IPhone :: Verizon Signal Quality And 3G Indication?
May 10, 2012
iPhone 4S I've noticed when traveling, sometimes I'll have several signal quality bars showing but the 3G indication has changed to a circle. I'm assuming that means I am out of range of a Verizon Data circuit but I'm roaming as far as calls are concerned. Are the two indications unrelated? i.e. Are the bars indicating call signal quality and the 3G only tells me I have a data signal or not?If so, is there a way to determine the strength of the 3G data connection? I'm currently in a location where the iPhone has 3 to 4 bars and 3G and am using the personal hotspot to connect to a laptop. I never lose the Wi-Fi connection between the laptop and iPhone but the internet connection keeps dropping out. If I cycle the hotspot switch, the internet connection returns. So, I'm wondering if the call signal is strong but the data signal is marginal or is it and issue with the phone?

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1, Verizon

On occasion I get a 123 symbol in the upper right corner over my signal strength indication symbol. Does anybody know what this is for? I can not locate it in any of the PDF manuals.

Does anyone have poor signal quality on their phone? I frequently have 1 or two bars, and then the next second I have 5 bars and then down to nothing... all when standing still! Is this just a HTC feature, as I see other HTC phones have the same issue.
The funny thing is that any signal monitoring App that I've installed tells me I have 25% signal, when the phone won't connect to the network!

I have owned the nokia 6600 slide for 3 months now and I have to say it is the worst mobile phone I have owned. I have never had a mobile phone that has such poor signal quality,and it drops calls due to this.Just a question to nokia I quote:When designing this phone and you located the antenna at the bottom of the phone where 90% of the time when you pick it up it gets covered, did you not think it would have an affect on the ability of the phone to pick a signal up.When I turn the phone upside down I get a brilliant signal and the 3g network is a lot stronger. I can't cope with this anymore and using a phone I had 3 years ago only because it works!Come on nokia help us out as am tied into a 18 months contract with a phone that is useless even though all the other features are good. I believe there should be a recall on this phone as I have compared signal strengths with other nokias and makes and they are far better.

Ok so I bought an env2 off a guy on craigslist. I dropped my old one in a puddle but I really loved my env 2 so I bought a used one from someone on craigslist. When I went to activate it I discovered it was on revol's network, I dont live in the city hence I can get coverage on revol. Still says verizon all over it when you turn it on and off. I am not very savvy with cell phones but I am with a computer. I took it to the verizon store and they tried to put new firmware on it but it didnt work. I have a tough time beleiving that it can go from verizons network to revols but not back, if anyone has a way that I can flash the phone back to verizon.

This is for my father-in-law's phone. He has just basic service, so no text or data plan. Bitpim doesn't appear to support it and I cannot find a USB driver for it. The phone does not currently have Kies installed (I don't even know if it is supported on this phone). And he can't install new applications because he has no data plan. Is he pretty much out of luck or is there some alternate way of doing this that I haven't discovered yet?

I live in a poor reception area on the Rogers network. I've noticed that when I go into the basement the phone drops a signal pretty quickly. I am okay with this and is expected. My issue is when I get back on to the main floor, the phone does not pick up a signal again for a long time. Sometimes even toggling airplane mode doesn't work. My wife's iPhone does the same thing.
Anybody else having this problem?

Been using my E71 for sometime now and the GPS has always worked fine with the voice indications. All of sudden, the voice is no longer there? I've updated the phone's software to the latest version and also Nokia Maps but no luck.

On my home screen I have a BBM icon with the number 2 beside it indicating that I have two new BBM messages. When I go in to the BBM application, there is Nothing new; no invites, messages, or group chats. I recently deleted someone and put them on the ignore list so is this them trying to communicate with me? I took them off the ignore list but the icon still remains new on my home screen. It's really starting to bother me and I can't get rid of it. I've restarted my phone by turning it off as well as a battery pull.

I have a problem with N97 mini device. The device does not quit the charging of the battery when it's fullycharged. You can leave it charging for 24 hours and still the battery bars are moving and the LED near usb port lights. It doesn't matter if I charge with the AC-10E charger or via USB, the same problem happens. The battery seems to be charging cause when I unplug the charger the battery bars are full and I can use the phone for a day or little bit more. The main thing is that, there is no "beep" and no information that "your battery is fully charged". I have the newest software for mini 11.0.045. and hardreset does not help.What can it be? is this a software bug? can this damage the battery?

