There have been reports, literally thousands upon thousands of reports from customer regarding their iPhone 4 signal issues.The issues that everyone is reporting have to do with a total loss of signal and data service on the iPhone 4 while browsing the internet or making a call, and in some cases when the phone is just sitting and not in use.

Everything seems to point to the way you use your iPhone, or more specifically, the way you hold your iPhone.The iPhone 4 singal, or antenna problem.While it sounds absolutely ridiculous for such an amazing device, unfortunately it is true.I use my iPhone 4 more than the average cell phone user, some days spending up to 6 hours on the phone with customers, clients and friends.When the iPhone 4 is held in the most natural way in your hands, there is a complete and total loss of all signal from the antenna and even data is not available. The signal strength goes from full signal right down to just one single bar, or worse, no signal at all with the searching message and a dropped call as your end result.

Apple has been slow to address this issue, stating only that holding it in this way will show a drop in your signal, and that the signal bar issues will be fixed in an upcoming software update, and have to do with the signal strength not actually being correct.I do however find it very hard to believe that this alone is the cause for the dropped calls on the iPhone 4, despite it being the only thing Apple will say.

There is a quick fix out there for this issue, and it has to do with having an iPhone 4 case on your iPhone.With a case on your iPhone 4 you won’t experience any of the dropped calls or antenna issues no matter how you’re holding your phone.It just shows yet again that there is something very wrong with either the design or the materials used to make the iPhone 4 itself.To be honest with you I have always been a very firm believer in protecting any gadget I have, including my iPhone 4 by putting it in a case.  It’s an expensive investment, and spending $10.00 – $20.00 on a stylish case seems like common sense to me.I certainly don’t want scratches or scuffs on my iPhone 4, but that doesn’t take away from the problem I have with this whole signal issue going on with a brand new phone.

Gizmodo states that Apple may in fact be doing some type of a silent or unannounced recall on the iPhone 4 with certain customers.  Replacing their iPhone 4 with a replacement iPhone, and the issue does not seem to be present on most of these iPhone 4′s that customers are receiving.It’s very important that I state that this recall that everyone is talking about is currently just speculation and no more than a rumor.However a number of buyers have said that this issue is just not there on their replacement iPhone 4 units.  While others continue to have a problem, unless of course, they put their iPhone 4 back in an iPhone case again.
