It seems negri is still the only way to buy a white i9020A. Why doesn't google just offcially announce it and sell it on best buy for a regular price, if this product is already out of the factory?
It's probably going to come out along with the AT&T one, yes I know the Canadian Nexus S works with AT&T but I am talking about a retail product.

Does anyone have any ideal of when the 32gb or 64gb version of S4 will go on sell? Anyone who works for At&t know if either will be available to purchase in the at&t store? Seen something that Radio Shack will have the 32gb version for Sale on the 27 April 2013. 16gb is not enough onboard memory for me.
I read today at android central that a Samsung rep said within the next week or two for the 32GB but I don't know how accurate that is, I also don't see a 64GB coming at all to the US.

I have the Nexus 4 16gb. Not enough memory for me. 32 would be comfortable.:good:
For those who can live with 9.8GB of space, I applaud them. I simply can't and won't. Just annoys me to have to wait, weeks, months, who knows when for the 32GB. I hear Saturday, I hear next week or two to pre-order, I hear May or June. Not sure what to believe.

I agree I have like 8 games installed and it seems like I have over 5gb installed. That doesn't include Bards Tale, Real Racing 2,Asphalt, Dead trigger and others. I would love 32gb.

Rumor from Google I/O coming in May is a revamped Nexus 4 with 32GB and LTE. May hold out for that. Now if a 32gb or G4gb Galaxy S4 come out before then, I might make that move. :highfive:
While a Nexus 4 w/ 32GB and LTE would be nice the lack of microSD doesn't make it any better for me at least.
More info on the larger memory models at http://blog.clove.co.uk/2013/04/28/...er-accessible-internal-storage/#comment-47651 and http://www.gottabemobile.com/2013/04/25/samsung-galaxy-s4-32gb-64gb-mia/ and http://www.knowyourmobile.com/samsu...msung-galaxy-s4-wheres-32gb-and-64gb-versions
I would really like to buy an S4 but not in a basic 16Gb form. I want at least 32Gb or preferably 64Gb. With Apps2SD not functional on the newer versions of Android and the internal memory being much faster than an external microSD card the larger memory versions are a must for power users. Maybe I will have to give up on Samsung and go for a 64Gb HTC One which does not have a removable battery or card slot but looks a worthy alternative to an S4 with only the basic memory.

rumors abound on when we will see it, some say the 30th, some say May or June, some say never. If ATT didn't even mention it in the fine print we would just assume no.
Bottom line is if they don't then I have to rethink my whole phone strategy. Perhaps Samsung will offer up a 32GB developer edition soon.
Just get an international version. I scored one for $699
I am giving it some time before I get an unlocked international version. I am optimistic that coming soon is May or June at the latest.

Did u get the 32gb version international and from where? i am also patiently waiting for the 32gb version in india. Dont want to make the same mistake of getting the 16 gb again like i did with the s3. Its just no enough space. One of my friends went to the samsung store to ask they say that the 32gb version will not come to india but i have a feeling they are just saying that to sell the 16gb versions but who knows.

Wow. I've searched high and low for a 32 or 64Gb version. Which size did you get and where was it from bacause there are loads of us who would like to know where to get the larger memory versions.
Why is this so difficult? Many people, like myself, were looking to finally switch from iPhone to the S4. But I won't live with 9Gb available. I just won't. They had a huge opportunity with this launch, and they have completely squandered it.
I did see 1 international (South Korean) version for sale on eBay, however apparently LTE doesn't work on that model in the US. I have seen several listings touting 32GB, but then the details pages reveal that they are all 16+16. Today thee were two new listings for 32GB that don't say 16+16, but I have emailed the sellers for clarification since I find it hard to believe that random people would get them first.
Its a myth .. i have being waiting for samsung to release anything greater then 16gb since s2 times..
S2 -> Tab 7.7 -> S3 all annouced 32 or 64.. but none reach my country.
So do not keep your hopes up for 64gb.. 32gb maybe..

i actually expected the same situation which i why i went ahead and bought the s3 16gb only to find them release the 32gb a month or so later so now im not sure what they plan to do and i just hope they release it soon cause i really want to buy the phone and dont want to get stuck with 16gb again.

32 GB at AT&T.
Hey everyone !
Just made a petition to make Samsung release the 32gb and the 64gb. I know that on AT&T the 32gb has been released, but not everywhere and the 64GB is still missing. Please sign (at least for helping others) and share the petition link: http://www.change.org/petitions/release-the-samsung-galaxy-s4-with-32-and-64-gb-internal-memory
Best regards.
Hey guys, thinking about signing up for a new family plan and getting either a Nexus 4 or the Samsung Galaxy S4. From my understanding, no one has ported ASOP onto the T-Mobile version yet (SGH-M919). I absolutely HATE touchwiz, I'd want to put Jellybean 4.2.2 on from day one. If this isn't possible, I'll settle for the Nexus 4.
I'm really digging the hardware specs on the S4, and the memory expansion slot/larger battery is really catching my attention.
What do you guys think?
EDIT : got the HTC One!
All,
Last year samsung released their developer VZW N2 in 6-8 weeks.
Any info on the N3 dev edition ( 16 or 32 GB - I assume it will be black) ?
Any possible issues with availability of the device ( the S4 was out of stock for "months").
I see that there is not much hope that devs can crack this device after release -last year N2 was jailbroken in less than 14 days after release
Update:
Black ,32GB ,storage, 3200mah
Reps are saying first part of nov.
Lets see which developers will support this device
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SM-N900VMKEVZW-specs
VZW is only offering the 32 GB version, I really argued with them about it and got transferred to their marketing department that makes such decisions, had to leave a message and nobody called me back of course. I would assume a Dev version would be 32 or 64 but there's no way you'd see a 16GB version. Maybe the 64gb version is not available because (I read this somewhere on XDA) only the 32gb version supports LTE. The non - LTE chip requires more memory to give the same performance as the 32gb LTE version.

