Hi,

All of a sudden my iPhone 3G is not getting service in my dorm room. Now because the walls are cement and thick, I would normally not be surprised, but because I used to always get service (all "bars") on 3G and don't anymore, I'm outright confused! I didn't update the software (I did to 2.2.1 earlier in the week, but no differences in reception) or change anything since that point, nor did I drop it or physically damage it. I've had the phone for just over a month now, and so it will technically be under warranty, but I was wondering if there could be something else causing it? I tried a full-blown reset, a network reset, ect.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Have you tried turning EDGE on by turning 3G off? Also, does it say No Service or just have one tiny bar?

Well that works, so apparently it's an issue with AT&T's 3G network ... great.
