There were very minor issues with the release firmware and baseband but how can you have a real opinion without even trying it for yourself? Every phone that comes out has issues in the beginning but these things get fixed. I for one am a very happy user and have had no deal breaker issues what so ever.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RTContent:
Do a quick search on the forum for baseband and you'll quickly find out :-)

Not really "newer" but there are other ones you can flash and try out.

Well this thread is referring to the GSM model and you're getting the VZW model so... doesn't really apply to you. The VZW model has its own problems.

And ffs don't complain before you own the phone. Jesus...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nodstuff:
You don't have the phone.

Your opinion means ZERO.

I have the GSM model and I have no problems with signal.

I'm using the XXKL1 radio, my phone came with the XXKK6 radio.

...if you don't own the phone yet, why are you ranting already? How about deciding yourself if you like it or not? People nowadays are so susceptible...

I have a GSM version. I have tried evey radio and kernal / rom build I could get my hands on. Each one I had issues with connectivity on ATT in Chicago.

Phone would not connect

Phone would connect, but no data

Yes, I have my ATT account provisioned for 4g data plan.

Did not make a difference.

On speed test, my pings were on the 1000+ ms. Make the phone useless..

Too bad, I really like the GN, except for the horrible single issues and the screen brightness levels that are too low. Kinda funny..

I like to load roms and play, but this phone requires a lot of that, and my results did not pan out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChadXDA:
I kinda have the same problem as you mattalter. I'm on att but in the south east, my phone calls are fine. I just have a problem with data here and there. Mine signal jumps around allot from -95 dBm to -110 which causes my internet to either connect or not.

Here is what I'm running:

Carrier: AT&T

ICS: 4.0.2 stock

Baseband: I9250XXKK6

Kernel: 3.08-gaaa2611

Build # ICL53F

Updated by: Yakju

GSM International Version

Funny thing is my wife and daughter both have the skyrocket same carrier and there data is always fine. But I can be seated right next to them and there downloading away and I'm waiting to connect. It's very frustrating to say the least.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mattalter:
I have low dBM, around 70-85. I would think this would provide better radio performance, but no.

I am thinking of trying out the razr maxx. I have an vivid and I do enjoy the faster speeds..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SynFox:
@OP: That's why I asked which country you're from :)

Could you go into phone information on your device and post which radio is installed?

You might have a radio running that just doesn't work correctly where you live...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kenyu73:
I'm using the 4.0.4 leak. I've been at home next to a window nice sunny day and my signal bounces all over. I cant say I have data issues because I'm on WiFi 90% of the time.

I made this Real Signal app (in the Market) and I've compared the graphs to a Razr and Fascinate and the GN has the most bounce in signal change ratio between the three. Is this good or bad... I dunno. Having alot of signal changes will cause extra drain I can assume.

I was thinking about trading my Galaxy Note for the GSM Galaxy Nexus but a little concerned now. I'm in the US and live in Virginia. I was going to try to survive on the $30 plan on T-mobile which gives you only 100 minutes but 5GB of 4G data. Since I use Google Voice as my primary number I was planning on using Groove IP which does great on wi-fi and was going to use it over 4G also. To be honest I have never tried it on 4G...have on Sprints awful 3G and it didn't work well. I know with a G2X I could get speeds of 8 mbps down and 1.5 up. Does anyone else in the US use T-mobile and what speeds are you getting and how your signal strength is.

I just flashed over a new baseband instead of the European version that came on my phone. The one I installed is: UGKL1

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hsaithan93:
Is it good ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hsaithan93:
I dont know if u need these 2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Daramue:
Let me offer a solution to this vexing and extremely widespread problem. Here is how I solved it.

Assuming that a future firmware update will update the radios (I heard that 4.04 pretty much completely rids this problem from the phone), until then you have to make do (Unless you unlocked your bootloader and you intend to root. That's fine too.)

At first I thought the signal was just dropping. Randomly, my phone would look for a signal on end. However, this isn't the case; the problem completely went away when I switched network mode to "CDMA only". Naturally, this limits you to 3g only; but it works until we get the firmware update we need. I've not lost my connection even ONCE over this past month of CDMA only.

This leads me to believe that the problem actually has to do with the phone switching between the LTE and CDMA networks (4g and 3g, respectively) and not with the radios themselves. I'm not sure. But I've kept my phone on "CDMA Only" and it's been fine ever since. I toggle 4g when I need it (Video streaming, etc.) When this problem is addressed in a future update, this will no longer be necessary.

Give it a try.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hsaithan93:
Hey Dara !

Thanks For Your Post

But i dont have 4g on my mobile

3g-2g ... is there a way i can make it only 3g ?

cause in the options its only

2g only

or

3g or 2g

cause when i dont use the phone i found that the signal is stable , ones i use the internet or Calling it drop down , even it dosconnects idk

do you think its s\oftware related problem ? will be fixed with 4.04 ICS?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChadXDA:
I updated my baseband lastnight to UGLA4. Now my signal has increased, my data hasn't dropped and speed is faster. I'm quite happy now. So it seems my main issue was the radio baseband that came stock on my phone.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NagaRampage:
signal issue

Hello guys!

I also have signal issues. Hoping it will help to get it solved...here are my experiences :

It all started after the infamous 4.0.4 update. After 1-2 weeks I received another OTA update which I didn't know what was all about. After a few days...I've started noticing signal drops and it would not reconnect to the network. I'm referring to network in general (not just data).

