Well, it worked, trouble is i didn't want to have it hanging out of my phone all the time right? But it turns out that the external antenna jack and the internal antenna jack are connected and it's a very sensitive/delicate connection. So if you "turn" the external connection just slightly you pretty much disconnect the internal antenna! And voila no signal at all.

I ended up leaving the external antenna i made inside the case. I have an extended battery so thats the only reason it works. Without that antenna in place (inside the case) i wouldn't be able to use my phone!!!!

So, be careful what you plug in and how you "turn it!!!!"
