Anyone, I guessed its better to post a small, stupid question here rather than a whole new thread!

I wish I could help still looking but it is better to start a new thread with the title of what it is you need help with. Keep in mind many users had the SG3 long before us. And most in this thread are just getting the phone
 
I just check with the local store, they are guessing it to be on 29th. I ordered verizon, but I wanted to see the actual product before mine gets shipped. :/
 
Anyone heard any updates as to when it should b in stores. I am gonna cancel my Verizon and go to sprint once this phone hits shelves.

I heard the 28th....

I also read an article that Samsung order a "Mass Production" which made me think they going to make it so fast.....those orientals going to work extra hours all tired....and may have some issues =/
 
to anyone that has theirs already, would they mind posting a video of how well the s4 handles the stock browser on some demanding websites? I cant find videos of the LTE s3 being put through tough browser tests. Or if anyone knows of any video please link it.

Probably because it would be slower than all hell to load running on 3G. Would have to be done over wifi.

I can't send video but its fine. I browsed some games and porn :D and its no better or worse than any other phone browsing. I prefer the Chrome Beta browser but that does not allow a lot of videos to play.
 
I can't wait for more S3 units to become available on Sprint... I hope I can order one next week. I'm torn between the Pebble Blue and Marble White. I was originally going to buy a white one, but I'm hearing the blue one is the way to go. Has anyone seen both colors side by side in person yet? Is the blue really that awesome looking?

BTW I'm very jealous of all of you who have gotten your phones already. LOL
 
It is sweet...I got the blue and I'm really happy with it...got it rooted and waiting for kernels to flash to help with battery life. It hasn't been bad but could always be better.
 
Any news on just regular orders? I ordered through our business account when they said they were launching on the 21st. I was told they were accepting orders (not pre-orders) but they don't yet even know when they can officially place the orders. This is for 2x of the 16GB models. The last time I checked Sprint's site, it still said no more pre-orders and not available. Surely they've got some kind of clue. Maybe I should just drive across town and knock on the door.

You probably wont here anything until they make an actual in-store launch date.
 
Until today I was only slightly annoyed and disappointed that I don’t yet have my 32GB phone. Now that I saw Costco selling the T-Mobile (16GB) version I’m really pissed that I don’t have it… They had 10 but were down to 2 when I stopped by at 1:30.

Your mad that t-mobile is selling a phone you did not order? T-mobile is such vendor using a different version of the s4 processor. It was easier for qualcomm to keep up with demand for that phone.

The 32GB might start shipping today most likely tomorrow! :) Store launch is Friday. Apparently I missed that yesterday. sorry guys.

Alex, the 32gb will be online for sales again as of this Friday perhaps or only the 16gb will be up for sale Friday in store? Glad to hear the preorders are finally going to ship out.

I don't mind waiting for the 32gb, I just want to be able to play with a live in store demo unit before I buy one. I'm still hung up on which color choice I want more than anything.

The 32 is available only available online not in stores. I do not know if they are taking new orders for 32gb on Friday or not. I would guess yes but not 100% sure.
 
That is a great question, no one on any websites came out and said they are in stock and this when we are shipping. The said the scheduled ship-date for the 32 is on Wednesday in preparation for the store launch on Friday and phones for the stores would start shipping on Wednesday.
 
Just talked to Samsung Customer Support. They told me that they apologize for the delay and are working diligently to get the phones ready and ship them out. When I asked when the shipping date would be she told me within a couple of wks. When I told her that was unacceptable and would like to speak to a supervisor in the manufacturing department she informed me that she does not have that phone number to give to me.

So what I gathered from this call was that myself along with the other 32gb preorders won't see our phones until sometime in July if we're lucky. Also that both Samsung and Sprint are two of the all time greats at giving their customers the run around.:mad::mad::mad::mad:
