Which has always been the case, a network has control over your phones power levels and will reduce them to "Just what is needed" to efficiently connect to the network and No more, if your phone shows increased RX signal the network will lower it's Station class mark (Power level) So in short, where the signal is fine you may be doing yourself a disservice by connecting a signal booster...
