Actually I have 2 T630, one bought 16 months ago and the other one 12 months ago. I used to have full bars where I live for both T630, but now the older one has 1 bar, max 2, while the most recent one still has full bars! I have opened the T630 and cleaned the antenna with an anti-oxydation product but it didn't change anything... Any idea what the problem could be?

The only thing I can think of is that the antenna isn't in the right place and isn't making proper contact with the PCB - has the aerial been moved recently (apart from when you cleaned things), or the phone dropped at all?

Are all the little brass-coloured contacts that come into contact with the aerial still in place, and not snapped or damaged?

I had checked that, because I thought maybe it would be the problem but everything is in place, the contacts are fine so I guess it's something else...
