[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vinnyjr:
Yes, I tried changing sim cards, no luck. The Nexus maintains the 4G signal, doesn't drop, just 1/2 the speed of my Rezound. I even bought a jacket to slide the small sim card into to use it in the Rezound, which takes the full size sim, same results. I am running complete stock, not yet rooted, bootloader still locked. Live in a great 4G area and never drop to 3G.

HELP, PLEASE

Hmm.... almost sounds like a rx (radio) problem, unless you're testing inside a metal building or something. I'm looking to purchase one of these phones, so I'll keep an eye on this thread to see if someone can give you some answers. Did you purchase the phone new? If so, perhaps you could take it back and exchange for another new one?

---------- Post added at 09:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:58 AM ----------

Could you compare signal strength between your Nexus and Rezound?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danielsaenz:
So you're complaining about 7-8 MB down? :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ti-force:
Is there not much difference between 7-8 and 20 mb down? I'm still stuck in the 3g world at the moment. I'm sure speed varies depending on different variables, but if his Rezound is doing 20, shouldn't his Nexus be closer to that number as well? I just want 4g lol..... Most of my local friends have me jealous of their 4g phones. Thanks for the two year contract, Verizon.....lol...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] danielsaenz:
Yes it is a "pretty big" difference when you compare 20 to 8. But in real life not so much. Anyway, I've been looking for a technical reason for the slower speeds on the GNex, but haven't found anything. They both have LTE 700 MHZ Class 13.

Only thing I can suggest to the OP is to make sure he has the latest radio.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vinnyjr:
not complaining about the speed but the major difference in the two phones at the same location using the same sim card. I am running the latest Jelly Bean update. I have several phones on different carriers and am very familiar with rooting a phone. I did get the phone from Verizon and paid full price because I wanted the Nexus. I have had all of the Nexus phones but never got this latest until now. Love the feeling of the latest update and didn't realize how much I missed the pure Google Android experience until I started going thru the phone. Now I just want to make sure I have a solid phone before I start getting too involved with it. If I have to swap it back, I will, just hate going thru that whole process.

Thanks for all the input,

Vinny
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ti-force:
So basically it looks like a lot on paper, but not so much in practice. Sounds like this is a common occurrence with these phones.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adamhlj:
I remember when I first looked into the GNEX on verizon. At the store, it would get the slowest 4G speeds. The sales person tried to get me to look into the droid razr maxx or something which had much higher 4G speeds. And I have heard that with the verizon GNEX, it has a few issues with LTE. Even at the store, I could see that it had a hard time switching back and forth between 3G and 4G.

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] selva.simple:
Its a proximity sensor which might have been activated by any app. Do u have Viper app installed? If so, uninstall it and check (and probably with a reboot).

[Motorola Droid RAZR] bradleonard:
I just received a "like new" replacement Motorola Droid Razr MAXX from Verizon. I inserted a brand new San Disk Class 4 32 GB Micro SD card. It immediately said "Preparing SD Card, Checking for errors" which is something my old broken phone was doing. It will show this indefinitely and never actually mount the card.

I then put the card in my computer and it showed up correctly and formatted as FAT32. I was able to copy some test files to it without issue. I put it back in the phone, still doesn't work.

I then put it back in the computer and reformatted it as NTFS, put it back in the phone and finally got the phone to at least acknowledge it's existence. It said that it was an invalid format and prompted a format. I initiated a format which did complete. After the format it showed the same previous message again, "Preparing SD Card, Checking for errors."

I put the card back in the computer and noticed that the phone had changed the card name to "MOT" indicating that it does somehow see it.

The only variables that are out of the ordinary on my phone are that I am have my work email setup with exchange which forces the SD card to be encrypted and I am also running Go Launcher.

I am running the phone totally stock without root. It is running 6.16.211.XT912.Verizon.en.US.

Is this a known but non-documented hardware/firmware issue or did I just get a bad phone?

Thoughts Please!

Thank You.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] 0razor1:
Think it's a dud.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bradleonard:
I will certainly entertain that idea, anyone else wanna chime in?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bradleonard:
I have discovered that the replacement phones were not defective in any way. This problem is 100% caused when I log into my Comcast Business Class hosted exchange activesync email. The Business Class Server has a requirement to Encrypt the SD Card as a security measure. When this occurs it causes the card to never mount. I cannot remember if I tested this issue with a clean SD card or not, but none-the-less it is a problem. There is little documentation of this problem, but I have found a couple of similar complaints. Neither Comcast or Motorola can explain the problem.

Samsung GT-S7568 China Model

Hi There.

I am new to this site but feel the solution posted would have fixed my problem had I found it before I tried messing around with ROM’s.

I have just returned from Shanghai where I purchased a Samsung Galaxy Trend GT-S7568. This model appears to only be available in china from my research. It is an original Samsung product not one of the many fakes out there.

In my attempts to get it to work with an English ROM, being the idiot that I am. I never created a backup of the system. I appear to have soft bricked the phone and I am unable to find a tool that can fix it. I am also unable to find an original stock ROM to attempt to get it back to the original Chinese firmware.

I have tried OneClick and I have also tried a firmware for the GT-S7562 (possibly what caused my current issue). I have found the Samsung official open source download page and have downloaded the correct files from there but have no idea how to prepare them to be transferred to the device as the “read me” file is not much help that came with the download.

Currently the Phone will boot into Download Mode but no matter what ROM I try The Oden Tool keeps failing at the complete Write operation.

I am hoping that I have posted this in the correct forum. If I not I am sorry but it is the closest I could find to my situation.

Any help or direction anyone may have would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You!

As I have bought a chinese samsung mobile, I can't use google play. So I'm trying to root it. I went through many software as Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v30 , SRSRoot for Android , SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse and more. I also tried to do it as it is said in thoses previous post but there is nothing to do...

I think it's because my mobile:

Samsung GT-S7568

Ice cream sandwich 4.0.4

Is only available in China and all thoses software may not support my device.

So here comes my question. Do I have still any chance to take?

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] xRedLeadrx:
So my Prime is completely stock from an OS standpoint. Not rooted, just a handful of apps. I got the JB firmware notification this morning and I went ahead and kicked it off. Things seemed fine and the android with the blue progress bar popped up after a reboot. I left it alone and when I came back it was sitting on the ASUS boot screen. It has been on that boot screen ever since. I let it sit that way for over an hour and finally tried to power it off. I can power it off but it automatically tries to restart and gets stuck on the ASUS screen again. Tried holding the volume button down during power cycle and no luck. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
Try the following and see if it helps.

Hold volume down and power button and when the text appears in top left just wait 5 seconds. When the icons appear on your screen use volume down to go to the wipe icon then press volume up.

Not guaranteeing this will work but it has for others.

If still broken come back and post.
