historically Tmob will allow unlock if you are traveling overseas and no wait period. however i dunno about their policy on international customers. also Costco loves to throw in free stuff and gift cards.

Just rooted and flashed my Note II LTE with the perseus kernel. Running smoothly at 1.8GHz. Battery life improved too.

You have the NA version of the Galaxy Note II LTE?

I don't know if they do that right off the bat?

Mad jelly! Where did you get it and how much? How you liking it so far?

I believe he isnt in vancouver anymore, or north America.

so when they say the note2 will be available for purchase on the 30th, does that just mean for online orders or can I actually go to a carrier to pick one up? and what about the Samsung store...?

edit: also, what cases you guys thinking about?

Sorry its the international version. I'm in Hong Kong.

I also undervolted the phone. I think I can get 2+ days of usage now on a single charge.

Gah!... that was a good troll...

its okay, i still love you all the same :joy:

dammit, WIND! on on their pre register list for the Note2 and not even an email yet. Not a peep. GAAHHHH! I'm Dying here!

:troll:

This.

That video gave me a stiffy.

T-Mobile Galaxy Note 2 has dormant LTE support

There are 4 versions of Note:

1. International (+LTE): SGH-7100 / SGH -7105
2. SGH-i317 : ATT+(Rogers+Bell + Telus): HSPA 850/900/1900/2100, LTE: 700/850/1700/1900
3. SCH-i605 : CDMA + LTE 700
4. SGH-T889 : T-Mobile+Mobilicity+Wind : HSPA: 850/900/1700/1900/2100, LTE: 700, 1700

As per the link above, maybe, its JUST ME... but the SGH-T889 should be penta-band. And if so, Mobilicity/Wind versions of this phone is the one to get (assuming that the LTE is firmware locked)

man, they only need 1 Pentaband Note II to rule the world... and scrap the CDMA version.. lol...

So if the T889 has 2100 freq, does that mean it will work in Asia, since most of the providers there use this for HSPA network..

Also, I dont get this.. the NA version and the AWS version is pretty much the same except the NA has more LTE freq.. why cant they just make 1 version for NA.. lmao

I believe it has to do with the current LTE chip technology. Other companies are making different LTE for different market as well (ie: iPhone 5 got 3 diff versions with differnet LTE bands)

Just picked up my Note II.
its so much faster than the Note I. Narrower, and thinner.
I think I'm going to sell the Note I and get an SIII
