Picked up a note III demo (Continued) - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

I didn't have a chance to reply to this thread thats why I wanted to continue it. I have been playing with a demo of this device for about two weeks now. Its not for t-mobile but for another carrier (not international). Please take a look at the screen shot you guys were asking for. The home button is a finger print scanner and has the USB3 port.

Wait really? A fingerprint scanner!?!? Thanks for the pic btw!!

No body is forcing you to believe anything. The housing of the device Im using is not the final product so even if I uploaded a pic of the device you still wouldn't believe is the Note3.

I wish they hadn't closed the other thread started by Admiral Sir Manley Power. He has a pretty good rep in the Note 2 forums and I give him the benefit of the doubt. Besides, it's been know that Samsung has shipped units of the Note 3 to carriers for testing. From what I've read, they shipped 3 or 4 different versions so the final product hasn't been decided yet.

Also forgot to mention, the speaker is now on the bottom, between the pen hole and the usb port!!!!!! Very excited about that!!

It doesn't matter; please upload a picture with your username written on a paper by the device. This is standard procedure for proving you have/own a device.

My job will be compromised if I do that. Please understand that I signed a confidentiality letter from samsung. Believe me when I say that the housing is not the final product, so posting a picture is pretty much worthless.

Do you own a Note 2? The Note2 has the speaker on the back, not the bottom.

Im assuming the final product is going to look like a big GS4. Since the Mega already looks like that, I really thing the Note3 is going to follow that look.

Can you list specs of hardware and software... N2 vs. N3(the prototypes that you have)?

In the past thread you guys asked for a screen shot of the app provided. I took the screen shot and posted it, but now thats not good enough. I don't need to proof nothing to no one. If you guys want to believe that the release of the Note 3 is near fine, if not, then fine with me as well. As for me, this thread can be closed as well. I don't even know why I tried.

Mr. Moderator - PLEASE DON'T CLOSE THIS THREAD. I'm interested in hearing whatever I can about the Note 3 that isn't conjecture. If some can't understand why pictures can't be posted then **** them. I'll take what ever cab be provided.

I wanted the screenshot and its enough for me. I believe this guy 100%. Specs and the fact that it identifies the device in the app is genuine. No he should not compromise his job for a stupid pic.
I have the iphone 5 ios 7. And carry around and people dont believe me when i tell it is the actual ios 7. They ask all these questions with tangible evidence in my hand and they still wont believe me. All you need is evidence mate. If you have evidence and they still wont bite... then they are ignorant

This, a million times. A mod should just lock the thread because:
- OP is breaking his NDA (Non-disclosure agreement) ---> Legal issues
- It could or could not be fake; we have no way or proving either
- It's just going to start a war between people who believe and those who don't
Seriously, just wait for the damn thing to come out. When I worked for Sprint and Verizon, we'd have reps from every manufacturer come in to show us upcoming devices. I once asked an HTC rep if they (the company itself) were behind the numerous and convenient leaks out on the internet, and the guy said "Yes, some of them."
This thing is going to leak one way or another. So just lock the thread.

As this is not a Note II it can be discussed in the other device sticky
Although I do not see the point
Stating you have something that you cannot prove or show or talk too much about is taunting not development
It would be different if there was a near release date but there are no release dates as of yet.

[FILE] System.4ext.tar

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU DOWNLOAD THIS FILE AND START MOVING THINGS ON TO YOUR PHONE IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING.
System.4ext.tar (zipped)http://d-h.st/6hg​
Pulled from my stock Nandroid backup.
Requested by reviewers, I figured I'd post it in the open as well in case anybody else needs the file.
File is large (657MB) and contains all system files for the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy SIII (T-999). I've compressed it (BEST setting), I believe the actual file size is 994MB, to try and make the download/upload a bit less harsh.​
Is there a way to see the actual progress of a dropbox upload?
Since the file is so large, it required I use the desktop feature. I dropped it in the dropbox folder on my PC and it started syncing (toolbar icon shows upload speed and current time....but it has said 1hr since I started. The speed keeps moving, so I know it's working, but it has been over an hour since I started).
I'm wondering if it was closer to 2hr.
Sorry it's taking so long guys.
EDIT- As SOON as I posted this, my toolbar icon displays 59 minutes lol. It's getting there!
im waiting:good:

I don't know him at all, or probably anyone in this portion of the community. He asked me for the file, otherwise I would have had no clue it was even valuable to anyone. I felt since he asked for me to keep it exclusive for the time being, it would be fair to do so, but only for this weekend.
If this is against the rules, however, please let me know and I'll fix that.
He asked me via PM so I was just keeping my word.

