What is up with the signal strength on this phone?

F5121

Compared to my previous phone (iPhone 6 Plus), the signal strength is just horrible. I downloaded settings and everything. Does this phone have just a week antenna or something? I have AT&T.

My iPhone got wayyy better signal strength.

Change signal strength color dual sim

Hi,
i spend hours and hours to find a solution for my problem but i´ve found nothing about this.

I want to change the color of the signal in the status bar for my two sim-cards (lollipop 5.0).

There are no PNGs in the systemUI so i thought it musst be changed in the xml-files.

I´ve found some xml named stat_sys_signal_*_fully_sim1_leui.xml / stat_sys_signal_*_fully_sim2_leui.xml. * count 0 till 4

In this xml it´s possible to set the color via #******** and i set it to hex-blue and red. But it does not works.

For example the original code of "stat_sys_signal_1_fully_sim1_leui.xml"

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<vector android:height="14.0dip" android:width="13.0dip" android:viewportWidth="52.0" android:viewportHeight="56.0"
xmlns:android="http ://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<group>
<path android:fillColor="#ffffffff" android: pathData="M 3,32h7v16h -7z" />
<path android:fillColor="#ffffffff" android: pathData="M 17,24h7v24h -7z" android:fillAlpha="0.4" />
<path android:fillColor="#ffffffff" android: pathData="M 45,8h7v28h -7z" android:fillAlpha="0.4" />
<path android:fillColor="#ffffffff" android: pathData="M 31,16h7v32h -7z" android:fillAlpha="0.4" />
<path android:fillColor="#ffffffff" android: pathData="M 50,38L 48,38 45,40 45,42 47,42 47,46 45,46 45,48 52,48 52,46 50,46 " />
</group>
</vector>

I´ve set all #ffffffff to #ff00afff but the colour aufter flashing is still white. :(

The systemUI is correct de- and recompiled!

Anybody a solution???

PS: Sorry for my english! :D

How can I connect wifi hotspot to wds router to increase signal strength

Hi
I want to know how I can connect my wifi hotspot from mobile to wds router to increase signal strength so I can get signal in my whole house. I only rely on mobile hotspot for Internet??

Signal strength, LTE, 4G, getting signal, etc

Hi everyone,

Smartphone reviews are more and more complete as the competition between review websites increase but there is always a test kind of missing: signal reception.
Indeed it's hard to find data about it over the net. Some phone makers are happy to communicate about some technology they develop, and some just don't.
Nowadays it seems that all that matter is photo quality, design, autonomy and the screen. At long as you got a "bar" (which doesn't mean anything as we know) consumer seems to be happy... lol.

I found some comparisons that AndroidAuthority made, but that's about it (I can't post outside links yet...):
- Xperia Z5, LG G4, Galaxy Note 5, iPhone 6S, Moto X Style ( /best-lte-xperia-z5-x-style-note-5-iphone-6s-lg-g4-648755/ )
- Galaxy S6, LG G4, Huawei P8 ( /best-4g-galaxy-s6-v-huawei-p8-v-lg-g4-612827/ )
Over here they look at signal strength (near -60dBm being perfect, and near -110dBm being call failure), network switching rate, drapped calls, etc, which give you some clues.

The point is to find with what phone you really have a change to get a nice signal (just to receive a call or to get stable data coming through), when some will just drop. Apparently Huawei got a little something better with their Signal + technology, when Apple seems to do good too, but the "king" Samsung seems to be quite crappy about it, even if reviews website do not reflect it.

What do you think? Any trouble with your Samsung? Huawei owners do you really see a difference? (and not just about "bars" at home).
I guess it should be a good selling argument stating that your phone is having a better signal than the others (if you are traveling a lot, when hiking, during highway drive, using less battery if your antenna is less stressed, etc).

X performance vs. Xperia X signal strength antenna

I just received the Xperia X (usa version). When I go into a specific building that has bad reception my Xperia Z5 always was able to work fine and get internet. The Xperia X won't receive calls and the internet just hangs. Does the X Performance have a better signal strength and antenna or is this just an anomaly of the Xperia X?
