Checking Signal Strength and Phone Status

You can monitor the status of your device’s signal strength and several other items, using icons in the title bar of the Phone application.

	Sprint	Your phone is on and you’re inside the Sprint National Network. If
		you are outside a coverage area, No Service 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.
		Your phone is on and is connected to the high-speed Sprint Mobile
		Broadband data network. When the triangles are blue, data is
	or	being transferred (for example, when you are opening a Web
		page); when the triangles are gray, you are connected to the
		network but data is not currently being transferred (for example,
		when you are viewing a Web page that is completely open). In
		either state, you can receive incoming calls.
		Your phone is on and is connected to the Sprint (1xRTT) data
		network. When the arrows are green, data is being transferred (for
		example, when you are opening a Web page) and you cannot
		receive calls. When the arrows are gray, you are connected to the
		network but data is not currently being transferred (for example,
		when you are viewing a Web page that is completely open), and
		you can receive calls.
		Your phone is on and you are within range of a Sprint data
		network, but you do not have an active data connection. You can
		receive incoming calls.
		The Location ON option has been selected. The icon appears with a
		red slash when the 911 only option has been selected. See
		“Setting Phone Preferences” on page 91 for information.
