The title says it. I'm planning on buying a Verizon Galaxy Nexus but I need to know if it will work in India. And if the data will also work. Any help will be appreciated, thanks.

No & no
What Ur doing is like trying to make a pound of ice last for an hour in desert on it's own.
Would be neat though.

If I have helped you.... hit that sexy thanks button. ^_^
You may be able to flash it to a CDMA carrier in india. I seen someone roam in India with a Verizon gnex, so I'm pretty sure it works. Someone had also flashed a sprint gnex to a India CDMA carrier.
Now I have no idea how these flashing stuff works.
Will the next nexus have a longer screen?

Hi I want to buy new phone and I've decided that it will be Samsung galaxy epic.
I leave in Europe and the phone is not available here.
I've found an interesting announcement on ebay. But there is written that the phone is flashed to cricket. I do not know what cricket is.
If I buy it I will be able to reflash it and use it in Europe?
I'm new to Android devices. Please help.
No, Europe is GSM (uses SIM cards) the Samsung EPIC (and any other Sprint/Verizon Phone) does not use a SIM card.
thanks a lot for your answer.
So I can't use Epic in Europe ?

That's pretty much exactly what I said...
NO.
ONLY phone you can get is a device with GSM in it. The EPIC is CDMA.
IF you dont need a keyboard and can unlock it try the Vibrant or Captivate.
hello all..
i searched as much as i could around the forums and google before positing this question.
i want to change providers. from verizon to whatever possible (tmobile or straight talk even) because verizon says i owe them $700. i havent had verizon service since then (6+ months) because i refuse to pay that. I am just using hotspots and im VERY tired of trying to find a mcdonalds or free wifi.
so im wondering if i can switch providers with a CDMA? Everywhere i looked (google) it says its not possible with CDMA only GSM.
Please help me! I apologize if i didnt find the original post similar to mine...
thanks
You're correct. You can NOT use your CDMA Nexus other than Verizon. In other words, you have to find new phone in order to use on different carrier.
Your phone will only work on verizons network. You will need a new phone one way or another.

hey guys... thanks for your help i appreciate it.
since i cant use this phone (verizon wants $1100) is there a good trustworthy place online to sell this phone?
BuyMyTronics(DOTCOM) says they would give me a little over 100 for this phone. im desperate but not desperate enough to put my personal name and address in their form without the website being https:// or ssl...
are there any LEGIT companies out there that i can trust?
haha, good luck with that. Past due bill with verizon means your phone is blacklisted. Basically you'll be selling a pretty much useless (Bad ESN/IMEI) phone that nobody else can use either.

also, your credit will take a hit and you will go to collections... but thats a story for another day.
Hi
I've just received a Galaxy Nexus Sprint from someone who didn't want it anymore and seeing as how I live in the Netherlands.
Is there a way for me to mod the hardware in a way that the phone will receive a normal sim card?
TIA
no. sprint phones work only on sprint.
So is there anyone from the netherlands who might know how to get this phone working?
And if not, is anyone interested in a Galaxy Nexus Sprint

you're talking about trying to get a CDMA phone to work on GSM networks. it cannot be done
Too bad, but thanks for your answers anyway!
So, my local Non-Corporate Verizon store had a sale this weekend on the Tab S 8.4. I didn't even know this was available for Verizon. The only Tab S on the website is the 10.5 model.
So, searching the web, I have found a few sites listing this model, but not for sale anywhere.
It is SM-T707V. Looks like it has the snapdragon.
As for root or anything custom, will I be out of luck, since no one else has this model to test?
I attached a few images.
Thanks.
As for root, if their was a way to export a copy of your recover img and other stuff then someone can port root. But idk how to pull the files to get root. But your tab s is faster then exynos chipset
I'm about to have the same problem, I think. I'm getting mine from AT&T, and it's another T707. I'm getting the feeling that we'll be SOL when it comes to root, recovery, and roms. :crying:

I'm more amazed I got such a good deal on it, and that it exists for Verizon. It's not listed anywhere for sale on their website.
I'll keep an eye out for root. Just hope the updates from Samsung are timely.

