Agreed. Not very happy with this at all. Locking us out of our own devices that most of us paid FULL PRICE FOR!!!
Yeah me too... This sucks... I'm seriously thinking about selling mine and buying a international model. Does anyone know which model works good on At&t?
I bought 2 note 3's and and 1 gear. Dropped about a G and I can't use my device the way I would like? Not a happy customer at this point.

I went to an AT&T store a few days ago to get a secure element for free (SIM) and received a text survey the next day. I gave the employee a 10 but said I wouldnt recommend at&t to a friend, and everything else I gave low low reviews. They called me several hours later and I let them know why... I am sure it doesnt mean much... but at least they know I think they suck!
The people on the phone tried to help... but didn't really know how to go about getting someone to talk to me about bootloaders... they even recommended me checking out XDA to unlock it... LOL awesome.
I told them that I am perfectly fine with voiding my warranty... so can I please get this flashed to an international version... no idea how to answer something like that... oh well...

Don't see why you would think it was necessary to open a thread to say the obvious. If you don't want at&t sell it. Buy an international. C-ya bye

Yeah right. I'm sure this thread will be locked. I knew what I was getting when I bought it. I really didn't care as long as I could root.
If flashing and ROMing is that important, get a different phone. The T-Mobile version of the Note 3 is unlocked and will work on AT&T. I prefer AT&T because I get 4G/LTE where I live and in the building where I work.
Very happy with my Note 3 rooted and using Xposed, Wanam, etc. No need for a custom ROM. At least for me anyways.
AT&T has analytics on social media and Web information they collect on what is being said about them. Most large companies do and thought this might get some attention.

Hey there,
I just thought I would share this with you people. I work for a carrier (don't even bother asking which one ) and we received our test unit today!!! It's the grey version and it looks totally awesome. The screen real-estate is just outta this world. I put it side to side with my S3 and looking at them, I became a bit pissed at my purchase as when the Note 2 was announced, I had thought that we would never carry it (ok, I've already said enough)!
I'm sorry I can' really say much but I had it in my hands for about 5 mins...! It was a 16gb model. I witnessed popup s note, popup browser (NICE), the new menu when you pull the pen out...oh yeah and this thing is FAST!
I have no idea about the release date (they wouldn't tell us), although I find it a bit strange that we are receiving a unit so soon. I've read on several sites that it would be next November...!

You must be in the united states, you said several sites said November ( that's US release month) and you said you didn't expect it so soon ( Europe is expecting it starting this Friday, going on next week).

I didn't actually have enough time with it (5mins) to notice any potential bugs (and mind you, we only received the phone today). I can ask my colleague who's in charge of the device though to see if he notices anything odd.

Now that the phone has been out for a weekend by AT&T, is there any definitive proof that the AT&T one can still unlock the bootloader via HTC dev post 4/19?
Has anyone attempted it? Or are people receiving retail units with the bootloader locked?
Why is it we get the last of all the ports..
I think it's because the devs have the att and Verizon variants atleast we get it they could say f**k us
Sent from my LG-D801 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Realistically, probably because T-Mobile will probably have the smallest buy base. But, in the end it shouldn't be too much of a hindrance given how close the T-Mo variant is to both the AT&T version, and the international version. The roms will come no doubt. Just be patient.

At least your variant is released. Sprint is getting theirs Nov 8th.

Thank god I have Jump.
It's because everyone else is locked in 2 year contracts. It will take time before everyone realizes how much better it is to go with T-Mobile.. I just jumped ship from sprint a month before my contract ends.. SO WORTH IT!
I like how when/if I pay off my phone in 2 years, my bill will actually drop whatever my phone payments were.. With other 2 year contracts, you keep paying the same price even if you don't upgrade your phone.. Ohhh I could go on and rant about the other carriers, but yes more and more hopefully will go to T-Mobile and start making some roms here.
So I tried to save some money by buying a Galaxy Note 8.0 online through Alibaba.com and boy did I screw myself. I should of just bought one here in USA or one from a reputable seller. They said it was original before I bought and of course I trusted them but WOW. It doesn't even have an S-Pen that's how fake this thing is.lol... So after messing with it and started downloading games it's not bad but with no S-Pen I think the Galaxy Tab would of been better geez...lol... What's make this even worse is that I did a factory reset and now my wifi ain't working. So now I'm screwed big time. I'm not much of a cell tech but I sure wish I could at least root it and have a different room so i can be at least a little happy with it. Can anyone help and send me a link where I can start. Any help would be much appreciated. Here's some pictures for those that have one so you can see the difference. You can't really tell but it's a knock off alright. Now I enclosed a picture of the build and it looks like it's rooted so if it is can I just load clockwork and install roms? Thanks again friends.

If you pre-order from Best Buy then it is instant, but through any other carrier/retailer you'll wait like 8 weeks.

6-8 weeks once its confirmed. Who knows how long it will take to confirm. I will assume it is probably 3-4 months to get the check.
Still odd why no specifics if this deal covers full price or not. The wording is vague and that is being kind.
The bb deal says trade in value may vary, so you could just get $10 for that $10 phone.
The Samsungish promotion is fishy.
sent using mobile data only. no broadband in Rural America as was promised by both Presidents Bush & Obama.
I called two local Best Buys and was told you simply get whatever the value of your trade in is. I'm trading in an HTC Evo 4G, I get $22.00 off of a Note4.
EDIT: But buying through Sprint, their website says Samsung will "match" your trade in value up to $200.00.
