signal strength especially in car

[roxane]

Had the Xperia Z3 Compact for less than a week,,, i have set it through bluetooth to get calls through my car radio,  but i am now noticing that the signal strength only shows 1-2 bars most of the time,, the number does go up when i exit the car. but i do need to be able to use the phone in the car.. my previous phone, was no problems, i had one bar showing (on phone and radio screen)  today when i turned the car on, but my husbands phone showed 4,,, not sure if i will be able to receive calls...any help would be appreciated,, thanks Roxane

The bars don't quite represent the signal strength, settings, about phone, status, signal strength


Btw is your car a tank? That might be might be blocking the radio signals
