I am on straight talk with my 920, I used to get great reception and now I get horrible reception everywhere, often no reception at all. It may or may not have been after a drop. I can not remember.

I did a factory reset and figured since that did not fix it, it wasn't a software issue. so I ordered these two parts and replaced them both in my phone.

Replacing these also did nothing. Any ideas what might have broken and how I might be able to fix my reception? Can't afford another 920 and my phone is unusable in so many places =/.

I can't send it in for warranty since the screen has a crack.

Do you have an insurance policy on the phone or can you take one out? There are some videos you can see online of how to swap the polycarbonate shells of the 920's and in that the video's tell you how to put the aerial's in the shell correctly. Maybe that will help?
