You can still do that. It’s called a “field test”. From your phone app dial
*3001#12345#*
And it’ll bring up a menu of all that information. I used to use it a lot back in the Nokia 2G days and it’s still around.
My issue though isn’t signal strength to the tower. That is good and would show as much. My issue ends up from the tower to the telco is so saturated you can’t get anything effective. It’s like being connected to your WiFi, but your gateway is offline.
Edit: the command I gave is for iOS. There are versions for Android too.

I meant in the notification bar, without having to install a 3rd party tool, either.
I mean that’s a lot of info for the notification bar. But it is all available without 3rd party utilities.
Yes I know that. But again that’s not my point. The point is that we need to come up with a better method than bars.
I get “Unable to complete your call” when I dial that?
