- Courtesy of Mike Fields, here are some more notes from last night's WWE Tribute to The Troops tapings in Norfolk, Virgina:
* The place wasn't 100% full but close to it. WWE used a bigger set this year.
* Michael Cole and JBL were the announcers.
* Taped messages that aired were from President Obama, Katie Couric, Sharon Stone, The Rock and others.
* There were some people grumbling about there being no CM Punk.
* Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell taped a segment with Michael Cole.
* Santa Claus was indeed played by Mick Foley. Here is a photo of he and Lilian Garcia together:
* There was a moment where Kane and Daniel Bryan came out and apparently due to the ramp size, Kane took a tumble but quickly saved himself and kept on. You can barely see the incident in the YouTube video below, courtesy of user TheBiz9999:

OK, I'm Baffled!
My V400D02 was smooth and stable till an unfortunate "hard landing." I landed on the skids, bent the upper frame in the thin spot near the motor, broke a few teeth on the main gear, broke a servo arm and broke a blade off the tail rotor. To be honest, it didn't seem that bad.
After straightening the frame and replacing the broken parts, it has a vibration I can't get rid of, just enough that I'm hesitant to fly. It's centered on the main shaft, vibrates even if the tail rotor doesn't spin. I replaced the main gear, main shaft, feathering shaft, main rotor blades. Still vibrates. Replaced the feathering shaft bushings, no change. The main rotors are balanced to the thousandth of a gram, CG on the two blades is equal within an eight of an inch, tracking looks good. I don't see anything wrong with the main rotor housing or the blade grips. The servos are firmly mounted and the screws in the main frame are tight. I removed the main rotors and spun it up - one servo jittered at 2/3 throttle, so I replaced it. Without the blades, the main shaft seems to spin smoothly. The only thing I see is a little play between the inner and outer rings of the swash. Check the video - is this enough to cause the vibration? What else could it be?

Michelle Hunziker Bikini Pictures
I've seen a lot of bikini pictures over the years running this site, but I think these have got to be some of the best. Here's Michelle Hunziker on vacation in a bikini somewhere, sunning herself and showering off all the perverted stares I'm sure she's been getting from the locals all day. That booty is pretty incredible, no wonder her hot friend wants to jump in the shower with her. Let it happen girls. Anyhow, I couldn't let these pics go by without sharing them with you guys. I need to take a nap, I got very sleepy all of a sudden. Enjoy.

Gotthilf Heinrich Ernst Muhlenberg
Gotthilf Heinrich Ernst Muhlenberg (17 November 1753 – 23 May 1815) was a German American clergyman and botanist.
The son of Heinrich Melchior Muhlenberg, he was born in Trappe, Pennsylvania. He was educated at Franckesche Stiftungen[1][2] in Halle starting in 1763 and in 1769 at the University of Halle. He returned to Pennsylvania in September 1770 and was ordained as a Lutheran minister. He served first in Pennsylvania and then as a pastor in New Jersey. He received a Doctor of Divinity degree from Princeton University.
He served as the pastor of Holy Trinity Church in Lancaster, Pennsylvania from 1780 through 1815.[3] In 1787, he was also made the first president of Franklin College. 1779 he retired and devoted himself to the study of botany. He is best known as a botanist. Muhlenbergia, a well-known genus of grasses, was named in his honor. His chief works are Catalogus Plantarum Americae Septentrionalis (1813) and Descriptio Uberior Graminum et Plantarum Calamariarum Americae Septentrionalis Indiginarum et Cicurum (1817).[4]
Muhlenberg discovered and identified the bog turtle while conducting a survey of plants in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.[5] In 1801 the turtle was named Clemmys muhlenbergii in his honor, (with a common name of Muhlenberg's tortoise).[5] However, the species' common name was changed to bog turtle in 1956,[5] as the practice of naming an organism's common name after individuals became less popular.[5]
Muhlenberg is buried in Woodward Hill Cemetery in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.[6]
Muhlenberg was the brother of Frederick and Peter Muhlenberg, father of Henry A. P. Muhlenberg and Frederick Augustus Hall Muhlenberg, a physician, who was the father of Frederick Augustus Muhlenberg, the first president of Muhlenberg College.

