Anyone else experiencing signal drops and phone calls cutting in and out? Unlocked on Verizon (all phones have been). While I'm out driving, I notice a lot of times people will tell me I'm breaking up and many times when going to call someone I look at the bars and it's just a no signal icon. I have wifi calling enabled and even at home my calls are spotty and break up. I do have WiFi6E and was wondering if that's possibly causing problems at home when on wifi as that is very short range. Sometimes I'll try and call someone and it ends call as soon as I push the call button. If I restart phone it works fine. I notice when I have the no signal icon while out driving it doesn't find signal until I restart phone. Had amazing signal the first week or so but since it's just gotten worse and worse. Thoughts?
 
I've notice on two separate occasions, while at work where I can sometimes have spotty wifi and/or service, I didn't re-auto connect and had to toggle airplane mode on and back off.
I'm on Spectrum (Verizon towers) unlocked 22 Ultra.
 
I haven't had any issues here in Cleveland, OH with an unlocked S22 Ultra on Verizon.
 
I'm on AT&T and the signal is definitely not better as they advertised it. the signal is still crap and crap areas
 
I find my signal to be better on the Ultra than several other phones I've had recently. I sometimes even get signal in my building at work which I've never gotten on any of my TMo phones.
 
I removed and reinserted the SIM card and it seems to be doing better now. I'm not getting the no signal symbol anymore at least.

I get that occasionally on both my phones. With 4g I never saw that, it would just drop down to 3g or 1x. Verizon was supposed to put new tower about a mile away, but it got shot down when residents claimed it would kill their property value.
 
I am seeing this no signal symbol frequently on my unlocked S22 on T-Mobile and the signal is supposed to be 5GUW in my neighborhood. I will likely be contacting T-Mobile. Have a snow storm here today (NoVA), so dunno when I'll do it. Prefer in person, rather than online. There is a T-Mobile store 5 mins from my house.
 
I do notice 5 bars of 5G doesn't ensure a fast connection, especially upload speed.
