When you guys pop off the battery cover, make sure you keep a extra finger on the camera lens cover. My lens cover came off about 3/4 the way last night requiring a trip to the sprint store for repair. I apparently wasn't the first one to bring it back for that.
Thanks for the heads up.
i had to exchange my whole phone best buy broke mine
Thanks for that tip. Looks like a design flaw. I don't remember having that issue with my Note 2

Had the same issue on launch day and they tried to make it seem like it was just me
Man I'm glad I didn't upgrade from my note 2. I'm going to wait until black Friday.

I've been searching for a fix for the volume being too low through the speaker and the earpiece. Even when I'm in my car with the windows rolled up I could barely hear the person. Finally found this fix that actually works. Just wanted to share with everybody else having the problem. Its basically defaultgain.conf file overwrite.

Yesterday I went to my local Best Buy, BBM in the mall, and Sprint store in the mall. No one had any accessories for it! I was shocked. Best Buy told me the phone wouldn't be on display until tomorrow. BBM in the mall, the girl went to the back an brought out a new in box Note 3! Was nice to be hold it up to my Note 2 an compare them! Didn't have the battery in, so I couldn't power it on or compare weight, but it was just nice to see the physical differences in hand!
EDIT : Headed to the next city over now because the closest store to me isn't corporate, so the don't do the One Up program. Hope to have my Note 3 in about 20 minutes though. Little later than I had hoped for this morning, but as long as the aren't sold out when I get there, I'll be super happy!!!

Just got mine from fed.ex today.. Must say very impressed,very slim(close to the commuter) barely any bulk. Screen guard is pretty good aswell,no rainbow or fuzziness like the defender for the s3.

Good to know they are trying to make it less bulky... I remember iPhone 4 one literally triples overall thickness. I might consider getting one.
Awesome ! I look forward to getting mine.
Got mine from fed ex today too.....same as op im impressed with the slim-ness of it. Definitely an improvement on the note two especially as the home button is now covered. The rubber is very much different to the old one but all in all im pleased with my purchase.

How are they holding up? I hate my screen saver...and I miss the feel I had on my iphone.
I've literally never broken a phone, so I won't pay monthly for insurance...but I don't know the durability level. My GS3 still is scratch free after almost a year...will the G2 screen hold up?
Still doing awesome, no scratches at all. Lives in my pocket with change and sometimes keys.

Scratch resistance and thickness. Shattering its easier I hear because there is more pressure.

Ah well, like normal? For sure better as the iPhone. (Even though I had only 3 iPhones) Scratches happen everywhere, depends if you can see them or not. Mostly not if screen is on.
I got some scratches from the Quick Window case (really bad design) and I am repeating myself, there is for sure a thread where this was already answered...

I did this for a month and one day i had to pick sth up on the floor.My phone got out and started gliding on the very soft fake wood stage I was standing on.After that I won't ever use it without a screen protector or a case.Get one not because u need it but because u have to be ready for whatever.Now I just toss it around.

I hate the feel when I touch the screen when my hands are like a bit wet or smth, it feels smudgy and leaves prints on the screen that's why I don't like using it naked
My biggest pet peeve is a naked screen. Every smartphone I've ever owned, the first thing I did was put a screen protector on it. I don't want a scratched screen!

little attention, I would not be anything
I don't know if it was meant for this, but my G2 (Rogers D803) came with what is a fairly decent screen protector right on it. I thought it was just one of those plastic films that would peel off by itself over time, but it's lasted over a month and still going strong. I bought screen protectors to put, but haven't had to!
Is there anywhere you can buy just the T-Mobile back cover? Mine makes a creaking noose when you touch the back around the camera.

I've found that most of the "creaking" noises comes from the battery being slightly loose.
Try taking out your battery and see if it still creaks.
I thought the back cover was solid not flimsy like past phones? I'm not going to press around the camera to see if I hear a creak. Lol
Mine has a slight creek in one corner, however, I fixed it by heating it with a hair dryer and bending it a little and now JTS perfect. I have 3 back covers and the Att one creeks more for some reason but I don't notice anything while it's in my case.