2006 Ford Explorer XLT V6
ProsGreat family car for transporting grands and friends to and from basketball games. It accommodates eight adults comfortably. Leather seats adds to the overall luxury of the car. ConsThe V-6 engine's gas mileage in town wasn't the best, however, on the highway it was very good.
A Luxury Family Suv. — If I was in the market to purchase a family size SUV again, the Exployer XLT would be the car. This is from a person who has owned an Expedition and the smaller Exployer. The XLT is the car for my family. Primary Use: Family transportation
Looking for a Used Explorer in your area?
CarGurus has 49,693 nationwide Explorer listings
starting at $1,495.
2006 Ford Explorer XLT V6
ProsGreat looks ConsCheap material used, light body, light plastic, etc.
Not Much Satisfied, In Compare To The Older Models. — It was an upgrade from 1997 Explorer 4x4WD, as for the transmission, engine & mechanical overview, i would certainly give it priority, but as for the interior body & exterior body quality, it's very disappointing. Dash has hollow plastic parts, front & back bumper is hollow plastic, feels really cheap in compare to the older models. While driving, i can hear engine sound & air sound, which was the least i was expecting. Primary Use: Family transportation |
2006 Ford Explorer XLT V6 4WD
ProsEverything. Consnot having the more powerful engine.
The Best Explorer/suv Ever Built. — The 2006 year was a milestone for the Ford Motor Company with the redesign of the Ford Explorer line of mid-sized suvs. I had a 1998 V8 Explorer before this car came into my life, and I can not see what I ever saw in the old one. The designing on the interior is awesome (looking much like the F-150's) and the exterior is beautiful. The drive is completely smooth and Ford did an excellent job reducing the noise of the cabin almost to an inaudible amount on the highway. Safety is a must too. The Explorer comes with RSC which basically gives you stability in sudden turn scenarios, and has one of the best airbag systems in the industry. I would recommend this car to anyone who wants to enjoy driving and wants the best suv on the road. If you drive this car, you will never be able to drive another main brand suv again. |
2006 Ford Explorer XLT V6 4WD
ProsVery comfortable SUV. Has enough power with the V6 to tow our camping trailer. We have the third seat option and while they are only good for children we have 7 grandsons that we help haul around to school, soccer etc and it woks fine. Visibility is generally good though the rear headrests create blind spots that you have to watch out for. AWD and 4WD is good for everything but real trail work. With no skid plates I won't take it where I used to take my 4 Runner without a second thought.In heavy snow, mountains and wet it is a stable and safe SUV. ConsLittle repairs that shouldn't happen. Replaced Radiator at 45 k. Some under hood insulation and seals have come loose and had to be refitted.
Well Balanced Suv — The overall competence of the Explorer is what we appreciate most about it. Taking grandsons on all day excursions, a day trip to Tahoe or pulling our trailer camping it just gets the job done with little fuss. It is very comfortable. I am over 6'1" and 215 and the seats are comfortable and supportive. Having the radiator issue was frustrating on a modern vehicle at such low mileage. I was very surprised at the compact turning radius. It does it give it capabilities on Forest service roads that I like. If it had skid plates it would be perfect. Primary Use: Family transportation |
2006 Ford Explorer XLT V6 4WD
ProsHas a nice sound system ConsCan't think of any
Great! — Great acceleration and braking for a SUV. Has not need repairs. Exterior looks great, interior could have some re-modeling. I have been averaging around 17.5 MPG! It is very fun to drive, especially off of the road! Get it. You won't be disappointed! Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |
2006 Ford Explorer XLT V8
ProsExcellent tow vehicle, lots of interior space and comfortable for long trips ConsIf you don't need the towing capacity mileage is a consideration. Vehicle has a couple of annoying things in 2006 the front door handles were in a awkward position (changed for 2007) Throttle response is abrupt at low speed making it difficult to drive smothly in a parking lot.
