For those looking for a spare battery in the states or one of those battery charging kits, the T-Mobile Galaxy S Blaze uses the same 1750 mah battery as our beloved Nexus! Just thought I'd share.

Nfc?

You know if the T989 battery is also compatible? 1850 mAh with NFC.
From what I can tell, it looks like it. I have a T989 battery, but don't get my phone till Monday. Will update.

It is not compatible. My wife has a white T989 and I have a GNex.

Well the nexus battery is smaller but the T989 is bigger and doesn't fit inside the GNex if I recall correctly. I'll have to double check when I get home.

Yeah that's why I would think it's compatible.
On the T989 forums they are all buying the extended nexus battery for the little extra mAh.
Hopefully it's compatible or i'd have a useless battery. lol
Sold my white t989 for a white nexus!

The T989 battery will fit the VERIZON galaxy nexus and vice versa. But it will not fit the GSM galaxy nexus.
@icashyy_ you should have stated it fits the VERIZON galaxy nexus which is what you have but since this thread is talking about the GSM GN you instead have confused some people and hopefully they have not made a purchase over your mistake. Please pay attention to thread titles.

Ahhhh disappointment lol
I already had the extra battery from the T989, lost it, but found it after I sold it.
Oh well. Thanks!
The Blaze does have NFC its identical to the Galaxy Nexus battery except it has a water indicator at the top.

Ah that makes sense, I didn't notice he had the LTE version. I was already doubting my testing with my wife's phone.

Does anyone know if the 2100Mah Galaxy Nexus battery will fit in the Blaze 4G?
I know that it fits the T989, but wanted to know for my T769, Blaze!

Since the 2100mah is a Verizon galaxy nexus battery then I don't think it will fit. The blaze is compatable with the GSM galaxy nexus and vice versa. The Verizon galaxy nexus uses a completely different battery.
This thread is a mess. Why are folks so sloppy? We are in the GSM GN forum. We should be talking about the GSM Galaxy Nexus phone and not confusing each other by only saying 'white' nexus or galaxy nexus.
Is this xda or what? Very sloppy. I came here wanting to find a quick replacement battery for my GSM Nexus but cannot trust the advice in this thread. And the main question is where is the moderation? That is why xda has really gone down and forums like RootzWiki have grown so much. The threads here are increasingly filled with confused misinformation on the one hand and flaming insults on the other (this thread isn't flaming only confused).
Hopefully things will improve.
Do the Blaze and the GSM Nexus use the same battery? YES or NO? Can someone definitively answer that question and no other questions in the effort of cleaning up this thread a bit??
When you are talking about battery size, be very clear about what version of the Galaxy Nexus you talk about. The GSM and CDMA versions have completely different batteries.

This forum is not exclusive to the GSM Galaxy Nexus. Both the GSM and CDMA variants are the intended subject matter of this forum.

Well seeing how the title says GSM and in the OP he states its the same 1750mah battery.... then I think he's talking about the GSM Galaxy Nexus.
He didn't say anything about Verizon. He just said the US T-Mobile Galaxy Blaze has the same 1750mah battery as the GSM Nexus. Makes sense.
Blaze = GSM Nexus

I currently have the HTC Amaze, and the development on the Amaze is at a very slow. I also am just ready to try something different than HTC, though I do like Sense.
I ordered the SG II yesterday, for around $200, but now I am wondering if I should have instead ordered the Galaxy Nexus at $400. The Galaxy Nexus is better in some ways I know, such as software, and maybe being updated more often, but the SG II is better in most hardware categories. I know the SG III will be coming in probably a few months or less, so do I really want to buy the Galaxy Nexus at $400. I will probably sale the Amaze for around $350 - $400. Hmmm, what to do? Please provide your input.

You're in galaxy nexus forums, most people will be bias but I honestly feel the Nexus is the superior device.

If you want lot of dev and low cost..just go for sgs2..make sure international I9100..right now have samsung based rom, aokp, aosp such oxygen cm9 and miui..im prefer checkrom for sgs2..
For gnex it will be a little high cost for about 400..
But there also many good rom such as Bugless beast CNA gummy liquid and many more..not bad either..
For kernel..sgs2 and gnex have so many awesome kernel dev
Sgs2: gokhanmoral hardcore entropy simmone
Gnex: ezekeel morfic franco fugu james bond
You will happy to flash everyday..
For me sgs2 and gnex ia almost the same for development..
But the choice is up to you..your money you call..

