On the last few Nokias I've owned, you could activate "Field Test" screens which showed a ton of info related to the phone state both on and off a call. This included a decibel readout of the current signal strength, which I sorely miss. I've searched the net and can't find a WM app that will show this info. Anyone seen anything like it? The info must be available via the API, and therefore written into an app somewhere.

I'm not sure what your looking for but have you tried this?

Go half way down the page to see the various screens described. Tons of info on signal strength, channels being received, transmission power, delay, etc etc
