My apartment is at the intersection where Mission St. and Jackson meet. I have complete reception in and around this area and have yet to have any dropped calls in the Hayward area. Have been with T-Mobile for 2 years.

The connection here for voice / data is five bars pretty much everywhere.

Usually no problems either inside my house or out of the house in the greater Hayward (North East) neighborhoods and down Grove into Castro Valley on my regular walks. My service is through Working Assets, which contracts with Sprint for service.

We're halfway up the hill on Pine Wood. Service inside the house is almost zero, but a few feet away on the back deck, the service becomes normal. Whenever someone comes to our area (friends, workmen, etc.), they have signal problems. I switched to Verizon from AT&T, and it's the best I've experienced.

i get 3 bars most of the times in this area sometimes I get all 5bars but its mostly 3 and somedays its 4 bars

I almost always can make calls, but I miss quite a few. I also only get about 1 or 2 bars in my house, yet my parents who have AT&T get great service all over the house. My girlfriend with Verizon gets great service and 5 bars. There are also some certain spots in Five Canyons and on Fairview, where if I am on the phone I am guaranteed to lose service. I don't think I ever get 5 bars unless I am on the freeway with nextel.

bad reception is this city its a miracle wen it get all 5 but other wise it get low reception in this city I think they need to put another service tower to improve the reception in this city the only place were I get all my bars is in the mall and other places but other than that bad reception in this city and I lived here too!

reception is mostly 3 bars all the time here but inside my house is mostly 1 - 3 bars sometimes I get no reception I have to go outside to get more bars and have better reception I think the reception should be improve around this area

very poor reception! I had a Nokia that was never a problem here and now this one can not get 2 bars most of the time..

When at home, my cell reception is very spotty. 90% of incoming calls go straight to voicemail.
