The U.S. isn't like the rest of the world. With the exception of Asus, all the manufacturers offer both 3G and Wi-Fi versions of their tablets. Some of what's available in the U.S. are adaptations of those. And data plans in a lot of countries aren't as expensive and don't lock you in to two-year contracts making 3G much more popular outside the U.S.

Asus said in the spring they'd launch a 3G version of the TF1. In November, they sent them out to reviewers. It's still not released and may never be. Apparently, Asus isn't big on 3G.

I have a HSPA+ 21 UK tablet that I use on AT&T. It's $20 a month with unlimited data and MMS because it's just another non-smartphone on my account. Tethering is a pain in the ass. Get out the phone, turn on Wi-Fi sharing, connect the tablet, disconnect the tablet, turn off Wi-Fi sharing. If you forget the last thing you're phone's battery is shot. It's shot anyway becasue Wi-Fi sharing's a huge drain. Connecting a tablet after it's been offline's also a pain while you wait for everything to sync before you can start using it. With all the carriers (except Sprint) starting to throttle for excessive usage splitting data over two devices keeps each devices data usage down. I'm usually at 4-6GB a month on both my phone and tablet individually. It's great when you're traveling to be able just whip the tablet out quickly and start using it. I'm not selling anyone on the idea of 3G but it has its advantages.

And there's zero chance the Prime has a GSM radio in it. It wasn't shown in the tear down and wasn't in the sample sent to the FCC for clearance.

No need for 3G when you can tether right to your phone via bluetooth , no root or apps needed, just connect and go
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] acidus.:
3G would have been nice. Tethering from a phone drains the battery too quickly.

So my battery life was, decent, I suppose for the most part until the other day it started going to hell. Idk if this was caused at all by the status bar battery mod I flashed, but even when I flashed back to stock it's still horrible. I charged my phone to 100% and let it sit on the charger for an hour just to make it was really full. Then I took it off and went to bed. I woke up 9 hours later and the battery was at 38%. It was on standby the entire night so idk why it drained so much. I looked at the battery stats and android systems took up around 40% and standby took up about 20%. On a day of normal use it goes from 100% to 80% in about 1.5 to 2 hours. I am rooted on stock rom but that's it. Like I said it use to be decent on battery life. Anyone have a suggestion? Should I call samgsung to see if I can get a replacement?

Yesterday, I took my beloved Desire HD into an Orange shop, after a touchscreen failure and the guys there and in India over the phone agreed to replace it. They said it would be delivered today (A

sunday

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tamen:
I'm with Orange UK but haven't had any issues so no replacement.

Delivery on a sunday is very uncommon, that might have been a mistake or miscalculation of working days? If it hasn't arrived tomorrow give them a ring and ask about what's happened.

Reflash the stock rom again just to be on the safe side.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimetti:
I am on att wireless

I have noticed that in a low service area i get none at all.

However my wife on her iphone has 1/2 bars and my bro on his atrix also has 1/2 bars.

Anyone else having similar issues?

12/7 Update - More information on what I have attempted

Setting APNS for 4g on ATT

getting correct 4g data plan on account

New Sim cards

Replacement Galaxy Nexus

Different Roms

Stock Restore Rom

restore to default and install nothing

different radio

update to 4.0.1

Once the signal drops to almost unusable levels , the only way to get it back is either reboot the phone or toggle airplane mode. After that the signal returns to a solid 89-93 DBM. After roughly 30-60min it will then drop and I have to toggle it again. All other phones in my location have no problem including my iphone 4s with the exact same sim card.

I am in a decent location for signal. On the nexus reboot its at -89 dbm , my iphone 4s is at -87. The iphone stays that way and the galaxy nexus over time drops to -105 to -111.

Still no conclusion.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] infernalman7:
I only have problem with Wi-Fi where the reception is considerably weaker than any other device just around it. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xliderider:
Bars mean very little, as devices have their indicators calibrated differently. You should be comparing signals, in dBm for a meaningful comparison.

The acid test, of course, is whether you can make and hold a call, and or send/receive data.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
Yeah kind of hard to gauge from bars. Nokia and motorola are known for excellent reception. Samsung not so much. They do seem to be improving on all fronts though, including wifi and gps.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] watso4183:
I'm seeing a similar issue.

When I have 2g only selected, I get 2 bars -98 asu 7. When I have it deselected I have no bars and signal is -111 asu 1.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimetti:
Well ive had similar issues

Today I wiped phone and came back to initially 4/5 bars and download speeds of 4 down 1 up.

