Galaxy Nexus - Built In WiFi Hotspot Charges???

Hi, I own a Galaxy Nexus phone that came with 4.1 JellyBean. I am loving it so far, and as I was looking through the settings, I noticed that there was an option to turn on WiFi hotspot. I wanted to test it out, so I turned it on briefly and it did not seem to open any pop up stating that I should call or go to the Verizon website to activate hotspot. Does this mean the Hotspot is free? Or will it go onto my bill automatically? (I'm just wondering if I should begin searching for a good Free WiFi hotspot app, because I would definitely rather use the one provided with the phone.)
Thanks, have a great day.

If you are on the Share Everything plan, wifi hotspot is included. If you are on one of the grandfathered Family Share plans with tiered data, hotspot is $20 per month for 2 GB (for those who still have unlimited data, hotspot is $30).

Come on Nokia, why no built in wifi Hotspot ?

Why is it that even budget Android smartphones have a wifi hotspot feature built in and Nokia Belle does not?
Before some troll points it out, I KNOW that I can buy a third party app to provide this function but to me that is nowhere near as good as built-in and manufacturer supported.
I understand that the N9 has the function (Joiku) app presinstalled but looking at the other posts on here for that phone it seems that its not really a 'proper' hotspot, and does not always work well. I just ordered a C5-03 for my other half and was very close to choosing an Android phone just because of the ease of use of the wifi hotspot feature for her.
So interested to hear your comments. Maybe if many people here agree with me then someone at Nokia will notice, and we will all see a wifi hotspot feature in future editions of Symbian ^3
Now running a 701, beautiful phone to handle and use...now that it has stopped sending my personal information to Nokia via 360Panel [rolls eyes]

Haven't installed a host file addition yet then?
That blocks your computer from accessing the "crap" of the internet.
You need these things:
1: A free copy of TextWrangler from BareBones
2: TextEdit open
3: Select all copy everything on this page (bookmark it)
http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.txt
4: Paste into Text Edit and remove the lines
127.0.0.1 localhost
::1 localhost #[IPv6]
5: Do a find and replace for all instances of 127.0.0.1 and replace with 0.0.0.0
6: Select all and copy
7: Open TextWrangler and file by name /etc/hosts
Do not touch what you see there, just add some spaces at the bottom and paste
8: Save the file with your Admin password
Done, you have just blocked the crap of the Internet
9: update just that portion you added every couple of months from the same source.
note: the file is designed for Windows, so all you want is the sites to block to work with Mac,
like
127.0.0.1 fr.a2dfp.net
also because of a glitch you need to change 127.0.0.1 to 0.0.0.0 to work with OS X better.
anything with a "#" in front means to "ignore this line" to the computer, so those lines are safe to copy and use.

Looking for a WiFi printer that will work with my Nexus WiFi hotspot

On a recommendation, we have bought an Epson NX530 WiFi-enabled printer. It does not work with the WiFi hotspot feature of my Galaxy Nexus. The support tech at Epson suggested that we get a WiFi router rather than trying to use the Galaxy Nexus. I told her that I would rather trash the NX530 and get a printer that would work with my phone.
So we have 3 questions:
1) does anyone know how to make an Epson NX530 work via the Galaxy Nexus hotspot?
2) does anyone know of a different WiFi enabled printer that works with the Galaxy Nexus?
3) does anyone know if the Galaxy Nexus is inherently unable to work with any WiFi printer?
Thanks,
Craig

This website should be able to assist you. http://www.galaxynexusforum.com/forum/galaxy-nexus-help/8520-wifi-printing.html I use an app called Printhand from the Google Play Store for my Android tablet and smart phones. I have a Canon Pixima 3220 that functions great. I also have a higher end HP Envy D410a that also works great with printhand. The Canon is cheap at BJ's at $40 when I bought it. The HP is about $269 at Staples and other outlets. Good Luck

I am trying to connect to my Wifi Network. It is a Galaxy Nexus. I am trying to connect to this Hotspot. I have an iMac that works fine with my network but for some reason with this computer I cannot connect.

So far I have pulled the system configuration file, I have reset safari, I deleted all old passwords from the wifi network in Keychain I restarted both devices. I am at the end here and I cannot get it to work I have an iMac that works fine with my network but for some reason this computer will not connect. It is system wide specifically to my personal hotspot. I can connect fine to any other network (wifi) but just not mine. I have not changed any wifi settings. I have been trying to figure this out. I have a MacBook Pro Late 2006 model running Lion (10.7.5) So any ideas anyone? Please help!

