New Nexus S For AT&T
Hello,
Has anyone rooted, installed a custom ROM on the newly released Nexus S on AT&T yet.
I have the unlocked T-Mobile Nexus S rooted, and running a custom ROM, and was wondering if the AT&T branded one will root, and be able to accept the same custom ROM's that are used on the T-Mobile model.
Thank you in advance for any answers!
Matt
It's already up for sale? Link?
Its a nexus s you don't worry about root ....that's the point of the phone

I want a link!
It should be the same as the T-Mobile one, the only difference is the radio.

Negri Electronics? It's from another thread. I've never heard of them before. Let us know if you get one from them.

Got mine today. Everything seems fine.. Of coarse, no 720p. The camera for pictures is amazing thou. Best I've seen so far. I have a bad feeling about the HSPA cap on upload. I'm getting anywhere from 1500 to 2500 on the download which is good but the upload, I can't get more than 400. I've tested like 50 times with the same results. Of coarse, it can be fixed with a root and NEW ROM but the ROM out of the box may have this disabled. (Stupid!) Other than that, screen seems pretty good. For some reason it's not really poppin like I hoped but it's definitly super AMOLED. My GOD this thing is a fingerprint magnet. If it had a fingerprint reader, it would be THE ENTIRE PHONE! Maybe I should have picked up the ugly ass white one.. hmm. If you have any questions, ask away...

Mine will be here on thursday. I just upgraded to the tethering plan so ATT can' say **** to me for using tethering now. Never used it before but now I have that option.
This thing is gonna be sweet.
Sweet. It's a real nice device. The flash in the stock browser is WAY faster and smoother than the atrix and definitly faster than the thunderbolt. I tried the thunderbolt and for some reason, the HTC broswer not only runs dog slow but it renders flash images very poorly. Two things I'm pissed with on the nexus s... You can't view animated GIF's or pics thru the messaging app (MMS animated pics/GIFF'S) and you can't intergrate facebook contacts..? Are they for real with this?? LOL I was able to do both on my old dell streak... Yea, I know... I can get handsent to get the GIFF MMS support back but wanted to stay stock android which is part of the reason why I picked up the nexus s. Other than that, amazing device.
That is even more of a reason I paid big bucks for it. I got rid of Facebook and don't use mms that much.
I use YM to chat w/ the wife and others.

Hoping this comes out in the US by the end of the month. I was considering an Inspire 4G but I'll go for a Nexus if I have a choice.
Any pics of this on AT&T and with 3G?
this is great news, hopefully the more people we get the more gets contributed to the nexus s. ^________^!
Its coming here to Rogers which is same 3g as att on April 14

Looks like they are back now. Btw, which one did you buy - white or black? How much did you pay in total? Pls dont forget to share your experience once you get it.
Enjoy
What can I do with it since I just replaced it with the Samsung Exhibit 2 4G due to it being 4G and everything else? I can't stand that its just there looking at me all the time lol
Would you think about selling it? Because I would totally buy it. I have a powerskin case for the lucky hd2 that gets me as the user haha
Sent from my I897 using XDA App
Mine is also retired and just sits there, saying "Flash me, Flash me". But I already gave him ICS Beta 10. What else does he want??!!!
The HD2 is the best smartphone I've ever owned. Flash, flash, flash!
UNFORTUNATELY I sold it for $75..$75 damn dollars!!! .. but i really needed the money so yeah .. I had already flashed android to it and really couldn't find the perfect one rom that ran it smoothly... like 60FPS smooth , but it was the very best phone I ever owned in my life! I miss it alot though.. maybe il buy it back some day?
$75 is very less.. I can't even find any Hd2 less than 150$ in ebay
I know it was in really good condition... I went to a pawn shop to see how much they would give me for it... and they said $40 ... like its nothing but oh well they lost some good money on that phone since all they had was the old t-mobile phones

Ah! I know exactly how you feel about the digitizer! The first one I had, had the same problem and later I thought it had to do with the from and ended up flashing a incorrect radio :/... by any chance are you with T-Mobile? You can ask for a replacement that's what I did

I'm selling mine for 150
Turn it into a robot ? (see: mashable.com/2010/04/28/repurpose-electronics)
So, I would have gotten the N4, I have been waiting months now and now am kind of going to give up.
I can get a S2x for $280 Canadian all in, new and paid for..
I would love to wait for the n4 to be instock, I would get it after my big trip to asia that I will require a good mobile internet device. I also find i like to have a couple of spare batteries when I go boating for gps or hiking and other things like this where it is nice to have a backup full battery for emergency use.
I am also very hard on phones as I use them for work, i have to whip it out constantly rain or shine, and they get dropped often, so I will be upgrading from a very tough device, 9700 blackberry that has falled on cement at least 50 times or more, also been ran over by a car, dropped in water twice, and used in wet weather constantly.
I just want a fast and cheap device, either phone will cover that, but I wonder what one will be the toughest ?
Yeah I don't know why Google is encouraging the closed system phone (You can't open the battery or anything), that's what I hate about the iPhone.
The Nexus 4 is still a good phone, but if you go hiking or on trips frequently, I wouldn't suggest it as your battery may die when you need it the most.
How ever, it's not hard to carry an old phone with you (A Brickphone), to use when your Nexus 4 dies.
You can find those old crappy phones for like $15 on Craigslist
If you often drop your phone then I'd avoid the Nexus 4 if I were you!
Battery life isn't great either. And the camera sucks imho. And storage is tight. I'm starting to have some regrets about mine now if I'm perfectly honest.
Camera doesn't suck