Then after about 10 min , right back down to 1/0 bars and 800 kbps down 200 up.

popped off back cover and then pulled sim , reset sim and then reboot. Again it initially came back with 4/5 bars with hsdpa. Again about 10 min later back down to 1/0 bars and a -113 dbm reading,

Then oddly enough i was in the status screen just watching it hover around -113 to -105 , it clicked to edge full 5 bars , then came back to 3G 4 bars and now at -93 dbm.

Does this sound at all normal? I havent changed location more than a few feet through all this. My wifes Iphone seems to be having 0 issues right next to me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimetti:
just watched it do it again.

Was at 1 bar went to 0 , got stuck on -113 dbm for about a minute or 2 clicked over to edge-2 -87 dbm then back to hsdpa -93 dbm

:/ i got no clue at this point

there is a video showing some of the issue

http://youtu.be/dbSAEHVcosI
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s.m.knipe:
Is this at home or a place where you frequently are? If so, I would do one of two things (provided you want to keep the device):

Write an NFC tag that you can tap on your way in (and presumably on on the way out as well) that would switch you over to "2G only" (which it seems gives you a better signal), and back to 3G/3.5G on your way out the door. or...

Either write yourself, or wait for one to be written, a kernel that will throw more power to the radio (at the expense of battery life however- but if you are constantly searching for signal your phone is probably wasting a ton of battery right now anyways)...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimetti:
ya i am at home.

My wife consistently gets 3 down 1 up on her 4s.

No one else seems to be having issues , perhaps mine is just defective?

this is what happens when i lightly grip phone

http://youtu.be/-eqlMUoeq_I
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s.m.knipe:
Maybe, but I can't think of a way to reliably test whether it is defective or not. My Samsung phones have always had lightly weaker radios than my HTC and Moto phones, and my sister's iPhone, so I will wager that it is just that in the name of battery life the radio is under-powered, which can be changed in the kernel. I was in a similar boat back when I was on T-mobile (right on the edge of service), and luckily someone had posted a custom ROM for the G1 that routed more power to the radios, and gave me just enough to hold a signal and use my wifi for data. Whatever that kernel in that ROM did, it gave me about 10 dbm difference. You might want to throw a request in the development section.

you can also try exchanging the device (if ever unhappy at all you should try to), but I am wondering if it will actually make a difference. Do you know someone with a recent Samsung phone like a SG2 (not LTE/Skyrocket) or maybe one of their Windows phones (I don't know what radios/speeds they use), to see if it gives similar results?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimetti:
Ya , i was at my brothers house yesterday with no service at all.

My bro had an atrix with 1/2 bars and service.

my wife had an iphone 4 with 1/2 bars and service

and my sister in law had a galaxy s2 with 1/2 bars and service as well.

I had 0 at all.

The odd thing is , every time I reboot my phone it holds on to 4/5 bars at the location im at right now for a good 10 minutes , then flatlines.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s.m.knipe:
what APN are you using? Use the same APN settings as your Sis-in-law's GS2- when my Nexus first came I noticed the APN did not match my Atrix and it would not hold an HSPA+ signal for long; I changed it to match the Atrix and speeds/holding towers has been much better. Try the APN thing.

The GN and GS2 would have the same radio chip (I would imagine), and be set to draw the same amount of power by the kernel. If the APN thing doesn't work then you might want to consider an exchange I guess, maybe it is defective

The fact that it flatlines AFTER 10 minutes (presumably after all the syncing is finished for the various apps and services) is suggestive of a sort of "demand" model- like maybe the device amps up the radio when it knows there will be a lot of need, then scales back when demand is less- or over compensates at first, then under compensates later after some sort of calibration? The ten minute thing sounds odd, but sounds like something software/firmware/kernel-based...

[Keep in mind that there is much speculation contained in that advice, the true test for defective or not would simply be another GN at the same location- as that is unreasonable we'll have to speculate. Also, if your sis-in-law comes back over, check her phone status for her signal strength (not bars but dbm and asu) and see if it matches yours. The bars that you see are a software representation of those two numbers, and can be modified to under represent the actual signal.]
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimetti:
I am using the default cingular 410 apn

ive been reading that if support put a 4g data plan on my phone that it could potentially cause data loss. Is that correct?

also changed to 2g only for now and have 5bars -81 dbm constant.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s.m.knipe:
Not sure I follow, if AT&T made your data plan a 4G data plan, it would interrupt your service?

