The rumours of a recall are just hear'say - ignore them. It'd cost Apple literally billions to recall the phone, so it'd be totally unfeasible for them to do so.

They're holding a press conference tomorrow to announce what they're doing about the issue. So hold out another 24hrs atleast.

If those bumpers fix the problems with the antenna. Wont a normal silicone case do the same?

As those bumpers just dont offer enough protection for my liking.

yes, in fact a bit of insulating tape would fix the problem, just need to insulate the contact area between the GSM antenna and the wifi antenna so that your skin cant provide a contact between them

I don't have this signal issue with mine at all.

Tried covering the corner everything, doesn't affect the signal at all.