Yeah, after getting several PMs about the situation, I'm going to return the link to the page.
It appears (from what I'm getting) that he was upset he did not get the phone yet and was trying to gain access to building a ROM before anyone else.
This is an open community and the more development opportunities, the better
Sorry for the whole situation, the link is back up.

False, I never not produce anything that's "not functional" so relax besides 1 thing we're calling was glitched. It was passed then get over it. I learned much since then.

I had a 3M one for my Incredible, it was PERFECT! Did exactly what I needed to, to stop nearby lookers peaking at my screen! All my friends would always comment "how are you able to look at your screen because its so dark!", and I'd show them and they'd be amazed. Sensitivity was never an issue, and the protector was very smooth, not like the other cheap brands you see on eBay and Amazon.
Def well worth it, I'm just waiting for them to release it too. I actually emailed them today asking when they'll be available for purchase. Hopefully soon. Will keep ya updated.
why diminish the screen quality with this. im sure 99.9% of the populating wouldn't give a crap what you are doing on your phone. lol..

Something Smells Fishy

Does this seem like a simple mistake from when my phone was produced from the factory in China or Korea, where ever our phones where made. Or does it sound like an employee from T Mobile did, for whatever reason.
So I purchased my Note 2 from T Mobile last Friday. While loving the phone for the first couple days. I finnaly pulled my S pen out for the second or third time. And ever since I put it back inin, I noticed a simple tap on the back of phone. The S pen would just fall out. One time it even went in sideways, so turned 90 degrees then it should be. And had a tough time getting out.
When getting the box ready to exchange for new at T mobile. I looked at the s pen on the box, then looked at mine. And its not even the same S pen. I'm guessing the one I had was from the Note 1.
I just found this really odd. And there's no way mine got swapped with one from note 1, cause I don't even no anyone who owns the first note. Actually I've never even seen one. And no one I no has the note 2 either. And I haven't had anyway touch or hold my phone. Especially with all these posts of everyone cracking there screen lol.
So I don't no what to think about this. Just think its really weired. Has this happen to anyone else?

The Note 1's S-pen is round. Unlike the N2's pen which has a 'flat' side to it.
Pics would help a lot here OP. Because right now you sound like a crazy person. Just take a pic of the pen. Upload to imgur or upload it on here.
This post title is what's fishy, misleading, and a hoax. Because I "no" you didn't wait days to treat your pen. Some post are so counter productive and add nothing to the forums.

Actually I did wait days before using the s pen. I didn't buy the note for that. I bought it for the multi screen. Which is why I rooted day 1 and after playing with all the settings I got to the s pen last.
The only reason I new it was the wrong s pen. Is because the logo was on the side but on the box its not.
I already exchanged for a new one. But my new s pen can only be inserted one way. The other one could twist around while 3/4 in

I have no idea whether or not Samsung makes two different models of the s-pen. It seems unlikely that they would, given that the phone has only been out since the last of September/first of October. The only logical reason that I can think of for them to redesign something that they'd already gone to market with would be if there were something functionally wrong with the original device. Nowhere online do I see any indication that they've made such a change. I got my GN2 on October 29th, which would be several weeks before your stated purchase date (according to your initial post, you purchased yours on "last Friday" and that post is dated November 30, so that would put your purchase date on November 23), and my pen design matches those in all of the ads and all of the photos I've been able to locate online (for a few examples, look here). However, with that said, I suppose that it is possible that Samsung has redesigned the s-pen and is now including a different pen with their phones.
As an aside, you might want to begin proofreading your posts for spelling, punctuation, and grammatical errors before posting. Well written messages lend credence to your posts, whereas poorly written messages can call the veracity of your message into question.
Good luck with your new GN2 and s-pen. It's a great device and I'm enjoying mine more and more as time goes by and as I learn more about it. As a matter of fact, I ran across an article this morning that taught me even more about this great phone. It's a couple of months old, but there is still meat there for the taking. Here's the link if you're interested: 50 Samsung Galaxy Note 2 Tips and Tricks
Doubt they changed it. Got a replacement one yesterday and it had the same s pen.

