I've noticed especially that in the spots where I show as having signal (with Sprint), when I miss calls, if I go to the ##DEBUG# screen, my Rx Power will be in the mid -90s, but sometimes my Rx Io/Ec (or whatever it is called...don't have phone on me this second) will be 30 db or higher.

Whatever it is, it is VERY frustrating to completely miss calls in places I supposedly have "good" or even "great" service (according to Sprint).
Do you have bars when this happens? I was actually looking at my phone (scrolling through photos) when it happened once and the phone showed service. How can it show bars of service but not ring? Where is the problem? Also, have you tried a new radio? I would like to know if anyone thinks that could help. thx
