EV-DO Symbols Key

Nrbelex · 06/29/2009, 10:56 AM

The EV-DO icon changes subtly depending on signal strength and usage. Sometimes it's dark with light font. Sometimes its light with dark font. There are probably other combinations...

Does anyone have a key or an understanding of what each version of the symbol means?

Thanks
Brett

I believe light with dark font means no data currently being sent/received, and dark with light font means data currently being sent/received.

Thats correct. Now the EVDO vs evdo non caps i don't understand

FYI 1X (slower than EVDO) is non EVDO <- doesn't mean its roaming, just that there isn't a EVDO connection.

I've only ever seen "Ev", and not "EV". Or I just haven't paid that close attention to whether the v was capital or not.

so, 1x would be "G" as opposed to "3g" Live in Puyallup, Wa. Pretty good coverage out here. Have only had 1x once, was still usable.
