I'm green all the way so no reserve. Honestly I'm waiting for definitive word on the bootloader as well. No unlock equals no sale.

No nothing here either

I'm on the list. This will replace my HTC 10.
I prefer a 5in form factor so glad to know I get a phablet screen in this form factor.

+1 also .... just still trying to think about if buying a first gen product is the right move (as when is it really??) ... just seems like a great looking and functional phone though.

A couple of hours ago The official Samsung Twitter account posted a tweet “ tgeltaayehxnx,” which is a Countdown for the Next Galaxy. Samsung has also registered a domain name http://www.tgeltaayehxnx.com/ that claims to reveal something in the next 6 hours. Discover how Samsung is about to challenge the way you view the GALAXY once more .

Im confused, iv read from multiple sources this is either a new GALAXY or a new software update..
Im hoping for a new Galaxy as my SGSII has recently become boring.. need some fresh meat to get my hands on..
Guess we have to patiently wait..
Cannot wait! Perfect timing with my galaxy SII plan running out.

A part of my mind says that its fake while the other thinks the opposite lol ...cant wait for the next galaxy ...SII served me well i hope that the next does the same
It seems to be true as the domain is registered by reputed marketing agency The Upper Storey from Singapore

I think this is a way to see how many people from each country is interested in the SGS3 so they will know how many Galaxys to deliver to each country +-?
technical data of s3 seems pretty nice, but it will run with TouchWiz anyway :/
I don't expect to get much out of this countdown. If it's a GS3 teaser as the rumors say, then i will refer to GS2 teaser http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FNKe6pPBnc
I bet that all Samsung will deliver and expect to get out of todays teaser is hype and excitements.
It won't effect me though, since i can't get anymore hyped or exited

Also wireless Mouse/KB
and the best part for me is I can Connect my USB speakers to it.
But in case of speakers Battery must be charged well, as speakers are high powered device.
But it runs as long as battery is not down to like 30-40 %.
I just picked up a couple. They were .69/each with free shipping.

Amazed at what people can miss. Not to be a peni$ here, but this feature has been there since HoneyComb on my other tablets.
This is my first Android phone, so I cannot say if phones had it prior to ICS. I don't even know if other ICS phones support that, but this being a tablet and I can attest that this feature is not new and has been there since HC on old tablets.
What would be a neat feature is:
1. Add an icon to swipe. Just like on iPhones. I learnt how to modify those swipers that I made my own: with my girlfriend's pic, my pic, my motorcycle, my car, my ***, etc, etc.
2. Gesture unlock just like in Win8. Doodle on a picture to unlock the device. This looks like fun.

Didn't really post my "find" to brag on it or to try and determine, "how long its been around"....
Just wanted to share it with those who might not know about it, it makes the Note EVEN more enjoyable when u turn it on and see ur own lil personalization smilin' back @ ya!
I've had this for ages on my Jellybeaned DHD. Best bit is it is backed up and restored with Google backup.
I have my email address and a plea to return if found. As futile as it might be.

Fun spoilers
Hate to break it to you guys but if you took more care about what information you shared on the internet (such as names, emails, addresses etc - basic security stuff) you wouldn't have anything to fear from HTC's legal department. They can't file a successful lawsuit against an anonymous person now can they?

How can the OP pull the ROM? He didn't post it, a russian blog did. All the OP did was link to where he found it, I'm sure no disrespect was intended.
That's a real shame. If you want to name the people who ported it, then I'm more than happy to include them in the first post.
PS. Don't quote a post right above yours. It has no use.
