    Hi all.

    I'm currently with emobile. Their coverage is brutal in my area, if I had known it was this bad, I wouldn't have went with them, but I'm tied into an 18 month contract now. Thats life.

    Anyway, as part of my efforts to improve reception, I rang emobile customer care, and they told me my phone should be operating off GPRS or 3G (as opposed to whatever its on now, I dont know what that is). So my question is, how do I change this particular setting?

    There doesn't seem to be any option in any of the menus for this. Any ideas or other suggestions?

    Thanks, Newmug

    Thats an example of terrible customer service.

    Is this your phone?

    GPRS is for using data, not voice calls. The 3720 is not a 3G phone so you wont find any settings. I take it that you didnt get the phone from eMobile

    ^^^^^ Thats the one. No I bought it from phonesonline.ie because of its ruggedness. Is there any grain of correctness in what yerone was telling me? Is there anything I can change to improve reception?

    Only thing you can change is the phone or network.

    You could get a phone that is 3g compatible, so will have better chance of having better signal