If You Need To Take A Family Of 5 Camping And Tow A Boat, This Is Your Vehicle. — Performance the 4.6 is rated at just under 300 hp along with the six speed automatic makes for strong performing vehicle. Build Quality has been very good the SUV has 87,000 kms with no issues. With the switch to CUV the vehicle is starting to look dated but we are still happy with it's appearance. Cost of owner ship no maitenance except regular preventative. Mileage is what you would expect I commute 35 kms each way to work about half and half city highway and I get about 13 liters per 100 kms or about 21 mpg. As for fun it is obvioulsy not a sports car but corners and handles well with little body lean Primary Use: Utility (towing boats, transporting cargo, etc.) |
2006 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer V8 4WD
ProsNear Maintaince Free ConsOnly one maintance issue
My Explorer — i love the heated seats! nice and toasty in the winter weather. the only thing i would change bout this Explorer is the Wheels and addition of Fords Sync/ Navigation system. The only problem i have had with my Explorer is, it miss fired once and fouled out a spark plug. other than Regular oil changes it has been problem free for 84000 miles. |

Prosleather, power, 3rd row seating, great for towing Consgas gets alittle costly
Love It! — love the car, great for the family lots of power great for towing our quads and seadoo's, smooth riding even over dirt roads, love the rear air and heat plus the sun roof.. roof rack makes for easy storage. plus the keyless entry is a plus. Primary Use: Family transportation |
2006 Ford Explorer Limited V8 4WD
ProsSmooth highway ride, very comfortable seats, both front and rear. 4WD is a big plus, and snow/mud/rain don't stop it! Handling is very good for a 4WD vehicle. ConsAs with any 4WD, gas mileage is not great, but to be expected. 20 MPH on the highway is pretty good, but in straight in town driving, only get 10-12 MPG.
Black Beauty — Overall an excellent choice for a 4WD vehicle. Good size, not too big or too small. V-8 engine has plenty of power and the 4WD system works very easily. Comfortable vehicle for long trips on the highway. No bounce or jitter of some 4WD vehicles. I believe the independent rear suspension really benefits the overall ride and handling of this vehicle. |

ProsGreat Team Member culture that permeates the entire company - both stores and corporate. The benefits are fantastic and the perks are too numerous to mention.
ConsThings are changing, but not for the good. So many things that needed to change ago, are all happening at once with very little concern for anyone thats not a Global VP. TEAM members in the regions, the stores, and even at the global office are all tired and overworked. There's already a bit of an exodus underway.
Advice to ManagementAdviceStop, breathe and remember what made the company great: the mission, the culture, the purpose. You're losing that slowly in the regions. It will be too late to do anything if you don't notice it now.

Jessica Lee | June 17, 2014 | Comments
There are a number of different ways that small and medium-sized businesses can use Twitter to tap into the World Cup buzz happening on the social network.
The World Cup has only just begun, but it has already been cited as the most-talked about sporting event globally on social media, according to recent data by the Adobe Social Index. With 48 percent of the total social buzz coming from the Americas, the Twittersphere is a prime location for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) in the U.S. to capture and engage potential customers interested in the World Cup.
A common misconception among small businesses is that marketing around big events like the World Cup is only for advertisers with big budgets, "but there are actually a number of different ways SMBs can tap into events like these effectively," says Genevieve Wong, who works in communications at Twitter.
Take, for example, the Spirit of 77, a sports bar in Portland, Oregon. While the bar is typically closed all summer since Portland doesn't have a huge sports presence during those months, Wong says this year, they decided to do something different to capture some of the World Cup buzz and drive people through the door to watch the games.
On Twitter, @Spiritof77Bar will leverage Twitter Ads, specifically keyword targeting, says Wong, "so they can reach users tweeting about the games to connect with people who are visiting Portland for conferences, and who also want to watch the games."
