4.2.10 Weird Wifi Trouble

Hi folks,

I recently purchased an Verizon iphone with 4.2.10 already on it, so as far as JBing all I could do is the tethered. So I did, but now I have this strange problem with my wifi- all of the networks it sees are recognized as about 50% of the strength they actually are. I've tried "Fix Wifi" from cydia.pushfix.info, as well as Push Fix 1.0 from Macosmovil repository.

BTW this problem also initially came with bluetooth and GPS issues, but those went away (mostly) after I did Reset Network Setting under Settings / General.

I've rejailbroken it several times, and sometimes this problem is latent by a few days. But it eventually always comes back and I get this half-strength wifi. Bluetooth is also touchy- it seems like whenever I type, run any kind of memory-intensive app in the foreground, or move the unit itself around enough to activate the accelerometers, bluetooth audio skips. It stops skipping if I set the iPhone down, however. Bluetooth range is also diminished by about 50%. I think you get the picture...

Any advice would be greatly appreciated... Anyone else (who's unfortunate enough to be stuck with VZW 4.2.10) having similar issues?
