  1. Very cool. Can't wait. danielholt: Really bad timing for you since you said you are leaving the Atlanta/Athens area. I guess you are going to a undisclosed non-LTE location? Mav.
  2. Ouch. Glad I got the Galaxy Nexus, but to each his own. Mav.
  3. You may have a lemon. Have you tried to exchange it for another one? I have heard that often helps others in similar straights. Mav. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Nexus 6.
  4. Got mine on release week and have has ZERO problems. Signal good. WiFi good. Call clarity good. The only minor wrinkle was, not surpringly, the battery which I solved with a Seidio 3800 mAh extended battery. Numbers below: It is the best phone that I have had. Mav.

  5. I hear that Apple is trying to pull another EVO and are trying to stop the SGS3 imports/sale. Mav. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Nexus 6.
  6. Watching. Tracking. Monitoring. Seeing. Knowing. Hoping. Praying. LTE IN THE ATL!!! I can feel it, coming in the air tonight. Hold on. Mav.

  16. Robert, I am quoting you back to you but is this the OTA info that you are referring to?: "It is anticipated that Sprint will offer sometime in June the ability for the Galaxy Nexus to go into LTE Self Discovery mode, where the device will be able to search for a LTE signal on it is own, and turn LTE off itself automatically if it cannot connect to LTE 1900. This would be a pretty desirable setting. Keeping a LTE signal when at all possible, but minimizing the battery drain of just leaving the LTE on all the time. This will be particularly important during the phase while Sprint is in the process of adding service in your area. Self discovery mode is likely to be added via an OTA. Another aspect of the Galaxy Nexus is that it fully supports eHRPD. This is the protocol established to allow 3G EVDO to seamlessly handoff to 4G LTE. Back and forth. This will be especially helpful in travelling in and out of LTE service while it is under deployment. The eHRPD will be a welcome improvement over the handoff failures that customers often complained about between 3G EVDO and 4G WiMax. Let's hope that Sprint's eHRPD is more successful than Verizon's. Which is often one of the culprits heard blamed for Verizon's LTE outages that keep occurring." This is from your article: http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/entry-117-confirmed-sprint-targeting-april-15th-for-galaxy-nexus-launch/ Thanks. Mav.
  17. Don't let the bad apples spoil it for you and us. Personally, I find your info very informative. Granted I am in the ATL area so it interests me more than others. Keep up the good work. Do you leave the CDMA/LTE on all the time? Is it affecting your battery life? Thanks. Mav.
  18. I was in Athens today and tried my 4G and did not get any signal. Not surprising, but I tried. Robert, if you are able to tell me anything about the tower I mentioned above, that would be cool. Thanks. Mav.
  19. I could not find the edit button. According to Google Maps, the approximate address is across the street from: 1909 Hwy 82 Statham, GA 30666 Mav.
  20. Robert, I cannot get close enough to the tower near my home. I don't even know whose tower it is. Here is the Longitude and Latitude: Lat: N 34 deg 00'15.431" Lon: W 083 deg 34'50.781" I hope this is understandable and finds you the tower I am speaking of. Let me know if you need any other info. Thanks. Mav.
