If your having problems with your new 4, there are a couple of things you can do. First, hold it above the two small black lines on the bottom. * +

Second, you can also put tiny pieces of tape over the bars, though holding it a little makes more sense to me. Or use a case. You can also install a Zagg skin, which should cover them. * +

It is most likely a software glitch in the new iOS4, NOT a hardware problem. You are getting reception, it's just for some reason it's not showing in the bars. The reason it's most likely a software glitch and not hardware is because the same problem is being seen on 3G and 3GS with the update. * +

Witch as much as I love you I'm sorry but I have to disagree with you on this one, no way should I be expected to hold my phone different, apply tape to it or buy a cover just to solve a major design flaw. I love everything about the iPhone 4 but this is a serious problem, how would you feel if you bought a tv and it didn't get signal? You phone up the makers to be told you have to put it in a certain place or you need to buy a cover for it? It's no coincidence Apple released those bumpers th * +
