North American SGSII owners

Thought there should be a thread for all the info we can share with each for all of us who have bought a SGSII from abroad, and are using it here in the US.
Any information regarding software upgrades for such located devices etc. and anything else.

Got mine on the 5th, so far no problems with AT&T. Yesterday I switched to the $10 unlimited data plan.

Just so everything clear, I'm pretty sure its only $10 if you have unlimited.messaging. att will switch to $15 nonsmartphone after awhile.

Same here (got it on the same day as well)! But I have the $30 unlimited smartphone plan from my old iPhone. Now the cost actually seems worth it since I am getting pretty decent H+ speeds.
I just hope Samsung keeps the updates coming for this phone. There seems to be a lot of interest since they got over 3 million preorders (http://www.electronista.com/articles/11/05/08/samsung.galaxy.s.ii.at.3m.pre.orders.by.may). I showed a few of my friends and they are going to get it when it comes out here in the US.

I'm still pulling the same H+ speeds I was getting on my 2GB smartphone plan. All the AT&T guys were like little kids looking at the phone. Had 6 employees gathered around.

Using it on Att still using my unlimited data for $15. Loving the phone so far, excellent speed data and phone performance.

Still paying $10 for 1000 messages and $25 for 2GB data fro HSPA & 4G with a $10 extra charge when i exceed 2GB. I seem to do that every month. Is there a way to lower my cost?
Purchased for $756 from Clove UK.

Yip, getting H+ and loving it! Though in northern California (Bayarea), its a bit spotty, but loving it nonetheless. More so loving the non AT&T tainted or touched device. No issues so far, I wonder how the international updates are going to affect us.

You lucky SOBs. Still wondering if I should hold out for Samsung tab. So tempting.

I purchased though Handtec May 2nd via Google Checkout payment for $748 I believe. Had clearance/FCC paper that needed to be filled out with FeDex, but still received the device on the 5th of May. Happy with both Handtec (first time ordering with them), and FeDex considering the logistics involved.
I usually order my devices from negrielectronics.com, who have great service as well. No issues getting my Nexus S with NAM 3G band from them. Fast, and on time as well, Handtec just had the SGSII a week early.

Just order from handtec for the same cost with paypal. Awaiting for their shipping notice now.
@buddylee, I remember you when I purchase my X1, you always get the new phone so quickly.

I should be getting mine tomorrow, a day late, because they didn't have the FCC forms for customs clearance. I had to call FedEx like 5 times in order to get the form through haha. Ended up faxing it to someone, they called an hour or two later and said I would get it tomorrow.
My only concern is: What is the phone has defects? How will I have to do to return it?
Would I have to find an individual living in the UK to exchange it for a new one for me?

I'm coming from T-Mobile and their plague on humanity, the G2X. Truthfully, LG should stick to TVs but that's another story. I ordered my SGS2 from Cleverboxes and it's shipping tomorrow via NCS (whatever that means). My remorse period for the G2X is up on 5/19 so I'm getting an Inspire on 5/15 to establish service for the SGS2 on AT&T. I should be able to make a couple of hundred dollars selling a new Inspire on eBay to help offset some of the cost of the SGS2. The SIM will never have been used so the SGS2's IMEI will be what's registered with AT&T when I activate it (assuming their process is the same as T-Mobile's).
Part of what screwed up the G2X is all the T-Mobile crapware that's installed on what's supposed to be a vanilla Google phone. I'm glad to pay the extra money for an unbranded SGS2 just not to have to deal with carrier software, OS modifications, and dependency on them for updates. I also checked and the Samsung warranty is valid since it's a UK phone purchased in the UK. It can even be serviced in the U.S. under their global warranty program. That's something to consider for those of you buying overseas products and getting invoices from a company here in the U.S.
I can't wait for it to get here and be rid of T-Mobile and to have a high quality phone again. I was thinking of getting a Sensation on T-Mobile when it comes out 6/8 but the whole G2X debacle did me in.

I will never get a device from my carrier even with a discount. I am more happy with my device paying full price and without all the carrier bloatware and/or hardware removal!

