What does WiFi have to do with 3G or 4G/LTE? If you WiFi is down, then it's not because of VZW.

Same problem and time in Chicago. Which is unfortunate, before the outtage i had a speed test pull a 24mps down on my Nexus.

I am currently in south eastern part of the U.S. There is no 3G or 4G on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus & Droid Charge. Man I have only been with Verizon Wireless for a little over 48 hours & I just hope this doesn't happen often.
My wife is like WHAT?!? I CAN'T USE FACEBOOK?!? I told her it's not the end of the world, she can catch up on the book she is reading. She was like I know I am just kidding.
Secretly though I think there was some truth to that mini outburst, but don't tell her that. lol

This will happen at least once every three months. That's when they do their tune-up of the eHPRD protocol bridge for UMTS and CDMA2000 to allow the LTE and 1xEV-DO networks to work together.
Personally, I would suggest T-Mobile's Galaxy S II and the GSM Galaxy Nexus instead of the Verizon Galaxy Nexus and the DROID Charge.

Upstate new york is still good with 3G, can't speak for 4G yet.

I thought it was just my Rezound being funky. Ha! Yep, southern Michigan and NW Ohio EVDO are also down.

I am in downtown Chicago and live in the western suburbs and I am all good on my Droidx in both these areas in fact I am using my Dx as a hotspot. Current time is 7:20 AM Central.

Wouldn't help me, Sprint doesn't even offer 3G here!
26. Cwebb posted on 21 Dec 2011, 07:44 5 0
I'm on both and this Verizon "outage" is still better than my normal 3g on Sprint
23. jaabubby posted on 21 Dec 2011, 07:34 0 0
No 4G in Pittsburgh on my BIONIC - 3G though, but it is intermittent.
27. Cwebb posted on 21 Dec 2011, 07:45 0 0
This is ironic, I just hacked my Evo 3D to take only Verizon towers, and then the next day Verizon has a huge outage! I guess I just can't have good data speeds XD

I just got my 3G back in downtown NYC on my Galaxy Nexus not 4G LTE though
34. roldefol posted on 21 Dec 2011, 08:20 0 0
News reports are showing this only affects 4G phones. My fiancee's VZW iPhone is unaffected for example. So it sounds like it's not a total data outage, it's an eHRPD outage.

People need to know the TRUTH this outage crap happens OFTEN honestly far to much. Yeah verizon is kool when LTE WORKS otherwise they aint special.

3G is working in Phoenix, AZ, No 4G though! WTF, I was just enjoying 25 down and 9 up yesterday on my GNEX, now creeping along on 3G, lol!

Down in the Baltimore area. 3G eventually came back on, but 4G is MIA.
Thought it was just something with my phone till I talked to a coworker and found he was having problems too.

I am just getting 3 g back as i am able to right this and i thought it qas my phone i am relieved. I just exchanged my last one because i had heat problems and lousy worse than normal studder in every thing. This phone works twenty times better but as soon as i activated it had no data. Really glad because this phone kicks ass now

No 4G in the Greater New Orleans area. 3G has been rather spotty also. Droid Charge user. Once I leave a wi-fi area, I have ZERO data connection. Hoping this fixes by 3pm cause I am leaving down and need GPS to get to a friends house later out in the sticks about an hr north of New Orleans.

No. Have had 4G all day. Haven't noticed a single issue here in MN.

4g seems to be back in north florida... had 3g all day though.

Still 3G in Pittsburgh. 4G is out. Both are intermittent though.
