Increase your iPhone Signal Strength. . .
February 17, 08 by Doug. . .with scotch tape!
I have been reading lately that there is a portion of the iPhone community that has poor signal to their iPhone due to the SIM card not being ’seated’ properly. They say if you put a piece of tape(needs to be thin scotch tape) “under/behind” the SIM card(on the tray, not the card), it is just enough pressure to prevent the ’sporadic’ signal drops.
I only have an iPod Touch. . .so I am unaware of these dropped calls, low signal, etc. . .but I hear this issue plagues many iPhone owners.
Have you had any of these issues? If so has this helped your signal strength?

My cousin has had problems like this. I’ll inform him about it.

Doesn’t concern me.

wow, what great informative responses guys, thank you! pfft. Doesn’t concern me? if it doesn’t concern you, why did you take the time to actually post… wow you must have ALOT of free time :) my condolences.
I doubt this would do anything, i dont have scotch tape but i used a sim-shaped piece of paper to see if it would make any difference, none so far…

Won’t work. Sim card conducts electricity and if the
leads aren’t in direct contact them it won’t read it.
