The current Galaxy Note 3 from Sprint is not a tri-band device and Sprint Spark was just announced, who's keeping the Note 3? I live in NYC where the project is scheduled to go live November 8th.

Not me since I wouldn't benefit from it. You on the other hand would. Question is, any of those tri band phones what u want? Are you inside a building that gets chappy 4g?

I think a G2 is now in order.
I barely get 3G at work, so I don't care about that. My concern is when I'm hanging out and want to get online and have to crawl with everyone else in 1.9Ghz. I'm sure tri-band will not have a lot of devices for a few years until everyone upgrades.
Plus, since I have SERO plan, I upgrade on contract pricing, hence I don't want to be stuck with a device not capable, I'll hate myself for 2 years...

So the note 3 can't get support via a software update? Or this would require different hardware?

From what I understand based on FCC docs and what it says in the box, the radios are not included. There's been examples where the radios are not "included" in the docs or advertisements yet an update enabled the radio.
There are smarter people than me on the forum who would better answer that question. From where I sit, if they just did a refresh of the Galaxy S4 for Sprint to include tri-band in the FCC about 2 days ago, I expect the same will need to happen for the Note 3.

Yeah I wish it could be enabled.. the odd thing is I remember people seeing the option in the phones regarding all 3 LTE bands but it wouldn't stay enabled or something like that.
Good luck with LG pieces of garbage.

I'm not sure if they originally meant to include it and ran out of time or rushed it, but this pretty much covers everything -

As I mentioned above, it was most likely something they planned to implement, but didn't have time to finish. Go check out the 900P thread @ S4GRU for more info on this.
Edit - What I'm saying is that there is no hardware for Band 26 or 41 LTE.

This was also touched upon in the thread I mentioned above. It was an entirely different situation with the N4 and this gets brought up several times in the thread. The N900P doesn't have the needed hardware.
Here - http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/4318-samsung-galaxy-note-3/
PS - Also worth noting is that the S4 will be rereleased as SPH-L720T and will support tri band LTE. Current S4 phones will not support this and who knows, maybe there will be a N900PT aka a Note 3 rerelease in the future that will support tri band LTE.
Proof - http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/entry-356-teaser-samsung-galaxy-s4-2-3/
Edit - If I had to guess, I'd say Sprint will never actually announce the SPH-L720T, but rather will start selling it when they run out of SPH-L720 stock. As for future Note 3 with tri band being released? I have no idea and I doubt it, but I'll obviously be searching the FCC website for new Samsung devices on a daily basis

Who knows and who cares if Sprint or VZW is getting the Galaxy Note? Maybe but I doubt it. Not all the good phones come out on multiple carriers. If you want the Note that bad jump ship to AT&T. And for the life of me I cannot understand why these petitons about bringing the Note to Sprint and VZW keep popping up online cause Sprint or VZW cannot make Samsung let them sell their product, Samsung like all other manufactures of products decide who will sell their product and where it will be sold. People may be able to get banks to stop charging fees for things that were once free or netflix to stop doing their dumb routine by making a petition but they will never be able to influence a company like Samsung to do anything they haven't already planned on doing. You should know that already by how long it took Apple to sell through other carriers. Companies do what they think are best for them when it comes to their bank accounts and if selling the Note exclusively through AT&T through future deals they may have made with AT&T then thats what they will do. I understant everyone wants stuff they cannot have but give it a rest. For all we know they could start selling the Note sometime in the future but if you need it now go to AT&T and get it. You can get it through amazon for $250 with a 2 year contract plus I still think AT&T is the best carrier even with all their faults.
There have been rumors that the note is indeed pictured on springs let page right now
I will ask my friend over at Samsung if he knows anything

I mean you might see some improvement from those little upgrades but it will be nothing like what NetworkVision upgrades are bringing...B/c they have so many of the sites labeled for the bundled upgrade before NV its tough to distinguish the two....and thats IF they started listing some of the things involved with NV on that site...which has not been the case thus far at all...
I've been checking this site since I got my Photon back in October, it's said I have had speed updates at the towers in my city in the coming 6 months, for the past 9 months.
Only thing it says that has occured was a voice capacity upgrade on a tower that I would guess is rarely even used, it's down a pretty rural stretch of road and there are other closer towers to the more populated areas, unless it was just unusable, not sure why they even bothered with that one.

Anything right now about this is just pure speculation.
Right now it is thought they are pretty much identical to Sprint / AT&T models, except for maybe multi-window feature. It seems like there are updates that have been rolled out/will soon be available by carrier and a modified ROM that is supposedly going to be released on XDA that has the feature.
only known difference is home button branding on verizon only.

