New to Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 - Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 General

I'm new to this tablet. Just bought this off of Ebay last week for me and my wife to share. Paid $180+shipping. I paid $6 for shipping USPS parcel select (Pony express shipping speeds) but when I got it 2 days later the nice lady decided to pay the extra and ship it to me Priority Mail ($12) and not even charge me.. And when I was looking at the storage there was a 64 gb card already in there. I think she may have forgotten about it. I seen a bunch of pictures already on there. Over all I have enjoyed this. I haven't really had much time using it but so far so good. I don't plan on rooting this any time soon. Just going to sit back and enjoy my new non rooted tablet.

Thread closed. More a statement than discussion...
I assume you're going to do the decent thing and return the SD card (with the Photos intact) to the rather kind and generous seller...

ATT Pure gone?

Is the ATT Pure gone? I am looking to add a line to my plan, and cannot find them anywhere. ATT has them on the website, but only refurbs and only for new customers (free). Amazon has them online for new accounts and upgrades, but they don't do add a line transactions.
Am I missing something? Is there a replacement for this phone coming out? My wife likes the Tilt 2 that I just got, but thought the physical keyboard was not needed... that led me naturally to the Pure.
im existing and it shows up for me .
I spoke with AT&T this morning. The refurbs are only available to new customers due to limited supply. They also said that I could order it as a new customer and transfer it over to my existing family plan without any problem or cost.
The said that the phone is still listed as a available phone, but they have no stock and do not know if/when they will be getting them in. O'well. I guess it will be a refurb for me.
Read this thread from FEBRUARY: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=637163
I did order the phone. I was planning on doing the $100 HTC trade up rebate, but it is not good on refurb phone purchases. But since there was no actual cost to the phone no big deal. I get to keep the tilt as a spare. On my TP2 purchase last week, I am sending in a Treo that was collecting dust and getting my $100 rebate.
I don't care if the phone is old (which it is not really) or not selling well. It does what I want it to do. It has no real replacement, and definitely the right cost. I upgraded 2 smart phones and the total cost will be -$50. Not a bad deal at all.
2 Tilt 2's would have been o.k. but the wife did not want/need the physical keyboard. Plus I could see a day when we would grab the wrong phones on the way to work and then be screwed.
LetsTalk.com has them along with Wirefly.com. Both available under the add a line program. Cost depends on your timing, they run them NIB for free MOST of the time, but have seen them listed for about $50 US.

I did not see them there. The only HTC that came up for AT&T was the tilt 2. I do believe they are gone, (or going away quickly). Not to be selfish but, I got mine.... or at least it is coming.... since it is coming Us Postal Service, I have a great hope for it to show up on saturday.
I can see the problem. my wife on Wed said that she would prefer the one without the keyboard. Then after she found out that it might not be available, she was o.k. with going tilt 2 as an option instead. I can see that conversation occurring throughout the country. In this case however the tilt 2 (new) was $199 vs the Pure (refurb) at $0. I am pretty sure I made the right choice.

Wow.. I knew ATT was pulling them out of their stores but it seems EVERYONE is now. I've seen ATT pull phones before and places like Wirefly have them still 6 months later. I just checked on them 2 days or so ago when MY wife was eyeballing MY Pure..

As of thursday morning AMAZON was the only one who had them. They wanted 0.01 for a new line and $80 for an upgrade.
Amazon does not do the add a line, and phones purchased though them cannot be combined with an existing family account (like you can with att's own phones) without a $250 penalty within the first 6 months. ATT tracks by device ID, as long as the device is activated, they don't care how. Amazon get their comission based on account number. If you do the new account option, then try to combine the accounts, you will lose the new account number and be fined.
If you did upgrade by the end of May, you could do the HTC trade up rebate if you have an old device to send in and get $100 back. Then the phone would be -$20...even free shipping.
They did say that stock levels were low for the pure.

Ebay had some friday.. got busy and didn't get a chance to come here and post on it. Some of those dealers offer add a line. It's gonna suck if I ever have to do a phone swap though and no one has new ones. I love my Pure the way it is now. The stock ROM bites but the Energy is rockin'. A friend had a refurbed phone from ATT and whenever it got hot here his screen would fog up from internal moisture.

