[Q] HTC Sensation rubbish reception

---

Is anyone else having reception issues with the HTC sensation I had previous HTC and have all suffered from this problem I thought by now they would have sorted this issue out.

Also I have used the camera a few times and the phone just turns off.

My signal is full. Someone mentioned in another threat he replaced sim card and problem solved.

Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA App

Sounds like a faulty unit to me.

I have same problem - in my room it tends to go from 1 bar to full all the time - downstairs its goes from on to off all the time, rather annoying !
Got a brand new sim card so cant being that, but so many people
have complained about it cant be one fault handset - its just
faulty design maybe??

This is my second unit and I have tried 3 different sim cards no change. This is what made me take back the original HTC Desire. Looks like this is going back all previous phones I would get 3G in my home and work now I am getting gprs or Edge in the same locations.
I have missed a few calls tonight because of the handset reception goes to none.

just popped my t-mobile sim in it and it seems fine -
it bounces up and down but by 1 bar maximum!

Got my brothers sony play on vodafone - hes getting 4 bars when im getting 0-3 bars.

So maybe it some kind of interaction between vodafone signal and this phone???

said it before will add again i get poor reception (gprs) with vodafone sim but great/better with t-mobile sim. Gonna request new sim. put sim in my desire and get the same response. must be the sim. i also think a new radio update would fix the reception problems. if HTC unlocked the bootloader we'd know for sure.

Mines been playing up signal wise, ive just taken the sim out and put it back in and its working alot better. Weird.

Interesting. I'm a new Voda customer and I have appauling reception now where I had a good one with O2. However signal goes on and off all the time.
My phone also reboots if I take more than a couple of photos.
All sounds like software to me but I'm going to try a new handset and if that fails maybe change to Samsung, not happy with HTC pushing out such poor software on a cutting edge phone, who tested it???

Yeap, rubbish reception. Keeps coming and going even in the same location!

Awful!!!!!
