Eh... its all white back. What's the point? The whole idea was all black. Is this a dumb way to try to imitate that other company phone?

Welcome and enjoy!!
Man, that white battery cover is sexy as hell. I so want it and can't seem to find it anywhere online.

I also got the white one for AT&T.
One thing you'll learn quickly is that with the official radio on the i9020a, the data speeds are capped in the ROM. You should probably read this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116884
You will need to unlock the bootloader and root the device in order to apply the fix but after that you will love the speeds you can get on your NS.

What radios are working well for you all? I haven't had a chance to read up on them yet.

From what i've read so far, the KB3 radio is the best for the AT&T version (i9020a)

One month later.
Do you guys regret paying full price now that the nexus s is officially on at&t. I did for a minute but then I was reminded that it have the white one so I don't regret.

4G or regular

I feel so stupid because some roms tell me I'm on a nexus s 4G and I know koodo doesn't have a 4G network but is there any way to tell ?

I don't quite understand what your question is?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA

The roms for nexus s 4g are only for the cdma sprint version of the phone. May work on other cdma carriers, i just don't know.

nexus s 4g gets no signal in germany, so that already answers your question. also check the label under the battery, would say D720 if it were a 4G. (guessing yours reads gt-9023 -> SLCD-screen)
if your roms show 4g-things, you're flashing the wrong stuff. ^^

Power off your phone. Hold volume + and press power, until you're at the fastboot screen.
You should see a screen like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If next to bootloader and baseband version the number starts with D720, you got a Nexus S 4G.

I have have it in my plan but I can't connect to AT&T only tmobile network because the phone roaming is not enable. That's what it says in network signal info app

If you have tmobile signal, your phone will not connect to att. I was in Vermont where there was no tmobile signal and phone stayed connected to att for 4 days

That's also based on roaming agreements, T-Mobile probably don't have any within that area which is why you can't connect to AT&T's network.

When I had sprint I can roam anytime I want by just zelecting the network that pops up

XLTE Experience?

Has anybody been able to experience the "double the speed" of Verizon's new network strategy?

Yes, there are some places I have been recently that have the higher throughput.

Yes. Ever since I received the new update I have noticed that my phone in certain areas here in North Carolina 3g and 1x jump like crazy.

I am sure that is the new XLTE. It's been in parts of Chicago, New York and LA on the Droids since the November OTA update, when the AWS bands were activated with a radio firmware update. 50/25 is much better than most people see on the old 700 Mhz LTE.

anyone know when upstate SC is gonna get xLTE? as a side-note when Seneca/Clemson got 4G LTE, (literally the day of) I was getting 24-28 mps down according to speed test. Now It is half of that (traffic). It was literally ridiculous how blazing fast it was.

HTC One M8 for Windows compatible with AT&T+T-Mobile LTE

First, keep in mind that nowadays Verizon devices are sold Unlocked
So according to the specs on Verizon's website, the Verizon One M8 for Windows is/should be compatible with T-Mobile and AT&T LTE frequencies (bands 13+4; 700c+1700MHz).
T-Mobile uses almost exclusively band 4, while it's AT&T's second largest.
Also, band 13 has a tiny bit of overlap with band 17 for downlink (AT&T's main frequency), so it /may/ pick up on that a bit.
Here's the frequency list on their site:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Knowing this, is anyone more likely to pick one of these up? I know I'm quite tempted.

May be if it didn't have that ugly Verizon logo.

Haha this is true, that definitely is off putting. I may just have to get one of those limited edition Xbox Dot View cases to go with it though XD

At least carrier bloat is kept to a minimum on Windows Phone and can actually be uninstalled without hackery, not just disabled.

Exactly. One thing I really like about my G3 Cat.6 is that 99% of the carrier bloat was uninstallable without modification.
Closer to iPhone where carriers can't add any junk whatsoever.

There is already an existing thread for talk regarding windows on the m8 here:
