Poor Coverage 90275, 90503, and Culver City

Hello-
I've had Verizon Wireless for several years. I after moving back to 90275 where mobile reception has always been a challenge for almost all providers (surprisingly Sprint has the best coverage), outside my house- the service just isn't that strong. On the main street, 4G LTE has improved dramatically recently, but inside the house, manage 1-2 bars at best and sometimes not even LTE.
Please Verizon improve our 4G LTE data in the neighborhood.
I also went to Culver City to the Blind Barber on Washington Blvd this past week and I had 1x service with 1-2 bars. No data. My friend sat next to me with iPhone 5 with T Mobile and he had full strength and was connected to the internet, while I was dumbfounded.
Since I'm paying for the biggest and supposed best network, what gives? I've already had the SIM card swapped out 2 weeks ago and doesn't really seem to help.

We want you to enjoy the most reliable service calbear92! I'm sorry to hear of your difficulties. What make and model device is this? You stated the SIM was replaced. This would usually be recommended if you were having difficulties in all locations. You stated your service was stronger outdoors. How about in other zip codes? Is this also affecting your voice service? Have we had the opportunity to investigate this before?

Poor coverage report

Duplicate post - Poor coverage report - Englewood, CO
Message was edited by: Admin Moderator

Your signal can be affected by anything from foliage to building structure. Most people tend to have the most problem in the Spring and Summer months due to foliage. Once Fall arrives, you'll see your signal typically gets a bit better.
That said, which phone do you use? Some phones have been affected negatively by the the Android KitKat 4.4.2 update.

Network coverage drops in and out after upgrading iPhone 4s to ios5.1, Network coverage drops in and out after upgrading iPhone 4s to ios5.1, Network coverage drops in and out after upgrading iPhone 4s to ios5.1

Can anyone please tell me what I can do to fix the following problem....I updated the software to ios 5.1 two days ago and since then my network coverage drops in and out. Very difficult to make recieve calls with this happening every few seconds and near impossible to use the Internet. I have contacted support but got no support as 90 days had just ended. I have researched this problem all over the Internet and am now aware that I am not the only one with this problem after the upgrade. I have reset many times and read every post and still there are no answers...Can anyone please help? I'm trying to run a business and it's impossible with the phone doing this now.

I have been having the same issue for the last two weeks. No real indication as to why it ever began other than I had turned off my router and Airport Extreme Base Station off for a weekend while I was away from my place.
iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, all have no issues at all with my Airport Extreme Base Station. Can stay connected throughout my living room, bathroom, bedroom, no issues whatsoever.
My 5 month old MacBook Pro 2.66 GHz Core i7 Airport is sometimes perfect, able to connect, DHCP, and browse without issue. Then, for no reason, I won't be able to join my wireless network, or when I can join, I can't pick up an IP address. And then it will connect, pick up and IP, and then it won't browse. No real rhyme or reason to when this will happen, or when it works.
I thought that it was an issue with my MacBook Pro, but then my sister visited with her brand new MacBook Pro 2.26 Intel Core 2 Duo, and while a month ago she was able to connect, DHCP, and browse without issue, this weekend she had all of the same issues I was having.
My XBOX 360 and MacBook Pro have absolutely no issues with the wired connection. Only my WAN seems to have this issue.
Did you ever find anything more to this?

Shipping(Intra City and Inter City)

Hi,
I have a problem ,does SAP Transportation covers both Inter and Intra City Route Planning.
Kindly reply me as soon as possible.
Reward points if helpful

Inter city is like Direct Store Delivery that a Truck will leave with multiple delivery orders of multiple customers for same route and for this client want to track the time and cost spend on that route as well and this is with in one city and in this case there may be 50-60 routes
Intra City is when delivery is between cities like if my customers are distributed and I have to deliver to their warehouses in this case shipment cost is most imp.
So now can Transportation covers both .Beacuse I have worked on DSD and I know in that inter city is possible coz we have visit list and plan in it and can have multiple customers good loaded on to one truck moving with in the same city
I think now its easy for you to anwer
Thanks for replying Murali

