Uverse App Does Not Work On Verizon GNEX?

I have my GNEX on Verizon. I have been trying to get the AT&T Uverse App to work since I downloaded it. Regardless of whether I am connecting via wi-fi, 4G or 3G, I cannot get it to work. I have uninstalled and reinstalled to see if it was corrupted, but that failed as well.
Attached is a screenshot of the error (Unable to connect to Server). Is anyone else having issues with the Uverse App? Is this being blocked by Verizon?
The app worked on my Blackberry (course the BB was on AT&T).
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Could be due to the fact that you don't show having any service, nor are you connected to wifi...

Here is another screen shot with full wi-fi.....
....when I have 4G or 3G bars showing, I get the same message as my original post. I am able to do every other task imaginable on either of the three data connections except for the Uverse app.

Well apparently there is a compatibility issue with ICS which is causing the connection error. I am sure AT&T will not be to hard-pressed to update their app until they are ready to offer an ICS device.....oh well....

any workarounds yet for this perhaps?

I'm having the exact same issue. I really hate AT&T.

Same....
I am having the SAME exact problem. Use to work fine on my Droid Charge, then I upgraded now I get the same thing all of you are getting. :-<

They haven't even updated their freaking app since August... They're pathetic.

It's AT&T. Their corporate physiology is just do the bare minimum. They built an app, some people can use it, that's good enough for them. Same goes for their network.
BTW: I am able to get to my DVR via the web browser:
http://uversetv.att.yahoo.com/wra/uverse/

I called att today about this. They put me through to the app maker who in turn blamed att. First they hung up on me after they told me it won't work on every phone and I called them lazy for not wanting to update it for new phones. The second time they blamed att. Idk...

I think it's an ICS issue. It worked fine on my non-at&t Nexus One on 2.3. I think there's a thread on the official u-verse forum about it.

[Q][REQ?] 3G style icon for 4G

Hey Guys,
I've been on ICS for awhile now, but I just switched back to Gingerbread. I must say I do like GB more (for now anyway).
Anyway one thing that really bugs me is the 4G icon on all the Gingerbread ROMs. I am currently running Blazer v4.0 and I was wondering how I could make the 4G icon be more like the 3G icon. By this I mean that instead of having the 4G icon like the WiFi icon, it is just like the 3G icon with the two arrows, much like the 4G icon is on the HTC EVO.
Please let me know if this mod exists (I searched without luck) or if it is possible. I would love to see this.
Thank you in advance.

You could go and edit the framework-res.apk yourself if you're up for that.
Edit: Actually, the 4g icons are in the settings.apk, sorry about that.
If you want I could try and whip out some 4g icons for you if you give me more of an idea of what you'd like. I'd still keep some way to show the signal strength though, as that should be kept and not exactly like the 3g icons that just show activity.

Well you see I live in an area were 4G is really strong so the signal strength doesn't really matter to me
I just like the look of the 3G icons much more with the up and down arrows that light up when they are in use.
I would love to create it myself, but unfortunately I don't have much knowledge when it comes to anything beyond the creation of the icons. I may however try to mess around with the settings apk to see if I could figure it out.
So ya, what I really would like is an icon just like the 3G icon, but that says 4G instead. Sort of like on Verizon phones: http://goo.gl/xOrsa

So I made some icons of how I imagine this to be. If anyone could help me figure out how to use them I would be very grateful.

I'm trying to think because I've only used 4G some in different places that have it not near me, does our phone change the icon when it is in use? Obviously it stops sleeping if it was, but does it flash or anything?

Actually I just connected to the almost nonexistent 4G at my house that I never use and it seems to stay static.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk

Pretty sure it stays the same. I think on of the main issues would be getting the up and down arrows to light up when in use. I guess both arrows could be off when its sleeping and on when its not? I really would like to have it be just like 3G though. I wobder if this may be something that could be developed...

Losing connectivity (3g data) randomly

My HTC One X keeps having issues and I'm looking forward to future updates that will hopefully fix them.
I am losing 3g/2g data connectivity every now and then. When it happens I have tried pinging 8.8.8.8 (google dns) and get a "host unreachable... 9".
Airplane mode or toggling data doesn't help. I need to restart the phone to get back 3g data.
I am On O2. I frequently use the widget 2g3g onOff to toggle 2g/3g
Is there any way to troubleshoot the connectivity to try and find out the root cause?
cheers

Others had this issue. If you have an unbranded phone. Try the 1.29.401.12 ruu this included a new radio which might fix your problem.

