Yes, but it'll take a little bit longer because of the radio. Expect to get the OTA around/just before the Nexus 9 LTE version becomes available.

We're never going to receive the OTA. Throw your tablet away.

Use unofficial roms, they are working pretty well.
This piece is claiming LTE/3G rollout beginning early December.
With all the issues haunting lollipop, it may be better to wait.
certification seems to be the issue

Hi.. Just got my replacment galaxy nexus maybe 2 weeks ago and im thinking "should i get the galaxy s 3.. It will cost me and extra 50euro if i want to bring my galaxy nexus back to the shop and swap for the gs3. So if you were in my shoes would you do it or? Please leave your comment on what you think

This is the Galaxy Nexus forum. Of course no one here will say they would take the S³.

For only 50 eurons on top? Yeah, I'd personally go for it.
Hell of an upgrade for that money.
The only reason I would do that - for the better battery time. S3 has a bigger battery and specs are promising a long battery time.

I can only give you the same advice I would give anyone when it comes to choosing a personal device, ROM, kernel, or just about anything for that matter.
Try both, see what fits you best. If you personally like the GS3 better, go for it. If you don't, don't. Do what makes you happy and not what makes others happy.
Hmmm good answers i like the s3 but love the way were getting android 5.0 before anyone else whenever its out

Why you are so excited about early updates? What updates Nexus got first than others which would be worth mentioning? Except the ICS itself?

Galaxy Nexus (GSM) = Android updates as soon as they're available. These updates include new stock Android features, security updates, kernel updates, driver updates, radio updates, etc. Essentially, updates to everything that runs the phone.
Everything else = anywhere from 2-18 months, or never.
Wikipedia, I know: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_version_history#Ice_Cream_Sandwich_4.0.x
Otherwise, to the OP, my previous recommendation still stands. Which device is best for you is something only you can decide, not someone else.

There haven't been any major updates. The nexus will get 4.1 and 5.0 before every other phone.

What's right. But I will repeat my question: list me the updates Nexus got first
None so far.

I love my GNEX. But if I had a chance to swap for an S3 and pay $100 on top, I would.
Hardware is better, community will be big, and the phone is much smoother and overall a lot faster in every way that I can think of.
We Canadians will be getting the 2GB RAM version in a couple weeks. I jumping on it as soon as it comes out.
And I will be keeping the GNEX since it is a very good phone still, even by the end of the year, it will still be a very good phone.

Because there hasn't been any yet. You're using a technicality. When Google finishes the next major update, it will be first on nexus phones. Besides nexus isn't about fast updates, its about having fully open kernel and rom code. That's the point. You'll never get code for touchwiz or sense framework.

4.0.1
4.0.2
4.0.3
4.0.4
And every update for the foreseeable future. Just because there haven't been any MAJOR updates (AKA, Jelly Bean or w/e it will end up being) doesn't mean it hasn't gotten every single Android update before every non-Nexus device on the market. It hasn't gotten that update yet because that update doesn't exist yet. Even so, it will get that update at least 2-∞ months before anything else, except perhaps the Nexus S or the next Nexus device(s). Most Android phones that are coming out with 4.0 are coming out with 4.0.2 or 4.0.3; and although the updates since 4.0.1 have been small, there have been several bug fixes and new small features in every update since. Take, for example, 2.3.4 which enabled video chat on Google Voice. If you didn't (or still don't) have 2.3.4 or newer, you couldn't use it. It just didn't exist as far as your phone was concerned. 4.0.3 made several improvements to ICS in general, including but not limited to graphics improvements, new APIs, new and improved camera functions, bug fixes and accessibility improvements. Not to mention that the updates and Android itself are built with this phone as the hardware reference point and more or less designed from the ground up with this phone in mind. Android 4.0.1 was released October 19, 2011 and it still only makes up 7% of Android handsets 8 months later. If Google continues releasing major Android updates in November/December, that means there are only 5-6 months left for ICS to be current, and it's easily possible we'll see more updates until then that will never appear on other phones.
Take the T-Mobile Galaxy S II for example. That phone was released 12 October 2011, a week before 4.0.1 was released. It received an update from 2.3.5 (released July 25, 2011) to 2.3.6 (released September 2, 2011) just a week or so ago. It will be finally receiving 4.0.x (IIRC the worldwide version currently has 4.0.3, which it received March 13, 3 months after the Nexus) on June 11th according to the press releases the past few days. This is actually one of the better examples of a non-Nexus device getting an update.
This whole 'argument' is ridiculous and is either trolling or an attempt to derail the thread or both. Or not, it's hard to tell sometimes. Either way, it will always be the phone that makes you happiest that is best for you. I'm done.
for another 50 Euro, go for it GS3 is way better than GNexus

After screen is broken - it just doesn't work anymore What a shame Samsung..
PS: Me.. I love my GN. But if I could, I would switch to S3. S3 is just a bit better.
PS2: Is it possible to have another launcher (if I don't like Touch Wiz) on S3? Like completely disable TouchWiz and install Apex or any other?
Check this out. Should i buy a nexus 4 or wait for this monster to come out??

