Dropped calls on micro cell cell from weak tower signal

They all drop calls when the phone gets even the least amount of signal from a tower. This happens in South Carolina,Florida,New Jersey. So the problem is nation wide. This problem was identified back in 2010. Has there been a fix yet?

The "problem" is not nationwide otherwise myself and a lot others would be experiencing the same thing.
There are lots of reason why call may be dropped and the causes are varied. The MicroCell does not need a local tower (macrocell) to connect to when in range of the MicroCell. The macrocell is only required at the time of Initial Activation and then for periodic location verification during night time network maintenance ( which is only done ocassionally).
Certain phones (specifically the Samsung Galaxy line of phones) have difficulty with the MicroCell due to OS protocols which Samsung is aware of but very slow to respond.
If you are experiencing dropped calls you will need to give us specific details of your setup, ISP, phone, etc to see if we can help. Your issue may or may not be related to what you are calling a nationwide problem.

Iphone 4s drops calls in new house! help!

I just upgraded to a iphone 4s around easter 2012 after my iphone 4 had water damage, anyway I just moved to myrtle beach, SC and in my house my iphone drops my calls 95% of the time!! It is REALLY frustrating and there is NO apple store remotely close to this area. I havent had any issues of dropped calls outside my house. The annoying this is that my mom has a blackberry and she never had a dropped call. I did *228 to improve my signal and reset my phone multiple times. If I go to verizon they probably wont do anything. I have from 1-3 bars in my house at any time, does anyone have any suggestions?
I cannot cancel verizon because I just started my contract this past Easter 2012.
My only other option is to buy a samsung galaxy nexus 4g on craigslist and keep my iphone as a back up (i wont sell my iphone)

I have the very same issue on Iphone 5 IOS 7.1, original Apple earbuds. Sometimes Music starts, sometimes SIRI kick in, in any case the calls get dropped ! I disabled SIRI, I cannot find a way to disable music. Anyway, when scroling the oen applications, Music is not one of them !
It i making the phone unusable (it is supposed to be a business phone) - pure $700 TRASH.

Hi Experts,
In my home, there is several wifi router and wifi homepulp.
When I going from one area to another area of my home.
The first wifi signal is become weak, but there is existing another wifi signal is stronger than first place.
In this case, my iPhone is keep using previous wifi signal.
So, is there a way that automatically switching from weak wifi signal to the stronger one?
Thank you
Best Regards
Francis SZE

Hi, I have the same problem... I have set all 3 Wi-Fi extenders to the same settings with except for the SSID which Virgin media won’t let me.. And all 3 Wi-Fi points are registered within my ipad also other gear, I can guarantee if there is an interruption in service quality it will be down to the unit not switching over to the stronger Wi-Fi point.... very frustrating but easily manually switched over, there must be a fix out there, regards Greg.

Dropping csv file into a cell?

After updating "Numbers", I can no longer call drop csv files into a cell and have the row complete. What am I missing here?

Hello fellow sufferers of CSV headaches from commas within fields and ; instead of , etc.. They've been around as long as I can remember.
If you don't want to use Excel (which is good at this sort of thing), this script should help. (Dropbox download, AppleScript file). The effect is similar to Excel's Text to Columns but the usage is slightly different.
If you end up with text all in one column as Cuky describes, you simply select the body cells in that column containing the text, run the script, click on a cell (the first cell in the body of the next column to the right often works best) and paste.
The results here look like this:
I deliberately made the unexpanded column untidy and threw some difficult things at it, and it did a pretty good job in testing here. Return or shift-return within a field, even if quoted, will cause Numbers to move to a new line, but that's a Numbers thing that can't be helped. Otherwise, it handles the usual csv conventions better than expected.
If your separator is ; instead of , there is a place you can change that it the script.
If you frequently import data, this is easily placed in the menu, either as an Automator Service or under Scripts.
And it could be modified to read a csv file rather than grabbing values already in a Numbers column, making it almost as convenient as the old drag and drop. It could ask for the csv file and put the results on the clipboard for pasting into a table.
If there is interest in that let me know. And suggestions/feedback on this one welcome.

I Have Received Two New Defective DroidX Cell Phones From Verizon

On Thursday, July 15, right after midnight I ordered the new DroidX Cell Phone from the Verizon Wireless Internet Website.
I received the new DroidX Cell Phone on Friday, July 16.
The DroidX worked perfectly except that it had Dead Pixels in only the Camera and Camcorder Applications.
I then called Verizon Wireless and they sent me a new replacement Droidx Cell Phone which I received on Wednesday, July 28.
It was great at the time since I received the new replacement DroidX Cell Phone seven days before the anticipated August 03 date.
My new replacement DroidX Cell Phone has a very small dent like a impact hole on the back of the main unit.
I noticed the dent as I was unpacking the new replacement DroidX Cell Phone.
I did not even activate the new replacement Droidx Cell Phone since I noticed the dent right away.
I was assured by Verizon Wireless that I was to receive a new replacement DroidX cell phone.
I then called Verizon Wireless and they are now going to send a another new replacement DroidX Cell Phone which they said I would receive the earliest by August 05.
I do not know how a new replacement DroidX Cell Phone can have a dent on back side if it is totally brand new and not refurbished, although Verizon Wireless assued me agian that they are only sending out new replacement DroidX Cell Phones at this time.
Any Comments?
Jonathan