I have had some good luck with refurbs, but of course there are some horror stories. In this case I am sure that the cost saving will be worth it. The way I am upgrading and shuffling phones around, it will leave me with 1 line with an upgrade option on it. This will give me a chance to be able to replace any phone that breaks out of warranty in the coming months. Keeps the insurance cost down to zero.
First thing you do with any phone you get, new or refurb is check the white patch under the battery to make sure it is NOT pink in any way. That is the indication that the phone has been wet.
I love my Pure. Actually since me buying mine, my good friend and also my father have made the jump too. Its a pretty good touchscreen phone that is feels just the right size. I hope you all are successful in your attempts to get your hands on one. We knew they were going to get pulled months ago because of the low sales (wtf). I guess most people prefer the TP2 (meh).

I just got it and after a long 40 minutes on the phone with at&t the did all the juggling on my account and got it working. (even got them to waive the activation fee).
So far so good. I am charging it now, so that I can flash it to the (same) energy rom that I have on my tilt 2.
The battery in the Pure was draining the website so they stopped selling it :|

[Q] Should I keep my Galaxy Tab?

Hey there!
First post since making my account close to two years ago
I just recently purchased a Galaxy Tab through Rogers w/o a contract. It was pretty much a impulse buy. After going on here and reading what I could do to the device, I caught glimpse of some threads saying to hold off for the Xoom and some other tablets that are coming out.
I own a iPhone4, Macbook Pro (13") and a Alienware M17x (17").
The thing I love most about the Galaxy Tab is the form factor. I find the size comfortable. Reading about the new tablets with dual core processors and 10" + screens is exciting tho. Currently in Canada the Tab's are not cheap I paid $755 including taxes. I do have 15 days to return the Tab.
Should I return it and wait for something new? or do you think if or when honeycomb is ported over it will still be able to compete with the xoom or some of the newer tablets of 2011.
Thanks! Sorry for the long post, thought I'd make it a good one to break my XDA cherry
-Geby.
prices will drop. return it.
yeah, return it and wait for the next new shiny thing to be released, but then hang on because the next even more shiny and even newer thing will be on the horizon so best wait for that. Oh, don't buy that version because it will be out of date when the next new bit of kit comes along.
Enjoy what you have, so if it's out of date in 18 months sell it then and buy something newer.
I reckon that my 'tech fund' for phones etc costs me about £10 a week - money well spent.
Just for the record, there is no way I'd part with my Tab or my X10
keep it, it's always best to buy "newer" units after 6 months since its release. (better prices, no more bugs, updated firmwares etc)
dont even think twice take it back i just got 2 of them 3 days ago and find it to get boring seeing that it does not work as good as it should esp iu had 750 in 2 and decided to f it there will be the tab 2 in june plus the moto xoom

$755??? WTF!!! Return it, drive across the border and buy one for $300
Yeah- at that price I'd take it back and scout around for a cheaper one. If you don't find it in a month or so then wait for the next version.
You can always argue that the next one will be better, but with an upgrade cycle now for most phone-tablets-electronic devices of about 6 months you have to draw the line somewhere and get something. Otherwise you will be like the couple that keeps putting off having a child until they can afford it, or have the time for it. It never happens!
Or, if you wait to long to make up your mind and the return period runs out you can always send it to me. I could use a nice gift right about now
I agree, got mine at Tmo about 3 weeks ago for $350.00 on contract; went back to the store tdy and got $. 50 back on my ccard and $ 50 mail back rebate: = $ 250.00 total cost I figured will use it for 6 to 9 months and by then the prices of the new models will be way better than at launching...
I bought one today for $533 new from Best Buy. I didn't sign up for a plan cause I have free hotspot on my EVO, so it doesn't make sense to pay Sprint $30 a month for what I have free. I've connected it to my Evo and it works great....BUT I am wondering if I should have waited on the tab 2 or spend a little more and get the Xoom.
Hey guys and gals. The money wasnt a huge issue with buying the tab. The main thing was if i should wait a month for something better. Looking on ebay i see that you guys are dead on about the prices. Which carriers are compatible with my rogers 3G?

