According to Taylor Wimberly, who was correct on a few Moto X leaks, Motorola will be making the next Nexus device and it'll be completely different from the Moto X. We'll see.

 

And direct from Mr. Wimberly...

 

Motorola will release a Nexus smartphone in Q4 (that is not the Moto X).

 

It would be great if this is true and there's a version for Sprint (that's tri-band)...

 

If it really is coming Q4 we should see FCC filings in the near future. This could also be a sign that Android 5 is coming down the pike.

We are not going to see another nexus phone on Sprint. This has been discused at length.  Google only will sell unlocked and low priced handsets for GSM/UMTS/LTE operators.

what about the nexus on verizon? They can make it, but it is a limited market I think so there is no point

The Galaxy Nexus on both Sprint and Verizon are basically why they have given up on CDMA networks. The carriers made getting updates through to the devices such a process that they have decided to no longer deal with it.

Sorry, where is the nexus 4 on Verizon?

 

There isn't one.  Last nexus was the Galaxy Nexus, which is rather old at this point.  It used a really junky VIA CDMA baseband, to boot.

 

Avoid at all costs.

      Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.

      Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.

      Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
