Yep – they replaced it twice with certified like-new devices. My 2nd one had the bad radios – constantly dropping all signal randomly, even in strong signal areas.
The 3rd replacement didn’t have that issue, but the final straw was being at dinner with my wife and her Razr MAXX had great 4g and my phone had 3G with -120db signal for no reason. It never dropped the signal, but it was barely usable.

and now they’ll say that it didn’t sell well and won’t have the next Nexus device

Samsung hates the LTE model as well. $90 desktop dock, no POGO pin car dock, and now Verizon “drops” the media dock. Let’s also not forget the 5 months of not even a small radio update to patch up the signal drop issues. Shame, because I love the crap out of this phone, but the issues it continues to have, and the lack of support from its own manufacturer is too much. It’s time to see if another manufacturer has greener pastures. I’ll miss you, stock ICS. You’re beautiful.

A few people over on XDA actually mapped it all out, so it doesn’t make sense no actual companies were able to.

GNex is great for people that will drop the stock rom immediately and experiment. Otherwise, pretty shitty for ordinary customers.

That’s exactly why I’ll be getting rid of this VSGN POS as soon as possible. It’s been the biggest disappointment of any smartphone I’ve even owned. Despite all the hype, the phone just simply SUCKS…

seeing as it’s only available at samsung, i doubt it’ll be dropping anytime soon or at all. otherwise it’d probably be discounted and on the way out already.

but agreed that it’s really my only disappointment too.

Available accessories make phone owners keep their phones longer. Verizon screwed us GNex owners.
