Sent a 16GB replacement - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hey guys, I was sent a 16GB nexus as a replacement to my rezound instead of a 32GB. If I speak to them, should I be able to get a 32?

Thats weird that they sent you a Rezound, unless you asked for it. And do they even have a 32GB version of the Rezound?
EDIT: The Rezound actually has a Micro SD Card slot.
I misread your post. lol. Sorry.
EDIT 2: You are on Verizon right? I thought Verizon Galaxy Nexus only came in 32GB

Does the phone actually say Verizon on the back?

Let me explain. I had a bunch of rezounds and asked for a gnex as a replacement. I thought they were all 32GB, not the one i just got from them.

That is weird because everything I can find points to all Verizon Galaxy Nexus phones being 32GB.

lol yes it is a verizon SCH-i515 device i got it from verizon as a replacement for my droid charge after getting like 6 diff phone that all didnt work right so yeah

From wikipedia
"SCH-i515 "Toro": Verizon Wireless's variant featuring 4G LTE connectivity in the 700 MHz band (Band 13) as well as CDMA/EV-DO Rev. A connectivity in the PCS bands (800/1900 MHz). This device features 32 GB of on-board storage, measures 9.47 mm thick and features a 1850 mAh battery. This device's appearance is similar to that of the international version."
The only thing I can think of is that its a refurbished 16GB international version where Verizon they might have added their stuff into it.

Wait a minute...there was this underneath that:
"SCH-i516 "Toro": This model is same as Verizon's Galaxy Nexus: SCH-i515, however this version has 16 GB."

Verizon first killed off the 32GB Galaxy Nexus back in October in favor of the 16GB model
Read more at http://www.cultofandroid.com/21815/...-discontinued-by-verizon/#STK2XUuQ1BzM54wX.99

So now I have two questions. The first is what is the difference between the 515 and the 515v, and the second is do you think Verizon will send me a 32 if I call?

If they killed off the 32 GB version, they might not carry them anymore. But you could always call anyway.

The rep swapped it out with a 32GB

its HSPA+ only.
Got a white one!
Just took advantage of this deal. I already have a gray one bought from Negri but I'll be returning through Amex premium return to pay for this one. I'll be saving a total of $120. I really wanted a white one and saw they were offering it so I went for it. If anyone is hesitant to buy from from dailysteals.com don't be. They are a really good company to buy from. I bought a galaxy note about two weeks ago and it came brand new. They forgot to include the 8GB SD card and when I emailed them about it they just sent me one no questions ask. If your looking for a nexus this is the deal for you.
What about warranties?
Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk
Not really worried about warranty. If you already have a galaxy nexus or contemplating on getting a international one you already know you won't get warranty anyway. There really isn't a point to worry because no one will have it anyway. Better to just get one at this price then buying it somewhere else for $100+.
I bought one last month on eBay for $580. Well

Sprint's Galaxy Nexus will be LTE. Since Sprint's 3G network is CDMA, there's no way for them to have HSPA+ (which is GSM only). But Sprint will barely have any LTE coverage when they launch the Galaxy Nexus since they're new to the LTE game.

So Nexus 4 21+ or 42+

Seems to be some confusion over this. Is the Google Play Verizon only 21+ Mbps and the T Mobile one 42 Mbps?
Reports suggest there will be two phones. The Play store will have the HSPA+21 phone and T-mobile Usa will have the HSPA+42 phone. I'm thinking there is only gone be one phone. Doesn't make since for LG to make two separate phone when a +42 version can go both ways.
There is 1 phone. It is unlocked and comes in 8GB and 16GB capacities. It is pentaband 42mbps DC-HSPA+. There is no "T-Mobile version" or "Play Store Version". T-Mo is just reselling the unlocked device.
Seriously. This isn't even debatable at this point.
https://sites.google.com/site/androidpresssite/home/tech-specs
Confirmed by countless sources, and coming directly from the Google PR. There's simply 1 typo on the Play Store spec sheet indicating its 21.

