About LinkBacksI had the Droid Razr Maxx for a month and really enjoyed it. However, I regretted not going with the GNex from the beginning. I finally sold the Maxx and picked up the Nexus. I knew I would take a big hit when it comes to battery, but figured all of the intangibles the Nexus had would out way the battery life. I love the display, ICS, ROMS, etc, but the signal strength, data loss and dropped calls are killing me! Did I make a bad decision to switch? Is there anything I can do to fix some of these problems? Any input would be appreciated!

03-05-2012 10:34 PMYou trade a phone with great reception, that lasts all day long for a phone that supposedly has intangibles, but you can't use it as a phone? And it dies so quick that those intangibles do you no good. I'm sorry, but I'll take my Razr Maxx cellphone all day long over the Nexus.... I do hope you get the issues fixed though. I bet the Nexus is great for the most part.

03-05-2012 10:39 PMMy Nexus is flawless after the 4.0.4 radios. I would try installing them. Most people have noticed improvements with the new radios. It fixed ALL of my signal/data issues.

03-06-2012 10:49 AMDepending on how frequently you're dropping data it may be a hardware issue. I was following THIS thread over on another forum ... it was an interesting read.
As stated above, I also notice a GREAT improvement once I flashed the 4.0.4 ROM and Radios ... not sure you want to root the device first to test this out though ...
Good luck! -

03-06-2012 11:20 AMI've heard people talking about these signal issues, but I've never had a problem, and I wouldn't give up mine for the world! Maybe you a should try trading it for another one.