12. At a WiFi hotspot, you can't get connected. The most frequent reason is the login screen for the WiFi hotspot is only able to be connected with a single type of browser. If Safari doesn't work, try Firefox, Chrome, Omniweb, or Opera.

Galaxy Nexus Hotspot

Just got my Galaxy Nexus phone with hotspot plan. None of my mobile devices can see the Nexus. Do I need to turn something ON?

He'll need to go through the "Configure WiFi hotspot" process before using it. (Set the SSID, security type, and password.)

Galaxy Nexus Hotspot timeout

Has anyone else been having timeout problems using the Galaxy Nexus Wi-Fi hotspot feature? I'll be on my computer using it and at times when I try to load a page my connection will time out and I either need to restart the hotspot on the device or turn of and on my wifi connection on my computer. Anyone know of a fix?

Did a hard reset, and switched to never on the sleep policy. Been surfing for about 45 min without a timeout (new record) looks like crisis solved for the time being!

Verizon Galaxy Nexus - Defective Charging Port

Bought my Galaxy Nexus in April of 2012, along with insurance on the phone. Love the phone and the pure Android experience. However, back in February, I woke up one morning and noticed that even though my phone was plugged in, the battery was not charging. I tried using different cords and my spare battery, neither fixed the issue, which meant that the charging port on the phone was defective. I brought it to a VZW store, and since the issue occurred within a year of purchasing the phone, they sent me a certified pre-owned galaxy nexus as a replacement (They had to send me three replacement phones total because the first two would not boot properly, but that's a different story.)
So here I am, 5 months later, and I woke up one morning and discover the same issue. Phone is plugged in (using the original charger that come with the original phone by the way), but it is not charging. Won't charge with a different cord, won't charge with a different battery, which means that the port is defective. I take the phone to the Verizon store, and am informed that A) my year-long warranty has run out, so if I want to replace the phone I will have to pay full retail price for it, and B) The default insurance plan on these phones only covers cracked screens or lost devices. The VZW support rep actually suggested that I damage the screen on the phone before sending it to the insurance company, because otherwise they would send it back and refuse to replace it.
So to recap, Verizon sold me a defective device, replaced it with another defective device, and now in order to fulfill the remaining nine months of my contract with them, I will have to purchase another device at full retail value. That's $600-$700 I'm expected to pay just to continue adhering to the terms of my contract. For now, I went on amazon and bought an external battery charger which I now have to carry with me at all times, which is an unacceptable solution for the next nine months. Surely there has to be a better option?

This is the same problem I had in the past and Samsung fixed the phone
under warranty. Since a warranty is only 1 year and not the length of the
contract it doesn't help anymore. I do not have insurance and the phone
has never been wet. I have to wiggle the port or reset something on the
connect to have it charge properly. Verizon was unwilling to help me the
last time I had this issue since I purchased the phone new from Amazon. I
would appreciate it if you could help.

BSOD DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL Nexus 4 Wifi Hotspot

Hi,
My system is a T430s 2352CTO running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.
I am currently experiencing a consistent BSOD with error "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" not very long after I wirelessly connect to my WiFi Hotspot from my Google Nexus 4 (LG E960) device. It almost happens immediately after I open a browser whether it may be FireFox or IE, with extremely slow browsing speeds.
I have already uninstalled the old drivers to my Wireless Networking Intel Centrino N-2200 card, and installed the newest drivers from Intel's website. I have also made sure I have all updates from Windows and the Thinkpad update utility.
Using BlueScreenViewer, I pulled the following:

This appears to be an issue going on with the Intel Driver, I found this thread over on the Microsoft forums that may be helpful to look at. Currently, it is confirmed that rolling back to the previous driver resolves this issue; although the thread linked is discussing a different Intel Card than yours, the driver support appears to be the same. Driver version 14.2.1.3, is referenced as a working driver. You can even go into SWTools -> Drivers to see if you can locate the base driver there. I hope this helps.
Thank you for the answer.
I have the same BSOD issue with the Thinkpad W520 (with an Intel N6300 Wifi Card) and the Nexus 4 Hotspot.

Verizon's Handling of Galaxy Nexus

It seems to me that Verizon doesn't even really want the Galaxy Nexus or never did. I don't think Verizon can stand the fact the phone is free of all of their bloatware that they love to load down the phones that are on their network. No VZ Navigator or Verizon Video or Verizon Music. They barley advertised the Galaxy Nexus compared to the Motorola Droid Razr family of phones. The fact that the phone has had numerous problems since it was launched and they the fact that 5 months later only their version of the phone is the only one not to be updated to try and correct the issues just shows that the Galaxy Nexus is not high on their list of priorities. They only reason I stayed with Verizon was my unlimited data and because Verizon was suppose to get a Nexus phone phone, but as unlimited data is going away and the Galaxy Nexus is a Nexis in Name only, and I highly doubt that Google will ever launch another Nexus on Verizon after this disaster, I'm going to switch to Sprint or ATT. Both of those offer excellent phone at responsible prices. I know that there is a relatively small percentage of Android users that drool over Nexus phones, but its that small percentage that sway people away from purchasing certain phones. I've already talked a number of people out of getting a Galaxy Nexus at my local Verizon store.

