Sprint PCS Vision Connection Status and Indicators

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

Your Sprint PCS Vision 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 Sprint PCS Vision connection will terminate.

Your Sprint PCS 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.

Your phone is not currently able to access Sprint PCS Vision service features.

If no indicator appears, your phone does not have a current Sprint PCS Vision connection. To launch a connection, see “Launching a Sprint PCS Vision Connection” on page 255.
