I just refer back to the fact that P3Droid just received update 4.02 and that update as he states improved his connectivity.

Given that fact and rumors stating that the device is still in testing because of a bug....I would assume that maybe there is a connectivity issue with 4G LTE with the Nexus that they are attempting to work through before they release another phone on their network that has the same issue as every other device they have rushed through.

But then again that's my opinion....:)

My opinion is that of the 3 to 4 devices released or to be released over the holidays this year, this one one should have been targeted for the front of the firing order if'n they were looking to satisfy customer demands rather than attemting to define customer demands. If 4.0.1 was equal or better connectivity wise to RAZR and Rezound this phone shoulda been out in the same timeframe as those two and first outta all if at all possible.

In general though ALL device testing and quality goals in releasing a device should be the same for EVERY device period. Even better device testing and quality and even support should be left to the device manufacturer if you really aren't interested in being a device retailer anyhow as many claim of VZW. It seems quite clear though the only way VZW can legally control which devices are used on their network under the latest FCC rules is if they are the primary device retailer for all devices compatible with their network.

Ytram, I see you got snubbed. They thanked me and two others at the bottom, but I specifically told them to give credit to "Ytram at Android Forums".

Don't know what happened.

Playing with my husband's new Revo.
1)Holy crap that thing is bloated. I really didn't understand what the fuss was about bloat til now, my D2 is nothing compared to that. also, curse Bing. Ew.

2)I'm so pissed he has a new phone and I don't. :( This is the first time ever he has a newer phone than me lol. I thought for sure I'd have mine first. Sigh.

Hi

Been lurking for a few days, figured since I am getting no work done anyways might as well register.

My TB was stolen from my car 3 months ago.. Been stuck playing Klondike on my work BB for 3 months.

When will the pain end?

I'm thinking of trying it tonight after work, but the chatter at rootzwiki is full of bugs and fails.

I'll be sure to make a backup and then I'll see what happens.
 
Ok.. went to my local corporate Verizon store. I spoke to a salesman who knew about phones. Refreshing.

Do you remember I said one Razr was hot? It was again. I called him over to ask him why. He pointed up to spot lights to show me that they were making the phone run hot.

That explains that. Still, the other screen on that side weren't as hot, but they warm.

We got to talking. The razr is really nice but he told me to wait for the nexus. After talking a bit, he volunteered that he had actually help the European Nexus as well as the LTE one. He told me that a tester had come into the store looking for accessories.

I asked him if it felt cheap/plastic-y. He said no. It was a nice feel and the screen was amazing looking. He did say he liked the way the razr looked more business-y, with the angles and such but recommended I wait for the Nexus, which was in final testing and would be released soon.

My ears perked up when he said he actually held it. He said he was going to one. We're close.

OPEN LETTER TO VZW:

Please release this phone. I can't take this thread getting much bigger because it will become impossible for me to beat next time.

Thanks, bye.
Love,
Steven
