Phone won't reconnect to network

This happens to a few people on occasion. Where I am, if I turn on my phone and I am in an area of little/no reception it can take quite a while before I get service ( if at all ). A re-boot in a higher reception area solves the problem instantly for me.

Who's your provider and what firmware are you running ?

 

Well there you go. Spotty reception areas will certainly cause ( or help to cause ) the issues you have had. More than one Bell user has had that problem. Mine is not so bad. I'd say about once a month I have a random drop-off even in a high reception area. I wonder how long it will be before you start upgrading the firmware ...

 

Maybe I have been just lucky, but I have had next to no reception problems since upgrading. Don't worry about breaking your phone. The original firmware is around here and so is some really good instructions for firmware upgrades. Intimidating at first, but once you do it, its really easier than it looks.
