Hi all,
Does anyone know if the Nexus one phones sold in Israel as new (i.e -
from stores) are the same hardware as the development phones sold
directly from Google?
I want to buy such a phone, but Google won't ship to Israel. The
development phones have unlockable boot loader, and I want to make
sure that the phones I buy will have that too. Any ideas how to make
sure I get the right phone?
Thanks,
Shachar
No experience with the ones sold in Israel, got mine in the states (second
hand).
From what I know all (or at least most) android phones are breakable, it's a
question of availability of the radio firmware. The most problematic one I know
is the sony erricson one, but even that is breakable for a small price.
There are several variations in hardware though. Older ones use the amoled
screen while newer ones use slcd. There are also two variations in the states
with different 3g bands. I think that only pelephone may make a difference
regarding preferred channels.
My guess is that they are gray imports from probably the states. I'm guessing
that the unbranded phones rather than the att / t-mobile / rogers ones (there
are also European versions)
