeans to go with their iPhone, do they feel the need to poll the public if they look too tight? People who buy/wear skinny jeans should expect them to be tight. (I call them nut huggers... hence why people tend to wear them low). Anyways, if you buy a big phone its a big phone. simple. My gf has a big (.)(.) and a big ( ! ) but I knew that going into the relationship. Thats what I like so I went for i and I'm happy.
To wrap this up, only you can make that decision bro. You dont need to ask for others' opinions because we all have different taste and use our phones differently. This is why people should not just follow what other people think because you end up with a phone based on what others think whe. makingng your decision.. Thats the wrong way to decide. Personally I dont think its too big. it's supposed to be big for a reason. I'd keep it.

I love the mentality that if a new phone comes out the previous version is immediately outdated. I'm pretty sure I'll have my s3 for at least another year and a half if not longer, not everybody jumps on the "brand new phone" bandwagon.
I like this version a lot better than the first release but I'm still holding out to see what lifeproof's s3 case looks like.
That is way too expensive, plenty of good cases for less than $20. CNET just did a review on about 20 or so good cheap cases for the S3.

Yea... i'm REALLY tempted to order one.... but even with the 10% off coupon code for signing up for their newsletter, it's still $70 with FedEx Ground shipping (which happens to be $12). I don't see how shipping can remotely cost that much. Or at least offer USPS shipping or something for in the US....

Hey, I just met you...but this is CRAAAAZY
Lol

What colors will TMO offer?

Anybody know what colors will be available?
I think only one

The T-Mobile version definitely comes in Gunmetal Gray - I think that will be the only color.
looking at HTC site it only shows one color. All the other carriers listed shows exactly what they are selling in stores and online. Safe to assume all we get is gray.

That's fine by me. I went to a Verizon store to get my hands on one. The Gunmetal is far superior IMO.
I hope Tmo eventually ends up getting the rumored upcoming Stealth Black version

You would hope it's more than just the grey color.
was in my local tmo store and the guy told me that it will be only the grey and it will be very limited quantities. he said it shouldnt matter though becuase the s5 is coming out that day too. he even told me hey were opening at 8am that day.

He also said that they would open at 8am so I would give your local store a call to verify.

I just called two stores. One said they are opening at 8. So I guess I'll go to that one and hopefully only be a few minutes late to work lol.

You should see if they will sell it to you on Thursday instead. This wait is killing me.

I just tried and they wont secure one in any way, not my store at least. I can't miss work, I make almost $300 a day, that would double the price of my down payment. Guess I will just have to wait till after work, the guy at the store seemed to think everyone wants the s5, I have the s4 and I definitely don't want the s5.
Edit: I called another store and they said they would save one...... we'll see.

I feel like I'm always in tmo and I know one of the guys. I was gonna ask him to save me one but he will be on vacation of course. I guess I'm getting up extra early Friday.

(I had to remove image links from quote as I am a new user and not allowed to post external links.)
Wait, T-Mobile didn't put a branding on it? If that is really the case I am gonna be all the more excited to get it Friday.

Yea I was kinda shocked when I found that out. Must be apart of there "un-carrier" movement.
Just called 5 local stores. None had info. But one lady said if I come in tomorrow I can pre order it. Will have it over knighted or one reserved for Friday. Will find out tomorrow.
