What, you mean the signal can not pass through a human body? I will remember that the next time I use my phone while it sits on my arm, because as you know, that is a common way to hold a phone. This is so stupid that stupid doesn't describe the video. :rolleyes: Oh no! I just tried that with my Razr Maxx and lost my 4G signal. I'm writing Motorola. How dare they! It's a conspiracy. :p

I actually put my phone on my leg all the time when I'm in class and don't want the professor too see.

Just so others don't have to bother wasting their life like i did. This idiot puts the iPhone 5 flat on his arm and grounds the back antenna.

Perhaps this information is useful to people lacking hands.....

Yea agree, that's what I'm thinking! I wouldn't use my iPhone like that :D

I saw someone had it on his armpit. It looks fine as he won't stop talking to who ever is that on the other line.

I saw this video and could not reproduce the results. My signal strength remains at 4 bars the whole time. (Thank God). It must be unique to his phone. He seems a bit unhappy about it too.

Funny. If I encase my phone in lead, it doesn't get a signal. Should I petition Tim Cook for a free case?
