Works well near home, even in the basement. Phone is over a year old and never a dropped call at home. Also have excellent reception throughout U City / Delmar Loop and Wash U campus.

Yesterday, 1 bar... today full bars... I guess they put up a new tower.

Outside buildings, reception varies from 1-2 bars; inside buildings it varies from 0-1 and occassionally reaches 2. Calls drop frequently, cell goes into roam unless you disable it, drops in and out of the network, and misses incoming calls yet miraculously receives voice mail. Sometimes fails to place a call and provides no reason other than error, try again. I have to stay within a 5 foot area of my apartment near the patio door to effectively use the phone and even that isn't always reliable.

I get 4 bars and the phone still goes to voice mail and then beeps me. I have updated the software but Sprint just says "too bad".

Constant droped calls when on line for more than three mins. Sometimes get 4 bars, but then goes down to 2 and below. Sprint service says im being droped by high usage problems in area. Seems like other callers are taking over mine, because of my weaker reception.

With AT&T TDMA I can't call or receive calls from home (3rd floor apt. in the central west end) or work (9th floor of McDonnell Peds). Reception around Wash U Medical School is also very bad, only 3 bars at best. So far I only get good reception at the Wash U undergrad campus and in the parking lot of Schnucks on Lindell. I have dropped all of my calls... so I will be cancelling my service with AT&T.

Reception is poor to bad in my apartment, although I can use my cell phone outside. One block away, the reception is good.

I cannot use my phone in my house. Sometimes my phone will not even ring - then much later it will beep that someone left a voicemail. I went to the galleria this weekend. The whole time I was there my phone was on roaming. Constantly beeping / changing back and forth between roaming and weak signal wherever I go. Went to Chicago last week and could not even talk on my phone in my hotel room. The only place I seem to have a good signal is in Bridgeton around 270 & the rock road. I just switched to Verizon from Sprint because I always had dropped calls / bad reception with them too. Is there any good cell phone service in St. Louis?

I live in a two story brick apt with lots of windows across from a large city park. 90% of the time I get one bar or less on this phone sitting in my living room. Pretty sad since I'm in the city limits of metro St. Louis.
