I had to drive over an hour, and then the place was hard to find, but I just kept thinking it was worth it..... brand new, LTE, Qualcomm processor. And sure enough I really love it! Seems way smoother than my old Tab S with exynos.
I had a problem updating it, but now I know I can always flash the latest world firmwares from Sammobile. Managed to update my security patch level from May to November. I don't figure there will be much to flash, but I may root it today, and then just always flash and root the latest international firmwares.
The big surprise is that my Tmobile smartphone sim works in the tablet, and seems to possibly work fully! Texting, phone calls, and data! Makes me tempted to up my plan to a One unlimited data plan, but maybe that's getting too crazy. So far it seems to work like a regular phone tho!
Anyway, I'm happy with this acquisition. Any other T719 owners here with tips or Info? Thanks
The "7" is the LTE, right?
I've just ordered then wifi only one (no use for LTE/phone tech), Snappy core.
I saw a review that showed the Snappy and the Exy side by side - the Snappy was visibly faster on doing the same thing and posted a benchmark some 30% higher than the Exy core one.
Should be good... hopefully, when (if) it arrives.

I saw a post somewhere here where someone explained what each digit means, but I believe the 7 indicates that it's the smaller model, in this case 8 inches, as opposed to the 8xx, which is the 9.7 inch model.
But in any case, I think you'll like it, it actually runs smoothly. This is my first Tab S2, but I had the Tab S with Exynos, and it was super stuttery, especially considering it's an expensive device!

Nice, but I got an even better deal. I bought a T710 for $100 because the Wifi wasn't working. I figured the seller had just messed up somehow and maybe I could fix it. Turns out I don't need to. The warranty is good until Nov 2017 so Samsung is fixing it for free!!!

Thats a good score haha! Exact thing happened to me once where i bought a broken Android phone for $80, couldn't fix it because it really was broken, but found out it was under warranty and Samsung sent it to me fixed up like new.

I think you're right - the last digits say the sub-type.
13 = wifi
17 = lte, as far as I know.
And the other guys - it makes you wonder... why didn't the seller do the warranty thing?
I mean... if something breaks down.. the very first thing I do (after a yell of frustration) is to check the warranty to see if it's still valid.
Good catches though!

I was surprised not just by the fact that it was in warranty but also by how long it had left. Nov 2017. It wasn't built until April of 2016.

Their policy is one year from the original date of sale. But not being the original buyer, I don't know what that was. I bought it on eBay from what appears to be an online dealer selling many different products.
All I know is that when I contacted tech support, they checked the serial number and gave me the info about the build date and warranty expiration. It is now in route to NJ for repair.

I held a Note at the local cellular store the other day and I thing I fell in love. I currently have a Galaxy S and I do love it (Except the crappy GPS) but my contract is up next November and I started to see what is out there and what is coming out in the near future.
As my motto is The Bigger the Better when is comes to screen size (with-in reason) I wondered if the Note would be too big. But, it's not. I really like the size and it fits in my pockets as well.
So, last night I had a dream I lost my Galaxy S and I was running all over trying to find it, going out of my mind. The next thing, I tripped and my phone jumped out of a secret pocket (it's a dream remember) and when I picked it up, it was a Galaxy Note.
My contract is up when the Note will be about a year old. Does Has anyone heard if a new version is coming around that time? I know it's a while away, but I am curious.
Thanks,
Ian
no news about the next Note, but given the fanfare this version has received, it's nearly inevitable that there will be one. just hang on
One thing I've learned: It's simply not worth it to wait for month and hope. Just go for it and be happy...
@GPS: I've got my Note yesterday, so I could'nt test it properly yet. But one thing surprised me today: I walked to a local grocery store and used the app "GPS status & toolbox". I started it and had 5 seconds (no lie!) later a fix with 17 satellites! Holy crap, that was quick!

This is great to hear. My GPS only works with a ROM from Europe. I have never had GPS with the stock BMC (Canada) ROM.
Hey, leppo, how does your GPS work with the Canadian version? Are you still on the stock ROM?
Ian
i ordered the international version from an importer nearby, and the gps is amazing... very similar experience to the above poster. if you want to know how the Bell/Telus/Rogers version performs, head over to the Note i717 (AT&T) forum. they're the same thing.
I dreaming about one too.... Still using a Omnia II with WM6.5. Got another year to wait on my contract (corporate, no early upgrade options) tempted to just buy one and then wont have to be locked into another contract for a while.

I felt the EXACT SAME WAY, because it hadn't even been a year yet since I bought my HTC HD2, but after I lost it, I went ahead and bought the note.
Trust me when I tell you this, IT WAS WORTH IT. The note is the best toy you can buy, until the note 2 comes out. And even then, the note will hold you over until the note 3 comes out. Even with it's imperfections, the note is badass.

