Update the cell towers in your area to get a better signal.
Updating the cell phone tower on your phone requires that you update the PRL (Preferred Roaming List) on your device. Updating the PRL locates the nearest cell phone tower in your area that can provide you with the best signal to make calls and send and receive data. It also allows you to roam on other networks, if there is not a cell phone tower for your network in the area. Most phones automatically update the PRL, but you can do it manually if you are finding it hard to get a signal.
