annoying cell phone "feature"

[jdl22]

Up until some time last year I had the shitty Nokia phone that you get for free from Verizon. A friend upgraded his phone and gave me his. It's an LG VX4400.

Something that I find greatly irritating about my phone that is not present on the super low end phones is that after I make a call and hang up it flashes for 4 or 5 seconds the duration of the call. While it is only a short period of time it is really irritating because I very frequently make a call immediately after having ended one.

I've looked in the manual and have no idea how to turn this off. Is this possible?

Also, I will soon be getting a new phone. Can anybody suggest a decent phone that doesn't do this? I'm thinking something around a hundred bucks after the reup discount.
