Alright this is more of the questions for the AT&T network not really the Samsung Infuse. Anyway, I want to upgrade my phone later on I will get the Galaxy Note 2 . Now, I'd like to upgrade but my parents do not want to allow it. I do however, have a store near me. Couldn't I just go to the store with my phone number or do I need any other information to help me upgrade ? Any advice is helpful thank you. I should probably also say that I don't have an upgrade available both my parents do, but i think i could use one of theirs. Im under 18, would that stop me either? (I got my tablet from walmart lol, i was fine on that.)

I believe they will require authorization from the one in charge of the account (one of your parents I suppose).
And not so sure about the upgrades, but I believe each one is specific to a phone line.

Is your present phone a 4g? If it is, you can go on line with ATT and upgrade one of your parents phones. When the phone arrives, all you have to do is switch out your sim card.....all your number info and all that stuff is on the sim card.
If you go into the store and you are not the account holder, they won't even talk to you.

I'm thinking this is a great way to get yourself into hot water pretty quick.
A better idea would be to work out something with your parents.
Try this link
Upgrading will extend your parent's contract another 2 years.
I'm sure they'll definitely notice that.
To qkster, I'll try again lol when the time comes. I've got a lot of money that I've earned/gotten, and they won't let me use any of it! It sits there (in a safe place, easily access able to me), finally gave up and spent some of it on my tab 2. I love that, and my phone but the gnote 2 could make things a lot easier, use less devices.

I'm sure they would not know, my mom lost a 7 year old flip phone with no plan to get her another soon, and my dad has a 5 year old flip phone too. They do not care about tech. At all, I'm lucky to have a decent laptop to do heavy hw, I use my tab and phone for the quick typing/notes. It seems for me to work well, and no matter what I do they think its terrible (because they can't figure it out! Haha)

You'll need your parents information. Most important is the last four of the social security number for the account holder

Likely that since your parents are not tech savvy you can log into the att online portal using a username and password combo that they would normally use. From there you can add yourself as an authorized user and go into a store and wreak havoc. But honesty is the best policy.

And just think, if something were to happen and they had to switch off of at&t or wanted to go somewhere else for service it would require them to pay roughly 800 bucks to terminate the contract. Not to mention the mandatory data charge for upgrading to a smart phone. They'd probably notice the extra 15 to 30 bucks a month.
As a parent myself who until this question thought I was still 'cool' (I'm slowly turning into a grumpy old man and its pissing me off) I'd most likely kill my kids of they tried what you are asking.

I am already seeing the S3 on Craiglist for under $400.00, the Note will probably be more. But you wouldn't have to screw with your parents account.

INFUSE no longer carried by ATT - shortest duration on record. IMHO still the best phone in active use (after 4000 mah battery upgrade, 2.3 upgrade etc)
Wow I hope this isn't true

I don't see why they would just drop a phone. How about a link for proof...
Umm....
I was at the store today and it was still being sold, and their website still sells the Infuse.
As long as the Captivate is sold, the Infuse will be sold for sure.
http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-ph...vice=Samsung+Infuse+(TM)+4G*&q_sku=sku5190290
It is still for sale right now.
I don't know what makes you think they stopped carrying it. There is another thread that provides evidence that the Infuse is their best selling android phone.

i was like dam not even then HTC Status.
still being sold no word if its being dropped OP's topic needs changed
( i work part time at a att store and we have not seen anything on this)
When I went in yesterday my local store no longer had the Infuse. No display so I asked and he said they didn't have any and didn't believe they were getting any more.
With a ton of newer phones coming out it wouldn't surprise me if they took down the display.
They're just making room for the new phones. They will probably put a gutted shell on the wall of shame ($99 and under). It is sad that I'm already looking to upgrade to the Skyrocket less than 6 months after buying the Infuse, but it's become painfully obvious that AT&T blew their load on the Infuse's face and didn't call the next day. It's already outdated and they are in no longer rushing to get GB out. Which also means ICS will never happen. The Skyrocket will drop from $249 to $149 in a month or two. Woo hoo...afternoon delight!
It's history, removed from shelves throughout SE and other heavy markets. Excess stock went to distribution. As soon as refurbished stock is exhausted website avail will follow. If you want proof, wait a few days and call your contact at your fav att store.
Look, we've still got the best phone produced. It had to be pushed aside eventually - Samsung alone will introduce about 10 new phones before eoy

Maybe two different players. Samsung is developing roms and in the meantime att decides to stop carrying. Purely speculation. I don't think they have a captivate on our store shelves but I think it is still online as well?
What people don't get is these could be authorized retailers. They're just stores that have permission to sell phones under the Att logo. If it doesn't sell well for them, goodbye. I worked at one for months.

