What are all those icons?

You can monitor the status of several items using icons in the title bar of the Phone application:

Your phone is on and you are in a Verizon Wireless coverage area. If you are outside a coverage area, No Service, Extended Network, or Roaming appears instead. No Service means that there is no coverage at all and Roaming means that another wireless service provider’s network is available. When you turn off your phone, Phone Off appears.

You are outside a Verizon Wireless coverage area and are roaming on another wireless service provider’s network. This icon appears in addition to the word Roaming, and the icon may flash if the provider is not on the Verizon Wireless preferred roaming list.
