    SPIGEN cases - anyone gotten theirs yet?

    I won't order from Spigen any longer. Slooooow shipping, poor customer service and Amazon will not do one thing about it.

    Galaxy Note 3 - Case & Covers Thread

    Re: Note 3 Case Thread. @jayp1306: I ordered a couple of Spigen cases, then found out the pre-orders were paying $10 more. I asked for a refund, which was refused, but asked again, since the price decrease occured on the very same day they became available and the very same day they sent me...

    T-Mobile Online & Pre-Orders Backordered but Stores have Stock!

    I totally agree, David. I've learned my lesson with both T-Mobile and with Spigen. No more pre-orders! And as a test, I chatted with a sales agent online with T-Mobile right after I had called, and they told me the phones were IN STOCK and had been shipping since 9-29-13. She changed her...

    T-Mobile Online & Pre-Orders Backordered but Stores have Stock!

    After talking with T-Mobile this morning, and asking them to cancel the order (which they refused to do), all of a sudden the status changed from backordered to pending (again). This happened within 3-5 minutes of my phone call. Something strange is going on with them.

    T-Mobile Online & Pre-Orders Backordered but Stores have Stock!

    We pre-ordered on 9-20-13 and have yet to get our phones, despite a promised 10-1-13 ship date. TMob will put a hold on credit card, then release it a few days later. This has happened twice. Calls to customer service are a waste of time. They don't/won't/can't tell you anything. Even...

    Galaxy Note 3 - T-Mobile Pre-Order Delays?

    We placed our Note 3 Pre-Orders on the morning of 9-20-13. (2 Black version) and have yet to receive a ship date. The original credit card "test" was done, and that fell off the account 3-4 days later. Now, 3 days ago, T-Mobile charged the account again, but no ship date has been given. I...

    Message App Lag

    I haven't messed with the App that much, but I don't see why you can't "organize" the 53k of messages that you have by restoring some by date (or other criteria), then save them again. You can access these messages whenever you want by going to the App and clicking on "view". That shows the...

    Message App Lag

    @Matt I like to save texts & attachments (photos) also, so I use SMS Backup & Restore and Save MMS Apps. I think you'll find these to be great Apps and will help you archive those texts AND attachments (photos). (Then I move them to my desktop computer for safe keeping, but there's nothing...

    Why I'm skipping on the SPRINT NOTE 3 and why you should too.

    Gary, Yes, Sprint offers discounts to "government" employees, which includes teachers i.e. educators. It is somewhere on their site (business side of their site) and you have to send them an email from your business email account, NOT your personal email account. That validates your employer...

    How will you transfer files, apps, settings to your new Note 3?

    Do any of you have any good tips on transferring files, settings, apps, from your old phone to your new GN3? I have some content on SD cards, but other is on the internal memory (assuming it can be moved to the SD card). How about Apps? Do they all have to be re-installed? Any way to print...

    What Brand & Model of SD Card do you Suggest? SanDisk? PNY? Kingston? Others?

    I'm thinking of purchasing either a 32GB or 64GB for the Note 3's we have on order. SanDisk has "Ultra" / "Extreme" / "Extreme Pro". While the Extreme Pro seems to be a bit overkill, does anyone have a suggestion on whether to use Extreme vs Ultra? How about some of the other brands? Are...
