Data Connection Status and Indicators
Your phone’s display lets you know the current status of your data connection through indicators which are displayed at the top of the screen. The following symbols are used:
This icon represents your Sprint Power Vision (EVDO) data connection and coverage. A black icon indicates an active connection (data is being transferred); the triangles will blink gray, black, and white to indicate data transmission. Incoming voice calls go directly to voicemail; outgoing voice calls can be made, but the Sprint Power Vision connection will terminate.
A gray icon (shown) indicates that Sprint Power Vision service is dormant. (No data is being sent or received.)
A red icon indicates that you are in a Sprint Power Vision coverage area, but that you do not have a current data connection.
This icon represents your Sprint Vision (3G) data connection and coverage. The green icon indicates an active connection (data is being transferred); the transmit/receive symbol will blink to indicate data transmission. Incoming voice calls go directly to voicemail; outgoing voice calls can be made, but the data connection will terminate.
A gray icon indicates that a Sprint Vision connection is dormant. (No data is being sent or received.) Though not currently active, when dormant the phone can restart an active connection quickly; voice calls can be made and received.
If no indicator is displayed, your phone does not have a current data connection. To launch a connection, see “Launching a Data Connection” on page 6.
