QUOTE(deepan84 @ Sep 29 2010, 09:21 PM) to be honest, all my frens who bought from maxis experiencing some sort of signal prblem. some either drops to 1 bar or to no signal. depends on the 3g strength in dat area. ur fren might have been testin it in a good coverage area, thus no issues. its best just to use a case/cover and jst close one eye. although the signal drops on my set, its not as bad as how they made it to be. i stil can sms and call although 1 bar. just dun be too obsessed over the signal gfx on d fone. Mine drops 1 bar...so not that bad..
Added on September 29, 2010, 9:37 pmQUOTE(giovanni @ Sep 29 2010, 09:32 PM) +1, that's more like the real scenario. Maybe we should drop the signal issue once and for all and move on to some other topics regarding iphone 4. Anyone having camera issues? Splotching & yellow tint etc? not me..

QUOTE(mivec1200 @ Sep 29 2010, 07:58 PM) my iphone4 32G having the antenna issue.. i got mine set at maxis during pre launch event.. when holding the death grip... the line drop from 4, 3, 2, 1 to searching.. no service.. does anyone having the same issue as mine? or 16G working well or im so lucky that i bought the only set that has this issue? i have updated to OS4.1.. is this issue official solved? or it's still a known issues as what apple said "This is a fact of life for every wireless phone"..... If this issue is still exist in all maxis set or a ongoing case.. n why maxis don't offer us the free bumper (instead i have to use sg itune to redeem one) .. which i think is not fair to us.. and i have tested if fitted with bumper then the issue is solved.. refer to this link to test ur iphone whether got this problem.. http://gizmodo.com/5571171/iphone-4-loses-...he-antenna-bandanywhere we can complaint to maxis? as Maxis’ VP and Head of Product claimed the issue is solved during the pre launch event.. Seems like urs a bit critical, from full bar to no service, better send back maxis and request for new one. tell them how the hell u going to make calls with no service at all. |

Death grip problem can be fixed by getting any cases or bumper ... this solution also posted on page 1 ..... I'm sure everyone will get a cases or bumper to protect their lovely iphone rite....  With a cases then the issue will be solved , no need to worry this issue again and can hold watever ways u like |

Wish to know whether sg set face the issue or not For me I am using it with my Vapor case and with the death grip, it takes 2 minutes for the bar to drop from 4-3 It has never drop below that, so I don't find it a problem.  Well, let me ask you this question, do you hold your phone with the death grip style? Do you suffer call drops or static? If no, why bother.  Don't let a simple signal bar drop by 1-2 and limit you from using your phone. |

Hi guys,
I noticed that the response of the signal bars is quite slow (delayed). There are instances when there is no signal but there are 2/3 bars displayed. Only after a few seconds, the No Signal sign comes out.
Do any of you having the same problem?
FYI, im having 2 iPhone 4, 32 Gbs, Maxis sets (week 35 & 36 each), bought during prelaunch.

Ya, if I grab it with death grip style, or when I am answering the call with left land and cover the antenna, call will drop sometime. If you are not using the case, will u suffer the signal problem? |
