Congrats on getting a Note 2 man! Hopefully we'll still see you around every once in a while.
Mind if I asked where/how you got it?
My upgrade isn't available for a while, and I'm not sure adding a line and then paying the extra 10 bucks a month for it to get the subsidized fee is worth it. What's the most economical way? Is ATT selling it off contract for $599 like they do with most if their phones?
Hey james...Actually me and my wife signed up for AT&T in March 2012...I've had a few problems with my phone...But I called 611 and got through a sales rep...I asked politely since am having some phone issues if could receive a early upgrade...He asked his supervisor and whalaa..The phone is 299.I received the upgrade for my line but not my wifes....(she has a s2) And that was it...I had to use a credit card to put the phone on a hold until it ships then they charge the credit card...Its worth a shot if you had it...the worst they can say is no..But if so..Sell your current device in CL for 300 or 350 and use that for your upgrade..so your not using anything....Try it ..Can't hurt :thumbup:

I'm in the same situation with my RF and SD issues. I'll give it a shot asap.
what kind of sd card do you have?..I just realized mine is a 16gb class 2 sd card...That's a very slow read/write speed ..
There was a sd card fix somewhere I would try First though before deleting anything I'll look for it .
Here is some info on classes of micro sd cards and there read/write speeds I found this...Am getting a faster one for the note2....
http://samsunggeeks.com/2012/05/20/micro-sd-cards-smartphones-speed-class-explained/
I was also having trouble with my Note and finally after speaking to a supervisor, he said I could get any other phone for the upgrade price (except the iphone). I told him I wanted the Note 2. He told me the system would not let him order that since it had not come out yet. This was last Friday. I told him I would wait then. He said he was putting the offer in my case notes. So I plan to call back this Friday and hopefully get the Note 2.

Having trouble with calls. I keep fading in and out and my wife is so frustrated she won't answer my calls. I can hear the other party, but they can't hear me and it happens no matter what location I am at.
Mine is up on CL but I'm gonna go the nexus 4 route.
Love my note but I'm ready for vanilla android with speedy updates.

I'm with wish on this one...My note 2 will be in my hands tomorrow. I hate to leave this little community. It's always hard leaving when I upgrade because of all the cool people on here. The plus side is that usually most the people get your next phone also. Well, time to travel on...

This is a rather long narrative, but it illustrates the inconsistency of dealing with AT&T. I know we have all have read posts in these forums and thought to ourselves that they must be lying, because I tried the same thing, but I did not get that result. So anyway I called this morning to get my upgrade and was told I must have misunderstood, because I had owned my phone for only 8 months and it is impossible to get an upgrade. I said there were supposed to be notes on this, and they said there were, but it was unclear whether it was a standard upgrade or just an early upgrade, and that they were not able to contact the supervisor who I spoke to. They said they still wanted to help and the fourth person I spoke to came up with this elaborate plan. I would add a dummy line for $10 a month and they could have my new phone added to this number. They would give me $150 credit and also credit 6 months of email ($90) so the $10 for the 24 months of my commitment would be a wash. I told him that I did not want any of my plan to change, since much of it is grandfathered rates. He said he could code it so it would stay the same. So right before he was to confirm, he said sorry, I would have to change to a family plan. I said no, and asked him why he could code in this complicated plan, but couldn't do some code for an upgrade. He said he couldn't and after a 2 hour phone conversation I was back at square one. So this afternoon I called back to find out what it would cost me to discontinue service and decided I would switch to another carrier and get a new Note 2. The guy asked me why I was canceling my service, I told him and he said he looked at my account and I have really been put through the wringer. He said he could help, and I said I have heard that line before. About ten minutes later he came back on the line said he had authorized an upgrade and for my inconvenience will deduct $50 from the price and charge me $249.99. He also said he will throw in free priority shipping and I will receive it Monday. After giving him my credit card number and thanking him he said wait, I see your last statement has just come out, to keep you as a valued customer, we will pay that also, I am marking that as paid right now. You could have knocked me over with a feather. As I was typing this, I received my email confirmation that it has already shipped. What a crazy deal.

I just got a call from radio shack confirming that I was still on for the 24th. So this means that they must be getting in their shipments. I was told that I could come in at 8am on friday to pick up. They usually open at 9am so they must be doing pre-orders before they open. not sure on that. But anyway.
on a side note:
I went to my local sprint store today and the CS there had a evo 3d to play with. I am very excited for this phones arrival. I think the the camera quality is good. Its not any worse than the evo 4g, I have to wait til fri to go in depth with it but I feel 100% positive about using my upgrade for this phone. Also when in portrait the parallax barrier has no effect on the screen, being, I could not detect it even being there. In landscape I had the same result.
radio shack already has them in
I went to my local radio shack yesterday. The manager just happens to be my friend because I rooted his and his wife's phones. But anyways he showed me the phone and I was able to look at one and hold it. Unfortunately they sku isn't in there system yet so he couldn't sell it to me yet but he will contact me as soon as he can if it's before Friday. Ill keep you radioshakers posted as soon as I know. But they are definitely there already.
yeah i just got confirmation my local RS has 15 of them and all the cases and screen protecters. mine got them into about a hour ago
Called my RS earlier and spoke to the manager. They're not opening early but he said since I was first on the list, to come by 15min before opening...so 9:45 for me. I wish the HTC kickstand case was out for Friday but it looks like we won't see it til July
Picking mine up on Friday from RS too! Gonna be the best lunch break I've ever had from work.

Hell yeah, I unfortunately have to work also, but not till 3pm. Then I have sat sun off to play with the beast! It will be hard not to get yelled at for playing with my phone to much on friday. The only reason ill get yelled at will be because they are jealous Iphone sheep, that dont like other ppls phone to be better.
Dude! Radioshack called me yesterday to set up an appointment.
The guy who called me told me he contacted Sprint for me and got my upgrade pushed forward (originally not till Sep. 1st), so I get my 3D for 100$ after turning in my old Evo. I was looking to spend around $500. Bonus!
Radioshack (or at least this employee) just made my experience with them sweeter than I could imagine. Definitely tipping this dude $40 +.
Can't wait till Friday, thanks Radioshack!
Well I called the Radio Shack here in Miami and they are opening at 6 in the morning . I wonder why tho. I'm guessing a lot of people Pre-Order it . He told me I wouldn't be getting a phone . Lol that got me scared . He told me only people that Pre-Order it will be getting one . I told him I was the second person who did pre-order . I'm be there at 5:30 in the morning . Can't wait .

After the Radio shack guy did the work to get him his upgrade early you're going to tell him to screw the poor guy out of his commission?
The rs hear called too. Offered to ask her boss to open early just so I could pick up my phone! hah.
Got mine today in the mail and LOVE IT...!!!!!!
Giving up my spot and keeping the Evo.
Edit: You know... just called and found that there's no risk for giving it a try for 30 days, so I just might do that. Hmm. Decisions.

Hmmmm, thanks for the info! Sprint told me $100, then they told me they weren't accepting any old Evos. I don't know if anyone working there knows whats going on, so I swayed away from them. And, I already bought a no refundable gift card from RadioShack, so I might as well use it I guess.
Thanks though

yeah, I sold my OG evo already but I have my gingerbread hero to fall back on!
So I got an early upgrade of 6 months ahead of my original upgrade a week later, the phone line that i got still says that i have an open upgrade, if there any reason why ? Billing cycle ends in 9 more days btw
If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d
That's weird, but I'd take advantage of it. Buy another phone and sell it or use it on another line.

I had the same situation. DON'T SAY ANYTHING!! I let it go through one billing cycle to make sure it was still there and it was. I was able to use it again and they never caught it
more then likely, whoever set ur phone up at the sprint store did an ESN swap and not an upgrade.. i used to work for a sprint retailer and i've seen associates do this so many times..
if u don't see an $18 upgrade fee on ur next bill then thats exactly what happened, and i wouldn't worry about it at all...
yeah, leave it be and enjoy an error in your favor.
i've got just the opposite and have to go back to re-enable my upgradabilty since they forgot to turn it back on after returning my evo 3d. but i may end up getting it again since sprint has fixed the data problem in my area and is now better than it used to be.
Thanks for the replys guys , it looks like I will have an upgrade for the nexus phone if it comes out on sprint lol
If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d
I would snag the GS2 whenever it drops lol

