[Q] What is this SIM icon and how to clear this? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Since I updated my systemui.apk to have a blue signal bar I keep getting this strange SIM icon showing intermittently next to my wi-fi signal icon?
Does anyone know what this is as I cannot find any alerts, there is nothing to click on or configure?
Never seen this before now?

If you have the clock set to display in the title bar, then the battery icon will not show. Try disabling that. In settings, clock & alarms, more tab, uncheck show time in title bar.

[Q] Mystery Icon in notification bar

I've turned off all of the location services in settings, but my notification bar still has an icon that looks like the GPS is still on. It's a circle with a cross in it and arrows at the cardinal directions. I've even turned GPS off using the power control widget, but it's still there. Anyone know what this and how to get rid of it?

That is the GPS icon and unless you are unlocked you cannot get rid of it (that I know of).

[Q] Icon in Notification Bar i can't disable

Can anyone help with this. I did a Google search and looked in teh phone where the icon description list is and there is no info on this.
On the notification bar there is a new icon i have never seen. It is to the left of the 4G and is like GPS but it's not a circle but more of a diamond shape with curved signal bars going towards the right, at the 4G icon. I feel kinda silly but since nothing I've changed in the settings anywhere has turned it off.
Thanks
Eric
It's gps/location services (not just standalone). The bars can be removed by turning off location services but the icon itself remains from what I've seen. Probably icon represents at least e911?

Hey thanks. It reminded me of GPS but looked different. So non-GPS but standard Location Services will keep that on? Too bad, it just clutters the notification bar.
Yeah i tested it out and the icon does stay but the signal bars go away if you turn off location services totally off. Bummer. I see that as something to maybe fix in the custom roms.

Hiding dual carrier signal strength indicator

I'm currently using 2 sims on the dual sim model, and there are 2 signal strength indicators in the status bar to the left of the notch. That leaves practically no room for actual notifications, so I'm wondering if there's a way to hide the signal strength indicator for both carriers I'm on? I've tried using SYSTEMUI Tuner but none of the toggles would hide any of the indicators.
Silly question but did you restart your device after using system ui tuner?
Not a silly question at all, in fact I and not restarted the device after flipping the toggles but in my defence, it was because I could see other indicators appear and disappear in real time so I didn't think it was necessary. Nonetheless I did try to restart after turning off a few items that seem to relate to signal strength but still no dice. Thanks for the suggestion though!
I am having the same issue, looks like you can only have one notification for the dual sim version. I assume the only solution is to use the number of notifications option rather than the icon, given that only one icon will appear at a time. For example, I set up call forwarding and despite having several notifications, only the CF icon appears in the bar. If you add Network Speed then none will.
