Woo hoo!!! I am happy to report 4G in my house right now. I already had it at work and this is now just awesome. I am in the Lower Roswell/Johnson Ferry area of East Snob. I am getting about 9-12mps consistently.

One other question...I swear I was able to go in and set times that my notifications (text, email, etc.) would not audibly notify. I have been digging around on the phone and on Google and just can't find it. Am I just crazy?!

And yes, I meant to say I "AM NOT" crazy about the earbuds!

Don't get me wrong, the headphones will work out of the jack...you just won't have any functions of the in-line buttons....

 

I have to ask though...whats wrong with the buds that come with the phone. I still use the ones from my OG EPIC 4G, they're not bad quality at all....

I'm just a fan of the earbuds...I prefer the old skool headphones.

I've had problems with non-Samsung parts. I even had to replace my universal car charger that wasn't Samsung.

 

I have also noticed that after I unplug headphones, I have to pull down the top menu, and cycle through the sound settings to get all my ambient sounds to come back and work. Lock and unlock sounds, and selection sounds....etc.

Well, that's a bummer. I have read some other forums that mention that the connection point for the headphones may be different than most other phone. Whereas my headset would be left/right/mic, the female point would be set up as mic/left/right or something along those lines. Very annoying. I absolutely love the headphones that I have and really don't want to have to drop more $$$ just for a compatible set.

So this is a little bit off topic, but I have a SG3 that is replacing my OG Evo. I have headphones (Klipsch Reference One) that has controls/microphone with it. On my EVO, it worked great taking and placing calls. With the SG3, if the headphones are connected and place/receive a call it will not go through the headset. If during the call I disconnect/reconnect the headset, I can then hear the call but the microphone is still inoperative. So...any of you tech heads have any suggestions? I tried Headset Droid to no avail.

I am pretty pumped. I am currently in California on business and went in and bought a nice, shiny new SG3 today. It was a little sad to trade in my EVO 'OG' that I bought on Jun 10th, 2010 (I was #3 in line @ the time), but it was at the point that either I got a new phone or I was going to throw it out the window. Anyway, I am hopeful that when I get back to Atlanta next week some of the glitches will be dealt with. I saw that the tower near my place of employment was scheduled for update last month, so I am very excited. It's about 3,000 feet away from my office, so I have high hopes!

Anyone getting LTE signals around the west side of Lockheed? (Pat Mell and Dixie Ave area) and/or around Lower Roswell and Johnson Ferry?
