No Worries
To everyone else, there's still a few days left in the Australian competition so if you haven't entered already, then there's no time like the present.
Also, if you can (and if it's ok with the mods) reply to this thread so more people can have a chance of entering the comps.
Last Days!! bumped for your viewing pleasure
After it's been released please post on this thread a list of any online retailers stocking the Samsung Galaxy S3 and state what country the website is in,etc this should be helpful to others on here.
Thanks
with my respect , you're thread is misleading ... I expected to find a "List" !!!
Is this a question ? suggestion ? or what ?

To each their own.
I'm probably going to hit up handtec again
I bought my S2 and Note from them without a single issue despite what one member would like to tell everyone
It takes less than 24 hours for them deliver stuff overseas from uk to us

I am basically requesting that members post any websites they come across which have the Galaxy S3 on sale, this will be beneficial of others, the title of the thread says it all - List of online retailers.
Cheers
PS- Maybe the mods could make this a sticky so it wont get lost in transit as i can see this forum taking off massively very soon,ill be around here much more now than the SGSII forums.
NEGRI ALL THE WAY!!!!!! https://negrielectronics.com/samsung-i9300-galaxy-s-iii-unlocked-pebble-blue.html#.T6Ldklc6aUs.twitter
ALSO You aren't charged til they ship... But still NEGRI is the way to go in my opinion.
I have to say that I was also expecting to find a list of stores that are already selling the GS3
Official Off-Topic Thread
Hi to all from the moderation team. With a fast growing community there is a massive amount of general off topic chit chat going around in this forum. So we thought it best to give all a place to have a chat. This should hopefully take some pressure off the forums, so making it a better place for us all as there should be less junk to wade through trying to find what we need.
Now with that said, this does not mean there are no rules to this thread. All of XDA rules still apply. Flaming and the belittling of other users (of any title) will not be tolerated and dealt with harshly by the moderation team. This should be a fun place for us all to have a chat and a general vent of frustrations. Any moderation issues should still be handled by PM.
Let the fun begin!

Yes we are having our indian thread in every forum. I think mods are trying to avoid the spam and troll before the devices release.

its not right to close that thread as almost every devices on xda have Indian or other countries thread separately...so please open it
OK Guys, i hear you. The intention was not to only shut the Indian thread. It was shut because it was not titled as a Indian availability thread more a review/specs thread that i wanted to pull all together into one place. The OP is even written as such, so its very misleading. If its misleading to me then it most certainly is to a new user. So we have two options here, either open a new properly titled thread or the original one gets edited by the OP to make it a availability thread, which is fine.
Personally at this point i think a new one would be better, with the OP written with a current availability and a proper title. This would be much more helpful for all, as wading through all the previous old posts would be tiresome.
As i said, i am working to make this forum a nice place for all users, hence the pooling of information in the sticky threads. What i dont need is PMs that some of which can come across as very pushy. I do not respond to these sort of PMs. I am not saying i dont want to hear users suggestions, they are appreciated. Just try to do it in a polite informative manner, i am more than willing to negotiate. Not saying all the PMs were pushy, just a couple, so dont be offended.
So what are your thoughts, anybody up for starting a nice informative OP for a Indian availability thread?
Hi guys
Those who are from india looking for availability and prices go to the below thread.

Mod could have just changed the thread title if he wanted to. Locking the thread down was wrong.
Anyways, as there is a New similar thread now opened, alls well thats ends well....

Its been settled, drop it! I have explained the reasons why it was closed. You just stirring more trouble up is not going to help your cause. My advice has not been taken and the OP of the new thread is still not up to the standard. Now i suggest you read before posting again!

Hi Mod...
I am the OP of official Indian Note 2 thread.( Which everyone talking about )..... I just read your valuable comments....u said their i should rename that thread title to get that in business again...But can u tell me how can i rename the title of that thread i asked u because u locked that thread...
As far as i know there are tons of country related threads in every mobile phone general section....So i can not understand why that thread is closed.
We Indian Friends were there like a community to help out each other , so please consider our centiments
Waiting for a positive reply from you
Thanks & Best Regards

Sir, please understand the Moderator put in place threads for the entire Community, not just for your needs or requests. Reread O_G post, and move on...be understanding that the allowing of an OT and a few others threads is welcomed.
If this doesn't stop of "my thread...my thread"...The Moderator Team could just result in shutting down ALL non development threads down, and use what others deem as an iron fist type solution. This is not a threat, just an ask of compliance by understanding the "big" picture.
Additionally, I will ask all do not PM me requesting or wanting me to reevaluate another Moderator actions. As the actions taken here I fully support.
Enough said, thank you all for your time in this matter. Move on...

Indian friends, whats happening!! do we have a thread or not!!, any one from pune, whats update on availability of grey!!
Availability Thread
This thread has been created to give everybody the opportunity to share availability information. I am aware we have ones for different countries, but its looking like we will have one for every nation soon. These will be closed and further opening of such thread will also be closed. I really dont like the segregation of different countries as they often turn out to be "exclusive" discussion threads. XDA is all about a international community so i really dont want this forum to go against that ethos.
So lets all share that international spirit
Please only discuss availability in this thread, we now have sticky threads for off topic, reviews etc. This has been done to pool information for all users, hopefully making it a better place for all. I hope this has cleared up any questions.
EDIT: Do not post about moderation issues, these should be handled by PM

BTW it is a Development Forum, feel lucky OT and this thread are avail for you, believe me relaxation is at it's most. Thank You
Ideally I would like to argue. But, I think people from India should just take these discussions to an India forum rather than xda.

Yes. You would have to. Also its always best to ask the seller directly. I suggest. You wait a few days, unless you really want that asha
Hello,
we the members of Xda have been facing a problem with opening a official Indian owners thread on the new opened galaxy note 2 forum..
The thread has been created 3 times in past 2 days and have been closed by the newly assigned mods in the forum..
I request you on behalf of all the people from India that this thread be created or reopened (i didn't know who else to turn to as I have requested the mods there several times)
Why u keep closing thread when this types of thread have kept on existing and are running without any problem on many other threads..
What the mods exactly want the title/content is not being cleared..
Here are some thread that are running since the launch of that phone till today without being closed/problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1588700
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1623525
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1570507
This are just some phones I owned and their threads I used on daily basis..
Why problem only in note 2 thread..
Either specify what exactly the title/content should be or reasons why threads are being closed only here..
We find problems and difficulties finding latest stores, prices, availability, contacts of owners, and it would be really appreciated if thread be kept exited/reopened..
Thanking you..
Sent to broncogr, _Alex_ and senior moderators and moderator panel and this thread specific moderator..
Please understand and reopen or let a new thread be created..
Thanking you..
