It really happens, I'm in a very bad area of signal, and to make a call I've to connect the blutooth headset. When I do it the signal is ok, when I touch it it goes very bad.
As redes em Portugal no interior são mesmo para esquecer...
I am having problems with my Desire S, sometimes, randomly in some calls I lose signal. The phone I had before (Nokia N73) never had this issues... For a >400 dollars phone the quality should be better!
Thats not fake i have the same problem with my desire i have one or no bars constantly it wont send txts alot and drops calls and the sound quality sucks and ive only had my desire for 2 in a half months and never had signal problems with any of my previous phones so i know its not the carry.
Not fake, mine does this, but worse, it goes from one bar, to no signal to roaming and back. This phone is amazing and I love it, but it's going back today, I called customer services they mentioned this is a known issue, I'm gutted!
The only other thing that lets me down on this phone is the loudspeaker and call speaker, bar that it's perfect!
@kalelesl It doesn't take a genius to understand this depends heavily on the signal strength of your location.
It was just to prove that, *depending* on where you are, all cell phones exhibit the same behavior.
I too can make it "not show", by moving into a differente place with more strength; but in there, the signal is just barely enough to make a phone call - and with very low quality...
In fact, the only phone that is actually usable in there, is the iPhone 4.
@solidox113 Definitely not fake; as I clearly said, this is only noticable in an already "weak spot" area - just like what happens in many other phones. The Desire happened to be the one I had lying around at the moment.
Interestingly enough, this does not happen on my Desire. Furthermore, if I check the signal strength numerically, using "About phone -> Network", it also doesn't change... This is using the UMTS network.
i have the incredible and my phone never drops calls but i always loose signal and miss calls that dont come through

Fake! You must be in the desert to get this signal. Something is wrong with the phone, maybe.

@kimkom4 Nothing wrong with the phone - as I clearly said: this happens to *all* the phones in this particular spot (very bad reception area.)

Well, seems like Apple had to resort to the same tactic, showing this effect on several other devices. on their Smartphone antenna performance page

@Geshpenst If it follows the HTC Droid Eris location, it's on top.

@luggage12345 It's RF, of course it will vary depending on... basically everything.
