DIY Cell Phone Signal booster Antenna in 4 Minutes!

[@davidhurlbert4684]

Today is Tuesday April 4th, 2023. The Time here in Southern New Mexico USA is 12:33 noon. I watched this mans video about 4 days ago, and my first thought was that my android phone would detect the connection as a audio device and there would be no sound. So i didn't fabricate one until just now because my friend said he thinks it would work and that he too wasn't sure about the sound being functional during connection. Well folks it works, this horrible cricket dream 5g cellphone now gets 4 bars out here in the valley when i could barely get one!! 😊🙏🤗

[@dennismarsh7190]

Greetings from Hobbs, NM. I can attest that the signal here sucks.

[@heavenlyvibes7102]

The valley 😮 wow 🤯

[@jemussi7842]

honestly, that will work for the radio, but it won't effect the networks at all

[@bobbyjorgensen8343]

Pure bs. Metal not resembling exact patterns and shapes for given frequencies only bounce around signals already existing in the area. It’s does not attract them. At all (for example for lte it’s a series of 6-7 small, repeating, exact matching loops (like a spiral slide) and then a series of fewer spirals on the other side, that way the signal knows which direction to travel or which end to enter and leave from. Back in the day I made a homemade 4G antenna using a pattern I found online with tin foil, copper cable from a stripped coax cable and a connector block. You shaped a thick copper hanger (iron if you need to but not as effective) into a diamond type shape like a panel antenna, then connect your thinner coax cable to one end of the connect block, both ends of your panel antennas you just made to the opposite ends of the connector blocks and then a small thin strip of foil from bridging from each connector block slots with the panel antennas in it (essentially “closing the loop” on your panel). Once you have your “cable” connected to the block, you add those spirals I was talking about on each on. Then make a second panel antennas and use another connector block for you other end. You should have to panel antennas, both connected via standard connector blocks, connected by your “cable” in between with the spirals. Hang the antenna end with more Spirals outside as high as your can with the best signal you can find. Then run the second antennas somewhere indoors facing the direction you need coverage. This was 5 years ago and things have changed but I did this in a rural cabin with 0-1 bar of service with ANY carrier. If you were lucky you got 1 mbps. And we only had capped (10gb a month) of 5mb/s internet service (satellite was all we could get) Using this and pointing the outdoor antennas I. The vernal direction fo the nearest tower (couldn’t see it but I had a wide open valley before I hit lots of large hills(small mountains) that’s hid it. I was able to get 2 bars after that. Sometimes 3. And like 15 mbps. Still would t work for lte. That’s totally different and uses mu Mimo. Last tip, if you already have antennas (real ones, ideally whip antennas) connected to say a router or gateway, you can use a parabolic shape (not a bowl, that’s not parabolic. Close but not enough) and cover it totally in foil and set that “behind” the antennas. This will help bounce and focus your antennas radiation pattern aka give you a few extra db. Essentially it makes a Omni direction low db antenna into a slightly more directional, marginally higher db antenna. I do this with a signal booster I got from T-Mobile (Cel fi duo+). I sent the window unit in the window and stuck my parabolic shield directly behind on point the center of the parabola in the exact direction. I want to focus at (in my case I’m in the first floor of an apartment complex, inside the courtyard, surrounded by four story buildings.... right outside the complex I can get 500 mbps 5G speeds... inside the apartment courtyard, 100 mbps. Inside my house... 5 mbps. So the courtyard kills the signal. I needed it to get up over the building somehow but a high gain directional antennas would be overkill as it would shoot everything way too high and essentially into Space, wasting everything. This worked. Not perfectly but I can get 50 mbps now in my apt. You can also create a similar type of deal online. I think it’s called a diy free waveform antennas booster shield or something like that. You print out the pattern on a piece of paper, paste the paper on a thin cardboard cutout or similar (needs to flex easily without bending) and covering it in foil and super glue it all shut. No open space. Foil must cover EVERyTHING. It includes cut outs I. The pattern and a way to pull each end of the cutout together slightly, held together with a pencil or pen through the cutouts, to make a parabola shape. Then you cut out two more slits and then slide the reflector onto your whip antennas on your router/gateway half way down. This is good In situations like my folks home. They got crap coverage from their router. Issue was in was all the way in the basement in a rather large home tucked away in a corner cuz that was the only Place with an already built hookup for cable internet apparently. Just too much concrete and wood to bounce around. I put that reflector made out of cardboard on their router whip antennas and aimed it directly at the door heading towards the rest of the building (don’t put it right at the door. You want a ramp or runway for the signal to travel some before it hits materials/objects blocking signal path and the signal spreads as it travels and can more easily maneuver around obstacles. Overall this fixed my Parents wifi issues completely. They went from one bar wifi signal and sometimes nothing... to a solid 3-4 bars. Again, this isn’t creating an antennas to attract a signal. RAther the aluminum foil redirects and focuses the radiation pattern of an existing antennas

Nice.. I know I wasn't the only one who wasted 4min to see if it worked or not.

[@eddiepedrego8456]

[@dennislock9019]

Guess you could substitute the foil for an aluminum tube of approximate diameter and try it out on an old phone...this may just be an exercise on how to get people to watch a video.

[@alexsama131]

dear friend , do you really think you have created a 50ohm antenna with no amplifier ??

[@WolfangStudios73]

It's no where close to resonant, and so no lol

[@ryanott2461]

wow this works great, recently moved into a new house and I won't have internet for a few days I've been relying on my mobile hotspot, now my hostspot is OP, I am going to call my ISP and tell the tech that is coming to activate my modem to FUCK OFF this is way better. at this point we should just be replacing Ethernet with AUX because this system Is that good.

[@jjcjr009]

You make a hat out of aluminum and connect the wires to it, then plug it in your phone, then you can walk around and find a good signal, 😜 🤣🤣

[@robaldridge6505]

[@gundam12p]

[@SeymourKitty]

[@deodatocosta8172]

This will short out your phone's audio preamp and microphone imput cell phones don't even use the 3.5 mm jack for cellular signals this could be used boost FM radio signals but headphones are better for that.

[@OregonDARRYL]

So, we are to assume that he used the shielding to connect to the foil and kept the other two wires out of the circuit and didn't short them together - breaking your phone? No one knows how to communicate any more. Sad.

[@neonnights3376]

It ain't enough to short circuit phones there aint much electricity (volts) coming to chat wire , the biggest thing that could happen is it heating the foil and draining the battery

[@violadagamba7555]

Complete nonsense. Antennas are based on wavelength, not random soda straw length. Your headset jack is not connected at all to the cellular antenna of your phone. If this worked, your Internet reception would be blocked by every motor, engine, and other sources of radio frequency noise. Also, imagine the bacteria that grow in the cracks of that cutting board. Do you trust his judgment?

[@WolfangStudios73]

Oh wow, someone who did their research haha. You're exactly right

[@flynnfogerty6402]

That's a good question but you can connect a Bluetooth speaker

[@mickgatz214]

Well, I have watched the video and read all the comments too. :) From what I can see, it appears that he create a "Pig Tail" to act as a ground plane.... I now hand held radio operators do this function for better TX/RX So, I imagine he isolate the + (L/R) wires, and just utilise the shielding to act as a ground plane. Basic, just use any piece of wire and connect to the Earth terminal of H.P socket. Not sure how the ground plane will behave with the internal antenna though... (EDIT) : However, once you plug it in, I'm reckoning you would lose audio functionality.... (or just reconnect the 2 stereo wires back onto a pair of Earbuds?) It doing my head in just thinking about it. 😂