That sort of advertising creativity is just one of many avenues small and medium-sized brands have at their fingertips to get involved in the World Cup this year.
Russ Laraway (@russlaraway) who heads small business at Twitter (and a former Googler) gave ClickZ some big ideas for smaller businesses to use on Twitter.
First things first, know the rules of the game, says Laraway. "It's important for SMBs to know that only the official sponsors of the World Cup can reference the games in their tweets, per FIFA's rules. But, with a little creativity, SMBs can use Twitter Ads to take advantage of the huge marketing opportunity the World Cup presents on Twitter."
Who are these World Cup fans that overlap with your audience? "Connect with your existing customers by uploading your email list and following them," Laraway says. "If you're an e-commerce business whose product is relevant to broader range of users, you can use geo-targeting to reach customers at the global or country level. On the flip side, if you're a brick-and-mortar that services your local area, you can use geo-targeting to reach customers at the state, DMA, and even down to the ZIP code level."
"Think about what your audience is talking about, what they're interested in, and what they'll be watching on TV, and then use a combination of targeting tools to identify these users and connect with them at precisely the right moment with a Promoted Tweet or Promoted Account," says Laraway.
He suggests several ways to maximize the visibility of Twitter ad campaigns, such as using keyword targeting to reach users in an area who are tweeting or engaging with tweets that contain World Cup keywords, like the Spirit of 77 is doing.
"For example, if you're a local bar looking to drive users to watch games at your venue, you could target users tweeting/engaging with keywords like 'watch World Cup,' 'World Cup bar,' or 'World Cup drink specials.' A party store could target keywords such as 'World Cup party supplies' or 'buy caxirola' (this year's official World Cup noisemaker!)."
Laraway advises businesses to also be mindful of the relevant World Cup hashtags used to maximize visibility, such as #WorldCup, #Brazil2014, #USMNT, #OneNationOneTeam, #1N1T, #GoUSA, #USAvGHA, #USAvPOR, and #USAvGER.
Username targeting can also help businesses reach engaged World Cup fans. Laraway gives the following resources for Twitter lists:
Finally, businesses can leverage Twitter's TV conversation targeting to "easily promote tweets to users who engage with shows related to the World Cup," says Laraway. "In the ads UI, simply search for terms such as World Cup or FIFA to identify and target shows related to the games. Some examples: 2014 World Cup Preview, 2014 World Cup Countdown, and 2014 FIFA World Cup Pre-match."
"If you want to drive engagement, keep your tweets fun and dynamic," says Laraway. "And, remember that tweets with photos receive on average a 35 percent increase in RTs, and tweets with videos see a 28 percent boost."
And don't forget about Twitter Vine, he adds. "If you're a local restaurant, a Vine showcasing your bartender making a special World Cup cocktail can go a long way, and entice customers to drop in for a visit."
If the goal of your World Cup campaign is focused on direct response, Laraway has a few tips there as well.
"Keep your call to action the main focus of your message. Avoid using hashtags and rich media, which can distract users from taking your desired action. You can also leverage tools like the Lead Generation Card, which allows users to submit leads directly within a tweet. Or, the Website Card can help you drive traffic to any page of your site, like a World Cup blog post or product page."
Your World Cup Twitter campaign should be measurable so you know how it performs against your goals. "When it comes to running any Twitter Ads campaign, our advice is to continually test and iterate," says Laraway.
"Your Twitter Ads dashboard provides tweet-level metrics; use these to determine what content resonates most with users. Additionally, you can implement conversion tracking to see if your campaigns are effectively driving sales, leads, or another action you define for your business."

On Wednesday December 2, students and faculty gathered together to celebrate the teaching career of Cormac Ferguson, who will be leaving in January to join his family in Thailand.
Yo San's Sally Goluboff, L.Ac and Matthew Brand, L.Ac had the opportunity to treat over 23 people in 3 hours, about half of whom had never received acupuncture. Despite some apprehension on the part of a few participants, almost all of those who tried it left with significant relief from their symptoms.
