Issue with 4.0.4 or phone? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I just got a refurb replacement for my GN from Verizon because my first GN had no recovery image on it which prevented me from doing factory resets and doing the 4.0.4 update. I just got the new one in the mail and after setting it up and installing 4.0.4 there are terrible data connection issues. If I have 4G turned on and begin using the internet in anyway, browser, facebook, etc.. it only hold the connection for 30 seconds max and it loses all network entirely preventing me from using the web or making calls until it reestablishes connection which takes like 30 seconds. Now when i'm not using 4G and just on standard network, I can make calls and send txts without a problem and it holds the connection just fine. Is there a fix to this issue? Is it a faulty device or is this a known issue for 4.0.4? Im going to go back to VZW for another replacement unless I get an answer here. Rooting is not an option because I want to keep my warranty because there are so many damn issues with this phone. Thanks

They don't know what it is. I'm on my 4th replacement device and still same issues as you. They said next one I can either get a Maxx or wait for a SG3 for my troubles. OK

gfropr, did VZW actually tell you the SGSIII was an option? I finally went in and they told me I could swap mine out for either the Bionic or the Razr and I asked about the SIII and they really weren't sure if it was an option because it's not out yet. I'm going to be very mad if they make me swap for anything Motorola and I'm for sure not going to get the iPhone.

They told me they would make an exception and I can get a Razr Maxx or wait for a SG3. At first they offered Mr a Charge or Razr lol. I said I WILL NOT downgrade.
They will not let you get a IPhone BTW.

No 3G, sometimes 1X

I bought a used DInc on ebay. I have another DInc and it works (rooted + S-OFF) fine.
The new (ebay used) will not connect to 3G. Sometimes I can force 1X to show up but still it or miss as to if the data will actually work. When it does connect it takes about 5 min. for the 1x to show up then. I have decent bars. I can force 1X sometimes by toggling Airplane mode. I have tried stock (day 1) RUU and the latest stock RUU.
I have also spent 2 hours on line with VZW and they pushed updates, *228, forced new IP etc. No luck. They will not warranty it since it was not bought on my account originally.
I think it is a radio issue (baseband) I have tried 1.00.03.04.06 and 2.15.00.07.28.
Wifi works ok.
Any ideas???
Have you tried rooting it and flashing custom roms? Not sure if that would do anything as far as the 3g, but it could be worth a shot
i have rooted it and soff and different basebands. Roms it self I have only tried different VZW stock roms.
I'm guessing you tried option 2 on *228 as well, and not just option 1? What does it say when you turn your mobile network on in your wireless settings, does it hang on "Turning on..." ? or does it just say "no 3g service available". Have you tried unrooting, putting back to s-on, and doing a hard factory reset? It might be worth it just to see if it fixes your 3g issue, maybe something to do with rooting/s-off before you program the phone. If it does, then try rooting and going back to s-off. Other than that, maybe just keep trying *228 opt 1 to see if it programs eventually. Maybe you'll get lucky. 3g network can get funky sometimes, theres a chance it could program fine in a few days.
It says "Turning on..." I have tried 228 both 1 and 2
I just tried unrooted stock and still the same. I also tried all the v2 radios and still same. Looks like I have real nice wifi/multimedia player.
I am using the same VZW line for this new droid and the old one. (one at a time of course) The old one activates and 3G is fine. It is pain to activate though since VZW makes me call a real person when I switch the lines. The web site to enter the ESN/MEID is not working right. I have been going back and forth the last two days quite often trying to trouble shoot and still use my good phone for work when I need it.
VZW said to send it to the Manufacturer and they should honor the 1 yr warranty from date of manufacture. Incidentally after calling 3 phone numbers I end up at PCD not HTC since PCD actually services HTC phones sold by Verizon.
Had same issue. Returned for a Fascinate. When I returned a Vzw Rep was at the store restocking phones. She said as far as reception HTC is their worst phone. Its amazing for everything else. I'd have a bar or two of 1x where my wife would have 3 or 4 of 3G on her cheap ass LG Ally!!

