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 Sprint Vision (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.

or

Your phone is on and is connected to the high-speed Sprint Power
Vision data network. When the triangles are blue, data is 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 you are within range of a Sprint Vision or
high-speed Sprint Power Vision 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 90 for information.
