Recently went to a yard sale and found a Nexus S for sale $5 Guy said his kid messed it up that it didn't turn on. I thought to my self what the heck and bought it when I got home I went on XDA. It was a simple thing all I had to do was access boot screen and do a reset. Working great..
But now i have a question to any who read this. Now so far all I know is that is Sprint Nexus S but I see there is also a 4g I know its a dumb question but where would I find it. Now my new mission for the week is finding out before I start flashing Roms. So far I have a Galaxy 2, a Nexus S, hopefully soon Galaxy 4 and the phone that started my addition Galaxy S Captivate.
Any one have any good ROM,apps, and kernal recommendations would appreciate.

the sprint one is the NS4G
slim and air kernel ran good on mine
call sprint and check the ESN
if it's bad you still got a killer deal for a
MP3 player/15gig memory stick
:good:

Why don't you go into system settings, about phone will tell you the phone model. I doubt flashing wrong one will jack it up though, just wont boot. The ns4g is CDMA network and ns is gsm, other than that very similar.

Anyone have a vzw note 3 then pick up a g2?what did you think? How's the reception? I'm getting irritated with dropped data ect.
Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk
I came from a GS3 when they were running the free after instant rebate promo.
The G2 does have a more reliable signal, possibly a little stronger too.
I dont know if it is a big enough reason to switch...it could depend on your location, etc.
It is a fantastic phone though. I dont have the urge to crack flash either with all the UI customization possible witb stock.
Did they patch loki yet? I'm missing aosp and I meant to say I have a note 3. I have a nexus 7 just seems the note and 7 are too close in size. How's battery life?

If you are willing to trade a Note 3 for an LG G2, contact me.

I did the opposite where I had the G2 and dumped it for a Note 3. If I'm being completely honest, I think the Note 3 is a better overall phone with more advantages. But of course it depends how you will use your phone.
I owned the G2 for a month, so I think I had a pretty decent sample size to give my opinion.

I honestly don't think they are even comparable, because of the size and the S Pen.
Sent from my LG G2 using xda app-developers app
It mostly depends on what you want to do with it. I have the original Note on ATT. I decided on the G2 over the N3 because of all the nonsense Samsung is getting into with not allowing us to flash and customize OUR devices. Since you are on Verizon, the vise is even tighter on you. Seems us GSM guys have it a little easier. Good luck with your decision.
Is this another Note 3 vs G2 comparison thread?
Aren't people getting tired of comparison threads getting locked?

I don't think you are up to date. The Verizon Note 3 has a bootloader exploit, custom recovery and custom roms already. In short, it's good to go.

I wouldn't call safe strap an bootloader exploit as much as a work around. Still no way to allow custom kernels

LG makes good phones but I likes samsung. Both are great phones. It would be a personal preference.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk
I would take the G2, biggee battery and faster cpu I believe. ..but no storage slot for sdcards, so make sure it has enough storage for your needs
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk
your gonna get 100 posts of different views, always happens. print out the specs on both. list what you like don't like with the s4. and see which phone will work best for the way you use it. neither is a bad phone. also, if possible you have to get that phone in your hands to play with. :good:
assume you also are checking the lg forum
If you thinking about LG phone why don't you buy Nexus 5?
I've had bad experiences with lg android phones in the past..but it looks like they've stepped up their game lately

I had the LG G and absolutely love it. I wanted the LG G2 during my upgrade, but they're out of it so settled for the HTC One. Wife has the S4.
I personally liked the G2, but I just couldnt get used to the buttons on the back so I stuck with my S4.
So at work we have recently been informed that all our phones are going to be switched to Mitel (a Sprint network based MVNO). We were all going to be given S3s unless we opted to pay for an upgrade or of pocket...The upside being we own the phone if we upgrade. I opted to upgrade to the S4, but at the time they were saying "Sprint, Sprint, Sprint" so I didn't realize we were going to be on a virtually unheard of MVNO. I've rooted every single phone I've had since I bought my Google G1 back in the day, & I love the level of control it gives me. Now I'm looking around and seeing absolutely zero information about phones on Mitel....so naturally, I'm a bit concerned. I know I can root it, but am I stuck on stock touch wiz? Or is this the point at which I get to dabble in pretending to be a developer? What kind of challenges am I looking at here? thanks in advance!

Unless they are branded I kind of assume they will still be using sprint phone's. Therefore not much will change. I could be totally wrong though lol.
Edit: Phone's are cheap, plans are not. http://www.mitelmobile.com/mitel-plans-and-pricing/
Well they have mitel branding on them from the pictures, but I guess I'll be finding out tomorrow when I get it!
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Well, I thought I ought to give an update. I got the phone today, and it is a Sprint S4. Not even any Mitel branding...as far as I can tell, all the same exact phone that sprint and it.... Booklets inside even refer you to Sprint's website. It's activated but data isn't working yet. Not sure what is up with that. If it's not working tomorrow, I'm supposed to call support.

Hi all.. I've had my nexus 4 for quite some time now and loved it..but it's time to upgrade.
Before I got the N4 I was always upgrading to the newest phone but this one stuck with me. A bit too long lol.
I am debating between the s5 and g3.. Will be on t mobile.
Have any of you switched from the n4 to either? Opinions?
Thanks

Had chance to test both of them,.. Lg G3 i would choose,.. Regardless if u r planning to use original rom or custom rom. It feels more confident than Samsung, and another thing, spare parts are around 30% cheaper, at least in my country.

s5 has plenty of features but google is more of a "clean" phone
I feel like I am getting biased opinions in this matter because the nexus four is part LG so that's why your all choosing the LG G3

But I'm not sure if I want another nexus phone.. I skipped out on the n5. My brother in law has one and it doesn't seem like anything special.

Alright, understandable. Whatever choice you make, I'm sure it will be the right one. Many good devices out there.

Visited a store today..
Both phones feel very solid. I liked the display on the g3 more but what I hated about it is the volume rocker is on the back of the phone...dumbest thing ever IMO.

I just bought my first Android device coming from a long line of Windows phones. I've handled my friends Galaxy S4s and saw the S5 in store. I ended up purchasing the G3. I gotta say its a slick device.

Have you gotten used to the buttons on the back? I feel like I'll hate that feature so much.

They took a little to get used to, but they don't bother me. I kinda like how the sides are smooth.
MAY i recommend oppo find 7a if you crave more battery life OR the find7 if you want high performance and more sharp screen on expense of less battery life ? in either case its removable so no worries , its a solid build which kicks lg g3's ass
