Is it true? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hey all.
I recently got my account terminated from Sprint (roaming, lol. It was worth having 5 bars all the time using Verizon's PRL), I purchased a Toro and am switching to Verizon. I was talking to a buddy of mine and he was saying the Toro has tons of problems, i did my research and some users said there were issues, while some said there were not.
Can anyone share their experience(s) about their Toro as well?
Thanks.

good day.

I personally haven't had any issues with my toro. The only real issue I ever had was updating from ICS to JB before we had the correct radios, that caused some call issues. Been pretty smooth sailing since then. My old roommate did have to send hers in for a replacement after the USB cable stopped working, which I have read others say happened to them too.

No problems
I haven't had problem one with my Toro.

Wonky reception, faulty radio?

Hey guys. These past few days since I flashed 4.0.4 it feels like something is amiss. I have a very shaky reception and can consider myself lucky if I have tree out of four bars, and while I have three bars, I have no connection to Google sync (the bars are grey)
My father who also has Telia (carrier) on all his phones, has perfect reception all the times without signal loss, however I'm not so lucky. My SIM card doesn't seem to be the problem, so I'm suspecting radio issues. Ever since I started to flash custom ROMs, I've been using the XXLA2 radio which came with the 4.0.4 upgrade. I currently run CM9.
How can I be absolutely sure it's the radio? I'm asking, since I'd really avoid flashing radios.
I was thinking something. I suddenly remember how I don't really run a "full" XXLA2 radio. More like a patched one. When I had flashed stock 4.0.2 yakju on my previously yakjuxw device, and I chose to upgrade through a "ripped" OTA from a guide here on XDA, I noticed the OTA "patched" the radio.
Can that be the issue? That it's patched and not really the full XXLA02 radio?
Update: I reflashed the XXLA02 radio and the problem still persists, so I don't really think it's because of the radio. I'm going to consult Telia about this to see if it's because of them. Strange, though, as my father has almost full reception all the time and he also uses Telia on his three phones.

I'm on a full 4.0.4 radio and have always had issues. There comes a time when people need to just accept that the radio hardware sucks. Its always been like that for Samsung devices. I was always told on my Fascinate that a new radio would fix it...nope.

Strange. My dad has a Samsung Galaxy S2 and no problems whatsoever. Perfect reception without signal-loss or loss of connection to Google's servers.
I can't say if I had this issue while on 4.0.2

It's perfect. WiFi isn't handled by the radio, though, it's handled by the kernel. I'm going to see if this clears up by tomorrow. My carrier said they have some breakdowns, and that it was supposed to clear up by tomorrow. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

How about returning the phone for a warranty claim?

The issue is due to the min CPU power being to low to support the radio. If you are rooted you can raise your min CPU level to fix the problem. Anything above 500 seems to work...

I get this loud lawn mower type sound when listening to music while using data. It goes basically as loud as my headphones can go and scares the crap out of me. I hardly listen to music anymore just because of it. My wifi doesn't connect to my schools network using EAP. The top half of my display has a different tint than the bottom as well as lots of banding/burn in. I go from 4 bars 3G to 1 bar and then no data at all and not being able to send texts to having 2 bars 4G and losing that in 3 minutes...I should exchange my phone huh? Lol

I flashed back to stock 4.0.2 and I have the same issues.. and I almost never have signal even when NOT in standby.. right now I'm using bamf and CPU minimum is set to 700.. I'm thinking mine is hardware and not 4.0.4.. I bought the phone 3 days ago on 4.0.4 so I don't know how this phone was behaving before 4.0.4..
I'm just confused.. I've tried everything... was the reception issue only a problem on standby or all the time?
Anyone have any ideas for me to try?

Google Wallet now working on ALL Galaxy Nexus?

I just installed it from the Play Store on my unlocked Nexus on AT&T and everything worked. I now have the free $10 Google card. Before I'd get an error that it isn't available on my carrier.

It's worked for me for at least a month on AT&T with an unlocked Galaxy Nexus. No error messages and no messages regarding incompatibility.
Unsurprisingly it is still not offered in the Canadian play store even though our merchants do support it.

Yes, you can do that. The account may disappear, but you can add it back. I've wiped my Wallet data many times at this point. AOKP and stock both work the same as far as I can tell.

Same here pretty much. I use H2O (an AT&T MVNO) and I was able to download and use Wallet the day I bought my Nexus at the end of January. In the Google Play store it shows up as an AT&T Nexus.
Oh, I should mention that mine is the NTT Docomo version. I heard that you might have to call in to activate it or something? Not 100% sure.

