About the Start screen
When you turn on your phone, the first
screen that appears is the Start screen.
In the middle of the Start screen, you see
information
indicating which wireless
network your phone uses. This information
can vary between phones. Other indicators
and icons appear on this Start screen
and are described in the next section.

power is left in your phone’s battery.
Volume indicator: Shows the earpiece
