This is not a big deal at all. It's only a major issue when it's the iphone.

Hey Tre-Nitty, you seriously need to study electronic terms, icemanx1 didn't say AT&T, he said att which is short for attenuation which is what is happenning.

that IS NOT the "death grip" from the iphone. that is just gripping your phone really tight. any phone will do that.

- the "iphone death grip" is caused by 2 unprotected antenaes bridging a signal through your hand and zapping out the call. you dont have to "grip it to death" to achive this, just merely touch where the 2 antenas devide on the side of the phone. it kills the call.

- any idiot can squeeze a phone and lower the signal. it didnt drop the call. its not an insulation issue like the iphone.. they are not the same. the iphone's issue is one of a kind. the only people that try to prove otherwise are idiots and ibots.