This is the blueprint
1. Drop your text plan and switch over to google voice (optional)
2. Call up att and tell them you have a device you want to activate on your account with your sim. They will ask what phone it is, lie and say razr or some **** like that ... they will add it on for you then you will lose your smartphone data.
3. The rep will ask if you wish to optionally add the dataplan for non smartphones, you can add it then for $15 unlimited data.
I burn through about 15gb a month

Hey, is there a direct line for this?
I was literally JUST talking to my wife about this (calling and asking for an early upgrade) because my Galaxy Nexus was stolen last Thursday. My upgrade is due August ~13, so its only a little over a month early.
PM me if you could please

What would the phone cost you if took the promotion, canceled after a month and paid the early termination fee?

Unfortunately not since it is still a week away from being released. You might have to wait until Thanksgiving/Valentine's Day for the SGS3 to be free since they usually offer these specials around holidays.
I went into a Tmobile store for a new sim card and while I was there inquired about the terms. If I were eligible, I would have to change my plan and my per month cost would end up being much higher than it is now. So if you take them up on this, make sure you understand the terms and conditions as it is not as easy as walking in and getting a new phone for free. You have to pay the 300 (for the OneS) plus taxes and upgrade fees, keep the line open until you get your rebate back, and change your plan to one that may not be better for you.
If I had an upgrade available, I would buy it from Bestbuy as it is only 100 and you dont have to change your plan, just extend it. Plus no waiting for a rebate.

I just left Sprint and came to T-Mobile and got the GS4. Sprint sucks. Spent 6 years dealing with their horrible data speeds on a smartphone. Not anymore! T-Mobile is a big improvement. Not sure if this Jump! program is a good idea for those who buy all the newest phones and then sell them on craigslist towards the new one. Doesn't seem like it saves you very much since you have to turn in the phone you currently have.

Well, if you do the math.....$99 down and $20/mo for 6/mo, and $10/mo for the Jump program, thats $279. $579-279 is $300. Yes, you could get more on craigslist if you wanted, but its better than most of the other trade in programs, and its very convenient. And that extra $10 includes insurance/theft protection.

So right now, I got the S4 in May and of course I have to pay it off. If I enroll in the program I don't have to pay it off anymore or what?

Yes... But I read you have to wait 6 months before the first upgrade. The payoff disappears, trade in your current phone, and buy at new customer price... With the monthly financing of course.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda premium

The question is: when does if start? It officially starts July 14, so does it apply only to new purchases after that? Or will they let you do it retroactive to a certain date. Also you have to have the insurance plan already, which I believe must be put on at the time of purchase of the phone.

I just read on T-Mobile's site: " JUMP must be added within 14 days of qualified device purchase."
Does this mean we are screwed if we got our S4 before July 1st? The program starts on the 14th.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda premium

Sounds like it, but maybe you can call them on the 14th and plead your case.

I watched the full press conference and had some of the same questions you guys do. One of the things they said was that there would be a limited time opportunity for existing customers to sign up, but there were no further details given. So I decided to ask. The first person through customer service chat hadnt even heard of it yet so I asked in the forums. The only answer I got there was someone saying it was for all simple choice customers. But if you go here to the Jump info page toward the bottom of the page it says "Already a T-Mobile customer?" and has a link. When you click that link it takes you to your log on. After logging in it takes you back to that info page with the July 14th date. If it wasnt for existing customers I dont see why that would be on the "Jump" page.
Heres how I think it works as far as existing customers. When it starts on July 14th there will be a limited time window for existing simple choice customers that already have the insurance to be able to change their existing PHP insurance to "Jump". Since I am still within my 14 day period I made sure I added the insurance just to make sure I qualified. We will know soon enough, but my guess is that it will be available to us for a limited time, and only if we already have the standard insurance they offer now.

So if you have insurance like php. Then just add the 10 dollars a month. Or does it replace that and just pay the jump price instead of the insurance cost.

It replaces your existing insurance. So if your paying the 7.99 now its only $2 more to replace it with Jump. This covers basically everything that could break your phone, theft, loss, and adds the ability to upgrade up to twice a year. I just tweeted John Legere the CEO and asked about current customers. Ill update this if he answers.

This is true. But for me I'd rather sell on Craigslist and get a little bit more for it which I can use the difference, after paying off my eip, to put down on a new phone. Plus the $2 a month I'm saving not going with the program and doing the regular $7.99 insurance instead. But that's just me.