Every rep knows not to do that or their employer would be out the cost of the phone. You must have worked with some real idiots.
What happens is, OP might have accepted some type of deal or credit...
Then they go in and manually change the eligibility... OP, check your contract... What does it say for term? 24 Months? or NC? I suggest using it before you lose it. They do this thing called a audit you know...
Well this is what I see in my account so I think I won't be able to use

You're a SERO/Everything Plus Plan customer aren't you? On the store's end, they did the upgrade correctly. Now when you go somewhere else to use the "second" upgrade (not a corporate store, go to Best Buy or something), they're going to notice that your end date is 2 years from now even though you're upgrade eligible. 95% chance they give you the upgrade anyways because it's money for them. The people at the first store are going to get their report back saying that the upgrade actually DIDN'T go through. So they call up their own support line, which gives them credit for the error, but then the second store you went to gets screwed out of their commision. So for example, if you used your second upgrade towards a Nexus S 4G, they just sold you a $550 phone for $150. Get it? Don't ask how I know. I never did this, but I'm friends with a manager at a Sprint indirect store who explained it to me. He said the second store you go to won't come after you because Sprint has a "customer is always right" policy (don't quote me on that). He said he's done it for the same customer 3 times and nothing has happened.

its an error in the system they use, think back, did the rep say anything unusual
like, hmm it didn't apply your upgrade price, or bare with me I've had a system error
happens all the time, now the rep should have gone back into your account and manually applied the upgrade, but more then likely didn't
it's an in house violation on the rep, and the corp system IT guys are trying to fix it
I wont go into anymore detail as to what it is or how I know
pm me if you want any further info

You can use it but you'll get the rep in trouble if you do. They would have to pay the difference of the retail price of the phone and the price they gave it to you for. So if it's a NS4G and they sold it to you for $150, $550 - $150 = $400 out of their own pocket, plus a slap on the wrist.

wow.. amazing how u can speak for what "every" rep knows about.. are u in the minds of every rep??? I used to to do training sessions in different areas for employees, and u would be surprised at what "every" rep knows and don't know..
ie: employee does esn swap and not an upgrade.. employee still gets paid commission on following check.. 3-6 months later store gets hit with price of phone, not employee.. depending on how retailer operates, employee losses that commission in 3-6 months, not pay for the phone..
like i said.. i worked for sprint retailer for years and have seen this NUMEROUS times..
retailer is to corporate, like night is to day.. complete opposites..

Use it asap. Because eventually the first store is gonna call corporate because the first upgrade didn't go through correctly. They check their upgrades are the end of every month.

I preorderd my evo lte through Sam's club for $150. Has anyone received their phone yet? I'm getting anxious! I got an email last week saying that it would only be in the warehouse for 1 hour before they would ship it out to me. Haven't heard anything since.

I work there. From my knowledge none of the stores in my area (Houston) have gotten them in. We even got a memo saying to expect delays because of the customs incident and that the possible launch date would be Wednesday May 30th. Also said phones would probably ship this week.

I preorderd mine from the website because at the time the store wasn't doing pre orders.
Yes I did pay just $150 from Sam's club.

Some Walmarts carry them also,my local store has listed for 158.88.Of course,they haven't received any yet.

The Stores in the Charlotte area haven't gotten any either.. and probably want for awhile.. Sams Club seems to get the latest and greatest on the site months before the store ever sees it.. ( I've been with sams for over 10 years )
If you pre-ordered through Sams they will Ship out Tomorrow (they'll email you tracking number) and you should get it by Wednesday. (Which is the Release date).

Yea, I was considering doing the same thing. But Im really torn between the 2. Evo lte or galaxy nexus. I was initially waiting on the g-nex, but after realizing there is no sd slot (which I dont think I can coupe with) and a lower res cam (why on earth would they do that) plus the addition to the evo's cam abilities, slow mo + hdr and to top it off with an 8 mp cam and 2.0 fstop and micro sd, its kinda hard to ignore all of that, not to mention a faster processor (which im sure the gnex will be oc'ed and the evo too) and slightly bigger screen.
PLUS (caps intended) for only $150? Its like I have no other choice but to pick the evo over the gnex (altho I know primarily what Im speaking is entirely off topic) so yea, I will be pre-ordering this week sometime, not knowing how long I will be waiting.
To answer your question though (which I've forgotten by now): N/A
I just ordered one yesterday and it said 2-3 weeks before shipping. I'm not good for a new phone till June 1, so they'll put it through then. And the insurance is only $6.99 a month.
Just checked my order status and it still says approved awaiting inventory. 7:55 pm on Monday.

