I've had my Galaxy Nexus for a few days and love it! But now I'm experiencing changes in the service. It goes from 4G to 3G and sometimes to no service at all. I have 4G service in my area and my phone is still on 3G.  I didn't have any service at all last night and then this morning it was still out and now it's on 3G. So i looked online and i see that I'm not the only one who is having this problem!

For those stating 4g is up in the Chicago area - its not everywhere.  I'm about 40 minutes north of the city and I still can only get 3g and thats if I switch to CDMA only.  If  I got to CDMA/lte  I will get nothing.  I try every once and a while and its the same.  So "Chicago area" may be Chicago proper but not the burbs.

If this is an eHRPD related outage again, you can generally get a consistent 3G connection at least by finding a way to switch to 3G / CDMA only mode on your phone.  On the Rezound you can go to Settings / Wireless & Networks / Mobile networks / Network mode / CDMA only.  On the Thunderbolt, you can do this to switch to CDMA only.  I'm sure other phones are similar.  Hope this helps!

 

*edit* Sorry for the duplication of cpodraza's post immediately before mine...and does appear to be eHRPD-related since this seems to fix it.

New radio updates are being sent out.  It should hopefully resolve many of the Nexus' reception issues.

Still have 4G going strong in Washington, DC.  Hopefully it remains stable and gets to all of you very quickly.