I would guess a lot of people (on XDA, especially) understand the difference between a corporate store and an authorized retailer, but I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt.

That could be true. However, att stores will not replenish stock, and when the refurbs are gone from the att web store that's it.
Hey all just to be clear first off this is not a discussing to bash me or my wife for her wanting to go to an iphone. She has decided it I have a trade set up with someone for a 32gig s4 and its done so please no bashing me or her lol!!!
Anyway! Her phone has synergy 1.3/lmo kernel 12-2. We are meeting the person at a verizon store so we can swap and activate the phones in confidence. I want to return hers to stock. I have the stock bloated zip downloaded and will do it via odin. My question is should I worry about the flash counter taking it to the verizon store to do this swap? They can't deny me a swap for it being flashed can they? Just reload stock ics and go with it?
They can't see the flash counter. Unless they go into download mode to look for itm . It won't b a problem The swap take two minutes . Youre all good!

Anyway, you can also look up the free triangle away on XDA. It costs 2 bucks on Play Store, but XDA members can get it for nothing. That will erase the flash counter to zero.

this is true also...
the people in verizon just want to get a sim into the phone to get you out of there.
if you arent buying something they just want you out so the can get back to selling
Yep not gonna worry about it. On another note I just tried going back to stock on her phone via odin. Downloaded one of the stock fully bloated ics roms...followed the directions and the odin never said pass/reset. It just sat there after it took 2mins 37 secs. I battery pulled unplugged and rebooted to recovery and it rebooted to cwm recovery. I reboot phone from there and it booted back to synergy and the kernel. any suggestions? Just try again? I dont want to brick this damn thing trying to trade it tomorrow lol
I'm sorry but I'm not biting my tongue. That is a horrible trade....you're giving up the latest technology for a phone that's almost a year old and only has 3G speeds. What your wife should do is throw the S3 up for sale on ebay for $500 now, use another phone for a few months and then buy the iphone 5 when it comes out in November.

Yeah, it didn't upload the ROM to the phone correctly. Make sure you're using 3.07 Odin also to flash the full .tar file and you're putting in the PDA slot in Odin.

Its really none of your business.
Try switching usb ports also, my front ones are kind of flaky with odin, as are my rear usb3 ones...the back usb2 however works fantastic and has never given me a problem. Just remember some people it takes 1 minute flat, and others it takes 10 minutes.
I finally got it thanks guys
I've been using Odin 1.85. The 3 version has been fishy for me. Also. If you have root 66 or something just use it. An apple person isn't going to check or know anything about 1 icon that says superuser. Also restart your computer. It helps sometimes

Being nice here, but has she used the smaller screen on the iphone extensively?
After setting my wife is with an HTC inspire she thought she wanted an iphone 4s too until she used one in store and decided the screen is too small.
Point is, she's making a huge downgrade. Maybe have her use it for 10 minutes in store before the person getting the s3 makes off like a bandit

My wife, the iphone fangirl to the bone, hated the Nexus and Razr Maxx and spent less than 5 mins to come up with that conclusion. Then while she's waiting for the iPhone 4S replacement from verizon, she saw the S3 from their store and was won over instantly. We're both using the same phone and while i cried over losing the Note when we switched carrier, this is truly the one that resembles it the closest. To each his/her own but this phone makes iphone lovers drool.