She had the manager come over and check and he said the same thing. Oh well good for me I guess...LOL :good:. And I high fived the rep as I left.
Yes I used my 2 year upgrade to get it. Also it was also a business account and it was not charged to the account (I checked)
Oh well just thought I would share....
Oh ya and I had to do some extra work to keep my unlimited data since they try to remove it no matter what now....I had to call 611 and have them reapply during the switch over to the new phone.

Tell you what, buy back your Note 2 and I'll take the free Note 3. You just got a more advanced phone for free and cash for your old one, how can you seriously be complaining? You're probably the only one who has gotten an absolute free N3 and aren't happy. That's like saying..oh no...I won the lottery but now I have to pay taxes on it, darn. -_-

how is that even possible? Did you have to renew your contract? Pay for the discounted price for the phone?

Are you sure it was free? There is a program called next where the sales tax is charged at point of sale and then an installment plan is added for 20 months...
There is also a bug right now at Corp stores where sometimes sales tax is not charged on a transaction...
I'm a great salesman and part of being one is knowing every deal and offer... that's the only way I know where the note would be free.
Don't get me wrong I love the next program but this sounds like possible bait and switch...
If this happened to you, you will notice a 35 dollar increase in you bill and a lack of the standard upgrade fee.
Trust me, I am a retail sales person at a Corp store. It sounds like they signed you up for next which is an installment plan that raises bill. It gives a one year upgrade option but it should only be sold to someone that wants it.

Are you talking about AT&T replacing it or Asurion?

I called AT&T, instead of the insurance company. First time (headphone jack), the rep said it was still under AT&T's warranty. Second time (water damage), the rep said it would be a pain to go through the insurance company & they could replace it , but would have to charge the deductible. I asked could he waive it. He checked with the manager & he ok'd it, even sent the replacement overnight.

That makes more sense. I've never had an issue getting a phone replaced within a year from AT&T, some had physical damage to the housing. Water damage would be pretty iffy, but as long as you have documentation, I don't see how they can charge you. I've never paid for insurance, so I don't have experience with that process.

This thread has run its course. Clerical and pricing errors don't happen every day, congrats OP on a legit free device.

I don't mind free extra data no matter how long it is 1 month , 2 months 1 year

It should be noted that this is only for people with a More Everything Plan.

Added that but most people should know that Verizon does not give deals for legacy plans anymore.

Verizon still has current plans (i.e. non-legacy) that are not More Everything plans.

Yep they do but most likely no deals for those plans.

Also try going to Main Menu like you see in the Screenshot then you will be in my-verizon logged on mobile browser.
Then you should see Connections Offer on the left side, Under HOME section not plan.
If not then it might be because you have loyalty 10GB Plan before they were public to all people this might be why..
you can also try calling customer service they should be able to do add it for you.

Verizon removed offer?
So I just seen this thread today and tried with both stock browser and Chrome via my Note 4 and got this: See attachment.
Apparently Verizon has dropped this already?

Well, recently I had called Verizon CS regarding that other promo stuff listed here about 10gb data = 30 or whatever and also had noted one user actually opted for a $10 discount off their bill in place of (I believe) taking advantage of that offer.
So in the end. At that point in time, I had 3GB data on my plan. Talked to agent and as I mainly use wi-fi both at home and work and barely exceed 1gb average a month (yet it's nice to know I have some extra in case I want to stream pandora, ect... in car), anyhow, I ended up getting my monthly bill discounted (-$10) and an extra GB of data thrown in to equal 4GB at that time.
So in answering your question, I should be at least temporarily now at 5GB I suppose for the next couple months. :victory:

That's not bad.
You can get Loyalty Credit on Contract lines if it has little more then 1 year left on your contract.
Try calling and asking about "Loyalty Credit" not all lines can get it.
If contract has less then 1 YEAR LEFT it would extend contract END date by few months but not the upgrade date.
So you might save even more $$

Thanks for the info. Basically I just have my main line (The recently purchased Note 4) a month after my eligibility date from Sept 19th this year and a stupid Home Connect which I don't even use and it's contract expires this Nov 21st... Long story short, ex girlfriend whom I mistakenly at the time purchased and put a phone under contract had broken up with me so instead of paying the ETF, I went on Ebay at the time, purchased a Verizon Home connect box, and ported the number to it.
Looking forward to saving that extra $20 per month very soon! :laugh:
