Perfect service from oak view area and in general around town. Using boost mobile actually. Its really rather good reception. No dropped calls in a month ( or maybe one ) which was completely different than my experience with AT&T
Reception is 4-5 bars most of the time. Even when I'm right next to a tower (US Cell told me where the towers were in my home area), it won't get full service, which is weird. But when I leave my home area it roams on verizon, which is the best partner to have. And if there's no Verizon available, it roams on alltel. Great roaming coverage for occasional trips.
I swtched from us cellular to Sprint and I have never dropped a call any where in omaha I drive 10 hours a day threw omaha ad surrounding areas no major issues. reception depends on quality of phone I use 3 different phones for work all Sprint I some phones get better signal than others but overall Sprint wins all the way around. No problems at all any where I have been
I moved to Omaha from Chicago and Verizon hasn't failed me yet. I was contemplating changing to AT and T (major IPhone envy) but decided to stay with Verizon.
Perfect reception, and I'm even in a basement apartment! There is a tower right across Dodge street. In fact, every carrier works here EXCEPT sprint. Go figure. The big complaint I have about AT&T though is that they are seemingly lying to everyone about their rollout of 3G service in Omaha. It was supposed to be here a year ago! What is going on?
I have had the same ATT phone number for 4 or 5 years since living in California and get great reception in all areas of Omaha I got to including Old Market, midtown, 50th and Q, waaaaay out west, etc. The only place it's not good is if I go to Iowa around Crescent. I wonder why so many people are having such poor coverage? I have an out of state area code, but I don't know why that would make a difference.
Verizon has excellent reception in and around Omaha North High School. Could be because there is a tower on the back of the school. Citywide, I haven't dropped a call yet. I'm sure Verizon has dead spots but, it has the best coverage in Nebraska. I've used AT&T and reception was awful. I love the iPhone but, I'm staying with my LG Chocolate, which is on Verizon.
