Is it possible to buy Samsung Captivate without countract?

Hello, I am going to visit the US in August and I would really like to buy Samsung Captivate, but not the Samsung Galaxy S (I really hate its iPhone style design)
Is it possible for a foreigner to buy Captivate (and unlock it) and use it with my own sim card here in Russia?
just found this instruction - http://ddd.in.com/videos/watchvideo...ngular-att-free-network-sim-code-8507521.html
does it work?
As for non-contract? yes! It will be $350 in any AT&T store.
As for unlocking it, i'm not sure.
so I can just come and buy it in AT&T store without showing some documents like I am a citizan of the US? and btw the price is very low, comparing with its price here in Moscow - $1000
Then, I need just to unlock it for any sim card?

LoL! Yes dude, you can buy it. The only citizenship doecuments you need are US Dollars!
Thanks, dudes, you really helped me)
It's really promising)
The design of Samsung Galaxy S really suks and the Captivate one is awesome
dark, just in case you didn't already know, as of now unlocks aren't available, but it's highly likely that they will be soon. This means that you wont be able to use your phone right away when you get back to the mother land.
On the other hand if you hang in there, by the time unlocks come out, there will be plenty of guides on how to make this phone look as little as the ios as possible. Not to mention alot more online support for it.
Just wanted to make sure you didn't get back home to a huge disappointment .
Good point. I just assumed he was aware of that. As quickly as this thing is gaining momentum, I doubt you'd have to wait long before it's unlocked.
Well, just read the review on one web-site and there was a phrase:
AT&T won't let you sideload apps.
I am confused, does it mean that there is no android market???????????
I saw a video - how to unlock Samsung Captivate - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dlxc6AJaAys
Does it work?
So if it's fake, I am planning to stay in the US until the end of August, are there any chances for the unlock to reveal?
There is a market, but you can't put stuff on there that isn't from the market.
With AT&T, the only thing can be installed is stuff from the market.
Do you mean that it's just not possible to put .apk files in the phone?
Well, in this case I am OK with Android Market
crap, just read in another review, that there is an AT&T Market - this totally sucks!
So, it is different from Android Market?
Or there are two markets there?

Yup thats pretty much the case, so if you do not mind it, you are good to go. I would not worry too much about an unlock as this phone is spreading faster than fire through the community and should be unlockable pretty soon.
That I have no idea about. I have never owned an Android phone so I only go by what I have read.
but as of this weekend, I will own one!
Maybe root will help us to install 3-rd party apps?
Guys, please post additional info about unlock , when some new information reveals.
I am really interested in this phone.
And can someone check if it is possible to choose Russian locale? I mean transforming the interface to the Russian one
Here is an unlock instruction http://hyfeno.com/unlocked-samsung-i897-captivate/
it seems like it should work
btw please advise me the cheapest US 3g network I am planning to travel in many states of the USA for a month...

You should try asking AT&T for the unlock when you purchase it from them. They should be able to provide you with one free of charge since you are paying for the phone outright!
After paying 6 bucks, this is the reply I got from their site.
Hi,
unfortunately your code wasn't found in our database, would you have another phone you like to unlock?

AND it's not a free unlock code.

well, may be you misspelled the code?
if it finally works, it's better to pay these 6 bucks, than paying $1000 for the ugly version of Galaxy S here in Russia
The non contract price I was just quoted from the ATT store were I purchased my phone said the the price off contract was 499.00
I was going to buy this phone for 350.00 but 500.00 is a little steep.
so is it $350 or $500?
I heard that $500 is just for t-mobile version
I was going to go over there to exchange it and buy it out right. Look at the prices of the galaxy s line on ebay,500$ sounds about right.
500$ is what I was told from a corporate ATT store.

[Q] ThinkPad Tablet -- The business-class Android tablet. Can it be rooted?

I am interested in people's opinions about whether this tablet will get rooted. Everything else about it is perfect. If it can be rooted, I'm buying it.
Can we get an Xda forum for the Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet?
I'm also interested in buying it but waiting to see what xda developers think in comparison to the Transformer. Could we get a forum for it?

