My husband and I both have the same phones, the Droid R2D2. For some reason, he always seems to have the maximum signal strength and I'm lucky to have 2 bars. Even when we are sitting next to each other. I've dialed the *228 and reprogrammed the phone several times and it doesn't help. My daughter has an Ipod and she and I will bring up the same apps and her ipod is much faster. She's looking at a webpage while I'm still waiting for it to load. Is there something wrong with my phone?
