I just purchased this new Sprint phone and I don't get any reception in Granger / Knollwood West or surrounding areas. I did not have any bars until I got closer to the mall. At the mall I had 4 bars and then it showed 0 bars again. Sprint's reception is terrible and I am returning the phone and canceling the contract. We also have a Verizon account which I may go back to or try Nextel. For emergency purposes Granger residents need to have a cell tower and have cell phone that work!

terrible reception can't wait to get of contract

Have to use external antenna with TNC adapter to keep service here. Phone has 4 band antenna built in.

I have phone set to NOT roam. It's barely pulling a signal from the Central time zone (I can tell because it's Chicago time, the line for which is across lake at least 5-6 miles away.

Service went away about mid may of 2006

I can't make calls to any person or voicemail. I cannot receive calls, either. If I do, by chance, initiate a call, it is dropped. I am very rarely even notified of voicemail messages.

With my old (very old) phone I had reception by my garden, but nowhere else. With this phone I have no reception, and neither does anyone else when around here. This is a simple 1 1 / 2 story wood frame house.

We get either no reception or one bar and dropped calls near our home in Knollwood West. A friend who has Cingular, however, can get three bars in our home.

There is NO reception at Kemil beach from Sprint, Verizon, or Cingular (I've tried two Sprint phones, a Verizon phone made for reception, and a Cingular phone here). There aren't any cell towers in sight and very few along route 12. Sprint has good reception in front of Mittal (Route 12) and bars quickly decrease as you head north. There is no roaming from Sprint, so I can also say Alltel / US Cellular has no reception on the lakefront either.

Typically "No Service" at my home on LSD in Long Beach. Service is fine at the Lighthouse mall, but I'd like to be able to use it at my home or on the beach.