Get this phone man.. Unless you expect EVERY feature and function to be absolutely perfect, there isn't a phone in existence without a small flaw or two.

Did some tests yesterday comparing against friends HTC One X, Samsung Galaxy S3 and my old Xperia arc S. My Nexus 4 camera was by far the worst of the bunch, especially indoor shots. Outside in bright conditions it's not bad. I've taken a lot of pictures with mine now and am generally unhappy with the quality. Focus seems to be a real problem (hopefully this can be rectified with a s/w fix) but detail is lacking and images look washed out in comparison with other devices.
The 2011 Xperia arc S camera blows the Nexus 4 one away. I guess I was spoilt with that device.
I waited from nov 13 to 29 for mine and love it.

You can get those for like $180 with coupons, head over to redflagdeals.
So, this morning I got email saying nexus 4 in stock, i made my order and it says will ship in 1-2 weeks ! Sweet, not I have to return this S2 when it comes in the mail or sell the nexus 4 when I decide what one is better. YES
PS it says Canada only - STOKED - cause I am will speak out 711 (rogers) and so I will be getting LTE out of this on unlimited browsing for $10 a month too ! LOL KOODO and all the other rip off mobile providers and sellers in Canada, including the iphone, I don't even need to jailbreak, unlock or have your logo on my phone
I'm starting to like the Nexus 4's camera.

Also in Canada here, currently stuck on Mobilicity and my i717 cant even see the network for the life of me.
Wanted the N4 but waiting for it to ship out hurts. I think I might go back to my S2X.
Whats this about it being on sale for $280? i saw it at koodo for $250.
You tested speakout for LTE speeds, confirmed?

Android 4.2 for some reason isnt as battery friendly as 4.1. Battery life gets better with a few cycles and some of the kernels offer great battery life ( matrix kernel).

Hello I'm new to this thread as I've been a HTC user forever.
I just got my note 3 last night and it seems that I have low signal every where in Los Angeles. I only have 1 or 2 bars. I didn't have this issue with my HTC Evo which always had 5 bars..
I don't think it's Verizon network but the phone. Does any one else experience this issue? Is there a fix to get better signal?
Sent from my SM-N900V using xda app-developers app
I haven't had signal issues with my note, but from all the reading on these forums. If you are having signal issues and your on the latest radios it's probably a hardware issue. Seems like there are some phones made in China and some from Korea with quality differences between them. Wait for others to chime in, but you might want to contact Verizon and get another phone sent.

How can you check if yours was made in China or Korea?
I have the same problem, as do many. And it got way worse after the most recent update. See if you can get a replacement.

After spending an hour on the phone with tech support they suggested I go in and exchange my sim card so I did. Well that didn't change the low signal. Does anyone know a fix for this?
Sent from my SM-N900V using xda app-developers app
Just to add my $0.02.. I had the exact same problem and I purchased original my phone close to release day. It didn't matter what I did, but I would drop signal or always have terrible signal even though I was close to a tower. I also had a wiggling home key as well. Eventually my proximity sensor died on the phone, which at that point I had enough with it. I went in and returned it under warranty after having it for a month and a half. The new phone I got now actually has an earlier build then my original (under battery it's dated), but I have no issues with it at all. It was factory re-certified, but it runs like a champ and has none of the signal problems my original did. So I think there is definitely some truth to the idea that some have better builds than others based on where they were manufactured. I would return yours without a hesitation under the manufactures warranty. Hope that helps!
Thanks for helping at this point I've returned it 3 times in 10 days. I've got two different build dates and all of them still have low signal issue and calls dropping.
Hi
I am looking at purchasing the MotoX Style and customising it using Moto Maker. However, I have never owned a Motorola phone before. Am I able to look at the phones before purchasing and try out the customisation 'look and feel' anywhere in the UK (i.e. the plastic or wood backs)?
Thanks
I was thinking exact same thing. I have never even seen let alone held a moto device in the last 2 years.

I'm just wondering if we will even get it in the UK? Spoke to both O2 and CPW and neither know if they will get it.
I really hope this comes to the UK, really want it

Yeah MotoMaker will come to the UK hence they had the conference in London and also its also on the Motorrola UK website.
Whether or not Mobile Carriers will sell it straight away is a different story.
