I have the Samsung Galaxy W SGH-T679M. Would root methods and ROMs that are meant for the Samsung Galaxy W i8150 work for the SGH-T679M? Thanks

Sorry to tell you, but what you have is not GT-i8150, AKA Galaxy Wonder!!!
You are probably on Bell Canada, and they have Galaxy Wonder, but it is really SAMSUNG EXHIBIT II 4G.......
Can you look at this thread, on another forum, I am dannymur there.
Hi ag2000ir
We are comparing different models, both branded as Galaxy W, but models are different
Bell Mobility Canada???
I think this is a real Scam, as it is described as Samsung Galaxy W
You got SGH-T679M.....1 GHz CPU, 3MP Camera.
I got GT-I8150.......1.4GHz CPU, 5MP Camera.
Very hard to find spec for SGH-T679M.
See this from Samsung Canada
PERFORMANCE
The speedy 1 GHz application processor delivers smooth video playback and gaming without hitches or delay. HSPA+ 14.4 Mbps support ensures up to two times faster data download speeds.

Unfortunately, even here nothing is said about the CPU difference!!!
See here for Passmark Scores for GT-I8150
And here for Passmark Scores for SGH-T679M
Is it a Canada thing, if so, I would be pretty mad, but is there a price differential, or is the higher spec model available?
EDIT, here is Comparison, from GSM Arena, your phone is the SAMSUNG EXHIBIT II 4G, as sold in the US, but they have branded your Canadian version as Galaxy W.........not nice IMHO

Main Question
How do I get the HSPA+ working on my Galaxy Nexus (Yakju Tuna) here in Panamá, with Telefónica Movistar?
Question Details
Movistar has HSPA+ working here in Panamá, a friend of mine has his Galaxy S3 with the HSPA+ working correctly. My problem is that i got my Galaxy Nexus (GSM Global, Yakju) from Amazon, and have never been able to get the HSPA+ in my device. I am trapped in HSPA (3.5G)
Movistar is selling the Galaxy Nexus now, they say they do have HSPA+ (Here called 4G), however I haven't tested them myself. I tried changing the baseband to the exact same one they use(XXKK6, downloaded here); Didn't work. I had hopes for new Jellybean Baseband, didn't work either. I swapped my SIM with a new one; didn't work. Took the SIM from my HSPA+ friend on another carrier (Digicel); didn't work. Wiped it several times; didn't work.
I talked with my carrier as well. I have permission to use a speed of up to 5MB, the HSPA+ speed, but SpeedTest gives me a maximun of 1MB only.
Is there a way to get HSPA+ working here or am I screwed?
More Details
It seems here in Panamá a certain store with heavy influence is seelling a so called Galaxy Nexus II, model number i9250w. Have found nothing on the internet concerning this device. In my opinion, this could mean the Galaxy Nexus that works in my carrier is one of those Yajku derivates. They did the same thing for the Galaxy S2, selling a weird derivate called Galaxy S 4G.
Talked with my carrier's customer service. Told me nothing new
For a time changed my stock Baseband to the Baseband XXKK6, the same one they use on their display models. Obiously didn't work either.
Had in my hands one of the devices they have on display. They let me play with it, but I couldn't get the device name, frequecy used or anything. The only thing that looks different form my Device is the Build Number, an old version of stock ICS.
Phone details
ROM: Android 4.1.1 JellyBean Stock
Build Number: JRO03C
Current Baseband: I9250XXLK1
Mobile Network Type (Maximun I get): HSDPA:8
Model: Yakju (GSM International)
Device: Maguro
Anyone knows anything I haven't tried?
Im in panama too but on Claro(regular 3.5)
I have a galaxy note with +movil that gets h+, you should give that carrier a try

I'll try again, the problem has to be Movistar. I have a friend with +Movil.

Exactly my thoughts.
It does have a different model number, however. What I thought was that it refers top a regional variant, like the Sprint/Tellus Galaxy Nexus. But it also could mean a typo...

When I was in Panama, I used +Móvil and managed to get 3-4mbps speeds which are decent.

Hello,
I have Samsung Galaxy S II 4G for T-Mobile and I want to get it unlocked since I am travelling to India. I did check the list at http://unlockliberty.com for their unlock code. I was not able to find Samsung Galaxy S II 4G in that list. Can I select Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE and get the same unlock code? In case Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE is not correct, then which phone in that list can I select which is similar to Samsung Galaxy S II 4G for T-Mobile for unlocking?
Thanks so much.
SGSII Hercules (T989) is the TMobile/Telus version. They both have hspa+ radios which is not really 4G.
No they are not the same. LTE is a completely different type of hardware/software used to produce a signal from the towers. Best bet is to call Samsung or Tmobile (if you still use them) to produce the code for you. I used to work in tech support for T Mobile and the unlock code only takes about 24 hours to get to you. At least it never took any longer then that when I was working there. Good luck to you thought
I use Net10 as my provider and it looks like they will have the S II soon. Since there is no forum for that specific phone from net10 which variant is closest? Also, will cyanogen mod be possible?

Thanks!
It looks like the AT&T variant of the Galaxy S2 but with stock Android 2.3 out of the box. It also shares the same specs as the AT&T model of the S2. You can try flashing a ROM meant for the AT&T S2 and it will probably be fine.
Can I flash Tmobile S3 rom on ATT Galaxy S3? My friend is giving his ATT S3 to me. Would it be a good idea to keep it although I'm on T-mobile? Will everything (MMS, 3G/4G) work properly?
Yes GSM roms, so far work fine in between each other for flashing.