[INFO] Selling my Transformer (D.C. Area)

I don't know if I'm allowed to post this or not so if not please close it down.
I bought a transformer a couple days after release, I got a little too caught up in the hype and paid $25 for one in a sealed box on craigslist.
Long story short, It's nice but I don't care for the physical size of it. I'm going to wait on the Galaxy tab 10.1. I have it posted on craigslist at the moment but I know alot of people here are still looking for one.
So, if you live in the DC/Southern Maryland area or are willing to drive and you are interested please contact me via PM or email me at [email protected]
I'm only interested in selling to someone who is willing to meet me to pick it up and pay cash, no paypal or shipping, sorry it's too much of a pain in the ass and too risky.
I'm asking $500 for it (I paid $525). I am willing to go as low as $425 however that's the best I can do.
It is in brand new condition. I used it for 1 day before I decided it was too big for me and I'd rather wait on the 10.1. It is currently rooted with clockwork recovery and running Prime Rom version 1.3. I can return it to stock if you prefer.
BAN!!!!!!!
you can't post sales here...
and the TF is slightly bigger than Xoom because it needs to fit in the kb dock
What a way to sell something: "I'm asking $500 for it (I paid $525). I am willing to go as low as $425"
You're collecting money in exchange for a product/service, it's selling. Just eBay it man, you'll get much more for it.
Not trying 2 rag you but.....will someone really pay ABOVE retail for something used that you have been jacking around with???
If so, send them my way when ur done. I have a 3 story beach-front in the Mojave I need to unload. (4 a great price of course)

btw
Sorry guys, no sales outside the Marketplace

Just ordered my wife one of these for Xmas. SCREAMING good deals on Newegg/Tiger

She wants an "ipad" but by that she means a tablet. I can NOT justify spending $500 on a 16GB ipad or $400 on a 16GB Nexus 10 for that matter. The Infinity is really the only high end one that I would jump on but that is way overkill for what she is doing (pics, vids, music, web browsing, kindle). So I started looking for "budget" tablets and it was down to this or the Xoom. Xoom is $259-$270 manufacturer refurbished but we all know the TF101 blows it out of the water and Newegg/Tiger are selling them for $229 refurbished right meow. I trust Newegg and they have an amazing RMA policy AND they have extended returns all the way through January 1st no questions asked and free shipping. Kind of hard to beat.
Newegg deal $229 free shipping
Very excited to be getting this. She is not crazy big into rooting or ROM'ing but I'll be on here looking around so if she has any complaints that can be addressed by a ROM or something (like cleanROM on the Infinity) it'll be GTG.
Any advice for me before I wrap it up and leave it under the tree for her to wonder wth it is? Obviously going to test it as it is a Refurb so I have time to send it back and get a new one if its bad but is there like... MUST have mods to do to it or should it work fine for her out of the box stock ICS? Again, she is not an Android nerd like I am and only cares that it works and is fast for what she is doing. She wont' be doing any gaming minus light stuff to shut up our 4 year old in the car lol.
Thanks XDA
Any reason why you aren't considering the nexus 7 for her?
Size and expandable memory. Like I said she is going to be using it for pics, videos, books and browsing. Size matters to my wife. Lol
why are you not considering tf300? it's Tegra 3 and you can get a brand new one for around $270. There were a couple of deals in the last week for that amount and i'm sure there will be more of these...

I've had a TF101 from day 1 and just got a Nexus 7 to replace it. The TF101 has been good to me but wanted something faster, that could playback high profile encodes, easier to hold and under 400 bucks. I strongly considered the Nexus 10 but 16GB isn't cutting it anymore and I'm not paying 100 for another 16 gigs. I prefer non-metal construction so I love the nexus devices. The metal corners of the TF101 cut into your skin after a few mins. The no SD card was a big deal to me too but then I learned you can mount external storage if you just get a USB OTG adapter. For movies and music, not apps. I will miss the back camera most of all for video chatting, showing people things and my 1 year old doesn't exactly sit still. You will enjoy the TF101. If you want another used one let me know

I agree here, return te TF101, while it is still a good tab, don't get me wrong, but getting her the 300 would actually be A LOT better in the long run. Less issues, JB out of the box, and only minimal mods to make it work fluidly. If she is a heavy texter, then I would suggest preinstalling a few apps like Tablet Talk (by one of our DEV'S here.) and maybe a few others that you think she might want to have on it.
But definately return the TF101 and get the 300. You're only a few bucks more into it, and in the long run it will be further supported. ASUS has already stated that they will provide KLP for the TF300 and up, where as the rest of us will be stopped at JB (for official ROM'S).