Thanks. Hmmm, decisions, decisions, decisions. Well what I ordered was not the international version of the SG II, it is the T-Mobile version. The international versions is probably upwards of $400 or beyond. In that case, I would go with the Galaxy Nexus, but since the T-Mobile version was around $200, that is about a $200 savings.
Ahhh, I don't know what to do.
Ok, my order for the SG II did not go through for whatever reason, so I can go either way now.
I am ready to go Galaxy Nexus, but the biggest concern to me is data speeds. I have gotten 18Mbps down on the Amaze? It supports the HSPA+ 42? Has anyone seen those speeds on the GSM Nexus?

Would you give your Galaxy Nexus away for a Galaxy S 3 if you had the chance to?
I want some honest opinions..

No.
Probably not, mainly because the European S3 won't get 3G on T-Mobile.

Nope!
Love my Pure Google Nexus...and the "possibility" of getting updates quicker than phones with carrier crap on them, I'll keep my Nexus; Thank You Very Much! LoL
Also, with the available ports of all the SGS3 apps...can't get any better than this!
Not a chance. Updates straight from Google and no capacitive / physical buttons are too good to pass up. Also, Paranoid Android isn't on the GSIII

If I do get it.. It would be with Vodafone Australia GSM no 4G. Although I love my Galaxy Nexus (too much) its starting to get outdated, spec wise.
Also, if I do get it.. I'll give the Nexus to my dad, so I can get it back whenever.. And I'd be able to upgrade in December just in time for the next Nexus.
I'm currently running the latest MIUI on my rooted Galaxy Nexus, so I'm not really into high levels of customization, And although I'm not a fan of the Galaxy S 3 design, I think they did a pretty good job software wise. And the fact that it's already been rooted before release gives it a bright start in the development field.
What do you guys think now?

No. I would for a CDMA/LTE Galaxy Note though. Go figure ...

Of course! I'd sell the S3, make profit, and buy a newer Nexus
Seriously, GNX is very fast, SUPER easy to flash/manage (My 9100G SGS2 is a nightmare), and STABLE!! Why switch???
I have the urge to try new phones.. In the past 6 months I've changed 5 phones.. But I loved the Galaxy Nexus the most...
I'm definitely going to get the next Nexus.. So why not try out the GS3 now?

Hi, I want to buy a new phone and I'm choosing between the Galaxy Nexus and S III. Which one do you recommend? I like how the Nexus looks, and getting updates first. I like the specs in the S III but I'm not a big fan of how it looks and I definitely don't like the TouchWiz UI. Where I live there is not much difference in price. What would you recommend? Thanks in advance!
What carrier?

S3 then sell it and buy a nexus and profit (if you are going on contract) i actually had achance to test the s3 and on 4.0.4 it seemed pretty descent ... you could go with the s3 for sure either phone will get huge amount of support and i guess s3 is more future proof on specs so up to you
If on Verizon get the Gnex. If on any other carrier the S3.

Well only one has the new Jelly Bean.....
That was my reasoning. By the time the s3 gets jelly bean Google will have a new nexus device out with an update. If I was Verizon I would not be happy with googles timing of jellybeans release. Especially with them collaborating on the nexus

Get sgs3 since it is better hardware than nexus. You can change the software but not hardware.
Flash CM10 on sgs3 and you should be good.
I have a galaxy nexus because I bought the unlocked gsm for $350 which is a good deal and use it as a secondary phone

absolutely nothing is stable like stock, especially on phones which don't come with aosp natively ( i.e everything except nexus).

Hey everyone, I'm new to the forum and just bought myself a T-Mobile s2 to replace a Verizon galaxy nexus. I'll be switching to a prepaid plan. Any who, I don't know if anyone else knew this yet, but I have a Samsung extended battery for my gnex and tried it in the s2 to see if it would work. Sure enough it fits like a glove and the stock door works perfectly with it! Just a heads up for anyone who has thought of it trying it
