The VGA1000 has excellent features but the singal is very weak.

My phone is useless at home. I don't know whether it's the phone or the carrier.

Excellent coverage.

I just switched from TDMA (Nokia 3160) to GSM because the reception is supposed to be better and I wanted a new phone anyway. I got 200x better reception on my 2 year old TDMA Nokia than I do on a brand new GSM LG G4015. I think it is AT&T and not the phone, but it could be both.

Sprint seems to have a large hole in their service in this area.

If I'm outside I can hear fine, but if I'm in the house I receive static. If im in the basement I get static or can't hear at all.

Drops out all the time, rarely get more than 3 out of 5 bars for over a 15 second interval anywhere in Cleveland. Old Nokia TDMA had Good reception for same area nearly 90% of the time. Its gotta be the phone! It looks great, and the games and tones are cool but the reception makes me regret I even got it, free or not!!!

Get frequent dropped calls in this area. Really horrible reception if the call isn't dropped.