Poor coverage for past 10 years in Upstate SC

We have endured 10 years of abysmal coverage from Verizon and are so tempted to go elsewhere. We would like to ditch our land line but can't. Verizon keeps advertising they are expanding, even bringing expanded 4G LTE and have the largest network, while some of us still get 1X. Regardless of what any map shows, there is no 4G here, only 0-1 bars of 3G sometimes, and many times only 1X with 0-1 bars. We are only 7 miles from a major Interstate exit, only 6 miles from a Verizon store, and if you go towards the exit and store, not 3 miles away, you can get 5 bars and 4G. We've been through multiple phones over the years, so it's not the phones. It's not our home, coverage is still bad at the road at a high point and even down the road a mile or so in the other direction towards the Interstate, where data and calls have dropped. I've called customer service many times so they can ask me the same questions, I give them the same answers, and then they proceed to tell me we're in a marginal service area. Gee, you think??? So why not do something about it? Southern Greenville County in SC is a VERY under-served area if you ever get on a map of cell towers, yet we have subdivisions out here too. How about expanding where people need service for a change, instead of ignoring us. And they want us to PAY for the privilege of a network extender so that we can run their service through OUR Internet. It is very disappointing. Don't get me started on the service near the SC/NC coast where a friend of ours lives. They just got 4G in the last year and service is still kind of spotty.

One more thing, even when the phone shows 3G, not a whole lot happens when you do try to use the data. It's almost like there isn't a data connection, so bad as to be unusable most of the time. I usually just have to turn data/calls off and switch to Wi-Fi when I get home, which means no calls without standing by a door or over the toilet in the bathroom, lol.

Why does my iphone have poor coverage and other phones work good

i have two AT&T phones, 1 iphone 4 and the other a motorola tundra for work. My question is why does the Motorola tundra have 100% signal and my iphone go in and out of service continually....from 3g to no service and then to E network then back to O network and then to no signal at all. very frustrating

Open the App, then try the settings and options within the Game.

Network problem with Verizon in NYC and Jersey City

Hi
I have an IPhone 5 on my friends shared plan and ever since I joined Verizon , the network signal has been pathetic. I feel I am being duped of monthly bills as the there is nil coverage on my 41st floor office in downtown Manhattan as well as my residence in downtown Jersey City. Forget about 4G , even 3G stinks for Verizon in this area. My problem is one pays them to have phone for 24 hrs connectivity but Verizon doesn't offer me connectivity for 12 hours of the day I am in office and the only net connectivity on my iphone is when I am back home on my home wifi. I can't understand Verizon being a leader in telecom , can't invest in their infrastructure so that its users don't have to bear this pain.The kind of service you offer, I am sorry to say , is not up to your standards. Kindly suggest how would you solve my problem, I m barely 5 months into the plan and just don't want to be a cash cow to you where once I have signed a contract with you , you forget about your promise to offer me world class service and just expecting monthly payments from me.
Regards
NK

Hello NK
I would be happy to address any concerns today. I want you to love us. Service on the 41st floor could be very challenging. Here's a great link that will show you the network extender:http://bit.ly/AKkC
It's like a mini cell tower. What is your home zip code. I will check the area and look into this with you.

How to make Verizon aware of poor coverage area

I live in a relatively densely populated suburban community and yet we have very POOR service coverage in our neighborhood. I remember the days of frequently dropped calls. But now I am accustomed to never dropping a call. But lately, and it does seem like a recent phenomenon, I drop every call upon entering my neighborhood. So, how can I make Verizon aware of this service frustration? I am certain that others are equally frustrated with this experience and will be considering other carriers if something doesn't change.

Thanks for the details, @walanlove. I checked out the 28105 area and don't see any recent changes have been made or a slew of customers reporting trouble, but it is a fairly big zipcode. You mentioned this only happens when entering your neighborhood. What's a nearby cross street we can take a closer look at? I do see customers in the 28105 area have activated Network Extenders http://vz.to/IHRT6h to improve indoor coverage. This can help with dropped calls at your home.

Coverage issue West of Canon City CO

Just visited the Royal Gorge bridge area located 8 miles West of Canon City Colorado.
There is NO Verizon coverage there, it stops about 5 miles West of Canon City.
The Royal Gorge area suffered severe losses (40+ buildings) in last years wild fire.
The company that runs the place is putting $25 MILLION into renovations, with a grand opening scheduled later this month (August) or in September.
It will not look good for Verizon when massive crowds begin coming and there is NO VERIZON COVERAGE.
At the very least, get a sharing agreement with AT&T who DOES cover the area.
This area around the Royal Gorge Bridge is known as 8 mile (because it's 8 miles west of canon city).
I visit campgrounds there routinely during the summer, and I don't want to switch to AT&T
Please send this up the org chart. This is a critical area that Verizon is missing.
Thanks
Rick

