I am wondering if a Nexus S (i9020) works for Wind/Mobilicity, should it also work for Bell/Virgin/7-11 network?
If not, can it be unlocked to work with Bell/Virgin too?
TIA

No. There's 2 models supporting different 3G frequencies. The one for Big 3 is i9020A.

Thanks. So which Nexus S model supports all of them ( Wind/Mobilicity and Bell/Virgin)? I noticed some Nexus S adv. from Kijiji support all.

Basically the Nexus S from Wind/Mobilicity should be the AWS one. That will work on Bell/Rogers/Telus but on 2G speeds. I know this because I had one back in the day.

That being said you need the i9023:http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_google_nexus_s_i9023-3910.php