Third party software? *Gasp*
Then it won't be a real Nexus.
There is no t mobile version.
They will just sell the device subsidized in some stores. At most they might put a t mobile sticker and sim on or in the box.

If its subsidized, its a Tmobile version. Now the Tmobile version is the same as the Play Store version hardware-wise, but they could add software to it.
Or they might not. Just sayin.
So is HSPA+ 42 Mbps the equivalent of DC-HSDPA?
So since I am on at&t I could just walk into T-Mobile and buy the same device instead of ordering through the play store?

Don't think so, but could be wrong. They may make a Wi-Fi calling app included. Decent chance that it won't be included though.

Right now it seems so. Waiting to see 100% confirmation that the software will be the same, but we know the hardware is. Worst case scenario we're looking at a takju vs yakju deal and it can either be flashed or is essentially the exact same software.

No T-Mobile branding at all. The SIM won't be in the box, they'll just unbox and activate the SIM for you in the store.

Little point asking your question here.
What you have purchased is not a Note II, and isn't going to be compatible with *any* Note II ROMs.
http://www.chinasmartphonereview.com/i7100-galaxy-note-clone/
It may look like a Note II, but that is where the similarity ends.

I'm in Ann Arbor Michigan at the moment. Yeah I've heard T-Mobile is letting the frequency 1900 get full 3G/4G . I heard that Seattle, Las Vegas, Washington, DC, and the New York metro are going to be the first to get it. I'm not getting 3G in my area though . Idk why. Oh and by the when you get your phone, the battery might seem like its running down fast at first but after a couple of charges it lasts longer.
Thanks for that info Alexander. Who did you order yours from? How long did it take to get to you?

Something already went wrong . I tried to get a new bootanimation and sofbricked my phone.. Preloader appers and disappears. I think its my USB (My dog ate the one that came with the phone) OH! The charging port on the phone needs a longer pin to go in the phone just in case you mess up the one that came with the phone. Lol. Im getting a new one.. I'm broke now.. BUT the one I'm getting looks JUST like the Note and it has a stylus ! and this is the amazing part.. It has a 12.0 mp camera and 720p display. I need a life :/

T-Mobile 32GB SGH-M919 Variant

I've been waiting for T-Mobile to announce the availability of a 32GB variant of the S4 but everyone I've asked at T-Mobile has no clue or ETA for the device.
Has anyone heard anything about the availability of the 32GB device?
Does anyone know of an alternate S4 device that has 32GB of storage and will support all of the bands that the SGH-M919?
I have to use my device as a business device so I don't plan to root it as my company's MDM and monitoring agents freak out and I get beaten up by the IT police so I'm not worried about being able to load custom ROMs onto the device.
I have a 64GB UHS-1 MicroSD so it's not SD Card storage I'm looking for but actually more storage to use on in the phone's actual memory.
Any thoughts?
Why not just get a memory card?
I have a 64gb microsd card but I want the option of having more than 8gb free that the 16gb phone comes with.

Yeah it's cool to be able to play with it now and as I mentioned I have a 64 MicroSD UHS-1 card but I'm more concerned of having the memory on the phone available for app data or some apps I use for work that I dont have the ability to offload content to the MicroSD for.
So with all that being said does anyone have any idea for the original question I asked about an variant device?
You can buy the AT&T 32gb version, enable AWS and flash t-mobile rom. The phones are the same with aws disabled by software

Thank you for that info mxmarcus - I didn't know they were identical... do you know if I will have to unlock and root the AT&T version to put the T-Mo ROM on the phone?

