From what I read from some forum we have to manually update to yakju version to get OTA update. You can find the step by step guide here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1391881. Thanks to the genius from xda-developers. I also tried to tweak some settings. see the discussion here: http://groups.google.com/a/googleproductforums.com/forum/#!searchin/en/*%23*#4636#*#*/mobile/PYt2Z_CDC0k/ZB7CHENL5SwJHope you can fix it. It is a nice phone.

I got the same problem. I live in Philadelphia and always have good 3g connection n my old nexus one.I got the galaxy nexus yesterday and it can only get EDGE connction. The phone is sold by brighton point and fullfilled by amazon. It was meant for Australia.

I just bought mine and am having the same issue. cant get on 3g or 4g. i have rebooted dozens of times and no luck. i know i have 3g coverage from my last phone in the same location.I will drive around next and see if its just a location issue.

So there is a trend here. I even changed the APN, but no luck. My phone was also from Samsung Australia. Someone reading from BrightPoint or Amazon should take a look. May be that whole batch of phone has defective 3G radios or something like that. Also, in spite of checking for updates dozens of times, the ICS version was stuck to 4.0.1, whereas I read that lot of people are on 4.0.4

Posting from the phone now. I simply disabled packet data in the phone settings, shut it down, inserted a non data plan Tmobile pay as you go Sim, started up and logged onto a wifi network.Haven't noticed any difference in internet accessibility. Hope that helps.

So I had posted earlier based on the seller's data. Anyways, I just received the phone today and this is what I find: This phone is completely unlocked, 9900 model that works with AT&T (USA), Rogers, Telus and Bell (Canada). Unlike what is mentioned in the technical description, it supports the 850Mhz UMTS as well, so you get full 3G speed with AT&T. This will not give you 3G with T-Mobile as it does not support the 1700 MHz band. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Does this product have the 1700/2100 band? The seller's description does not state so. Without this band, the phone will not be able to work on T-Mobile 3G. It is a GSM phone, so no Sprint or Verizon. Also, without the 850 MHz UMTS, it will also not serve AT&T. Hence, without 1700/2100 (note only 2100 will not work and listening/transmitting frequencies are different) this phone will not get 3G speeds for ANY major US telecom operator (EDGE may be present). Can the seller please clarify?

I was running mine on ATT...it was unlocked. If it says T-Mobile on it don't get it.Unless you are getting a real bargain on these now you are better getting something else

FRAUD REPORT! My Asus Nexus 7 4G Tablet is NOT 4G as stated on the original box!!! It's 3G/2G I found out 10 months after I purchased it. That's called "CONSUMER FRAUD" and there are attorneys for that. Just google it. There are 2 locations on the tablet to find out if you have only 3G. I will tell you all about it. I'm sure that it's happened to hundreds, thousands of people in 2013 or 2014. I'll be posting complaints all over the internet as amazon just emailed me that they can't do anything about it. Balonie!

with c6603 you will not get 3g and not even dream about LTE. im in NW florida and i tried at&t, tmobile and net10. all i got is 2g (edge) after change APN set many times, nothing... probably somewhere in the world yes but not in US. in my experience

Hi Julia! Please double check directly with your carrier to ensure compatibility. This model is the international version of the phone and data only works on the EDGE network while inside the US and it's REALLY, REALLY slow.

Hi. Idk if is gonna work or not, I tested with the Tmobile 4G LTE broadband sim card the speed is slow on this device, I mean is very. ... very slow, on the monitor show only 2G speed, not 3G as advertised. I guess you can contact the seller, maybe they will give you the answer.

Good afternoon. The phone I purchased was unlocked. I'm not sure about the sim, but thought it was called a nano sim. TMobile provided it at no charge when I took my phone in and signed up for a plan. "up 4G signal?" That's not really a question. "is the one shown in the photos?" -- again, that's not really a question, but a fragment. If it helps, my phone looks exactly like the one in the photo.

I actually am using it through T-Mobile. Mine came in a sealed box. Another reviewer said that it only uses EDGE. Mine uses 4G and it is FAST (through T-Mobile, again). I still love the phone after having it for a couple weeks. It is a workhorse and I trust it much more than my previous Android.

Works great for me on t-mobile! I'm consistently getting HSPA+ speeds around 21 mbps. I do live downtown though so I can't attest to more rural areas but then that's always been a weakness for T-mobile

Yes, I see some people say they don't sell a nano sim but the sims I got in a package at Dollar General had a nano for TMobile and AT&T. From what I read on the net the biggest problem is setting up mms. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. If you have bad AT&T in your area you will have bad AT&T on net10 because they use AT&T. I didn't realize that and thought I was going to Net 10 towers but Net10 has no towers they operate off other phone companies towers.

I purchased an unlocked att phone and at the time T-Mobile was upgrading their lte service in my area (sw ct). I was only getting 4G, no lte, so I switched to a different phone. I don't know enough about the cellular bands to guarantee compatibility.

I dont honestly know that answer to that but it may have something to do with there being differences between the atnt verizon and t mobile versions

I'm using a T-Mobile sim card. Usually have 3G, but do get "H+" with all 4 bars lit up meaning 4G according to my T-Mobile store.

T-Mobile is expected to come out with their own version of the phone, which WILL support T-Mobile's 1700MHz band. So don't buy this model if you want to use it on T-Mobile's network - wait for T_mobile's version.
