1st GNEX - My original one. Something fried internally; wouldn't charge or turn on. Had since Feb. Returned.
2nd GNEX - TERRIBLE signal loss. I was losing signal every 3 - 5 minutes! Couldn't even go through a complete call or send / receive texts without dropping signal. Returned.
3rd GNEX - Again, TERRIBLE signal loss. Now losing signal every 10 - 15 minutes. Still too often considering my original one didn't have an issue. About to be returned.
But, the Tech Support lady I just talked to said that they would not swap this next one out. That if I continue to have a problem they will open a support ticket that obviously it has to be something with the signal in my area. I called BS on that. I told her my brother in law's Nexus doesn't have this issue. My wife's Rezound doesn't have the issue. The display model at the store doesn't have this issue. BS on it being something with the signal in my area or "something related to my phone number only" as she put it. HUH? I've tried different SIM cards as well, but nothing helps. I've tried other ROMS, other Kernels, even other Radios, but nothing helps.
I LOVE the Nexus phone, but if I can't keep a signal then it becomes a small, wifi only tablet. She mentioned something about offering me another phone as a replacement, but the only one I would consider is the Galaxy S3 and even then I'm not sure I want to switch from the Nexus. I just want one that works!
BTW, she said there are no known issues with the Nexus dropping signal. I told her to run a Google search and see for herself. If Verizon is that naive the acknowledge there is an issue (or that slow on catching up with actual facts) then they have some serious issues.