I think you are asking if changing these APN settings will trigger something at AT&T, and they will "bump" you to a 4G plan- in which case I don't really know, I had to jump onto a "4G" plan when I got my Atrix. I think it would never reach that point though, when you set up the new APNs, that step where you touch the dot to select the HSDPA APN, it would default back to your cingular 410 apn if it were not able to connect (via SIM provisioning or whatever). If unavailable it wouldn't be connected at that rate to begin with.

How old is the data plan you are on (is it prior to the tiered plans)? If you are worried about the connection (APN) not matching the SIM, you could request a new (4G) SIM. Maybe stop in your local store, or call customer service and tell them you are thinking about buying a 4G phone, your friend's brother's uncle' pizza delivery boy's nephew has an unlocked phone you could test speeds with, could they switch out your old SIM for a newer 4G one to see if it will be worth your while at your house, then just pop in that new SIM, change the APN and away you go? (Or to be even less complicated take your old phone in with your old SIM, and just ask for a new SIM card, that yours isn't working right, and it should be a new 4G (not LTE) card...

Well, at least the phone is usable on the 2G band for you, and will save a lot of battery. Meanwhile we'll try to get you connected to an HSPA+ tower.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimetti:
thanks for all the help really appreciate it.

Anyways a few things have happened since I last posted.

I had an iphone for the last 3 years. I went into ATT last week and got a normal 4g sim card in advance. Today I called my buddy who is a manager at a corporate store and he checked my account. Found that the lady had the wrong data on it. He ended up setting the sim to the 4g plan etc (which is unlimited)

I was able to add the ATT HSDPA apn and successfully connected to it. Prior to this I actually installed modaco's rom and restored everything.

At this point I am getting consistently 3 bars in my house (which is more than my wifes iphone 4s) on 4g.

Seems to be working much better now. The only other issue that remains is when I turn on WIFI. If i turn it on the cell reception goes to 1 bar or sometimes 0. I dont have the exact dbm values right now unfortunately. Calls and text still seem to go through however. Is it possible the wifi is drawing power designated for the radio?

Thanks again !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s.m.knipe:
Awesome, glad it worked out.

And possibly yes, depending on how the kernel relegates power wifi could "commandeer" a little from the cell radio, and reduce the dbm just enough to reflect in the "bars" algorithm.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimetti:
perhaps a new radio will eventually come out that I can test.

either way seems to be at least in service now , signal definitely drops when i hold the phone but as long as I can make calls it should be fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AllGamer:
in the meantime i'll suggest using the open signal widget https://market.android.com/details?id=com.staircase3.opensignal&hl=en

which will tell you the real reception in the phone, and see what you are getting behind those bars

don't expect to make a good call when the signal drops to -90 dbm and above

and if you have multiple phones like i do, then you can compare if other phone in the same spot, connected to the same tower, is having higher or lower dbm than SGN

for example my Nexus S had worse reception than my Milestone XT720.... go figure :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimetti:
Thanks I will try it out,

Overall i dont think the issue is fixed at all now. Went to bad and signal dropped all the way again. Stuck at -111 dbm. I held the phone i saw it switch to edge 5 bars and then click over to H 4 bars.

I really believe its some kind of software thing. If I cycle airplane mode on / off I get 4 bars (unknown dbm but its working) of 4g service. I know the service is here and working as my wifes iphone is fine but something is causing it to not hold the signal and eventually drop and not recover.

Makes no sense

Downloaded the app ,

Was at 42% signal strengh, I noticed when I picked up phone and lightly held it , it dropped right on down to 5% and got stuck there. This wasnt death gripping it either , barely holding it. Does anyone else have this issue or is it just mine? I know all cell phones have this issue but this seems excessive , worse than my iphone 4 ever was. I then cycled airplane mode again and signal strength went right up to 65% again -89 dbm

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
so far my radio has been fine. reception. calls have been clear. have rarely had any data drops. calls and data work at the same time. only slight problem is i haven't gotten over 3mbps at my apt. on a saturday afternoon in my area i should easily stay above 4 and have no problem getting 5-6mbps. but from my motorola atrix getting close to 6 or above wasn't very often. a consistent 4-5mbps connection would be great especially if i could get that downtown houston after 8am. sheesh.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aimetti:
did you by chance change the APN to the HSDPA one?

When I updated the APN and restart phone I was getting 6.3 down 1.4 up and my bro right next to me on his atrix was getting 3.4 down 800 up.

TO bad my phone doesnt keep a signal cause that would be pretty awesome if it did.
