I upgraded my Cingular rom to the newer rom (cant rember the version)
now I have the Square E (Or G) that sits next to the signal strength,
before the Square E, would be square if connected, or have th Arrows next to it, and the Signal strenth would be just the antenna symbol with the bars next to it.
now the Antenna logo it replaced by th G or E, and the Square E never changes.
Registry to change back? or is this just the way it is?
AFAIK the area to the left of the signal indicator is an indication of what wireless service you have available. If you have WiFi it will show a small icon which looks like a radio tower, if you have GPRS it will show a letter G in a white squire, if you have an EDGE connection available it will have a letter E in the white square.
When you actually get connected the WiFi will get a couple of arrows showing data traffic, the GPRS & EDGE will have a an E or G added to the top of the signal strength indicator. If you are connected with Activestink then it will show the left & right data arrows.
BTW it's far to complicated for such a simple piece of info.

hi armstrong, somehow that same indicator that should be E or G is now just X, do you know what is causing that? I don't get E or G now.

I have an Atom Exec and I only get the "G" gprs icon displaying instead of the "E" icon for edge connection (yes, my mobile network supports edge in my area). I'm only getting about 30-40kbs GPRS download speeds too, so definitely not EDGE speeds. Is this a bug? Is anyone else having this issue or is this some setting that the provider needs to change on their end? BTW, I uploaded the latest ROM.
hey i am also facing the same problem .
bt my case is a bit different one .at some location in my house
i get E sign bt get G for the rest.
i want to kno if edge or gprs network availability has anything to do
with traffic???
plzzz reply
I have an E logo on my Herald? Does this mean im connected to edge? If so, how do i disable this?
Thanks for your help.
yes, but you wont be charged for internet. if you dont pay for it
Hi theeogflip
The E is displayed when an EDGE network is available. You are only connected when the E is displayed ABOVE your Signal Indicator. So if the E is displayed on the left side of your Signal Indicator and is not above your Signal Indicator, you are NOT connect but letting you know it is available. Sometimes if EDGE is not available, you will see a G instead of the E.
Hi i have the HD2 on 02 and when im in a 3G area my network operater changes to show 3G 02-UK but my signal bars dont change they stay the same as
(the 8th one down on the left of page 39)
the symbol to the left of the signal bars shows H with two arrows i havent seen my signal bars change to show
(5th one down on the right of page 39)
why is this?
Am i connected to 3G?
I have never seen my signal bars change like the ones on page 39/40?

The manual is wrong.
My O2 HD2 on t-mobile shows 3G/G/H in a white box when no data connection on.
When data connection is on, you will see 3G/H/G (and possibly E [t-mobile dont have E]) with arrows, indicating data is on.
The manual suggests that the signal icon will intregrate with the data icon whereas we see it as data icon then signal icon.
What you are seeing is correct.
When it shows 3G with arrows, you are connected to 3G, H is slightly faster 3G, E is edge (slightly faster 2G) and G is GPRS 2G.
ok thats cool so when i see the H with arrows this is faster than 3G so what are the actual speeds of 3G & this H thingy? and does this mean that my HD2 is connected to a faster connection than my mates iGay 3GS
HSPDA: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-Speed_Downlink_Packet_Access
The actual speeds may vary, depending on network, tower distance, how many people connecting on that tower etc etc.
basically
GPRS=2G
EDGE=2.5G
3G=3G
H (HSDPA)=3.5G
Hello
I just updated my rom top the 1.66 WWE and have noticed some weird behavoir on the display. Where normally on 2G I would have A large G symbol on the phone when not connected and the same when connected to the net but also with a small G I now have the reverse. When on 2G the large G is still there but when connected I have a small H showing indicating HSPDA connection but without being on 3G. Also when on 3G I have a large H showing but a small G when connected to the net. It seems the symbols are mixed up. Bit of a mouthfull I know but hopefully someone will get what im trying to explain.
im sure this usd to work, but recently ive noticed it doesnt. when im in a call, my data connection disconnects. normally this isnt a problem, but sometimes i will want to look something up on the internet while in a call. like i said, im sure this used to work, but now it doesnt. im on t-mobile UK with an unlimited data plan, i have a near full HSDPA signal. im running the CleanEX DsE v15 ROM with Radio 2.11.
any thoughts
should work on 3g, not on edge or gprs
don't be confused by the left hand network symbol showing an H, that's just what your network is offering. the signal bars icon must also be showing H
i have a H as the left hand icon, and a little h above the signal bars. when i start a call, the smaller h changes to a picture of a phone. if i try and use any web features it just times out. when i hang up the call, my data connection seems to have been disconnected, as it shows a T shape above the signal bars, then changes back to the H after a few seconds
