Hello
So yesterday I bought the GN.
Untill now since Im coming from the N1 the improvements are worth the money
I havent done anything yet, its pure stock with the bootloader locked and I havent received yet the 4.0.2 update.
I keep the n1 turn on with other phone number
One thing I noticed is that my GN when its on standby sometimes the blue icon turns gray and so I become disconnect from the google servers,
However on my n1 rooted with cyanogen this thing doesnt happen....
So basically I receive first my emails and chat first on the n1 that the GN even when they are connected on the same wifi network.
The thing is that this symptom happens also on my galaxy tab 10.1 with honeycomb 3.2
Basically if I put the 3 devices together, the n1, gn and the tab, the first that receives notifications is the n1
Anyone knows why?
Jesus Im writing this from the gn in landscape mode and the keyboard has a laggggg...wtf...
Thanks

I'm completely new to Android and received my unlocked GSM Nexus today. So some details on what I did once I got the phone cause you guys will more than likely know better than me:
I rooted and then tried to OTA update to jellybean. Didn't work. Got the Android with the red exclamation mark. Downloaded a Jellybean ROM and flashed that. My friend tried to MMS me a pic from his T-Mobile SGS2. Just shows up as a blank white square. Played with the APN and added a few. Asked my sister (iPhone) to send me a pic and it works, but still can't receive my friends. Haven't asked anyone else yet to send me a pic. Could anyone please help?

You should tell us the ROM that way if someone else is on it they might know if that's a bug. Also, most of these JB ROMs are still in early to moderate developmental stages and may have bugs. I know with Jelly Belly that I am running there is a new build every other day almost so check the thread for your ROM to see if there is a newer build available. I am not having a MMS problem that I know of, I recieved one today and one yesterday.

I have noticed the same thing as jkim3691. It only happens with only 2 of my friends so far (both on android, one with a Samsung galaxy S III and the other and older android). I have attached an image of what is happening. Just like jkim3691 said, you get a white square, and there's no options if you hold it or anything. I have also attached a screenshot of my system. The thing is I don't remember if it started happening after my JB update or it was also on ICS.
My phone is completely stock, no rooting, nothing, just straight outta Google Play store and all my updates have been OTA.
stock too
Stock jellybean. GSM Unlocked Galaxy Nexus on ATT.
There has to be a solution to this crap.
Yeah I get those as well on some pics... meh
-Google
Okay so i have a T-Mobile S4 it is now running 4.3, The phone was rooted and running the Google Edition custom rom on 4.2.2 when this issues started.
When i first rooted the phone and installed the Google Rom it worked fine, i could send pix to iphone and receive them from iphone (yes ive tested it with many iphone users and its always the same outcome) however a few weeks ago they stopped receiving any pic text i would send and i would receive theirs as well. I have tried this on wi-fi and just on my cellular network and it still doesnt work.
So last night i thought it might be due to the face i need to update to 4.3, so i un-root my phone, factory reset it so its back to 100% stock, update to 4.3 and im still having the same issue. It works fine with anyone using a Android device, but 90% of my friends and my GF have iphone so this is starting to piss me off...
any info would really help me out. and i didnt a search but nothing to the effect of my problem came up...
The problem is not with your phone, its because apple sucks.

Let me start off first by saying that I am S-Off through Sunshine.
I have an AT&T branded HTC One M8, which I recently converted the the Developer's Edition M8 by changing the CID and flashing the DE Recovery and Nandroid Backup.
I did this for two reasons: Tired of waiting on AT&T to release updates (Was still on 4.4.2 when I converted), and to get rid of bloatware while also having the ability to get OTAs.
Now my issue at the moment, which seemed to arise(although cant say for sure it was because of this) when I updated to DE 4.4.4. As far as I can tell right now, two apps - Snapchat, and Google Play, will not connect or send or receive data when LTE is active. Chrome, Instagram and a few other apps have no problem loading and sending and receiving data. If I go into Mobile Data settings, and switch from "GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto" to "GSM/WCMDA auto" everything will work fine. So the problem is solely with LTE. If any other information needs to be provided to troubleshoot feel free to ask.
Also, this happens with full bars, and with the LTE up and down arrows lighting up.
If you figure this out please let me know. I am experiencing the same issue. I called At&t and they were at a loss too. My browser works fine. My reddit app, my bank's app, and just about everything else doesn't work at all. And, the issue is only on LTE. So, we have the exact same problem. I really would appreciate help on this. I use my phone to find houses on emergency calls. If I don't have internet it makes it difficult.
The crazy part is the LTE works. I just doesn't work with apps.
I'm in UK with a unlocked HTC10 from carphone warehouse, on the ThreeUK network.
Recently I've noticed that I no longer connect to 4g other than a few very rare occasions.
The only changes,
1. full update to the latest OS
2. I removed the sim card and put it into an old phone, when I re-inserted it into the HTC I got "network updates" which I accepted.
Things I have done after verifying mobile network/data is set to AUTO
1. delete all APN
2. reset APN to details available on my carrier website
3. Settings >backup+reset>network settings reset.
The odd thing is very occasionally it does decide it likes LTE and it works fine.. but its rare.. even if I do a reboot or toggle airplane mode.... the second I remove the sim card and put it into my old phone I have LTE, so it really isn't a signal issue.
My network have suggested a factory reset, but I am not rooted and have game data among other things that are impossible to backup. so at this stage I would rather not .
totally flummoxed by this one!!! any help or suggestions appreciated...

