Poor signal strength for T-mobile. Also had problems in Barton Skyway area with missed calls.

Many of the calls I get I can't answer and the phone says "Unable to answer call". wtf??? Most of the calls I place discon before the first ring when I first try to place the call, but go thru fine the second attempt. Whatever. I switched from a Treo on Sprint which I was very please with until I moved out here to the east side and found that I couldn't use my Sprint phone AT ALL! They said they were putting a new tower up in about 6 months but wouldn't do anything in the interim, dispite me having a $500+ / mo acct. that kinda pissed me off so I switched to T-Mobile because my brother said his phone worked good at my house. I'd switch back the minute my contract was up except I'm starting to like this PocketPC phone with cell / bt / wifi! (yes! all three) Maybe Sprint will throw up a tower out here and pull their heads out regarding their w-e-i-r-d policy about crippling phone's potential network capabilities.

Almost every call gets dropped. Sometimes if I walk outside my frame house, I can complete a call. I hate T-Mobile and Sony Ericsson.

Switched to Cingular and found it to be the absolute worst carrier I've had in 7 years. Constant dropped calls, echoes / poor reception, missed calls, inability to dial out. Phone was replaced, but not without much haggling and speaking with over a dozen people at various levels within Cingular. Reception is still a mess, yet Cingular only dodges the issue at this point and won't admit to dead spots in this area. ATT&T / Nokia TDMA was flawless, and as near to a land line over cellular as I've seen... What a mistake it was to switch!

My GSM reception bites. I regret ever changing over from TDMA to AT&T GSM.

I just bought this phone after my last phone went thru the washing machine. The signal has been horrible. Dropped calls, poor signal strength, just bad reception.

Dropped calls all over town but only one bar where I live.

Cingular drops calls all the time. Horrible reception at work (St. Edward's University on S. Congress) and also at home (Y at Oak Hill) The only time this phone gets decent reception is on the road when I dont want to be using it!

This is far from a cutting edge phone, but I have had excellent service throughout all of Central and South Texas with Sprint (and outward areas like Fredericksburg, Dripping Springs and South Padre Island), with only two "dead" spots I can think of - Mopac at 2222, and South Westgate at Willet Trail. Volume is very low, but I believe that is more the phone's fault than Sprint, as my old Motorola Startac was loud and clear.

I've traveled coast to coast as well and I've never had any problems. Every once in a great while I will find a dead spot. No real complaints so far.

Terrible signal for blocks in all directions. AT&T and Sprint serve this area reasonably well. T-Mobile is about to lose a customer.

Recepcion sucks, I should be getting paid to keep AT&T they like totally suck! Needless to say the continous calls to Customer Service because their computers keep on miscalculatin my minute usage, I'm about to sue them for ripping off customers big time. So far they have credited like $150.00 in 3 months of service. I do get my money back after having to argue with them for an hour and escalating my calls. Conclusion AT&T sucks as well as T-Mobile and I want my money back. Can some one offer me just a plain normal descent wireless service. That's all I want this Christmas.

Great reception around the house (top of hill), no big problems around town. Campus buildings = no go. Very few dropped calls.

I loved ATT wireless until Cingular took over two or three weeks ago. Now it totally sucks and I have drop calls all the time. Customer service now really doesn't give a crap for some reason, probably because of all the internal turmoil within the comapny from the take-over.

Never had a problem with Sprint in Austin. Wish they had Bluetooth phones though.

SOS Only all the time. Nothing but excuses from AT&T.

I have not found any dead spots with verizon even with an all digital phone. I frequently have a strong signal when my friend who uses AT&T has none or a very poor signal. I have traveled coast to coast with my phone and have never been without a signal. Even in a poor reception area in the mountains I was able to make and receive phone calls and experienced very few dropped calls.

I do well to get one bar in my neighborhood, and I usually have calls dropping once every 2-3 minutes. It is so frustrating that I drive five miles to the nearest grocery store and sit in my car to speak on the phone. Sprint Sucks in Circle C North.

After finally getting fed up with lousy reception at both my home and office, I decided to try T-Mobile. After signing up for a trial with T-Mobile I decided to place a call from the AT&T GSM phone and the T-Mobile GSM phone -- both while sitting on my couch in my living room. I called my home land line and left a voice message from each. The T-Mobile line was not perfect. I still sounded like I was on a mobile phone and not a land line, but there was no noise and the call was clear and understandable. To my dismay, the call placed from the AT&T phone was about 95% static with not a single word that was understandable. It sounded as if I had just dialed the phone and held it out the window while doing about 80 MPH on the freeway in the middle of a torrential downpour. Now I know why my friends kept complaining. The reception was noisy, but comprehehsible on my end, but I feel bad now that that's what they've been hearing every time they call my mobile number while I'm at home. Though AT&T has always taken care of any issues and I've had no problems in the past, it looks as if I'll be switching to T-Mobile. I'm giving AT&T one last chance next week and trying an upgrade on my phone to make sure my it's their towers and not just my phone. If a new Nokia phone (the brand with the best reception as a general rule of thumb) doesn't take care of the AT&T signal issue, then I'll be making the switch to T-Mobile permanent once my two week trial period is finished. For what it's worth, my wife's AT&T TDMA phone (Nokia) gets great reception in our house (and most everywhere we ever go), but my AT&T GSM phone (discussed above) basically does not work (at least not for conversing) at my house or my office.
