My story is supported by note, s2,s3. So only people with those phones can use it.

Unfortunately a pretty useless app.
I did not see that mentioned in the publicity.

That's always the problem with such proprietary software. If they really want mystory to be used they will have to release it for non Samsung phones too. Without support for other phones it is going to disappear sooner or later. I for example do not know one single person I can send mystory messages. I don't even know why I installed it

Jelly Bean coming to Note 10.1

It looks like we should be getting the JB update sooner rather than later...
theverge.com said:
From http://www.theverge.com/2012/9/24/3381542/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-android-jelly-bean-update-device-list:
In an email from Samsung to The Verge, the company has announced that it's updating its flagship Galaxy S III handset to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, starting today.
...
As well as detailing the update for the Galaxy S III, Samsung also released a full list of devices that will be upgraded to Jelly Bean. The list includes ten phones: the Galaxy S II, Galaxy Note, Galaxy S Advance, Galaxy S II LTE, Galaxy Chat, Galaxy Ace 2, Galaxy Beam, Galaxy Ace Plus, Galaxy Mini 2, and Galaxy S Duos; four tablets: the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0, Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus, Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, Galaxy Note 10.1; and an unknown device, the Galaxy Music (we've reached out to Samsung to confirm the mystery device's identity).

Lol. Yeah if I were Samsung I would roll out my OTA to Poland first as well. No need to take care if the third world countries like THE FRIGGIN USA!
Anyway its looking close.
I'll be happy if the OTA just fixes the palm zoom bug in s notes. Drives me NUTS!
** With JB released I am hoping we will get some more action in non AOSP rom development.
** Anyone who is rooted I suggest you wait to hear from the Devs if the OTA is root safe before flashing it. Give it a few days and Entropy will likely post a root safe version in Development. Many rooted users that flashed the last OTA without it being tidied up a bit ended up losing pen functionality - raises hand in shame

I'd say unroot the device by flashing stock Rom with odin. Gets rid of root, cwm and allows you to get the update. Simple enough.

No the Galaxy Note 10.1 won't be released until Christmas 2012. You must have one of those Chinese knockoffs.

Not quite sure how you pulled that off. I had to use my time machine to go into early 2013 to purchase my Note 10.1, and I was ASSURED that I would be the only owner for quite some time. Typical future salesman lies.

Umm its always better to roll out an update in a smaller market first. If the update is borked, the fewer people it affect the better in my estimation.

Samsung wallet.

Engadget posted an article about this saying it is only available to Korean customers, but it's in the Samsung store to download. I'm not sure if it is the same app since they both look different?

Speaking of Mobeam, isn't the S4 phones supposed to have a mobeam app? I haven't seen one. Do you know anything about it?
**EDIT**
Ok, I snooped around a bit and I found out that Mobeam is actually hardware integrated into the S4. I have not tried this yet but I read that if you input *#0*# into the dial pad it open up a diagnostic. You can then select barcode emulator and see it work. I also read that apps taking advantage of Mobeam will start to be released at the end of the month. Samsung wallet will also include the Mobeam technology, but isn't widely available yet. I would put up a link to the info but it is on another board and I don't want to violate the SPAM policies.

Is mobeam technology available on handsets today?
Almost! On March 14, 2013, Samsung Mobile announced that the Samsung Galaxy S4 smartphone will be embedded with mobeam’s patented technology. The mobile device is expected to hit shelves sometime in April.
Edit: a user on androidcentral forums emailed mobeam and was written back that the app should be launching at the end of this month.
something tells me they're behind schedule. lol

It works but everything is in dollars and all the coupons are Us based. So I guess they are making apps on a country by country basis since the Korean one looks different as well.

Oh OK understood. Yea, both wallet apps look different.

Re Share again please... on others server...

How do you get Samsung Wallet to transmit the Mobeam?
If I run the barcode emulator from *#0*# it scans fine, but that barcode is fixed to 1234567890128 (EAN13).
The only thing Samsung Wallet is doing, is turning the screen brightness up 100% so image barcode scanners can scan the barcode.
My laser scanner doesn't see anything from the Samsung Wallet that cmjkxa posted.
Also everytime I open the app, Wallet says there is an update. Is it possible someone can post a newer apk?

I've bought a Galaxy S4 GT-i9500 to this eBay's user: re-styled
As GPU-Z shows it doesn't meet Galaxy S4 specs in several things. Please confirm that is a fraud.

I though the same. Paypal dispute on the way.

I think it's horrible that people that rip people off like that.
For us tech minded people it's easy, we know something isn't right and we query it and check hardware etc
But there's many people that would even notice, it looks like an S4, you can download Candy Crush and browse FB so no worries.
For example if my mother bought an S4 and got a chinese clone she would have no idea. 80% of people they rip off probably have no idea. So having to refund the odd few here or there is no big deal.

I respond to myself: it's the HCD Galaxy S4 Legend

Anyone get the 4.4 OTA update yet?

It was suppose to roll out today and should be done by the next "10 days"

I thought sprint was first in line? I understand Samsung has already sent out the Ota to the carriers, but I think the carriers have to "rebloat" kit Kat as well..... I did hear that the update will start going out today also but I think sprints first in line.

I am very certain according to news reports on tech sites and the topics started here last week that Sprint's rolled out last week. As far as I have read Samsung announced a few days ago the roll out would start soon, but no specific dates given for carriers. ATT is still Feb/March which we are coming the end of February so it could very well be soon.

Still no update on a S4 AT&T

Double check by connecting to kies. Some updates will get pushed through our phones and others are going to be valuable through kies I believe.

That is pretty much true. Samsung devices running Android 4.4.2 don't allow third-party apps to write to the external SD card. Apps can read but can't write.
This is explained more here.
