I agree with you, but its wierd that it stopped working randomly. The new phone I just got is working perfectly.

I can't confirm, the manager said those were the only phones the system would allow for an exchange but I was told by the tech that corporate stores(the manager I'm dealing with is from a corporate store here) were able to make exceptions to offer exchanges for any type of phone as long as there was a problem with the original model the customer bought. The problem is the manager at my store isn't tech savvy at all and claims that these 3 phones are equal.

In July, I upgraded my OG Evo4g in order to get the Galaxy nexus which was on sale back then. The first phone had a ton of stock apps force closing randomly (this happened right at the sprint store as the tech was activating it) Second phone on the same day seemed okay, took it home and started experiencing a ton of dropped calls. Thought it was an issue with the tower but only the nexus had this problem and when I took it to sprint they replaced it claiming it had a bad radio. Sprint offered me an Epic 4g touch or a LG viper. I took the same model because none of the above compared to the Nexus in terms of specs and features. phone #3 (Which I still have right now until I get it replaced tomorrow) Won't send text messages and constantly sends all incoming calls to voicemail. I filed a network ticket to see if it was an issue with Galaxy Nexus phones but it turns out I was the only one experiencing this issue. The galaxy nexus phones at 3 different sprint stores were working fine. Sprint took a look at it for around 3 hours yesterday and they couldn't determine the problem so they once again low balled me offering me a refurbished LG Viper or a Refurn Epic 4g touch. I declined because none of those phones come close to the gnex specs. Phone #4 arrives tomorrow, I hope it works I'm digging jellybean Sorry for the long post, thought I'd share my experience with you guys

Phone stopped sending texts and making calls. Sprint said that my phone was defective and ordered me a replacement

well this is odd, ive been on wifi all day and my phone wont connect to any data at all. My other OG evos are though

SID 5149 auth says none

thats on debug mode right? i may need to call sprint to get my msl and the tech did say something about the SID of the phone or something.

The icon at the status bar says 3g but in my case its not accurate, go to settings>about phone>status and check for 1x or Evdo. mines says 3g at the top and 1x in settings.

I don't know what it is man, I went to 3 different sprint stores and the galaxy nexus phones were having the same issue. I called CS about it and they told me that samsung devices had a different way of connecting to sites and needed to be configured by the engineers. At least the lady from CS is calling me every day to give me updates on the situation instead of saying "we're making network improvements" She told me she would call me tonight so lets see what happens.

MAYAGUEZ! FINALLY After all this time getting terrible 50-100kbps things are going to change!

Correct

Digi, I checked out the reason I was only getting 1x... Apparently theres a problem in the network database of Puerto Rico & the Galaxy Nexus phones. At least thats what the techs told me. I went to 3 different sprint stores (Mayaguez, Roosevelt Ave and Fajardo) and all of the Galaxy Nexus phones were having the same issue 1x only(All of the other phones were in EVDO RevA). I only got offered an LG viper or to wait for the engineers to fix this. I had to call to open a network ticket and the lady who answered the phone seemed to know what was wrong. She told me it would take around 72 hours to get this sorted out. But the good news is... I got JellyBean

Its the Galaxy Nexus with its crappy radios I went to the sprint store and all they could offer me was an LG Viper since its a compareable model -,- (according to them ) Also the manager thinks I'm crazy and go complain about my phone because I don't have anything else to do. This is the third Galaxy Nexus I've received from them.

Apparently I'm between 2 sites. Since theres little signal inside our dorm we are connected to two different towers. The evo is on EVDO RevA with -105 dB and the Nexus is on 1x with -86dB to a different site nearby.

Phone registers it as 3g as far as the icon near the bars go. But yeah, thats all we're getting here I don't know why. Let me check my sisters OG Evo and I'll report back in a few mins.

Nevermind, did a search and found it. Nothing at Mayaguez, I'll check again tomorrow by the campus where the cell site with the new panels is located. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

About damn time, especially for a Nexus device.

How can we verify? For testing purposes I was running CM10 on my galaxy nexus but reverted to stock 4.0.4 just in case anything got screwed due to having a custom rom.

Wow Omar, those speeds are great! for some reason I've been stuck in 1x for a while now at the bayamon area near plaza rio hondo. This was today while visiting my parents. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

Yeah I heard that the bayamon core was a key part to this whole process but I hope we get some improved 3g speeds soon. I'm a student at the University of Puerto Rico at Mayaguez and it just sucks to have 1 bar(or -105dB) of 1x coverage inside the campus. AT&T and Open Mobile have LTE and T-Mo has HSPA+

you were probably around a metro area, I'm at Mayaguez which is the west side of the island. I barely get enough for whatsapp conversations! Its around 149kbps and 601 ping

Hey guys just wanted to create a thread for Puerto Rican residents to report the new LTE sites around the island. around a week ago I noticed the site by the Mayaguez Town Center (posted by another member in another thread) had people on it working aswell as the new panels. sprint really sucks in any part of the island right now, hoping to see NV soon to get improved 3g data.
