I went in store. I'm calling now. They close in 40 mins! NO ANSWER!!!!!
[EVO 4G General] plmiller0905:
Take a pic of the box too if you can

Best Buy is not doing it......... Just got off the phone with them. Gay boobs...
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Why that's enough proof right there man why does he need to convince you lol? He has the phone early it happens.
[EVO 4G General] jatoprieto:
Really? One pic not enough? ?? Its a smaller pic as I'm running out of battery
[EVO 4G General] snandlal:
Gay boobs? A Gay boob would actually call the store to check :-)

But seriously cool. Yes some folks get phones early. A while ago I got the palm Treo pro early from sprint before the official release.
[EVO 4G General] plmiller0905:
I know people do. But I was kinda skeptical because a lot of people been posting things basically saying that nobody will get it early and if they do sprint will not activate till Sunday. But nevertheless, I'm happy for the poster. :)

no fair
[EVO 4G General] :
Damn dude nice. A very trustworthy guy in my opinion. The Nexus S is a beast too. Im still deciding im even going to upgrade, my Evo is doing me well.

Sent from my......ummm...let me get back at'chya!
[EVO 4G General] rockypoo:
ok...im jealous....I want one!
[EVO 4G General] twin001:
Awesome, I'm still on the fence between this and the EVO3D.

Yes, some people do get phones early. We got my wife's EVO Shift 2 days before they were officially selling them from Best Buy. The lady asked if we were reward zone members and let us buy it early.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Its beast but not worth leaving my evo and using my upgrade imo. I'm holding off for something better the evo 3D.
[EVO 4G General] :
I want the Evo 3D also and the Galaxy SII but im still doubting upgrading my phone. The Evo is by far my best phone ever.

Sent from my......ummm...let me get back at'chya!
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Yes indeed! Its the best phone I've ever owned for sure. The evo is still kicking man and the dev support is just insane! I personally hate the way the evo 3D looks (so far) but maybe what I saw was a prototype idk.
[EVO 4G General] jatoprieto:
I played with the evo3D at ctia and I was impressed but its nothing I can't live without. Anyways if I change my mind, my line is still eligible since I used my wifes discount for this upgrade. And she is very happy with her evo
[EVO 4G General] :
I love the way it looks. And I could careless for a kickstand. I just hope the battery is the same size so i can transfer this extended one.

Sent from my......ummm...let me get back at'chya!
[EVO 4G General] herbthehammer:
Are you gonna glue the battery to the phone? The cover sure ain't gonna fit.
[EVO 4G General] tech7:
Is it worth it thoe?
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
I think he means just the battery itself and I'm sure he'd buy a cover that would fit. But to burst his bubble I believe the evo 3D has the same battery as the thunderbolt which is larger than the evo's battery.
[EVO 4G General] imex99:
After some use, let us know how you like it compared to the EVO, battery life, etc..... Nice score on the early phone!!!
[EVO 4G General] zookeeper525:
Nice, i think i'm gonna pass just like your wife though. I'm very happy with my evo. I just hope that sprint gets wimax in more places soon.
[EVO 4G General] stillblood:
I'll wait and see how locked the evo 3D is. Is hate it if I can't root, flash roms and kernels. Battery life has always been an issue for me. I'm a moderat user but work long hours. I have co workers that use GS's and don't have to change or charge their batts as much as I do.

I love CM7 so ill be happy with stock Android
[EVO 4G General] 12MaNy:
That oughta shut up the naysayers. Congrats jatoprieto. :)
[EVO 4G General] luvtorev:
happy cinco de mayo. What are you first impressions compared to the evo? and by the way, does it sit better in the pocket then the evo or are they both around the same size?

I was thinking about getting the nexus s because of it being a google phone and being able to get all the early upgrades....but with all the new dual cores out there and future ones, it gets really hard to get the nexus s (which by the way is fast enough for everyday use, but you know how we all are more, more and more).

What made you want to get the nexus s? Thanks for the input.
[EVO 4G General] Pao23:
What are the chances you could put the same image on Efren for both phones, turn the brightness to highest on both, and take a side by side pic?

