Im used to always having to buy sprint phones and I've had the nexus S 4G and Galaxy nexus 4G both for sprint and roms were completely separate from the GSM/unlocked versions. My question is does the US version D820 use the same roms and everything as the D821 version. My nexus 5 from sprint is In my mailbox and I'm on a 16 hour drive home from from a wedding. But I plan to unlock and root the min that box is opened. Thanks in advance

since google no longer sells the unlocked gsm samsung nexus, does anyone think the value will possibly go up on Dealextreme?
I don't think so. Since the launch of nexus 4, the only wayvi can see someone paying more for the GN is if he desperately craves LTE. So in US it might go up, but in other parts of the world, very slim chance

I thought GNex is still only a HSPA+ device, same as the Nexus 4. Or am I wrong?

I purchased a Nexus 5 and I know that it doesn't support the VZW lte band. My question is, doesn't the Nexus 5 have the same SoC as the LG G2? If so, does anyone think they can get the LG G2 radio flash for the VZW version to work on the Nexus 5 to make it work with VZW?
It may be possible but may brick your phone. But this is a message I got when I put in my Sim card. Not sure if it helps at all.

I found this and have been making posts on this thread. Someone else has the same idea, but no one has seemed to have tried it yet.

I was wondering if the us and international Roms and kernels are all going to be able to be flashed? I am currently on Sprint and I remember with the galaxy nexus we had to have our own section.

Apart of the radio chip (LTE bands support) all Nexus 5 are the same afaik, so i guess all roms are universaly useable on all devices
Yeah I know that but you active a different radio with Sprint.

There are 2 versions of the Nexus 5. The one used in North America (D820) and the one used in the rest of the world (D821). Whether or not ROMs for one will be usable on the other I don't know, but it doesn't matter if you're using AT&T, Sprint, or T-Mobile in NA because it's all the same phone.

That's because the Sprint version of the GNex was different than the GSM version sold on the Play Store for T-Mobile and AT&T.

This guy is correct. Unlike the GNex, the N5s being sold for AT&T, T-Mobile, and Sprint are all the exact same device.
Thanks everybody as that was a big concern are we going to have 2 different forums then?

So on my nexus 4 i could tether everywhere and anywhere and not get charged. Now i got the nexus 5 and its asking me for a tethering plan??
Does it have something to do with the rom? I had a custom one on the nexus4 here im on stock.

Which carrier / country? You may need to update a .db file if you're trying to tether on TMO prepaid.

I am thinking of dropping my grandfathered unlimited data from AT&T and moving to T-Mobile. Is this the forums for the T-Mobile version of the Nexus 5 or all Nexus 5's.

all nexus 5, theres no tmobile nexus 5 xda forums.
All nexus 5's are the same whether you buy it at the T-Mobile store, Sprint store, Google Play or Best Buy. All roms work, all kernels work. No need for more than one forum.

To clarify, there are 2 models of the Nexus 5. D820 for North America and D821 for Rest of the world.
Same ROMs, Same Kernels, NOT same radios.