I chatted with a Lenovo agent today. He checked into this for me and confirmed that the bootloader is not locked.
Here's the conversation:
Please wait while we connect with you with a Lenovo Chat Representative.
You have been connected to _Ryan.
_Ryan: Thank you for choosing Lenovo chat. My name is Ryan XXXXXXXXX and my ID is XXX. What may I help you with today?
Me: I am interested in a Thinkpad Tablet...
Me: Is the bootloader unlocked?
_Ryan: one moment
_Ryan: I am sorry I do not have the specs for that
Me: I read on a forum that it is unlocked, but I want to confirm that before ordering. How can I confirm it?
_Ryan: one moment
_Ryan: it is unlocked
_Ryan: just confirmed
Me: oh, great. With that information I don't have to worry about potentially having to return it and pay the restocking fee.
_Ryan: yes, it is unlocked so you're good
_Ryan: If you are placing an order online, please attach my Rep ID: XXX in the designated area at checkout near where you enter your credit card information. This will allow me to help manage your order from my end and expedite this through manufacturing.
_Ryan: adding my Rep ID: XXX will allow me to ensure your order is shipped in time and I can give you updates on your order status
Me: thanks - i'll use your agent code since you answered my question. I appreciate that!
Since this rep confirmed the unlocked bootloader for me, should I paste his ID here?
All of us who are concerned about the unlocked bootloader could use his agent ID when ordering and give him a little unexpected boost.
I chatted with several other agents who could not and would not answer the question for me, so I appreciate that this agent took the time and effort to confirm it.
I'd like to see a forum for it as well. Very interested in it.

Root would be wonderful!!!
My Thinkpad Tablet is arriving today as well! Can't wait to get off work and try it out...
All the early adopters need to get posting on XDA, so that this tablet is embraced and some work can get started on rooting it!
I'd love to see this rooted.
I'd also like to see (like most Tegra 2 tablets) a working Skype with video and Hulu.

I got mine on Thursday 9/8. Having some fun tinkering around with it. Sadly, the pen and keyboard folio are being shipped at a later date (ordered from macconnection.com, they were about $50 cheaper than directly from Lenovo), so I haven't gotten the parts that made me choose this tablet over the many others out there.
Can't wait for root, though!

Not sure what model you ordered but I got the 64GB one from pcconnection and it came with the pen. Glad I canceled my Lenovo order and ordered from PCC...Lenovo kept pushing back the ship date. From PCC I got the tablet the next day after ordering and it was about $100 less than Lenovo since there was no tax and it came with the pen.
according to the lenovo shop where i got the tablet from, the pen is in cluded in all 32/64 GB models, only the 16GB models come without the pen.
have mine now since 1 week and i'm very happy with it! hope that an own forum will appear soon so the dev on this nice piece of hardware can start ;-)
I would also like to see this rooted! Really liking it so far!
+1 on dedicated forum and root request, this would make the tablet even better. I have to be able to titanium backup restore my angry birds .

Ah, yeah, I got the 16GB model, didn't really need more storage than that (and if I did, I could just pop in an SDHC card). Wasn't aware that the higher capacity models were bundled with the pen! I suppose that would explain the price differences a bit.
Looks like PCConnection and MacConnection are the same business, but it was just that MacConnection was what came up in my shopping search. It's interesting how much cheaper they were than directly from Lenovo, heh.

Fruitsphone 4s

Here It is. Lets use this thread to post every information we have concerning this phone:
For the time being there is only one known official online seller :http://fruitsphone.taobao.com/ . Problem is this is only in chinese.
So all international sellers have to deal direct with fruitsphone.com on their gmail to make purchases. But again only payment method accepted is Western Union which is obviously risky.
Some of us have bought through Fastcardtech.com which is not an official reseller. But they have probably bought the product from taobao and are reselling.
Have ordered one for a friend from them . Should get it in 1 weeks time.
I am keen to try and get another one ( for myself) direct from fruitsphone but have asked for more specifications from them as they seem to have the 16g ones as well.
Unboxing of fruitsphone 4s on youtube:
http://youtu.be/BW7ZmwxnBxg
Was told in an email sent at 5pm (chinese time) that my phone was sent today... Now the time is midnight in China and still my order says "unshipped" on their website.. hoping tomorrow (It's 6pm local time) .. and they advertise for "your honest pal".. we'll see about that..

