[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ap3604:
Sorry my good sir, I just mistakenly took it as you were calling me a fanboy earlier so I was more high alert in my response. I apologize. :(

I can see both sides of the Nexus 4 not having LTE included. I personally am happy with the currently model but I understand if others wanted more. I also think that LTE is the future of wireless technology but I just don't feel it's ubiquitous enough in the states to justify the development costs compared to HSPA+ atm. Apparently Google felt the same way whether it be right or wrong.

As for you being a MD with a Ph.D in psychology, I might need your help as to why I'm so crazy about phones! :silly:;)

Since you said you work in NYC I hope you stay safe away from the hurricane brotha.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmozaffari:
Come to think of it, maybe the new model is buying phones off-contract and not being stuck with them for 2 whole years. After all, let's face it, the two-year subsidized model doesn't work well anymore; it's too long. So yeah, if it's just one year, maybe it's not outrageous to buy an HSPA phone. However LTE has been out for a long long time now and in 12-18 months, I doubt you'd find many HSPA phones in the stores, like it or not.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kotaro_14:
Switch to TMO or AT&T then.

I don't care for LTE, I'm on TMOUS and their 42MB HSPA+ is excellent. It saves battery too.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the1dynasty:
considering i have Sprint right now with TRULY unlimited data and amazing 4G coverage where i live (was averaging 9-12mb down and 1.5mb up last i tested it) for $69/month and am using around 5-10GB/month with +60GB being my highest month just a few months ago... and also considering i'm going to Verizon network in a month or so with also TRULY unlimited for $59/month... i don't think T-mobile or AT&T can even compare with their pricing... i'm not knocking their networks... well actually, T-Mobile has one of the worst signals in South Florida, even compared to some prepaid piggyback carriers... you can kinda see why i'm not happy about the N4 being GSM only... and jumping to one of those supported carriers NOT being a viable option for me!!

i don't care for LTE so much either... but at least having the option to work on cdma would've been great... i know its the carriers and not Google, so i'm not hating them for this... just sharing my experience and my options! ;)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funkyblue04:
Respectively do US people know how retarded their networks are?

Weird frequencies that no one else uses and CDMA which died YEARS ago everywhere else.

I do not blame Google for not bowing and having another 'special' phone for the crappy US networks.

US is what has caused so much Android fragmentation. Requiring special bands and phones.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the1dynasty:
can't argue with this... unfortunately GSM carries here are money hungry and usually charge a premium for their data or like T-Mobile, they throttle their network after a certain amount of used data... whereas most cdma carriers here don't have these limitations or higher prices...

Sprint has an unlimited plan that included 450 minutes to land lines, unlimited to any mobile, and unlimited 3G/4G/LTE w/o throttling limits... all for $69/month... if you want to get technical T-Mobile comes closest with $79/month for their comparable plan but they throttle their data... AT&T doesn't have anything comparable b/c they don't even have an unlimited data plan and for their closest competing package is around $140-$150/month... sure there are smaller sorta local GSM carriers that offer prepaid like the big boys and use their networks too... but you're subject to a sorta secondhand service... the similar cdma carriers that offer prepaid service is usually more reliable than a similar GSM version...

these specs/numbers/experiences is mostly gathered from me living in South Florida (Miami)... but i do travel to several states about 4 times/year and cdma has shown to have bettery coverage than GSM for me... Verizon also has the largest coverage out of any carrier in the US for voice and data...

so while cdma might be old tech, and i agree... the US is behind horribly with GSM and cdma still wins here!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordGenki:
My contract is up in a couple weeks and I'm switching to Straight Talk, so a low price without LTE is perfect for me.

HSPA+42 is plenty fast for me if it allows me to save $30 a month.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sololhj:
It doesn't matter if our networks are retarded, nor does it matter if we know they are retarded. We can only work with what we have. Where ever you are from, its great that you have the most perfect phone system ever created.

However, since I can't go & start my own phone company I'm relegated to choose between the 4 crappy networks that are currently available.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmozaffari:
I've been using community ROMs and even contributing code to them since my G1. Unfortunately all they get you is the minor upgrades. If there are no drivers for your hardware, no community I've seen gets you that.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funkyblue04:
I am from Australia.

Would not say it is perfect here. Just all three networks use UTMS and and mixture of 850/900/2100mhz.

Common stuff.

