ATT Samsung Galaxy Note 2 - Refurbished $0.99 *2-Year Contract Needed for this Price*

Quote from hp79 : I'm with you. Nice job. People posting these cellular deals should always include "with 2 year contract" in the title even though this might be obvious for lots of people. Anyways, looks like a nice deal. I'm looking to upgrade (w/2yr contract extension) my current Note 1 (N7000) because I can feel how laggy it can become even after JelleyBean update. I'm actually waiting for the HTC One coming out later this month. Performance of general UI and camera quality/snappiness is what I'm looking for, which iPhone 4S does really well, but iOS is just too boring.

How did you update to Jelly Bean with Galaxy Note N7000? Mine is currently 4.0.3 which suck and really hate Samsung for their lack of update and cheap part.

in before and after

"omgwer how dareeee you not puttt 2 years contractttttttt in omgergw misleading me into thinking the phone only costs .99 cents omomgere i am a tard"

The Note 2 smashes the iPhone troll. If you like being told what is good and like having no real choices, you must be happy with it.

Is it possible to just get a 2 year plan without the data plan and only texting?

Jelly Bean for Note 1 (international version):
Download from www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
search for n7000, and you'll be able to download a German version rom with (N7000XXLSZ).

You can flash it with Odin from your PC in Windows. I wiped my phone before doing anything.

I tried Note2 in att store, and it was very nice indeed, but seeing the benchmarks for HTC One's Krait quad core (A15 variant), and the camera really swayed me over. Also, my Note 1 has some micro cracks on the cheap plastic [xda-developers.com], so I'd like to stay away from plastic if possible.

How's the condition of refurbished phone from ATT? should I get protection plan?

I can unlock, pm if needed

Awesome been waiting on a note 2 deal. Got one..

BTW people UPGRADES do so work. I just did it!

I was eligible for an upgrade with ATT and just did this on the grey Note ll and it went through fine. I've been waiting for a price drop on this phone and it just hasn't come, so decided to take a chance on the refurb. I'm a little wary about glitches, but I'm guessing a lot of these were returns in the first 30 days and may have not necessarily had issues. Has anyone ever gotten a refurb at ATT and what was experience? I couldn't find anything with respect to terms of the refurb, if I have the same ability to exchange it within the first 30 days like new phones.

Quote from rkboid : for the challenged yes a 2 year contract is needed for the pricing

I ordered one as an upgrade so not just for new people also do those able to do a 100% 2yr upgrade

how badly does doing an early termination affect your credit score?

Quote from hyogen : how badly does doing an early termination affect your credit score?

It won't affect it at all as long as you pay the early termination fee. Now if you're suggesting terminating and not paying the fee, then it would probably eventually result in a collection account on your credit which would not be good.

If you are thinking about ETF, then you have to ask yourself is it worth it. If you do a ETF, can you sell the phone and make up most of, if not all, of the ETF?
