What about the other users? Does that indicate that the SW glitch is not the only reason? It means that not ALL users were experiencing the problem. So the fix will only help those users who were seeing the problem. -- My BLOG .. .. Internet News .. .. My Web Page

| Re: Small network said by toby:When is T-mobile going to build a real network outside of the cities AND in the cities? when physics changes and it doesn't cost them 3x as much to cover an area with 1700/1900 as it does for verizon to cover it with 850/700.
Or maybe when demographics change, and when more than 95% of people no longer lives in cities.
If either of those happens, maybe then it would be a "smart" business decision to build out in Nowhere, ID. Until then, join the rest of us with ATT, TMO, or Sprint, and get used to roaming. -- "What makes us omniscient?

Verizon wouldn't have the coverage it has today if it weren't for the mandatory buildout requirements on 800 mhz licenses. I believe an 800 license has a 75% of the area buildout requirement. PCS/1900 has a 75% of the population buildout requirement. Cover the highways and downtowns, and your done with PCS. You do need less towers with 800 than with 1900, but you can bet that if 1900 licenses had a 75% buildout requirement, it would have been built out. The profitability of the mobile phone market is too strong. | |

 hullboyPremium join:2000-12-21 Oakland, CA | Not many problems here..
On day 1 I had a problem connecting to the 3G network for the first time. Almost 3 weeks later, I have no other network issues to speak of. And luckily no customer service issues.
I'm an iPhone ex-pat and I can honestly say that my 3G experience on T-Mobile has been better overall.
My Nexus One experience has been very good so far... | |

 |  patcat88 join:2002-04-05 Jamaica, NY kudos:1 | Re: Not many problems here.. Tmobile's california and new york city network was a joint venture with Cingular before Cingular bought ATT and got access to ATT's 800 network. Cingular made sure that Tmobile didn't cheapen out on expansion/building out. So TM NYC and TM CA are well built networks unlike other areas of TM. | |

 jmn1207Premium join:2000-07-19 Ashburn, VA | Howsa Boutsa Link? Where is the link to this Google support forum discussing this software fix? The link in the article is not correct.
My buddy just sent me photo of his new Nexus One about 20 minutes ago, on his Blackberry. The Nexus is still charging.  | |

 | | It's not the network You have 2 phones next to each other. Eg. A G1 and Nexus 1
The G1 has 3G and the Nexus 1 has edge.
Sounds like a hardware/software problem. You guys should no better than that come on. It's not ATT LOL | |

»www.engadget.com/2010/02/02/nexu···titouch/
Google's just outed a very, very significant update to the Nexus One that includes Google Goggles on board and a re-upped version of Google Maps that includes suggestions and a dedicated night mode. Much more significantly, though, they've capitulated and enabled multitouch in Browser, Gallery, and Maps -- great news and a big win for the Android community at large. Finally, there are some 3G improvements in there | |