According to Chinese medicine, seasonal adaptation is a significant component of cultivating health and nourishing life. The same forces that govern all life cycles on the planet also direct our internal biorhythms. Harmonizing our physiology with the ecological ebbs and flows throughout the year promotes a long, healthy life.
Zia Atayan, L.Ac. is a doctoral student at Yo San University, specializing in Longevity and Healthy Aging. He completed his undergraduate work at UC Berkeley where he received his B.A. in Public Health. In his early career, he traveled to numerous locations in Latin American to practice Oriental Medicine.
25 Years of keeping a promise to heal and educate future healers can never be explained with only words.
On the subject of the clinic, President Green indicated that considerable effort is going into building clinic volume in response to the larger-than-expected group of interns.
In reality students are serious about their education, understand the implications of borrowing and want to manage their debt responsibly. I say this because Yo San students attend the Loan Repayment Workshops offered each trimester in large numbers and fully engage the content.
At a young age, Bita and her family moved from Iran in 1979 and planted their roots in Los Angeles, California. Bita's passion for learning and teaching began to sprout, and she continued her education at UCLA, where she graduated with a B.A. in Sociology and Education.
My own experience with acupuncture in 1991 was life changing. I changed from a person who wrote checks while driving and thought that was the best way to get things done, to a person who was calm and focused. I said to myself: "I have to learn how to do this medicine so I can help other people!"
Even with all of the ups and downs that come with owning your own business, I wouldn't have it any other way! My goal is to ultimately open my own practice here in Los Angeles and execute my dream of helping others heal with a strong integrative approach of Eastern and Western medicine, as I am a firm believer in the "it takes a village" mentality – not only in raising children, but in healing our bodies too!

With a six-page bill, Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) would upend the entire federal procurement world.
McCaskill wants to dump the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes system — which she in the past has called "complex and clumsy" and "nuts" — and have the Small Business Administration create an entirely new way to categorize the size of a company and delineate a contract based on what's being bought.
Under McCaskill's Fairness for Small Businesses in Federal Contracting Act (S. 1590), the new replacement system could have no more than 20 industries classified in it. It would be based on the most recent market conditions according to the U.S. Economic Census.

Senators, SBA dispute accuracy of small-business credit
It would also require the SBA to issue new rules within months to close a loophole in law that allows some non-manufacturers to qualify as manufacturers. That loophole enables those companies to win small-business contracts when they should not be eligible, McCaskill said.
"This is really about the government getting its act together and stopping what I would call a huge scam that's going on," said the chairwoman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee's Contracting Oversight Subcommittee.
An investigation by her subcommittee pointed to a flawed system used to determine eligibility for contracts based on a system using more than 1,200 NAICS codes never intended to be used in federal contracting, as well as the ability of businesses to self-select their categories. In a hearing on small-business contracting July 26, the senator used as an example a company that was identified as a manufacturer when it was only selling print toner to the government.
"All this does is skew the numbers in a way that in long run harms small businesses," she said at the hearing.
McCaskill said the code has to be simplified for people, particularly small-business owners who have to navigate the system if they want to be federal contractors.
"I think everyone is so used to using it in your world that you don't realize how nuts it is," McCaskill told a panel of procurement officials at the hearing.
The bill was sent to the Senate Small Business and Entrepreneurship Committee for consideration.

It's about time! Does anyone wonder how a company like MicroTech can be BOTH on the FCW Federal 100 list and atop Washinton Technology's Fast 50 list for small businesses AT THE SAME TIME! A $250M small business that's not an Alaskan Native (don't get me started there), but is still in the SBA 8(a) program getting set asides because their NAICS code is a manufacturing one. Exhibit A boys and girls. Pass this low and end this insanity!
In the real world small business have to compete with the big guys. Let's get the government out of the subsidizing business, eliminate the SBA, and setasides. It time to stop socially managing the market and give the tax payer a break!
