VZW users in the Detroit, MI area

Can you gnex users in the Detroit, MI area post screen shots of your signal info as well as your general location? I am going to try to buy a working nexus this time, and would like to have some info to compare with. Thanks

Good luck getting people to post their location

Judging by your choice of words I'm guessing you went through a Nexus already? How long ago was that?

Bought one about 2 months ago, wouldn't hold a signal- data/voice or wifi.

Well alot has changed since 2 months ago. The Gnex has since received JellyBean along with updated radios that are much better than the former radios, night and day difference.

Now if you live in a weak 4g area spot, then that won't change of course.

Well, the third time is a charm! I now own a perfectly functioning nexus! So far I love this phone, I only wish I could have been enjoying a working nexus sooner. I figure I will ride out the last few months of my contract with this phone...maybe something good well come to vzw during that time? I'm still hopeful that a nexus 4 may show up, if not I may switch carriers if AT&T or T-Mobile get good lte coverage.

Just to let you know, the Nexus 4 does not have an LTE radio in it, so even on those networks you still wouldn't be getting LTE. And I wouldn't get your hopes up for the Nexus 4 coming to Verizon, they botched the SGN pretty bad and Google is right to leave the big red out of it.
