Note 3 on MetroPCS?

[the hulk]

does anyone know if I will have to get a NEW sim card for my note 3 next week? im already on the LG F3 which is GSM so I'm not sure I can just pop it in or have to get a new one.. Thanks

you don't need a new one, if you use a full sized sim currently, just have the sim cut, the note 3 uses a micro-sim right? If not, a metro dealer can sell you one

The one in the f3 is smaller then the traditional sims so im assuming its a micro sim..so it should just be able to pop in and go with service?

probably just have to have the sim cut, and call customer service to switch the device

has anyone figured out what it means? my note 2 has been misbehaving the past couple of days, if it continues, it's going out to pasture and I'm ordering the 3

Been searching and some are saying it's a KNOX bug

Found it pops up on me when turning wifi on

Is your wifi on after restarting?

 

[Joshuah22a]

Yea.. i just check the box to remind me after 3 days...theres a ongoing thread in the n3 section as well i noticed with a bunch of ppl having the same problem

 

[the hulk]

Thanks, now I'll be putting my note 2 out to pasture once I get it, had any luck with a good rugged case?

 

[Joshuah22a]

Yes! I ordered a ballastic rugged case..it goes for 49 before taxes but if you type in "redeem" in the coupon area it will take of $10 smackaroos! Plus you still get the free shipping! I posted the links in the 3rd page..good luck!

Please let us know how the reception compares to the Note 2.

Nice, hopefully otterbox wont be out of stock of the defender case, I will probably use the ballistic or trident until I can get the otterbox for it

Please let us know how the reception compares to the Note 2.

and definitely, once I get it in hands I'll let you know, it's an AT&T one, but it will work the same way

I had the otterbox for my s3 but didnt like it too much because the rubber skin that went around it would stretch i had to ask for warranty twice..

That's odd, none of mine did that, I use the defender series, which one did you have? and my cases just get severely beat up, when my stuffs transferred over, I'll post a pic of what my case looks like on my note 2 after the month that I've had it lol

anybody rooted theres yet?

Actually haven't felt the need to just yet. Only reason for now that I would is so I could get any app in multi window or pen window

mine's going to be AT&T branded, so I need to get it unlocked, I was reading about the chainfire thing that it may sim unlock it, so I dont have to pay anyone to unlock it, so I was just being curious.

Be careful with knox while rooting I heard is a pain

I will be, from what I read, its flashing a file to it via odin, and download your type of recovery and thats it.

My main concern is if I have to do anything to it go get LTE because it's AT&T branded, after I unlock it that is.

 

[Joshuah22a]

No reason to root here..back in the esteem days i did it to make the phine run more efficient But since the s3 i onky did it to remove bloatware..since the screen is bigger i can put almost all the apps i need in one window and group the rest in how they came in ex. Tmobile,google,samsung etc..ill post pics of my otterbox for my s3 to give you an idea shortly Hulk..
