Indicator Area Icons
Icon Meaning
The Signal Strength indicator uses bars to show the
strength of the radio signal. The number of bars increases
(up to a maximum of six) as the signal strength increases.
Note: This icon is displayed only when data services are
available.
When no bars are shown, no connection is possible for one
of the following reasons:
ⅷ You are outside of the Nationwide Sprint Network
service area.
ⅷ The signal strength is too weak.
ⅷ A network problem is preventing the Sprint Mobile
Broadband USB modem from obtaining service.
The Transmit/Receive icon lets you know that a Sprint data
connection is active.
The Optimization image compression software is active.
The CDMA 1xEVDO icon appears when CDMA 1xEVDO
service is available and active.
The Roaming indicator lets you know that you have
roamed from a Sprint Network to a roaming partner's
system.