Poor Coverage in Highly Dense Region

>>Duplicate post removed to comply with the Verizon Wireless Terms of Service. See Re: No coverage when there should be coverage.<<
Message was edited by: Verizon Moderator

Yes. It's always been poor, but seems to be have really gone downhill this trip. My mother's phone (a much older flip model) will only do 1X inside her house. I suspect you're probably on the cell tower located somewhere near 40.639144, -74.887697, but there's a huge topography difference between that tower and the area I stated in the original post. Area in original posting is much higher and if you're aiming flat or down to focus your signal, you're running into the side of a pretty significant hill on the order of +200 feet difference in elevation.
As soon as I get down off that elevation difference and more on par with the presumed tower location, service jumps up dramatically to 4G, with full data and no call drops. Go back up the "hill" and it drops, I get mobile networks not available, can't place outgoing calls, text messages fail repeatedly and have to be resent (when on mobile data, not WiFi), etc. Repeatable day in an day out.
Not likely my phone since it works perfectly in every other location and other phones in the same immediate vicinity as mine experience the same problems.

Poor coverage in Minneapolis

My kids, both of whom are grad students at the U, live in 55405. One has a very old device that she is waiting to upgrade because she concludes that she may not be able to continue with Verizon, since the coverage is so poor. The other has a Motorola Droid Razr. We have a family plan, but may have to ditch it because winter is coming and these two can't talk inside their apartment! Their friends who have AT&T have NO problems. We live in Atlanta, and have been happy for many years with Verizon, but this is really a problem. I have browsed the forum and found many other posters concerned with these issues. Sadly, the responses have been poor excuses: thick foliage, large numbers of other people around , or difficulty providing coverage indoors. Really, Verizon, what is your plan? Other services seem to be able to handle these issues. You are better than this! Or should be.

Their outdoor service is better, but we ARE talking about Minneapolis in the winter! It is unacceptable to have to go outdoors when it is bitter to talk on the phone.
Our coverage is fine.
We have read about the extenders, but it seems that they do not always work. Also, it seems unreasonable to ask customers to buy an extender to remedy a deficit in Verizon's service. Could Verizon provide one free of charge for them?
Thanks-

Reporting Poor Coverage

I recently merged cell plans with my fiance and transferred by phone service from AT&T less than a week ago. However, I appear to get extremely weak or no service when I am in my office.
Yes this is an indoor location (22060), but AT&T is reporting 4 of 5 bars of 3G service on my iPad. Yet my "more coverage in more places" Verizon 5S is reporting a whopping 1 of 5 bars of 1x service or No service. I've had to walk outside and down the street to get a signal to get any messages out. Even my Sprint work Blackberry is reporting 4 of 5 bars of 3G service.
Its easy to put red color on a map outline and claim superior coverage. It is something else completely to ACTUALLY HAVE SUPERIOR COVERAGE.

I am not in the office today so I do not know if that will help. But I
will try. If I do get a roam charge I will dispute it and use this email.
As for other Verizon users, turns out the phones what were issued by the
company were originally Verizon but they changed to another carrier because
there was no signal in the building. This was apparently a year or so ago
and yet based on my experience hasn't changed which means we won't be
switching back anytime soon.
As to your assertions that Verizon cannot anticipate signal strength inside
buildings, I find that incredibly irresponsible from a system design and
engineering standpoint and counter to assertions that your service is
superior to that of other carriers. When every other carrier has superior
signal availability inside our building compared to Verizon devices it make
us SERIOUSLY regret signing our contract.
I will try the "roaming" option but since I cannot actually get a signal to
start with (according to the phone) in the building I don't have high
hopes. At this point we will just count the days until we can cancel this
sub-standard, poorly designed, service, warn others to stay away and not
believe the questionable claims in Verizon advertisements, and eventually
get service with a provider who actually designs their system to be used in
locations where people actually need and use them.

Get in contact with Verizon about poor coverage?

