[Q] Questions about my Korean Version Nexus S - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

OKay,
I purchased a Korean Version Nexus S and it came with ICS.
When I turn on the phone it has the Google name and a unlocked lock.
(On EDGE to save battery power)

Since I did buy this second hand, I'm afraid to access banking or other financial materials on the phone... I'm wondering would it be best for security reasons to reinstall ICS myself or leave it be because what I have right now is safe to use?
Should I just install the stock GB and wait for the ICS OTA update that is suppose to be coming soon?
Would my Korean Nexus S get the OTA update over here in the US (T-Mobile)?

[Q] Verizon Caller ID?

I got this message on my One today.
Isn't this an already built in feature of Android 4.4? I noticed that this feature wasn't working for me on a call I got today. Did Verizon disable it to enable their own version to sell to us?

I just got this too. I think it already does it, and Verizon is trying to get more money.

The application goes out to public databases and matches numbers not in your contact list. I'm not aware of this being available in stock Android, but I also wouldn't pay for it. Download "Who Are You" from the Play Store.

What will happen after the beta program closes (18jan)?

Hey guys,
Does anyone knows what will happen after the beta program ends on January 18?
The notices say:
"9. What happens if Galaxy Beta Program terms end?
You will receive the message about the official software update after Galaxy Beta Program ends. You need to install the official software in order to use Samsung Electronics service."
Does that mean we'll go straight to 6.0 official or will they put us back on 5.1.1?
I've got the answer!

Idol 3 restored system but how update

Hi everyone recenlty i restored the stock system from 6045i(works with all models etc.6045y,6045k,6045o) but how i can receive latest update 5.0.2-7srn-uen0 or can someone make backup and upload it
because i try with system updates but no greater software
unfortunately alcacrap releases updates by region and it seems to me they prefer branded devices (ie. western european unbranded idol 3 devices didn't get any update for months, while branded ones in eastern europe were already on january security patch level in early february), so you can't do anything.

Got a fake j7 pro, how do I get the most out of it?

I received a fake j7 pro as a gift from my grandmother, she bought on the streets thinking it was a good deal. I don't want to tell it was not and already accepted the fake phone, so now I'm trying to get the most out of it.
The specs of the phone are here

the phone has a custom 6.1 android version, and I thought flashing an older version to get rid of the potential threat of having this one, and to run smoothly. A quick search tells me to go jellybean.
Should I flash another rom in this device? Can you recommend any? Thank you!

Pleae help me how to solve this issue
This is a carrier version, so bootloader cannot be unlocked and there is no workaround.
I made the same mistake of purchasing the phone from a reseller and ended up with a locked bootloader. What's worse is that the battery has expanded with a few months and the back panel is coming off.
First and last time I ever purchase a phone from a reseller.
