This might not be the place for this, but is there any way on a non-rooted TB to have a signal strength gauge for 3g/4g?

Hello guys,
I've read that whe when I'm at home, it's better to be connected via Wi-Fi instead of 3G (Data Plan) in terms of battery ussage.
Is this true? Wi-fi uses less battery than 3G?
thx
Yes, generally wifi will consume less battery than using data. It also depends on the signal strength. The stronger the signal the better.
Anyone having trouble with signal strength i always have like 3 bars and sometimes only 2 sometimes none..
And it consumes battery as far as i know... the bad signal
It is either on full signal or at no signal never at intermediate state. Why?
My signal strength indicator when i set 3G sim 1 and 2 same
Hi,
We go on vacation each year to the same place and GSM/2g/3g/lte signal is very poor and varying here. With meter I measure signal strength from -80 to -110 dBm at the same spot. It probably varies due to seaside proximity.
What bothers me is the fact, that when phone looses signal, two weirdos occur:
1.) I need to reboot many times to regain access to my operator...same with other family members, and we use different operators. Why does not phone switch from no signal to my operator by itself always?
2.) Maybe related...cell meter app on my phone show quite strong signal of -80 to -90 dBm all the time when no etwork is found, but network operator name is "none". No calls can be made, even 911 calls end with network error. But signal is strong. What's this? Is this some dormant signal, which I detect practically everywhere, when no network is found?
Above symptoms are present on Samsung s7, s10 and on LG g7, so it's not phone or android version guilty.
Explanations welcome.