I think they got people to process their order follow up during the night . They sent me an email at 1 am yesterday regarding my shipping address and since then nothing else
Ah.. thanx for info

Fastcardtech just emailed me 5 mins ago to tell me they will have to refund me as I am asking them to ship to different address than my paypal address/ They want me to change my paypal address and re order.
I think i ll just go ahead and buy from fruitsphone through western union

Really nice! i like the GooApple V5 3G, but is a litte overpriced.
Also i see that they are not so far with the IOS rom that they have build in the "NEDERLANDS" -> Dutch language.
So i think to wait when they made this working.
Possible that the fruitsphone will be faster to made this possible.

Jesus Christ.. They've had plenty of time to check it.. I've not heard anything from them yet. When the refund make sure they also refund the 4.5% taken by PayPal..
BTW when you then get a phone directly from fruitsphone we can compare them..
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
thanks I will check. Am sure that in the transaction I will be losing somehow anyway as my bank must be charging me its fees for the credit card attached to paypal...grrr
I will post the pics of the fone when I get it. Fruitsphone.com seems to be serious enough on their website . lets hope I get something from them for my money..lol
Status for mine is now "shipped"
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
Great . For my part am still struggling with my order. They cancelled the first one and are supposed to credit back my paypal within 24 hrs.
Once this is done I will order through them again as the option through Wertern Union is not interesting . WU charges 35 USD commission !
From what I read
there are two version of fruitsphone 4s
public version and retail version
Difference is the screen
Google translate does not translate well the taobao page.
Maybe its me and my antique pc
Hope to hear your reviews.
Thanks for the new thread....
Yeah its very difficult to navigate on the fruitsphone.com or Taobao. But what I found was that they are actually selling it at a higher price to the chinese market . The going rate for the 8 g on Toabao is Usd 240 and Usd 260 for the 16 g.
Thats higher than the Gooapple v5 3g.
Strange that fastcardtech does not have the 16g version. But I guess we will find out that its very easy to change the micro sd.
I have just bought a 16gb card class 6 at app. $20. Just need to buy the screwdriver when I get the phone.. Will do a unboxing video for sure..
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
Fastech has 2 fruitsphone but both are 3G and they
have different screen resolution.
Was it easy to order thru Fruitsphone.com??
I tried but the site wanted a phone number and I could not go beyond that.
Tried to google their ROM,but no such luck....
Thanks for the forum.... and the ROM in future )
Perso I have given up trying to order from Fruitsphone. While they seem to be a relatively serious company , their english comms is very poor and they only accept Western Union and the later charges almost 15% commission.
So I have reverted back to ordering from Fastcardtech. Will see what comes out of it.
To be able to download the root tools and rom package from fruitphone you have to insert yout imei in the forum to be awarded a vip status. Am registered on their forum but without a working imei , I cant proceed.
I guess it would be easier that the first one of us getting the phone to complete registration, get the roms and tools and post them here.
Am not due to get it before next week - status still unshipped with ''our honest pal'' at fastcardtech!!!
Mine is shipped (confirmed on mail from them) I've go tracking number but can't find any trace.. I did write them before I ordered, after my order was placed, before shipping and after shipping each time to make sure they did what they had to.. have a transcription in my mail.. still waiting for first step on route to be traceable.

I have heard similar stories, this is great news for those of us who aren't willing or can't spend $600 on a developer edition phone. I wonder how "soon" soon is ;-)

I'm confused about: will they or won't they unlock it? I hope it's true...
Though some chats are very specific to the meaning behind unlock, I can't help but think that this means GSM unlock.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
Obviously I hope it's true but I severely doubt it. I mean, how often do low level customer service reps know info like that before we do? Out of the 6 people I talked to at vzw none even knew the phone was shipped early for pre orders...
Hopefully it's not a way to trick the masses into upgrading to block the way we get root now.

This is what I'm thinking as they've been mentioning that specific unlock for some time as part of an early OTA update. I hope it's the bootloader that's really being discussed but I certainly have my doubts.