I thought the leads on the Sprint version were covered up by something.
There are some different pre-installed apps on the various carrier branded versions. Hardware is the same as far as I know, minus possibly the battery. I think carriers may also offer slightly different color variations as well, similar to the SGS3. For the most part though, Samsung has stopped making 400 different configurations of one phone and are making one phone and just changing the software around for the various carriers instead.
I'm curious if the Verizon version will be quad-core.

There's no need to be curious. It is quad-core.
Hardware will only be different in color/branding, and any changes to the radio chips/firmware so they work with VZWs network. Other than that, all devices should be the same from a hardware standpoint. Software is where most of the differences will be, but most of the stuff should be the same as well, with only a handful of carrier specific apps being different.

Samsung Music Hub is part of the features of Samsung Galaxy Note II (Verizon) Check out Samsung support site for Verizon version. The site doesn't mention NFC, but Samsung's support page for T-Mobile's Note 2 doesn't show NFC either even when that device has NFC. The NFC is part of Samsung Music Hub so you can "beam" music. So I take that Samsung Galaxy Note II (Verizon) as having NFC. And yes, the support site does confirm the S Beam.

NFC is there on Verizon version. And there is a hack that gets Google Wallet installed into Galaxy Note 2 and running.

Sprint where are you?
I'm disappointed we haven't head anything from Sprint lately.
After T-Mobile announced Jump, and then AT&T and Verizon quickly following up with Edge and Next I thought for sure Sprint would announce something. But so far nothing.
And now, no news on the Note 3, one of the big phone releases of the year.
No recent news on Network Vision
Following completion of the Softbank deal I really expected things would really start to roll. Maybe it's too soon but I'm seriously looking at T-Moble and their Jump program.
I visited a Sprint store today and they were less than knowledgeable about the Note 3. It'll probably land sometime in October, but they didn't know when.
I'm going to jump ship to either T-Mobile or AT&T, though. Probably T-Mobile - Maybe I'll actually get usable data rates

I have been purposely waiting for the Note 3 as I expected it to be tri-band for increased coverage with the 800mhz LTE functionality. I have heard on some other sites however that the Note 3 may not have Sprint Tri-Band LTE capability. If this is true, that would be a Note 3 show stopper for me as we need phones that will offer better and faster LTE coverage, not just the single 1900 default. Anyone heard anything yet?

The Sprint rep doesn't know what he is talking about. If people keep sending requests to Sprint for information trying to grasp for straws, someone is bound to mess up and tell the wrong thing. If anything I believe the tweeter meant to say that it supports 800/1900 MHz for voice only.
Just accept that the Note 3 is single band LTE and that there will be no further hardware modifications to the phone to enable other LTE band support.
The Note 3 has been handling 1900 LTE like a champ in my opinion..I have 4G in my house and in my office.Never drops to 3G ever in either of those to locations.And out on the road I see 4G more than I ever have on my HTC One..I'm a happy camper and don't see a problem at 1900 until 800 becomes more widely available in Florida..

The 4g on my note 3 goes in and out. I can wake the phone and as soon as I do the 4glte icon disappears and the 3g icon pops up. No stable 4g connection at all. Haven't been able to test the speeds because of this. Now my gs4 is sitting right by my note 3 and it has full 4g getting speeds up to 24mbps. Yet the note 3 is still only showing 3g. Both on the same prl. Both has lte enabled.

Yea but like myself and most other it's just a risk that im not planning to take with the note 3 on a single band cuz one day you will never know when would that band get clutter up with other customers. See for me in Miami in the city im struggling to pull 5mbps down on my note 2 at work and 2mbps down at my house which to me its useless.
I woul wait for the LG G2 but no sd card slot and non removable battery and 5.2 inch screen is a big deal breaker im already used to the nice big screens can't just downgrade that easily so what I'm planning to do is get the note 3 on Tmobile for 14days try it out in all the area's that im at the most because so far I seen nothing but good results with lte and hspa speeds in the Miami area from couple of friends plus I'm always switching phones every couple of months so jump would be great for me.

It is single band because right naw, the 800mhz band is not LTE, hence single band of 1900. Once LTE is deployed on 800mhz we should be picking it up off that frequency, too, right? That is my understanding. If you say that is not how it works could you please source some info as to why it will not work.

That is not how it works. This phone is only capable of 1900 lte. That's what it cane go through the fcc as. I'll see if I can find the fcc document for u

Sprint has stated that the device does in fact support 800 MHz LTE, the only reason it's not listed on the FCC document is because it's not currently activated.

If that was the case and if the phone was to be dual band why go with 800mhz when band41 has been deployed onto some towers and markets doesn't make sense as to I would rather go that route for dual band but either way let me say this to you until sprint shows you proof other then words their full of **** lol.
