My husband and I are with the 3 network we not long ago upgraded our phones to newer models but we still have the same problem with trying to use them indoors. We are having to stand right next to a window to receive any signal and if someone rings us we have to quickly move to the window so they can hear us properly. Do your phones do the same.

With the growing development of cellphones,it has become the part and parcel of every individual.but the user face a no. of problems while using these cellphones and the most prominent one is network problems.The voice is not heard properly or immediate connection doesn't occur.If we have some urgent work to inform the cellphone is of no use now.It may be the problem of the server or the network itself.. But the cellphone companies must try their best to eradicate this problem otherwise cellphones will become unpopular all over the world.....

I agree with you I think eventually they will devise a new better phone for on the go as opposed to the ones we are using now.

I am using 3G network and no I have no towers near but live in London in a built up area so that is probably the reason I think.

Yes, I can use my cell phone indoors, as I am with Verizon Wireless and the coverage area is quite extensive. When I was with T-mobile, I kept getting dropped calls. I would be on a call with my daughter, and poof, she would be gone as I wouldn't have any service. It doesn't happen now with Verizon, and I am so glad. I sure did get tired of all the dropped calls. I can be anywhere inside and use my cell phone. I think if I had to go by a window before I would get service, I would either want to toss the phone, or change providers. Take care, and happy mylotting.
