Default Anyone ditch their 9650 & go back to the 9630 yet?

Please Login to Remove!

The fluctuating signal strength is killing me. I'm on my 3rd 9650, and they've all sucked equally. I've dropped a ton of calls, and had a bunch of garbled ones. This has never been an issue in the areas I travel in. I just picked up my 9630, but am going to hate going back to a trackball. Anyone find a hybrid with better CDMA code or is it a hardware issue?

That would be because the 9700 on t-mobile US has UMA.
The ability to make calls using wi-fi.
It doesnt suprise me, turning wi-fi off stopped that users problems.

However the 9650 doesn't have UMA. So is unlikely to help the OP here.

Makes sense. I need to catch up with the new technology.

Will remove my post to avoid confusion.

Thx.

I am in the no group. Wifi is a great thing.