Actually, I got it through a clever dealer who arranged for me to get a Nexus on 3yr subsidy with Bell, then swapped it for this Note. I paid $140 for it, including the price to get the Nexus
The Note has GPS and the russian GLONASS (GPS is american). More satelites = faster and more reliable.

anyone know where ot get an unlocked, no Bell bloatware version in Canada?
I got mine through a company called "Mobile DNA", which is a store in Richmond BC. They can be found on facebook... Though there are undoubtedly some stores nearer to you.

If you're going to buy the Note, I suggest you do what leppo did and get the international version. If the Bell/Rogers version is the same as the AT&T version, it has the Snapdragon 1.5GHz dual core processor which I read is not as fast as the Exynos Dual-core 1.4GHz processor.
Are you going to root your Note? If so, use Titanium Back-up to remove all the bloatware you don't want. I do that, I remove all the software that comes with Android I do not use.
Ian
Mobile DNA is only BC, not Ontario, but thanks. I would like to get the international version if at all locally as I don't like the wait! Not sure about rooting it yet, I'm thinking I'll just play around with it for a while before rooting it or flashing it.
This is one of the threads I started when I was dreaming about the GNote :

I've had my note for about a week, and am loving it. My previous phone was a Galaxy S2, and the note feels like a big upgrade. I've noticed that GPS locks on super fast - faster than any other GPS I've used including Garmin units.

My order (Black) on eXpansys shows "In stock in 8 days", so the date should be before the 29th, that was now said to be the "official" one...
What about your ones?
Do you think that will be really getting it before everyone else, since they are the official HTC distributors?
Expected 7 Days
silver
Mines 9 days (Black)

Blame the manufacturer, not the one who sold it to you.
Bought my galaxy note from them, the note died 5 months after purchase (still within 12 month warranty) and they literally refused to honour the warranty. And now it just sits there.
Samsung also refuse to help me because it was purchased from an international store.
So now I'm stuck with a phone that doesn't work and I cannot get fixed even when I offered to pay both Samsung and eXpansys.
If I was to purchase internationally again, I'd go clove or handtec like I've done in the past.

Why? I've been using them for years. Only ever had one problem where they sent me a used phone, which they rectified to my satisfaction.
Bought my Note 2 and HTC One X from them.. no problems at all.. i can say their customer service is trash tho..
Its like they only have 8 people working there.. 1 manage shipping, the rest just answer calls
but this was eXpansys USA.. so idk if its the same in your country
From eXpansys website:
SIlver: Stock Expected In 6 Days
Black: Stock Expected In 7 Days
UPDATE: eXpansys just communicated that, even for them, launch date will be on 29th, as for everybody else.
Can't wait
Yesterday it said 7 days.
Now, today it says 16 days...
I can't wait any longer
EDIT: I just read they will launch it on the 29th, like everyone. It still suck though but maybe it's better because I have exams till the 29th.

I ordered the T-Mobile version earlier today, FINALLY. Not sure if I should have waited for the DEV edition, but the T-Mobile version comes with an unlockable bootloader so I guess that's good. If the DEV edition becomes available later this week I will simply return the tmo version and get that.

Might wait for the Dev. Edition and/or Motomaker edition, the appealing thing about the Moto X is the possibility of the 32gb internal storage and you won't get that with the carrier version.

Almost bit the bullet and bought one of these. Can't justify dropping 600 bucks for 16gb and from most accounts a poor camera and average screen. I really wanted to love the phone, but in my limited time in playing with one, I just don't feel it's a 600 dollar product. Motorola pays 220 dollars to have the phone made, they would have taken over the world if they didn't try to get 3x the price out of customers.

And congrats!
I tried to order one several times yesterday. I had it the basket every time and when I clicked the purchase button I kept getting a message about an error with my credit card which has plenty of money on it. Now I have three holds pending on my credit card in the amount of the purchase and they all say Motorola Direct. First chat session was cut off and second one was with a person saying the only moto x available for purchase was the att exclusive one. I told them they had bad information and they insisted I was wrong. I made a call about it and have had two call backs today but each time I was busy. Hoping for another call back today because I'm not going to sit on hold for another 20 minutes today to see what they have come up with. They did admit that the website has a problem but without more info I am in the dark still I'm losing my faith in this company and it sucks because I want to try this phone and give them a chance but it is frustrating so far. I know its early in the game for the T-Mobile variant but damn, its not looking good so far.

Are you also annoyed at handset manufacturers snubbing us please share your views and why you think this is happening more often.
Can't say I'm surprised, although it is disappointing. Apparently LG's decision was because they think Europeans don't like big screen phones. Hopefully, if there is a European release it won't have reduced storage like the LG V10.

