    I had been using a 6230 for a year or so.
    I "upgraded" to a brand new 6230i 2 weeks ago.
    My reception is not as good as with the old phone.

    I frequently get no service inside my house - never had that problem with the 6230.
    Anything I can do to improve my service?
    Is this typical? Thought I was getting a better phone?

    Re: Reception problem with my 6230i

    What carrier are you using it with? If it's at&t, then the phone will not work as well because of lack 850mhz GSM frequency, the 6230 was equipped with 850/1900mhz, the 6230i is 900/1800/1900mhz

    Thanks - Yes ATT.
    I guess that explains everything.
    Now I will need to look for another new phone now

    Anyone need a Brand New (2 weeks ago) 6230i?

    Re: Reception problem with my 6230i

    So I went to the Nokia 6085.
    Does almost everything my 6230 did, except for voice tags.
    And it is a flip - my first flip.

    Reception and quality is great.

    Listed my 6230 on ebay - seems like it will sell, based on the amount of questions I have been getting.
    Thanks
