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.

after updating my jamin with the latest rom the network icon now shows "E" instead of "G" although I dont have EDGE technology and I use GPRS. I successfully made a GPRS connection and after disconnecting it shows "G" for a while then turns back to "E"!!!! anyone experience the same problem!?
this is not a problem. If your network is able to work with Edge, it will appear "E" and than when you connect it will appera "G" (because your device don´t have EDGE). This icon it represents what your network is able to offer.
the problem is; I KNOW THAT MY PROVIDER DOESNT HAVE EDGE!!!

who is your provider? as far as i know all providers in the use who is capable of using this phone on thier network is edge capable. outside of the small mom and pops. cingular/tmobile/cellularone are all edge capable.
sorry just read this thread over at hf.
I've had this . It momenterily shows the E and then reverts back to G. I am with Orange UK and I am in a Strong 3G network cell. I know that Orange are suposed to running edge out to areas with no 3G but not sure when.
I can only assume that it is picking up an edge signal from somewhere. To tell you the truth I wish I saw the E all the time . That would at least give me edge speeds .
This is defo a problem (Well doesn't hinder the phone). I was using my Jamin with copilot which was connected the whole time to Copilot Live via a GPRS connection. If I come out of the copilot screen and initiat a call the G symbol changes to an E . It then reverts back to a G when the call finishes.
Maybe your provider is doing some EDGE testing?
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 yet to get the TyTN, but I am curious as if there is a noticeable way of it being connected to 3G.
On the Wizard you get a G for GPRS and E for Edge.
Does a 3 show up?
The Vodafone ones have a 3 that appears where the G would be for GPRS. The HTC ones have a U. I *think* there are EDGE versions showing an E but I have yet to personally see it...

There is a "G" for GPRS and/or EDGE.
There is a "U" for UMTS and/or HSDPA.
Hello,
For all those who are using their Trinity, do you get the E sign to indicate Edge network when your in an Edge area or you get a G similar to the Hermes? The manual says you should have E to indicate Edge and I am in an Edge area and see G. Strange.
Thanks,
Gilbert
same problem here.. probably just some early firmware growing pains.
... Aha, good to see that there are more then me who got a bit confused with the icons I get a G-icon when 3G is not available, and 3G-icon when 3G is available.
Same to me - cheers
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
