I am using the provider O2 in Germany. Over the holidays I observed that I hadn't service in several rural areas in Southern and also Northern Germany. My wife uses the same provider and had service on her Android device all the time. Also others had service, just not me with my new Jolla. It was not possible for me to make outgoing calls, receiving calls or anything else. The signal in these areas I had been to is bad. Mobile internet was usually not working even on any other phone but receiving calls or sending a text message was always possible. I am thinking about switching my provider anyway but is that a hardware or software defect on my Jolla.

By the way, In my all day life I am pretty happy with the signal level of my Jolla. :-)

In my experience, signal strength on Jolla is actually quite good compared to other phones on the same network (I also have O2 Germany). Internet connection drops quite often in areas with poor signal, but talking capability in poor network area does not seem worse than on e.g. Nokia N900 I had before.
