Not sure I understand the USB issue. Are you saying it doesn't have a
USB port or is it not functioning? There are settings for that both in
the phone and in your computer. I've had difficulty with some of my
phones not wanting to connect to some computers. Generally speaking, I
don't use USB connectivity unless I'm transferring massive files or
doing backups.

Don't blame just Google. Amazon is just as guilty.
Arizona is an odd duck when it comes to the Internet. While it is
along the major southern fiber route, it always gets the scrubs as it
is effectively subtended off of LA and Dallas. Some providers have
attempted additional connectivity to SJ and Denver, but for the most
part, a single fiber cut can take out 2 of 4 legs. Phoenix is actually
about the worst connected major city in the country. Seattle and
Boston are worse, but that's another story.
