Well, on the bright side we already know 95% of what they were going to reveal on Monday anyway.

Hope they don't postpone it very long ):

Doubt they'd postpone too long.

Hopefully, someone is too lazy to reconfigure the rollout date of the 4.2 OTA update over the weekend.

i bet itll get rescheduled fairly quickly

I'm in it now. Currently, Sandy is very weak. Hardly a hurricane. Of course, it could strengthen when it would hit, but for now - it's a nothing storm.

Ah well, nobody's fault. Hopefully it should be back on towards the end of the week.

I'm actually starting to hate these leaks man. I like the element of surprise that these companies give us when leaks are minimal and controlled. Unfortunately it seems this is the method of the day. It should be more like e3 where not leaks per se but some known Info but with many surprises to unfold. Ah the good ol' times..

its not just about sandy.. its about sandys remnants combining with the approaching cold front turning into a strong nor'easter (nor'easter http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/4/9/7/7/2/ar125250922627794.jpg )

I'm so sad now. This is what was supposed to get me out of bed and truck through school.
Should've been at San Fran. Nothing bad happens here in Cali. Except for Earthquakes.

Maybe you should listen to your own sig.

Yeah Sandy...
I live in Nj And i find this suspicious.
Sandy .... SAN- DY.
Siri .... Si-ri.
Apple is behind this!!!
All jokes aside this really does suck as i was going to NYC for the event.
Its going to be a rainy week so for google to reschedule and get the permits you may be looking at the end of next week or two weeks if Sandy really causes damage.
Hopefully they forget to change the OTA's and push them out.
Displaying a 4.8 ounce tablet in a hurricane will make them fly out of people's hands like pieces of paper.
For those who took a couple days off, bought plane tickets, paid for those overpriced hotels in NYC and are there now... My sympathy goes out to you because its like stepping in dog crap for you. Theres no way you can look at it and make it a positive thing.
Be Safe east coast.
Make sure you fully charge your phones and get car chargers!!!!

Dropped my Epic, now slider screen is a bit loose...

... I dropped my phone outside and now my sliding screen is loose when it is in the closed position. When it is slid out and I am on the keyboard, I can't tell but when it is slid closed, there is obvious movement.
Is there a tutorial on how to re-tighten the sliding portion or how to take the phone apart properly? It is probably a loose screw like my old PPC-6800 used to do and I would hate to Odin back to stock in order to take it in and have Sprint look at it if I can just fix it myself.
Thanks in advance!

I pulled a little to hard while removing a case from my epic and I can tell the screen is a little to loose. I plan on replacing this part myself once it finally gets in (shipping is from china ) Hope that fixes the problem for me. Might be worth giving it a try for $7 bucks.

Yep, that's what I'm worried about if I take it into Sprint to repair. I would have to Odin back to stock and then after the repairs, Odin to root and install my custom rom - Sleeper 2.0.4!!!!

Finally got my Note II

Hot Dog....finally got my Note II. I've been waiting for Sprint to get a Note variant since they orginal Note first launched in Europe.
Came close to switching carriers a few times becuase Sprint never seemed to want to catch-up.
I'm glad I waited though.
The Note II is awesome.
:victory:
Congrats and welcome ! I'm hoping we have a very active community. Fingers are crossed!
got mine too ..... the sprint store only had 4 :victory:
Yes yes I have very high hopes for this community. This is the only phone I have bought on launch day along with all of the anxiety and anticipation to go along with it.

