i get service everywhere but my house and i do have some service in some places, and this is where i do get the reception issue. but i got my bumper today and i tried it out, i still do get the problem in my house but not to the point of no bars i get 2 bars now. And everywhere else i did have the problem, but now there is no problem the most it will go down is 1 bar. Basically if u have good service u wont have to problem but it not u will have it.
