My Verizon upgrade is due in February and though I love my galaxy nexus the reception is terrible constantly in 3g. I had an s3 for about 6 months always had 4g but just missed my nexus to much and switched back despite the constant data drops..
Which phones on Verizon have the best/descent/worst antenna?

do you have the latest radios for toro? i get 4g even in my woods when im riding.
Yes, this is my third nexus as well. So either the receptions sucks or I have really bad luck.

go to settings>about phone>baseband version= it should say for the vzw variant "I515.10 V.FK01 / I515.FK02" <-if you dont have that version,go to this ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1890585 ) and get the latest radios,since your still getting drops and bad speeds you might need to upgrade your radios.
i have the latest radios, though my question is redundant... i have had a nexus for 2 years always keeping up with the latest radios.
Same problem here. It's bad enough that in switching to T-Mobile as son as I can. I'm done with Verizon's sub par network and crap phone selection. I love my gnex but paying for 4g and rarely getting 4g to work is just not worth staying with them. I had the same problem on my Moto Bionic. I think their network is just receiving way to much traffic for it to handle and they don't have enough towers or networking to deal with it. Sorry, just my rant I had to get out.

Has anyone been noticing any strange network types on your toro+ I usually get EVDO REV A:8 but lately it has been jumping between EVDO REV A:6, EVDO REV 0:5, and 1xRTT:7 never seen all these different types before I just noticed it when I started using Jelly Bean. Speeds are slower also unless I'm by the Sprint store then I would see like 2mb/s but anywhere else more like .5

Since I see that you are seeing the same things I think it might be because its an LTE phone because my Photon doesn't display those networks I see I have data upgrades, and voice upgrades planned and some they say have been completed maybe it could be Network Vision. Normally if I had no bars call would not go thru neither would text but now it seems they will with no bars. Speed is slower since I'm on the outskirts of where towers are but better connectivity I can't explain it

My experience with sprint is that they have really screwy connectivity. I love their phones.. except the 4s which I hated and was useless. And I love their 'unlimited' data. But right now their going through a tough time. And that's cause I've been paying for 4g for almost two years and I have not gotten a single drop of wimax when I had the epic and the epic touch. Nor a drop of lte now that I have a toroplus.

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.

I've only had mine for a week and Verizon signal is great. 4g is great too. Only thing that's weak is Wi-Fi for some odd reason. 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 have no problems in Pittsburgh

GNex is LTE too so you would be stuck on 3G either way. Sprint 3G is terrible in case you didn't already know.

3g isn't bad for me. It's an easy choice IMO. If you want access to the latest software, and want it to be fully functional, and stable, go Nexus. The GS3 doesn't have "that" much going for it over the Nexus.

"All hardware specs aside" makes it very simple. Galaxy Nexus hands down. But please get the GSM version to get the full benefit and all of the freedom from contracts, carrier restrictions, and official software delays.
If your not getting GSM nexus may as well get the better hardware. S3 would be my recommendation, though I'll personally stick with my GSM nexus.
That's my unbiased opinion, considering the forum your on you should know what most people will say.

Dont be lured by the unlimited marketing engine from Sprint. Their network is horrible. 3g is more like 2g at best and 4g is hit or miss. I imagine given their track record, LTE will be the same. Unlocked GNEX on T-mobile is the way to go! Thats what I did and couldnt be happier.

Bad 3G? It really all depends on location. Really if your not in an area where LTE will be very prevalent. Then go with the GSM. Otherwise you may want to reconsider the sprint nexus. I've seen people getting consistent 25+ Mbps. And just as much upload. That plus non throttled unlimited is heaven sent.

Are you on LTE? If so, the Nexus properly reports the LTE signal, which may be worse because it is not rolled out as widely as the 3G on your Incredible.
Also, the radios on the GNex aren't the best, as is widely noted and complained about.

Outside of the appearance of a "weak" signal, does the device function? Can you make a call? I have a signal of -102db at work because we have crap coverage of all kinds and can still make a clear call on my VZW GNex. Outside of the building I get more bars (like it matters) and can make the same phone call. Obviously data speeds are slower inside than out, but communications still flow.

Yes I still can make phone calls, but when I first noticed it I had my wife call me and it didn't ring. So I'm afraid that I'll end up missing phone calls. I'm a firm believer in the "if you pay for something it should work and not be defective". Also when I talked to Verizon the tier two tech said it couldn't activate/communicate with the device at the the switch. He suggested a new sim or phone. He also said with the worry free guarantee I could switch out the phone for another. I would have to pay the difference if it cost more. I'm now wondering if since I got this phone for free would I have to 299.99 for a phone, or since it costs 299.99 at Verizon could I switch it out for a phone that costs 299.99?

I'm pretty sure it only means the difference in MSRPs between the two devices. Had the same situation a few years ago with Sprint when 3 Instincts went bad. Upgraded to a Touch Pro and only had to pay $100, even though I got the Instinct for only $50 on special.

I have AT&T. Been using the GNEX for months (before it was available on Google Play) and it shows ~1 bar/0 bars in my basement. I recently got a new GSM RAZR MAXX and in the same basement, I get 4/5 bars and never drop a call ever.
That says something to me. Quite simply Samsung radios aren't nearly as good as Motorola's radios.
I'm actually selling my GNEX and keeping the RAZR.

Slim-to-none in my experience. I think it's always been a tradeoff between Motorola and Samsung. I love Samsungs design and screens and ease of rooting/unlocking compared to HTC and Moto. For me, the carrier (Verizon) and their excellent network in my area more than makes up for the lack of the GNex's signal-pulling ability.

I get lousy reception on my gsm galaxy nexus on Bell too. This is my second nexus and it's definitely no better than the first. They keep making phones thinner and thinner and at some point radios, batteries, internal storage have to suffer. I like the phone but I can't wait until my contract is up and I can check out the new Nexus'.

No time without signal that high is killing his battery more than the screen. Cell phones want to remain in contact with the tower at all times, the poor signal the phone tries that much harder to stay on the tower.

If you're using 4G, remember that 4G on ICS and higher (I believe it's all ICS/JB devices) reports RSRP signal status, rather than RSSI. RSRP shows a much lower number for a similar signal level. Read this thread for more information.
I think I pinpointed it to the fact that when I'm connected to wifi I'm not connected to the mobile network. Does this make sense? when I'm not connected it is reading it as time without signal.

You can't get sprint to change your phone to the gs3 its possible but you have to have got your phone replaced more than 4 times and each replacement can't be more than a month a part and that is rare I did that I came from the galaxy nexus. But mine were legit replacents I wasn't trying to scam them if you want to exchange to a gs3 I would suggest maybe replacing your phone and if that doesn't work then just sell it and buy a gs3
