Connection Status and Indicators

Your phone's display lets you know the current status of your data connection through indicators which appear at the top of the screen. The following symbols are used:

Your data connection is active (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 connection will terminate.

Your data 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.

Your phone is not currently able to access data features.

If no indicator appears, your phone does not have a current data connection. To launch a connection, see “Launching a Data Connection” on page 188.
