Just a quick question.

I've recently got a T68i, and have noticed that in the bottom left hand corner of the screen, just above the network signal bar indicators, is an "upside down" blue bar indicator.

I don't know what this is, as it's not mentioned in the user manual, and would like to find out, as it's only recently begun showing itself.

If I were to guess, I'd assume it's the GPRS connection indicator... but I'd like to know for sure.

One other small thing...

The manual states that the GPRS connection status can be seen in the Status menu (by moving the volume slider in standby).

With my phone, the only time GPRS information is stated there is when there is no GPRS connection, whenever GPRS is working there is no GPRS listing in the Status menu.

Is this normal?

Dont use the Normal profile which u cannot rename.Use other profiles so that u could view ur gprs status. And do always pray that u have your gprs blue indicator.Without it,ur cellphone is 50% useless.

Why would it be 50% useless for me? Do you know what I use my phone for?

Unless I was using it for extensive WAP/MMS/GPRS data all the time (which I don't), what difference would not having GPRS make at all?