It's about time! As a contracting officer, I've submitted two protests to SBA challenging a supposed SDVOSB's status (in the past year) and both times they were found NOT to be what they self-certified themselves to be. In one case the company was instructed by SBA to change their CCR registration. I checked the other day and low and behold they are still listed as a SDVOSB. What a farse. In the other case out of 14 bidders, only 4 were registered in the vetbiz system. Just let the marketplace do it's job. SBA says they don't have the staff to do things right so why impose things on the procurement community that is basically fraud, waste, and abuse. If SBA, VA, CCR, ORCA, EPLS, and any other verification system can't be trusted, why should we even have them. Self-certification under any NAICS code is so easy to do, you can enter any code you want just to make a vendor list, no accountability whatsoever. This proposal has my vote.
Is this the proper way to fix things? What about the extensive studies and thorough examination of the entire process with all the expected pros and cons before attempting to fix the process?

"Quaddie Backstory"
I love the Vorkosigan universe and this is a great story. It stands completely on it's own and fills in a piece of history of the greater universe. The characters are interesting as is the story itself. The story does bring up some moral questions about slavery and personhood. Grover Gardner does a great job narrating as always. I always lean towards listening to a book if he's the narrator.
"Much fun!"
This book was a lot of fun and the narrator is absolutely fabulous. Her very distinctive voices for the many different characters is a joy to hear. The story was pretty good, though I kept listening wondering when the mystery was going to begin. It actually doesn't start until about halfway through the book. I really enjoyed the characters and the look at an interesting period of history. I'm going to listen to the next books in the series.

It typically happens less than 5 minutes into every call for my wife. But today she had 3 20 to 30 minute calls with no issues.
I'm on my second GNexus and have had this problem on both of them (the first one had a lot more problems than just this). They did NOT change my SIM card when they changed the phone. I, too, am very interested to know if a new SIM card fixes it. For me, it seems to happen between 2-5 minutes into a call. On just about every call, whether inbound or outbound. Did they replace the SIM card when they replaced the phone? If you got a new SIM card, maybe (hopefully!) that is what fixed the problem.
I've had this problem on all of my phones(3 G Nexus so far). the last time I was on my jawbone bluetooth headset. I switched to the handset and speaker phone and back to bluetooth again, but the directv rep could still not hear me. Luckily they hung up and called me back.
I have been having the same problem. I was on the phone for 2.5 minutes and then my secretary could no longer hear me but I could still hear her.
Yep, this happens somewhat frequently. Just like everyone else has mentioned, I hear the other party fine. The other side has said they hear a clicking noise when this happens. Yes. If I enable 4G, inevitably my phone will lose all connectivity and not get it back unless I intervene. If I enter airplane mode while in this condition, it gets stuck and only a power cycle clears it.
If anyone subscribed to this thread has gotten a new SIMM card in an attempt to correct this mic issue, PLEASE report back on whether it helped. I just made my first 20 minute call on phone #2 and unfortunately it is behaving the same way as the first. I love this phone, but if there is no known cure for the mic issue on phone calls, I may have to suck it up and get the Rezound instead.
I really doubt a new sim is going to help. I'm off for the holidays, but the last major conf call I was on was 18 hours, my bionic cut the calls off at about 2 hours.... maybe it was 3... but it was every time.
Installed my new SIM yesterday. It hasnt helped my signal at all, but after several phone calls today, I havent had the silent mic issue...yet. Too soon to say it's fixed. One thing to note is the pattern on the SIM card contacts was different thannthat on the old one, sobit was defintely from a different supply of SIM cards. Sorry for the typos...no autocorrect in browser is my second biggest complaint.
for what its worth I opened this issue on the loss of voice with google Issue 23733 - android - phone call outbound audio drops - Android - An Open Handset Alliance Project - Google Project Hosting
Take this for what its worth. I was in the VW Cooperate store yesterday about this issue and I was told that it was a known issue and has been identified as a software issue that will be corrected in a future update. He also told me that several people have been complaining about this issue. reimerj
I took my phone back to VZW yesterday prepared to swap a great phone with one major issue for a Rezound. I mentioned the possible SIM connection and the rep suggested trying a new SIM before swapping (I am already on my second Nexus). Obviously, I made a 30 minute call as soon as I got home to test and (amazingly) it was the first time my voice did NOT drop. I'll try to make another long call today, but I'm hopeful that the SIM card may have been (at least part of) the problem. I will continue to keep an eye on this thread as well as the Google issue as it seems odd that only a small percentage of us seem to be affected.
