So I recently cracked my Verizon Galaxy Nexus Display, and it no longer turns on. I found a replacement display for the i515 sprint version that includes the back display frame. My question is whether or not this sprint display will be compatible with my Verizon nexus. Here is a picture:

Yes. It will work just fine.
Keep in mind that the i515 is the VZW Nexus. The Sprint Nexus is something else.

Awesome thanks! Yeah I knew that i515 was the Verizon version, but I never knew that the sprint was actually the L700. Thanks again!

The more I look, the less I am sure. Take a look at this picture, the parts seem different. Are you sure?

My gnex has a broken screen and is a GSM that I'm using on t mo. What I want to know is if I buy a Verizon version with a bad esn would the screen on the cdma version work on the GSM one.
Also a bonus question would I be able to put the 32 gb memory in the GSM version.

Possibly... but the phones are definitely not built the exact same (just take the battery cover off and you'll see). So I'd need someone with more technical knowledge of the differences to chime in.
Depending on how much you're paying for that you might be better off selling yours for parts and buying a new one since they're only $399 now.

Definitely no.
They definitely have some differences in parts. When I had an issue with one of my GSM versions I remember looking up tear downs for both and they were a lot more differences that I originally thought. I'd be very cautious attempting to put a part from the cdma variant into GSM until you're 100% sure it'll work. Hopefully someone here can confirm.

Hey I have a Verizon galaxy nexus and I'm selling it because Verizon is too expensive so I'm moving to T mobiles monthly 4G plan for $30 (100 minutes + unlimited texts + unlimited data)
I thouht about getting the s3 but something about having on screen buttons just spell win:laugh:
Anyway Im interested in getting the white galaxy nexus but I'm concerned that it won't be compatible with t mobiles hspa_ 21mbps
Also does anyone know if all the Gnex versions (yakju, yakjuxw , yakjusc etc) support t mobile hspa+ 21 as well?
Question 2: Do you know if the google play store will offer (or offered) the white galaxy nexus?
thanks!
I couldn't answer the first question but as of now, Google is not offering the white Nexus through Play. But who knows they might add it in after the JB upgrade or after they put the Nexus up back on the store? Hold on a little while if you want to find out.
I think that the White Nexus is just for the people that attended Google I/O.
Just like Nexus 7.
The phones given out at I/O weren't white iirc.
So just the tablets were ?
Haven't heard that the I9250 isn't compatible with any operator. It is a Pentaband phone, so it should support every network around (except LTE ofc.).
But do correct me if i'm wrong
Yes it was just the tablets that were white for I/O
My bad then.

1. Any GSM GNex is compatible with TMo's HSPA+. Just watch out for the DoCoMo ones, as they're carrier locked and not worth the headache unless you can get a very, very good deal
2. No one knows at this point
I bought it 2 weeks ago from Amazon for 424 with one day shipping

All i9250 models are compatible, no matter what color they are.

They all do. And you can flash any one to yakju/takju, the software is irrelevant.

Never seen one.
Hi there,
Looking to see if anyone knows if the Sprint/Verizion models have different LCD-Digitizers than the GSM model. I have a GSM one that just had the LCD crack and i was looking on ebay for some replacements. Some of the cheaper posts don't have which version the part is from.
any help appreciated!

they are all fused... if your up to trying to do it anyways you are braver than I.The displays and digitizers had aught to be identical. The difference between models is the backs, and the motherboards. If you look at the physical differences, the toro/toroplus have a daugter board with a modem on it, and that accounts for the extra depth.
To me, seperating the digitizer and display would be more of a headache than buying one someone had dunked in water and just using the guts from that. Most of the cost of the phone is the display. The soc is only like $30 when buying quantities greater than 1000...

Oh im not planning on separating them. They are sold as one piece, i was looking to see if i buy a combined one if it would matter if it came from a cdma/LTE one to be placed on a gsm.
Shouldn't matter from what I know, they should all be pretty much the same

i'm in the same boat. if anyone is certain that an lcd-digitizer from an lte gnex is a perfect replacement for a gsm gnex, please do let us know.
Hi, so are they the same? I just cracked my screen and want to replace it.
Please let me know.
Much appreciated!

they are not the same. the cables are in different locations.
Thanks for the quick reply.
I wish it was otherwise! the sprint digitizer was much cheaper. Most of the sellers do not specify which version it'll work with and add to the confusion.

Not to mention they have different motherboard layouts so you will have to mod it heavily.

Hate to resurrect this old thread but can you tell me if the sprint and verizon versions are the same? My verizon has a cracked screen and the sprint replacements are DIRT CHEAP compared to the vzw versions.
Thanks!

Even though they're both CDMA / LTE? If you don't mind me asking, how do you know for sure? I was looking at photos of them on eBay and they look mighty similar but it's very hard to tell for sure.
Thank you so much for your replies.

my cousin has the sprint one and they look 100 percent identical, form factor wise. Only question is the plug inside the device at the same spot on both devices? Try and look at a break down /disassembly of bothers variants to see what's inside

Well i'm fairly certain the LCD itself is interchangeable, the board is not. Switching the cases from a T-mobile to Sprint will not work, as the boards are constructed slightly differently on the top and bottom. the T-Mobile will not fit correctly in the back of the Sprint case, I (sadly) know from experience. :/
I recently dropped by GNex and the screen got shattered. :/
I've been looking for a replacement screen online and found that replacement screens for this phone are relatively expensive. But then I found a part labelled as a replacement screen for the Sprint Galaxy Nexus. I was wondering if this part would work with my unlocked GSM Galaxy Nexus? Would it be compatible?

In theory it will fit, but no idea if it works.
There shouldn't be a difference right? I mean isn't the sprint version supposed to be the same except for the radio?
Don't think it will fit..
Someone went ahead despite the uncertainty, he have not report back yet..
I guess I will go ahead without certainty too...
im pretty sure it doesnt. i believe the cable is in a different spot.
