Used to have roaming coverage at this location but even forcing the phone into "roam" mode doesn't pick up a signal. Apparently, Sprint has cancelled its roaming contracts for this area. So now, no service, even though Sprint coverage map on webiste shows this area as having roaming coverage. FYI, Verizon wireless broadband works just fine here for internet.
Rarely have 5 bars... typically 3 in South Hampton, ALWAYS poor service (0-1... sometimes 2) in JCP, but decent service most places around Jacksonville.
Cant receive service IN MY HOUSE (I have Home Base Biz!) OR IN MY COMMUNITY - I have to wait to drive to King and Bear on 16 or Shands Bridge area to receive or call out! SPRINT SUCKS!
We recently switched from Cingular to Verizon. Cingular has been working perfectly in this area for years and years, but we switched to get a better plan. Unfortunately, we're taking the phones back. We have calls dropped in the middle of a conversation, we have calls that break in theand out, or no reception period. It works perfectly in Va, even receiving calls in the mountains in places where most won't even get service. But here, right off the interstate, there's no bars???? Hmmm.
The phone I beleive is what determines the reception more than the carrier. As I have had cheap phones with AT&T and had no reception at all in this location.
I am right on the edge of Sprint's coverage area in south Saint Johns County. I currently have zero bars and it occasionally jumps to two bars, but even when I go downtown Saint Augustine, which supposed to be fully covered I still experience problems; When I get inbound calls, most of the time the phone never rings! Hours later I will get a notification of a missed call or voice mail, and even text messages are delayed. This may be phone (hardware) related to the HTC Touch, but the reception when I do get a call is terrible with static or extremely choppy. I CAN say that I have not had any calls dropped, even though I don't use it a lot. I would look elsewhere but I am tied to this bloody 2 year contract for now!
Signal Level is always low no matter which of 4 phones I use, resulting in many dropped calls. (2004 to present 2008) Several calls to T-Mobile customer Service no resolution. This is a poor coverage area, the rest of my family in other cities in Florida have GREAT SERVICE. The area I need good coverage in is just INFEROIR!