Wife and I got the only 2 white ones the store had... felt stupid being the only 2 there at 8 but it paid off when the next guy to come said they only would have 4 phones, 2 white and 2 gray. 4 people walked in and got sent away to look at other stores.
yeah all the stores i called said people bought them out when they opened the doors..then the store that had on left said that people were buying 3 and 4 of them at a time...didnt think this phone would be that popular..ive had the og evo, galaxy , galaxy s2 and about 4 or 5 other android devices as ive bounced around from carrier to carrier, and NEVER had a problem finding a store that had the phone i wanted until today.
First store I went to their lock broke on the cabinet holding the phones. They couldn't get into it to sell them. Drove another 10 minutes and got a grey one at another sprint store. Really liking it so far

The 18 Month Mark Is Almost Upon Us

Well we've got a little over a month to go before we hit that magical 18 month mark and the support cycle for our beloved nexii ends. Not that that matters a whole lot, but its a milestone nonetheless. Despite the ongoing battery struggles and some awful early (and sometimes reappearing) signal issues, I have to say that I've loved this phone, and at the end of the day it really did meet most most of my expectations. It can still handle pretty much everything you can throw at it, even at 18 months old, and that's not something you can say about a lot phones at this point in their life cycles. I did hate it while we were waiting for the first official radio update and 4.04, and even then I never really stopped thinking about selling it. But from the first JB update and since, I've been a happy camper and even turned down a family member's offer to buy me a full price Note 2 or DNA.
Interested to hear what other launch day or close-to-launch day purchasers would say about if and how it has lived up to their expectations.

I have had my nexus since December 2011, not exactly launch day but that was the soonest I could get my hands on it in Canada. My experience in owning this device has been interesting. In the end I have realized what features I value more then others based on the nexus' downfalls. Some of these include radio strength, battery life, camera quality and of course software is still vital to me.
The 18 months is coming quickly upon us and our Galaxy nexus is probably only going to get one more official update and to be honest I'm fine with it, as this will give me extra reason to upgrade.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Well I've had my nexus for about 8 months or so now. I did not upgrade when it first came out and stuck with the nexus s for a bit.
Then got the note 1 for a while. Then finally came over late last year cause I got tired of waiting on Samsung to release jellybean for the note 1.
Anyway... I can easily say this has been the best experience I've had with any handset. Never been happier.
Jellybean solved a lot of problems with the fluidity and speed of the already excellent android experience.
The handset itself is still a beauty too. I never get tired of those sexy curves and all clean black front end with no buttons!
The handset still runs well with no big issues. Games and apps load in an almost instant. Blazing fast still. I will keep it for a good while I think.
Will try and wait till the fall at least. See what the next nexus brings. Or that Motorola x phone.
The only thing I would change about the galaxy nexus would be more ram. It's the only small issue I have very rarely. Especially when using chrome with a few tabs open. It eats a lot of ram at times.
But all in all... This has been and still is an excellent handset. Love it
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I've had mine since launch day on Verizon, and I stuck with it after the fiasco of the launch date that was delayed and delayed. I wanted the nexus experience and I have enjoyed it for the most part, but Verizon has ruined some of the experience with their late updates and such. I will be keeping this phone as long as I can since I am grandfathered into the unlimited data so I don't want to upgrade. When it comes time to get a new phone, I hope I have the option to buy a nexus.

I/O is coming.
And I thought support was for 2 major Android versions. Like the Nexus S.
Sent from my Nexus
I bought my Gnex used and I've had it about 9 months. I love the pure Google experience and it helped me survive to the end of my contract with VZW. I'm waiting to see if Google has something up their sleeve at I/O for a new Nexus phone. I'll probably go to the Nexus 4 or whatever they announce then and free myself from carrier crap. Though maybe I'll wait until my Gnex craps out first and buy a Nexus 10 to replace my aging Iconia A500. Anyway, I'm firm in the Nexus camp!
Going by past history, each nexus device is roughly supported for around 2 years, which means we might stop getting official updates at around october..

I am on my second Contract with verizon...my first 2 year contract had the OG droid, Droid X and HTC thunderbolt in there. this is the only phone i have had on the current contract. i Do have urges to get a used S3 and throw an AOSP ROM on it, but i still think i would miss my Nexus.
all of my phones, i have tried everything in my power to make it as close to a nexus device as possible....and now that i have a nexus device, i dont have to worry about it. it is always up to date, it is super smooth, i haven't run into any issues, the Community is EXACTLY what i wanted, and the phone is even more than what i wanted. a phone that is still smooth and fast 15 months after i bought it, i am simply amazed.
and this phone gets more and more exciting come these google events, because i know i will have what they announce later that day or the following one.
I've had this phone for over a year which is an eternity for me. I still enjoy it so I'm having trouble convincing myself to retire it which is good thing. Sure there's now faster phones with bigger screens and better hardware but this thing still holds its own.
My only hope now is that I accidentally break it to give me reason to replace it. Maybe then my wife will understand. :laugh:

