Sorry for asking. Did i understood correctly, that T won't let you use 3G unless phone is purchased from them?

Tmo has a weird 3G frequency, and this phone's radio doesn't support it.

a nexus one is $530 and on contract there is a certain required plan that doesn't support family plans.

HTC desire and Tmobile
So if i understand it correctly,
Desire is NOT coming to T mobile for Sure ..
It will not work with T mobile frequencies, esp 3G network
which carrier will it work with ... better not AT&T
so basically no point of buying an unlocked phone then ..

It is rumored that AT&T will get the Desire. Wait it out until April-June. Also, if Telstra gets the Desire, AT&T customers can POSSIBLY import one and MAYBE catch 3G.
As far as "T" goes, I don't know if they will get the Desire since...well...there is the NX-1.
Either way, you will not be able to get 3G speed if you import the Desire. So if you want 3G, go with the Nexus. If not...go with the Desire

Does T-Mo UK have the same 3G frequencies and whatnot as T-Mo US? Because according to MoDaCo's webiste, T-Mo UK IS getting the Desire. So if T-Mo US doesn't, we could always import and throw in our sim cards :]

The UK Desire wont work on US TMo 3G. Its radio only does 2100/900 and 2100 is what TMo UK uses. TMo US uses the 1700 frequency. Ironic that the Nexus 1 radio does 1700/2100/900 so it works on TMo UK 3G.

[Q] will the uk galaxy nexus work fine on us tmobile?

I'm getting sickband tired of all these us delays for the phone. At this point I'm thinking of just purchasing the UK phone and importing it to the US. Is the UK version same as the unlocked phone I would buy here in the states eventually? I have tmobile and as far as I know all unlocked nexus phone are same? Is that true? Also, where can I buy online in UK that will ship to the US?

Nvm wrong forum.

They are the same. The phone is pentaband HSPA+. It'll get HSPA+ anywhere its available pretty much.

So to be clarify, the UK phone is basically same as unlocked nexus here and everything will work like 3g and 4g/hpsa+ here as well. What about updates. When Google pushes ota updates, will I get those same time as everyone else in states.

One nexus for all frequencies?
So, just to get a clear answer, will there only be one Galaxy Nexus to cover all GSM carriers, even for 3G?
I remember buying my Nexus One (which I'm still using) and I had to be careful to buy the correct variant so that I could use it back in Europe... only the T-Mobile variant would work.
My colleagues who have relocated to California have a few Android devices, including a couple of Nexus S, but since they purchased them in Europe they can't get 3G since the European Nexus S doesn't have AT&T's 3G frequencies, it would only work on T-mobile US.
I'm from Europe (but travelling for a couple of weeks in the US), so I was hoping to buy a couple of them to take home for myself and my girlfriend, but I don't see any sign of it being released for T-Mobile US, so I guess I'm going to have to fork out the outrageous money for one when I get home to the UK... £519 (= $820)

The Nexus One and Nexus S were quadband, meaning that they only worked on the specific carrier frequencies they were designed for. For that reason there were specific T-mobile US versions because T-mo uses 1700/2100 (AWS) for 3G rather than the 1900 standard many other carriers in the world use.
The Galaxy Nexus is pentaband HSPA+, meaning that there is one model that will work everywhere in the world. Yes even on 3G (or "4G" if the carrier calls HSPA+ that). You'll be able to buy the unlocked Galaxy Nexus in the UK and use it in the US on any of the GSM carriers here (AT&T, T-mo, Simple, regionals).

[Q] No sim...sim..Which nexus do i need for t-mobile?
I want to buy a Galaxy Nexus overseas but not sure what i need to use on t-mobile...Is the no sim mean no sim slot or what?

no sim just means that its not provided with a contract or a sim card for a carrier, instead its just the phone unlocked full price that you use with any carrier.
as for what you need just check the bands that the carrier use vs what the phone has the galaxy nexus is pentaband tho so it will most likely work with pretty much all carriers globally

"no SIM" just means it is contract/service free. You want that. It's just the phone, no strings.

