This may have been asked before so my apologies if it has. I just don't have the time right now to search.

Can the site notes I saved on my S4T be transferred to my Note 4? I don't see a way to do it, unless I'm missing something. I want to reset it and give it to my wife to replace her regular S4 and that's the only thing holding me back from doing it yet. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Best Buy gave me the msl code for my phone. It was on a printout they gave me. I haven't gone into my engineering screen yet on this phone but I don't think you need it.

Looks like B25 to me. You would need to check the engineering screen to be sure though.

Interesting what am i doing wrong? I have scpro.

Post a screen shot so we can see what you're looking at.

So does signal check not show the band on this device?

Mine shows B25 and B26 just fine. B41 will show more reliably after the next update.

I'm getting significantly better battery life vs my S4T. Signal seems about the same, which is a good thing. This may be the first phone that I'm not going to need a second battery.

Anyone in the Shentel area know if they will be rolling out Band 41? Hopefully in the York/Harrisburg area they do.

There's a premier sponsor thread to discuss B26 and B41 in the Shentel market.

Needless to say, the note is a very popular phone. The girl who processed my order this morning at Best Buy said they did not get any extra stock in for any provider, which is rare. They won't be selling any in store, except to fulfill preorders, until further notice.

I will say, this is a really nice phone. I'm really glad I bought it, especially with using the preorder deal. Even though I had to leave town this weekend which puts me roaming on 1x US Cellular, it still is running smooth, albeit a little slow.

Anyone in the York area having issues when trying to place a call with full service, and it never rings but the other party says it rings and they pick up and hear nothing? Happened to me a few times. Iphone 6.

Happened to me yesterday in Shenandoah Co, VA. By the end of the day everything was working normal. My guess is they were just updating something.

What did Best Buy end up charging for the phone $720 or $799?

I bought it on contract so I'm not sure.

I had no issues what so ever at Best Buy. However there will be many people pissed. They didn't let the Verizon people know in advance that it was postponed by Verizon... And apparently if you didn't do the pre order early they didn't all come in yet. Another guy with Sprint was told the next shipment is Tuesday! I also totally agree this thing is a beast!!!

 

Good Luck to all the others.

The new phone had to be activated before the trade in could be done. It all worked out in the end.

At Best Buy now. They are having a difficult time with the $200 gift card, saying it has to be an active phone. The manager is trying to figure it out. I pointed out their website doesn't mention that even in the fine print.

I was planning on going case free this time and getting good the spigen glas.tr.

I also ordered the glass.tr. That's supposed to be here tomorrow. The case hasn't shipped yet but I'm hoping it gets here by Friday.

I already ordered a spigen slim armor case. I love their cases.

You traded it in and they accepted it?

You don't trade the old phone until you pick up the note 4.

So T Mobile has started shipping the Note 4 pre order sales... Even upgraded shipping and delivery is Monday for a lot of people. What are the chances Best Buy sends out notification early for pick up?

It would be nice but I'm not holding my breath for it. I'm headed out of town Friday afternoon so getting it a day or 2 early would be nice for me.

Sprint is faster than my home ISP. Fastest speed I can get through Shentel dsl (only wired ISP in my area) is 10 down / 1 up.

Not sure where else to put this so I'll put it here. Has anyone else noticed how similar the spark logo is to the Walmart logo? I never noticed it until I recently installed the Walmart app on my phone.

I called. I was told to wait until the phone arrives, and then call for the $50 credit to my account. The sales rep told me she made a specific note in my account to give the refund. 

I'm hoping Best Buy matches Sprint's price by release day. If not, I'll try to get them to price match, which they should do, as long as Sprint's in-store price is $300. 

Scuba,

From what I read, Sprint just extended device upgrades from 20 months to 24 months for anyone who upgrades ON or AFTER September 12, 2014. See the link below. This brings Sprint in line with AT&T and Verizon who changed their upgrade cycles to 24 months last year. I highly doubt Sprint would ever change that back to 20 months in the future.

Interesting, Galaxy...was your purchase for a NEW line of service or were upgrading

an existing phone on your Sprint account? Starting to look like this $200

promotion (hosted by Sprint & Sammy) is for NEW lines of service; it does not

appear that I can get the promotion with a phone already under a 2 yr contract..

thoughts on this? Really , in the end, what I would like to do is replace my

Kyocera Vibe (which is under a two yr contract) with a brand new Note for

$99...right now the evidence I've gathered suggests that I cannot do this; I COULD

get a NEW note for $99 if I wanted to add yet another contract & line of service

but then I'm paying an extra monthly bill..Have I got this right?

 

Looks like the whole idea is to entice new folks NOT to buy the iPhone 6!!!!

This promotion is mainly for upgrades. Not sure where you saw otherwise.

I pre-ordered last week. I paid $50 and they gave me a $50 gift card. I was told to bring the $50 gift card back with me on release day when I pick it up. That $50 will be applied to the cost. I was also told to bring in my old smart phone and would get $200 credit applied to the cost. I'm keeping my old phone so I picked up a Casio G'z One Commando 4G for super cheap to satisfy the promotion. Since Sprint just lowered the cost to $300 on contract, I should only have to pay $50 plus tax on release day because of already having the $50 gift card.

My understanding is this promotion can only be applied to the cost of the phone if you are getting it on contract or buying it full price. If you are getting it through Easy Pay (or whatever Sprint calls it) you can't use any Best Buy gift cards toward the cost of the phone.  

I got the same msg through sprint zone too so I guess their usage server is offline right now.