Thanks so much if you can. You'll get a thanks from this Guy at least! :P
[EVO 4G General] zone23:
You know I hate to be captain obvious but how is this even remotely connected to the EVO? Its not even a EVO 3D. Doesn't XDA have a Nexus forum you can post in?
[EVO 4G General] rugedraw:
The first pic in the the thread was taken with an Evo. There you go. :D
[EVO 4G General] 12MaNy:
Because there are alot of Evo owners who are switching over to the Nexus...and alot of those people want an Evo/Nexus comparison.
[EVO 4G General] sirwhistle:
sprint

sprint corporate stores will give you the preordered phone before launch if you are connected with the store manager, that is a fact that i know because i have done it before so great job and enjoy the phone....
[EVO 4G General] zone23:
You guys are so funny, but seriously why don't you move this **** to the Nexus forum?

Here:

http://xdaforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=880
[EVO 4G General] imwillzillla:
If you've had any experience with the Samsung Epic. play around with it and give an honest take, is it worth the jump if you went from an Evo to the Epic, and decided it wasn't for you and went back to the Evo. To just wait for the 3d and not go to the Nexus?

Congrats on getting your phone early btw, Hope it's as boss as everyone thinks it will be. I bet you're having a time with it now too.
[EVO 4G General] plmiller0905:
Someone over on Phandroid Forums got got their Nexus S this morning. They lwent to the Glendale Illinois Sprint Store. He said that if Sprint has them in they are allowed to sell them early. I think I'm gonna stop by my local sprint store when i get off work and see if they'll sell me one if they have them in.
[EVO 4G General] spencer88:
My g/f pre-ordered the Nexus S. I'm going to call our local corporate store here in a few minutes to see if she can get it today.
[EVO 4G General] davpel:
But seriously, why don't you STFU. It has already been explained to you why this is relevant, but I'll try again since you obviously have a reading comprehension problem. The Nexus S represents the first serious challenge to the Evo, and there are many Evo users contemplating making a switch. That is why, in addition to this thread, there are several other threads in the Evo section dealing with the Nexus S (and the Evo 3D). A large number of us want to know whether it is worth using an upgrade on now, whether we should wait for the 3G or simply stick with the Evo. If you have a problem with this, or any other thread, feel free to ignore it.
[EVO 4G General] rugedraw:
C'mon, guys. A little respect for our devs. While I agree that many people here feel the need to wear the moderator cape more often than they should, let's not chase away the guys that make this place great with petty insults.
[EVO 4G General] lopezpm:
Whoah, take it easy. But hey Farmington Hills huh? I'm in Bingham Farms right now. 13 and Telegraph.
[EVO 4G General] davpel:
Yep. A fellow Evo user desperately seeking 4G coverage in the D!
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Yeah for real dude, he didn't deserve to be dissed like that. He puts in work on alot of roms rather you use them hes still a dev. If you want to hear more about the nexus s feel free to post in there it's more friendly than the evo forums lol. People are getting the nexus s early because that phone isn't that big of a deal. I personally consider it a downgrade from my evo but that's me. Enjoy your nexus!
[EVO 4G General] plmiller0905:
I'm at my sprint store and I can confirm they are selling the nexus..they're activating mine right now
[EVO 4G General] spencer88:
Do they have it on display or anything? I called our local corporate store and he said they won't sell them until the 8th, which is BS because more than one person has bought one so far and I'm pissed!
[EVO 4G General] 12MaNy:
How is it a downgrade?
[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
How the hell did u get it soo early? I payed for express shipping and i wonder if mine will come today? My order says backordered still today. Gonna be ticked if it comes tomorrow because ill be out of town for the day. Did it come fedex or ups?
[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
Will an evo battery work in the nexus? I got a 2000mAh id like to use.
[EVO 4G General] cor4twenty:
probably not seeing as how it's a samsung phone not htc
[EVO 4G General] plmiller0905:
Other than a poster it wasnt on display. I just walked up to the counter and said that one of lines was available for an upgrade and i asked if the Nexus was on sell yet. The manger was like well......let me see if we have any. And that was that..he activated it and I was out the door.

