LG VX-4600
dropped calls
i recently switched over to verizon from sprint with the vx4600. i was very excited to find a relatively inexpensive phone with just about everything i needed. but more importantly, i wanted the much talked about better reception from verizon in my area, nyc.
unfortunately, my calls keep getting dropped - even though i may have 3 or 4 bars! i've rarely had dropped calls with my sprint phone and when it did, it was in questionable areas where it wasn't all that surprising. now, with verizon service, i can only carry a conversation standing right next to my window! i am extremely disappointed to say the least.

😕 Sorry about the dropped calls but you may be in an area that does not support the all digital mode that this phone came in, or you may just have poor reception. If this does not work you may try to re- program your phone by dialing *228. Customer service normally recommends this when problems of this matters arise. It's also good to do *228 when you do alot of traveling.

i live on LI, but i am in NYC all the time and i never have a problem with Verizon service. i am using a different phone than you, the lg 6000, but the only time i have ever had a dropped call was because of the other persons carrier. the only thing that happens to me every once in a while, about once ever week or two, is an echo. everything i say will echo in the earpiece and the other person can't hear it, and it does become very annoying after a few minutes. like i said though, it only happens every so often...

lovely was right though. you should dial *228 send, then option 2 to update your PRL (prefered roaming list) every 30-45 days. if you travel more, at least up date it once a month.
