Abstract
Methods and apparatus that relate to the display of network availability and quality of service (QoS) to a user of a multiple mode communication device are disclosed. An example method includes measuring, at a communication device, a quality of service metric from a call registration response message for a call, the call registration response message being a response to a call registration message routed through a first communication provider to a second communication provider, comparing the quality of service metric to a time interval in which the call registration response message is to expire, and selectively displaying a representation of the quality of service metric for the first communication provider to a user at the communication device based on the comparison.
