Is it just me or are these claims of verizon claiming galaxy nexus exclusivity on their site wrong? I can't find the word exclusive anywhere on their galaxy nexus page or on any other part of the site that refers to the galaxy nexus for that matter...

or am I missing something?
There's a thread right.......here

Im thinking about the samsung galaxy s2 mini. I have no idea where i saw this. But does anyone think it'll come to T-mobile?
wrong forum = fail.
Hi, I just buy a Nexus I9250, but i didn't read this little thing Samsung SA-I9250.
Whats the diference???
I'd like to know too... Amazon is now selling the SA-I9250: "Samsung Galaxy Nexus SA-I9250 Unlocked Cellphone--International Warranty (Silver)".
So where did you buy yours? Is its build yakju?
Thanks,
C.
anyone know what is the difference between both of them?
thanks!
I'm a Galaxy S user and I am currently thinking of buying a Galaxy Nexus (the international GSM model).
Is there anything I should know about the phone before I buy it? For example, what are "maguro", "takju" and "yakju"? Should I buy a specific model? Will there be a newer batch of models coming out soon with improvements? I remember one guy showing me a picture of his Galaxy S which had version 2 written in the settings somewhere (apparently it was Samsung's way of differentiating between when the phones were made). Is it like that with the Galaxy Nexus?
Sorry if the questions seem dumb. I'd appreciate the help.

1) maguro is the device name of the GSM nexus, toro is verizon CDMA and toroplus is sprint
yakju is the main official build of ICS for the GSM nexus. Takju is the same, except google wallet is baked in.
you can take any GSM phone and always flash takju or yakju and be just fine.
2) maybe, but i dont know
Thanks for the quick reply! It helped!
There won't be any Galaxy Nexus with improvements until the next Nexus device, no worries.
I just made the jump from the SGS1 to the Nexus. It is much snappier. I have the International GSM model and flashing roms is easy enough. As posted before, I don't think there is a new "batch" coming out, except in Oct/Nov when a new nexus will be announced or released. What I did was go to a verizon store and play with it to see if you like it. I thought it would be a big difference in the screen compared to my captivate but not too much. Still I have to get used to the size and weight of it.
I am going to be buying a GSM Galaxy Nexus in the not so distant future, I was looking at Hyperion batteries and I came along this. In the titles it says "Google Galaxy Nexus" but in the description it says it will only work with the Verizon and Sprint version and not the international version. Am I correct in assuming that the Google version and international version are different? Does anyone know for sure? Thanks
the GSM version is different than the Verizon and Sprint models so they wouldnt work. the international is the same as the one sold in the play store.

The Verizon and Sprint are the same (rather really really close). The "Google version" is the international version and this battery will not work with it.
^damn typed this out and forgot about it haha
Ok, thanks for the replies. It is a little confusing since on the page it does say it works with the Google Galaxy Nexus but not the International version.
There is an AT&T forum for the S2 but not a T-Mobile one it appears. I did a CTRL+F for UNLOCK and did not hit anything on the forum sections on the S2 except for Canadian carriers.
Searching hits a lot of stuff marked old & outdated.
So what do you use to root then unlock a Galaxy S II SGH-T989 made in 2013 for T-Mobile USA?
Makes no difference, carrier is irrelevant; forums are based on phone model numbers. Your thread belongs in that forum regardless. I've asked mods to move it.
1. If we go to here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/
Why can this forum not be found uinsg CTRL+F?
On what page is T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989?
2. When we finally find the forum for T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989
Why is does CTRL+F not hit the word unlock
which should point to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36417242&postcount=145
Should it not be one of the most important stickies on any forum discussing T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989
