vzw 4g outage?


Recommended Posts

Problem with 4g is with the way it was originally set up certain updates or errors cause for the entire system to be "rebooted". Since its already running in a bunch of markets it takes a lot of time and money to try and seamlessly change/fix it. You'll probably see 1 or 2 more short outages and one long one before June, then it should be smooth sailing. If things go according to plan you wont see any, but that'll be hard to pull off.

Older 4g phones switch to 3g when they think the signal is stronger. Its stupid because 2 bars of 4g is stronger than 3 bars of 3g. Ive heard stuff about updates to fix that for the longest but havent seen any solid fixes. Thats why people with razr's, rezounds, droid 4, nexus, etc will have 4g with no issues while other phones stay in 3g for hours after the service is back up and running. You can try a power cycle and a sim card pull to see if it wakes it up.

 

 

Will Verizon ever get anywhere near the international 4G speed standard of 100 Mbps Up/Down?

 

Thats the plan after 4G in all markets.

You don't realize what you have until it's gone.

 

Hard to believe we used to be happy with 3G.

 

Yeah...and I remember being ecstatic with having AOL dialup. I'm reminiscing now, like my grandparents telling me about how great it was going to the movies on a dime.

switch from lte/cdma to cdma only, then back to lte/cdma

 

like v8beast posted before i guess some of the og thunderbolts don't come back up to 4g just because the outage is over.
