signal quality - Orange UK

Just changed to Diamond on Orange - updated to latest official Orange Rom 1.93.405.1.WWE and radio 1.00.25.05

I don't know if it's a diamond issue in general or an Orange issue or a faulty handset

The signal often drops to one bar or disappers, only to return to 2-3 bars a minute or 2 later

I have the option of getting the phone replaced if I'm quick, but obviously there is no point if its a common issue

If neccessary I could upgrade the radio, although this version seems to be the most popular

I have no issues with GPS lag or Wifi - just phone reception

I believe this goes to Diamond general.

I have it on Orange too, i came over from Vodafone.

To be honest i wish i had just stuck with Vodafone and waited for it to come out on there. The signal quality with Orange is just plain shit. I used to get signal everywhere in the house before, and now there are about 2 select places where i can make a phone call.

Its utter pants, i will for sure not be staying with them

At a guess I'd say your problem was with with Orange, in my experience with them signal quality is terrible.
A guy I work with was on Orange (he lives in the middle of no-where) and regularly struggled to get a signal, he is now on O2 and has full signal strength most of the time

I have same phone, ROM and Radio and have no problems at all. The signal on Orange is MUCH better than I used to get with T-mobile where I live. I also have a Vodaphone modem stick and signal type (3G etc) and strength are about the same as the Orange phone

So in summary I don't have this problem