I never said they came out with a new s pen for note II. I just posted when I bought my note II, it came with the first notes s pen. Anyways I exchanged it awhile ago. All is fine now. My s pen fits perfectly in now. And for sure is not the same s pen then I had before.
But thanks for the link will check it out now

[POLL] does our Nexus really have a defective display? TRY THIS WALLPAPER and VOTE!

hi all.
i think my display is defective. i've read many thread about it but i haven't found anyone describing the same exact issue, very noticeable horizontal lines.
however, since i've also read that someone who sent the phone to samsung, received it back with another defective screen, i'm asking your help.
is this problem, exactly this one, so widespread and i have to live with it or i'm just one of the few and, since it's still under warranty, i should send it to samsung immediatly!? :fingers-crossed:
there are 2 attachments, the wallpaper i ask you to try (it is more noticeable with red, but it appears with most solid colors) and a photo showing how mine looks like, screenshots don't reveal it.
do you see the same effect?
this is not a rom issue, i've experienced it with all the roms i've tryed.
thanks a lot for your help!
Go for it, but that's if Samsung actually won't charge you for it, I feel like they'd claim you damaged it, being the assholes they are, and then charge like $200, in which case you may want to either get a new phone or buy another GalNex from eBay.
Good luck, warranty claim sucks lol

we all know, nexuses are development phones but we deserve a decent display at least...
Esteway, exactly the same issue? is it getting worse since you bought the phone?
thanks

will do. i have the best buy protection plan on mine so i know i will get a new phone. my problem is if they will give me a 32gb version or if they will screw me for the 16gb ive seen on the verizon site. but ill let u know
some one more please, just to have a significative sample!
no lines on mine
OMG!! Its a defect?? I thought this is how gnex is....
But anyway I don't have warranty...:sly:
I'll spend rest of my life thinking its a unique nexus style

Actually this is Samsung screen. I used to have it on my Galaxy S and when screen broke and I got new screen, it was the same like this.Galaxy S3 of my dad has it. my Gnex has it. But not that much. But the lines should be vertical. Your screen is probably messed up because even that is normal, you really have to focus to see this with naked eye. Those lines also appear rarely.
Wow, mine is perfect. I'm awesome (jk)
I could barely see any lines but I do have the horizontal lines. Mine are most noticeable on white backgrounds and stuff, mostly the browser. It bugs me but it doesn't, it's not too bad and it goes away completely with more brightness and gets worse when the screen is really dim.
thank you guys for having shared your experiences... thanks a lot!
let's see if we can increase our significative sample...
nope, mine is flat, no lines

S6 Edge Plus Cracked By Itself!?

So I got my brand new Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus from T-Mobile about 2 and a half days ago now. On the beginning of the second day I woke up to notice (With the phone sitting on my nightstand charging like any other phone I've had) that the phone was very very hot to the touch. Upon further inspection after I unplugged it I noticed (To my horror! 0.0) There is now a giant running crack along the left side of the phone. Being in a case from day 1 and NEVER being dropped, this is most definitely NOT accidental damage by any means. (At least in my opinion ). Since the incident I've contacted Samsung and they've provided me with a shipping label to have them take a look at the device. Was really hoping for this to be my best phone yet (Since the Note 4 ). Let's all hope Samsung pulls through and helps me out in this situation! I'll post pictures below and keep you guys updated on what's happening as far as the phone goes! :highfive:

UPDATE!!!: THEY FIXED IT, LOL I UPDATED THE FRONT THREAD TO SAVE YOU FROM SCROLLING
Hmmmm.....this is OP first ever post
It is certainly possible that the battery swelled like the nexus 6 batteries did. The pressure could have cracked the glass but it is likely that samsung would deny that claim. I would document everything and even charge it up again and record the temperature of the phone when it's over heating. Try to remember we all had one post once. I discovered XDA when I was having problems with my LG thrill.

Thanks for the advice I charged it up for a second time and the phone didn't hear up as much. I'll keep you updated (I'm sending it in on Tuesday and living with it until then

More often than not, these first time posters will start a thread like this spreading FUD and drop out leaving everyone in a panic. Somehow those threads become a warzone. ? I'm not saying that is the case here though.
(Not the case here + Update on Phone)
(Whoever just said that this was to cause hype, it's not. It actually legit happened here).
UPDATE
I'm so pissed right now. Samsung called me back and gave me the runaround that this was accidental damage! :crying: . They've really pissed me off. This was not accidental damage and now they want to send it back to me. Going to try to contact their repair center on Monday and appeal this case but other than that I need other options!
If anyone else has any ideas on what to do please let me know!

Yeah, this one reason of self-destructing curved glasses keeps me away too.
Samsung is being inundated with complains from customers of their Edge self-destructing.
I just hate it. HATE IT!
Help

Good Idea But I feel like I don't have enough followers etc. So if I give you my twitter please "retweet it" Lmao, Matt_My3rs.
It'll be an $175 deductible for T-Mobile insurance.
Will try!
