This is going to make AT&T look even worse. Maybe apple knew this algorithm was in place all along and now they are telling AT&T that they can't play games any

Apple is now placing the blame on AT&T by saying that the problem is actually low bars (i.e. the network).
Brilliant way to shift the blame.
- ttol 16y agoApple put the algorithm in place via OS 2.1 update back in '08. http://www.newsoxy.com/technology/apple-iphone/article11156.html http://www.newsoxy.com/technology/apple-iphone/article11156.... If you don't remember, back then every blogger was saying things like "my signal has improved drastically with this update!!11!!1one". This is what the graphical representation of that update was: http://fscked.co.uk/post/754590440/this-infographic-hopefully-shows-that-im-not http://fscked.co.uk/post/754590440/this-infographic-hopefull... As you can see, over 50% = 5 bars. AT&T's recommendation = more accuracy and less reality distortion. Next update, you should see OS 2.1's 3g signal update reversed to what it used to be.
- aliston 16y agoWhy is a -50dBm S/N ratio considered a "perfect signal"? Edit: dBm as a unit for SNR doesn't make sense, which is why I was confused. The Y axis is overall signal strength, not S/N ratio.