I was wondering the same thing although in my research to finding the cause to our problem, I read on some sites that it is due to the vulnerabilities and the ability to get into other peoples "wallet" via deleting the caches.

That doesn't make sense. That CS rep is an idiot, and has no idea when the OTA is coming.
No one here knows either. It's gonna be a couple months, sorry. Nexus devices do get direct OTAs, except when you have a CDMA model and the carrier has to approve the update first. Then it takes a couple months.
That seems kinda pointless to have a nexus device if it is carrier affiliated that's the point of quick otas.. is anyone building jb from source or compiling from GSM devices thanks

Of course they are, because the GSM one already has source and OTAs. But you don't have a GSM device...
There are source ROMs for the Sprint one too, but they don't have updated radios, because the Sprint device isn't fully supported in AOSP at the moment.

[Verizon] How is the reception?

hello,
How is the reception on the Verizon Nexus? I heard there was a radio issue but not sure if it was true or if it got fixed. Anyway... any feed back will be appreciated.
Better.. was like utter crap before the last release.. battery was doing well and 4g signal worked as well as can be expected..
it's been great in Phoenix
It depends on your location. Some areas have great VZW coverage, others not so much. You should ask your local friends if they like their coverage.
However, I have found VZW has better penetration into large buildings. When I had AT&T + iPhone, I always lost signal at work unless I stood by a window. With VZW, my GNex rarely drops calls no matter where I am (of course, the two different phones may have been a factor).
You hear complains about the GNex radio and dropped calls/data, but you shouldn't let that sway your decision. Every model that comes out will have its share of units with constant signal problems, and the GNex is no different. Owners of such phones fill the forums with complaints & requests for help (legitimately so), which tends to give the phone a bad reputation. But the vast majority of GNex owners never have major signal problems. And those that were having signal loss with the original radios will most likely agree that signal quality has improved significantly with the latest firmware.
Thank you for those quick replies... I was asking because in some places I read is a bug with ICS and others that is the radio. I got a GS3 but i'm going to return it and get a Nexus till the new Nexus comes out.
I have good signal just about everywhere.

Honestly... the Galaxy S3 is a sweet phone , played with one yesterday. But for some reason I like my Nexus better. The screen on the GS3 is better but that's about it. And not worth it yet cause of its locked bootloader. You will be happy with a Nexus.

There are definitely areas where Verizon is not king. I spend a week or so in Torrance every year, and Verizon sucks there bigtime. In fact, I think ATT had LTE right on Redondo Beach. Or so I was told. I barely had 3G, although to my defense I was on JB at the time.
My experience has always been very good with this phone. This link says it all!
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/25921-this-is-why-your-verizon-nexus-signal-sucks/
I've learned to ignore the signal bars all together, as long as my texts and calls go through; which they do even when there's no bars showing.
4G is spotty on here, but I'm on wifi 95% of the time anyway, and on 3G the remainder...4G isn't worth anything to me really.
Cheers

I for the most part just dislike the company policies. The service is fine, just a little pricey. Customer service has always left me wanting better, and I personally find the handling of the Galaxy Nexus to be quite the fiasco.

Verizon sucks because Verizon doesn't care. Wasn't my words, but of a Verizon employee. I thought it was common knowledge but alas, this thread exists.

Who's more stupid? The one that paid way more than 200$ for a carrier branded "LTE" crapware bloated CDMA, nexus, with the most inconvenienced extra fees and plans, or the one that purchased a GSM HSPA+ unlucked direct from Google for 350$ if you're gonna call some consumers stupid, remember you got 3 fingers pointing at you, from your own hand leaving your index hanging, buddy

Just to say...
Verizon and sprint updated their galaxy nexus to 4.1 via OTA months after jellybean came out.
But the key here is that they still kept their promise and we had jelly bean before any other phone on their roster.
Even the hottest phone of the year Galaxy s3 didn't get jellybean till this week.(Verizon still waiting)
Verizon held up their end. You were the first to get jelly bean and unless the nexus 4 comes to Verizon, you will be the first on Verizon to have 4.2
The new Droid DNA comes with 4.1.2 so you're fine.

I'm sorry, I can't hear you over my LTE and no dropped calls. What's that? You have HSPA+? Im sorry your breaking up...must be all that high latency.
