I am having HUGE problems with this. My phone is great but the ability to talk on the phone (it should be a phone 1st) has been greatly compromised due to what I think is a hardware issue. It is annoying beyond belief to pay over 500.00 for a phone and not be able to hold a conversation in an area where there is a signal. My son standing right next to me with my old g1 has 4 bars and I stand directly next to him and have no signal at all or barely 1 bar! WTH!! I can’t take much more of this I love my phone but I need T-mobile, HTC, Google someone to get this fixed!

Exactly what was happening… after the update, I felt the update seem to equate to as before.
Now it seems its a hardware problem were the position of the antennae is in question.
Of which we would like to see a eventual fix specially we paid good money for it.

LOL Yeah your a moron DAN!
So happy I didn’t get the N1. I still want it though. Hopefully I can wait until the Supersonic comes out.

It looks like not a hardware problem but a problem with your hands ;)
Did you try to hold with your right hand metal things, like fork or spoon? ;)
You are magnetic field guy, as you can see the baseband firmware also change CID (Cell ID) but actually it’s could be only problem with your GSM/3G provider, they didn’t setup a smooth routing between two type of networks that is why you loose signal. You have to try with netmonitor and another phone and do the same thing in the same place, the same thing, like close baseband with your hand. ;)

This is clearly not a T-Mobile issue. I live in the middle east and experience the same issues when holding the phone. Explain that!

Had a G1 with no 3G dropout problems (even though there were many other issues), but the N1 dropped 3G constantly. The OTA fix has improved it by 50% at best. Still dropping out in areas the G1 always worked.

Its the phone stupid.

And I’m the stupid one for buying it…Never again will I buy anything HTC.
