These tricks can work in almost every situation and you don't have to worry anymore to boost your network strength.
1.Your Mobile Screen/Theme
What most of us don't know is that two mobile screen does not show same signal strength even if they are placed on same location.
Four bars on one screen can translate to two bars on other mobile screen.
This is because our mobile phones varies in price, size and also in brands.
So, the real way to know your mobile phone signal strength is:
For android
Go to:
1.SETTINGS
2.ABOUT PHONE
3.STATUS (phone number, signal, etc.)
4.SIM STATUS
Here you'll find option that give the real value of signal strength in dBm.
There is also a secret code in android
" *#*#4636#*#* " that can also be used as signal booster.

1.DIALPAD
2.DIAL " *3001#12345#* "
You'll find your iPhone in secret field testing mode where you can find your SIM signal strength on top left corner of screen (It is also in dBm)
2.Map Signal Strength in your Home
dBm stands for decibel milliwatts. A signal upto -70dBm is pretty much a good signal but a signal under -105dBm is a dead one i.e. -105....-115 or far. So, apply these signal booster tricks if your signal fall under this range.
Signal from -105dBm to -95dBm means that your mobile is recieving 10 times better signal while the signal from -105dBm to -75dBm means it is 1000 times better signal.
What a huge difference!
"Try walking in your house with a copy and a pen to note down which location is getting better signal and which one the weakest. So, this way during next call reception you can choose the best location to talk".
3.Know which Tower you're Connected with

Let me explain with a better example:
In last point, you came to know "how to know to which cell tower you're connected with". Now you know how far is the tower from you. There are many houses/walls that are blocking your cell phone signals.
Your mobile case/cover is also one of the obstacle that is sticked to it. So, remove it when you're are suffering from poor network connection.
5.Reboot your signal
Sometimes our mobile connects with a tower with poor signal quality even if a high quality signal is available nearby that can cause call drops.
The best way to solve this problem is to turn on "airplane mode" and wait for some seconds and then turn off airplane mode. Your mobile will then switch to high quality signal automatically.
If this does not works for you, try to reboot your mobile.
6.Charge your battery
Your mobile consumes more power when you are actively using it while uses less power when on standby and this might be a reason your internet or calls are not working properly.
Give a little bit time to recharge your battery and then try again to make calls. You'll surely see a difference.
If you want to charge your mobile faster, turn on airplane mode because network consumes much power.
7.Open your windows
If you are living in a place where walls cover you from all around then opening windows might help you out.
