Upcoming iOS 4.0.1 Will Fix iPhone 4′s Signal Problem “aka Death Grip”

iPhone 4′s signal issue now touted by users and bloggers as the “Death Grip” will soon be fixed with a simple OS update (iOS4.0.1). AppleInsider readers claims that they have  confined on Apple’s technical forum that an iOS4.0.1 which will fix the iPhone 4 signal issue is due next week and could be ready by Monday. The thread was taken down for unknown reason before  iPhone 4 users can react.

The fix is expected to address a issue in iOS 4 related to radio frequency calibration of the baseband. Readers who saw the original forum discussions say that the issue is believed to occur when switching frequencies; because the lag is allegedly not calibrated correctly, it results in the device reporting “no service” rather than switching to the frequency with the best signal to noise ratio.

Last time we told you how to fix iPhone 4′s reception problem, and it looks like Apple is listening and will provide a patch that will fix the issue once and for all.
