developers and anyone listening. Do you think it will be possible to port the picture in picture function in the new SGSIII to the nexus?

Anything is possibly but more than likely won't happen. Buy a GS3.

I believe the same guy who pulled Flipboard apk said he'd pull s-voice and others off when he can. Then we'll see if it works. It probably won't though, but you never can tell.

I am really not understanding the logic behind this statement. There are already dev's committed to putting the GS3 stock ROM on the Gnex.

Sprint gnex question?

I've searched the forums and didn't find anything related to what I'm asking, but if there's already a topic on it then I apologize in advance.
I was wondering if there's any way to find out which cell tower your phone is connected to?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I think there is an app in the play store. I forget the exact name.

As long as it is a GSM Nexus, then yes. They use either ATT or TMobile towers.

You could try and flash it to cricket, boost mobile, Virgin mobile, page plus, etc. Some people have seemed to get it to work.

OK so for final thoughts I can either sell this phone and get the international galaxy nexus for straight talk or flash this current phone with a carrier such as cricket yes?

Yes you can bring any AT&T or T-Mobile compatible device to Straight Talk. Just choose at the time of order whether you want AT&T or T-Mobile service. The GSM GNex can do either one.

Basically those are your two options. Considering you won't get LTE when you leave Verizon, and its a huge hassle to flash, I'd just sell it buy a GSM model and put it on a GSM prepaid carrier. Faster speeds and less hassle on your end.

Ya its a big hassle when compared to just buying a Straight Talk (or any other carrier) SIM and just putting it in the phone.
Not to mention that on Cricket you'll be stuck on EVDO 3G, which is quite slow often.
Where can I check out gsm pre paid cards? Are these expensive and have 4g speeds?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
And does straight talk have close to 4g? And I keep seeing hspa what is that?

I have at&t straight talk and I get hspa+ speeds a lot. Some people call it 4g. I would consider it like 3.5g. But I can pull like 4Mb down, which is fast enough for me

Check out the massive prepaid thread. Popular options right now are T-Mobile Monthly 4G, Straight Talk, Simple Mobile and Net10.

You get HSPA+, the faster-than-normal-3G connection. Plenty of info out there about it. No LTE on prepaid carriers just yet. The GSM Galaxy Nexus doesn't have LTE either way though, so the only way you'll get LTE is to go Verizon (or Sprint lol).
Speeds will be dependent on your area and network saturation. YMMV, I'd expect 2-7mbps down / 1-4mbps up.

Can a unlocked att s3 be used on t-mobiles network?

Just as the title says. I have a friend who's wife bought a s3 and doesn't like it, and they want to sell it. I'm on t-mobile and they are on att. Thanks in advance.

It will work, however until T mobile completes rebanding the 3g network you will only get edge or 2g data. Voice will work fine.

You should be able to. I have mine on Cricket with everything except MMS working. Just google or search for xda for Autoprime's thread on how to flash your GNex.
