No such thing as a galaxy s2 4g.
The Bell version is 4g.

It calls itself 4G but is still 3.5G. The 4G iteration implements LTE, which is a different tech than HSPA(+). In Canada, LTE just means its going to be maybe a bit faster and definitely a bit(lot) more expensive. At the beginning, if you are in an LTE coverage area, you will notice less of a gap between theoretical max speed and actual speed, as there will be only a handful of users competing for bandwidth.
Edit: I do believe that the LTE iteration will not be the i9100, but something else (i910x), rendering it effectively a different phone altogether.

I have a at&t nexus s 3g unlocked for
Tmobile running Android 2.3.4 smoothly but i'm wondering if I can unlock this to 4g? This was the case when I had a htc hd 2 I upgraded the kernel and rooted Android into it. It then would have an "H" on the top and ran alot faster. Could I do the same to the nexus s?

Nexus S does not have the hardware radios needed for HSPA+ 4G. Sorry.

Damn that sucks so what phone would you recommend for a gsm (Tmobile) user. Its actually for my gf she likes
Samsung brand
Super amoled screen
Front facing camera
4g speeds
Fast processor
I'm considering the Samsung galaxy S 4g but i just want to know all our options. Even a good at&t phone would suffice if it had the listed things

This will be the version that is supposed to be compatible with T-Mobile USA.

If some people think there is lag on the Note with the 1.4Ghz Exynos they'll really think it lags with the 1.5Ghz Snapdragon.

Which means it uses Qualcomm S3 which means will likely support T-Mobile band. Great.

I doubt it'll be a problem if you root and get rid of the bloats and after developers get rid of Carrier IQ.

Unless your in an LTE market that this Korean Note will work on and you have an Unlimited data plan there's no reason to get it. The 1.5Ghz Snapdragon is slower than the 1.4Ghz Exynos in the current non-LTE Note. It's slower than the 1.2Ghz Exynos in the SGS2 and people have commented on how the AT&T Samsung Galaxy Skyrocket which also uses the 1.5Ghz Snapdragon isn't as snappy as the SGS2.
Hold on you know what we should try first, the modem file. Lol

I know but Im looking at the fact that Im a t-mobile user with 3 phones on a family plan and Wish my note worked on t-mobile 4g. And I didn't have to run to at&t for service.

Cute Touche' Does anyone Know a Korean a website in English they have run into for ordering from the USA
As far as the snapdragon being slow, remember I have tried both chips and unless you are a gamer it is not that noticeable of an issue especially, when new roms start rolling out.
Has anybody found out what bands this new Galaxy Note from Korea will support I can't find anything.
I heard all bands, 1700 aswell.

"With its massive 5.3” screen, LTE capable speeds and Android 2.3, the ultra portable Samsung Galaxy Note easily extends smartphone capabilities."
Lol... what are LTE capable speeds?
1.4 Ghz Exynos processor. It is a N7000.
I believe this is the lte Qualcomm snapdragon version. Same as at&t. Not the n7000.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA App
This isn't a snapdragon in its specs it says 1.4 ghz dual not 1.5 which already been confirmed to be the snapdragon. Reading more into the specs this version of the n7000 will work perfect for those who use T-Mobile/simple mobile 4g/3g speeds. So if you are a T-Mobile costumer and considering getting the sg note att or international this deserve a close look you lose the intergraded home button but keep the 1.4 exynos processor while gaining the 4g speeds
Well seems like the pnly difference is the 4 buttons. Everything else matches with international vetsion.
Telus didnt even listed it as LTE phone so fingers crossed for LTE....

No. It's the same SGH-i717 that AT&T is getting, not the GT-N7000. There is no Exynos.
Well you should check details section. It does say Exynos.

And you should realize that cut and paste marketing pages are notoriously inaccurate. Telus is getting the SGH-i717.
Sammy says it's shopping the new processor around to other handset manufacturers (like Meizu), noting that the Exynos 4 Quad is pin-to-pin compatible with the Exynos 4 Dual (the brains behind the Galaxy S II and Note), which gives designers the ability to update product designs with minimal costs.

EDIT: Could it be that T-mo, Sprint, and Verizon were waiting for this? Should be interesting to see what is revealed May 3.
T-Mo's version is almost surely going to be a rebadged I717.
As to a Note Plus - I'd have to look through the I9100 update4 defconfigs again but no evidence of a Note Plus. However there's clear evidence of an S2 Plus - https://github.com/Entropy512/kernel_galaxys2_ics/blob/master/arch/arm/configs/s2plus_defconfig and also that one of the upcoming devices (identified as c1 - which USED to be the identifier for the Galaxy S II, but that was renamed to u1 with ICS) is for Verizon - https://github.com/Entropy512/kernel_galaxys2_ics/blob/master/arch/arm/configs/c1vzw_00_defconfig
Possible, I s'pose.
Didn't a few carriers receive Galaxy S "plus" iterations as recently as late 2011?

Nope, just altered versions. SGH-I777 and SPH-D710 were marketed as the Galaxy S II, the GT-I9100P was marketed as "Galaxy S II NFC" or maybe just as Galaxy S II.
LTE-enabled Qualcomm-based mangled devices were also released and had the Galaxy S II name applied:
SGH-I727 (Skyrocket)
SGH-T989 (not LTE, but 42 Mbps HSPA+ enabled - T-Mobile S II)
SGH-I717 (AT&T Note)
Nothing has been marketed as an "S II Plus" yet.
i wouldn't doubt it. its hard trying to stay updated with their latest devices. what have so many multiple versions? just create a phone that works around globe on all carriers. done.

North American carriers suck.
Well it could be the rumored Galaxy Journal, which I wouldn't mind since my work account is with Sprint, although carrying 2 Notes (one on Straight Talk and another on Sprint) would be weird.

Well, Samsung just announced a Galaxy S Advance, to replace their Galaxy S Plus.

Default has my Samsung Galaxy Note II phone no support for 4G LTE.
But, wandering maybe with the Omni ROM the 4G LTE may work??? Or is my antenna not suitable for 4G LTE?

No. The Infineon XMM626x doesn't support LTE - period, end of story.
That's why all of the LTE-capable Note2 variants have a completely different radio chipset (and hence different Omni builds)
