Verizon? Att?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
This is the international version. You can buy it unlocked and use it on AT&T, but the U.S. Variants haven't been announced.

This is a phone discussion forum, not a carrier forum. I see no reason why you should post this here. Try the off-topic forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=261

Why does everybody assume that the big two will get it first? The Vibrant was released first on T-Mobile, it might just be that case this time around too.

correct me if i'm wrong but wasn't T-Mobile USA just bought by AT&T? just sayin'
You think they're going to let an 80 million subscriber company swallow a 30 million one? And plus, that doesn't get in the way of phone releases. There's still a year to go: plenty of time to sell a variant of the SGSII on T-Mo.

Alright so I was off on the subscriber numbers. That still doesn't change the fact that this deal right now is most likely not going to happen. As the articles you posted say, removing T-Mo from the picture would relieve the pressure the carrier puts on the others with its low prices not to mention a significant amount of people that are against the acquisition, including several members of the FCC.
EDIT- Fixed a few grammatical errors.

You are right. do not know why you are being harassed here
TMo will be doing its own business for at least a year.
It will release its own variant of SGS2. I would not be surprised if ATT again has a unique to it shape.

Why bother waiting for a contract-chaining, feature-deprived, update-delayed, support-deficient, bloat-filled, subsidized version? The international version is 100% compatible with AT&T.

Oh I see your point. But "att already has it" is not correct, speaking your language it WILL have it on May 1st.
And to answer your "why bother question" - because it will be 3.5x cheaper subsidized, it can be freely swapped at AT&T if anything is wrong with the set, and it will carry a one year warranty. Some people prefer this to having no bloatware .
And I HOPE since there is no more exclusivity to iPhone, AT&T won't be maiming features of its android phones.
That said, if I hear that AT&T is releasing at end of July, I will probably buy an import
Wow... quite descriptive.
Ultimately, you will enjoy this device more as how Samsung envisioned it. Although, if you cannot afford the international rates, then the ATT / TMO versions will not differ to much aside from the Software. That can always be modified later on.
who you want to make next nexus?come on guyz,vote on
I would choose HTC as long as they keep it completely unlocked. They make great phones but it would be a shame if they lock it or they make us use their unlock method.
i have contacted a moderator to move it
HTC

plz also vote on top of the page.
Probably HTC as long as it's unlocked.
Though Samsung did a great job with the S2.
SE phones, while they have great potential, usually end up lacking. Not to mention it's a Sony product, high priced, ok to good quality.
With my experience with the Motorola Droids, I've hated them.
Either Ford or KFC. Probably KFC.
SonyEricsson.
I'd say Samsung but they have the current Nexus. Let someone else have a go now, and give the Nexus their personal touch.

Who in there right mind would choose motorola? Do i even need to explain why?
I picked Samsung for one reason: Super AMOLED Plus. I absolutely love the screen on my Infuse 4G. However, if that was not an option, it'd be HTC all the way.

Yes you do. I have a Motorola. Not even the locked bootloader is an obstacle, and a Nexus wouldn't be locked anyway.

I need about 3 - 4 unlock_code.bins. I want to see if I can find a pattern. Also, PM me your IMEI number (or ESN if it doesnt have an IMEI). I want to see if I can find a pattern or anything. Don't get your hopes up. Just wanna see if I can find something matching or not.
Also, if you are willing to post your unlock token, MAKE SURE TO PM ME, DO NOT PUBLICLY TYPE YOUR IMEI/ESN!!
UPDATE: I also need the token info when you are the "fastboot oem get_identifier_token" command. I see somewhat of a relation with it.

Here's mine.
just an update. ive been busy today with school work. I made 4 unlock code tokens from my Amaze and I will compare it with the token Identifier and see if i can find anything. ill try a bit now before i go to sleep
minor update: The unlock_code.bin are all the same. Now I'm looking for a repetition between the identifiers. This will take some time.
Here's mine.
Thanks for your time fellas

Out of curiosity, what are you using to view the .bin files?
This is probably useless, but the HTC Aria has the same Hboot ver and this phone and it can be unlocked via Revolutionary's tool.

NOW verizon made a comment in one of the replies, they won't unlock due to software clitches on the phone. Do you think MAYBE? after the update they MIGHT? let unlock again.Just a little food for thought??
I hope your right, maybe that's the reason for a newer hboot with this update
Can you attach the response? Copy pasta?

Why after so many months, there are still no custom roms being made for this phone? Is it because of the second screen or because no one cares enough to do one?

I figured being similar to the g4 we wouldn't have issues getting a rom from a dev. I read a post from someone saying they were able to get a g4 rom to flash on the v10.

My thoughts exactly
The lack of development for this phone is the main reason I wish I didn't get this phone.
It's interesting that there isn't much development on this phone considering its one that seems to appeal to power users with Microsd support, battery removal and the secondary screen.
Well, I would think someone would have to figure out root first since the tmobile version is the only one with root so far.
People seem to be trying but it's slow going!
