Its official! Galaxy Nexus is coming to Sprint & LTE!

It has a faster CPU than its version counterpart.
And its sprint's first lte phone!
This is my next phone.
For two simple reasons.
1: never worry about finding/losing rooting exploits, same with boot loaders.
2: fast updates. I'm not talking about ota's. I'm talking about source release, because when ICS drops on a HTC or Samsung. You can't have custom kernels, which takes a large part out of the experience. Unless the source is dropped along with drivers.
What do yo guys think?
Are you going to jump ship and get this year's annual Nexus or wait... HTC's been awfully quiet recently. Wonder what their planning
Here's the article

I'm super hype I almost spent my Christmas money. I'm putting it away. Hopefully it drops soon. My city isn't in the 1st wave of LTE cities. But I live in Las Vegas so we should get it soon after. Since this is LTE it should be bigger like other Verizon version I assume

So is it just the same CPU overclocked? Or should I say clocked at its factory rating...

We don't know yet. It might be the same CPU in the gs2. Awww that would be great
I think its call the galxos or something.
Its better than the one in the verison version .

Exynos.
I'll be holding off on this one.

I'm sure it'd be the same processor, just set at default clock speed rather than underclocked.

I hope this is true cuz I'm getting this phone there's only one phone that I would want over this & its the galaxy s3 which is going to be a monster quad core with 2 gb of ram if Samsung could only have a way to disable TW & give the options of vanilla ics or TW it would be the greatest phone ever it would practically be a galaxy nexus & galaxy s3 all in one device!! But that would never happen!

I was all about this phone a month and a half ago but now I am not so sure. I already have 2 Android phones and have considered adding an iphone to the collection especially considering my new vehicle is much more compatible with iOS than Android
We'll see i suppose.

Patiently gonna wait for this

I look forward to getting this for free at the Google I/O Conference...

Unless you live in one of the four lte cities I'd wait for the next phone. The phones hardware is nice buy there will be better VERY shortly after and since lte won't matter I'd give it a few months to drop in price honestly.

Why are you holding off? There is only one nexus a year. And wasn't the nexus one the best phone when it came out? The only thing that touched it closely was the evo. And our nexus s, nothing touched it expect for the gsii (over a year)
Nexuses simply run the smoothest because the most current version of android is made for them.
Gs3 won't come out until 2013
Gs2 is out because no lte.
So for me its the Nexus vs iPhone (isn't it always?)
And I wouldn't expect another iPhone for at least 8 months

I cant see why people would wait. We get stuck up in numbers so much we lose sight of a phone working. People cry about no up dates. Here is the chance to have the most up to date and the simplest path to roms.

Leaving for Galaxy Note!...

Hey guys, so I got an amazing deal that i just can't pass up: int'l note plus $25 for my white tmo gs2. I just have some questions though.
Do you guys think that it is worth it. not the value (i kno its a great deal) btu i'm talking performance.
Will i get 4g or just edge?
Thanks for your help

You'll only get edge until T-Mobile refarms the 1900MHz band. There's a dev called bedwa who is working on unlocking the 1700MHz band. Yes, it has it but Samsung has it locked up. The phone has the same modem as the Galaxy Nexus which is pentaband.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

I personally think the phone is a bit too big but not a bad upgrade. I would do it for only $25 but no edge.

I think he's getting 25 so he's coming up even more! I would sell it and get the gs2 again lol

Yep I'm getting the $25. I'd like to hear more about the band unlcok thing. Anyone have more info on that? The main thing I am excited for though is that it has like 5 ics roms

If this works out, I'll most likely ditch the Galaxy Nexus. There's plenty of people who'll call foul for wanting to move over to an "inferior" device but I'd love more screen real estate with increased battery life.

I have both the t989 sgs2 and the international note on T-Mobile. You will most definitely get edge speeds. I suggest u switch to at&t or a prepaid carrier who uses at&t network such as straight talk or red pocket mobile

If I dont like the note, then I will probably trade it in Craigslist for gnex plus cash. But the note has the exynos chip set at 1.4 ghz while the nexus is ti omap at 1.2 I have used the nexus and found it to be quite laggy and the screen did nit look that much bigger than the gs2 I currently have. Plus the note already has ics roms

Just picked it up and I have to say that I miss the gs2. I got the phone rooted with a from with some bugs so I guess that I will have to put it on stock adlnd then give the phone another chance. Love the screen though

Theres not much of a difference between our phone and the Note other than the screen. Hardware stuff of course but still running the same stuff.

And 100% likely to get ICS way before the T989.