I know.but i have read earlier somewhere that it will be released by google. So it will get all the updates. So basically it is another nexus without the name cause google have already released the nexus last year november
Still not relevant.
First off, thats a render. Something anyone can do in Photoshop. So dont get too excited. Second, that may not be a "Nexus" device. Google bought Motorola a while ago and was rumored to be making a phone with them. It May or may not be the next nexus. Bottom line, no one knows what will be announced at Google I/O. So no one here can actually advise you on wether to wait or not.
I'm in the same boat. Personally I will wait till the next Nexus phone. It's just not worthy it to buy an soon to be outdated phone right now.

Hello,
Is it the New Nexus 7 released in 2013?
If yes, I am not even aware it is available yet although I did read in the news that a man from China got it by mistake while shipping it from USA.
Do not tell me that you are that guy
Well, if you have the old model, Nexus 7 2012, then you have posted this in the wrong thread.
If you have the new Nexus 7, It depends that you can run custom roms or not. No one has seen the binaries or flash images for the New Nexus 7 so I can not say it might work or not. You might have to take the risk if you still want to try.
Also, I think unless LTE is integrated with some system files, you will be cool to go and not be able to use communications but that is still highly unlikely because from the old Nexus 7 LTE model, I know the source binaries were quite different.
You can even hard brick your device.
My advice, enjoy the LTE till it is official.
I work for a mobile company in the UK. So I have a final test one. A nexus 2013 LTE.

Can you make a nandroid of that rom beforehand and upload it?
(I would recommend against using TWRP for the moment as it has a lot of issues with nandroids, there seem to be a working CWM at the moment)

Probably never will make any voice calls, they so far go on overlaid 3g networks due to lots of upgrades required in the backhaul. Voip, ie. CSipSimple, is the way to go. And you will need a headset.
The Phone App is in the filesystem but doesn't show in the ui.
I'm hoping this will be different as it uses a different chip than the nexus 7 3g(2012)
The 2013 N7 LTE should be using a APQ8064-1AA + MDM9615A + WTR1605L,
which is very similar to the APQ8064 + MDM9615A + WTR1605L on the N4.
While it might be (hypothetically) possible for it to do so in hardware, it could still be disabled.
Both the N4 and 2013 N7's wifi/bt chips also support fm radio at the silicon level, but it's disabled at the chip level.
The LTE on the N4 is disabled at the firmware level (as the lte mod is due to leftover code, if it were not for that it doesnt have LTE period)
It could have voice calls disabled at the silicon level, chip level, firmware level, or rom level, since they can easily spec modems that have broken voice call support since it's not used in the first place.

I had to "refresh" my tapatalk to see it :/
OK, but is it safe to install wi-fi roms on LTE device? There isn't much "to do" in the lte forum right now.
Dont think its a good idea to slap a non LTE rom on an LTE version....even if it ran i bet there would be issues. I haev an LTE version too and it sucks that there's not really anything out there but kernels for it but I made the worse mistake buying the wifi N7 last year so I couldnt do the same this time around. I'll just be patient at least I'm overclocked and rooted which can hold me over till roms release. Although all I would like is a stock rooted and deodexed rom for the LTE version.
Pretty straight forward...anyone see any news or rumors of whether or not there will be an LTE version of the device? Just returned my Nexus 9 for a full refund since it falsely states it works with Verizon and doesn't, so I'm hoping this might be my replacement.

There's references in the source code about booting the LTE modem if present on the Pixel C, but Google hasn't announced anything yet.
Also, Verizon LTE works on Nexus 9 on Android 6.0.1

Haha thanks...I'm aware. I started the first thread and was the one who spent all the time troubleshooting the damn thing before finally giving up and returning it lol.
I bought it again on sale though since I think a Pixel and a Surface Pro are going to be overkill to have both.
