I want to show a signal strength icon in my application with the same logic as the icon is doing in the standard Android status bar. But I am wondering, what exactly does this icon represent and what kind of scale is it using? Does it represent the gsm signal strength as of signalStrength.getGsmSignalStrength(); ?
As read in the Android docs, the range for the gsm signal strength is 0..31, but how is that reflected in the icon (if it actually reflects the gsm signal strength, does it?)? The icon has 4 bars, and in my case right now they're all filled even with an asu value of only 18 (when I check in the settings/phone status of my device / Nexus One 2.1). So it doesn't seem to be reflected proportional. I would expect that with asu (that's the gsm signal strength, right?) of 18, it would max. show 3 bars - but it shows full signal (4 bars). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
