9900 SOS in 3G - GSM-Forum

dukeforever · 10-18-2012, 09:04

Any solution ? Signal is weak ( about -77 dBm at 100m from a tower )

2G works flawlessly

same problem hereeeeeeeeeee

cal_guy · 11-22-2012, 06:11

-77 dbm is good signal strength.
Higher the number = lower signal strength

It's -77dBm when i'm at 100m from the radio tower, facing it !
However i don't know if this means anything as the signal can be strong but low quality.

I'm certain many people have this issue

Fix: poor 3G, SOS mode and reception - BlackBerry Forums Support Community

Might be a solution for some people, i'll try to change my antenna.

However, I noticed that when i put my sim in another smartphone, then in my bb i get lowercase 3g, 5 bars, but i can't surf ( probably the tower is still linked to the smartphone so no blackberry services ) then i turn off signal, then on and straight to 3G...

This is why i thought it's software but after full wipe it doesn't change anything

mmphoneservices · 12-02-2012, 00:33

try using a new sim eg a 3g sim see if this helps

dukeforever · 12-02-2012, 16:46

Not the sim, tried others from different providers doesn't change anything
Anyway, thanks

dukeforever · 12-12-2012, 19:35

Any other clue ? I ordered a antenna and i'll keep you in touch !

That's for the bold 9000, not the 9900
