Hi XDA Community,
I just purchased a slightly used Nexus S 4G from my friend and Im wondering how do I flash it to boost mobile services
Question 2: Since my friend used it, his number is on it, how do I make that my number
btw the nexus s 4g is from sprint
please help me and possibly link me to a thread showing how to do so.
PS: my nexus is running 4.0.4

The Nexus S 4G is a CDMA fone. CDMA fones do not use sim cards. Also boost does not take out side esn's so to get it on boost u need to change the esn(its illegal). But Google is ur friend!

Because its like IMEI, you could use it to get past blocks, or in the case of esn, use it on another network that only allows there devices on it

Then you would wish you had a nexus s when icecream sandwich comes out and 5 months later you still haven't received the update. I do agree it is a sweet phone.

Thank you very much
But how do I apply this radio file to my phone? If there is a prerequisite step please direct me to a post that teach me how to do it
Do a little searching on the forums, but you effectively have to flash the CWM recovery to your phone so you could then flash over the mod's specified in that thread. I can't go into the whole specifics of doing that as there are TONS of threads on it.

Last time i checked the links on the thread are bad.....I unlocked my skyrocket to tmobile and tried dl but links were bad.......so Im on EDGE on the skyrocket but who cares SGS3 is beast ass phone even with the small ammount of roms and mods for it
Per the linked thread a few posts above, search for the blaze modem suggested. That should get you off the Edge network

Once you flash a tmobile modem to unlock the 4g, also try adding these settings to your build.prop
ro.ril.hsdpa=24
ro.ril.hsupa=6
ro.ril.hsxpa=5
ro.ril.gprsclass=10
Supposedly you should get even better data speeds. I cannot verify this. worth a shot.

Thanks for this information. I managed to get CvD-Nibbles 1.6 (Jelly Bean mod ROM) loaded and Blaze_4G_LB7_ICS_Radio_MOD with this settings. Works better now.
I also managed to load a couple T-Mobile ROM like Liquid_All-Star V5.5 and All-Star-Rom V2-1 with skyrocket kernel Sky_p3.2 and Blaze_4G_LB7_ICS_Radio_MOD plus the build.prop tweak to work great.

Can you just drop these lines anywhere in the build.prop or is there somewhere in there it specifically needs to go?

Hi, Im currently using LG g2x and am planning to move on to htc one s. After reading a few threads, it seems like you guys have great devs and support for the phone and few questions came up.
Im going to purchase wind mobile version of one s (same as t-mobile network).
Is t-mobile version compatible with any roms that says [S4]?? or are there special versions?
lastly, do you guys get major burn-in issues??
Thank you

If you know who nTelos is leasing time from, then you know which version (Sprint, Verizon, T-mobile, etc) you have....and then you can look in that device forum.
