@shinchan^^,
It shouldn't take too long. Unplug it and re plug it in.. Make sure you're connected to the internet for activation process to take place.

GSM 900 is the normal GSM/GPRS/EDGE speed (when u see 'O' or 'E' or nothing after your MY MAXIS wording)

UMTS is when you see '3G' next to MY MAXIS.

I am just stating a theoretical fact only, death grip also depends on several other factors, like indoor or outdoor, on ground level or elevated, how strong a reception at your area, etc.

Basically, the higher the frequency the phone is working in (1800 - 2100Mhz) the more susceptible it is to so called death grip.....just go get a case / bumper for your phone and you should not encounter it nemore. 

I don't think there's anyway for Apple to address this issue properly since its a design flaw unless they change the entire design / outlook of the phone.

The most probable way to address this issue is to bump up the transmission power but this is not healthy and may not pass the authorities as it will increase the SAR (specific absorption rate) rating, not to mention this solution only solve half of the problem...the receiving part is still the same (signal may still drop). Hope Apple is not going this way. 

So all in all, yea, there's no solution to it.

This thread is to discuss if any of you all are experiencing signal drops when holding the phone for both Maxis and Digi users.

Anyone who got their Iphone 4 experiencing such problems?

how abt maxis set? anyone try maxis set?

Ppl, you can always get a bumper or case for your iPhone 4. I'm using capdase and so far didn't encounter situations where signal lost totally..
