    Nope, there is nothing wrong with your set. Do not adjust the controls. On Verizon you can't talk and surf at the same time. You need to be on AT&T for that.

    I'm grandfathered in a good plan but with AT&T you can't FaceTime unless your on wifi or pick a shared plan. Do you think Verizon will eventually allow that capability?

    Don't think it will happen. It has to do with the type of network the Verizon uses verses AT&T.

    The iPhone 5 has only two antennas, unlike the other Verizon LTE phones that have three. Verizon says that their system will be able to accommodate the present iPhone antenna layout in a couple of years, but we'll see.