Mine does too, but you should get Tracking Number email tomorrow . If not then Sams Rep. would have LIED to me ... But i asked and re-asked and mentioned the 2 to 3 week period stated on their website and she still said it'll be at my door steps this Wednesday (Assuming everyone got the free overnight shipment).
Just checked again and it still says waiting on inventory. Has everyone else who pre ordered through sprint and best buy received their phones?

Still waiting on inventory. Sam's club on the internet looks a lot like wirefly. I wonder if they are the same. Anyway I want my evo lte now.

As far as the webpages looking the same, thats just a Portal Tool they use to order phones/services through Service providers, however that's all they have in common, stocking/inventory is still through Sams Club and webpage has nothing to do with that.
Clearly the Sams Rep. had no clue about the phone being held by customs. Getting my hopes ugh curse her!
Anyways so i called Wal-Mart last week (before pre-ordering from Sams) and they tell me that they don't carry Sprint.
I go today to get a few things and i checked out their Electronics section just for the heck of it. SURE ENOUGH I SEE SOMEONE purchasing the Brown Boxed LTE EVO! Boy did i get excited, so when I ask that i wanted one too, they told me that, that was the last one. and they had no clue when they were going to get more in. UGH!
I also slightly fussed about why someone told me that they didn’t carry sprint, they gave me no response, just said “I don’t know why they told you that.” Talk about poor communications to customers.
I also pre-ordered in store through Sam's Club for $149.74. Their orders are handled by cellstores.com which is a service of Simplexity. We are all in the same boat as the Wirefly group. Waiting without any info from Sam's Club, Sprint or Simplexity.
Although they did tell me in store last Thurs (5/24) that it would ship Friday (5/25) and I would have it Tuesday (5/29) because of the holiday. Didn't believe her then and I absolutely do not believe her now.
I sent a pretty nasty email to Sam's and they offered me a Bluetooth headset. I really don't want a cheap headset I want to know when will I get my phone! I guess in the future I will use BB or Sprint.

Just got this email...Sound familiar?
Dear xxxxxxxx,
We are very sorry for the inconvenience that you have experienced with your preorder of the Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE through Sam's Club Mobile. While the situation is completely out of our control, this is certainly not the sort of customer experience that we endeavor to provide and we regret the delays you are experiencing.
At this point, you probably know that inventory for the HTC EVO 4G LTE is severely constrained nationwide. The latest information we have is that US Customs officials only released a small fraction of the device last week and the entire first shipment was just released (see article for additional information). We are in constant contact with Sprint and will send you an email with the latest official information as soon as we can.
In the meantime, we appreciate your patience. As a token of our appreciation for your loyalty, we are upgrading your shipping to Next Business Day at no additional charge. It isn’t much, but we feel it is the least we can do.
Thanks again for shopping with us. We greatly appreciate your business and hope to be shipping your new HTC EVO 4G LTE soon.
Sincerely,
Your Friends at Sam's Club Mobile
Sorry but Sam's offers Next Business Day Shipping from the get go. Thanks for nothing.....
I actually just received that email. Ill post the one I got earlier offering the headset.

http://www.phonearena.com/news/HTC-...vember-13-stay-tuned-for-our-coverage_id36513
HTC DROID DNA for Verizon lands on November 13, stay tuned for our coverage
November 20 is quoted as a potential launch date
Agreed, each year I become more and more frustrated with them. Planned on leaving and getting the Note 2 on another carrier but it's cheaper for me to stay with VZW
My contract ends March 2013 so I'm thinking of moving onto my friends T-Mobile line instead of adding a ghost line on my family's just to get the Note 2.
Effing ridiculous.
Dear Verizon,
Due to the poor PR on this phone, my poor fingers will have arthritis for scouring the internet for a simple little date. As an apology for your negligence, I will accept an apology in the form of a Fedex package on my office desk.
Hmm. Maybe I'll buy this, just to pass the time waiting for the Note2. Then, return it once it comes out.
We have 14 days to return a phone, right?

lol I thought about doing the same thing. Yes they do have a 14 day return window, but you have to pay a restocking fee.
Sucks big time. Its even cheaper than the note 2. Am just waiting for other carriers to ramp up their Late coverage
Vzw does suck.