Aha,
thanks.
We will call u back.sure.
I am assuming that that dev edition will be avail soon - a couple of weeks after the mainstream edition. 64 would be nice, but oh well..
If dev cannot crack this open I will have to wait for the dev edition. Safe strap works on S4 but if prefer the real unlock.
N2 was (is a beast) as far as development goes.
any heads up for the timeframe of release?
thanks

Verizon's GN2 Developer Edition went up mid December last year so who knows it could come sooner. But don't expect a 64GB version we won't get it.

So a couple of weeks of extra wait. I want to wait to see if the reg edition gets jbed then get it if not get a dev ed.
Still hugging that unlimited. For now.
Thanks
If you buy a Verizon Developer Edition through Samsung, can you still get the Asurion insurance through Verizon?
In the past when I changed phones on my account I simply updated the info with Verizon so they could or should know what I was covering/insuring with them. So long as the phone is functioning at the time you add it you "should" not have any issues.
Do we know for sure vz will be getting a developer edition? I haven't heard a thing about it.
Ive read rumors on interwebs saying both will and wont get dev edition. I withdrew my preorder to wait and see if we can get it unlocked. I have faith in adam outler. He seems good at sticking it to verizon. If dev edition comes out first I'll go that way. I've experienced safe strap and theres nice features and drawbacks to it. Unlocked is definitely worth the wait

He is amazing...BUT...he hasn't unlocked the s4. I don't think we will see an unlock anytime soon. I would be satisfied with safestrap...but I'm not sure it could be done with Knox.

Adam stated in a post recently that he is done with Samsung products and is advising everyone to go with a different brand phone.
I was all set to pre-order an N3 and sell my mint N2, but after realizing all the downsides of a phone locked up that tight I decided to stick with the N2 for now.

Hi John,
did Adam mentioned why not get Samsung? N3 has the best oled screen on the market. Any other phablet with "better" custom rom support?
Thanks

I don't think there will be a Dev edition. Unfortunate.... I think I'm gonna give the g2 a try..a Lil smaller than I want....but its not locked down.
My plan is to buy the retail version then sell it if the Dev drops or return it if there is an announcement within two weeks.
For those with more Patience it might just be worth the wait!

I'm with ya on that I'm just gonna buy the Note 3 and let the devs work their magic. I'm sure they'll be able unlock it or at least have a work around like kexec. But if all fails I'll just sell mine to a stock user and go for the developer edition.

Adam is done with samsung devices...especially since they went back to qualcom processors. If the N3 had a Exynos processor Relekdev might have a chance. However Qualcom processors utilize qfuses, which once blown, make unlocking a encrypted bootloader about 99% impossible.

Same here...the N2 is still holding its own very well. I am going to hold off and see if a dev edition shows up.

yes it is. the difference is that it has access (currently) to loki, a tool that will allow a development community to grow, however it can and will be patched.
Hi everyone,
I've owned a Samsung S4 (AT&T branded), a Nexus 5 (GPe), and currently own an LG G2 (AT&T branded) and Moto G (GPe). Admittedly, while the Moto G is an awesome device to test apps and develops them on, I'm looking to gift it to a family member and purchase the best unlocked BOOTLOADER smartphone out there. If the S5 were in the play store, I'd get it right away, but right now I haven't even seen a 32GB version that will run all AT&T LTE bands.
So, here are my options: S5 (T-Mobile off-contract), M8 (Google Play Edition), or M8 (HTC Dev Edition). An unlocked bootloader is absolutely necessary if I'm going to shell out that much money. Also, up for consideration instead of getting any of these phones is a Samsung S4 (Google Play Edition). The only reason I'm looking into the S4 is because I have so many accessories for it, it would be a shame to let them go to waste, especially if it means buying a much cheaper and still powerful phone without having to buy new accessories for the device (case and whatnot). I've heard the S5 is only marginally better than the S4 and in some reviews, aside from the camera quality, the M8 is said to be better. I favor all 3 of these devices because they allow the use of an external SD-card. Ideally, the S5 would be 32GB available in the Play Store, but that apparently isn't going to happen anytime soon and Samsung only has a CDMA (Verizon) developer edition of the S5 available.
So, what does everyone vote on? I'll create a poll, but any reasons you can provide will be much appreciated since I'll hopefully learn more about each device.
Thanks everyone! Looking forward to your replies.