Why are you sad?
Unused ram is not necessarily a good thing.
Unused ram = wasted ram
No, I called T-Mobile and they would not/cannot unblock it. Its frustrating how they think its right. They charged the original owner the full price and then they destroy the phone. If then they compare it to repossession of a car. Yeah, except that car is still in circulation and fully working and they don't take then take the remaining money. T-mobile are idiots if they think that analogy is right. If they are going to charge the full price then that person should own it.
Ok I've been see this a couple time and I'm kinda tired of people being mad at T-Mobile for people trying to save money from a non-T-mobile source and the phone don't work. That lady either one did not pay off her equipment installment plan(so she did not own it) or she did a fault claim saying she lost the phone or just never sent the phone back on a warranty claim. If a person buys a phone straight out T-mobile will not block the imei number unless the phone is reported stolen and the owner makes them block the imei. I have friends that work at T-mobile. It is no different than Verizon or Sprint phones that are report lost or stolen now.

CovXX, dont worry...its not just you. I came from a Gnex then got upgraded for free to this phone. I had to get 23 replacements in less than 2 months. More than half didn't even turn on out of the box. After the 4th replacement, I opened the phone at a Verizon store itself so that they knew I wasn't lying. After that many, I tried a different store, and they offered to give me a GS3 for no cost and no contract extension. Awesome right? In my experience the replacements are pure crap. I think they just get other people's phones, and send them right back out again. One even had someones contacts on them...its a bit maddening.

Really? Because I swear you were claiming reception issues in the thread when everyone was trying for Note 2s.
OP, it took me two replacements before I was offered alternate replacements. If that's what you want, just ask for it. The antenna in the sg3 is sub optimal in certain circumstances, it's more than likely not something you can fix with a replacement sg3.
I went through 4 gnexii before I demanded a different phone and got the s3. Used that for an hour before the screen backlight basically died and refused to come on. 2nd s3 seems to be doing good so far.

I'm on my 4th replacement for my s3. I was told and noted in my account that one of the tech2 supervisor that I was approved for a Razr Maxx HD. So, all I was waiting for was my replacements to get back to Verizon. Called back up about week later, one of them came in. The customer service rep then transfered me to tier 2 tech. Then, it all just went downhill from there. He is saying, that his supervisor can't approve me for my razr Maxx HD which I was already approved for by someone else. I called back the next day and it's the same thing. So, I just gave up. The only issue I am having with my s3 is the wifi. If my s3 is connected to my wifi it will sometimes take down my whole wifi network. And what's also strange is that whenever the phone is idle and I go to pick up the phone and use the Internet on my wifi while it's connected. It takes the phone 30secs-1min for me to connect to the Internet. It's not my router cause I never had any issues with any of my other phones that I previously had.
All I can say is good luck on them trying to get you to switch to another phone. They wanted to offer me a gnex or Rezound as a replacement for this s3. Like Verizon wanted me to downgrade my phone. Screw them.

I just wanted to post this for all of you considering getting a new phone on AT&T, such as the One, S4, Blackberry, etc. According to what I have read, it looks like AT&T is starting a promotion tomorrow that will give an instant $100 or more credit toward a new phone of your choice when you trade in your old working smart phone, ( 3 years old or less). This may help in the decision making process for many people.

I'm starting to hate AT&T even more. I recently tried to get an early upgrade (60 days away) & was turned down over the phone. It really pissed me off since I've been a long time customer in good standing. Pissed me off so much, I've been considering going to TMO & now they do this to me. Hopefully this last for more than 30 days since they won't budge unless im within 30 days or less.
Can you trade in a rooted and unlocked phone that has been flashed?
I want the S4 pretty badly and I want to trade in my 1 year old HTC One X but I unlocked, rooted and flashed this thing.

does anyone know how extensively they check the phone at the store? My phone works perfectly except that for some reason I can't get any service on it. I've tried fixing and troubleshooting for a while but have given up so I'm looking to get back some money for it. So does anyone know if they will check the phone for reception?

I removed the sim from mine and it was at the setup screen (touch the android) and that was it. It was only checked to be sure it would power on and nothing further.

Thanks for the quick responses, I really appreciate it and am glad I'll be able to at least get something for it. Thanks again
Do i need to revert to stock to trade in?
What if I have CM10 running on my GS2? Honestly, they should give me more money for that (because it is more than functional)

I wouldn't think its necessary based on my experience this morning. They just checked to see if it lit up when turned on.
Does anyone know if they would accept a CDMA version of iPhone 4?? I have one sitting around collecting dust. Great condition.

They check the imei/serial number on them. You can check on the website and see if it will work.