Oh yeah I had no idea the TF300 was available NEW for that price. And the nice thing about getting it at BB is I can get a 1 or 2 yr warranty on it. I think I could have with Newegg too but I like being able to take things to the store and talk to a person, even if it is the geeksquad...
Going to order the TF300 now and I'll RMA the 101 to Newegg when it comes in probably tomorrow.
Edit: Just ordered, picking up in store, $299 after tax, the TF101 REFURB was $246 after tax so an extra $53 for a MUCH better tablet. And factor in the $25 gift card and that makes it $274. I can use the $25 to get a present for my brother in law or something so with the gift card only $29 more to go to a new TF300 from refurbished TF101. You guys rock and THANK YOU SDFGHI for those links. Heck I almost bought two but I don't see myself using a tablet really that much. I think the screen on my smartphone is big enough and if not I got a lapdock for it for $50 last month that turns it into an 11" Android netbook. If I do get one for me I'll probably be a selfish ass and get the Infinity for me lol.

You are quite welcome from my end. At least we can see that you thought it through clearly and decided that a LITTLE more for NEW was better then a little less for refurbished. Correct buying it at BB you can get the extended warranty, get the ACCIDENTAL DAMAGE ALSO. Found that out with my wife's DSLR, strap holder broke, letting the camera fall from her neck and hit the iced over concrete. It looked like that scene from Terminator 2 when the liquid metal terminator got froze then shot and exploded.
Sadly (not really) they no longer made or had available the same camera I had initially bought my wife, so they had to *sigh* upgrade her to the next one up. Now if I buy something from them I make sure to get the max extended warranty and the accidental damage coverage.
Also as a side note, just root it before she even opens it. Set it up for side loading and all all ready.
I might root it... I dunno its all nice in the shrinkwrap right now and I'd like her to open something brand new. Then again I'd probably be better off checking it... And damn I completely spaced my own advice on getting the protection plan. Probably should gander on back and pick it up for the tablet. Either way she's going to flip **** because she says she doesn't really want anything for xmas but I KNOW she is dying for a tablet.

Sprint pre-order discussion

I figured I would start a thread where we can discuss our pre-orders and let everyone else know when we start receiving shipping notifications.
I pre-ordered the black onyx on the 3rd online. Just hoping I might get it a few days earlier than release.

I pre-ordered mine on the 7th through sprint's website. I got the black version and I'm planning on getting the smart watch. If the Micro SD card offered anything significantly different I would have done that (as it is valued more) but its only slightly faster and I don't need that much storage. Already been looking at accessories like chargers and cases! Getting excited! Its a big move from my Note 2

Thanks for asking... I've decided on the Fit2. Had an early Gear watch, but didn't think much of it, so I ended up giving it to one of my nephews. Hopefully the newer wearables have more functionality (specifically for golf, like a Garmin). Way I see it, the sd cards are fairly common, and I have a 128GB card with room to spare still. And I went with the Silver Titanium... kind of a timeless look IMHO. Although the blue and black both looked pretty nice. Especially the blue, which is a nice sharp look for it. And the black is another classic look which never gets old.
Have you decided on which freebie you want yet?

Same here, coming from the Note 2. Absolutely LOVE that device. Had a chance to try out a Note 4 a couple of years ago when I thought my Note 2 went bad (actually had a battery issue) and wasn't very impressed. This is the one major downside I see for the Note 7 - embedded battery (knock on wood).
Either way, I am totally stoked for this device and can NOT wait for it to arrive... (and the subsequent dev for it too).

Hopefully the bootloader isn't locked, but it sounds like it probably is. I'm sure we will get root, the only question is when.
Cheap case/screen protector along with SD card I ordered are arriving today, so I'm all set. I'll get a good case and hopefully a tempered glass protector once the device has been out a while and we know what's good.
I'm going with the Fit 2 for the freebie, wife wants it. SD cards are getting cheaper by the day, so I just buy them.
Anyone know if choosing standard shipping instead of express will make a difference for pre-orders? I didn't see that express was free so I picked standard. My order page says pre-orders will ship by the 17th so I'm not sure
Sent from my SM-N910P using XDA-Developers mobile app
My pre orders with sprint have always been the same. They ship it 2 days before the release date if they have full stock. Nobody is getting it from sprint.com before the 19th. They even put on the label to deliver on the 19th hence this is why they ship 2 day mail.
Sprint has always been the same with these having at your door but the day of release not a day before no matter when you ordered.
I got a cheap case as well should do the trick and will get the 256G card
Hoping it comes early my birthday is Friday and that would make a great bday gift. I'm probably going with the card, because I'm waiting for the gear s3 announcement. Maybe sprint will offer this one on the lease plan. Already have the supcase unicorn beetle pro and spigen neo hybrid crystal sitting in my drawer. I'll get the defender once it comes out, hopefully soon.

