Best cell service
42,921 CR readers speak

Tired of dropped calls, “service not available” messages, busy signals, and kkkrrrrrcchhhhhh! static in your ear? Then listen up. Our exclusive survey can show you where to get significantly better cell service.


In our fifth annual survey of cell-phone users, Verizon came out at or near the top in the 20 metropolitan areas we surveyed, as it has in years past. But Alltel, a relatively small carrier that primarily serves the midsection of the country, is emerging as a formidable challenger. Another provider, T-Mobile, is also giving Verizon a run for its (and your) money. In other words, consumers now have more than one decent choice in many places, a positive sign in an industry whose noto...

Does Cingular not ensure this fphone?

I've said this before, and I'll say it again.I HATE NBI accounts. Why does cingular think it is a great idea to not let us help customers that need dyer help. Why is it that when I call a department that is supposed to be able to help me help the customer with the NBI account they dont' know how to do it and transfer you to a department that also doesn't know how to do it and you end up in an endless loop of transfers. Then it makes me look bad, the company look bad. These are the customers that leave to go to other companies. I know they make the argument that companies don't want to let their employees make changes, but most of the ones I deal with are small local companies with 1-5 phones. Why on earth wouldn't cingular allow a transfer o...

WASHINGTON - A huge study from Denmark offers the latest reassurance that cell phones don’t trigger cancer.

Scientists tracked 420,000 Danish cell phone users, including 52,000 who had gabbed on the gadgets for 10 years or more, and some who started using them 21 years ago.

They matched phone records to the famed Danish Cancer Registry that records every citizen who gets the disease — and reported Tuesday that cell-phone callers are no more likely than anyone else to suffer a range of cancer types.

The study, published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, is the largest yet to find no bad news about the safety of cell phones and th...

I just got the 8525 and I haven't had any problems yet.

I was wondering what the difference was between the tytn and this version? I know there is a video camera and I am not worried about that. Plus the tytn would be unlocked.

I was looking at also maybe switching for the Blackjack or maybe the Trea 750 when it comes out. Out of all the phones which is the best? As far as usuability, adding software and such.

Also anyone know any good sites for free software or themes for the 8525.

Thanks in advance.

Is this a good phone? If not, what problems does it have?

This is the second LG CU500 I've had in aprox. 2 months...both with the same problem.

For the most part, it seems that if I haven't used the phone in awhile, say a few hours (but it's still on), the phone seems to go into a kind of 'stand-by' mode: it won't ring when people call me, won't deliver text messages, and won't say that I have any voice mails. If I happen to pick up the phone during this time to make a call, it tries, and always says "call ended" or, in the case of text messaging, "connection failed" (or something like that). In order to get it working again, I have to turn the phone off and back on, sometimes several times in a row. Then, when I make my first call, the phone (or the network?) sends me all the missed text me...

I have achieved download speeds of 1875 kbps on the new Cingular/Sierra Wireless AirCard 875. I live in Detroit. What is everyone else seeing?

When I call my friend who has edge wireless(its a divison of cingular wirless who resides in Northern california) we can talk for a few mins and then I get a bussy signal then I hear dead air and the call is basically dropped. I want to know whats the deal because it only happens when I call her and no one else.

i'm planning to get an unlocked K790a to use with Cingular. i'm currently with Sprint... will Cingular be able to port my number to an unlocked phone?

i have a 6233 unlocked and i'm on the US. seems like it's damn near impossible to get it..

please help

Last year around this time, Cingular had some pretty good rate plans for the holidays. If I remember correctly, I think it was $50/month for 550 minutes and you could add a line.

Are there any unpublished rates out there right now?

Thanks in adavance!

Can anyone give me feedback on which carrier is better in Minneapolis/St. Paul area?

I don't have cingular but the few of my friends that have them I have trouble getting them. I call them get a fast ringing tone then after about 5 it goes to a busy signal. No wonder they have the fewest dropped calls you can't receive them to have them droped!

can this device be usb/ethernet connected to becom apat of the ones wired network. there is a cable to do it and there is software called telnet. but will it sync with this device and work?

I noticed recently that T-Mobile as released a My Five product to counter Alltel's My Circle.

Has anyone heard if Cingular is going to do anything similar?

When I first started with AT&T Wireless (2001), customers on a shared/family plan had the opportunity to designate their home number and a few others as "family" numbers.

I know that by working in customer care, I should know of any rumblings, but believe it or not, customer care is often the last ones to know about new products and promos. 🙄

Sony Ericsson W950i

RIM are seeding pearls to my store and I got one. It is great, typical blackberry functionality with a few more media-esque features. But...


...it is almost TOO small. I didnt realize how small they were gonna be. I have just seen pictures of it I didnt know they were going to be that tiny.

Is there any reason why anyone hasn't come up with a decent home docking system for cell phones?
Eliminate your land line carrier. Come home and "dock" your cellphone to your home wiring.
Make or receive calls from your existing house phones using your cell minutes.
Bluetooth technology should make this easy.

BTW: If you have a Wi-Fi cellphone, is there a way to make free calls with your cellphone in a free wi-fi environment?