If we can find a way to pull your recovery. Img and give it to chainfire or beanstown so they can port it. As of now no. I have no idea how to pull the recovery also. Not sure if twrp can work on your device? Is your bootloader locked?

I have no idea how to check the bootloader.
If you can point me in a direction, I'll do what I can.
Otherwise, I'll just keep an eye on this forum.

Well turn off your device.
Now hold power, home, vol down till it saids warning you are about to install a custom os. Now just press the volup. If you can access that it should be unlock. Now to exit, now do power, home, vol down again and it should reboot.
I think there may be a way to root your model tablets unless the bootloader is unlocked.
My think was since twrp works on the 805 and 705 also, shouldnt that mean they should be the same for all versions of the tab s if the have the same chip? Because twrp was build for the tab s wifi devices but still worked on the lte devices. So what i thought is that they should work for the 807s with unlocked bootloaders the same way they did with the lte tab s. Then if they can get that installed all they need to do is flash supersu zip since cfautoroot does the same. Though this is jist a though but could get you guys root. Highly not recommned you try it thoufg. But just check if your bootloader is unlocked with what i told you and well see if the root method I thought of may start something. But twrp only works on eynos.... So.. Idk
I'd really just be happy with a working root method. A recovery would be nice, but not really necessary for me since there's not likely to be any development for these weird US lte variants.

Hi, where did you find the T707v? I have looked almost everywhere.
The Galaxy Tab S 8.4 is available for other carriers, but I haven't found it for Verizon.
Thank you if you reply, Jeff
TCC Wireless - http://www2.ecellularconnection.com/
They are a non-corporate Verizon retailer. They seem to be the only ones carrying it.
It is an approved Verizon device, but not sold at Verizon corporate stores. ( I Guess )
Do you know if it is locked to Verizon and also has the LTE bands to work on AT&T?

Currently getting LTE using my T-Mobile sim. I'll check using an AT&T sim in the morning.
I have one too. Even without root for $100 I couldn't pass it up.

Answered my own question. Got one. Both Verizon and AT&T sim cards work.
Yes they do. I forgot to get on here and post an update. The bad boy is GSM unlocked with full LTE on the major carriers.
You guys all got unicorns (the Galaxy Tab S 8.4 with the Snapdragon). I wish I had seen this thread before I purchased the Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 a few weeks ago. For some reason my Google Alert didn't pick it up.
I have 2 questions for those who bought the Verizon from TCC Wireless.
1) Was it $99 with a 2 year contract with Verizon or was it $99 straight up no contract?
2) What color is it, white or titanium bronze?
I'm a little disappointed that it only has the Snapdragon 800 instead of the 801 but either of them is better began the Exynos in the other versions.

1. I don't know since I did not get mine from them.
2. I believe the Verizon model is only available in white.
There´s any mod or method to unlock the gsm functionality of the galaxy s6 and s6 edge?
No hidden menus or something to try?
Thanks
I called sprint and got mine internationally unlocked without any questions. Just renewed my two year contract with the S6
root and use galaxy tools
but anyone can confirm if it works? the thing is that you can find a cheap sprint version of the s6 and s6 edge, but without the certain of a possible unlock, its not worth it.
yea i used it
Please post a small tutorial of tools used, a lot of people will be grateful.
Do you know if its a permanent unlock? in what country did you try it?

hi this really works, i unlocked mine one minute ago, Thanks.
Great, I'm still waiting for the Galaxy to come to my country, will update my results.
Shatta in what country did you try the phone? Do you think it will work with the tmobile and att versions?
Can someone put a screenshot proving it?
I'm overseas and I want to buy a sprint Edge, but I need to confirm it first to buy the phone.
And... Does it only work on wcdma or does the 4g work too?
any tutorial?
