Hi guys. Got a problem with my note. I keep losing reception all the time. At home, I can never get any reception. The phone is always at -111dBm 1asu.

When I go out in the car it goes up a bit to about -90 or so. I can get signal for a while, then it drops back down again. Anywhere I go it's like a see-saw! Up-down-Up-down. Can never get a stable signal. Even out in the open! Any help?

I'm on stock gb 2.3.6 rom. Baseband is N7000DXLC1. Any thing I can do or shall I send it back to Samsung service. The phone is a week old

Guys, any info on how to boost signal strength. My signal strength is always between -111dBm and -90 or so. Can never hold anything higher than that. Always in-out-in-out. I get no reception at my house in Tropicana, PJ. I'm using galaxy note stock 2.3.6 ROM not rooted. Using digi smartplan. I don't think it's digi as my wife's HTC wildfire (also digi) shows -79 in the house, while I'm showing -111 all the time.

Totally weird and extremely frustrating. Don't get the same issue on my iphone3gs

It's due to the bumper and cases covering the antenna.

Do you guys think that flashing with a custom rom might help? I'm a noob with all these rom thingys...

Does this happen to all of your bumper?
Have you tried other network provider such as Maxis and Celcom?

Custom ROM may help but better don't do that first and try to eliminate all physical possibilities.

No bumper. The phone is naked. Even without any sim inside, the phone cannot detect any network.

Your phone should basically works well . You DON"T solve such problems by flashing custom roms
If you are unhappy with the reception, either change simcard first or sent in to service center to check

Will send to the service centre. I think thats the best approach for now.
