Verizon’s 4G network is proving to not be the “most reliable,” after all. While it certainly has been about the fastest in the US for a while, Verizon’s LTE network is not as dependable as we would hope (at least yet). A sudden rush of reports are proving that we are once again in a Verizon network outage, and it looks like it is a nation-wide issue.
This would be the third time that Big Red’s 4G users are left without data this month, making for a not-very-merry holiday season. We can certainly understand issues here and there. For a company that claims itself to have the “most reliable 4G network”, this is unacceptable.
Taylor (Galaxy Nexus) and I (Thunderbolt) are currently not getting any data at all (0G), and many others are reporting 3G or 1X connectivity. Either way, reports are coming from all over the country, as well as multiple devices. So if you have been wondering what is going on with your data speed, just know that you are not alone.
We have contacted Verizon about the matter, and will report back to you as soon as we find out what is going on with our G’s. As for now, let’s see how many of our readers are having issues. Let us know what network speeds you are getting, where you are from, and what device you own.
Could it be that too many of those 3.7 million new Android users purchased a 4G device over the holiday, and we are overloading the network?

http://phandroid.com/2011/12/21/this-is-just-wrong/
ReplyIn theory, there weren’t lying when their LTE network was launched. Back then, AT&T has no LTE at all, and HSPA+ isn”t true 4G. That means, they had only Sprint to compare to. Sprint’s network isn’t particularly more reliable neither. So, they WERE technically the most reliable 4G network in US — mainly due to the fact that there wasn’t anyone to compare to.
Reply TGeezy86Guest 12/28/11 3:21 PM Thumb upThumb down 0If LTE is true 4g you’ll pretty much hafta include Tmobile’s HSPA42, because it nets comparable real world speeds to a saturated LTE network on the downlink. (I admit the uplink needs work). If not, you’ll hafta stop calling LTE true 4g as well…at least until they implement LTE Advanced. Besides, Sprint’s 4g network being slower and less reliable than Tmobile’s “fake” 4g network is an afront to the 4g moniker in the first place lol

Reply NichGuest 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down -1This will probably get lost in all the noise of replies ,
Don’t count on Verizon giving any cash back or credit for services not rendered .
What you can count on is a class action lawsuit that will take years to work out . Don’t worry the smart lawyers will find you to name you in the lawsuit . When they win it will be for about 1/2 of your monthly 4G data rate for the month . Now for the sad point , the cost of finding you , lawyer fees , expert witness fees , the cost of sending you a check , etc …. your $15 reward will turn into a small check for about $1.12 if you are lucky .
How do i know this ? Glad i asked . History has a way of repeating itself . I was named in the AOL class action lawsuit back in the late 80s . We won either $22 or $28 for each person (can’t exactly remember the amount) and after 3 long years i got a check for $1.12 . Included was a breakdown of where the rest of my money went . Lets just say lawyers made way more then i did .
Now off to my parents to try and explain to them why their Verizon wireless modem is not working …… again . I swear i will dig the ditch along the road myself if the Comcast would put the cable in the ground .

Reply StephenGuest 12/28/11 2:39 PM Thumb upThumb down +1No Data what so ever in HHI, SC >Droid Charge…4G tech support earlier today instructed me to perform a factory reset. Did reset and phone worked for a little while but then went out about 1 hour later. Did “speed test” after reset and it said that I was on a tower in Indiana or somewhere like that. This is getting very frustrating and I sure hope that Verizon fixes this ASAP…and properly reimburses their customers.

