weird signal
Me and wife have same phones and generally work well, however we were sitting in house last night and I could muster an e signal though sometimes g. Wife however quite often got h. We sat phone next to one another and this continued.
The ordinary phone signal meter is showing higher on mine but data is poorer. Is it just down to one of them being made marginally better. SHould add we are both using exaxt same s3 mini official flip cases. As I type im on g.

What network? Phones sitting next to each other can be connected to different antennas at the same site or be connected to a different site completely. It depends on so many things like local data traffic being the most obvious. Reboot both phones and see what it is like.
Most networks do work on masts at the weekend so sometimes causes strange things as they reduce coverage, capacity or switch a mast off temporally. |

There is a couple of network info apps on the play store that give you the cell Id of the serving cell. Install on both phones and you can see of they are on the same site.
They also have an rf level, that may or may not tally up with the phones signal status. https://play.google.com/store/search...rk+signal+info If they are on the same site and showing different rf levels then there maybe something wrong with one of the phones. Try swapping SIM cards to see if the issue moves or stays as is. If it stays on the phone, then I would suggest the phone is faulty. |
