Zusammenfassung:A mobile device having capabilities to access connections to cellular and Wi-Fi portions of a hybrid telecommunications network is configured to display a variety of different icons that graphically indicate a current connection status for both data usage and voice calling on a graphical user interface (GUI). A user can put the GUI into an expanded state to show additional information about the connection status including textual descriptions of icons to instruct the user as to the specific meaning of a given icon. The textual descriptions enable an association between the iconography and the connection state to be established for the user. The icons can then quickly and effectively convey connection state to the user in a comprehensive manner while efficiently using the available display space on the device. 具有访问到混合电信网络的蜂窝和Wi-Fi部分的连接的能力的移动设备被配置成显示各种不同的图标,这些各种不同的图标图形地在图形用户界面(GUI)上指示数据使用和语音呼叫两者的当前连接状态。用户可将该GUI置于扩展状态中以显示关于连接状态的附加信息,该附加信息包括图标的文本描述以向用户指示关于给定图标的具体含义。文本描述能够实现图标法与要针对用户建立的连接状态之间的关联。图标可接着以容易理解的方式快速且有效