I take it that the device came in the usual brown box, not in a usual commercial designed box, if so I would say there is a very good chance that it was a referb unit... This is exactly why I decided to wait when they wanted to send me out a replacement when I called about the volume level on my device because I have a fully functional unit with only that low volume issue and I can live with the issue until the fix with a update or get some replacements in the store for a exchange.
I really dont want to give up a brand new device to possibly have a referb replacement, a coworker bought a phone through another carrier and the phone messed up and they reported that they would send out a new one since the device was only a week old, but he got the NEW ONE?? the device still has someones information in it. You really dont have any way to know if the device is a refeb or new one when they all come in the plain brown box.
And if you think about the number of individuals that reported that CS sent them a replacement for one reason or another, you know that they are not short on used units...

After updating Iphone 4s to 6.0 the signal is very weak and the phone drops calls frequently.

Based on what?
"When Apple rolled out iOS 6.1, its first major update to iOS 6, yesterday, it introduced a series of bug fixes, software tweaks for iTunes and Siri and also added LTE support - but none of that was any use to the disconnected and discontented sufferers of a particular iPhone software flaw: greyed-out Wi-Fi."

Cannot make calls to landlines and cell phones.

I just bought a subscription for 1 month with skype. I have try to make several calls already and have not been able to connect. Skype starts to call and then it comes up with the message that you have to have skype credit or a subscription. What can I do?

Do you have Skype Credit, or a subscription, to cover calls to landlines or mobiles from your Skype account? If not, then you won't be able to call telephones other than possibly toll-free numbers in a few countries. Remember that a Skype Online Number only covers receiving calls. It does not give you the capability to make calls to telephones.

I don't think your browser would be the problem here. Check the Skype app on your computer, and your account (either through the app, or log into your account on the Skype web site).

We have had Verizon Wireless service since 2007. We have 6 lines on our account. Unfortunately in 2012 when I (903.647.0073) upgraded from the iPhone4s to the iPhone 5 I started having reception problems. I started having dropped calls in my home. I had to go outside to get reception without dropped calls. I was told that because of metal in my home I would have to purchase a Network Extender for $250. And we HAVE not metal in our home. AND our other lines all work fine. I felt this was ridiculous. We already pay $350+/month for service and I should NOT have to purchase additional equipment for a service that I already pay for. The manager of our local store at the time gave us at no cost a Samsung Network Extender. It worked beautifully until about a month ago. I went to our local Verizon store and was told that I would have to purchase an extender. THIS is RIDICULOUS. We have been loyal customers for over 7 years and have been very satisfied with our service. Unless this issue can be resolved without purchasing an extender we will be switching our service as our lines come up for renewal. I regret this as we have been very happy with our service. But we should NOT have to purchase anything extra for one line that will not get good reception. Again, we pay $350+/ month for a service that does not work properly, simply RIDICULOUS! Currently the "sys" light flashes red (slow) and the GPS light remains red. Please help this very frustrated customer.

Regardless with what carrier your with you might have the same issue, My recommendation would be to get a router that will help you with viewing live traffic and keep a tally of your usage and any device connected to your internet connection. You can go with the peplink balance 20 and be able to look at your traffic by the hour, daily, weekly, monthly or yearly. Look for trends, see what computers or devices are doing what I attached a screen shot so you can see an example of mine. You can purchase the router at 3gstore

How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another?

How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another, including text fonts, colours, borders, etc., so that, for example, I can reuse a formatted reconciliation table again in different parts of a sheet?

Hi George,
Wayne found the Spinning Beachball of Death, and you will find it too.
Numbers is not good at handling large datasets. Might I suggest that you group your data into smaller sets (each month, perhaps?) and save each group in a separate Numbers document. Numbers will not link between documents, but you could have a summary Table within each document. Then comes the "clunky" bit of copying all those summary tables into a master document where you do the final processing of the data.
Regards,
Ian.

I just got a Mac book pro 13 ... I need to remove my husbands cell number from this device but dont know how

Are you sharing the same iCloud account as your daughter? If so, that would explain why your contacts are merged. To fix this, you would need to migrate her device(s) to her own iCloud account. After doing so, you could then delete her contacts from your Mac without effecting the contacts on her device(s).
As far as messages, do you have your own iPhone?

My IPhone 6 with AT&T is dropping 5-10 calls a day. Calling from same location as my 5S which never had dropped calls. Is this a hardware or software issue?

My IPhone 6 128GB with current software using AT&T is dropping 5-10 calls a day. I am calling from an office with good signal strength and in the same location as i did with my 5S which almost never had dropped calls. Is this a hardware or software issue? Is this a common issue with the new IPhones?

Hi jackneedshelp,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If calls are not going through on your iPhone 6, I recommend going through the troubleshooting method found at this link:
iPhone: Troubleshooting issues making or receiving calls - Apple Support
These steps can help identify and resolve the symptom that might be causing the connection issue.
All the best,
Jeremy
