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
Hello everybody,
I'm observing an odd behaviour by my phone concerning the reception bars on the status bar.
Most of time I only have 1-2 bars but when I'm going to the SIM info part of settings it most of the time switches to more bars.
When checking the dBm and asu values one and the same value gives me different bars.
Right now I have 106 dBm and 34 asu with 1, 2 or 4 bars randomly jumping up and down every few minutes even though it's always the same value.
Can somebody explain this odd behaviour and provide a fix?
Kind regards
Helpme im use some nos. But firstime so signal not stable. Signal in status bar full but internet/data not good.
The LTE signal bars don't scale correctly. A small variation in signal makes a huge change in the bars which creates an illusion of fluctuating signal. Nothing to worry.
The problem I got is that the wifi signal suddenly get weaker, for example, I stand in the same distant to my AP, before I can have full 4 signal bars, but suddenly I can barely got 2 signal bar, usually down to 1 signal bar.
What can I do:crying:
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.