possible solutions:
- get new sim card
- hard reset done inside stock recovery

Thanks.
I got a bit of time today, so did a factory reset.. same error still.. and again I put the sim in my old phone and bang 4g straight away..
in the HTC if I leave it in a strong signal position for several minutes I can see 4g occasionally pop up, but if I walk away from the window it goes again, even though I get 4g through the whole house on my old phone, and did on the htc when I first got it.
Actually thinking theres a hardware fault now.. bit of a strange one.. but looks like i'll have to return the phone tomorrow. we can try a different sim first in the shop
Just an update.
I spoke several times to HTC, one ran through basic resets with me no change (hardly surprising as I've already done a hard reset). this agent "sent through" details for return item for fix.. but these took days to arrive so in the meanwhile thinking they were lost I phoned again.
This agent was going to send me a email with lots of settings changes to try... this email never arrived....
Now since then I've done a lot of research online, and found that there are quite a few sites saying the htc10 on the new software has LTE issues, poor signal dropping signal etc.. IE it is my error, so why did htc support not know this? I wonder if its generic media articles or actually a "known" fault... its so hard to search here as both 4G and LTE are too short search terms..
Now Do I bother to send it back to them and be without my phone for a couple weeks?? if its software then surely they cannot do anything... I wonder how long until the next OTA update that may fix this if I just wait it out??
Really don't know what to do, I rely on my phone a lot, 4G isn't really "needed", but I do find the 3g signal is quite poor around a lot of areas I used to get good 4G.

Thanks, I'm currently on 2.41.401.3
I have good 4g on my old phone (now sold), and this htc10 was better when I first got it, now its aweful,
Can you link me the exact software youre using? I'm very new to the HTC, I assumed the europ unlocked software would be the same as USA? but I don't get Volte or Wifi calling on 3uk..
I use mirrorlink quite a lot, and like the HTC software, so i'm keen to keep on a stock rom so I can use android pay as well etc.. or is your rom custom/rooted etc? Sorry to pester, you're the first threeuk customer on this phone I've come across. any extra details/information would be awesome thanks.

Search for SneakyGhost firmware htc 10 xda, exactly like that in google i am not sure if im allowed to send links on here that's why and you will find the firmware in their, its 2.xx.617.x
My phone is rooted, head over to the viper 10 page on here its a custom rom... If you get an RUU exe file you can install
617 firmware and stock rom and will have working volte, inside my home i have 4g lte connection so its about 60mb download speed, no joke on 3!!!! Lol with an RUU you will lose ALL data so back up on pc and move back over afterwards, any more questions or if i was clear PM me
So a bit of an update.. I chickened out of a software change... So got the sim changed, no difference, gotthe phone sent for repair, they updated to 401.4 but no change.. rang again, and we tried setting to 4G only using the service menu, and bop 4G signal just fine.. so it genuinely is a software bug in 7.0, the stupid thing is I had one bar at 3G, I swapped to 4g only and had 5bars!!!!! so it wasn't even like it was favouring the strongest signal.. just a shame I cannot receive phonecalls on 4g, so I need to leave it set to auto and just accept until they sort it that I rarely get 4g.. but at least I now know if I need 4g at any point I can go to the service menu and swap to 4g temporarily. he sounded like there have now been like a few reports of this, so hopefully HTC take it on board and push a software update promptly. he suggested 3-4weeks as a potential timescale, I suspect he meant months.. but fingers crossed

When you were having this problem was Chrome allowing you to access some sites, but on others saying that the DNS server could not be reached? If its same problem that you are having I can't use your work around as it's difficult to get a 4G signal where I live.

Sounds like you're having a different issue, assuming you have a data connection, and each website has no server issues, or the ISP isn't blocking the site(usually they'd say not a DNS error) then one site should load as easy as another, I have these exact same issues when I have ad-blockers enabled on certain sites (some you'd expect to work).. do you run a blocker of any form? try disabling it and trying again on that website..

No ad blocker.
I tried a variation of your solution and made the phone only connect to 3G or lower which seems to have solved the issue even when I switch back to 4G, hopefully it's not just a coincidence. Thanks for your advice.
Three UK user here, just tried the service menu 4G force and that seems to work for me, I shall see how it goes. Good for dead spot testing
So a few days later: Leaving it on means 4G pretty much everywhere I go but the obvious downside is no calls even through the ThreeInTouch app. Bit of a downer so back to watching it sit on 4G until I want to actually use it then it goes 'Hey let me check jump back to regular H for you'
