LG VX-8300
important signal question, help!
i just got my lg 8300 around a week to 1.5 weeks ago and im still new 2 this, so forgive me if i sound like an idiot. i notice that on my phone, there are always 2 bars: an EV bar and a 1X bar, but in the icon identifier thing they show a EV bar and a D bar too, what is that, and is it better than EV and 1X? also, sometimes I have 4 bars in EV and 4 bars in 1X but when i call someone, the EV automatically drops and I only see the 1X until i hang up. is this normal and why does it do this? also what do 1X, D, and EV mean? thanks for ur help.

Yes, there can only be one connection at a time, if you are in a call it should show the 1x signal strength...you cannot have an actual phone call and evdo at the same time. Everything you described is how your phone should be operating.
...
D = Digital (coverage area if your not in the National enhanced service area)
EV = EVDO network (when you're in the new wireless broadband network where you can access VCast Music and Video)
1X = 1XRTT (the National enhanced service area, where you can access get it now and check email)
EV = EVDO network (when you're in the new wireless broadband network where you can access VCast Music and Video)
