"There aren't any towers in zip code 75231. This is a "dead zone."" No, it's not. I was there last night at that same intersection (posting an ambulance in front of the PrimaCare) and had 5 bars. I work for an ambulance company and am all over the DFW Metroplex. I had AT&T and had pretty lousy coverage with the iPhone and the RAZR. We switched to T-Mobile and the coverage has been great, even inside the Baylor hospitals. MetroPCS comes in second.

I have had a great experience with Verizon in DFW. They provide great service in my office, at home and everywhere in between. I would suggest them to anyone.

Always have excellent reception; dropped calls very rarly occur with Verizon, I've been on their plan, going on 3 years! Once or twice at Irving Blvd. and Story Rd. reception has been lost; it hasn't really bothered me too much; I don't frequent that neighborhood very often.

I get near perfect reception anywhere I go, I've had Sprint for the past 5 years, and never had any huge problems with reception. The coverage in Dallas is excellent, as well as the coverage in Austin. I've been all over, and I couldn't be happier with the signal. I personally believe that Sprint is the best in TX.

Verizon Wireless has perfect service throughout D / FW area. Not sure what these people are talking about but I get service in Downtown... uptown... . in the suburbs... . no problem... data works great.. voice works great... best service I have had ever.

It receives perfect reception over "The Colony" and it also shows full strength of signal nearby on Stonebriar Mall(Frisco, TX). Also on I-35 S. Bound at Valley View Ln. Exit thru Royal Ln.

I have never had any dead spots. I travel all around the state of Texas. Alltel + Kyo = Amazing Service.

T-Mobile has good reception inside of my office near the intersection of Royal and O'Connor.

New phone with 2-3 bars indoors. Outside reception 2 to an occasional 4 bars. My old phone a Sanyo SCP - 5300 had an almost constant 4 bars even indoors. I compared reception of my existing phone with another MM-7400 and the newer version of the old phone VM-4500 (SCP-5500) and the results were similar. The 7400 indicated 2-3 bars, while the 5500 indicated a strong 4 bars. Call quality on the new phone however, seems to be as good as before inspite of the indicate fewer number of bars. I've been unable to find out from anyone from sprint if the new phone is more sensitive and indicating more true signal strength or the "other" phones (5300 & 5500) are indicating a false stronger signal. Not sure if either is the case, but lack of some technical expertise from sprint can only lead to speculation. One thing I did with both phones was to request an update (PRL Update) that's not mentioned very much, but it's an update in which the carrier updates the phone so that it can utilize the most current info regarding cell phone tower locations. The idea is that as new towers are added to new areas, phones may not automatically recognize this resulting in continued poor signals or dropped calls in certain areas. I recommend calling tech support to make sure that your phone has the most current available update if experiencing major problems.

I get about 2 to 3 (total 4 bars) in my house on N. Macarthur Blvd. Outside the residential area, I get full signal. Also I get steady 2, 3 signal inside of Devry University building on Regent Blvd.