Hopefully the bootloader isn't locked, but it sounds like it probably is. I'm sure we will get root, the only question is when.
Cheap case/screen protector along with SD card I ordered are arriving today, so I'm all set. I'll get a good case and hopefully a tempered glass protector once the device has been out a while and we know what's good.
I'm going with the Fit 2 for the freebie, wife wants it. SD cards are getting cheaper by the day, so I just buy them.

I never rooted my note 5 (first Android phone I never rooted) I was really hoping samsung pay would support my bank and still nothing. I just didn't want to lose that feature if and when I was able to actually use it. I'll probably never root my n7 unless I keep it for more than a year and my bank still isn't supported.

Ordered mine on the 3rd through Sprint customer service. Got free shipping and no activation fee being I've been with them for 12+ years. I have a Huawei watch but think I am still going to get the Gear 2. Also picking up a Ringke Slim case. It protects all the edges but feels like the phone doesn't have a case. Pumped too as I have had every Note since the Note 2. Note 4 probably is my favorite so far.

Thanks for asking... I've decided on the Fit2. Had an early Gear watch, but didn't think much of it, so I ended up giving it to one of my nephews. Hopefully the newer wearables have more functionality (specifically for golf, like a Garmin). Way I see it, the sd cards are fairly common, and I have a 128GB card with room to spare still. And I went with the Silver Titanium... kind of a timeless look IMHO. Although the blue and black both looked pretty nice. Especially the blue, which is a nice sharp look for it. And the black is another classic look which never gets old.
Have you decided on which freebie you want yet?
Same here, coming from the Note 2. Absolutely LOVE that device. Had a chance to try out a Note 4 a couple of years ago when I thought my Note 2 went bad (actually had a battery issue) and wasn't very impressed. This is the one major downside I see for the Note 7 - embedded battery (knock on wood).
Either way, I am totally stoked for this device and can NOT wait for it to arrive... (and the subsequent dev for it too).

I'm thinking the gear fit also. My wife is going with the card I think.
Hope everyone is aware it can take up to 3months to receive sd card or fit2 would have been alot better if you could have picked at the time of pre-order and had it shipped with phone

I ordered mine on 8/5 from www.bestbuy.com......didn't have to pay a fee for the mail-in rebate.......will receive it on 8/19. Also ordered my Spigen Neo-Hybrid case from Amazon and it shipped today. Excited to get my NEW NOTE 7......
I know it can take take up to 3 months, but when I got my note 5 I got the wireless charger promo and it didn't take that long. Hopefully it will be the same, because I also received 2 wireless chargers. I wouldn't mind getting a bonus 256gig card to sell and keep one for myself. Or sell both and buy a gear s3.

So excited!!
I ordred my on 8/3 in the Sprint store. I think I am opting for the SD card because I have a gear s2 now and it works great..
Once we know what's good
What are the odds that two note 3's would die, in a month from one another? I really liked that phone, and after losing my Note2 in a rogue wave, I got a pair of Note 3's off ebay, in Mint cond. I didn't wanna buy used again, so I got a Note 7 on the payment plan... I too bought a cheap all in one case (360 degree protection, for under $9?)... then I won't feel so bad, when I get the phone, and I'm disappointed when this (almost $1,000 device, after sales tax!) doesn't multi task (IE: won't surf, while on a call, like Spark, and successor to Spark... "enhanced LTE" It's not in my area, when last I checked, so I'll be looking to buy a new, in the box Note 3; the most advance non-Spark device.

I wish Sam's club in PR was doing that! Unfortunately, the ****bags that operate Sam's PR couldn't suck more, if they tried!

I pre-ordered mine on the 7th through sprint's website. I got the black version and I'm planning on getting the smart watch. If the Micro SD card offered anything significantly different I would have done that (as it is valued more) but its only slightly faster and I don't need that much storage. Already been looking at accessories like chargers and cases! Getting excited! Its a big move from my Note 2

how excited will you be if you can't use web, or text, while on a call? If that happens, I'm returning mine, and buying a new note 3 or even new Note 2! (Won't buy used... maybe refurb, by factory)

Hoping it comes early my birthday is Friday and that would make a great bday gift. I'm probably going with the card, because I'm waiting for the gear s3 announcement. Maybe sprint will offer this one on the lease plan. Already have the supcase unicorn beetle pro and spigen neo hybrid crystal sitting in my drawer. I'll get the defender once it comes out, hopefully soon.