It's a branded and unrooted HTC One X so a different ROM isn't an option at the moment.
Would be interested in further troubleshooting like traceroute, ifconfig (is not present on android?) and etc

I know you've probably already got over this or perhaps even switched to a new device, but I found an application that really helps with that problem.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dazbradbury.restartConnections&hl=en
I face this problem at least four or five times every single day but I am afraid to go to HTC about this since my phone is rooted and with a custom ROM on it and I cannot actually revert to Ice Cream Sandwich because I updated my HBOOT to 1.31 and I cannot revert to 1.28 since I have a S-ON device.
I have tried several custom ROMs and the one with least network/signal problems was the stock ICS ROM, whereas custom ones seem to have a lot more bugs and issues with them, but I guess that's expected. Battery life is much better on stock ROMs, though, and overall performance. I am hoping Jelly Bean will be released for my HTC_J15, though.

My connectivity issue was resolved with the last update from HTC.
thank for taking the time posting the info. If I ever get networking problems again then I'll check out the app.

Oh you're most welcome, mate. Your thread appeared as I was Googling the problem and trying to find a permanent solution for it.
I've also heard that the Radio version could be a factor in the network strength.
These are two screen shots of my network info:

I don't really understand the whole dB thing because I am not into networking. lol
What pisses me off is that the device drops data connection while I am in the same spot and haven't moved. When I am outside and drops it, I keep convincing myself that perhaps this spot has no signal or something, but then again other people are using their devices just fine, and I used my BlackBerry in those same spots just fine a month and a half ago!

CM10 LTE/3G signal thingy.

So, you know how the lte->3g handoff sucks on aosp, well, examine these photos

Notice that it says lte. I'm not in a lte zone but lte works under this setting.
Now notice the network mode? That option is the option when you use the lte widget. It DOESNT say evdo. So possibly peoples lte-> elements are stemming from the fact that this mode doesn't have evdo. Just a theory. Comments? I noticed when I lost lte and didn't get 3g during this setting.

But that option is there for TouchWiz too. The aosp issue has something to do with an incorrect apn or something like that

But there evdo on touchwiz. Promise. The evdo is missing

Sorry, dont quite understand what you're trying to get at here?

He thinks a graphical mistake is our issue. I highly doubt such a thing would pass our many brilliant devs. Default for CM is for it to say that since the base is used for all of our alternates (att..T-Mobile..Verizon)

IDK. I have mine set to LTE/CDMA/EVDO, and I get 3G fine when I lose 4G. I'm using CM10.1. In fact, when I started this post, was on 3G. I'm now on 4G. The handoff was seamless.
Edit: I realized you meant it was an issue with using the widget, so I added the LTE toggle and turned LTE off then back on. My Network Mode screen still shows LTE/CDMA/EVDO and still connects to 3G. Perhaps there's a bug somewhere, but I don't think it's with the LTE widget.
In case it helps, I don't notice any extra battery usage over LTE compared to 3G, so I just leave LTE on all the time. I've never had an issue doing that. Perhaps you could, too, and the toggle widget bug won't be an issue.

The only issues I ever have is going back to 4g after losing it. Going from 4g to 3g is fine, 3g to 4g is a bit off.

GPS Location not working T-Mobile S6 Edge!

******Update******
So I have my replacement phone and my old S6 Edge was messed up! I posted a comment in another thread about slowdown and terrible jank and stuff. This new one I just received is quick. There's some animation issues, but for the most part it's a night and day difference between my old one and this new one. Anyway along with that I used GPS Test app and compared the two. The new one didn't lose "Fix" for over 5 minutes. The old S6 Edge lost it 17 times in 5 minutes.
It appears to have been a hardware issue.
So my GPS is messed up! Anyone else having this issue?

This is not ideal. The S6 Edge is broken... at least mine is. Sometimes it will work flawlessly for miles, then have a hick up here and there. Other times it's a mess.

Awesome, I'll give it a try now, but before I do, did you restore the phone or set it up as a new phone?

i always just start off as a new phone

Factory Reset and Restore along with wiping cache partition. All failed. I'm still not getting GPS.
I called T-Mobile and they sent me a new GS6 Edge NDA. Should be here today, if this is also broken, I'm unfortunately gonna leave the S6. I heavily rely on GPS. It's more important to me than a camera. Yes I'm hinting at the M9 lol, but even then I'm not entirely sure I want that phone either.
Dammit Samsung/T-Mobile
We went through some basic troubleshooting and I am on "high accuracy mode" and location services enabled, etc.
Anyway here's more screenshots on my way to work, first pic shows it not working, it found me for a second when I got to "Pecos" then it found me completely using GPS, then lost me again. The last image is me walking to work. I have a 10 minute walk from where I park in Downtown Denver to work. The entire walk it was searching for GPS. That's the last image.

My co-worker with a S5 introduced me to an App called "GPS Test" and he was able to get 18 GPS sites, I literally have none. So something is definitely wrong with this one. I will go home and test it out again on the new phone and see if there's an improvement.

Have you found any solution to ur gps issue? If you have sorted up, please let us know. My GPS status app also could not find any satellites
