Very bad reception in area

Our area has very bad cell reception. It takes me 3 or 4 calls to get a full conversation in with anyone. I work from home 3 days a week and I really need better reception. We are in area code 22556. is there anyway to get better reception without having to buy a signal booster?

We are in zip code 22556. Voice and data are bad reception. We have our
phones connected to WIFI while at home, but if WIFI is turned off we get 3G
on and off inside and outside. No physical damage to our phones. My wife
just got the new HTC One 8 and I've had my GS3 for just over a year now.

Very bad reception

Reception on verizon iPhones became really bad recently.
Before I use to have signal everywhere. Now I barely get 1 bar or just (1x) displaying on the phones when we are at home. It does not matter if we are inside or outside. The internet is even worse! Unless we are on the wifi takes an eternity to load a page.
I called verizon and they said the only option would be buy an extender. I really don't think is fair that we pay our (not cheap) monthly fee to get services and also have to pay for an extender in order to be able to receive or make call on the cell phone when we are home.
By the way this is affecting our 3 iPhones 5s and the iPad Air.
we are seriously considering switch for a different company, since they are even willing the pay the early termination fee up to $350.00 per phone.
Any sugestions?

Rafinha,
We definitely would not want to see you leave! Let's find out what is going on! What zip code are you in? Have you tried resetting the network on your devices? (Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings) Do other model devices have the same issue, or is it just your Apple products? I definitely want to help find a solution that will work, especially since this seems to be a recent issue.

T400: Very bad experience

I really don't know where to start, I have had so many problems with the T400 from the past one month! So, let me start at the beginning:
PC Config: WinXP, P8600, 4 GB Ram, 160 GB/7200 RPM, ATI 3470 card.
1. I got the the PC the 2nd of October. Out of the box, the computer was slow, much slower then my one year old Dell Vostro (1.6 core2duo, 160 GB/5400 RPM, 2 GB RAM, Win XP). The Vostro trumped the T400 both in boot time and regular usage.
2. I then started having issues with the display. Started getting weird lines on the screen. The speakers were making a screeching sound and there were some issues with the microphone as well. Called up Lenovo tech support and sent the PC to the service center. To top it off, I had a very bad keyboard with abnormal amounts of Flex and a displaced thinklight which was illuminating me rather than the keyboard.
3. The folks at the service center replaced the system board and also said they fixed the speakers.
4. I got the computer back and I continued having issues with sound. Sometimes, it doesn't play. And when it does, it has that screeching sound again. The PC was incredibly slow too. No improvements in the booting speed or speed during regular use. The didn't fix the computer back properly and everything from the plastic around the display to the case around the over the media card was loose. I could make out they hadn't put it back properly and I would press it in and it would come out. Moreover, the computer started hibernating all of a sudden. It is so irritating when you are in the middle of a presentation and all of the sudden the computer goes off. I had to restart it constantly. It also hibernates suddenly when I start up the computer from hibernation mode. I enter the windows password and once I'm in windows, the PC hibernates.
5. I called up technical support and told them all these issues. They said I can send it back in again for repair. I told 'em I would rather want the PC replaced rather than send it to repair again since I may have start having issues with it again. After 8 factory restorations, moving 100 GB data around each time and installing all applications again, I was fed up.
6. They agreed to replace the PC and I got the new computer today i.e.., 4th Nov '08. This is where things get interesting. The computer started up normally and I got the initial settings configured. Once I got into windows, the first thing I did was restart the computer. As it was booting, it froze at the XP loading page. I restarted the computer via the power button, and the same thing happened. I continued restarting for another 3 times with the same result. So, assuming a bad OS installation, I went ahead and did a clean install through thinkvantage. As the installation was going through, at some point of time, the PC restarted and got stuck at the same XP screen again. I restarted it a couple of times until, fortunately it went through. It then started installing applications and for some reason, it restarted and again got stuck at the XP loading screen. As of now, it is stuck there and won't go through.
7. I got on the phone with tech support and the only thing they could do was to send it to the service center.
A brand new computer right out of the box is heading to the service center. It doesn't feel like a new computer any more the moment it goes to the service center. I'm utterly and totally disappointed with the way Lenovo is building these computers. If this is the case, I might as well take my business elsewhere.
I don't know if I'm the only person out here with such problems or if there are any one else. And, I apologise for such a long post.. Please tell what I can do now. I don't want to go through the same headache again.

If it was 'really dark/ clear' then why sales guy was offering me a contract with a phone? Also, he said everything is clear from their side when I said I am interested in the best buy offer. This is very bad when you are ready to sell on your contract, but don't allow customers to buy from others.
Just wanted to let you know this 'customer service' as I spent more than half day in long waiting at both best buy and verizon shops... I thought I would get some solutions... Anyway, I moved on...

There are times 5s lagging very bad after I update the IOS 7.03, need help

Before I update to my IOS 7.03, I don't have this problem before. But now, once in a while my phone is lagging very bad, not sure of why. But it will goes away after a while. Anybody else having the same problem?
It happens most of time during log in. It's impossible to use the finger print log in when lagging; and when type in passcode, letter sometime take 1 second to respond on screen.

Basics from the user guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. Try each step in order until your problem is solved.

Fios Internet connection is very bad! Please help!

Hello,
I play an online game called Final Fantasy XIV. I use a program called WTFast in order to have a solid gaming experience, one without or very little lag or disconnects.
Recently, within the last 3-4months, I have noticed I get EXTREME lag and DISCONNECTS. I contacted WTFast with a tracert that they analyzed, and here is their response:
"Your internet connection is very bad. There is a "plateau" spike. This will cause WTFast to spike as well, and for such a long "spike" it is not surprising that the connection was dropped.
The previous report showed a very unstable internet connection as well (the one where you got a 30 second freeze).
Present the same reports you sent to us to your ISP (Verizon FIOS) and ask them to try to make their connection better. The report will help them see the quality of the current connection."
Here is the information in the more readable form (except for the last four as I figured you would probably get the idea by then). Yes, 4 shows 100% packet loss, so the connection dropped then. Also, in 5 the standard deviation is high (16.35 ms) which indicates a huge fluctuation in the signal. The flux column also shows large numbers, which indicates a large variance in the signal speed. Finally, there are a lot of hops just within the ISP, ie rows 2-8, and all this data is for the ISP itself, not the WTFast connection. In fact, that connection is the last one, and there you can see good numbers. Hope this helps.

I did a tracert from my computer to sites like MSN.com; Verizon.com etc, and EVERY SINGLE 4 shows a 100% loss. I did the same tracert from my computer at work that uses a different IP provider, and those same sites show a response from 4.
Can anyone help me out with this please! Thank you for reading!

Error message: "Warning: unresponsive script". Afterward, the system freezes and will then crash. Crash reports have been submitted many, many times without response. I have tried the fore-mentioned solutions with either no results or very bad results which I filed a report but did not receive an answer. The application to block scripts actually worsened the problem and I could not correct the situation for a while (no response from Firefox, at all). I have also been through this procedure without any one contacting me, AT ALL.
== URL of affected sites ==
http://http://www.facebook.com (always) and www.YouTube.com (sometimes)

There does appear to be any support whatsoever from mighty "non caring" FIREFOX & people are getting fed up. We may as well try another system, if they can't be bothered to provide any support for their system, we can't be bothered to use their system.

Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Hdmi adapter for Ipad has very bad resolution

Hallo
When i plug in my new Ipad digital-av adapter into my TV or projector the resolution is very bad and not shape.
Do you also have this problem?

You've identified that Acrobat's export of the image to PNG was spot on ("... on my Mac it is sharp.").
Some possible sources of the web based image being of "bad resolution" present themselves.
--| Some web based image hosting services provide uploaders that actually downsample an image.
This is to reduce the image file's size and results in destructive remove of pixels. File size is smaller and resoultion can/does take a hit.
--| There may be an issue related to the brower used. You could always install and try out other browsers to check this.
--| You local machine may have a failing graphics card.
There may be other issues. A web search might turn up some leads.
Regardless, neither Acrobat nor Adobe Reader are web browsers and neither are "image viewers" for image file formats such as PNG.
Be well...

Very bad resolution in menus (templates)

I have a number of films taken with a camcorder Canon Vixia HF10. The camera settings are set to NTSC with frame rate 60, AVCHD.
In my iMac (OS X vers.10.7.3), I tried first to edit my movies in iMovie, but soon I discovered that iMovie did not properly manage the AVCHD format.
With Adobe's Premiere Elements , I could however handle the AVCHD format in an excellent manner. But when I got to the final stage to create a menu
of my film footage (where I used Premiere's menu templates) the menus were very bad with poor resolutions. I could see this both at "preview" and on DVD.
The actual films were great with a real AVCHD resolution on DVD.
Why does this happen to the menus? Do I need to burn out my movies without menus?

Hi Bill,
Thanks for the welcome.
I have only used HD Menu Sets.
But which one of the Available Presets in Project settings shall I use according to my camera settings (see my first question)?

Did you use an HD Menu Set, or and SD Menu Set. As your AVCHD material is HD, you should use only an HD Menu Set.
I also assume that you chose the proper Preset at New Project, to match your footage 100%. Is that correct, or did you choose something else.
For the HD Project from that footage, you should be authoring a BD (Blu-ray Disc) and not a DVD, which is SD, and not HD, like the footage. Did you mean BD, when you typed "DVD?"
Good luck, and welcome to the forum.

Nokia 5800xm, very bad battery backup

hi all,
i have just bought Nokia 5800 XM, a week back. I am facing a very bad experience with this new phone since its giving a poor battery backup. The battery is not lasting even a day. I charge it fully in night and it starts getting down next day evening.
I am not using any application, neither any surfing. My talktime in a day is around 3 hrs max and listen to music max 1 hr.
Please suggest any workarounds, is this a generic problem all people are facing with this handset.
Should i contact nokia for replacing it?

First, make sure you don't have any open applications in the background. Turn off bluetooth, Wi-Fi. Reduce the screen brightness to the minimum required for legibility. Reduce the level of haptic feedback. Make sure there is a good network coverage. Update the firmware to the latest version...
If these are done, then take a look at the battery: use the phone until the battery goes dead, or until you see the Battery Low message a couple of times. Then, charge the batter to 100%, uninterrupted. Now, repeat it 2-3 times. After that, use the phone like you normally do. Charge it as and when you want.
If you are comparing the performance with what is there in the spec-sheet, please be informed that what you see in the specs are the ideal values - under "standard test conditions". In practical life, you should expect considerable differences. 3 hours of calls and 1 hour of music does mean a good deal of strain on the battery. If the music is thru loudspeakers, it adds to it.
Cheers,
