If you could mark a dead zone whenever you find one and it stores that information locally and then sends all the saved locations to the server when the connection is good, that wouldn’t be so bad. You are going to have decent service at some point and if the phone talks to the server and the app talks to the server to update locations, that would work out pretty well. After a while a layer can be built with the most common dead spots replayed from all the locations being marked helping them to decide where to better position new towers. An adaptive app for the urbanized world of hidden locations.

The sad part is that it was great until about the time the i-phone came out. From that point on, it seems as though their network simply can’t keep up with things and it’s getting worse every day. I’ve been with AT&T forever. When my contract ends, I’m switching.
