Although they are not visible on many of today’s smartphones, these smartphones are still dependent on antennas so your cell phone receives a strong signal. Has your cell phone begun to experience more dropped calls and loss of signal strength? Then it may be time for you to consider cell phone antenna replacement to repair your faulty or broken antenna.
Signs of a Faulty or Broken Cell Phone Antenna
Most new cell phones have antennas that are built into the casing and are difficult to access. However, these antennas are still subject to damage. The antenna is responsible for many of the cell phone’s functions including phone calls and Wi-Fi connection. When the antenna is damaged, your cell phone will not function properly. The phone may:
- Not show a signal
- Fail to connect to Wi-Fi
- Not connect to data services
- Drop calls
- Download slowly
Fortunately, this is a very common problem. Experienced repair technicians can offer cell phone antenna replacement services to help restore your phone’s functions.
How to Troubleshoot Antenna Issues
There are several ways to troubleshoot cell phone antenna issues. That way you can see whether you can fix the problem without hiring a cell phone repair technician.
First of all, you should do is to make sure that the location you are in is not causing your cell phone to have poor reception or dropped calls. You may be too far away from the closest cell phone tower or the building you are in may have equipment that blocks signals from cell phones. Before you decide that there is a problem with the antenna, try to use your phone in several locations to determine if you can receive a signal somewhere else.
Also, check your phone’s battery. Many times a battery that has a low charge will cause problems that are very similar to antenna problems. If this is not causing the problem, you can try to reset your phone to see if that will solve the issue.
Finally, if none of these troubleshooting methods work, you will need to contact a cell phone antenna replacement service that can restore your cell phone. Experienced technicians can diagnose your cell phone and repair it for you quickly.
