Should I switch to Nexus Z from Desire Z? - Nexus S General

So basically I can get an amazing plan with a nexus s. Should I go for it, or staying with the desire z is better?
Thanks a lot.
Ps, do u know if nexus s has cm radio?

Nexus Z is indeed a great device! I would recommend the Optimus Nexus though since it has a quad core processor

I've just come from the original HTC Desire to my Nexus S, I'm still locked into a great contract, so bought the phone cash, the Nexus absolutely walks all over my old Desire and the Z isn't that much better. You'll not be disappointed, Ice Cream Sandwich runs beautifully on here as well!

No it was not necessary, I was typing pretty fast on my phone, didnt realize.
Look at the thanks and status meter before talking.

Nexus to Evo?

Hey everyone,
I have a nexus one and my question is should I get an evo 4g?
I have some cloudy issues though:
Is it too big?
I am in Canada so would it work on Rogers?
Is it as fast if not faster than the nexus?
Which is better- stock vs. HTC Sense?
Which has the better specs?
These are my questions, please give some answers
Thanks

Rogers uses sim cards so no, you won't be able to use it.

Honestly, In my opinion the Nexus One is actually the better phone. The size, build quality, the fact that it gets updates faster, the processor is the same as the Evo. Many specs for the Evo and Nexus are the same, and the Evo is great, but I honestly think the Nexus One is the better phone.

Doesn't Rogers have a decent Android line up?
You should wait to see if any of the new Motorola phones will come out for Rogers, unless you prefer HTC over Moto.
Does the Desire HD work on Rogers?

I would for sure stay with an n1. Evo is just kinda big and flashy. Wait for the dual cores to come out. Just not a galaxy samsung dual core. I can't stand samsung phones

Evo is too big for Canadians and most others from foreign countries with little hands.
N1 and Evo are too similar to decide a winner. Wait for dual cores.

Soon to be nexus s owner..

As the title implies, I will be acquiring a nexus s soon. I currently have an epic 4g I'm trading even to this girl that hates touchscreens lol
Anywho, I love my epic. I'm sure ill love the nexus s also. I was hoping to get some input as to where this community is at the developing stage. What some of you guys are most excited about, and what kind of performance and experience you guys are getting from your modded nexus'.
Cheers!

Welcome buddy. Pretty much the development is great. Just about every rom here is straight aosp and has no issues lol. Just make sure u read before flashing because not all roms are nexus s and nexus s 4g compatible.

I was wondering about that lol. I noticed there are 2 development forums now for both the GSM and cdma versions so it should be relatively easy. I just have to translate what I know from the epic to the ns4g as I'm sure they're somewhat similar when it comes to flashing them.

I doubt I will lol like I said I love this phone. The keyboard is awesome. But I'd rather give it up for a thinner phone I can put a case on and it won't feel like my old HTC tytn2. Also I'm sure the ns4g will be getting ice cream sandwich relatively quick. Also, where's cyonogen mod at with cm7 on the ns4g?

Cm7 is at nightly 95 for the past few days. Someone hacked something. I forget what but hasn't got anew nightly. However it's very stable.

CM7 is super stable and is at a code freeze so only small bug fixes are being made. The website for the Linux kernel source was hacked and until that has been verified no files were harmed no new nightlies can be compiled. Nightly 95 is the latest and is awesome.

So you are getting it good I love mine been developing for it the day I bought it and its much more stable modded than galaxy phones when you begin hacking away at it.

Memory is 512mb. Some of that 512 is allocated to the GPU for performance.

Are you sure its the GPS that has issues or is it the compass? There is a known issue with the compass on the Nexus S. Not sure when it'll be addressed, but Samsung/Google are definitely aware.

Would you

Trade your Mytouch 4G for a G2X?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
I wouldn't, but I know someone who has. He'll chime in here soon.
Depends on what you're looking for. I enjoy the G2x a little more because of the slightly bigger screen and much better external speaker quality. If you like Sense and the abundance of RAM then I'd stick with the MT4G.

Here... just lower your density to 200 and boom its a sensation.minus faster connections and helluva lot better camera.
Speaker sucks ass though.brightness is ****--looks washed out.
Yes sensation is better,but my touch still a great phone.
Cm7 sucks on sensation.

Proud HTC Desire User here i still have mines..
yep once a desire owner flashed the day lights out of the poor phone i was always flashing every custom roms for desire.
It was good to have the Desire HD (Had the same specs, board, etc as the Xperia play) so most of the time the developers in the xperia play section were porting ICS from the desire hd.
I was using Desire HD just a couple of weeks ago. Apart from weak battery was very pleased with it. Wanted to buy HTC device, but built-in battery scared me off.
I had the original desire I loved the track pad on it, it would be cool if the button on the Galaxy s3 was a track pad would be easier to navigate

Ex Desire HD user here - well almost. The American AT&T variant was called the Inspire. Same ROMs worked for both phones (with a minor audio driver change that ROM cooks would bake in).
Still have my desire , rooted , s-off just getting round to flashing jelly bean.
Used it the other day still a fantastic phone and the quality feel in the hands is far better than any of my other phones.
I'll never get rid of it.