I am currently on my second phone and have also replaced my sim card and still having this issue on every call over 5 minutes. I also have to restart my phone in order to make any call where the person on the other end can hear me again. Does anyone know what else may be causing this as Verizon seems to have no clue.
I got a new SIM card on 12/31. I've made several 5-minute-long and longer calls since with no trouble. In fact, I was confident enough that I just used my Nexus for a 53 minute conference call for work. I haven't had the mic drop out a single time since changing SIM cards. Before the change, it happened on nearly every call I made/received. As I said before, I swapped my phone last week, but they "let" me keep the same SIM card. To make sure I didn't have any hassle at the store, I called Tech Support (*611) and told them about the issue, told them that I had read that it might be SIM card related, told them that I'd like to try a new SIM card, and told them that I was about to drive to my local store and would like to get that new SIM card. Being 1st tier Support, the woman said, "Yes, that sounds like what we should do. I'll note the account that we're going to try that". I went to the store and they handed me a new SIM card to install. Like I said, this hasn't happened since.
Well crap. I'm having this issue as well. I got my phone for Xmas, but really didn't have the issue till yesterday (1/2). Maybe I just haven't made any extended calls with it till yesterday... Anyways, I was chatting and my friend said he could barely hear me. At the same time, the audio feedback in the earpiece went out and it seemed like the call had been dropped. I pulled the phone back, tried muting and unmuting, and then returned to a normal conversation. Today, I was just chatting with my dad and the voice went completely out. I had to call him back. It sucks cuz this is apparently happening to quite a few people. My phone was ordered online. Does that mean I have to deal with it online, or can I take it into a store? I'm hoping that the SIM card swap makes a difference, but it sounds like people have had mixed results. Please keep this thread updated. Thanks
+1 more person having this issue - either the other person can't hear me at all or all they hear is clicking noises a few minutes into the call. Hopefully the sim card thing works out? A question for those who have gone back to the verizon store - my phone is unlocked but not rooted. Do I need to to relock before trying to get any in-store support, or do they just hand you a sim card?
I registered with several forums solely to post about this issue, as it doesn't seem to be getting too much attention. My sound cut out in the middle of a call and never fully came back. Neither I nor the person on the other end could hear each other. I did soft and hard resets and got a new SIM card as recommended here - no improvement. Occasionally a bit of sound will pop back in and then immediately disappear. I'm currently waiting for Costco to get the phone back in stock so I can return it for a replacement. The guy at Costco said a lot of Samsung builds have a similar issue, either a problem with the headphone jack or a loose connection somewhere in the phone. So it may be a hardware problem...or at least that's my understanding. Ringtones, notifications, and alarms still work for me. Music, UI sounds, game sounds, dial tone sounds, and most importantly, calls can not be heard via the external speaker. Sounds can be heard with a headset. The only way to hear a call and to have the other person hear me is to use a bluetooth headset or to put it in speakerphone mode. I really don't want to exchange this for a pre-ICS phone, but I'm *this close* to exchanging it for a RAZR. What good is a smartphone if I can't use the actual phone function without a headset?
Not sure if it matters, but the two times I took the phone back to the store, I made sure to unroot and relock. Prior to that, I made a nandroid backup so that I could just reflash my setup once I brought a Nexus (not necessarily the same one) back home again.