$35 restocking fee.. to have a sweet phone to play with for ~14 days then get my even more sweet phone... I'm seriously tempted.
It makes sense though if this phone is indeed released on the 20th that they would not want the Note II in-stores on the 23rd as well. It would obviously take away from their DNA sales... but seems so BS to me that this could possibly be a major factor in why we are getting the phone so late, maybe the only factor.

Re-stocking fee. Not worth it IMO, buy some accessories instead.

Then save up for your new phone, IDK. Getting a phone just to play with it for a few days seems pointless, what happens if you drop it and break it? Scuff it beyond repair, etc... Just isn't worth it IMO.
Well guys, looks like the phone is up on VZW site for preorder 11/19 ship date.
and lol
Battery
2020mAh Standard Li–Ion; non–removable
Usage Time – up to 12.8hrs OR

12 hours has to be a joke. Lol that battery is super small.
Talked to a rep and obviously BS'd a bit.
Shawn M.: Hello. Thank you for visiting our chat service. May I help you with your order today?
You: Yeah, I wanted to order the note II
You: I just had a question about why is this phone being released so much later than the other carriers?
Shawn M.: Fantastic I am happy to help you.
You: Is it because of the DNA? I can't decide between the two
Shawn M.: No it is because they are selling out very quickly and they are on backorder.
Shawn M.: What do you like about them?
You: I like the stylus one one, but then again since I can get the DNA so much faster I might prefer that
You: But here is my question, so if the stock is filled before the 27th, can we expect the Note II before that date?
Shawn M.: It could happen yes but It will most likely not come before then.
You: A lot of people have said online that the 15th is a possibility, so i'm guessing those are just rumors? I myself was told by a VZW employee at a store near me that this was also true
Shawn M.: It can happen but i don't want to get your hopes up and then it not come early.

The battery is pretty bad, but what about 16GB storage with no SD card? That right there makes this phone a no for me. All of my apps/games alone cant fit on my Nexus 7 16GB version, and thats with no photos or movies. The screen is apparently one of the primary selling points for this phone. What good is it without the ability to have several HD movies and photos available on the device, in addition to all of your apps/games? I'd rather wait impatiently for Verizon to release the Note II.
Release isn't until the 21st, pre-order starts today.
Going to chat and see if I can get the DNA when it's released and play with it and return for Note 2. Restock isn't a problem. I just got a new job.
Quoting someone from AC because their assessment is correct.
"I dont see how people on a 2gb shared data plan can use this phone without upping their data plan. Which is exactly why Verizon ordered the phone without an microSD slot."
Lol, she didn't seem to enthusiastic.
Khyiera: Hello. Thank you for visiting our chat service. May I help you with your order today?
Austin: I was looking at adding a new line and getting the Note 2. I see the DNA is out before then. My question is, can I add a line, get the DNA, play with it and see if i like it and if i don't, return it for the Note 2 when it releases?
Austin: I know it will be within the 14 day return policy.
Khyiera: Yes you can.
Austin: My main problem was the battery. I see the DNA has a 2000mah battery and Note 2 has a 3100 mah battery and that's a big thing for me.
Austin: But, okay. Just wanted to make sure I could do that. I understand there is a restock fee, how much is it?
Khyiera: $35
Austin: Okay, I appreciate your help today.
Khyiera: No problem!
---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:04 PM ----------
Instead of the DNA, I may switch to a different phone that's cheaper. $200, then $35 and another $100 is expensive.
My GNEX has terrible signal now a days and batter. Gonna have to look and see what's good to use for 2 weeks.

Just called and confirm with them you want to cancel. If the item does ship just make sure you do not accept but denied the item and you will be good. The carrier will note that you denied shipment. It's important for you to denied it because if you accept it Samsung might charge you a restocking fee due to the fact that they believe you might open the package.

You would have to keep the line active long enough to get the gift card (at least 8 weeks).
