Edge Question

Default Edge Question

How can I know if I am using EDGE at my Qtek s200 or not? I see G sign at the top and not E. Is there a way to see if I am in the EDGE area or not? Like normal mobile phones has E letter when the phone is in EDGE coverage.


BTW,


EDGE [E] icon instead of GPRS [G]
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\EnableDifferGprsEdgeIcon" value="1"
(Original Value = 0)

I tried the registry hack above but although I change the value to 1, after I soft reset I see it is back to 0. Why I cant change it? Any thoughts?

If I understand correctly changing it to E will always show E and not switch to G when on GPRS

Anyone else have more info?

So it is not possible to see whether i am in EDGE or in GPRS?


:?:

I asked this question in Howard Forums I was told the indicatior does not change dynamically depending on the network (Edge/GPRS) but will always show E no matter which one you are connected to. Based on this I did not change the reg

My Jamin has that registry key set by default, and my device does show a G or an E, depending on what it's detected.

I've seen it change from G to E and back again quite frequently, so it (registry key) does not force it to stay on E.

Thanks for the info, I will give it a try.

Guess the info I had gotten earlier was incorrect

Same here - I'm sitting at home with a 'G' right now - and I generally get an 'E' in the office.

I am making speed test to understand whether i am in edge or not For instance at home i get around 40-45k while 300mt away from home i can get 120k. But all the time i get G at the today screen. :?

I am using this hack for about 2 weeks in my wizard and fortunately it shows E or G depending the presence of Edge
