What is this icon I had on my notification bar? - Motorola Droid RAZR

The icon sitting directly next to my blue tooth icon (it looks like three sizes of orange shoes in a Grey box) randomly appeared around game time today while and stayed without any corresponding app I could find.
It went away after a reboot and I haven't seen it return.
Any ideas?

------edit------
To name the Icons I already know
(Smart actions) (trillian) (lbe privacy guard) (jawbone companion) (MYSTERY) (Blue Tooth)
~~~~~~~edit2~~~~~~
So it has shown back up this time triggered seemingly by playing an mp3 called freestyle by tune me through the built in player.
It now remains after the song was played which was simply a series of percussive beats.
-------edit3-------
Unless there is a built in av for Verizon phones we now know it's not that nor bit defender
------ruled out-------
data saver
smart actions
(*) antivirus

Its the smart actions as far as I know.

Smart actions is the blue icon box far away from my bt icon but thanks for trying. I am mostly worried this could be a bill related thing

Could it be the data saver option? Might have an icon when it's active.

try checking your running apps and services. might be a 3rd party a app or something. Couldn't find anything specific to it when I searched.

I was not knowingly using the data saver feature (as i leave it turned off) however I will look into that possibility

I don't know but you seem to have a lot of stuff installed on your phone, that much is clear!
How's your battery life?

No, I have data saver on, and there's no icon. It does look like some sort of settings icon, though... Like juice defender, or a toggle, maybe? Have you checked the task manager to see what's running?

I've had this before. Its a pair of Orange shoes. When I pulled it down it said "Click to confirm access" Its like installing a new app but when it requires access to something it asks you. As far as I know.

Only thing is there is nothing to interact with in notifications do you know of a way to force availability of interaction?

The standard, "untouched" Netflix app should work fine now that the device check has been removed (this is the one magicriggs linked to with the Droid Life article). I've been using it for a couple days now with no issue.

Does anyone have the latest APK? It's constantly nagging to update and won't allow me to update because the Droid X2 isn't allowed to access it in market. It still works fine, but that update nag screen is getting annoying. I watch a lot of NETFLIX LOL :/
here it is.

With the size and resolution of the screen on this phone, I could see it as an excellent video device. I personally don't have a ton of times I'd use it a such though, hence my question.

Hello! Fellow Razr Owners!

Wow, is this a fun, beautiful phone.
Curious to who I know around here. Any x2/bionic peeps around? Curious to all of your thoughts on this phone and if any of you here are cheesecaking.
I must admit, I think I like this better than the Nex. Additionally, Moto made some very nice improvements to their interface (*blur*) on a lot of different levels.
Anyways, just saying hello to all of you. Let's keep this forum alive.
Cheers.

Hey 'Wolfe. Glad to see you here. I made the jump from the x2 (wife needed a working phone & I needed a new toy) the day this came out. So far, it's been a great experience & I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. Glad you're on board.

I don't use hotspots so I haven't experienced this, but I do know I don't lose apps after a reboot
So far mobile connection seems far superior, as does performance. Also, huge fan of the screen, although I do get kind of a greenish tint at times where I feel it should be white - market hang screen for example.

But am surely buying it for sure...in a while... Congrats on your phone BTW.

Hope to see you here soon, this really has been an impressive improvement on Motorola's part. As far as the screen goes there's an additional option to allow the os to manage auto brightness to conserve battery. Net effect: it's about 25% dimmer at times than just "normal" auto brightness.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda premium
I believe the dimmer look is attributed to the AMOLED screen. What I was saying as far as a "trade-off" is that I'll take a slightly dimmer screen to get a less pentile effect. This screen looks much nicer than the Bionic in my opinion...
I just "upgraded " from the nexus to the razr and I am absolutely loving it. The nexus' radio was awful. This phone is just so much more solid overall.

Got this phone a week back! Totally loving it. My old Xperia X8 was almost driving me nuts! Already rooted and safestrapped!
So how's your RAZR experience?

is there a way to leave the Red Capacitive Buttons on?

I know they turn on in low light but is there a way to keep them from turning off while in bright light??
many times I have wished they were lit so I can see them
I have been looking for the same thing!

