May get roam but works

sprint service / reception is so bad here the repeater they sent us to help does not even pick up a signal

I just bought the Nexus S 4G yesterday and I've tested reception from the Fenton Best Buy where I bought the phone all the way to Jefferson Barracks. 4G reception is almost non-existent everywhere, and I've already started dropping calls. I came from straighttalk which is a tracphone and I have never lost a single signal. My download speeds range from 0(75% of the time) to 0.70mb on average and have never been over 0.90mb, which is unacceptable for 4G service. If it doesn't improve after a few service calls or trips to best buy I'll return the device and go back to my straight talk phone..ole' reliable.

Many times I can't connect with outgoing or incoming calls and have to move to a new location and try again. Or it rings and is answered, and then suddenly - silence! I am only a block or two from the ATT tower - is it possible to be too close and some building blocks it?

The phone is terrible, I get 0 bars at the house where my old phone would get 2. I was told by associate the phones are all the same, now they want $35 restocking fee to return phone.

Coverage is minimal and dropped calls are frequent. Roaming list is regularly updated via *228 with no improvements.

I live in Crystal Lake park and many people have to go outside to use their cell phones. In my house I have to go to a specific room next to a window to get the "best" possible reception which is extremely weak.

Service has been very very good, both locally and traveling. Now that my 4 year old phone has died, I'm finding the T-Mobile choices in phone models to be lacking.

My phone had great reception and I only had a few dropped calls! It took great pictures and could hold alot of info and music! I really liked this phone but my screen went out so I had 2 get a new phone! Cant wait till the day after Christmas so I can enjoy my new phone the Eternity 2!

Called T-Mobile several times regarding 0 bars. There are 7 towers within 1 mile of location, per tmobile. They admit there is poor reception, through their own engineering survey, but don't plan to fix the signal problem

I only get one bar of service both inside and outside my home, including at the park a block down the street. Dropped calls and text messaging failures are fairly common. This is a common problem for any visitors with a Verizon phone. Away from my house, the reception is generally great.

My phone doesn't even ring 40% of the time and I drop calls in my house all the time. Also when I am on the phone the reception is crappy and the person I am talking to gets irritated. No T-Mobile reception in the northern states going west either when I wrecked my car in a blizzard. On the plus side T-Mobile had great reception on Whidbey Island, WA.

I have 6 bars and full coverage, but a garbled, nasty reception that ruins any conversation. Ugh

Very few dropped calls. Network seems mostly solid even when far from home. Usually get full bars at home.

I usually have poor or no reception. If my phone is in my pocket or if I'm in a building the chances of having a signal are slim. Phone only goes to 3G mode about half the time. Download speeds are horrendeous, about 1 / 20th of what they should be.

No service in doors in a lot of areas. Looking into Verizon and the Droid or Droid Eris.

I get great service in this area. Even in doors. Samsungs are known to pick up horrible service. I love Verizon. The 3G is fast too.

Constant dropped calls. Phone doesn't ring... the only know way for me to know that I missed a call is if the person leaves a message.

This is downtown St. Louis. In buildings near windows getting 1-2 bars at best, and no voice or data signal at all in the interior. Called Verizon a few days ago and no outages they are aware of. This is just normal at this location apparently -- a dead zone. Others with different Verizon phones having similar issues.

I've never had any problems with the reception.
