Buffalo's been live and has great signal in most areas of suburbs already.

Randomly under About > Network under Settings,

Instead of CDMA or 1xrtt or LTE, it says

'unknown'

and I have no internet connectivity (no logo for 3g/4g/1x at the top).

Turn it to CDMA Only, and it's good. Back to LTE/CDMA, unkown network (until reboot). Usually it's fine, but this happens every few days. I don't know if it's a network thing or a Rezound thing

On Speakeasy through dolphin browser I got 11 down/1 up. On the speed test app I got 8 down/1 up. On LTE on my Bolt (I still show 3G on my Rezound.)

I had 4g this morning coming off the charger & thought it was finally fixed.

I just noticed I'm running on 3g at work however which almost NEVER happened before all this BS.

[HTC Rezound] AtLemacks:
Speed test is not accurate. It is only accurate to the server you pick. If you are seeing "significant" boosts it is not from the network as it was already fast. Not to mention. I don't even use Chicago servers for speed test when I run it for fun as they are all slower than the random ones I pick up form Michigan.
[HTC Rezound] VTENGR:
In Atlanta and no 4G here...

I seem to have found my missing G here in Michigan today (back to 4G's)
[HTC Rezound] reniur:
4G is up and running in Hampton Roads, VA.

I'm also getting significantly faster speed tests but I think this may be due to lack of network saturation as the service comes back up.
[HTC Rezound] pbprodigy1724:
Well I do know this. And usually I would agree. But since last night I have run 3 more test and I am consistently pulling 10 MB faster then I did before. I run test daily for work to show customers the speed differences. Just seemed odd to me. I might be picking up a different server now.

[HTC Rezound] Longcat14:
I think it's just because the network was down, not all phones have reconnected to the network, giving you a speed boost.
[HTC Rezound] pbprodigy1724:
This is actually very plausible. Didn't consider that since I am between two cities but would make the most sense. Thank you. Sad that it isn't faster though :p

[HTC Rezound] ssoares01:
I have noticed my phone dropping to 1x and then picking 4g back up over the past day and a half or so... some times a reboot helps, sometimes it doesn't. Not sure if its the network going up and down or my phone, although the phone has been fine up to this point.

At the time of your posting I had it, but it's been down for me since yesterday evening. Saw 4g for one second then it's 3g or absolutely nothing. Had to turn wifi on to connect. Still just 3g now.

EDIT: OMG... doh! Had to take my back cover off last night when my screen froze on black when taking a flash pic and just noticed a tiny gap in the upper right corner where I hadn't snapped it completely shut. Did that and voila! 4g. :o

San Antonio varies wildly.

While the LTE coverage is decent (not surprisingly more so in the more "affluent" parts of town), the speeds have ranged from approx 15D/5U to 35D/10U.

That REALLY slow one (0.99D) was run in BFE, so prob not even 3G.

[HTC Rezound] PhantomApollyon:
First off, if you're not complaining then this mini-rant isn't for you, so please disregard and continue to be constructive.

It's astounding to me that people freak out so intensely over a little data outage on a network that is being built/changed/updated/expanded constantly at a pace that no one could have anticipated save the VZW network engineers. It's even more amazing to me that people take time out of their day to call, complain and request credits for a few hours of downtime here and there. I'm positive that VZW would be happy to give people the few cents or dollar per device credit they so intensely feel like they "deserve" for the downtime if you really feel the need to call in and complain. I would take the most ultimate delight in handing out a 33 cent credit because you have an 29.99 unlimited data plan and were down for 6 hours.

When there's road construction and you have to take a detour because your city is expanding a new highway to increase traffic flow do you seriously think they owe you gas money and a tax cut because you're used to the new route and don't budget for more time/gas to take a different path? Get real.

I work in the telecom industry in a repair center for a major business telecommunications provider. The sheer amount of "gee whiz" technology is mind boggling, and it's truly amazing that there are people out there smart enough to keep these networks running. Unfortunately, most people just don't understand the scale of a modern telecommunications network (I dont blame them lol) and therefore don't appreciate what it takes to monitor and resolve network issues. Trust me, when the word "outage" is brought up, NOC technicians scramble, it's the last thing they want to hear.

Hi All,

Just wanted to pass this on. I've tried the Verizon screen protector and it totally sucks. It's very thick and makes the touch display really unresponsive, so I pitched that in the trash.

Then I found Steinheil. The SGP Steinheil Ultra Crystal (actually, under color choose the Ultra Fine for an extra $2) It is a really nice, matte style screen protector with a wonderful added benefit... NO FINGER PRINTS!

They're not the cheapest, but trust me, I've had several and these are the BEST, hands down!

I am not associated with store or the product. Just a grateful user.

Enjoy!

I don't disagree on Steinheil having good screen protectors, but you thought the VZ one was too thick? I'm using the VZ protectors (came in a three pack, the standard not the anti-glare) and it's not thick at all. It is hardly noticable. Only thing I don't like is the way they cut around the top area, and there is a subtle rainbow affect. If you want thick - try the Zagg!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] RyanTX:
I bought the sgp ultrafine and love everything about it except it makes light backgrounds look all grainy.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] spyder560:
yep agreed, I've always used Steinheil protectors. They're the best.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] RyanTX:
It covers the whole screen and has cutouts for the camera, speaker, mic and led.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kaiserb_uk:
I've just fitted the 3M Vikuiti ADQC27 and it's brilliant. Reduces reflection making the screen clearer and brighter, and the surface is less grippy than the bare glass. It doesn't resist finger marks all that well though.

It slightly overhangs the bevelled edges of the screen and won't stick to them, but as I have an S-line case on I don't notice particularly.

Isn't the phone gorilla glass coated? Why does it even need a screen protector for regular use?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] SallyC:
It's scratch resistant - not proof. I wouldn't worry too much dragging my keys over it but something like sand would likely scratch it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Oaklands:
They put one of those cheap ones on st Verizon and I took it off due to how it affected the look of the screen. Decided to skip a screen protector.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Cxpher:
Its uber scratch resistant. Sand shouldn't even hurt it. I've used sharp keys and tried on my SGS 2. My best effort is to leave impressions of scratches. That's it. If you don't mishandle these devices with the coating, you would never be able to scratch them.

And how to enjoy the super amoled hd screen if you gimp it with a screen protector?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] SallyC:
From what I've read, metal is not the problem. But sand is. See Has anyone scratched their gorilla glass for one thread on the topic.

You see plenty of tests of GG with keys and coins, but not sand or sandpaper because it likely will scratch. And pocket dirt often contains sand. Even if you don't put it in your pocket, if you drop it like here, you still are at risk.

I wish this wasn't true, and maybe it's worth taking the risk, but it's worth noting that Corning does not say scratch proof and you never see them test it against sand or sidewalk/road grit.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] passion_plus:
What is recommended application method - dry or wet? I'd prefer the wet method, as it gives you the chance to slide it perfectly allign it with screen.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] SallyC:
I just put on the Ultra Fine this afternoon. I had the one from the Commuter but didn't like the glare and smudges from fingers.

The Ultra Fine is a huge improvement! No glare or fingerprint markings. No problems putting it on either but you do get two in case you need it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] passion_plus:
2 screen protectors for 1?

Do you get 2 screen protectors for the price of 1? I'm planning to order at Amazon, is it the same case with Amazon orders that you get two of them?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] SallyC:
I ordered from Amazon too. They give you two in the pack. Edit: To be clearer, Steinheil puts two in the pack, not Amazon.
