iPhone 4S with no service!!!

A relationship with no trust is like an iPhone with no service. All you can do is play games.

Just a little humor hope it made you laugh, LOL!

Well just like a relationship with games I kick to the curb my 4S is about to suffer the same fate. Reception in low signal areas is horrible compared to my 4.

I have great signal on my iphone 4S

As did I on my 4. Issue is low signal areas my 4S goes into No Service where as the 4 did not. And the 4S for some reason takes a lot longer to require or even acquire a signal upon start up then my 4 ever did.

Hard reset take to apple store

Already did all that is possible restore as new etc. Took it in on Friday they exchanged it. But new one same issue. So it's either another 4S problem phone or the 4 just had an antenna that worked better with low signals.

Might be the network

Nope not network been with my sister every time who has the 4 and she'll have a signal while the POS 4S has "No Service"

Use your old phone see what happens

Ask AT&T for a free microcell

First I sold my old phone. And I already know it didn't have theses lost signal issues I had it for over a year.

Second these issues are not at home so a microcell isn't going to help me. I'm pointing out that the 4S in my real world usage can't hold a low signal where as the 4 can. Read the posts

Same problem for me. I leave home or work, after several hours on WiFi data signal, only to be unable to acquire a 3G signal on my new (unlocked) 4S. The signal icon displays three or more bars, but none of my streaming media will work. This NEVER happened on my old 3GS.

So, I can reboot and usually obtain a 3G signal, but this is frustrating. sounds like I'm not the only 4S user with this issue.
