Guys could someone help me.
If you have g2 and g3 at the same time with 1 carrier.
Could you help me compare the data signal strength. between the who has the higher signal strength.
In low signal areas for example who can get more stable signal or inside a room.
Currently i have the lg g3, upgraded from g2.
I've noticed that my g3 is having a hard time getting 4g signal at our house which i didn't experienced on my g2.
Phone with best Data signal strength is really important to me.
Need help please.

Does anyone have suggestions for a working mobile signal booster setup?They all seem a little pricey.I spend alot of time on the road and need to improve signal strength for both phone and data.Am on ATT mainly in southeast.
Any help would be appreciated.

please advice which is the better one, :good: going to buy one soon tnx
LTE of course
Aside from the modem that allows a faster data connection (download/upload) on the LTE they are exactly the same device!

LTE gives you faster performance on the data side.

but is that true LTE drains battery faster especially when signal is not good?? tnx

None is better. Only change speed on data and yet not everywhere. So C6802 is better if you don't have Lte and C6806/6833 are better if you have 4G. Lte drain more battery when using it, only on Internet as voice calls do not use it. Having more drain on my C6802 with poor signal, this is basic to all type of mobile network not especially for 4G.

That's not the case look on new iPhone 5s 4g tilktime is longer than 3g
Apple fans are hilarious! Swallowing everything without thought.

Sure, because you don't call on 4G or 3G. Voice call are still using 2G GSM or cdma2000. So how can the talktime be longer?

so basically, without good signal LTE will only drain more power and still be slow. is that correct? tnx

With a poor 4G signal it'll simply switch to 3G/H+ and always try to look for a good 4G. Same thing happen if H+/3G signal poor it drop and try to find it back. Only difference is that with a 4G phone it stop looking for faster network only when on 4G. After with a simple 4G/3G switch you will be able to enjoy full 4G speed when browsing Internet and can turn it off to limit battery drain when not browsing or when in a non or poor 4G area.
I do not have a Lte version only because shop in Vietnam advertise having the C6833 but don't have it and don't know when will. So I was impatient and bough the C6802 (my old phone died 1 month before).

thanks for all the info. :good:
Got a question I flashed the latest carbon rom and I am getting less then normal 4g signal strength anything I can do to get better signal. What if I flash a new radio? And if so what radio? I heard that custom rooms use lte4g13 and stock used lte14 is that true?
Thanks Amy help would be grateful.

The radio more depends on the towers in your area and yes the ril. Ive noted on most custom ports the signal strength is usually weaker than stock. But overall this is a problem with Sammy antennae. Most other companies get way better signal than Samsung.

Hey guys, torn between these 2 phones. Triband maybe the determinh factor but considering how slow sprints 4g rollout is taking, it might be a non factor for the time being. How is the signal strength on the G2? My galaxy s3 signal is poor and my buddies nexus 4 has poor reception. How is the reception for you guys?

Between the S3 and the G2. I seem to have better signal and better transitions. VZW

I think Samsung is notorious for weak antennas. My GNex struggled at my desk in my office but the G2 fairs well. A co-worker with the Note 2 has poor signal while the woman next to him with an iPhone is fine.

G2 has better reception than my S3, Note 2 and S4 had. G2 doesn't have the lag and stutter that those phones had. G2 is the winner. :thumbup:

I agree with this one, Im on Verizon and Ive had so many OTA updates on Samsung devices and every time its at least a radio update. They have gotten better about this over the years but thats not saying much. I still see them hop in and out of coverage and that really takes a toll on battery. The G2 stays on 4G all the time when im not using wifi and it has no problems, its always picking up 4G especially indoors the signal stays strong.
Im sure triband is an attributing factor here too as well
I just moved and have extremely poor reception at my home. The vzn engineers actually drove the street and proved it t be a dead zone. Network extender works poorly and i rely on my phone for business. Verizon will let me out of my contract w/o etf because of the poor service. Have spent hours on pbone with tech support. Apparently at&t gets better reception here. Anyone have any thoughts about their speed/service in north dallas? I hate changing but this is horrible.

Fwiw i switched to at&t, got an m8 while i was at it and put sbreens nV rom rls2 on it. Stellar performance.
Very surprised how giod reception is. Thx s4 community, appreciate all the advice and camaraderie.
