Ok, so I got the best buy insurance when I bought my sgs3 from them for 100 bucks. Yesterday my phone dropped face down 10 inches out of my car. Big ol spider web crack on screen now. Going to best buy today to see what they can do for me. I unrooted my device and used triangle away.
Am I good on this?
and does anyone know what best buy is gonna do for me??
THANKS

Probably replace it on the spot if they're nice at that best buy. Also you should be fine since there is no indication of you rooting

our policy is we will send it out for a refurbished phone which takes 3 business days or less. If it is a phone that is not in stock/backordered sometimes you will get a new one on the spot. Otherwise it goes out and if they cant get anything from samsung within 14 days you get a new one in store. You also have the option if you want to say you want it repaired, which never actually happens, it doest however take 30 days but youll get whats called a junkout and they give you store credit for the retail price of the phone off credit (this is good if you want to upgrade before getting an upgrade)
sent in phone last saturday and awaiting a call about my replacement. Gave me a lame Rumor Reflex as a loaner. God do i miss my SGSIII

It was announced less than an hour ago... Once the sources are available cyanogen will start their work but it will be at lest a a few weeks, maybe month or two before we see anything

A buddy of mine in Germany received the update to 4.3 on his note 2 but he's phone stupid and doesn't know how to give it to me and no amount of explaining can help him, so I might be flying to Germany to get it before anyone else

I don't believe this for an instant....
Samsung probably doesn't even have it yet
Fly to Germany to extract a rom? Just pay for DHL to send it.
We will get 4.3...

Well I went back to stock firmware, then triangle awayed, and unrooted via superuser su. Phone still showed phone had been modified trying to ota. I know this is because I still had a custom recovery. So in recovery I restored root than with mobile odin I flashed the stock firmware. I forgot to triangle away again. So now I'm without a computer to re root and triangle away. Am I right that there is no way to root again without a computer? I have this trade for the note 3 set up tomorrow morning and he wanted stock. .. It is stock now but with phone status custom. ..

Djintrigues guide just in case others need it. I tried doing this without a guide and missed the very last step. Grrr.
Triangle Away, unroot, then factory reset. This will bring it back to official. Sorry not sure of the answer about rooting without a computer.

What phones are being traded? S4 for Note 3? Straight up?
Yeah. Well plus my ottrrbox and zero lemon battery. I just don't want to blow the deal by telling this guy sorry I went back to stock but it still won't ota update... I know I can do this with a pc easily its just not an option right now

What's the catch? Even with a nice case and an extra battery, I wouldn't trade a brand new Note 3 if I owned one.

He says screen size. He doesn't know anything about rooting or custom anything. I'll see tomorrow. I'm definately going to make sure it isn't locked before I trade and I already called t mobile and asked what if he calls it in stolen a month after the trade and they told me it follows the sim card not the imei.

Thats not true....I was craigslist shopping for an S2 ....met up with a guy at the mall and I put my sim in his phone and got a "not connected to network" window....so we walked to the tmobile booth and asked the rep there....he scanned it and replied...its been reported stolen and is no good.
Long story short I bought this S4 from the rep and decided im done dealing with people.

Hi guys, after having a faulty Note 3 for about a month I have requested a new phone from Tmobile.
They have promised me a "Like New" device, not refurbished.
But I do not really trust them, I have a feeling like even my phone is not new.
I know that there must be a way to check if my phone is new or refurbished. I have 4.3 android installed.
All the standard codes do not work ... ##786# etc .... can anyone help? Maybe point me to some app?
P.S.
Nova launcher did not help either.
Thank you.
after a month, yes you're getting a refurbished device. new exchange is 14 days or less, everyone knows that. stop worrying if its refurbished, if it works better than your last one then all is fine... just focus on testing the replacement and make sure that it works for you. if it works fine then move on. its a refurbished replacement. its replacing your damaged device.
it'll be fine

My whole question is how to test the new device ....
Just regular check ... ? Or maybe there is some kind of an app.
And I do not think its fair that I should get a refurbished device if I received a bad one since day one.
No app can test a phone like fully. It is under warranty. Plus you won't have it long enough. Just enjoy it

Bastards sent me a refurb phone, basically i lost 400 bucks in value for nothing.
Also it has a minor scratch on the screen and the S-Pen doesnt get out without a fight. I have requested another one.
NEVER WILL I BUY PHONES ONLINE.
any phone you get from tmobile from exchangers are going to be refurbs. I got one but I'm not complaining. This refurb is better than my new one. No more Unstable wifi. And it can handle being uv so much better
Also all the S pens are hard to get out. It will get easier over time.
As for the scratch call and *****. They will replace it

I wonder if I got a refurb when I bought my note from mobile. I had an issue with the phone not wanting to boot after pulling the battery and replacing. I didn't notice this until months after. I recently left tmobile for straight talk so I couldn't take it back to them. So I decided to send into Samsung even though I tripped Knox. They fixed it (according to the service website) and its on its way back. I'll test out out to make sure, then sell it.

Ill keep that in mind.... Want to have phone that is not refurbished.. I bought this one for $700 refurbished is half price.
WTF they steal 50% of the value for nothing?
Another point: Refurbished phones are 90 days warranty while normal ones 1 year...
Any tmobile USA users that will potentially get the G3.

If your on the old jump program, then after using your 1st jump and say you are only a month in, yes you can use your 2nd one, however you won't be able to jump again for 11 months.
On the new jump, you can still apply this, however you have to have half the device paid off, unfortunately.

They never said anything to me about it changing when I did a jump on my wife's line.
