    Pre-ordered? Get yo money!!

    Spent two days on this now. Got a call back today from a supervisor that admitted the code works, but claimed that is irrelevant if they cannot confirm that the source of the code is valid, and she could not find it in her system. She even went so far as to say this appeared to be a fake code...

    BestBuy to have Verizon Galaxy Note 3 IN STOCK TOMORROW

    Verizon OTA JB 4.1.2 now pushing out

    At 0230 hours Eastern (USA) this morning both of my Verizon Sammy 2 7.0 tablets were upgraded automatically to 4.1.2., build number JZ054K.I705VRBLL2. WiFi and everything else seems to be working just fine. I never thought it was going to happen for the Verizon versions of this tablet.

    Received Official Android 4.1 Jelly Bean OTA this morning

    After total frustration with all tricks, I gave up yesterday and decided to wait it out. This morning I tried this just for grins using Power Toggles to turn Airplane Mode on/off quickly. Worked on the first try. Still cannot believe it. Tidewater Virginia. BTW, if this works for you please go...
