Hi all, I got my Touch Diamond on Friday on Orange, and I've been having nothing but problems with it so it's probably going back this week. More than half of my calls are dropping and/or the other person cannot hear me, 9/10 times I try to dial a number I get no ringing tone and then the connection drops completely and I have to restart the entire phone, and also the reception is absolutely terrible compared to my K800i on O2. I put the Orange sim in my K800i and the reception is still absolutely awful.
I suspect a lot of these problems are caused by the fact I've chosen Orange (Big mistake I'm now thinking). It seems the coverage in my area "varies heavily" (According to an Orange Customer Service guy), so I'm out of luck I guess. The problem is I absolutely love the handset, so I'm thinking of returning this one for a refund since I should still be in my cool-off period, and replacing it with the o2 variant.
I'd like to know if anyone has the XDA Ignito on o2 and what their experiences have been with it? The o2 coverage in my area is absolutely fantastic on my K800i, but I'm wondering if some of the issue I'm having are down to the handset itself. I can live with my reception being so-so (The phone at 2 bars still seems to work fine), however what I cannot deal with is complete, random loss of signal even when at (seemingly) 4 bars signal strength and having to restart just so I can hear people during calls.