I started service with Verizon back on Feb 08, 2012 after being with Sprint for the past 12 years. What a mistake... My reasons for switching were access to 4Glte and the galaxy nexus phone. I paid the $600 for to nexus and away I went. Rigt out of the box the shipped devices experienced one way audio, intermittent dropping from network, and unexpected reboots.. I called Verizon tech support and the answer was we have not heard of any of these type of issues and you must have gotten a bad batch. I promptly went down to my local Verizon store that day and exchanged for 2 brand new devices. The same issues occurred... I then called technical support back and we began what I cal setting the hook game. I was told that by level 2 technical support to start marking the the one way audio voicing with ## each time it occurred and someone would get back with me within a week. A week passed and no call back. I called technical support back on several occasions and was told each time that someone would be contacting me. Almost 3 weeks into this adventure I finally received a call from tier 2 technical support stating it was not a network issue but rather a problem with the handset. They wanted to send quote "a like new device" to resolve an issue with a brand new phone and I said no. I went back to the local store and exchanged for 3 more brand new devices which brings me to a total of 3 each for myself and my wife. Guess what the same exact issues! We are now ell beyond my 14 day trial period and I call technical support again only to be told that now there acknowledgement of known issues with some of the phones.... Where was the information during my 14 day trial period? The hook is now set... This technician took me through all the previou attempts to include performing a hard reset and returning my phone to factory default. None of this worked. I was then told that there was no reason for me to continue calling as now there was a known issue and it would be addressed in a software update sometime in March. No other resolution was offered. I went back to my local store once again and exchanged my phone for the 4th time in hopes that mabe I would get lucky and capture one of the few phones that apparently do not experience these issues. The same issues. I am now up a grand total of 7 brand new galaxy nexus phones all with thesame issues. I continue to call technical support routinely and received a garden variety of responses that ranged from Ihaven't heard of this issue, calling samsung for update schedule, don't call back again with this issue as you have an open ticket, and finally the big one Verizon is not responsible for the functionality of the phone. Approximately 3 weeks ago I spokewith a representative and told them I was no longer going to sit and wait for a software update and continue to work with a phone that could not reliably sustain phone calls and stay connected to their fantastic network. She reluctantly agreed to send 2 refurbishe like new raxor max phones as a replacement. I received the phones the next day and when I opened the boxes to my surprise were 2 more nexus phones! I call technical suppor and they verified the order and stated that I should have received 1 razor maxx. They could not get the right phone or quantity rght. I told the rep dod not send anymore phones and that I would be reporting the lack of agrreed service and suppor to the Better Business Bureau and the FCC. I filed grievances with both and received a call the next dayfrom a Verizon "Corporate Manager" saying he was very sorry to hear of my issues and admitted that he had a family member as well that was experiencing the same problems. He said let me research your account and I'll call you with a few days. He called back on Friday May 18th and exclaimed the update will be to you next week. I asked how he wasable to confirm this and he said at his level there is means to be aware of these type of occurences. I then posed the big question... What happens if the software either does not launch or does not resolve the issues? His reply was that let's worry about that if the need occurs. So here I am again waiting for the legendary update.... He rally did nothing but tell me the same story wait for the update. If the resolution is not satisfactory I will be breaking the 2 year contract based on the pretense that Verizon failed to provide the services as related to phone calls and utilization fo their network. This can be proven by phone call records and time actually logged onto their network. The expectation is that the $700 ETF will be waived. Count yourself lucky that I'm not charging you for the time and trouble spent on the phone with your technical suppor, the inconvenience of not being able to make calls reliably and continuing to sell and promote a phone that you knew since January had a host of issues. I will not trcommend Verizon to any of my colleagues, friends, or family based on deception, poor technical support, and lack of a tangible resolution.