Way before of course

The only thing stopping me from getting the note is no 4G on tmobile. Once you're used to 4G, there's no used to going back to 56k aka edge

I have 2 upgrades.

I currently have the galaxy s 3, but I just noticed I have one upgrade available now and one available in 54 days. Is there any new phones coming out soon that's suppose to be amazing?

Yeah..soon hoepfully...though its not really a HUGE upgrade from the S3. It's basically a larger S3 with a stylus. It will launch with Jelly Bean but we'll get the ugrade soon so I dont think ima jump ship..but you never know though..might change my mind when I actually hold it

In a business enviroment, the way they implemented the s-pen to work as a MAJOR feature of the note 2, it is going to change the course of smartphones pretty drastically. I think once it is out, and its functioning as they designed, people are going to start expecting a new level of interaction and function with their phones that will likely set the enviroment of which other manufactures will have to adapt to or be eaten. I could go on, but point here, This phone is going to be a big influence in what tomorrows devices will be capable of and i think it it is going to show undeniable ingenuity in the smartphone business that cannot be ignored.:beer:

It really is MUCH more than a stylus, its the leader of its 5 in. Ecosystem. Its designed to lead the software even better than the software was designed to acknowledge its directions.

My source says you should wait at least until the end of this month to make a decision. I trust it so I'm holding off on upgrading now.

True, the note 2 is coming out and might be worthy of one of your upgrades. Personally I would buy two iPhone 5s and flip em, make 5-600$ and keep my GS3.

I'm in the same boat. Just got the GS3 on release day, have an upgrade available and another coming in 173 days. Probably going to pick up the Note 2 as soon as it's available.

Gotta wait till the 29th for me to make any decisions, but I'm not gonna lie, the lack of microSD slots these days is really starting to tick me off.

yup I would do that but no sdcards slot makes me say hell no.
But hopefully they release more than 1 nexus, I would few more days.

Well, if you already have the nexus, no SD cards are something that you are uses too. That's probably one of the biggest adjustments I'd say.
Personally, I prefer SD card support.

I'm seriously considering moving over if the Nexus 4 is big hit because the lack of updates is really pissing me off. I was going to originally move over to the Note II but it's too expensive right now, so I rather see what Nexus 4 has to offer.

Yeah but HTC is no longer dev friendly... and the build quality of their last couple of Tmo devices has been junk. Just my opinion (and I was a huge HTC fanboy - nexus one, mt4g, amaze, and one s). Amaze and One S were junk by my standards

The next upgrade from E4GT. Optimus G or Note 2?

I would like to know where everyone is going when their contract ends. Dev community is a deal breaker for me. Im pushing towards the note (phantomhacker, venom),but optimus g has serious potential.
Sent from my SPH-D710

I'm getting the Note but not for any reason other than I prefer Samsung to LG
plus LeBron James has it
<< mindless consumer >>

My contract doesn't end for a while but I wouldn't get either. I'm holding out till next year. I want to get a phone that will support 800mhz LTE and 1900mhz, possible the 2500,2600 band as well. With some newer battery technology.
I buy most my phones off contract used once they drop in value anyways. I'll probably end up getting what ever good deal is around by then.

Note 2 > LG OG. I just upgraded to the sgs3 til next month when I get my note 2. My dad bought the note and gave me his sgs3 which was only ~2 months old so I'm not complaining free phone and still have my upgrade on dec1 to use on the note 2. The note is definitely worth the upgrade its one badass device, has ridiculous battery life with the 3100mah and no lag even when multitasking in the dual pane mode.

私は神の罰です。

I still can't believe I'm saying this, but I reallllly like the optimus G. Ever since our store got our stock in I can't put the demo down. The screen and processor alone are what's winning me over.
LG kind of won me over in a small way recently, and that's because our LG viper got it's ICS upgrade shortly before the Optimus launch, and in the process, brought it's UI up to match the Optimus and Mach exactly. That shows me motivation and I like it.
But the end I'm being held back for two reasons: it's already behind on software; this typically isn't a problem for me but it is in this case because of the 2nd reason: the boot loader is locked. If there won't be any official unlock, or if devs unlock it but it's piece-mealed together, I'm not going to get it. It's one of the many reasons why I've stuck with Samsung, not having to go through all the BS with boot loaders and such.

All that is a concept of a sgs4. Nothing real, nothing but a fantasy. Please don't get panties in a bunch because then you will be disappointed when it is actually released.

Yea lol, fan concept =//= factual stuff.
That looks like a nice concept though.
