This reminds me of http://bash.org/?5273

Just to make this answer not completely pointless:

* Did you search google for narrowing your search to the UMTS uplink
channels? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UMTS_frequency_bands
* Did you try raising the RX Gain? Try something like 50 dB. 76 is the
maximum value (check uhd_usrp_probe, just in case I'm wrong)
* Try with the fosphor visualization tool for a nicer and more responsive
plot.

I remember being able to see the activity of my phone in the GSM uplink
channels quite easily.
