One bar outside, no reception or one bar inside.

My wife an I both purchased the EVO 4G but when we moved to this location none of us has good signal anymore. None of m(Sprint)y friend have good signal as well except one friend which has full bars all the time with Verizon.

my house is a compete dead zone!

I'm a new Verizon customer and I'm getting one bar outside, one bar (sometimes no bars) inside my home in the Weston / Davie area. Signal seems to drift in and out much like driving your car further and further away from a radio station. Called Verizon. They said closest tower was less than a mile away and that their technician verified that it was operating properly. Nobody can tell me why the signal is so weak less than a mile from the tower. Would like the Verizon people to stand behind their reputation of having excellent coverage. Soon.

No Reception indoors. No internet, no txt. Might as well be off. Condos, restaurants, everything down there is a black hole. Quite sad really. I used the tower map above and it pretty much spells it out. One cell tower in East Ft Lauderdale. One. Click At&T just as a comparison. Wow. I like my phone and android - but only when it's working.

1 bar then it goes away, 5 bars, then they go away, even if I am not moving around. This is inside my apt. Nothing in the Publix at TC, nothing at Dan Marino Center... .VZW claims we are too close to the tower, I call shenanigans. In Boca Raton I can be in the elevator or my server room and never have any problem. Come on VZW, you have to do better than this.

After reading most of the comments above I notice reception in the house is poor for just about all the providers. Maybe this can be contributed to metal studs in the walls. The use of metal studs is to comply with the Building Code. Maybe a signal booster in in order. I bet there is such a devise you can spend more monsy on just to use the phone in the house.

I get terrible reception, data rarely works. I upgraded to the 4g EVO from my 3G Palm, even worse. I can't even browse the internet and my phone calls are constantly dropping. I've been with Sprint for 9 years and this is the worst it's ever been. Even if I go outside or by a window, it's terrible reception. Even with 5 bars lit, I get poor connectivity.

Very poor, no reception in my apartment, have to walk down the street to make / get a call.

Right getting 3 or 4 bars but it varies a lot. I drop to EDGE regularly in my home.

Cannot get decent reception indoor in office---must walk outside and even then reception can be spotty. Part of the problem may be the new BBerry phone as my old Razor tended to do at least a little better. Coworkers with ATT can send / receive calls and do internet easily when I have to schlepp out to the middle of the yard. I wish I had the phone and the provider to do over again---I would have gone with Verizon or ATT and avoided the BBerry.

Was poor when I complained four years ago they said they were building new Towers. I have few complains

Phone will not work inside my single story home. Must go out in the street for good reception. Seems nobody can get a signal in the Riverside Hotel.

In 2004 after Hurricane Frances, my Nextel phone did not work and my Verizon phone did work! I then got rid of all of my Nextel phones and replaced them all with Verizon phones just in time for Hurricane Jeanne. Immediately following Hurricane Jeanne all of my Verizon phones worked flawlessly and they have continued to work well through subsequent Hurricanes in 2005, and every storm we have had since. I run a small business and we have 8 lines with Verizon, and I wouldn't dream of going to anyother carrier. I knew people with everyother carrier at the time (Sprint, Metro PCS, Cingular, Nextel, etc.) none of their phones worked. I have since learned that in the event of a power failure, all Verizon cellphone Towers are on a generator back up system. Verizon's customer service is excellent, and the have a technical services desk at their larger stores, where you can take your phone in for repair or replacement on the spot - no waiting for a replacement phone in the mail, while your phone is not working. My reception has been great everywhere, except in my own home - where reception is spotty. Verizon is not perfect, but they are far better than anyother alternative on the market today.

Reception has been perfect in this area for us, despite having phones that are a few years old. My other half uses a Sanyo M1 phone.

The Publix at Town Center has barely one bar, Dan Marino has one bar if you are lucky but it never stays.

Along Las Olas from Hendricks Isle to Royal palm - no bars. Again on A1a from Bayshore to Vistamar - no bars. These are heavily populated areas, yet there is no service. Repeated calls to T-Mobile have shown they do not follow through when customers have problems. They have a list of excuses, and now say that Motorola has lowered their frequency due to radiation concerns, and suggest I upgrade to another phone at my expense, because the problem is with Motorola.

I have a love hate relationship with my Blackberry. Inside my house the reception is horrible, constant drop calls! There is also a dead spot right across the street from Bally's Total Fitness that kills my calls all the time. I used to have Metro PCS and the service worked ok. I'm not sure if I should blame my phone or T-Mobile.

Change from T-Mobile to Metro PCS. With T-Mobile the phone has CERO reception inside the house, Metro works fine.

Ever since I was forced to upgrade from a Nokia 6360 to a Cingular 3125 due to an AT&T system upgrade, I have had dropped calls between Sunrise Blvd.Southbound A1A to Harbor Beach (South of 17th Causeway Intracoastal Bridge) and Sunrise Blvd.Northbound on Bayview Drive. Do not plan on any reception at Blue Martini in the Galleria Mall.
