On the Sanyo VM4500 5500, is it possible to see the signal stength on the main screen in db rather than lines? If so, how? If not, where can I see this information?

Thanks!

Doesn't anyone want to see the "actual" signal strength in db rather than via a graphical indicator?

you can't see it on your main screen but you can go into the debug screen or test mode to see it. i don't know how you do this on the sanyo, though, anyone else have one that can tell him?

I think it's ##33284 on all phones.

Doesn't work on the VM4500 5000. For that phone you need to use ##040793, and then select the first and second option. Afterwards, every few seconds you will see the signal strength flash onto the screen in dBm.
