Flips between 0 1 and 2 bars outside. Inside between 0 and 1. Drops calls most often on the LG choclate. Motorola KRZR is better. The LG5400 uses all of the battery strength searching for a signal. Must recharge every 3rd day even when only making 1 or 2 calls a day. Verizon confirms poor signal strength. ATT signal much better as there is a tower nearby. Looks like we need to switch.

I get five to six or four bars it bounces back and forth I noticed with my prepaid trac fone I had bars go down when I make a call same goes with my Cingular phone do any of you noticed this to making calls???? Now please don't get me wrong Cingular has pretty good covrage here, and when I used my tracfone it was good as well. I don't know about the other compneys but Cingular has good Reception. Just remember no cell compney or covrage is perfect. Iam new to the cell phone world, never wanted one before didn't thin I needed it