Here is the link to enable AWS on AT&T variant
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2291589
Root and unlock should be easy.
I just order mine and I am planning to flash T-Mobile rom after enabling AWS
dont think that the ATT version has all the LTE bands that the tmob one has.
and about the 32gb version its an IF not a WHEN
TristianX said:
I've been waiting for T-Mobile to announce the availability of a 32GB variant of the S4 but everyone I've asked at T-Mobile has no clue or ETA for the device.
Has anyone heard anything about the availability of the 32GB device?
Does anyone know of an alternate S4 device that has 32GB of storage and will support all of the bands that the SGH-M919?
I have to use my device as a business device so I don't plan to root it as my company's MDM and monitoring agents freak out and I get beaten up by the IT police so I'm not worried about being able to load custom ROMs onto the device.
I have a 64GB UHS-1 MicroSD so it's not SD Card storage I'm looking for but actually more storage to use on in the phone's actual memory.
Any thoughts?

yes, I have a ATT 32gb sim unlocked (via code from ATT) and AWS bands enabled, look at the thread in the ATT i337 forum on how to do it. to enable AWS you need to flash a new QCN file to the phone.
you can also now fully flash tmobile rom to an ATT S4 look on Galaxys4root.com for that video and also the aws enable video.
Everywhere I have read att has exclusive to the 32gb.
And no they're are not exactly the same, the att has less bands of lte support.

Are you certain? I thought they both have the same specs, modems, and everything. (other than the locked boot loader).

by the way, I see LTE band 2 and band 5 in the configs and they do enable. (can't really test).
I'm pretty sure U.S. GS4 are all the same, capable of using each their own bands of lte. *Obviously I'm excluding gsm vs cdma* we all know that difference.

Yes.
T-Mobile's SGS4 has more bands. ATT's has less bands.
You can use the T-Mobile SGS4 on either carrier no problem. You can't witht he ATT one.
Just google them, you can compare the specs on Samsung's official websites, they list the bands.

You can also google or search XDA on how to unlock AWS on AT&T S4 to use on TMO.
but you can't just walk into an AT&T store and buy one, right?
ebay or some other site.

No you can't unless something has changed. They will not sell you a device, even at "full retail" if you don't have a plan with them.

If you wait there's a thread in here about an update that let's you put app on the sdcard and Samsung was able to squeeze a Lil more space into the device but it said it's only available to Germany right now

Can I use this phone in London?

I'm gong to London for work. Is there a way I can use this phone?
It is a global phone. Just need to get a SIM card from over there to pop in. Sure there are others that can go more in depth but in a nutshell the answer is yes

Yes. Just used it there for 3 weeks. Drop into a Carphone Warehouse and get a 3 SIM card. Unlimited data, calls and text (within the UK, of course) for £15.
Are all newer Verizon phones [LTE] global?
I don't think all are global phones.

I'm fairly sure that all 4g phones are global and unlocked as well. I used my phone in the Philippines with a new sim, and with an old Droid RAZR, no issues on either. Not sure about the iPhone but it doesn't really matter anyway ;p

Like the iPhone, there's a slot on the side. A tool comes with the phone in the box. Or a paperclip should work too.

ill throw my 2 cents in here. I put a straight talk sim in my GS4 and it worked without a hitch on h+ as soon as I put in the APNs

no choice. Part of their lte spectrum purchase. They are no longer allowed to lock the sim.

Wait a second!
Are you saying that if I go to a country that has a GSM-only system and toss in a GSM Sim, I can use this phone and Verizon gets no cut and is otherwise not part of the transaction? IE acting fully unlocked?!!

as long as the bands are compatible, check out gsmarena for built it bands.

Sorry to be dense, but HERE is the HTC One link at GSM Arena. How do I know which bands are supported by the Verizon Model. It seems to only single out a "Sprint" band. Thanks for the help.

The Verizon Wireless HTC One is a true world phone, with quad-band EDGE (850/900/1800/1900 MHz), dual-band EV-DO Rev. A (850/1900 MHz), dual-band UMTS (1900/2100 MHz), and LTE support; it runs at 4G speeds here in the U.S. and 3G speeds overseas in most countries.

HTC One with SIM on straight talk?
Are you saying that if you take this phone, and plug in a straight talk SIM card, it should work? Granted it may not run any faster than 3G, but it'll work?