Samsung Galaxy Nexus Android 4.2 Update

When will Verizon approve the Android 4.2 update for the Samsung Galaxy Nexus? The slowness of Verizon to approve updates is inexcusable! And to that I'll say, "I'm done!" I am so disgusted with Verizon and their inability to provide updates to what is supposed to be a "Nexus" device. It's not like they have to manipulate around manufacturer software. It's pure Google operating system. Load and test the drivers for CDMA and LTE and then launch the update. At the MOST that should take no more than 2 weeks! Since I have had my Nexus on Verizon, I have not recieved a single update prior to 2 months! Android 4.2 update from Android 4.1 is so miniscule and, might I add, required no additional new drivers, so what is the hold up Verizon? Where is the Android 4.2 update? And, yeah, I know some techy out there is going to say, " well why don't you just jailbreak and load it yourself?" Because I shouldn't HAVE to jailbreak my phone. It's not a matter of can I do it, it's why can't I do it without jailbreaking from Verizon? They sold this phone initially by claiming it to be a "pure Nexus" device and it's been nothing of the kind ever since! So I say, "I'm done!" That means that when my contract is up, I'm return to AT&T! They have upgraded the towers in the area that I live and my friends on AT&T say their signals are even better than Verizon's. AT&T's new LTE towers download at faster speeds than Verizon's too. I would have happily stayed with Verizon if they would have only taken the Pure Nexus experience seriously!
To those who have stated that I've said this for Jelly Bean 4.1, you are correct! The only reason I'm still here is because of the hefty penalty Verizon will charge me for terminating my contract early. My contract doesn't expire until December 2013 so it would be a rather hefty penalty to pay. But Android 4.2 has confirmed that Verizon refuses to change their position on slow updates, so when my contract is up (as I believe I stated on 4.1), you won't see REDNIBKRAM on Verizon anymore!
It appears as though the Verizon "love freaks" just can't seem to get the message. I'm not saying that the updates aren't difficult, I'm saying that if Verizon chooses to use CDMA technology over GSM and that requires them to jump through hoops to get updates completed, then they should have NEVER agreed to carry a "pure Nexus" device, or at the very least, should have NEVER advertised the device as such. My whole point is that Verizon LIED TO ME and told me that my phone was a "pure Nexus" device when I purchased it and switched from a GSM phone company (AT&T) when, in fact, they knew that I would NOT be getting updates directly from Google as the GSM versions of the SGN do. At the very least, if Verizon really wanted to make this right, they would offer to allow anyone with a SGN phone who was lied to when they purchased it to exit from their existing contract without penalty, so we can purchase a "TRUELY PURE NEXUS" phone direct from Google or provide us with a choice of another phone (Windows Phone, iPhone, etc.) without having to renew a 2 year contract.
All I'm saying is that if Verizon won't or can't update the phones they themselves advertised as a "pure Nexus" phone, then they should make it right to the people they lied to.

I didn't go back to AT&T for JB in August because the of VERY HEFTY penalty I will have to pay for cancelling my contract early and I got the Android 4.1 JB update. Once I received the update and because the the penalty, I decided to give BIGRED another change at the next update. I thought, "maybe it was such a huge update that they really needed to make sure everything was done right." So, now here we are waiting for the 4.2.1 update and I'm still getting the same response from BIGRED as I got for JB 4.0 update. It's quite clear that VZ DOESN'T CARE about customer satisfaction. They use the excuse that they want their network to be the best and they want their phones to operate with little or no problems, yet when problems ARE discovered, it takes them months to send out the updates that Google has already released months prior. I have discussed updates with Verizon, Google and Samsung support personnel. I have even contacted Verizon Corporate and I fully understand the process by which updates are done, and believe me when I say that the update process at VZ is in serious need of restructuring. Especially when it comes to Android devices. But as far as this Android 4.2.1 update is concerned, I have spoken with Google and they have informed me that there was NO changes made to the operating system that would affect the CDMA or LTE drivers on the Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus, so there should be no reason why Verizon would not want to release the update. The small changes (additions) to the operating system would in no way affect the communications on VZ. So why hasn't VZ released this update yet. Corporate says they need to test the software to ensure it doesn't affect communications on their network, yet Google hasn't changed anything in the operating system that would, so what are they testing? VZ may have the better network, but CARRIER EXPERIENCE ISN'T ALL ABOUT THE BEST CONNECTION. It's about customer SATISFACTION and not receiving updates on a pure NEXUS device in a timely manner is inexcusable and in NO WAY SATISFYING! So when my contract is up, I will be returning to AT&T or giving T-Mobile a try on a pure Nexus device with no contract!

Verizon wifi hotspots and android devices

Are the Verizon wifi hotspots available for use with use with anything but the extremely limited options verizon supports with its silly "wifi connect" tool. If that is the case - it would seem that this preticular feature is about is about as useful as a gallstone.

