signal boosters and stubby antennas

i live in a fringe area and dont get good service at my house i want to get a new housing and a new antenna to make the hpone look good but i want decent service... so i wanna know if the stubby antennas kill your reception bad (im looking at a 3/4" metal one) and if those internal signal boosters you put behind your battery boost it much? if so how much do they affect it? any help would be greatly appreciated

signal booster wise, r you talking about the signal booster sticker? if so, it's worthless, it looks like metallic stuff but in reality it's a sticker.


Cell Phone Forum:

so the boosters are absolutely worthless? has anyone had them work for them? and as far as the antenna, will it be any worse than the stock stubby? its about the same size except its all metal

Along this same thread... Do the retractable antennas boost reception any?

in some places ill have it down alla the way and get no signal then put it up and get like 3 bars and in others there will be no difference i dunno whats up with that... but i wanna get a normal one cuz they are ugly

I use signal boosters, and they are worked very good for me, I don't have any problems.
