the only thing that really works in an area where you don't get good signal let's say in your house is zBoost YX510-PCS-CEL – works with all phones simultaneously at both frequencies CEL - 800MHz and PCS -1900MHz.
I live in an area that i do no get good signal reception i get either 1 bar or nothing at times.
I installed it as per the instructions and i get perfect full signal coverage up to 2,500sq ft and i have never dropped a call since i have installed it.
i am very happy with it and recommend it to everyone on this forum. It works perfectly with my iphone and my girlfriends iphone. and in the building where we live we never got signal even with that i-tena at all which does no work. dont buy it at all it is a waste of money.
Today I had a conversation with ebay customer services with regards to this product and listing.
We have found a number of issues with the listing.
1. It states :
"THIS LISTING IS for a Signal Booster compatible with the Apple iphone 3G not for an iphone 3G cell phone"
Can anyone explain this?
Anyway, ebay did not like this statement as it is too ambiguous and total contradiction unless we are missing some information??.
2. Bidders.
Ebay is looking into the possibility that bidding is rigged for this listing. Too many new accounts bidding for the item and price is hiked beyond its RRP.
3. Validity of the product
Apple spokesperson said, "if a piece of metal would increase the range of the iphone, dont you think we would have done it our selves?"
4. Validity of the video.
The video looks very convincing, however it is very easy to manipulate signal strength for a phone.
Here is a video from a buyer who proves item does NOT work!
5. Most importantly, users are unaware that you can purchase this product online at around Ł24, however you have to be crazy to do so!
6. Ebay is investigating this and previous i-tena listings.

It always varies, there might be a faulty chip in one of them though.
OH shoot thats your video.I didnt know you were a MMI member .Iv seen this video a while back when i was deciding if i should get this "peace of art " .Thanks , you helped me back then .
actually i bought it straight from the manufacture. just go to "Zagg.com" and get it there. its about 24 bux. the back is one full piece and the front is a separate piece and there are smaller pieces that go around the edges the cover up the chrome. well worth it.
The Following User Says Thank You to Iman07 For This Useful Post:
There is and it's free.
Poke your speaker hole with a needle and you will get at least a 30%-60% volume boost.
As far as those sticker antennas work...well they sadly don't even though the idea behind it is quite cute.
what on earth are you freaking talking about, what retard would disfigure an expensive and cool thing like a iphone if you really are a jailbreaking fan irregardless if your a noob or a pro you would not say that
now with that saying, i saw on youtube you can boost the volume with an app on cydia....
once again wtf ???!! poke the speaker hole with a needle??? its there for a reason i.e to protect your speakers you idiot

Hey Iman07 where did you buy your invisible shield?
Yours looks like a whole 1 piece, I've never seen any like that.
if you live in america then your basement is underground, at least according to american tv shows, if thats the case i'm not surprised your signal is so weak
plus whats with the confusing responses, it works, it don't work
which one is it? i saw other vids on youtube that says it works and the stick looks smaller and i've seen it used on 3g too
