It may just have been timing, but recently I've been reading about connectivity issues that I and others have been having. You could always try the phone for a day or two without the case just to make sure.

I just have the Otterbox Impact which is all soft material and notice no difference. I had a seidio case that had a hard plastic outer shell on my 4G and it did lower signal strength by a bar or so.

Another thought, I don't know where the antennas are located on the 3D but it could also be caused by holding your hand over the 4G antenna.
