The Google phone with no network
plus.google.com
I am a developer who uses Android as my primary connection to the Internet when roaming... which is often. Unfortunately I can't keep a network connection with this phone and I am not the only one.
It seems that Android ICS (v.4) cannot maintain a connection when switching between types of network. Whether that be Wifi back to 3G or even HSPA+ to 3G to Edge and vise versa.
Can we get a little HackerNews bump on this issue so that Google will take a look? I've posted to Google's help forums and even aggregated a few of the related issue threads though they seem to be very slow to respond.
Just in case you're wondering, yes I have talked to my carrier and they gave me the usual dumb trial and error responses, none of which work. They say they get 12-15 calls a day from Toronto on this issue (not sure if that is one rep or the entire office). They were very happy to get some debugging info from me.
Know someone at Google? Tap them on the shoulder if you don't mind doing so. I am at the point where I'm ready to replace my two-month-old phone because of this obvious defect.
Many thanks.
