OR You can use the Spotlight Search by typing "FieldTest"

Also try "iOS Diagnostics"

whats that -75 on the top left of the phone?

[janX9]

@lilweezyana323 That's his Signal Steanght Bars represented as numbers.

I don't know how the numbers work though, as I set my phone this way once and it said -80 or something and at the time I had great reception, so I don't use that feature. The Wi-Fi and 3G can also be set to numbers, but I find it all confusing and stick with the visual icons instead.

All my values are unknown....

@Chunderitis Many of mine are too. I think it's because my phone is unlocked and jailbroken.

hi gjtfreack, The field test is an app that gives you parameters like the received power of the cellular radio base stations. If you have an Iphone 3G you should check in the UMTS menu, so you can find all the parameters of the station in which your cell phone is attached to.

Is it an iPhone emoticon? If so, how did you post your comment to youtube? For some reason when I post comments on youtube from my phone they don't show up, and I've tried a few youtube apps thus far.
