I purposely bought this phone in August in hope that even the most BASIC of issues would be fixed by then. But nope, the second I walk out of my house, the signal is crap. Especially if it's indoors. I walk into Walmart and boom: 1x or X, no bars that fluctuates to 5 and then none, no 4G.

The only time I get DECENT, CONSISTENT service is when I'm at my home, but doesn't that kill the WHOLE point in this device being mobile? :(

Has anyone found a solution to this nuisance and excuse of a connection? I know it's on the Sprint network but come on, it can't be THIS horrible.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. :eek:

I live in the capitol of California by the way and on the map the whole northern part of California is covered with 4G and 3G, let alone basic cellphone signal...

Thanks for the advice, looks like Leslie Ann has some useful tips in fixing or at least bettering the signal issue. Didn't think I would need to root such a good phone by HTC but this leaves me no choice. I'll give it a try.

Appreciate it. :D

Another post about this, maybe a mod should make a post, sticky it so all of these post can go there and people have easier access and no clutter in the forums. Just a suggestion. ;)

On-topic, yes Leslie Ann's thread in the All things root section should be a great help to you.:D It was for me I have not had one problem with the phone now. Works just as it should.