Reply LinGuest 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 0Trying to activate new Droid Razr in Greenwood, Indiana and it won’t go through so I’m in between, stuck without a working phone. Tried for an hour before I left the store, was told to keep trying, which I’ve been doing for about another hour now. What a cluster…
Reply rhondaGuest 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 0can’t activate, can’t even reverse the purchase and security deposit until the 4g comes up….thanks for taking all my money and tying it up new years weekend for NADA….can’t use bionic at ALL
Reply GF1FanaticGuest 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 0I walked into a coffee shop in one of those quaint (hip) Vermont towns yesterday. Everyone was on an iPhone or a MacBook. Apple is competing on pushing their culture. Personally, I am very turned off to that, which is one of the many reasons I prefer Android.
Why Apple is wasting their money on frivolous law suits strikes me as almost pathological (I am a psychologist). Spend the money on technology and advertising your culture, Apple, or whatever you are selling.
Let the best product win fairly.
Reply ryanGuest 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 0I have the thunderbolt in bakersfield, ca and i wasnt even getting 1x i now get 3g as long as my phone is a foot above my head. lol
Reply pitacrispsGuest 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 0Cleveland oh. Razr. No 4g. Intermittent 3g.
I’m growing very tired of Verizon’s network problems.
Also, my cousin has the Samsung charge. Also Cleveland. He’s had no 4g, 3g or 1x all day and very intermittent yesterday.
Reply gingerGuest 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 0had to replace my sim card tonight and evidently my local verizon store didn’t get the message not to replace sim cards because they cannot be updated because 4g is down again… so now i have 0G, 0calls, 0texts, 0 everthing…. sigh….

ReplyThank goodness I’m not Verizon anymore, that would kill me at work. Although, I do give Verizon the “king of coverage” title. I very rarely had dead spots with them. I just didn’t like their phones at the time of my switch which was for the “og” G1. Oh well, still would love to get my hand the Galaxy Nexus!
Reply automatic_abGuest 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 0I thought it was js me. I just started to do the research on today; the signal would come in then it would switch to 3G, that was this afternoon. Right now, it won’t even connect to my home network. It tries to connect & then it disconnects immediately. Is anyone else w a MotoXoom having this problem?

26Ari32 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 0My 4G is back (Galaxy Nexus, Metro Atlanta area). It’s a weak signal though. This is getting ridiculous.
Reply pitacrispsGuest 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 0Also, weirdly enough. Every time Verizon’s 4g goes down my moms droid3 will have connection issues. She called be today and said she had no data. We airplane mode -ed her phone and it came back. Very odd? She’s also in the Cleveland oh area.

just got “bug fix” for Droid Razr this AM (6.11.748 X912). One of things said it would give better 4G connectivity. R-I-G-H-T!?!? How am I supposed to know/test that?

5rzentz 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 0I’ve been with big red for 10+ years have never had a single issue, I’m also still using a Droid X (hate it, but better than a BB Curve) so no 4G for me. Not sure what’s been going on lately with Verizon but this isn’t doing them any favors by having all the service interruptions lately and it certainly isn’t helping to win new customers. C’mon Verizon, what gives?!?!?!
Reply billymac722Guest 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 0Tried to activate new Droid Razr all afternoon and evening. No luck. Called customer support – they said the activation network is down/overloaded. It won’t be back up again until tomorrow “at the start of the business day”. So, my new Razr is as effective as Todd Margaret’s sales skills. Southern NJ
Reply MikeGuest 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 0Detroit Michigan – No 4G most of today.
Reply Jose RomeroGuest 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 0I’m here in Riverside CA with no damn 4g on my Samsung Droid Charge. Just connecting to 3g and my girls Thunderbolt has no data at all. Upsetting, I pay for reliability and expect reliability. I urgently needed my data network for these holidays and Verizon let me down. And now with data charges not the same anymore, I should’ve stuck with Sprint. At least they stand by their unlimited plans and mean it!
Reply jonGuest 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 08:30 in Boise and still no 4 OR 3 g. If you are in a 3g only area it will work but if in a 4g area 3 Does not work because it keeps trying to get 4. Wit the razor anyway.

Reply RemyGuest 1 day ago Thumb upThumb down 0Just upgraded to the Bionic today. Sales rep couldn’t get my phone activated after a lengthy wait. He claimed it was just the cell towers in the area and said “as soon as you get out of this area it should activate just fine”. That was over eight hours ago. Orlando/Kissimmee area.
