It means the sim isn't inserted/isn't recognised. Remove it, give it and the connector a quick clean/blow (Ha!) and it should be fine.
Its not the sim card. Its the memory card symbol.

nope. just wont go away.
Do you have an external sdcard inserted? Check if its mounted, visible in file manager.
Are all sdcard, internal & usb (mounted), and external, visible in CWM Recovery when connected to pc?
Check, menu / settings / storage / unmount & mount again
Power off and reinsert, checking the contacts on card and phone are ok and not obstructed.
FULL format card in pc fat32 default allocation. Edit: backup contents first.

Thanks for your replies.
it is definitly not the Memory card, as i removed it and turned on the phone, and as soon as i make a phone call and hang up, this weird icon appears in the status bar.
On a sidenote, this has started happening once i swapped my simcard because i changed carriers.
Can you try another sim, maybe a friends? Maybe sim itself?

I'm trading my Vibrant soon so I need to wipe ALL data. The problem is my pc just stopped powering on, so I don't have access to ODIN. Is there another way to wipe? I'm not going to hand my phone over to a random dude without being sure all my data is cleared off.
Will a factory restore do it? I'm on Bionix V. Thanks.
SEEK NO more
*#*#7780#*#* put this in yer dialer
than just go in to settinds -sd card - and format both of sd cards
if u need more reset codes let me know :LPp
Nice, thanks. So after I format both cards it will leave the phone with Bionix V, and nothing else. What about apps and stuff? Not that it matters, just curious.
When I put those numbers in the dialer, it says all my account and system data will be erased, but not SD card files such as music or photos. Any idea how to get rid of the rest?

It is an sd card error
Back up al important files on external sd on other device and format your sd from setting... Everthing should be fixed... If not try remove external sd and reboot but first suggestion should work

Download "Rescan Media Root" from market.
Run the app for few minutes to trigger the scanner process.

1. Remove your external SD.
2. Run the app again.
- disable media scanner, exit the app
- Run the again, and enable media scanner.
3. If it's showing properly now, then re-insert your SD card, then retest again.
Ps:
Backup the contents of your SD card on your Pc, just in case.

Wait let me get this straight.
1) i reboot phone without doing anything and first it shows preparing usb at notification area.
2) Then it shows checking sd cards error.
3) By right it should show media scanner running too but it didnt and when i press gallery straight away it fc with media scanner running and my video wont show my video in sd card.
It is suppose to run media scanning in background without notifying in ics rom? Because i remember it should show in notification area after checking sd card error and after i leave it for a few minutes( yes really a few minutes and not seconds) all my media in sd card showes up and no more fc with media scanner in gallery. Is this how it suppose to work?

Does your phone sim card work when you have clean phone, I mean when you haven't flashed any kernals or ROMS? just when you used SEUS to repair it
On other phones it goes well... but on 10 i cant even boot the phone. Nothing happens. Like if you dont even put battery in. Nothing. No beep no vibrate no SE logo no battery charging .

Does anyone else occasionally experience an app mysteriously vanishing after restarting your phone? It's not as frequent anymore but it will happen to me with certain apps.
I'm wondering if this is because somehow they aren't compatible with my 64GB microSD- IF that's the default save location or if anyone else is experiencing this.
Thanks!

First of all, apps can't be saved on the microSD card on this phone. Check my FAQs on that.
Secondly, I've heard of disabled apps re-installing themselves on our phone on reboot, but not the other way around. Can you tell us which apps are doing that?
Airdroid, Fatbooth, FartDroid, etc... you know.... important apps... lol. This is my second phone to do it. The XDA app used to do it too. Some others as well. Their icons still show in folders but when you click it says the app is not installed.
Sent from my ADR6410LVW using xda app-developers app
I've experienced the same problem. They will randomly come back to life, but it seems if apps are stored on what the phone thinks is the SD card rather than the internal storage, it has a greater tenancy to vanish.
I've had this happen a few times. I have not noticed whether they are apps I have moved to the phone storage area or not.
When I move them, they seem to be ok. That is until an update for that app, if I restart before moving it back it'll delete.

Last night I moved my apps from internal to phone storage to make more space. After a while, my phone died. When I turned it back on, guess what? 90% of the apps vanished from my phone. Here I am redownloading everything... is this normal or does my phone have problems?

I might return and exchange the phone. No apps will save to phone storage and it keeps telling me I have insufficient storage in the internal storage.... Can anyone save to phone storage, restart and see if apps are still there?

Might be something with your handset I have 1.6GB on phone storage and haven't had any apps self delete. I have run out of space on the internal storage, 1GB there isn't much. My plan is to s-off over Christmas when work shuts down and see if any progress has been made being able to move apps to the external SD. There was some talk about it a while ago.
Thanks for the response! Perhaps I have an issue with my phone. If I move apps to phone storage they will be completely deleted upon reset.
When I click apps on phone storage it shows the apps that are really in internal storage but when you click the apps they say "move to phone storage". Very strange.
I'll do a factory reset and see if it helps the issue.
How many apps do you have on phone storage?

My SD is stuck in read only and won't let me delete or add files. I've tried changing the permissions to R/W in root explorer and removing a file but it shows right back up. I took the card out and used and adapter to mount it to my PC but it won't let me delete, add, or format the card. On the adapter it has a lock switch but it is set to unlock and other SD cards work both in my phone and with the adapter on the computer. Any ideas?
