Re: Facts
I noticed exactly the same thing. I have more problems placing calls than having them drop once I'm on them.
I've been eagerly anticipating the 3G upgrade for a long time, but things have been a real mess leading up to and following the enabling of 3G sevice. Sometimes have to manually disable 3G on my phone to place a call.
Here, T-Mobile has a decent network but their coverage isn't too great. In Los Angeles, AT&T customers can get onto T-mobile's network (since they used to share with Pac Bell), but not the other way around. |

1 edit | That's my ONLY complaint with T-mobile. In north Idaho, there are several areas that are served by AT&T and not T-mobile, and since I can't roam on AT&T...
Oh well, if it's extremely important, I just find me an unsecured wi-fi signal and...
You know the rest. |

Are you having issues with 3G bouncing like a Windows 98 PC ?
When I do have a call on 3G... its great.
Typically, it will handoff to GSM before connecting  unless I force my phone to 3G only, and then I have to hope that the call will go through. If it doesn't, my phone will end up showing 'No Service' until I 'reboot' my phone, Windows style... and even then its iffy.
I have had 2 hour calls on it without issue, on both GSM and 3G, with 3G sounding cleaner (no garble).
