Fortunately I have 2 friends with i-Phones and though I love the phone itself, neither of them can get any reception where I live and I live in a pretty main hub. All other services work fine here, but AT&T's coverage in the Bay overall just plain sucks :( Too bad, I'd sign up and buy an i-Phone out of the gate if it actually worked here!

Miserable part of the city. Not only do we get zero to one bar at our house, which is right near here, nobody visiting gets any better service, no matter what provider they have. So much for ditching our land line.

This phone is awful as well as the recption if you buy this phone use it for a paper weight. Recption is awful indoors and just ok outside. I do not recommend LG phones period just because of this one product. Inferior products from an inferior maker. ATT should be called A Terrible Telecom - those bars should be for those crooks who claim they work. I'm not joking, I am really not satisfied with these guys.

I generally have good coverage from Sprint, so I wasn't expecting such a lack of coverage in downtown Oakland. Many calls couldn't be completed or were dropped. Sprint's map shows this as a high-quality reception area. Judging from other comments I've read here, this is a long-standing problem. It's disgraceful that Sprint hasn't fixed this. And the City of Oakland should be complaining about being relegated to third-class service when it's trying to redevelop it's downtown.

I have almost no reception in my apartment and when I do, I have to stand in one spot to get. Calls get dropped regularly too.

I would expect more from Sprint in a Major U.S. ctiy like Oakland. Service is so low and poor north of lake merritt. We live but maybe a mile from Oakland's skyscrapers... ..It's just awful, Sprint will probably no longer be our carrier if they don't take care of this by the time our contract is over in January 2009.
