Here is what we should do, set a date of May 10th 2012 for Verizon/Google/Samsung whoever to come up wit an ICS update for nexus to fix signal, call drop issues, volume issues etc , if come May 11 we do not get the update, return this piece of junk, I am sure they will be thrilled if this happens in some respectable number ...

Strangely enough, my Nexus works just fine. I have no reason to return a phone that works.
I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

The rarity, I wish i could have kept mine. You must live in a larger city or are at least consistent with travel. I travel too much and cannot live with the phone. I really did like it though. I simply could not drop any more calls with my boss, sometimes 5 or six times a day....

My husband and I just got them yesterday and they hardly work at home. I have to keep the thing by a window to receive a call. I am really hoping the update comes with in my 14 days so I can see if it helps any. Other wise I will be returning it and trying the razr i guess

I love the Razr Maxx! Its faster by a long shot and, of course, the battery life....wow! 2 and a half days of fairly heavy use before a recharge! Lovin' it! It will get ICS anyway and maybe it will work well by then...

Yeah I am really really hoping they update and I can see if that improves things any. I live in the sticks so not looking for anything amazing I just need the thing to ring at least. We are coming from an iphone4 and DX and those both worked at least.

I agree something needs to change. Twice now I was on the phone when the audio went dead and the verizon reps had to call me back right away. They both even created tickets for the issue. When's it gonna change?

I'm probably going to pay the kick in the junk early term fee just to leave, this is beyond ridiculous. Even the Google engineers are pissed, makes them look bad. I can't believe I switched from T-Mobile for THIS. I pay MORE for much worse service and a phone that loses signal EVERY TIME I pick it up to text. (Second phone, returned the first one for same issues) I LOVED my Nexus One and G1. SO SAD it took so long to sell the HSPA+ phone on Google play. =(
Why oh why did Verizon have to get it first?! I can't express how angry I am and how hard it was to not post curse words here. This is a sad time for Nexus lovers indeed.

I'm being sent my 3rd Nexus since I originally purchased this piece of junk on the 1st day it was available. Biggest mistake I made. Should have gone with the iPhone instead. How do I get Verizon to let me hand back this phone and give me the iPhone? I tried calling Samsung Customer Support today. They said I'd have to send it in to them and they's "repair" it. The customer support dude said this is the first call he's received complaining about this specific phone. Anyone believe him?

No don't believe them. I had a mailing label sent to me from Samsung to send my phone back to them. They said they would "repair it". They also told me it was the first they heard of the problem. That was mid February. Hmmmmm.....I called Verizon since I bought the phone from them.....they told me don't send it back to Samsung, send it back to Verizon because they are ultimately responsible. That was two months ago. I still have a phone that doesn't work as a phone because I have been promised an update since the day the phone was released. This whole thing smells. Google, Samsung and Verizon...........too many cooks in the kitchen. Each one doesn't have an idea what the other one is doing. I have gotten a real taste of customer service at it's worst. Just tell them something.....Sickening........I should have listened to my kids...........GET AN I PHONE.

agree, just read an Australian guy stating that even with 4.04 update, Nexus signal still sucks, so i guess returning seems to be the only option at this point.

Do yourselves a favor and send your samsung phones back to samsung. They actually fix problems. Verizon does not. Sent my Nexus back for signal issues. They sent me back a new phone with a newer hardware version. Working much better.

I gave up on the Nexus.
I really liked the phone and ICS, but the data connectivity was terrible.
I tried 2 different Nexus phones within the last 10 days and the data connectivity was spotty at best. My wife's RAZR (or my co-workers Rezound) would get 4G signals and I would barely have a 3G connection. And the phones were sitting RIGHT NEXT TO EACH OTHER! I'm glad I fugred this out before my 14-day grace period was up. I'm now waiting for my Rezound to be delivered.
I've heard the 4.0.4 update won't fix the radios. It'll just give you more bars...your signal level is still low (by dBm reading). If you're within your return window and have bad reception, RUN to a non-Nexus phone NOW.

I got my Rezound and it's AWESOME!
In the same places I had my 2 different Nexus phone I had 4g connectivity with 3 bars!!! The Nexus had 28% of the time with NO SIGNAL and the Rezound is 0% of the time with no signal.
STAY FAR AWAY from the Nexus.

"Have updated my Galaxy Nexus to 4.0.4 on yakju (in Australia), the bad news is that the phone's reception still sucks. I replaced an el cheapo LG P500 with this Nexus and the LG had some better features and way better reception, VERY disappointed with the Nexus. The big screen is nice, but totally useless without phone service. "
