ATT rates this area as full 3G. It is not 3G. I experience often NO Services, 1 bar, many dropped calls, intermittent connection. ATT customer service are complete liars. As a matter of fact service from Ruby Rd up towards the hills is about the same. Evergreen HS is lousy as well. Verizon in this area has a better signal. I will terminate my ATT contact and likely move to Verizon since ATT is not interested in service and only making excuses for the service. I think they should rate this area from 3G to NO service then everyone would not be mislead they can't use their service reliability in this area.

Reception is horrible. Best we get is one bar. Most of the time none. I would drop my land service if we had reception.

It's all good until walk thru the front door. Then my phone becomes a wifi paper weight. I get better coverage at my wife's grandparents in Merlin, OR! Can you say BFE, lol!

Used to be 2 to 3 bars, for the past year now, I'm getting 1 to 0 3G and keep moving to Edge signal. Supposed to get better when technology mature, but AT&T is degrading...

I had T-Mobile for almost 2 year. Excellent reception and rarely dropped calls. I also had AT&T before, which gave not so good reception and dropped call very often.

I was getting 4 bars for reception on my new iphone 4, but I was getting 'Call Failed' on almost every call I made. If I turned Airplane mode ON, then OFF again (this causes the search for the network), then I could call once or twice. I had to do this each time I made a phone call. After ruling out hardware (swapped phones at Apple), I tried turning the 3G network mode to OFF in this area. Now I can call everytime!

For the last two weeks, most calls immediately fails with "call fails: network busy" I don't think it is a signal quality issue, looks like their network is too congested.

AT& T is the worst carrier among all in this area. Many people have complained but AT&T does not listen and basking in the glory of i_phone growth it has been enjoying. I am guessing, it would be coming soon to end with popularity of droid phones and Verizon network.

Evergreen / Quimby and Murillo, San Jose, CA 95148 Fri Jun 25, 2010

For years I'd get between one and two bars. But recently its between 0 and 1 bar. I live in a two story home in the evergreen foothills. Nothing obstructs my view of the valley. Yet in an upstairs room, facing the valley, I get little or no signal. A while back I heard they might put a tower at or near Evergreen High School. C'mon Verizon, lets get moving with that tower. And for the record, AT&T's coverege here is worse.

Always 5 bars and 3G reception in building. Never experienced a drop call once. Must be near a tower or something.

My reception is spotty at best. Also, I get dropped calls here and there. AT&T needs improve their coverage as my contract is up soon and I'm looking to change.

4-5 months ago reception in this area was decent. For what ever reason it's not good anymore. Can't talk on the cell phone and I have a 3 phone family plan and all 3 phones are useless in my house.

Initially the cell signal strength was good (i.e. 3 of 5 "bars" on my signal strength display, few dropped calls and no restriction on where I could be in my hlme) but for the last 4-5 months the signal strength has deteriorated significantly. Now 95% of my cell calls are terminated within 60 seconds and I have a single bar on my display I am not sure if this deridation in service is the result of cell issues like antenna alignment, RF power / RSL sensitivity degridation, or hardware modifications, but the situation is so bad that I would switch providers to get reasonable home coverage.

Verizon appears to be the most reliable carrier in East San Jose. I used to have Sprint -- I would have to sit motionless at a bus stop outside my house and point my phone in a specific direction to get reception. I switched to Verizon and have no problems making calls from anywhere in the Bay Area, Southern California, or Vegas.
