so i was on 4.3.1 jailbroke with the famous signal 1bar problem. it seems i still have the problem with 5.0.1, is this right or shouldn't this have been fixed? i hate only having 1bar and not knowing exactly how good my signal is. what can be done?

Its still the same.
Only fix is to install ultrasnow but you might have issues with not be able to use MMS and your visual voicemail not working.

This often happens after a reboot. The "fix" is to automatically reinstall ultrasn0w after a reboot. This can be done with a little scripting, an example of which can be found here:
http://jailbreakqa.com/questions/32589/no-mms-or-vvm-after-ultrasn0w-update

Keep in mind, should you need to update ultrasn0w to a later version, you will also need to place the new .deb file in the Autoinstall folder.

Wasn't there something about ejecting the SIM card that fixed the MMS and VV issues (albeit it had to be done often)? Does this work in 5.0.1?

Indeed, ejecting sim and reinserting solves those problems, 5.01 with 1.59.00

No problems whatsover.
