See how opening a window can double your cell phone signal, and explore 9 other tips and tricks for finding better cell phone reception.
Some quick links to a few of the materials I used:
[✓] weBoost home unit 1500 sq ft: amzn.to/2clkj7f
[✓] weBoost Connect 7500 sq ft: amzn.to/2c9Txji
Learn more about cell phone signal boosters and the science behind them on weBoost's website at: bit.ly/1Nabf1D
In this video you'll see how to;
- Access a secret “Field Testing” screen on your iPhone.
- Learn how to see the ACTUAL strength of your signal. (“Bars” aren't usually accurate.)
- Find the cell tower you're connected to right now, and make a “real life” connection with it.
- Force your phone to latch onto stronger signals nearby.
- Prevent texts, and voicemails, from coming through delayed.
- Double your signal, simply by rolling down a window.
- Find which carrier best covers the area where you live, and whether you should switch.
- Use a “Femtocell” or “Cell-spot Router” to re-direct calls through the internet.
- Use “Wi-Fi Calling” mode to send messages from the sky, and save on international roaming charges.
- Use a “weBoost” signal booster to eliminate dead-zones and dropped calls in your home, office, or car.

Project History & More Info:
FTC Disclaimer: This video was sponsored by my friends at weBoost. (#ad)
Project Inspired By:
weBoost.com. The weBoost staff reached out and invited me to collaborate on a video idea for their new line of weBoost products.
About a month ago, they reached out to see whether I had ever heard about cell phone signal boosting.
It was actually a new concept to me, even though they'd been selling products like this for over a decade, under the name “Wilson Electronics”.
Our house has always had trouble with reception, so I had one of their systems installed so I could test it for myself, and measure the results before making claims on what it could do.
I did a fair amount of research on how cell phone technology works in general, and different ways signals could be enhanced. And since most people don't have any idea how phones work or where the signals come from, I thought it would be appropriate to make a video with tips and tricks that people could try out themselves, to learn and explore the invisible radio world around them.
Originally my thinking was to create a number of different projects that could be done with the weBoost system itself, or projects that related to the concepts of signal boosting.
Among these ideas were;
- Making a mini radio you could use to broadcast your voice on your kitchen radio.
- Building a mini audio amplifier powerful enough to drive a large 8ohm speaker.
- Ripping the weBoost amplifier apart, and seeing how it could re-purposed for something else.
In the end I felt that a “Life Hack” video showing 10 tips and tricks, would be the best.
I created the video to show 10 ways you could find, or create, better signals, but I also tried to design it so you'd be learning more about how the cellular system works, at the same time.
There is a lot of education mixed in with the projects. So in a way it's kind of like a mini training course that'll get you involved with understanding the networks you've always used, but never really been aware of.
I hope you learned something new you can start using. And if not, please watch the video again. There's a really good chance you'll see something you missed the first time around :)

If your getting the speed your paying for or close to it over wifi there's nothing you can do unless you want to pay for higher tier Internet or at least easily. The only other thing would be to get a device that combines the speed of your internet and speed of your phone into one speed. I forgot what they're called but still I doubt that's what you want to do then your using phone data and phone speeds aren't that good. It'd work better if you had two land internet lines you wanted to combine the speed of

If you want the dbm meter to actually stay. go into field testing mode, then hold the power button until the off slide bar pops up. when it pops up let go of the power button and then press and hold the home button for about 10 seconds. The field test should force quit and then the dbm meter will be stuck on the top left.

+Just A I think you need to learn about electromagnetic radiation and realise that all radiation is not deadly. You face a higher risk of illness from radiation from a bunch of bananas than from a cell phone. As to the plane being more dangerous. Our atmosphere shields us from a lot of the Sun's (and other extraterrestrial radiation sources) harmful radiation. When you fly at 40,000 feet there is less atmosphere above you to protect you from the radiation and you receive a larger dose. Every day you sit in a pool of radiation from the sun, radio and TV broadcast, your WiFi, cordless phones, cell phones and more. It's only sources of electromagnetic radiation with very short wavelengths (

The secret "Field Test" will not work on iPhones on IOS 9 because of the new feature which blocks the real strength of your signal. Instead of showing your real strength, it will show "Back to Phone" on the left top corner.

Hello, Mr. Thompson. I think this is one of your best videos ever. I live in Taiwan, near the ocean, but I also live next to a phone company building called a "central office" (the big building kind with no windows, etc.) and there was a base station on the roof. A few years ago, some idiots put up signs saying that the phone company was bad and humans are laboratory rats, etc. I think it's back now, but "hidden". I got -95db in the house! I pass that building many times per day, but didn't know that they had rebuilt the base station in a less-obvious setup. I wish I had known this sooner. I totally understand the effort and research you put into this video. A million thanks! Ray, from Taiwan.

If you want it to actually stay. go into field testing mode, then hold the power button until the off slide bar pops up. when it pops up let go of the power button and then press and hold the home button for about 10 seconds. The field test should force quit and then the dbm meter will be stuck on the top left.