Oh man! This is exactly how I feel. I'm tempted to buy the N4, but I feel guilty because my gnex still works perfectly. Also if I pull the trigger and buy the N4, I'm going to regret the decision by the end of this year when the next Nexus comes out.
I might just get drunk one day and make the purchase and blame alcohol for the decision!

Exactly my thoughts too! If it works, why bother replacing it? I'm getting a Nexus tablet to satisfy that buying urge. I'll probably hold out until the Nextsus before I doing any phone upgrading.

More like January or Feb, I'd say or maybe never...at least for the Sprint variant. It isn't in Sprint's interest to push updates unless the other carriers do. Of course Samsung wants to get these updates moving because they want the public to feel they'll be supported if they purchase a Samsung branded device but brand loyalty isn't in Sprints interests unless the brand is Sprint and that of course is usually maintained at the end of a very thin thread as it is.
As for the possibility of receiving the 4.3 update. I'm always excited about OTA updates because updates play a fairly big role in future versions of Android. The more updates there are the more well understood it is what the public wants/needs from future versions because of the broader spectrum of users providing feedback.
For my own personal device...I don't care. I run what I want on my device anyway regardless of whatever Samsung/Sprint/Google push. I don't give a rats ass about having a "pure" Android experience or being the first to get the latest version (no offense to the Nexus fans) either. I want my device dirty and nasty with a big moustache. I don't want be like one of those creeps that hangs around the strip clubs but never pays for a lap dance...I'm in the champaign room and let me tell you there is more going on in there than the song says. Why do you think I'm hanging around here? Trick it, brick it, fix it, trick it and brick it again...that's what it all about.

a million times, this.. love the removable battery and storage but not sure if it's worth the [email protected]!%
Yea don't really care because Google separated their core services from the operating system so most of the really great feature are now pushed through Google rather than being a part of a new os version.
Android updates aren't as feature rich anymore.

To the ones complaining who are you going to then? Unless its a Google phone it will be the same across all manufacturers. At least we have a date. Samsung actually announces all devices that will be upgraded at the same time unlike others like HTC who just tells u that their it phone of the moment will be upgraded while the rest get lost in forgotten land. Samsung actually has been the best non Google manufacturer with updates to their Galaxy line..

I'm wondering if this update will add the note 3 features.

To the ones complaining who are you going to then? Unless its a Google phone it will be the same across all manufacturers. At least we have a date. Samsung actually announces all devices that will be upgraded at the same time unlike others like HTC who just tells u that their it phone of the moment will be upgraded while the rest get lost in forgotten land. Samsung actually has been the best non Google manufacturer with updates to their Galaxy line..

This, with htc, unless you have the latest and greatest device forget about an update.

I love how in this thread it's bunch of people complaining about how updates don't come fast enough and then when you look at the next thread in this section it's all about getting rid of the updater to stop those "pesky" notifications trying to get you to update... lol
They say December, but that's when they're submitting it to sprint. We'll actually get it Feb or Mar in 2014. Mark my words lol.

Pretty sure that you're missing the point.
The updates that we all are anxious for are system updates that ROM devs can work with, make better ROMs for us all. Definitely worth "complaining" about.
That other thread is about a fault where the phone thinks it needs a software update, but not really, or the update in question is actually not desirable for whatever reason.
Welcome to XDA.

I've been thinking long n hard about that, as an option. I do love my Note2, with the exception of the plastic, it's a badass device. But I don't actually use the pen as much as I thought I would. So taking a long look at the HTC Mega (?), and hoping that it makes it to the US... I allow myself a new phone every year, it being a hobby I indulge myself in, and I always buy outright, no ETF charges...