Well, I don't believe it either, but there might be some light at the end of the tunnel. I went into chat and asked. I encourage as many people to do this just so verizon may realize there's a huge interest for it. To do this, just go to the verizon page and pretend you're buying the SIII. There's a button that says 'chat with rep', or just wait there for a minute and you will get a popup.
Here's my transcript... If you don't believe me, go do it yourself!
Please hold for a Verizon Wireless sales representative to assist you with your order. Thank you for your patience.
You are now chatting with 'Alesha'
Mike: Hi! I'm interested in the S III but don't like it having the locked bootloader. Will Verizon release an update to unlock the bootloader?
Alesha: Hello. Thank you for visiting our chat service. May I help you with your order today?
Alesha: ?
Alesha: Yes
Mike: This isn't the GSM unlocker so you can use the phone wherever in the world, this is to unlock the bootloader to allow for developers, correct?
Alesha: Right
Mike: and is there an ETA on this?
Alesha: No information released
Mike: OK, well, thank you very much for the information!
Don't believe these Verizon reps for a second. Many of them can't think for themselves and only regurgitate what the higher ups tell them. I worked in their call center last year and most of my co-workers had no idea what rooting, roms, bootloaders, etc. were.
NOT happening.
http://www.droid-life.com/2012/07/1...re-update-to-unlock-the-galaxy-s3-bootloader/
Not very optimistic:
Dear Alexander,
Thank you for taking the time to email in with regards to the Samsung Galaxy SIII. Alexander, my name is Nick. I hear you with regards to the locked bootloader situation. I too was hoping we would follow suit. Currently we will be offering the developers version of the SIII, which comes with a unlocked bootloader for our customers. I do hope that we make a change to the current model that is out, and that we unlock the bootloader, but currently there are no plans to do so. At the very least I hope that we at least consider selling the unlocked version in a subsidized manner with a contract, as opposed to selling it full retail through Samsung.
Your voices are being heard, and I hope we truly consider some other options for our customers in the development community. In the meantime, really, the only other option I can recommend is to maybe sell your SIII. I am sure you can find someone who may not be interested in the unlocked version, but would like to upgrade to that phone and not be under contract. Remember the 16 GB model starts at $599.99. Depending how much you paid, I would charge as much as possible for the phone since they are coming out on top without the contract, and use the money you get towards the unlocked version. It may not be ideal, but at least there are some options for now.
Thank you for being the best part of Verizon Wireless, Alexander. Take care and have a great week.
Sincerely,
Nick
Verizon Wireless

Can't believe he told you to sell the device.
Yea, that was like a wtf moment. What I interpreted it as was "Buy device for $200, try to gamble it off for at least $400. Then go shell out another $200 and purchase the developer edition."
Not only does that void any chance of insurance but I would purchase the phone unsubsidized if I wanted a "Developer's Phone".
This is a new corporate low even their employees don't like their actions. I work for Apple, we would never tell our customers to do something like that.
EDIT: Just to clarify, no I am not an apple fanboy... I do not own an apple product. Not even an iPod. It's just my job to represent them.

Also I have my 2 cents to share. First of all the site is wrongly formatted for the left half of the screen and doesnt auto size to fit your screen CENTERED. Thats Strike 1 for False-ness.
Strike 2 is that WHY DO YOU HAVE TO TRACK YOUR ORDER WHEN YOUR JUST BUYING AN UNLOCK CODE?
Strike 2.5 if they mail the unlock code on a piece of paper to your address, that is even more suspicious. There is no need to mail it to you by postal service and its much faster and cheaper through email.
Strike 3 is that I don't see this site in any trusted reviews. If there are very little then they must be absolutely faked.
Strike 4 is that their motto is North American Unlock Specialists. Is that even a valid position to be a specialist in? 99.99999 / 133337% fake. It doesnt make any sense at all.
Strike 5 is their copyright display : " © UnlockCodeWarehouse 2009 " what?!? if their site was last updated 2009 then why do they support a 2013 phone? Makes even less sense. If you check their logo at the top it clearly says ALWAYS FIRST WITH NEW MODELS. NEW WITH 2009 COPYRIGHT?
Strike 6 ( The Final Strike ) is their disclaimer

Basically their disclaimer says that when you press "Purchase", your agreeing that they are not responsible for anything they do to you after. If they dont give you any code to unlock they are not responsible. Meaning you sorta agreed to get scammed. Ouch
Im really sorry for your loss. I also did get scammed as well some year or 2 ago in a game
EDIT: I found my last strike. If you go to their terms and conditions in the full page I noticed this one detail:
If you have any questions/comments about privacy, please do not hesitate to contact us using the address below

However if you check the few lines under it there is no contact method, and if you scroll to the bottom of the page, NO CONTACT METHOD AT ALL. That detail alone ends this entire case as a 100% S.C.A.M.