Hopefully they just bring a pentaband LTE chip that does them all in future.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joooooeeeee:
From what I've seen there's no concrete evidence that the Nexus 4 can even take advantage of the DC-HSPA 42Mbit. I've seen google specs saying it can only do regular HSPA 21Mbit. I've also seen others claming it can do the 42Mb. I'd love to hear an official statement on this.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I Am Marino:
Rather see the price drop.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red Wolf:
I don't worry about getting LTE since HSPA+ seems pretty fast. I am using t-mobile 4G which is getting around 10mbps to 15mbps. Which is good enough for me, for streaming, downloading etc. But 1 problem with t-mobile is that their upload speed is damn slow :p

Since N4 won't have enough space so you might be try to uploads lots of stuff to cloud
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osi13:
I keep my phones for a year. LTE is hilariously overpriced. People are not thinking about the bottom line, and the bottom line is that LTE is not worth the ridiculous cost.

It would cost me over $840 more per year to have Verizon with LTE, and 1GB of data. I use about 1.5GB of data with my T-Mobile $30 plan, and it suits me perfectly.

I've seen speeds from 8Mb - 12Mb down, depending on the area, so don't tell me HSPA+ is slow. I'm always around WiFi that's faster, and more reliable than LTE, with no absurd data caps.

For most people, there is absolutely no justification for buying a contract Verizon phone. I was with Sprint for 10 years, and roamed on Verizon for a year, before being booted from my Sprint contract. I'll NEVER go back to CDMA or contract phones. The games carriers play are just ridiculous.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supercakefish:
HSPDA+ 42MB/sec is not fast enough for some people, seriously? Really?

Also 4G barely exists in the UK. I prefer to have extra battery life instead of a feature I couldn't even take advantage of anyway.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theo1998:
Might be an expensive solution but maybe buy a (really) cheap vzw/sprint phone, and useit always plugged in as a wifi hotspot?

Here in Canada, our 'Big 3' (Rogers, Bell, Telus) are all GSM, and all CDMA phones are really old. Plus, everyone's like 'Oh no LTE?'

Well I (Manitoba) don't even have LTE! I've been on HSPA 14. 14 mbps max. I'd be happy to get 42 mbps phone!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmozaffari:
Where the US is considered for TMO and specially AT&T, it is not that 21 or 42mbps are not fast enough, it is that they are DEAD (aka deprecated) standards. Everyone who has them in this country has already started on their next generation network and they will in other places too. In the case of TMO, reception is spotty and while HSPA+ is great where you can get it, it is frustrating how often you get stuck with Edge. Normally you would think that TMO would continue to expand their HSPA+ network but they won't because they are instead focused on LTE now. In fact though not just yet, they may well at some point make decisions to ditch some HSPA+ towers in favor of LTE.

Come on guys, there is no competition. LTE is what comes after HSPA+. You may think it's not there yet or not all it's cracked up to be but it is certainly the way forward. Imagine having this discussion about 3G a couple of years ago. The same was true, it was spotty, more expensive and a battery hog.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VictorNYC:
I agree … I have an LTE iPad with Verizon and not only are the data plans killing me ( 5G for $50.00 that won’t even last me two weeks sometimes ) but i have to turn the LTE off most of the time since it just drains my battery like crazy and uses a lot of data on the background even on sleep mode and after tweaking my email settings and killing all my apps… 42 Mbps on T-Mobile is plenty fast enough for me on a screen of that size (4.70”) and for 60 dollars a month i get 5Gig a month.. I was about to get a GSIII on Verizon (120 Dollars a Month for 4Gig) last week but boy am i glad i decided to wait a few more days for the Nexus :) i get to cut my cellphone bill in half, don’t have to sign a 2 years contract and i get a better phone ! :) My only dislike was the no SD CARD support but i was kinda expecting that from a Google Nexus…

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mi7chy:
Prior to the Nexus 4 announcement I was already contemplating dropping Verizon unlimited LTE since it's been slower since first release and flaky with frequent disconnects for GSM for the added benefit of better phone selections and faster OS updates. It doesn't hurt that I'll be paying less $45 StraightTalk or $40 Simple Mobile.

I'm pretty happy with my $45 straight talk unlimited minutes, text and unlimited data (it's really limited to about 2-2.5gb per month then your thottled) on the at&t side of things. You can get the same deal on straight talk with a t-mobile sim card and I hear they are lot more lenient on data consumption. I read about people routinely using 5-7gb's and not being throttled. That's my two cents.

No, those are otas which patch existing builds. If it says UVALH2-UVALJ4 then you have to be fully stock H2 to use it. If youre sendiing the phone back you want to Odin flash one of the official builds, not the root66 ones. Also triangle away first in case your counters been tripped.
