There are some pretty signal boosters available in market which can only boost or amplify weak signal. But these products can’t bring unavailable towers.
You can buy external antenna for this purpose but this antenna is a cheap replacement of that. You can use a stick aerial for this purpose and I’ve tested that it’s better than that.
The setup in my house brought international signals from 5KM far tower. You need to locate the external antenna connecting point in your mobile.
In most mobiles, it’s below battery battery compartment or in backside of mobile. Connect an aerial antenna with it and be sure it’s ground isolated. If the antenna is somehow connected to ground, it will not function properly. place the antenna in outdoor and use a wire to bring the connection to room.

Note: Provide a cover on antenna as you are placing it outdoor, it may get electrical charge from environment which is harmful for your phone.

May 31st, 2011 at 10:32 pmNo. Just find the external antenna connector pin, and fix a wire using a thin pin and connect the other end of wire to stick antenna. -

i admire your work…sir can u please tell me how to boost tata photon+ signal, its really weak here, if you could tell me how to boost my tata photon+ internet signal i would be very happy

August 11th, 2011 at 1:28 pmThe approach I told will work in any GSM/CDMA phones and also in modems. You need to open the cover and find an antenna connector in the circuit board. The connector looks like the golden color tip I shown. With help of an soldering expert, solder a thin wire to the mid pin of the antenna connector and then attach an stick antenna there and keep the antenna untouched to ground, or anything. Even cover the whole antenna by dry plastic cover. You can use cellotapes too. -

okay…so whats the opening with the rubber cover at the side? i thought that maybe if we connect a copper wire to it and again connect the wire with an antenna might boost the signal…haha

August 18th, 2011 at 3:51 pmYeah sure. 99% chance the antenna connector is beneath the rubber cap.prashant Reply:
November 14th, 2011 at 5:28 pmhey what is the price of that Mobile signal booster. where i will gets it ? i m from mumbai!!Arup Reply:
November 15th, 2011 at 6:03 amYou need to buy an telescopic antenna which costs max 20-30Rs.

i have tata photo modem in my area signal is weak,can u tell me how to increase the signal for tata photon+
stephen johnson says
All he's on about is connecting a better ariel or piece of a long wire to the phone circuit board there's a seperate connection for a better aerial
, the circuit board u see is NOT a signal booster circuit its the inside of ur phone lots of confused people I think
Arup says
Atleast someone cared to read and understand the article. 😀

sir please tell me about how to boost data card (dongle) signal. where connect the antenna wire on data card pcb.
arun says
do you have any circuits to improve usb modem signals ie to capture 3g signals from faraway tower?
rushii_ says
Hi is there a signal booster that can be use for both cellular network and Bluetooth signal at same time but also small in size or lile an arduino board
Arnab says
I've never heard about any such circuit or a bluetooth signal booster.