After scouting the forums, found the 2 culprits : 1. Kernel & 2. Radio.

Soo...flashed a new Kernel (FuguMod), the issue seemed to be fixed...for 1-2 days, tried the new version that kept beeing released....same. Switched to FrancoKernel and again it seemed to be fixed for 1 day or 2, but still nada. Scouted the forums some more and found out it could be radio releted so I've started flashing all bunch of radios from one of the threads on this wonderful website, but no changes. The only noticeble change was that the old european radio (pre-4.0.4) was switching 3g-H all the time but other than that nothing.

Well, I luv this phone quite frankly and wanted to sell it quite a few times, but I just can't part from it...soo....perhaps we'll find a solution.

Hoping that a tech savy will read this, here's what I discovered :

It not just loses the network connection, but

it turns off the radio (sort off)

:

My issue presents itself like this : The signal is 0, and sometimes has an x over it, and it will not reconnect. I entered the tech-menu *#*#4636#*#*# and I noticed that the radio was

OFF

, because the button was named "Turn radio ON"

I'm also using JuiceDefender Ultimate, but I don't see why it should affect the network, since it turns off data and wifi....

Any thoughts?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cgibsong002:
Who here uses go launcher? I'm new to android so please bear with me. I was looking at themes and stuff and saw go launcher mentioned. I also saw it mentioned as a means for using scrollable wallpapers. So I downloaded it, opened it, and basically had no idea how to use my phone once i did. all my stock icons and everything were gone and there were 'download' bars everywhere. i realized when hitting the home button i could switch back to the default launcher and thats where i'm at now.

So before diving into messing with go launcher, is it worth it? Does it work well once properly set up? if so, got any tips or is there a site explaining how to use it and everything? I couldn't even find the applications button.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ierv69:
Go Launcher is the best Launcher ever... Just need to play around..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cgibsong002:
Ok, so I was messing around with it a bit this morning and I'm figuring it out. One thing I can't get still is scrolling wallpaper. When I went to set it, it asked me if I wanted scrolling (and yes i've got a 1600x1280 image that I'm using), but it doesn't scroll. Is there something else that I might be missing?

Also, I installed their go task manager on one of my screens. It seems I have about 30 apps running. Is this normal? Was it like this on the stock launcher, or with this launcher do I have to constantly be sure to kill everything?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Thremix:
How's your battery? I never have that many apps running at once ..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Coffinfeeder:
I just started using GO launcher too, but it's very similar to adw ex which is what I've always used. These launchers are very easy to set up. Long-press on the screen to add your icons and widgets and so forth. Everything can also be resized, like long-pressing over a widget to get it resized properly to our larger screens. Just press the menu button and go through the preferences and see how you want to set it up to your liking. Also, go to themes and you can change everything such as icons and wallpapers in one step. Mine is currently on the ICS theme which comes preinstalled on the launcher.

I don't really use task killers so I'm not quite sure if the number of apps running is normal for you or not. From what I understand the android OS automatically deals with managing apps in the background and you should never really need to use a task killer.

I would recommend googling GO launcher guide for more in-depth reading if you're confused at all
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cgibsong002:
Here are some screens showing what I think are the open apps. I'm not sure if theres a difference between open apps and apps running in the background. I didn't want to take a screen of each app as i scrolled through but you get the idea.

Like in adw ex launcher.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jb0nd38372:
Go Launcher, atleast the version Im running (beta) the task manager widget shows apps running in the background as well as apps you have loaded. There are two different styles of widget you can choose for the task manager. The minimal version just shows a gauge / no apps and used / free memory. I think the one you are using is the 4x2 widget that shows app icons... :)

if fastboot is working and you believe the recovery is corrupt, just try flashing a correct recovery through adb fastboot?

there's a tutorial on that somewhere on the forum, then you can probably try nandroid recovery if you made a copy previously

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] 8Fishes:
You can do it yourself with FauxClock
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] yoft1:
Or SetCPU, System Tuner, AnTuTu CPU Master, Voltage Control :D There's plenty of apps that will control clock speed that don't require you to change kernels. Although if you're looking to undervolt as well, I've only found System Tuner to give me voltage controls. The rest only give me clock speed controls. But if all you want to do is turn the clock speed down, any of those will work!

Hey guys, I need a big time favor.

My girl's gTab was stolen :(

was due to my idiotic negligence, but **** happens right, I'm an optimistic sort of guy, so **** it, I've still got my Galaxy Note and some Jack Daniels :)

Now the favor.

I had the good sense to do a CWM backup of my girl's gtab ROM that I flashed. Obviously I'm the Mod junkie in this relationship, after all, I owned an HD2 and flashed every ROM from here to Russia :)

so I still have the CWM backup files but not the gTab. I want to get the data off teh cwm backup to restore to my Note.

So the favor I need is for one of you to download the CWM backup I uploaded, restore it on your gTab, download My Backup Root, then do a full backup, then upload it and send me the link. I really want to surprise her with al the restores of her "Bakery Store"and "Restaurant Story" and all the other apps she had on the gtab. I am entrusting one of you to the personal data, so please just back up the data and restore YOUR rom :)

If anyone is up for this, please let me know is this thread of via PM, and I will link you to the CWM file. hopefully someone is feeling generous.
