Very bad signal

Try standing in one spot, then bring your left foot slowly up to your right knee. Now extend your left arm all the way above your head while bending at the wrist and point your fingers straight out. Check your phone while holding this position for the next 5 minutes to see if you notice better signal.

If this doesn't work then you're a shoe-in to audition for Karate Kid Part IV. :p




Only a Carrier specific firmware update can help increase signals. I remember when the HTC Droid Incredible (Carrier: Verizon) first came out my signal was discouraging. I almost returned the phone. Within a short time Verizon performed an update and it pretty much doubled the signal strength.

My current Note 3 was never that great compared to other people's phones.