3G Disappears

So my Inc has been acting up lately, I've got 3G when I turn the screen on, but as soon as something tries to use the internet (sync, browser, anything at all), my mobile network instantly drops, and when it reconnects, it goes and reconnects as 1X. I've tried going completely back to stock (the 2.1 rom), and it's doing it even there..... Anyone have any ideas?

wish I knew how to purposely do that since my 3g reception sucks yet yours is doing it on it's own

But I don't want it to. Reception in this area in general does suck, but even the places I ALWAYS get 3g aren't working.....
So I called and spoke to verizon. I have to bring my phone into the store, so they can inspect the damage to it, to see if I qualify for a replacement. If I don't, then I either have to buy a "certified replacement" or suffer with no 3g. They apparently think this is an exceptable situation. I'll be going to get the boost phone with unlimited calls/texts/web before I pay verizon 135 dollars a month to not even get unlimited. The Android phone isn't as good, but **** verizon, no way I'm buying a new phone because this one crapped out.

Can always find a used one online if it comes to that; DINC's aren't too expensive anymore.
When you say you tried going back to stock, do you mean the RUU? I'm pretty sure doing that brings you back to the stock radio, but I would double check that, and also make sure you don't have any apps that might mess with your data connection.

I had this exact problem last year. I ended up having to RUU and return it for a replacement because I was within the 1 year free replacement period. I returned it with S-OFF and got a new one that I've been using ever since.
I'm apparently still in the one year period. And yes, I did the FYI executive and without loading ANYTHING it won't stay on 3g. I'm talking bare phone, no apps, no accounts. It did work slightly better though. I won't be going to Verizon until tomorrow, so I will try a few of the newer radios I guess. I've always been partial to 7.28.

If you go to CM7 you can actually switch to just 3g I'm pretty sure. I know there's an add-on for JuiceDefender that does something about 2g/3g for aosp roms.....

I have the same issue! Went to bed on Thursday working fine, woke up Friday morning and was having this issue! I tried everything but restore the stock. I updated the radio, did a complete wipe and flash virtuous 3.2 rom as well as ##778 and modifying my settings to find a different tower to use. The tower modification seemed to help a bit, but in certain areas!!
Verizon tech said the same thing that I should take it to a store and have them check it. I do have insurance on it, so it won't be bad paying 50 and getting another one. But my concern is that I won't be getting the AMOLED screen. I had my phone pre-ordered and love it. Not even a scratch on it because I had it protected since I got it.
Where do you live?
My problem was actually fixed. I tried the RUU a few times. What fixed it was going into HBoot and doing a factory restore. It made me deactivated my phone after booting up, but my phone has 3g again. I tried updating prl before that with no luck. So try that, see if it helps.

I actually just returned to 7.28, after using the newest Inc Gingerbread Radio, and got stuck on 1X as well. A simple toggling of Airplane mode On and Off fixed it for me.
This happened to me just a few days ago. Mine happened because I did a *228 on my Inc running an Evo rom. I did the RUU fix posted in this forum and it worked.

Still having data problems. No 3g/4g!!

This is really becoming frustrating. I switched to Verizon a week ago and had 3g/4g service for a couple days and now NOTHING. I called support (12/23/11) and after an hour on the phone, visited the store. Then after 2 hours at the store where they switched over the SIM card, gave me a brand new phone, and still having problems with the phone. So I had to open a trouble ticket to look in to my problems with my data connection on my Galaxy Nexus. According to the store, support said I am the first to call about the problem.
Store rep was on a 4g HTC phone...his data was fine. My mom is on a LG 3g phone, her data is fine. All in the same areas of town as well. Why isnt mine? Tried CDMA only and nothing as well. For about 10 minutes, I had a 1x data connection that was slow but it worked. No nothing, again.
If I got a new phone, new SIM....then the problem is with Verizon somewhere and needs to be fixed. I am paying money for something I do not have and its a waste. I understand there will be problems from time to time, but don't release comments saying the problems are fixed when there are clearly still issues.
Anyone else still experiencing data issues specifically with the Galaxy Nexus?

Was a nationwide outtage Verizon said was resolved a couple days ago. Was working fine on Monday/Tuesday. This isnt related to the fix to resolve the reception problems. I can text and make calls just fine.
Try disabing vzw backup amd google +. Stopped my phone from doing exactly what you describe.
I've been having the issue where the hand-off from wireless to 3g tends to cause me to have no data connection at all (wifi shows up, but can't 'do' anything like browse to a website and such, and 3g never makes a 'connection', but I know I'm in an area where I should have plenty). A simple restart of the phone fixed the problem, but in the long term, I shouldn't need to do this in order to get a data connection. Just my experience.

I had the exact same problems. I returned it & reactivated my Thunderbolt. I hope Verizon actually fixes the radio instead of just changing the number of bars that get displayed. My lack of faith in this is why I returned it before my 14 days ended. I hope they will actually fix it & I'l try again in a few weeks. You might consider the same strategy.
Also, I had bad data & signal before Google+ was even on my phone.

