    Default Bold 9900 Dropped Calls

    I've been having a tonne of dropped calls lately on my Rogers Bold 9900 on OS 7.1 (was like that when i was on stock OS as well) Does anyone else have this issue? I know i have my wifi always on (which is a wonky / slow wifi connection since my isp is crap), im not sure if that has any effect (maybe im on UMA and i dont know?). For the times im not on the phone i typically have H+ network on Rogers. Anyone else have similar issues?

    I haven't ever had a drop call yet with my Bold 9900 on Rogers.

    I also don't have my wifi on usually so not sure if that makes a difference. Might be the cellphone tower? No idea, call Rogers I guess.

    No wonder you were dropping calls, you basically had the backup off, 2G is far more spread then 3G and it reaches further into buildings.

    I am having the same problem with 7.0 and 7.1 upgrade, set too 2g&3gh, wi-fi on or off. Rogers network. The call ends and says call failed on screen and you get a beeping tone for a few seconds.
