All about performance

Keeping tabs on signal strength.
The voice quality of your Sprint PCS Phone will always be at its
best when the antenna is fully raised. If you're inside a building,
reception may be better near a window.
The quality of each call you make or receive depends on the signal
strength in your area. Your phone will inform you of the current
strength by displaying a number of bars next to the signal strength
icon. The more bars displayed, the stronger the signal. (See page
12 for an illustration of the signal strength indicators.)
Understanding Power Save mode.
If you're trying to use your phone in an area where the signal is
too weak, the Power Save feature will automatically activate to
conserve battery power when you've been unable to pick up a
signal for 15 minutes. If your phone is on, it will periodically
recheck service availability, or you can do so yourself manually by
pressing any key. A message will be displayed on the screen any
time Power Save has been activated.