I'm having a problem with voicemail notification, specifically, there isn't any. I had a few people complaining about me not returning their calls, and when I called my VM, I had 5 messages, but the phone never showed any indication of new messages.

I purchased this z2 just this december and its acting weird for a month now.. It took me awhile figuring out why the unit just shuts down even if the battery percentage was considerably high. The true percentage level only shows up after i press the little thingy on the side for reset..

I've had my e72 since February, but I only just finally got around to downloading ovi suite on my PC. installation was fine, then it came to the part where it says to connect the phone, so I did that, but nothing happened. the thing on the PC said that I should select 'ovi suite' or 'PC suite' when it appears on the phone, but the home screen was blank. i've tried connecting it many times and still nothing. the phone lights up when i connect it to the computer, but it doesn't prompt me for the connection mode. i've checked the settings (currently on usb conn. mode: PC suite / ask on conn.: yes) but it's not asking me on connection, nor is there any indication on the ovi suite program that it is connected.

What do these Icons represent or mean, and the meaning when they change Colors from White to Blue (Status Icons). There was a GB 2.3.4 User Manual Posted on Moto's site, Unfortunately no information was included about these Items. What does it mean when all three are blue, Including the H+ icon having arrows beneath it at the same time? Is it also Possible to have the Intro Video Posted or embedded to this thread as well please.

I've had this twice now where I couldn't get a GPS signal. This never happened on my Droid 1, but has happened twice in less than 30 days (two different phones - since I replaced the first one when this happened). This has been in 2 completely different locations.

I was wondering if anyone knows what algorithm is used for the signal bars on the Photon 4G. I have found that there seems to be no correlation between the signal strength (in dBm / asu) in Settings -> About phone -> Status and the signal bars that are shown. Often the signal bars will shoot from 1 to 5 or 6 even with really low signal ( ~97 to > 100 dBm) that doesn't fluctuate.

a few days ago I bought my SE X10 mini pro.I now have a problem with my battery. A few hours ago, my battery level was around 35%
A few hours later, it remained at 35% indication.Since this couldn't be correct, i restarted the phone. Now, my battery indication was 100%. False again.I turned the phone off. It wouldn't restart.I tried the 'flash device method' by holding back button and putting in computer USB. No help.I tried SEUS. After that, phone switched back on, with false battery indication back to 100%, which is impossible.I noticed that during all this 'fun stuff', my battery refuses to charge. The LED indicator remains green without flashing, the settings screen doesnt say 'charging'. I know that the phone won't charge below 95% battery.So, the phone thinks the battery is 100%, therefore won't charge, and I'm pretty screwed, especially since I fear that once my battery drops dead, the phone won't be able to charge ever since it will think its 100% full...

Help! I bought a BlackBerry Charging Pod for my 9700, the packaging that came with it says it is for a Tour 9630.
I plugged it in and the power light on the pod lit up but there is no indication on the 9700 that says it is charging when placed in pod and I set the clock to display when charging and that doesn't work when placed in the pod!I bought it from a place called OEM in Brooklyn.

I have bought a new iPhone 3GS.. but I got very very disappointed with the sound quality of headphones. I already have an iPod shuffle 1GB, and it sounds like awesome... In the comparison of my iPod, the iPhone sounds only abt 30-35%... Can anybody tell me the solution of this problem or I have to sacrifise..?Help me guys please bcz I believed that apple products like iPods (all models) and iPhones (all models) have the equal sound quality... I collected the money for iPhone for more than two years and music is my passion...

My iPhone 4s has suddenly changed to a really poor picture quality, today i compared it with my friend's iPhone 4s and the difference was astonishing. My iPhone takes quite blurry pictures. I was just wondering if there were any ways of cleaning it or anything that i could do to get the picture quality back to what it used to be.. I reckon it would be a hardware related issue, seeing as i have just updated to the latest software and i have tried resetting the phone but i am still having these issues.

In the last few minutes, I've been looking at the iPhone 4 screen; tilting in any direction just to see one pixel. I can't.
I place it on the computer desk and notice how much nicer it looks from a distance. I put it a few inches in front of my nose - I still see the quality of it.
Superb job, Apple.
