my present phone has terrible connectivity problems and constantly loses signal. Will this one be better for strength and connectivity?

I haven't had any issues with reception due to the phone. Its all been the provider, although even that has been very little to none. Been a pretty good phone for me!

Sorry, I got rid of mine it was just to bulky. I bought a (Sprint) Motorola Renegade that I am happy with. Wish I could help. Larry

It depends on what is going on with the old phone. If you have a bad radio(antenna) then yes it will be better. But generally speaking most relatively newer phones have the same antenna in them.

It could have to deal with your network. I have sprint which is already known to be kinda spotty on all of its non-smartphone networks. I can say from my experience that this phone doesn't seem to have connectivity issues any more than other cell phones in its category.

I have had this phone for about a year. The only place that I have a problem is in the warehouse that I work in.

Not at all. Your carrier doesn't care whether or not you have 1 bar or 5 bars on your phone. This enhances the signal. On my Sprint here at the office, which is notorious for bad reception, we went from 3 bars and 3G to 3 bars and 4G. Your mileage may vary.

yes and no. it will boost your ability to talk. as for data your phone will say you have good service but the "connection" or ability to get and receive data doesn't improve. i was told i needed a better antenna haven't hooked it up yet. it seems it just boost the signal but doesn't improve service as far as data.

It should, it's basically just a stronger antenna than what your phone has. If your phone gets a weak signal it strengthens it . If there is no signal at all on your phone then it will not help.

Hi, the one I have was unlocked and in good conditions. Seems it's support is dropped by vendor by still it's a good phone with reliable radio and networking connection

We have this at the ranch to increase cell phone and wireless signals. Prior to installing this unit we would only get 1 or 2 bars for signal strength. Now we get 4 or 5 bars and no signal issues. To answer your question at any given time there are 5-6 devices using the Wilson Unit with no issues. We had a BBQ at the ranch and had 20-25 cell/smart phones operating on the signal with no complaints.

I dont know. My zip is 38562. But I travel and have never had a problem with signal strength.

I am with AT&T4G and the device didn't work well with this carrier. My text messages were really delayed, the wifi would disconnect all the time...I ended up returning it. Too bad because it was a great phone

I agree with the other replies. You will need something much stronger for a good signal..

the WIFI is not especially good, it gives very poor signal strenght and bandwidth So I had to use the RJ45 instead. And there is no connector for external antennas so there is no way of strengthen the signal.

Yes, a bit. As other reviewers have noted, you'll probably lose about 1/2 a bar with the phone in this case. Usually not a big problem, but if you are in a marginal signal area it could be. Also, it will have an impact on battery life since the phone has to put out more power to keep connected to a network.

Should as it is a world phone. Check the GSM band of your network provider. Many newer phones with better performance have been released since this HTC.

The only time my phone had weak signal (wifi and 4G) was sitting on my toilet in the far corner of the house (wifi is on the other corner). With the new battery, signal on the toilet is still weak, but i can still connect. The only thing that doesn't work is the NFC (transfer pictures or files by touching two phones back to back).

Whatever you try to do with this phone I would suggest you do it while using a wifi connection to increase reception and bandwith. I had big trouble with the performance of this device. The claim is that is in the 3G range but I would place it more in the 1G range if that. By far the worst phone I have purchased in the modern era of smartphones!

That plays a significant part in it, yes. Less powerful mobile devices will have more difficulty keeping a solid signal over distance. However, the adjustable power output of the 700 helps mitigate some of those issues in smaller to mid-size environments. I can get adequate signal with a 700 on one corner of the block all the way to the other corner with low-end laptops, and every smart phone I've tried so far, still keeping the power output pretty low. All in all, it's a pretty good device.

Yes, as far as I can tell. I researched it heavily and it all seems to be right. In my research I discovered earlier models had trouble with reception quality, I believe I have the earlier model.

I agee it is better. My cellphone signal is otheriwse abysmal and this device picks up the signal from the nearest tower and does very well. (That's why it needs to lock into a GPS when you first set it up, so that it can figure out where it is, and thereby figure out where the closest/strongest cell tower is located.)
