As of this morning, VZW reported that they had a loss of DATA service thruout the country. As of now, 3G is back in most areas, but 4G is still down.
 
yup, was out all morning, just got it back as well. there's also the other thread on this too...
 
I need to stop panicking when I wake up to only 1X or 3G....I should check here first. Well, 4G is back up in the SILLY-CON Valley (San Jose)
 
SOOOOOO.....anyone have any idea why this keeps happening? it's quite embarassing to brag on VZW like I do, only for this to happen every two weeks.....Sprint people are laughing in our faces! :'(

"So what's the trouble with Verizon's 4G network? Verizon isn't saying, and it would be very unusual for a network operator to reveal specifics about why it's having a problem. But experts believe it has to do with the complexities of LTE, which is a much more intricate technology than its predecessors."
 
Yup, happened to me too. I thought my phone was a bust.

It's a conspiracy, Verizon may have taken the service down so they can start collecting new data from us....lol

Happened to me too, tonight. Riverside County, CA.

It seems like every time VZW brings new 4g markets online they have to take the entire network down to add them in. That--or by adding them into the existing markets is messing something up.