When I got to the car, I called up Bestbuy and cancelled my ordered :D:D:D:D
[EVO 4G General] davpel:
Did you have to purchase a $50 BB card to reserve your Nexus? That's what happened for in-store reserves and I'm wondering whether there is any way to switch now.
[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
Ill wait till mines shipped early next week. Gives devs more time to get a custom rom going.
[EVO 4G General] spencer88:
Wow. I've called every sprint store within a 30 mile radius and they all said the same thing, can't sell it until the 8th, even though they said they have them in stock. Apparently they can get into big trouble for doing that, so they don't make any exceptions. I can't believe you walked in and got one...just like that.
[EVO 4G General] Rem3Dy:
LOL. Any 2.3.4 based rom will work. There are already plenty in the nexus s development thread.
[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
As stated before a gsm rom wont work. Hasnt even been tested on the cdma versiom.
[EVO 4G General] ronnienyc:
Quick question: are the bottom buttons (Menu, Home, etc) less sensitive than the rest of the screen, leading to missed presses like the Epic?

Thanks.
[EVO 4G General] derekwilkinson:
trollolololol
[EVO 4G General] ryandoubleu:
Just picked mine up today.....

I called around everywhere, only to be told "5/8/11." I decided to give best buy a shot and now I have the phone. The buttons are pretty sensitive, the only thing that threw me off is Internal memory only (no microsd card)
[EVO 4G General] Rem3Dy:
The roms are interchangeable. Its only the kernel that differs which will eventually be merged together. On the 2.3.4 ota that is going out to the GSM models, it includes everything including wimax.
[EVO 4G General] derekwilkinson:
I preordered at Best Buy, I will call them and see if they let me pick it up...

Edit:

I called Best Buy, they said they had the Sprint Nexus S 4G in stock and that I could come get it. I went to go get it, and they said I couldn't until Sunday. WTF!??!?! :mad: :mad: :mad:
[EVO 4G General] ronnienyc:
Are you talking about the buttons at the bottom or the screen in general?

Thanks.
[EVO 4G General] Ryjabo:
You lucky bastards that got this phone, will you please tell me what the full retail off-contract price is that you saw at the Sprint stores? I just called one and he "thinks" it is $499

[EVO 4G General] 27s:
Lets put it this way....some corporate stores have lax policies. I know of a store that will sell a phone as soon as the correct price comes up in RMS...Not a good, or smart practice..

Congrats OP, I just returned to evo after going to blackberry for a while (biggest mistake ever!!), but the nexus s has piqued my interest!
[EVO 4G General] derekwilkinson:
From Android to Blackberry.... wtf?? :confused:
[EVO 4G General] markjr0586:
I work for Sprint and the outright price is $549.99. Also the phone only has 13.5 gb of memory left on the phone after all that is already is on it.

[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Really! Where's the other 3Gb? It can't be sprint bloatware :rolls eyes: the os doesn't take up much space! Lol
[EVO 4G General] lafester:
no, but the partition must be 2gb which includes space for app installs.

they really should have made these with 32gb since there is no option to expand.
[EVO 4G General] derekwilkinson:
13.5GB? wtf?
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Ahhh, got it!
[EVO 4G General] mlin:
Yeah I agree with you about the 32GB

[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
im wondering how often best buy updates your order status? as of this morning mine still says backordered. it launches tomorrow but there can be no shipping on a sunday. i will call them again monday morning and see where it is.

anybody else receive theirs yet from a best buy order?
[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
16gb of storage is enough for me as i usually deal with only 8gb.
[EVO 4G General] piscesjoey:
I know right, but you should look on Craigslist, especially here in the Delaware/Philly/South Jersey area, & see how many people post up ads trying to trade there Evos or Epics for Blackberrys, especially Bolds. You would be surprised.

2.3.4 doesn't have gsm/cdma versions, it's set up to handle both on the same rom. Just don't make the mistake I saw one guy make and accidentally flash a gsm radio image.
[EVO 4G General] Navyet3:
Why did you choose the Nexus S over the Evo 3D coming out in just a month?

[EVO 4G General] josh995:
Yeah... I know... the evo was taking up too much of my time so I got rid of it for a blackberry... but realized the huge mistake I made, so am now back to the evo. :)
[EVO 4G General] BrianDigital:
well its most likely a microsd card in there just no "convenient" way to get at it
[EVO 4G General] detusueno:
played with a regular nexus s today and i got to admit that its noticeably smoother than the evo. not in all things but if you pay around with the launcher, the zoom in effect is buttery, buttery smooth. you can even put on a live wallpaper and it'll stay perfectly smooth. little things are slight smoother too, like pulling down the status bar, etc. seems like a cool device but the definition on the screen isn't as good when you look at it close.
[EVO 4G General] imex99:
Does the nexus have slight lag like the evo when you start 4g?

Swyped from my HTC Evo with Eternal Prophecy 5.5 ROM.

[EVO 4G General] cwbristow@cox.net:
I had a non-smart sony several yeard ago,

Then a sanyo,

Followed by a lg rumor,

Then, with much research,

The Touch Pro 2 was my first smartphone,

Which truely showed usefull benefits over non-smart phones, for me anyways,

I currently have an Evo4g,

Which I will keep until a ppc comes along with substantially increased usable functionability,

Not just cause 'it's the newest' or minimally higher specs,

But, substantial improvements.

Ps, 3D is and will always be a gimic
[EVO 4G General] mlin:
I guess it's a matter of opinion. I happen to think the evo3d is a significant upgrade over the evo regardless of the 3d. Better screen, processor, gpu, camera, UI, etc. 3d movies are awesome, gimick or not and I'm sure 3d games will be pretty cool as well.

Tapa tapa tapa
[EVO 4G General] animal7296:
Like this says, gimmick or no I am going to use the sh!t out of the 3D when I get the evo 3d.

[EVO 4G General] BrianDigital:
so sorry cell phone elitest, i for one have not spent countless hours observe cell phones. All the window mobile (including the samsung one) have internal micro sd that your can not get to without taking apart the phone.

and lol to you take it easy on the cell phone stuff and go see your family they miss u
[EVO 4G General] derekwilkinson:
no problem :p
[EVO 4G General] JUST2SUAVE:
But the Evo you have to take apart as well to get to the SD card.
[EVO 4G General] BonkyMoon:
Here's a Nexus S teardown. There is no microsd card in there; it's all internal flash, same as with the iphone and Touch Diamond and other phones of that sort. It would have cost more to put an actual microsd card in there; much cheaper to just surface-mount a flash chip.

http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Nexus-S-Teardown/4365/1
[EVO 4G General] BrianDigital:
the windows mobile 7 phones have an internal microsd card, that the only way to get at you have take the phone apart aside just pulling the battery
[EVO 4G General] Brutus2TheMax:
Love my Nexus S 4G! Got it this morning at 10am on the dot and the battery had 30% on it. Been playing with it all day today and it just hit 10%. Screen resolution is pixley when looks at it very close but besides that GORGEOUS. Noticeably faster than my EVO that I gave to my mother for mother's day. (Yes I will still be browsing these forums!) Not very excited about rooting my Nexus as there's really no easy way like the EVO forums have!
[EVO 4G General] blane73:
So I went to the Sprint store 2day, thinking I was going to buy this phone. I compared the screen to my evo. I couldn't bring myself to buy the nexus because of what I saw. Just like all the other Sprint Samsung phones there is this weird green tint. It can't be just me that notices this. It just killed it for me. The reviews say the nexus screen has a better picture but compared to the whites on the evo I just don't see how. I'm very disappointed because I wanted a faster and slightly smaller phone.
[EVO 4G General] gharris040604:
I got an evo for sale

[EVO 4G General] BrianDigital:
W

Its simple and like two cmd lines to root the nexus
[EVO 4G General] swaze:
Im hoping all Nexus S owners know how to find that info, because if what im reading is correct Sprint intends to patch the software so that tethering requires the $29.99. So im hoping they all know to root in order to get the free tethering.
[EVO 4G General] cdudeman:
Android central has a Nexus s 4g forum and has instructions on how to root.

Just in case anyone was looking for a good forum just for the 4g nexus.

[EVO 4G General] awesomeindeed:
Just picked mine up at my local Best Buy, they didn't even come close to selling out, they have tons of them. Very nice phone. I think it's going to be my daily and my Evo will be relegated to backup duty.
[EVO 4G General] Skitzi:
Are you guys buying them at out of contract price? Or is there some way to get a better price?
[EVO 4G General] Brutus2TheMax:

Battery is ridiculous with this phone. I've dropped only 3% since I got it several hours ago and I've been messing with it ever since. It had a 30% charge when I picked it up.
[EVO 4G General] babyschmoof:
My local Spring reseller offered me the phone today. He showed me the phone on Friday, but told me it could not be turned on and activated until today.
[EVO 4G General] gatordpt:
Hearing these stories about the battery life on the nexus is making me think about picking one up for myself!

[ROM] PhaZer 0.4 Optimus T

The focus of this ROM was to put together something for my LG-P509 that was functional and stable yet still had enough tweaks to make it fast and fun.
