Lose signal when connected to wifi

[mhans311]

I have had a problem recently where I will drop down to 1 bar of service when I connect to a wifi network. When I disconnect it will immediately jump back up to 3-4 bars. It happens every single time I connect to wifi. It isn't a big deal unless I am actually making a call, it will cause me to drop the call. Anyone else having this problem? Suggestions? I'm on GB .595

Yup and sometimes it takes forever to my 3G signal to turn on after switching from wifi.

You don't actually drop down to 1 bar, it just looks like you do... it's a bug... it's been around for awhile.

No, I really do drop down. My calls will drop constantly if I'm connected to wifi, then if I turn it off, everything is fine - no dropped calls. Calling from the exact same location.

I've never had that problem and I frequently make calls at work, home, and other locations while connected to wifi and showing 1 bar. Maybe you just need to update your PRL by dialing *228 option 1 and then *228 option 2.

Mine did that on Froyo, but works ok with Gingerbread 588 leak. If you are still running Froyo, hopefully you'll be ok when Verizon pushes out GB.
