Well, an update to my previous posts.
The factory reset didn't seem to do anything new. Reception was slightly better in some places, but not a significant improvement from before. Keeps dropping calls when I'm at home. I have two bars, but it doesn't seem to matter. I hear the hang up sound, look at my phone and it says no signal, while at the same time displaying the 2 bars of reception.
Is there anything else that could be wrong with my phone? SIM card going bad?
Glad I didn't do the reset yet then! I don't know of anything else!
