I experience a lot of fluctuation in the signal strength of the antenna of the Galaxy S. Without touching the signal sometimes drops from from 3 to 1 or even from 4 to 0...
Is this a know issue with this phone? My phone has stock firmware with one click lagfix (and root).

I know its kind of against how cellular is designed to work but I am in a situation where a sprint signal is only barely(0 bars) available and it decides to roam (with the triangle) to a uscellular signal. The problem is that its constantly trying to stay on the sprint signal, realizing that the connection isn't good enough and goes back to the uscellular signal and is just killing performance and battery. Is there any prl update or fix I can make with the evo to just stay on the uscc signal and forget about the crappy sprint signal at this location instead of hopping between the two? Ideally I'd like something automatic but I would even settle for a toggle. The uscellular signal is a repeater that was installed at my workplace. For example, in battery status my evo; the cell standby is at 39%
I am having the EXACT same issue in my office. The repeater signal in my office (850 MHz so it only repeats Verizon / AT&T / T-Mobile) is -70 dBm (full bars on my phone). The Sprint signal from outside through the foot thick cement walls is -102 or worse dBm (aka 1-0 bars). Why the hell will the phone not consistently stay on the higher power signal??
The techknowfile trick is NOT the solution to this problem. This seems like a problem with the phone itself - the whole point of a multi-band phone with free roaming is it should always pick the best signal (in my opinion).
I tried the techknowfile trick as well with no luck. Maybe a different prl? I used the 40060.prl file suggested.
Okay so i've got an aria rooted and flashed with the Liberated 2.2 rom. I've been using it for the past 3 months and I've noticed that I will go from full service while a phone call is comming in and complete signal loss when I answer it. I have set the phone on a table and watched the network signal strength go from -113 dBm and 0asu to -81 dBm and 16asu and vise versa. I have also noticed that when I lose signal my "H" for the data goes with it and service comes back a few seconds later very strong but showing "G". From there it will go to "E" then back to "H".
Could anyone explain this or have a better reason as to why this is happening? Maybe its just based on the connection where I live but I've used the app Antennas and the tower is about 1/3 mile away.
Any info or help would be awesome
Thanks
i'm not sure why this would happen outside of a poor bit of service where you're living.
i used the various roms for the aria and never had any sort of service loss issue.
as far as the icons switching around, e = edge network (2g), h = hspa (3g). when your phone drops its connection, it tries to reconnect as fast as possible, usually with edge, then after its strong it looks for the 3g connection.
I have Saunalahti service provider which works in Elisa's network and the signal is very poor and I think this problem appeared after updating to .35 kernel. Now I have AuroraICS, but the same problem was with miui.
The AP is very close, I can actually see the mast and I used to have very good signal. Also weird is that signal can sometimes be like -98 dbm 8 asu, and suddenly at the same spot it changes to -107dbm and 3 asu or 0 asu. So what could I do? Is there any boost for signal or changing the air interface? Just feels like it's automatically changing something and that's why signal gets suddenly weak?
Problems
No Network
Signal Dropping Issue
Low Signal
Too Much fluctuation in signal strength.
Which phone do you have? Which ROM?
Hi, I've noticed that my G6 in low signal area tries to switch to 3G or worse but with almost zero signal (no bars, only the icon) whether there is a "medium" 4g signal (1-2 bars), anyone noticed same problem? The easy fix is to force LTE only but it blocks completely the calls
