Sprint, Nextel, Virgin and Boost dead zone! These phone companies all use the same carrier (Sprint). The only reason I keep my old phone is because I can force it "roam" to use Verizon. Other wise my Sprint phone is useless at home.

Reception in most of the South Bay is very good. Signal drops off along Artesia from Aviation to Hawthorne. May have been the phone though, I've had a SE W600 for a few days now and the signal seemed stronger on that same drive.

Drop calls to no signal. I have to go outside to make a phone call. AT&T had the best service before they merged with Cingular. Now I feel like one of Cingular's step children. Every time I talk to a Cingular rep about my recpetion problems, they immediately want to switch me to one of their contracts. I tell them "No Thanks". Don't switch to Cingular. They suck.

Strong reception. I switched and left the horrible GSM services of Cingular / AT&T... I couldn't stand the numerous dropped calls and it annoys me that my friends who are still on the GSM network are always getting cut off when I'm talking to them from my Sprint service. Generally in South Bay area, I have no issues with Sprint's reception except in portions of Hermosa Beach.

My wife, my daughter, and myself all use AT&T service and have had very few poor connections. Usually when we did experience a poor connection, it was becuase we were inside of a building however, most of the time we don't have any connection problems in buildings. My wife and I both use the LG G4020 and our duaghter uses a Nokia (sorry, don't recall the model but it was whatever free one was being offered when we added an extra line for her).

Very little reception. Verizon does not seem to care about this area.

the reception fluctuates from no reception to full bars 3g. funny thing is, it will fluctuate even when the phone is stationary. I had AT&T previously with my Nokia 95 and reception here was always full bars.

Have to stand outside to get a signal, and get the dreaded "no service" display indoors. Maybe Verizon should spend it's money on increasing service rather than advertising. Others get T-Mobile and Boost Mobile reception with no problem...

POOR TO NO RECEPTION. So poor in the residential area around and West High School, we canceled services. We could not call each other for about a 2 mile radius if any one was in a car or home. Now we have AT&T no problems. Minimum 3 bars everywhere.
