network signal boosting code

[Irishfella]

I heard a rumor that there are codes that you can enter to boost the network signal - now this does not make sense to me but is there such a thing?? This might solve my SMS receive problem (see my other posts) which is related to a weak signal (I think)

Can a network provider boost the signal to a subscriber?

On my old Nokia I had some codes I could input to enable/disable different quality rates / compression rates, but they just used more battery power and gave very negligable results compared to default settings.

The only way you'll get a truly stronger signal is to upgrade your firmware - I found that after upgrading to the latest firmware with the 1.04 Radio, my EXTREMELY borderline signal in my house at home improved to the extent that I can now receive SMSes and send/receive phone calls nearly everywhere in the house, whereas before I had to be on the first floor right next to the window with the phone right against the glass to get a signal.