Everyone isn't having problems. Verizon's fix is just going to change how the bars are shown.
If you are having this many problems, just exchange the device until you get a new one.

I kinda doubt they are going to keep swapping out my phone over and over again until I find a working one. My original phone worked fine fora few days and probably is still messed up from the recent nation wide outages they had. They were hesitant on replacing my phone the first time.
Going to call support in a little while and follow up on my trouble ticket I logged yesterday. They better have a solution for me.
You paid $XXX for this device and you're afraid they aren't going to give you a new one because this one is defective? This issue may seem widespread because of all the complaints on this forum, but trust me, not everyone is having issues. Check my other thread.
Verizon already came out and said there isn't a performance issue with the device and their patch is just going to change the bars. So it's now or never.

Are people having slower 3G speeds on their CDMA devices? This is my issue as well. My sister's iPhone is consistently getting 1mbps> whereas I'm only getting ~100kbps down. Upload is worse at 47kbps.

I already got one new phone replacement yesterday. Going to call support yet again here in an hour or so and see if they have an update on my trouble ticket. But I would think it if was a defect in the phone, that this issue would be well known by now and posted everywhere on the internet. I understand what you are saying....just hope they get it fixed.
I'm having this problem too. I'll be on wifi at home, both wifi and cell bars will be blue. Everything is dandy. Then when I leave and turn off wifi the 3G icon appears and I have a few bars, but they are grey and websites don't work. I thought blue/grey just meant you are/are not logged in to google services, not whether or not you have data connected in general. A restart solves the problem, but it shouldn't come to that. This was a problem before the outage as when they were setting up the phone on release day in the store it took awhile to connect to 3G. Is this also why when I switch in to airplane mode I can't come out of it without a restart?

Tried it anyway, no luck
Phone was on 1x a few min ago and data was working, tho slow. Few seconds later, it switched to 3g and even tho it said 3g, no data. Rebooted and now it doesnt say anything...again.

Texts arriving late? ATT bigwigs on the case - please chime in.

I've had a problem where texts sent to me sometimes arrive an hour later. During the times when I'm having this problem anyone who calls me will go straight to voicemail. Outgoing call and texts are not affected. Basically it's as if the phone 'spaces out' from the network on occasion
Other members have reported similar issues.
What is known so far is that: It's not the SIM, it's not a network or provisioning issue.
Is it the phone? Is it the ROM? That remains to be seen.
I've gotten in touch with someone at ATT who is agressively pursuing the issue.
What you can do to help is, if you are having this problem too, please post here. Mention what ROM & kernel you are running, which state you are in and any other relevant details so we can see if it's a widespread problem. It is especially interesting to see if anyone running unrooted stock has it. Otherwise it could be blamed on the user
DEVS weigh in here - is there any way rooting can affect the GSM radios in this way?
I have problems sending texts sometimes and sometime I randomly lose service and the only way to get it back is put it in airplane mode or reboot i ve had this happen on all roms even stock I'm in tooele and data speeds suck there

I've had issues with call quality and texts not being delivered to one person, however I have not had any noticeable difficulties with other people, so I assumed it was an issue on their end. Perhaps not. I'm running stock rooted Android.
(They are also on AT&T.)
I've had this issue with AT&T since the days of Cingular. Makes me ::GLEE:: that my contract will be up in October, going to T-Mobile, unlimited everything (oh noes, data throttling at 2GB) for $65/month? Yes.
Also thoroughly documented here:

I've had this issue with stock, Inception, and now OsiMood. I'm in KY. It seems that it'll randomly chooses to ignore all calls and texts for an hour or more, and when it finally decides to start working again, all those messages will show up at the same time and calls will start to ring through. People who call me claims that it rings on their end, so it seems like I'm just not answering the call, rather than going to straight to voicemail as if the phone was off, or out of service area.
~Azrael's Kiss~
Not quite the same
I had this issue with a moto bravo a while back where it would "send" the text but it would never make it past the network, also texts from phones wouldn't go through but I could receive AT&T texts (data usage, minutes left, email to text). Ended up taking about 3 days of talking to AT&T reps that finally did a hard reset of some sort and refreshed all the provisioning. The last tech I had spoke to told me it was because my phone was appearing registered on 2 different AP's (micro-cell / main tower) and that it wasn't de-registering from the micro-cell. Not sure if it helps any but it might give you a talking point for the AT&T techs who can seem less then helpful at times.
I've had the problem with stock and osimood. The problem isn't persistent, and Sometimes I think rebooting fixes the problem.