I've been reading the last few comments and decided to speak up. First I want to say thank you, even though I didn't ask the questions myself, but the questions asked I had myself.
Now, I am a Sprint customer. Clearly no sign of this coming to us anytime soon if at all. I have a Nexus S 4G and I am aware it'll get the update soon enough, but I am wanting the Galaxy Nexus so bad that I am considering ordering the one released in the UK. Now I noticed the "sim free" or "no sim" means it is contract free. I assume I have to at least have some type of service with Magenta to even use it if I order it right? Also, let's say I already was a T-Mobile customer and I had a UK released Galaxy Nexus ported here in the US which comes SIM free, all I would have to do is put my SIM from my previous android phone (whatever that would be) inside the Galaxy Nexus and it would get service right? The phone itself would still be off contract right? The SIM is just for service so I can actually use it as a phone. And it all comes down to the consumers data plans, etc on how they can use it right?
I hope I wasn't confusing.
Thanks in advanced.

Yes, available with carriers today.
If you want a SIM-free handset (which by the looks of it, the OP does) then you will have to wait until next week at the earliest since the SIM-free stock has been delayed.

does anyone know where I can purchase the unlocked version so I can get it shipped to US asap

Unlock Verizon Nexus for T-Mobile?

So I'm thinking of buying a Verizon Galaxy Nexus.
I know it has a sim tray so i'm wondering if it can be unlocked for T-Mobile.
Any help would be appreciated.

Sim tray maybe but the vzw one is cdma and the GSM one is...well..GSM.
Different technologies! Not compatible.

I have the Verizon phone and yes it does have a SIM card but it uses different radios. Verizon uses CDMA/LTE and T-Mobile uses GSM so you can put whatever SIM card you want in there but since it uses different radios it won't physically be able to talk to T-Mobile (or any GSM carrier's towers)

btw, what happen if you travel away USA in a country without CDMA?.
At least, the CDMA iPhone have a simcard tray but it's locked until your operator wants.

Starting with Verizon's 4G LTE phones they all require SIM cards. They were also used in 3G global phones (my old blackberry and droid pro had them) but the CDMA Galaxy Nexus isn't global so you'd just SOL.

well.
nope. it won't work cause it's not CDMA...

@[email protected] can't believe people are asking this question. The phone has been out for over 3 months now.

Besides, the SIM card slot is specifically for LTE... as in, the SIM card is an LTE SIM card. LTE, not HSPA+.
I can only think, because the AT&T (HSPA+) model would be more prolific among sellers, that you'll have a better time finding a better price than a Verizon (LTE) one.

Then you have no service. Grab a cheap GSM phone and pre-paid SIM.

Try the yellow or the sky blue Galaxy Nexus. Those ones will work on both Verizon and T-Mobile.

Thats odd cause I have done it before

Back when verizon did both GSM and CDMA I had a verizon phone that I got to work on tmobile. I think it might have been a windows phone, honestly it was a while ago. I had to pay for a network unlock code and patch a radio or something....anyway, just wanted to say that it is in fact possible. My phone did brick in about two months, but that might have been from getting it wet...anyway...Good luck!

Total non sequitur. The phone in question must have been an old "world phone". The Verizon Galaxy Nexus never had any GSM radio whatsoever.

For the CDMA GNex you would need either a CDMA or neutral carrier/MVNO (such as StraightTalk, Tracfone, etc.). I have a CDMA ex-VZW GNex (now running Unlegacy-Android 7.1) that I am taking to Tracfone (replacing a Tracfone feature phone) because Tracfone uses a mix of carrier towers (depending on location, either T-Mobile or VZW). My current feature phone uses T-Mobile towers - because I am bringing a CDMA phone under BYOP, I have to ask the carrier (Tracfone, in this case) to create a custom SIM Kit for the brought phone, and thus have to communicate the IMEI and MEID of the incoming phone (this information is in the phone under Settings). Yes - this also applies to lifeline feature phones supplied by Tracfone/Safelink (if Safelink supplied the phone, Tracfone is your MVNO). If you want a GSM version of the Galaxy Nexus, you would want the maguro (the Galaxy Nexus in AT&T Mobility or T-Mobile guise); because GSM is more popular overseas, they tend to get exported compared to CDMA or W-CDMA (Verizon or Sprint, respectively).

[Q] HTC One X (international) on Simple Mobile / T Mobile?