We even sent the Tablet back to Verizon and received another one. The problem is the same, so I know it's the Tablet. I borrowed my Parent's JetPack and we had incredible internet. So, I know it's not our Location or our Laptop or Ipod!!
Yes, we have called Support countless times. They have us check a different option or they think they have fixed it on 'their end', but to no avail. HELP, we are so frustrated.
You might want to post about this issue at the Verizon Wireless forum instead: https://community.verizonwireless.com/
My advice for that though would be to double check your tablet to make sure the firmware is up to date. While it's apparently now illegal to unlock your device, if the device is already unlocked you may want to consider changing the ROM on it if you're so inclined. Sometimes the manufacturers's run of the mill OS has weird bugs like that.

I would like to use my iPhone 6's wifi hotspot to provide Internet at home (I do not have home internet) via a Time Capsule which I currently use the TC simply as a home wifi network without Internet to enable things like printing wirelessly and back

I would like to use my iPhone 6's wifi hotspot to provide Internet at home (I do not have home internet) via a Time Capsule which I currently use the TC simply as a home wifi network without Internet to enable things like printing wirelessly and backing up data wirelessly via time machine.
I have a Mac Pro, iPhone 6, iPad, Apple TV and Time Capsule. No home Internet.
Is is possible to have my iPhone 6's wifi hotspot used to provide Internet to my wifi network on time capsule? Has anyone else had success doing this? I'm not a tech head and really know very little about things like this. Thanks. Jen

You can have a go using a wireless bridge.. eg the airport express will do this.. you can join it to the iphone wireless running as a hotspot.. and then plugged into the TC wan port.. the TC has to be setup in router mode.. so this is going to give you double NAT errors.. and of course errors for all the time the hotspot is turned off.. but it can work. However you might find it requires you to manually connect up each time.. If you are really going to try and do this you will manage it.. but how fiddly it becomes might put you off after a week.
You will chew up your 5GB very fast using any streaming media even radio. So be very careful to track the usage.
Apple should have built in the TC the ability to plug in a wireless 3G modem.. via the USB but Apple have ceased to do adventurous stuff.
If you give up the TC as main router there are plenty of better products on the market that will handle multiple wan connections.. !!

Galaxy Nexus Data Issues

So, I have no 3g/4g data connection. Went to the Verizon store and they went as far as replacing my SIM card and even the phone. Still no data. I can text and make calls just fine and WiFi works. So they had to open a trouble ticket with support. Seems other phones are working fine (lg, motorola, HTC), just not my Nexus.
Anyone else using the Galaxy Nexus having data problems?
thanks

Galaxy Nexus Not connecting to network

Good Evening,
I just received a replacement phone for Galaxy Nexus. The phone is not connecting to network. I am able to connect to wifi but unable to make calls or send texts since having the phone activated last night. When I was in the store last night I was able to receive and send a few text messages but since then haven't been able to communicate using my phone. I don't know if this an issue with the service in the area North Attleboro, MA or with my phone. Been on hold for 20 minutes with customer service.
Thank you,
James

Thanks for the additional information jdeguilio!
No issues noted for North Attleboro. Please reprogram and test. To reprogram please pull the SIM card for one minute, then reinsert and power off/on. I see that you are using the same SIM from previous phone and this should not be a problem; however, if you accidentally touched the golden portion of the SIM card that could cause some issues. If reprogramming does not improve, try a new SIM card. You can get one for free at any Verizon Wireless http://bit.ly/3SdsA corporate store.

Galaxy Nexus can't upload sent images?

EDIT: This should be titled 'Galaxy Nexus can't upload received images?'
I've been getting pictures sent to me, but I can't view them on my phone..?
They're being sent to me, but when I get them they tell me: who it is from, message size, and the exp. date (5 days after I receive it) of the message.
Next to that bit of info. it has the 'Download' option. When I select it it shows it attempts to download, but it isn't ever able to.
I thought the images would come up straight away when I opened the message, but it's not all that big of a deal to have to select it to 'Download', but I can't even do that.
Anyone know what's going on/how to fix it?

Hmm.
Well, I had everything for the settings the same, other than the various things done to save battery life (haptic feedback and what not).
After I got on and was looking around for an answer to this issue I saw that turning the WiFi on and switching over to CDMA can save some battery life, so I did that as well.
I can try switching the settings around a little and see if I can figure something out.
Could you give me some direction as to what exactly you were asking me to change/check?
I can figure things out if you give me a minute to look around and give me some info. to go off of, but as far as talking about things I don't always know the terms and things people use..
With that said I Think I'm answering your question with, I had service when the messages were sent, I'm not sure if I had the WiFi on at the time or not.