Rebooting does tend to fix it. As does cycling through airplane mode for like 15 secs. But sometimes it'll go right back into that zombie state after a few minutes.
~Azrael's Kiss~
I've called ATT and talked to them and they say powering down the phone once a day is the only way to fix it... with a cdma network I never had a problem with texts or calls not goin through... as as far as stock or rooted my wifes phone is the one that does it the worse and hers is solid stock. Mines not to bad but I do get the problem with texts not comin in that much but very annoying when I pay almost 200 a month and the **** works half the time. Tends to get really frustratin

For a while I had the problem of my captivate glide not ringing at all, but then the call gets forwarded to google voice and I see a missed call. This was pretty common until two weeks ago when I upgraded to ICS. It has not happened since.
Text messages always come through quickly. Occasionally the email-to-SMS gateway messages were delayed for about 10 hours, but I think it's been about a year since that happened, so I think they improved the reliability of that system.
I kind of blame the modem firmware (the curse of proprietary software). It have happened to me a lot whenever I am using Internet, and sometimes I receive the text immediately when I am online. I usually send text to myself to wake the cellular modem up.

I have the problem once in a while but its also a cause from my network provider as they are known for it and others I know have this problem on other phones.

True. Unfortunately, there's way too much variables within the cellular networks, making it difficult to blame on who and what. Same with WiFi.

I've had this problem on at&t when I had my Motorola back flip, and now also on my glide.
Also, the g/f has had the problem on her non smart phone.
It doesn't happen often, but it does happen.
It was happening a LOT during the time when at&t was upgrading their lines and equipment to deploy 4G in this area. (We've only had 4G a few months here)
In the past week, I've had it happen 3 times on my glide where I will get 8 - 14 copies of the same txt all at once, but the sender says they only sent it once.
This could just be bugs in the official ICS release from a couple weeks ago, idk.

Really doubt it's the ICS. Either the modem firmware or the network systems. It bugs me a lot.

Just had this happen to me again, for anyone keeping track. Sent a text message around noon sunday, target received at 10am today... still can't get ATT to let me out of my contract early without a $1xx fee, even tho my contract is up at the end of next month =(

O_O Seriously?

FWIW, I'm on an MVNO that's on AT&T's network, but I'm using Google Voice for texting, and texts always arrive within seconds. I know that doesn't use the SMS system, but hell, I'm just trying to be helpful.
Isn't there a way to port your current number to a different carrier (i.e. Google) without breaking contract? I remember there being something like that, the stipulation being you had to pay some $$ in fees and get a new number (which you'd need for Voice forwarding anyway). Still a hell of a lot cheaper than an ETF.
I'm on straight talk which is mvno of att. It happens to me too.. stock, not rooted either

[Sprint Galaxy Nexus]No 3G Connectivity

So I recently JUST got my Galaxy Nexus, well I connected it to my phone line not even an hour ago. Well I am having trouble connecting to 3G or 4G.
I live in San Antonio TX so I doubt its my signal. I have a Sprint Galaxy Nexus, Not Root (I don't want to mess with it until this Issue is fixed because what if I have to take it to the Sprint store and they won't change it due to the fact that it is rooted.)
FG01 Update. ICS 4.0.4.
Can anyone please help me ASAP.
sprint wont help? why not call them on the phone it takes a long time but that might get you a replacement.also maybe try updating prl and profile and if all that fails contact samsung.
UPDATE: if you just put it on the line it does take a while for data to come on i had this issue when i switched to a iphone 4s for a couple days it should fix itself after a while. patience
Ok. I'll try to go to bed and See tomorrow. and the deal is that I just connected this phone so I doubt they'll give me a Replacement the FIRST day I connect a phone.
I'll try maybe calling Sprint Customer Support. I'll keep this thread updated.

good luck and they should replace it if its having reception issues, if the people in the store give you a hard time always call sprint ive gotten monthy fees waved before because of bad reception and issues.
OK, they fixed it, had to reset something like *#*# something. Anyways, is the Charger LED light supposed to turn on. Because mine isn't...

I don't think so, my doesn't turn on while charging either.
By the way, do you happen to remember the code? Since I bought this phone, a week ago, I notice very bad reception, most of the time I have like two bars and sometimes it drops the connection.