I'm *really* hoping that Clove don't jack up the price to beyond reasonable. I mean they're providing 2 years warranty with it and are importing them too but if it's astronomical they'll only sell a handful if that and I don't know if it would even be worth it for them. I do hope it's fairly priced. Aside from that I'm going to check amazon.de and amazon.fr and I'll need to check my phone insurance will cover it since it won't be a UK released phone.
Such a shame LG aren't releasing it in the UK yet again....
Anyone know how one would approach the warranty situation if it's bought from Amazon.de or.fr? I'd guess just sending it back to Amazon wouldn't be too difficult within the normal warranty period for the device?
Waiting patiently for clove to release details also. With the debacle that is the note 7, I'm hoping a non UK release decision gets rethought.

Hey mate. Where did you order the US model from? I'm interested in getting one but all I can see are Korean models for sale on eBay etc.
Darn !!! The phone has a faulty camera !!! The ois continuously shakes and the phone vibrates whenever I open the camera app... I purchased it from a seller who stated it was new ..BS they bloody would have known it was f#&!&#D . going through return processes now
On a positive side the sound was so good and loud I couldn't put it max. The Dolby atoms demo was friggen amazing. Screen is bright and very nice so no idea what some people are moaning about the brightness for as its similar to my G4. Couldn't test camera though !! Lol. Looks like this is a sign to get the EU model from Amazon.de then. Ha ha.
Never returned anything to USA before so let's see what happens with postage and custom fees.

I don't see that anywhere in the phone description,ya sure you didn't get a counterfeit?
Sounds like it to me,or a rooted device that in the process,broke the camera............................

There is Dolby on the phone it worked fine. Tested the demo video etc. Here is a video of the issue
can't see it was rooted or a fake device as it came with all the box and registration / warranty stuff and all serial numbers checked out . Seller has accepted return and he is going to do a warranty claim his end. Not really bothered as will get my money back. Shame I now have to get an eu model or go with the plan of getting a pal to buy one from USA but if it breaks warranty will be difficult with customs and delivery charges. Eekk

Sorry to hear about the issues with your handset, however, glad to hear you're able to get your money back.
THX for the heads-up on the Dolby Atmos , I'll be checking it out later today, when mine arrives.

In the process of returning my second phone now for this issue... what a pain. Glad to see they recognized it as a problem though!

They mentioned all devices manufactured after Jan 2017 should not have this issue. I received my phone 2 weeks ago. Is there a way to find out when my phone was manufactured?
Not sure, but I will say that I doubt I will be purchasing a phone from google again... spent half my day trying to get expedited shipping with no luck from them (this is a business phone).
You're not going to buy a phone because you can't get expedited shipping? That makes sense.

It's kind of important when it's a business phone. Heck it's important when it isn't business.
Frankly I see nothing wrong with taking your money where it benefits you best, regardless of how trivial someone else might find the gripe.

Come on, really? Get an inferior device because you can't wait another day or so? I guess I'm just not that impatient and I can use my current device for the interminable wait period of 2 days.

Inferior is subjective. Look at your convenient situation though of having another phone.
If it was my work phone I couldn't simply use another phone. It's not that easy.
It's a MICROPHONE issue, not Speakerphone.

I would like to know how to find out as well. Went through the "About Phone" but didn't come across anything. I purchased mine a little over a week ago from a corporate Verizon store, but no telling how long it had been sitting there in stock.
The only way to tell is by getting a refurbished one directly from Google.
How to check manufacturer date & where is it made from.

I don't have microphone issue but speaker crackling only heard that in paino app I don't hear it on phone calls or games...
2016/10/13 from Taiwan got my device in December after a month from join list to get black 128gb but for a short while the 128 silver was available so I got it.
Thank you so much! My Pixel XL serial number is HT723 so i guess it is manufactured on 2017Feb3 according to the link above.

If Serial sticker label on the Box says Rev B then you've got the revised version and you should be ok.
Just got off the phone with Project Fi to process an RMA. Mine was manufactured 01/23/2017 and got the microphone issue.

Importance is subjective, as well, but considering not getting expedited shipping is probably not actually affecting your business I'd say the importance should objectively be somewhat low.
Also, if this is a work phone and you're trying to get it today, there are literally stores everywhere that could sell it to you, in person. Aside from a locked bootloader, they're the exact same phone.
This is all irrelevant, because we know nothing about what (s)he was talking about, above. He very-well could have been trying to get Google to give him *free* expedited shipping for some reason, in which case none of this matters. I highly doubt he was just ordering a new phone and they were refusing to let him buy expedited shipping.

You lost me at there literally being stores everywhere that have the phone. Given the time I posted my response people were still waiting on shipments. And no importance isn't subjective when it comes to work communications. At least not for me. But hey we don't know his situation or anyone elses so it's kind of whatever at this point. Especially a month after the comment was made.
