IMM76K to IMM76Q

**smbrooks32** · 07-16-2012, 10:12 PM

Has anyone revived this OTA update from VZW yet its under settings/about phone/build number IM only interested in non root PLZ reply thanks

**dmmarck** · 07-16-2012, 10:37 PM

I don't think it was pushed, was it?

**smbrooks32** · 07-16-2012, 10:44 PM

IM have some severe issues with my connectivity its dropping the 3g data and voice like 15x a day and I Only ask because the tech support on verizon is saying that this immk76q is to fix some of bugs. The thing that puzzles me is the size is only 745kb thats pretty small and she wants me to do a factory reset to fix this and not install any of my apps

**dmmarck** · 07-16-2012, 10:55 PM

That's not going to fix your bugs; sounds like hardware/bad network.

By the way congrats your name was thrown around in the AC news and I read it on my pulse . It was for your aosp build tutorial on the nexus

Thank you, I appreciate it.

Let me know if you want to unlock/root. But unfortunately, it seems like you may have a bad device

**smbrooks32** · 07-16-2012, 11:12 PM

IM going to be 100% honest. I bought my nexus 15 days after release, and for 7 months iv not had one month with no problems with connectivity. this is an everyday issue. And iv jumped through all these hoops I got tired of listening to the verizon help people, and started looking for my own answers iv found a lot of interesting info but the girl today told me to do a factory reset and not download any of my apps. I told her I'd done that and I also put into safe mode and neither helped and it still messes up and drops connectivity.

**dmmarck** · 07-16-2012, 11:12 PM

Are you on 4.0.4?

**smbrooks32** · 07-16-2012, 11:18 PM

Yes I have been. they keep trying to push the razr on me "not maxx" and I keep telling them that it's a dead technology at it's only a 1ghz processor and that it won't be able to run any future updates on the android software besides ICS and run stable and I never wanted it in the first place.

Just clarification on the razr... its almost the same processor. Its 1-step down from the nexus.. but the nexus is underclocked to the razr's speed. The Nexus has a 1.5Ghz processor that is underclocked to 1.2 (probably for battery life). The Razr has the same generation processor clocked at 1.2Ghz and operates at 1.2Ghz... not saying it will be updated, as the last thing verizon wants to give you is system updates.

**smbrooks32** · 07-16-2012, 11:31 PM

The razr is a T I omap3340 which is a 1ghz thats overclocked to be a 1.2 and the nexus is a T I omap 3360 which is a 1.5

**dmmarck** · 07-16-2012, 11:31 PM

I thought the GN was 1.6 underclocked? Regardless, same methodology lol

**smbrooks32** · 07-16-2012, 11:35 PM

LOL not even where this topic was but I did my reading on it anyway do u think if the problem IM having is caused by my radio and could I root a different radio it would help

**dmmarck** · 07-16-2012, 11:36 PM

Go to your About Phone--what does it say under baseband?

**smbrooks32** · 07-16-2012, 11:43 PM

1515.10 v . Fc04 / 1515.fc05

That's the newest radio out and, you are still having problems?

This radio helped my phone out greatly! I would fight with Verizon and get a different phone!

My Banned Galaxy Nexus :-)

**smbrooks32** · 07-16-2012, 11:51 PM

The only phone that I feel would be fair to switch into is the S3

**smbrooks32** · 07-16-2012, 11:52 PM

Every day

**trlovejoy** · 07-17-2012, 12:02 PM

This thread prompted two questions:
I am running Vicious JB 4.1.1 and the Baseband is 1515.09 V.FC04/1515.FC05.
Am I out of date?
And two, is there a good app to set clock speed on the JB GN? Would it be a good idea to go to the native clock speed?

That's not going to happen. Newer hardware, newer phone, different levels in Verizon's eyes. At best you're getting a MAXX, at worst a CLN replacement.

No. The 9 and 10 discrepancy is a hardware revision and has nothing to do with software.

Yes, SetCPU and kernel apps like franco Kernel updater and Trinity Kernel Toolbox will do it. Some roms have that stuff built in as well...

**smbrooks32** · 07-17-2012, 12:17 PM

What I want is my phone to run like everyone's else's if I was Samsung I would looking into letting VZW carry the nexus line

**smbrooks32** · 07-17-2012, 12:19 PM

Do u think that rooting could maybe fix my issues I'm having?

unfortunately, bad signal is fairly common issue with this phone...some dont have the problem (like me thankfully) but some do.

you are running the latest radio so rooting and throwing a ROM on there isn't going to make much if any difference.

there is a couple things you can do though.
how are the phones in the store (gnex phones) does you phone have the same signal or worse signal. if worse, you know it is something to do with your phone.

try to replace the SIM card at the store (will be free and quick) if that doesn't fix it you can manually update your PRL.
i did this and it helped quite a bit actually
power down your phone and pull the SIM card out.
boot up your phone and wait a minute or so.
shut down the phone
put the SIM back in and boot up again.
this should change the PRL # and see if that changes the signal. it helped mine dramatically in places around town (where before i would be on crappy 3g and now have a strong 4g signal...other areas were unaffected )

if neither of those fixes the issue, try a new replacement nexus...and if that doesn't work, PUSH for an S3. talk about how you paid $300 for the nexus and had nothing but issues and talk to them about the S3 being $200 now. PUSH PUSH PUSH...because i agree...anything else is a downgrade.

**smbrooks32** · 07-17-2012, 02:57 PM

Thanks yeah all the things you have mentioned I've done. I've also had numerous replacement all with the same issue. I'm gone from doing factory reset and not installing any of my applications, 2 going into safe mode none of which helped. Also there was another application fix I did which was *#*#checkin#*#* and nothing works. Ivy changed my PRL version. They also done something to the extent of the * 228 where it syncs data and voice.
