Verizon GN Delay Because of Connectivity?

Re: Say it ain't so! :-(

I would suspect that the Nexus bound for Verizon has quite a few units already rolled off the production line, boxed and ready to go.

The idea that it hasn't been thoroughly tested on the Verizon network this close to the Samsung/Google premier seems pretty far fetched.

It more than likely wasn't mentioned yesterday because that same day Verizon and Motorola announced the Droid RAZR.
 
Re: Say it ain't so! :-(

They probably don't want another nexus one fiasco where they announced they were getting it, appeared on the nexus website, then pulled the plug. No official announcement until things are set in stone.
 
Re: Say it ain't so! :-(

Damn I kind of agree with this! The announcement was pushed back a week for god knows what reason! How do you announce a phone with no carriers?? smh
 
Re: Say it ain't so! :-(

I have heard nothing about what LTE chip is in the Nexus. Motorola pointed out that the RAZR has a new LTE chip that uses less battery and allows faster speeds.

Samsung wouldn't put the older, inferior LTE chip in the Nexus if there is a better chip available would they? Would they?

I'm pretty sure the Galaxy Nexus is the first phone with the TI OMAP 4460...
 
You would think this would be a non issue considering the stress they put on lte last night... Why would they babble on or hold a conference if the verizon testers had shoddy results? Smells fishy to me...

very good point! but remember ATTs LTE is here soon.
 
I agree that they probably wouldnt have announced it and the release wouldnt be projected in their system (which I know can obviously change) had it experienced bad results...it just doesnt seem logical.

November 10th (if that is the solid, real date) is still a decent amount away, Im not too worried about a delay. Most importantly I just dont want one, and need a GN soon :p

Nonsense. Motorola's solution is homegrown, and the same as the one in the Bionic. There's no way Samsung could use it, and there's no way they would have anything else ready in time for launch.


These rumors are just that, RUMORS. There is not a chance in hell that Verizon waited until the last minute to get these devices into the hands of testers, and then told Samsung to fix it at the last minute and delay the phone. That just isn't how these things work.

Here's why we haven't heard a peep about this: The Galaxy Nexus is the first Nexus device offered on Verizon, and the first LTE Nexus device. It is a big deal, for Google, Samsung, and Verizon. Instead of spoiling that significance on the ICS presser (where the Nexus played second-fiddle to the new OS), Verizon wants to announce its version of the GNex on its own terms and in its own venue. We'll see it soon enough. My advice to all of you is this: Calm down, go outside, and enjoy the sunshine before Winter gets here.
 
I find it hard to believe that Sammy is having connectivity problems so bad it is allowing vzw to rethink its release. Lets not forget Samsung has lte experience with the Droid Charge. It can't be THAT bad... I'm sure its fixable if that's even the problem to begin with.

And here's some words of wisdom from P3 Droid. Listen to him, and chill the eff out.


Well I'm afraid I may be the person who started this whole storm. So let me add my .02 here.


I believe that the Galaxy Nexus is going to make its debut on Verizon. Is it having some problems, yes it is. Do I expect them to be ironed out, yes I do.

I only shared information with all of you because that is what I do, but I do not think you all should be acting in this manner. Its just a phone, and its just a carrier. You will have an opportunity to get the device somewhere and somewhere soon.

So please dial it back. This attention to detail is good for you and me. Because the ultimate goal of Verizon is to ensure a quality product running with no problems so that the network and device meet yours and mine expectations. In fact I want them to be thorough so we don't have another Thunderbolt fiasco.

So relax, and enjoy the new OS by watching the replay over and over again, the device launch will be here before you know it.