Here's a rundown of the feedback in this thread so far: HTML: Member Action Results ChiTownJim Getting a new SIM Card ? nerdstaz Getting a new SIM Card ? OfTheDamned Replaced SIM & Phone Fixed! AnotherHiggins Replaced SIM Card Fixed! esmith818 Replaced SIM Card Fixed? Mr. Orange 645 Replaced SIM Card Fixed? ncwxnut Replaced SIM Card Not fixed Mr. Link Holding it wrong Steve Jobs would have loved you ;) jrbmed08 Reporting different issue - (Man, it's not easy to post a table on this site without resorting to a picture. Shit, why didn't I just post a picture??) Well let's apply a bit of logic to the problem: To reiterate my personal experience - my mic cut out a couple of minutes into nearly every call I made or received for 2 weeks on 2 different handsets. I used the same SIM card in both of those handsets. After putting a new SIM card into my second handset (that had been failing on every call), the problem immediately disappeared. Three other people here seem to have also successfully fixed the problem by swapping SIM cards. So it's a reasonable assumption that the original SIM cards in our devices were at fault. With that being our only assumption, we are led to the conclusion that there are "bad" SIM cards out there. Maybe a bad batch was released or something. The fact that swapping the SIM card didn't fix the problem for one single person doesn't disprove that bad SIM cards are to blame. In fact it is to be expected if there are bad SIM cards out there. No, not really that mixed. See above Please read my second reply where I discuss what I did that resulted in them just handing me a new SIM card that I installed myself. Of course your results may vary. That is not the same issue the rest of us are talking about. What is being discussed here is specifically that the the other person can't hear us, but we can still hear them. I never had a problem where I couldn't hear the other person. When did you buy your phone? I bought mine on release day from HH Gregg. I was told by both HH Gregg and Verizon employees that 3rd party sellers had to handle replacements and everything for the first 2 weeks, but after than you can just go into a Verizon store.
Well, I thought I'd post in this thread because the issues at least seem to overlap, and this thread is getting much more traffic than the ones I'm posting on in other forums. I was hoping the SIM card fix might be helpful for me, and if anyone else has my issue, maybe they'll see this and be able to help me. I bought my phone on release day at Costco. I talked to both Costco and Verizon about replacements but am stuck with my current phone because: 1) No Costco within a reasonable distance of where I live has the phone. 2) I'm past the 14-day return policy at Costco, so I can't just return it and reverse my contract. 3) Verizon won't take my phone back for a warranty exchange before 1/9 because of their extended holiday return period. Apparently all exchanges within this period are treated as store exchanges rather than warranty exchanges, and since I bought from a 3rd party, I have to exchange it through them. Verizon said I'd get a refurbished phone if I exchanged it through them, and I'd get a new one if I used Costco. I would rather have a new one. But I think the verdict is that I need a replacement, period. If anyone has any other suggestions for me to try, I'm all ears.
jrbmed08: That really sucks. I'd give another SIM card a shot then. IF there really are bad SIM cards out there, it would be possible to get 2 bad ones in a row. And it's possible that even if you exchanged through Verizon that they wouldn't have any refurb'ed GNex's ready to go, so they'd have to give you a new one. But I wouldn't want to risk it, either. (Then again, based on my experience with all six of my DIncs, it seems like Verizon's "refurb" dept doesn't even turn on the devices and only slaps new screens on if they're scratched - so how long could it take to "refurb" a phone?)
Troubleshooting steps I have performed: 1) Made sure it was not user error with me blocking mic with fingers in how I hold the phone or hitting the mute button. 2) Toggle mute on and off - caller cannot hear me in either mute state when this issue happens. 3) Swapped handset out and used same SIM card per VZW tech's directions. Did a nandroid backup and restore on the new handset and had same issue. 4) Swapped SIM card out, again per VZW tech's direction. Made a 30 minute call and then the issue happened again. 5) Wiped both standard cache and Dalvik cache on device. None of these steps have fixed the issue. I really love this phone, but I believe I should be able to use my phone to make phone calls. List of Websites showing customers of Verizon using a Google Galaxy Nexus having this problem:
