Will AT&T ever get this device? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm sorry if this has been discussed. Will AT&T ever get this device? If not where is the best place to purchase an unlocked GSM version of it? Thank You!

Pretty sure you could buy the AT&T version from Best Buy for ages now.
*edit* July of last year in fact.

its not that bad of a question. If you live some place where Best Buy isn't or just ignore that inglorious box of blue stained diaper filler you'd not know that the i9020A was available there.
That said, having gone from a Captivate to a Nexus S myself, you might want to sit on your wallet for a bit and wait for the Galaxy Nexus to finally come to AT&T. I made the leap knowing that the captivate and nexus S are more or less the same hardware only because I knew the Galaxy Nexus was going to be uncomfortably large in my hands.
From an Android standpoint, a captivate with Cyanogen or some other AOSP based ROM will work and act like a Nexus S. Only real reason to move is if you want AOSP without having to work for it

The NS was never available at an AT&T store but only at Best Buy. This is why there is no AT&T branding as it really isn't a AT&T "supported" phone.

Like that but GSM for T-Mo?
Blackberry or a slider is about all you'll get on T-Mobile.
Ok - how about even AT&T? It is just nuts that there is no demand for this I feel like. It would help move people from BB.
I believe the Verizon Droid Pro can be unlocked for use on AT&T? I know it has a GSM radio in there somewhere!
My ultimate ideal is the Dell Venue Pro with Android. I'll keep dreaming

I looked into that - the last time I checked using it on AT&T was a no-go. Could have changed since then.
I would absolutely love one of these styles to show up, rocking a largish screen and decent internals with a stock build of Gingerbread.

That GP looks nice. Probably would be a much better choice than a Moto.
The dell venue pro is the best phone you'll get for t-mobile, fortunately for me and unfortunately for you its not running android.

Both Galaxy Pro and Facebook phone are underpowered, tiny/crappy screens. We need a REAL phone in those formats. The one for Sprint is perfect format.
you should wait for motorola pro then, but its probably expensive. http://gsmarena.com/motorola_pro-3781.php

lol its basically same phone (but with bigger internal memory, and bit smaller) than the one in your original post yet its still crappy for you. if you want a better screen just go full touch. otherwise the phone would be too expensive to market, not to mention too large.

Galaxy Nexus 7, should i get it?

Hello
Im looking to get a tablet and iv noticed that the Galaxy Nexus 7 tablet seems to get some pretty good feedback, and the price seems very nice.
I will most likely use the tablet to watch movies, play games, do school work and surf on the nett a bit.
Can someone confirm it is a good tablet for my use?
Thanks =)

Yes, yes, yes. Got one for work demo purposes and love it. Going to get one for personal use as well I reckon.
The voices in my head are telling me to buy one, £200 for a tablet with those specs is a bargain, but my wife is telling me no
So far she's winning, but if it had 3G I'd give my works crappy ipad3 back and get myself a nexus7
Yeah, get one .
Nexus 7 is awesome , meanwhile, you can consider Galaxy Note 10

Don't listen to your wife! :laugh: Nothing good ever came out of listening to your wife / girlfriend.
Be advised...it is not a GALAXY Nexus 7. Galaxy is a Samsung trademark. The tablet is made by Asus. It is just a Nexus 7.
Unless you can get one of the older tablets for much cheaper, N7 is best deal by far.
It is not called GALAXY Nexus 7

Highly recommend the N7

What new phone should i get?

So i kind of fell out of the phone loop after my One X was stolen and had to use my POS Samsung Infuse. My taxes are coming in and i want to get a new phone again. I been debating on the Nexus 4 because the specs look pretty beefy and the reviews have been good, plus i like the ascetic to it. I'm just leery about it since LG doesn't have the greatest track record on phone since the G2x was a HUGE disappointment to me and the HTC G1 and G2 where my favorite all time phones. So in a nutshell, what phone would you suggest and why (also i don't want a note to, i don't like the size of it. 4.7-4.8 is perfectly fine for me.) But thanks in advance.
N4. G2x wasn't a nexus so a lot of stuff wasn't open source. That's why it was a mess. I still miss my g2x tho
JellyB-TSM v16 / Apex Pro

It was a decent phone but it was way too buggy even if you flashed a new rom like Weapon. But like in said the reviews look great the only discerning thing is LG's track record and I don't want to wait weeks for it it. Plus I'm not sure if any decent phones are coming out in Q1 or Q2. I'm not going to get the S4 just because of how fast they come out and people jump ship to the new flagship Galaxy S phone.

Try Sony xperia s
DONT FORGET TO HIT THANKS.......
R: What new phone should i get?
I'm actually thinking of upgrade to an xperia Z. It will be worldwide released soon. It gas awsome specs falso if for some a bit old(the processor) but it is dust proof and waterproof. And last but notte least Sony already released his kernel sources, so there will be really good developing!!!

[Q] Nexus 5 or 6?

Hey guys I am moving from VZW to ATT and I am unsure if I should just get the Nexus 5 or wait till the 6 is released? I am a fan of larger phones (Note 2, 3). Not sure if I should just wait it out or jump right in?
Thanks all,
BillyBrickz
questions go into the q&a section, not general. ask a mod to move your thread please. anyways, the n6 hasn't been released yet, and everything is all rumor about it. do your question can't really be answered yet. but really, if you want a larger than a n5 size screen device, then wait. if not, buy a nexus 5.
Wait until the Nexus 6 is out and there are good reviews to look at. If possible, go to a store and try one out for yourself. Only then purchase if it meets your needs.
if you want screen just go with nexus 6.ne mobile could come near tothis for atleast two years.but if you want roms and other development it would get a lot of time.I think nexus 5 is best leave the screen but with all roms and everything its the best
guys,
is the nexus 5 still one of the best phones available? i realize there are a new bunch of flagships out and am wondering if i should pick up a cheap nexus 5 or go big with the moto x 2014? i love the customization of roms and kernels the nexus brings to the table but am concerned about buying a phone that's a year old almost. any help/insight?

Good bye LG

First since lg L7 I've been buying all LG phones i was a fan of LG ..but now after G4 and G5 i am going back to samsung or nexus devices .. I had enough of LG no updates i had my last update on November.. No support no bootloader unlock no root .. And a lot of bugs and hardware issues ..after few days of using V10 the volume down button doesn't work .. And even with updates Korea goes first and then Turkia and Poland and it keeps going like that then the last one is international variant so i am sick of waiting for updates and i think theres many other ppl who are selling their LG phones and going back to king of phones samsung and nexus

SHAME ON YOU LG...
Wow I don't get it. I love love love this phone. Great battery life, never any lag, great radios, I even love the second screen - it may be my favorite feature.
But to each his or her own. Good luck with new phone

Interesting considering LG makes the Nexus 5X, Samsung has gone the apple route by making batteries not removable. Not to mention the Qualcomm 820 overheating issues (Samsung S7) causing the cpu to throttle back performance.
To each is own though, I love the second screen, the performance, the removable battery and external memory support.
Have fun with Samsung with their extremely bloated phones and their apple wannabe behavior.
If I wanted an iPhone, I'd buy an iPhone.. Not a Samsung knockoff.
The good thing about this is that there are many new phones on the second hand market plus companies get money for free. And some guys never will be happy and will never find the perfect phone since there are new devices knocking on the door. If you wanna be happy, buy an iPhone. They release phones only once a year so one can be happy for at least one hole year. What's the problem with LG - an Korean company - to first release software in their home market? Also they sell more phones in Korea than in the US.
People like to whine...LG v10 is a fabulous phone. No complaints from this power user!
