Therefore, we have put together a list of top ten best tips and tricks for you below (or see PDF file above) for getting better service on your phone. They show you how to boost cell phone signal strength for free (no purchase necessary). These top 10 how to get better cellphone reception and increase cell phone signal strength tips (links to infographic display version) were chosen because they are quick and easy to implement, with the best chances to make the fastest cellular connection you need to make that call. These work regardless of which mobile carrier's service you have - Verizon Wireless, AT&T Wireless, Sprint, T-Mobile, or any other.

Let us get started with tips for improving cell phone reception:

1. The Window Trick:

   Go close to a window for better reception, or better yet - open the window and your phone or tablet will get a stronger signal. Why? Walls block signals more so than windows.

2. Phone Holding Trick:

   Hold the phone using opposite hand or better yet - place it on a table or dashboard away from you (use speakerphone). Why? Our body blocks antenna in phone from catching a weak signal.

3. Airplane Mode Trick:

   Turn on Airplane mode for 5 secs and then turn it off. Why? Your cell phone will stop trying to connect to cell tower yielding weak signal and search for new cell tower with stronger signal.

4. Wi-Fi Calling Trick:

   Most carriers offer free Wi-Fi calling. If connected to broadband Wi-Fi internet, enable Wi-Fi calling option in your phone to call using Wi-Fi signal instead of weaker cellular connection.

5. Elevation Trick:

   Go to a higher floor or climb a nearby hill to get a stronger cell connection. Why? The lower your elevation, the more obstructions exist that block line of sight connection to nearest cell tower.

6. Battery Trick:

   Charge your phone to give it more power to operate its signal search function. Why? When battery is low, the phone automatically goes into energy conservation mode that does not search as hard for signal anymore.

7. Closing Apps Trick:

   Close all non-essential apps and web pages. Why? The processor can use all its resources and max power to perform cell signal search function, instead of diverting some of its power to maintain running apps and web pages.

8. Location Trick:

   Move away physically as far as possible from current location with weak signal. Why? In crowded places, your phone is competing with others for cellular signal so it is best to create distance from others.

9. Cell Tower Trick:

   Locate the closest cell tower using available apps or by putting your phone in test mode. Why? When you locate it, you can try to get a better line of sight or go closer within home or outside in that direction for stronger reception.

10. Borrowing Trick:

    If all else fails, try this old fashioned trick that you may have not considered before - ask anyone nearby to check if their cell phone carrier provides a signal there. If yes, ask: May I use it for a minute to make an urgent call?
