T-Mobile dead in Portland ?

[DonIsHere]

I know there are other more cell-phone-dedicated sites that I should go to check, but I want to do an informal check here first.

Is T-Mobile coverage temporarily dead in Portland as of this post?

I'm asking because my phone has been turned on for about 2 hours now (I had to recharge the battery), and my phone has not been able get on to the network. The signal strength shows 5 or all 6 bars, but it still says "No Service".

I heard that the US army was testing EMP devices in oregon for the next 3-4 months, and residents can expect to have essentially no functional electrical devices for that time

Have you tried turning your phone off and then on again? If that doesn't help, something might be wrong.

I just called my wife's T-Mobile using my T-Mobile phone (family plan).

Works just fine.

Did you try what I recommended? Turning the phone off and then back on? That works for this type of problem like 98% of the time.
