Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

Ew I get -109 dbm at my house. I can make/receive calls fine, but it's in this crappie mini valley dead zone. My BFs parents get no reception with AT&T.

the lower the dBm the better, not really sure what asu is

i think anything around ~80 is considered a pretty good signal, and iirc around -50 is theoretically perfect signal

The absolute lowest mine ever was on a good day was 83. 93-111 or so was my norm. Mind you, it said that even when I had no 3G reception with grey bars.

I found there is a new leak of the Nexus radio: My Droid World Forums

Here is a direct link for ya so you don't have to sign up for MDW: http://www.mydroidfiles.com/download...dios_btldr.zip

Be careful when flashing -- not 100% sure of the origin of the file though.

Just flashed it. Booting up now...

I don't see any immediate changes based on the About Phone / Status numbers.

Edit: The Open Signal app is showing SIGNIFICANTLY stronger LTE signal. I don't know whether to trust that or not yet. Other forum posts seems to be reporting good improvements for some. But some seem to be experiencing a worse signal reading. Only time will truly tell.

I am not hoping for any better signal numbers so much as voice and data connection a few more miles away from cell sites than I can get currently. As I pointed out earlier in the thread my wifes charge had 4g connection in a fringe 4g area here where my GN couldn't hold 4g and had to revert to 3g which has real good coverage everywhere here.

Well one project left to go this semester! Too bad my laptop is cranky and i can't work on it for a while... :( I really need a new one.

We also don't have a tv so I'm not sure what to do for the next few hours. No other homework to do and my new books haven't arrived...

Download a book ? Play a game?
 
Hmmm lets see how this goes...

So mine got worse...from -107 to -113 with the radio AND stuck on grey reception so I can't do much...
 
How is everyone elses MTP file transfers? It took me like 2 hours yesterday to transfer 7GB of audiobooks. Then late last night it took almost 50 minutes to transfer 1GB.

What is everyone elses speeds when doing this?

Also if anyone can still help with reboot-from-recover.p (that you turned into a .bak file) I would truly, truly appreciate helping out.

Any guesses on how long it takes to upload a 23 minute video to youtube?

Anyone? Anyone?

Right now I'm at 4% with 322 minutes left LOL

Recorded my trip, with the Nexus, of Lights on the Lake with my friend.

I'm thinking it was either Razor or Stigy that gave me the link to the lifehacker site (sorry I can't remember who exactly) but I'd give you a kiss and buy you a drink if I could. It was great to be in the store with just phone rather than a big notebook today.

Hmm, Lifehacker links are usually my thing (well, really just posting links in general :D), but I can't seem to recall the one you're mentioning. Still, I'll take the drink anyway! Haha. ;)

Nice. :) Seems like people are getting mixed results so far, I'll wait a little until they're more stable and proven.
