Buy developer edition from Samsung.com. They have been taking retail versions and reflashing them to developer edition phones, slapping new stickers on the box and mailing them out.

I got mine from Samsung as well few days ago. There is a new label on the box saying SMN910VMKE but I still the original label underneath with SMN910VZKE model on it. There is no "Developer edition" anywhere - not on the box or phone itself.

I'm gonna say the radio/signal is best fix for me, ive had note 2, which was ok for signal, note 3 was complete garbage, and now note 4 seems to be fixed! So far so good. Let's just hope big red don't screw up stuff in about 6months from now when we finally get 5.0

I'm sorry, I can't help you with your stock issue. But I would like to comment on price. Price will change when the phone isn't as desired. To make it more desirable in a few months, they'll drop the price to combat newer, better speced phones.

Is it around £400 or US$645??? That's not bad. In UK it costs around £450-475. In Brazil it was launched today at just under R$ 2k, which corresponds to US$ 1,250. Lucky you guys in India! That's the reason why it's sold out. Nevertheless, it's still bloody expensive everywhere =P
Same situation in hong kong, I had purchase galaxy S II on last week, but they said the galaxy S II is out of stock in hong kong now, maybe need waiting 2~3 weeks

Hello Dude..there is no question of better screen etc...both are same super amoled plus screen..in the 1st batch it was a spelling mistake..and there are some screen issues in the 1st lot products..bt in the 2nd lot they have rectified it & probably other probs also rectified..i asked u as wanted to know whether 2nd batch came into market or not...there is nothing called "AMOLDED"
@OP you can always give online stores a try. S2 is available at Infibeam, univercell and BigBazaar with a number of payment options.

Note 2 different sizes for US carriers?

Has anybody seen this:
http://www.gforgames.com/gadgets/sa...date-verizon-att-t-mobile-preparations-25687/
However, the videos that show the "hands on" for the att model: http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/04/samsung-galaxy-note-ii-for-atandt-hands-on-an-s-pen-phablet-with/
AND the T-Mobile model: http://www.engadget.com/photos/samsung-galaxy-note-ii-for-t-mobile-hands-on/#5351016
dont seem to reflect a serious 'frame' change, IMO.
Anybody out there with more insight on this?
TIA
I hope it's not true.
they are ALL identical in size. no changes physically. so no need to worry about anything.

Go google the press releases. Sprint had one with associated press shots, Samsung said so at IFA (IIRC), T-Mobile has the Galaxy Note II on their website (just released last night, no pricing or availability) and AT&T had a conference a week ago where their Note II was handled.

[Q] Verizon Note 3 Bootloader Unlock....

I used to have Sprint and I should have stayed because even though development was slow for that particular phone at least there was development. How are we doing with unlocking the bootloader for the Note 3 or will we be doomed to ROMS that are stripped down versions of TouchWiz for the rest of our Note 3 lives?
Yes
I'm doing just fine without an unlocked bootloader. Would be nice to have it unlocked. There's plenty of development going on. A lot of people who bought a Dev edition note 3 ending up selling it including myself.

WARNING!!! Fake vs Real Note 4

Warning!! I just came across this at work when my co-worker asked me to set up his phone. I realized something was wrong when I saw the screen and size of this note 4. I decided to show it off for those who is considering picking up one from ebay or Craigslist. See the comparison from a real note 4 and see for yourself. There's no real difference w/ the software but the hardware might be a concern since the battery(charger) is not Original it might blow-up or melt. The fake one is really flaky and has weird random vibration and I would not recommend using it at ALL!!
Is the bootloader unlocked? Jk.
They make and sell a replica of the note 4' I've seen s couple of really good knockoffs, but they run like sh.t. Your boy got a fake phone

Update: my friend said the phone got too hot and screen is barely visible.
Thank God I got mine from the Verizon store and not Amazon.
Is this even a problem if you have Verizon? Just pop your Verizon SIM into it and it shouldn't activate.

I was kind of wondering why this was posted in the Verizon thread. From the painted back to the locked boot, it seems pretty easy to tell if a Verizon phone is the real deal. With that said, compared to the TMO phone, buyer beware
I prefer the color of the fake's one

New Edge Screen update

Has anyone here received the new Edge Screen update for our phones? This new update lets us change the edge light color and pattern that most of us have been waiting for. I saw an article over at Phonearena that said you can just go into the Galaxy Apps store and update the app there. I have checked my own personal phone as well as 4 others and none seem to have this update.
Anyone here know what the deal is?
Thanks.

What carrier are you on? Country? How did you go about doing the update?
I also have it as well XEU UK unlocked
Looks like this
I wonder if the international variants are getting it first. How did you update it exactly?
I updated mine yesterday
There's an apk in the S8+ theme boards with the new update. I installed on my S8. Now I have the new options but not sure if it's working correctly.
