Decoding Symbols of WM Devices

While working on your Windows Mobile device, a strange symbol that you have never seen before suddenly popped up on your screen. What does that pointy triangle even mean? Or the capital letter E. And the manual is nowhere near my house, it’s probably in a landfill somewhere afar.

Do not panick, CareAce is here to care for your Samsung WM needs! And that is not just a cheesy comment. We have compiled a couple of charts with both the symbols and it’s descriptions nicely arranged in a table, just for moments like this. Here goes:
There are also some questions regarding the 4 most common letter that appear in a WM device’s Taskbar: “H”, “3G”, “E” and “G”. Some are explained in the chart above. Here’s the break down:

• H – 3.5G Network
• 3G – 3G Network (3.5G allows speed up to 3.5MB but usually average around 1MB~1.5MB.
• E – Edge Network
• G – GPRS Network

Hopefully these helped some of you.

We are not suggesting that you throw away your instruction manuals, but do feel free to utilize this table at time of need.
