Another N series Flaw

This was the second problem that I had encountered using the Nokia N series phone. So probably you will know how this post would go - a rant post so bear with it.

Nokia is one of the famous brands available over the market for selling different kinds of cellphone handsets, and since it's popular a lot of people uses this brand even those within the poverty line in this country. What's so special with Nokia? It's user-friendly. You don't need any formal education on how to let the thing function properly. It's easy to use and efficient. Upon opening your handset box you can instantly set it up and text your way to your friends or even call the people you wished to call to brag about your new phone. It's that simple to use. However, if you encounter bugs within the system itself (like me) then it is another story.

You can see that I had stated that this would be the second problem that I had encountered while using Nokia. The first problem can be found here for you to read. But to recapitulate the first problem that I had encountered I can say that I had the difficulty on connecting the said the device to the computer using the USB cable provided, with which up to now wasn't even resolved by either the manufacturer, Nokia, or any other people (i.e. technicians) out there.
Now for the second time, Nokia disappoints me for their buggy handset included in their N series collection. I never thought that I'm going to be a victim again of this still unresolved problem dating back from 2006! All over the world people are making rants about this problem that I had now encountered - losing their signal!

Try to Google "N series no signal" any N series, be it N70, N80, N90, blah, blah, blah, it will bring you result on people complaining about losing their signal, people complaining that they cannot make and receive calls, and people ranting that they can't receive any text messages at all.

What the Nokia personnels in forums suggest again is to go to the nearest Nokia service center so as to diagnose the existing buggy problem within your handset. They won't provide patch update, and so on. They will just suggest that you go to let your phone be diagnose and if problems exists they would replace your phone with the same model. Yet there is no assurance that it's bug free! Other's will suggest that you force GSM to provide you with signal but this is 0% success rate at all, and not of help to those who are seeking answers.

And now I am one of them, ranting over the sudden lost of signal on the phone that I am using. My carrier provider, SMART, does in fact have a strong signal within our household and the place that I currently stays with but why in the world does my handset doesn't have signal. I had tried my SIM on my mother's phone and it does it fact have signal, but when I use my mother's SIM on my phone, BAM!, same results no signal! Now what the hell am I going to do with this phone, it seems like a paper weight to me now, no use at all, since I can't text my friends.

Anyway, I'm going to turn the buggy phone off to let it cool down for the meantime, maybe it might work, maybe not, but I'm going to still research if there is a possible solution over the internet that I had not read, and try it out or I'm just going to head out directly to Nokia wireless center for professional help.