Is there any way to report poor service in my area? I have been with Verizon since 2005, my area showed up on the LTE coverage map in 2011. The problem is 4G is extremely spotty and all phones almost always revert back to 3G or are unable to complete a 4G upload speed test. The only place I am able to get stable 4G reception in my house is upstairs (with HTC, Motorola, and Apple phones). When you live in a spotty 4G area you notice that some manufacturers use better radios than others.
The closest cell phone tower to my house is located about 2 miles to the east of town right on Interstate 75. The other cell phone tower is located about 3-4 miles down 75 which serves the northern portion of town. Downtown and almost all residential areas have non-existant LTE coverage unless you're outside and you're lucky to get that. The phone might read LTE sometimes but it's usually about -111dB and unstable. 2 miles west of town there is a major CSX intermodal train yard that links NYC to Chicago which also has no LTE coverage. My zip code is 45872 and the map shows LTE coverage for the entire area, and it has for years, and while this might TECHNICALLY be true, as in the tower is 4G, it's very difficult to connect to LTE while in town.
I highly doubt Verizon has any knowledge of the issue or plans to fix it anytime until the next upgrade to 5G or whatever that may be. I'd really like Verizon to consider fixing the issue or remove the LTE coverage from the map.
I am not new to this, I have had LTE devices on the Verizon network since the Thunderbolt came out. Since then I have had the iPhone 5, iPhone 5S, Droid DNA, Droid RAZR, Droid RAZR Maxx HD, HTC One, Galaxy Note 2, Galaxy Note 3, Galaxy S3, Galaxy S4, and the HTC Rezound (I believe this is all of them).
I don't have any issues with dropped calls and the 3G works OK, but with more data intensive applications it would be nice to actually get what you pay for and utilize the 4G speed.
Verizon only seems to care if users have LTE data coverage by the highway, not in the town. It didn't used to be a big deal but now that nearly everyone has 4G capable devices, the issue is really obvious. I will work with Verizon on the issue if they'd like, I would really just like to have the issue taken care of.
Thank you

The Verizon rep (TonyG_VZW) was communicating with me through direct messages and was supposed to call me but never did. So I don't know if a ticket has been filed or not but apparently contacting someone on here is one way to do it. I'm really doubtful that anyone will ever come and fix it. The east side of town is great but the west (where I live) is poor. I think as long as they can mark it as a "LTE" area on a map, that's all they care about.
The truth is that everyone knows that LTE sucks here, but no one really knows how to complain about it. It IS an issue and always has been, ESPECIALLY if you own a Samsung phone. The only real way they could fix it here would be to put up another cell phone tower which I highly doubt they will do, the position of the current one honestly makes no sense, it's about 3 miles from the center of town, if it was more centrally placed they would of only had to put up one tower, but now about 75% of the town has to live with slow 3G, and because the majority of people are using 3G at the same time on one tower, it's SLOW.
I don't think Verizon cares enough to put up another tower here, even with there being a major CSX inter-model hub, which is more than 5 miles long itself. It lies on the west side of town and 4G signal is extremely poor, they're building commercial shipping companies across from CSX all the time and they service out there it horrible. I'd switch to AT&T if I didn't have unlimited data because it's much faster here, the towers are more strategically placed and there appears to be more than one.
sj_deg6, try contacting a representative by direct message on here, maybe you'll have better luck than I did.
I ended up buying the zBoost DataBlast YX550-VLTE-AWS for $160, I had to put an antenna on my roof. My 4G signal ranges from 2-4 bars and usually about 19db on average, although LTE still sucks outside my house. I hope that helps.

Eastern Europe Maps - poor coverage because of dis...

Hi, I live in Bulgaria which has, like most of eastern Europe, pretty limited coverage in Nokia Maps. This makes navigation almost useless here. What is most ridiculous, Plovdiv - the second largest city in Bulgaria is represented on Nokia maps with just a few main streets. There are similar examples for Romania, Serbia, Bosnia, Macedonia also Turkey and other countries around.
So I checked Nokia support for how to report missing map data. There is a page which explains there are 2 map data providers and provides links to NAVTEQ and TeleAtlas. What is interesting here: TeleAtlas has fairly good coverage in Eastern Europe but it seems like this data is not used by Nokia Maps. Anybody knows what is the reason Nokia not to use TeleAtlas data? Corporate policy?
I learned from other discussions that some time ago Nokia Maps used TeleAtlas and for this reason older Nokia Maps had better coverage especially in Bosnia and Serbia.

No it's not luck as psychomania said, this is solely Nokia's fault. Navteq maps are complete in every part of the world. Only problem here is lazy **bleep** Nokia not updating the maps they make us download from that **bleep** map loader. Navteq is not responsible for this. In Jordan, we still haven't got the new updated maps...
Just read and **bleep**ing laugh:
"Ovi Maps for mobile is always with you in over 180 countries worldwide. It shows you where you are, what's around you, and gives you the local knowledge to find what you need." This is written on Nokia's maps homepage!
