Data Connection Status and Indicators

Your phone displays the current status of your data
connection through indicators at the top of the screen.
The following symbols are used:

Your phone is connected to the high-speed
Sprint Mobile Broadband Network (EVDO).
When the triangles are animated, data is being
transferred (for example, when you are
opening a Web page); when the triangles are
a solid grey, 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 animated, data is being transferred (for
example, when you are opening a Web page)
and you cannot receive calls. When the arrows
are a solid 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.

Note

When enabled, the Net Guard appears only once as
long as you have not turned the phone off and on.
