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 data connection is active (data is being
transferred); the transmit/receive symbol will blink
to indicate data transmission. During data usage,
you can receive incoming voice calls or SMS
messages; outgoing voice calls can be made, but
the data services connection will terminate.
Your data connection is dormant (no data is
being sent or received). Though not currently
active, when dormant the phone can restart an
active connection quickly; voice calls can be
made and received.
If no indicator is displayed, your phone does not have a
current data connection. To launch a connection, see
“Launching a Data Connection” on page 159.
Navigating the Web
Navigating through menus and Web sites during a
data session is easy once you’ve learned a few basics.
Here are some tips for getting around:
Softkeys
During a data session, the bottom line of your phone’s
display contains one or more softkeys. These keys are
shortcut controls for navigating around the Web, and
they correspond to the softkeys directly below the
phone’s display screen.
Depending on which orientation you are using (portrait
or landscape) the left and right softkey functions are
assigned to one of the two sets of softkeys.
Note
When enabled, the Net Guard appears only once as
long as you have not turned the phone off and on.
