burnout8488 Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Is there a jailbreak tweak that allows me to see the signal strength of 1x, 3G, and LTE in the upper deck? Similar to Android phones with SignalCheck installed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar to Android phones with SignalCheck installed... yes download signal2... But that won't put it in that status bar it will just lay it all out on the table for u Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnout8488 Posted January 24, 2014 Author Share Posted January 24, 2014 Already have it, just wishing a tweak existed to pretty much throw it all up next to the clock :-( Probably not a whole lot of iOS developers interested in this, unfortunately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COZisBack Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I believe it's just an edit to an option, forgive because I don't know much more than that.

burnout8488 Posted January 27, 2014 Author Share Posted January 27, 2014 I think a Nexus 5 is in the cards for me soon. Can't abandon Apple entirely, but honestly this site makes me want to run Android just for the LTE fun that can be had. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't abandon Apple entirely, but honestly this site makes me want to run Android just for the LTE fun that can be had. I have seen very few Android phones other than Samsung that easily show you the LTE band UARFCN that is in use. I know it's easy to find on the Galaxy line of devices, but good luck with any other brand, it's a total crapshoot. Some brands have field test/engineering mode, some don't. And the ones that do, don't show UARFCN. NONE of the apps I've seen in the Play Store show you the LTE band. But more power to ya if the Nexus shows you the UARFCN. What use is it if it only shows you the Cell ID and dBm? I want to know the exact UARFCN that is in use so I can tell which LTE frequency my phone is camping on. That is a critical piece of information when trying to determine connection problems, and every model of iPhone across the board is guaranteed to give you the UARFCN in the field test.

This is the only benefit to an iPhone for how I use my device. It sometimes makes me envious. And then I remember an iPhone doesn't meet my 3,217 other needs as a wireless nerd. But that is a great feature. I also like how iOS shows the carrier width of the channel connected to. Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WiWavelength Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I have seen very few Android phones other than Samsung that easily show you the LTE band UARFCN... Just FYI, UARFCN is a W-CDMA thing. EARFCN is for LTE. Yes, the distinction is basically semantic, but 3GPP follows a lot of conventions that I dislike.

cyclone Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 I have my phone jailbroken and when I go in Cydia to get Signal 2, it keeps telling me "This product is not supported on your iOS version.". Can Someone Help me figure out how others are able to get this, but I am not? I have an iphone 5s running 7.0.4 (11B554a) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnout8488 Posted February 3, 2014 Author Share Posted February 3, 2014 I think some of us got it before the Cydia store was updated for iOS 7. It does run fine for me though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Along with that warning, it also does not let him hit "Install", it is only going to give him a "Recheck" button where the install button would normally be. -Anthony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
