iPhone 4 signal issues after 3 days...

If your iPhone 4 begins to have signal issues and begin to act funny approximately three (3) days after you restore your data to it, you need to RESET ALL SETTINGS.

Why? It appears that the settings restored from a backup from your last iPhone, esp if it was a jailbroken iPhone, can really mess up acquisition of signal and bog down the device. Reset Network Settings doesn't necessarily work, however, you can try that first if you'd like. Rumors blame AT&T, which seems to have found a way to create reception issues for iPhones (of all kinds) that are Jailbroken.

SETTINGS > GENERAL > RESET > RESET ALL SETTINGS

Note: You will loose any of the jailbroken tricks such as a custom carrier and battery percentage, as well as any other settings such as contact sorting, email passwords (incoming and SMTP), lock settings, and more.



For those with iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, and iPhone 3GSs, you might find the issues where every 30 seconds or so your service drops out and comes right back. To fix that, you can try this trick too to see if your service is restored.
