gsm requires a sim slot.. where do you stick the sim card on the ns4g? hope you didn't buy the ns4g thinking you could use it on gsm networks.

no NOT at all lol its like using an am only radio to pick up fm freq's. its just the same way that tmo and att 3g are different
No it will never work. However the nexus s is now released on sprint, And that model will work on Verizon.
does the sprint nexus use a SIM card? im not familiar with there network, and will the verizon 4G work on the sprint nexus s ?
No no no.
None of the Nexus S models, nit even the sprint one, will work on Verizon.

I was just downtown Niagara Falls and I am with Rogers and my NS says 4G at the top. I thought all GSM Nexus S phones could only get 3G

Odd. I have never experienced this look up the bands Rogers uses maybe they have a 4g band compatible with the phone I know GSM ns uses 850 1900 2100 3g bands for hsdpa hsupa

Just googled it you are getting 3.5G hspa+ which is capable of 21mbps data speeds. Luckily you Canadians get way higher speeds than we do in the states because networks are oc12 standard. Hope this answers your ?

I didn't think the Nexus S other than Sprint's could get 4G?
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk
its just fake 4G, they are calling their HSPA network which is 3.5G and just showing it as "4G".
Hi possibly a silly question but my buddy has a nexus s 4g he is thinking of getting rid of. My question is..is there any way of getting it to work on att?
Thanks for any help

The 4G version is CDMA.
AT&T is GSM

I have a VZW nexus with boot loader unlocked and rooted, I changed numbers and got a new sim but it won't activate. After making it to the VZW store the rep said my rooting the device was blocking activation. Any ideas what to do?
Verizon nexus? You mean galaxy nexus but thats CDMA if im correct no sim slot

does your phone look like this?

This is the wrong forum for it. I have never used vzw but I believe the sim card maybe for their 4g lte.

Indeed the sim is intended for the 4g lte radio it has no gsm capabilities so ita cdma

I've got an AT&T straight talk sim in my i9020t and can only get an edge connection, from what I can tell it looks like I need a Tmobile sim. I read about an SII that you could flash a radio that would make it work though, anyone know anything about this? I'd rather try flashing some before I order a new sim.
I've heard that too about the GSII, but I'm afraid the situation is different for the nexus s. Your I9020T's 3g radio will only work on tmobiles frequencies; the hardware's reception capabilities cannot be changed by flashing something.
Now, I'm not familiar with the sim you currently have in, BUT, if that network uses the same frequencies as T-Mobile, all you need to do is adjust your APN's.
I'd look up the frequencies for you, but I'm off to class..
Let my know how it goes/what you find!

I'm pretty sure that he's right about being stuck on the edge with at&t. 3g frequency only on tmobile. You would need a pentaband phone like the gnex to get both carriers 3g or hpsa+

Yep, at&t 3g frequencies are not the same as T-Mobile frequencies. You definitely need a T-Mobile sim for your i9020T
