I take back what I suggested with Nova Launcher - or any other app - disrupting the volume buttons. I'm going to reset to factory condition, and then test it out. I have a feeling it's at the system level, and not related to other apps.

For those with the volume bug, are you using Nova Launcher? I started getting the bug after I manually pushed the 4.3 image from the Google site. I had to unlock, so the phone was wiped before pushing the update and then it going through the upgrade process. I went one by one through apps I...

I'm pretty sure I read in another thread that the connection ramps up depending on use. At idle, you'll probably be sitting at HSPA 10. I'm in Queens as well, and I've only seen it fluctuate b/w 10 and 15. Maybe if I set a large download going in the background and then switch to see what...

My APN settings are the same as you listed BTW. It'd have to be a big coincidence, but it wasn't like had used a ton of data prior to changing the settings, right? Maybe a block was set? Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2

In the APN menu, where it says: T-Mobile US ............................. (O) epc.tmobile.com Is that bullet ticked for you? When I followed that process in the other thread, when I got to resetting the APN, that "processing" dialog box popped up and then the bullet went from ticked to...

No tethering issues here. Followed the instructions in OP. First Speedtest (before OPs instructions) had me at 6.7mbps down 0.34 up. After, I had 13.64mbps down 1.05 up. (Only getting HSPA 10) Can't wait to try at work where it seems to fluctuate between HSPA 10-15. I thought Manhattan/NYC...

I'm pretty sure CyanogenMod has that option buried in its settings. I had it on my EVO 4G at least in CM7.

Works perfectly in the Union Square area. I used to get 0-2 bars max on Sprint in my office building. Notorious for not letting signals through. Co-worker lately has been been getting no coverage at all on ATT. T-Mobile is giving me 4 out of 4 bars on HSPA10. (Speedtest reported back with...

:O were ppl really RMAing for scratches on the box? Maybe I'm being blind to there concerns, and thinking mine was more legit. But my box, as well as a friends had scuffs on the slip on cardboard part, and we thought nothing of it. Like, that's some irrelevant cosmetic concern. Sent from my...

Yeah. Not gonna return this one. But I think my question was answered by the whole Google having a policy of not selling refurbs. Still stands though that something is wrong with the packaging process. I wish I still had the original screen protector to shoot a detailed shot of how it wasn't...

No. No cushioning. Could explain shifting, and thus scuffing. But this was a good amount of visible scuffing on the lower portion, in the middle, as well as a tiny amount on the top right screen area. But there wasn't a ton of space in the brown box for it to really shift either. There would...

nvm posted in wrong forum

Hrm, okay. Maybe it *is* a packaging flaw. Or maybe they don't see an issue sending out reconditioned units as new. (I'm not that big a stickler about that stuff, but at least make me feel like it's new you know? Without highly noticeable imperfections.) As long as I have a standard warranty...

Yeah. I mean I think everything was standard packaging? That slip on cover part with the nexus on it The black box. With two pieces of black tape holding it closed. And then the phone inside on the tray, manual and charging stuff underneath. Micro SIM key too. Sent from my Nexus 4 using...
