Interesting to see others are having the same problem. Don't know if that's good or bad.
zemerick: I've been watching my signal strength everywhere I've gone since Thursday, using the ##DEBUG field test. The dbm's have been as low as 60s downtown but most of the time are in the 80s and 90s. Rx Ec/Io is normally 6 - 10 db. Signal seems to be pretty consistent no matter where I am in about a 30-40 mile radius around Rochester, NY.
migeeman: Can you explain further what garbled sounds like? For me, I have a mix of things including "scratchy" sounds, points where the sound cuts out completely for less than a second, or the words the person is saying will get cut off early.
SGRacer: At first I felt maybe this was the case, but I've made sure to test almost every carrier and landline. It does it consistently across Verizon, ATT, Sprint, and landlines both locally and across state.
eleazar: Does your call quality sound what I've described what mine sounds like?
