Had my 16g swapped yesterday for reasons posted elsewhere. When I go into the phone functions, I notice the network activity icon running. Anyone else get this? My old phone didn't do this and my buddies phone sitting right next to mine doesn't do this. It doesn't matter whether I'm on recents, keypad, voicemail or contacts. It just runs. Even when I'm talking. It doesn't appear to affect anything either.
 
Might be your push email settings. Go into settings and look at those.


Also try restoring if it gets annoying. Since you have unlimited data it's really not going to affect anything.
 
Yep, the restore worked.

So, let this be a lesson. If you swap your phone, make sure to do a restore before you sync. When the phone was exchanged, the guy swapped sim cards, and I was up and running. When I got home, I synced and thought everything was fine. Now, that I've done the restore, I get no more network activity during the Phone application.
