You can run a couple tests as well to validate the signal before and after using fieldtest.exe which is in the windows folder of device memory. Also, if you change out the taskbar with another one like Gadgetfreaks 6.5 taskbar, you will notice that the bars come back. I use GF taskbar and highly recommend it. It's a matter of preference really but like you I like to see bars
If you decide to use fieldtest.exe, use total commander to view the windows folder, scroll down to fieldtest.exe, select it and choose hdr. this will show you the data signal strength. this thread gives you some insight into what the figures mean: good luck

Thanks for your feedback. The "GF" task bar, where do i find that? Is it just a .cab i can install? I still have not done reg edits or anything like that. Good thing is im pretty swift and pick up things quickly?
Secondly, totals comander. Is that something I have to download also?
