System Sounds
Built into CellShark are 4 different audible alerts which allows you to know what's going on without having to look at your phone. A different tone is associated with each main event, network connect, network drop, cell search connect, and cellsearch drop. All tones can be turned off by unticking the Sound tick box. I find the sounds feature is handy when I'm out of coverage and want to use my phone, start CellShark and you're alerted the very second you're in coverage, without having to constantly check your phone
Graph Tab
This is the main tab when CellShark is opened. It is a scrolling graphical display of your signal strength for the previous 120 seconds. A nice feature is the current connection mode 2G or 3G are displayed indifferent shades of green (see next image), 3G = Light Green, 2G = Dark Green.Also shown are the cell handovers which are indicated in red
Stats Table
This is a very useful table as it tells you exactly what's going on with your connection status, i.e. what cells you hit (CGI column), how many times you've attached to that cell (Hits column), Total seconds connected to that cell (Secs column), and the most important value, the % on that cell. In the example above you can see that 32% of the time my home cell is 23430-606-34627, I've handed onto it 7 times, and stayed connected for 866 seconds
History Table
The history table records your connection status history, timestamped CGIs with thecurrent mode (2G/3G), and seconds connected
Alert Buttons
A great feature is you can use CellShark toalert you when you connect or disconnect to a cell, which you will be alerted by a different audible tone and the CGI search box changing colour, red = connected, grey = not connected. You can set the search function to your current connectedcell by clicking the CGI button
To search for a user defined cell and to be alerted when you connect/disconnect by atone, enter a CGI in the text input CGI box, shown red in the image below (red = connected), then click the Alert on CGI button. In the example below it's set to 23430-606-34627, you can also use partial CGIs to alert on a LAC for example, 23430-606, or alert on a network 23430