I plan on buying the International version of the HTC One X pretty soon, like next week ish and I was wanted to know if anyone here can help me decipher all these weird codes and what not. I plan on switching to Simple Mobile when I get the phone and I wanted to know if anyone can give me an estimate of the speeds I would get on it. Apparently Sim. Mob. and T Mobile are sister companies so I think they use the same bands but I'm not really sure. I have been scouring the internet for days and if someone could just give me a simple answer I'd greatly appreciate it. If it helps, I live in Houston TX and on their website it says "Only phones with 1700/2100 AWS band work on our 3G network." and they have approved the HTC One S for customer use but not the HTC One X so idk if they have the same specs in regards to bands and speed. Like I said any help would be greatly appreciated. Please and thank you.

I have no experience with simple mobile but given it appears to be a t-mobile MVNO I will tell you about my t-mobile (US) experience.
The HTC one X international is NOT a good idea on t-mobile. I use t-mobile when I come into the US. The short version is that on the international HTC One X on t-mo data is unlikely to work at all. Here are the problems.
1. Sim type. T-mobile uses/sells a type of sim that electrically will not allow it to work with the international HTC one X for data. Edge, 3G, anything. http://androidforums.com/htc-one-x-xl/533805-new-t-mobile-sim-issues-unlocked-htc-one-x.html
2. Bands. The international one X does not support the 1700 band. Period. You will not be able to do 3G unless t-mobile cuts over its bands which they have done in a few markets but not many. If you could find the old style sim (non gba) as mentioned in point 1 you would be able to do edge (2G) only. Maybe Simple Mobile has non-gba sims but I doubt it.
I have had the standard t-mobile sim in my one X as recently as last week and it supports voice and texting just fine. data is a no go.
I have NOT tried this but people say that straight talk (AT&T MVNO) works.

I've used my International One X on T-Moble, the last time I did it was on Saturday when I visited Buffalo, NY (I'm from Canada).
emoose made some good points but I'll add my experience to his comments:
1. The default sim they provide did NOT work for data. The store I went to found an older sim which was meant for a Lumina (SP??) phone and it worked. The CSR told me I was very lucky as they don't normally stock these sims.
2. I was able to use 3G as they had coverage at the mall I was at but the CSR told me not to expect it elsewhere.
For me this works out great as I visit the US once every few months and at $2/day it's a steal even if I only have Edge, slow data is better than no data. If I were living in the US or if I were to visit more often then perhaps a Galaxy Nexus would be a better choice as I believe it works on all US GSM carriers (Anyone correct me if I'm wrong, I'm just from what I understand from the specs).

TMK, it should work. If memory serves, the Verizon HTC One is just a standard global HTC One with Verizon's customizations. Now, having said that, Verizon has been known to disable\completely remove\block the GSM functionality of global phones in the past when they release a version for their network(Droid Bionic, Droid RAZR, ect..) so it's entirely possible that, while the phone is physically capable of operating outside Verizon's network, that Verizon has blocked it from doing so.

You are correct. Verizon is required to have all global-capable phones unlocked out of the box. This is why the Verizon iPhone 5 was such a magnet for fraud.

I have a Verizon HTC One M8 and I have AT&T. I can get it to pick up service but for the life of me it will not pick up HSPA+ or 3G. So far I have only been able to get it running on Edge which obviously is unacceptable. Verizon phones can be such a pain in the ass. Anyone have any suggestions?

In all fairness you are asking about the HTC one m8 and this is a thread for the m7 so if you wanna try and get a real response you might want to check out the Verizon m8 forums not the m7. This subject has been been brought up before for the m7 and its not possible. The m8 on the other hand once again is a different phone. I know they have had success getting lte and all that working for our phone to T-Mobile.

It wasn't a witty response. Was a real actual question. I see so many threads of people buying Verizon phones and try to make them fully work on gsm networks. Just because it says global phone doesn't mean every part of the phone will work on gsm networks. So that's why I asked is the Verizon version cheaper than its gsm counterparts.

Yes, it works fine with HSPA+. For LTE, it could connect with LTE, but my situation is I can't make phone calls and text messages under LTE. Hope this would help.

The Verizon HTC One will work on any network, I can't speak for bands/speeds.
I'm in New Zealand, I brought my VZW One with me, works like a charm on all of their GSM networks here.