Put a small, removable sticker over the light sensor on the top of your Rezound?
You can always get them to our come on, on demand, by placing your thumb or finger over the light sensor.

The ineffibilis gingerbread rom has the option to keep the lights on. ICS roms have them on all the time I think.
There's an app called keyboard backlight. It lets you keep them off or on all the time

Blocking the sensor works, but...
I just tried putting a small piece of tape over the sensor and found that it works. The red buttons always stay on regardless of the ambient light conditions, however, during a call the screen will no longer go dark so that your ear, cheek, etc are no longer prevented from inadvertently clicking on anything. Obviously the sensor has a double duty.

[Q] Anyone tested the ICS specific upgrades on the leaks?

Just wondering, other than the "face recognition", what are some of the other major additions to android that come with the upgrade from GB to ICS, ICS leaks etc? And has anyone tried any of them? How are they? Just wondering....
I know you said besides face recognition but I'll have to say using a pin is way faster plus it's really sensitive to light. I turned it off.

The google voice typing/dictation is pretty good even on 4.0.3 (.75 leak), but you have to select it every time via pulldown menu, i can't get it to be the default.

Cool idea for tablet ui

Could there be any way to run tge webtop 3.0 ui on the actual phone screen itself? That would make the dpi problems go away
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda app-developers app
Theres an app called nebtop but i havent tried it yet. So tempting, let me know if that works for you.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda premium
Nebtop is for webtop 2.0 and it just allows you to use webtop on non lapdocks with an hdmi cord. Im talking about running the actual webtop 3.0 on the phone screen itself, not mirroring it to an external display. Doing so would give the effect of a tablet ui on your phone.
Thank you for the response though

For Webtop 3.0 you don't need anything, just plug into HDMI and select Webtop.
@pyroemaniac: isn't DPI have to do with the screen itself and not the UI? and wouldn't running the tablet UI on the phone itself be kinda hard to use
If you lower your dpi in the build.prop you can force ics to go into "tablet" mode but it distorts ui elements and causes instability. With webtop at the right resolution on the phone screen i think could be usable and would eliminate the problems mentioned above with changing the dpi.
Plus i just think it would be cool to use the tablet netflix and other apps on my phone
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda app-developers app
you actually have the best idea I've seen in months! I wish I had the time to write an app to do this!
Yeah i thought it was a pretty good idea, i just don't know if its possible.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda app-developers app
You could try installing safestrap, back up everything, then flash the Web top to the safe system then booting into it. I'm not totally sure about it, but I believe safestrap uses the Web top partition to load a custom ram disk on top of our existing kernel as a way to boot custom roms with a locked boot loader. Though, I would believe that the Web top would need some small tweaking to run correctly, for input, not sure the touch screen drivers would be included... Etc. But if it could be done i wonder with some additional tweaks if we could build a fully functional ubuntu rom...

He is basiclly talking a rom or a launcher with the looks of tablet mode, but on the cellphone screen without connecting anything, something like paranoid android rom we have on samsung galaxy note, i personally tried it on a note and its pretty good, would be cool for Razr.
In a way yes, but what i am talking about is we actually use the webtop software thats already installed on our device. If there was a way to open it like an application that would switch us over to tablet mode "webtop" and when you want to go back to phone mode you just use the same app to switch back.
I think that makes sense haha

All we need is a toggle button to flip one bit. The question though is which bit. Perhaps this thread would garner more serious response if posted in the dev section?

I totally understand that, and you probably WILL get *****ed at, but maybe one dev will think "great idea & i think i know how to do that." Go ahead and clearly post there exactly what you are talking about. Who knows, we could have that toggle by tomorrow &i bet it would get a LOT of press as it would be a whole new interface for Android phones!
This thread is a little old, but I recently acquired a Razr with a bad ESN and cracked but still working screen to use as a HDMI attached media device. Webtop was giving me a few issues, refusing to switch to tablet mode sometimes, so I decided to see if the dpi could be changed to force it into an always tablet mode.
Using a backup of the stock 4.1.2 ROM in Safestrap slot 1, I changed the DPI to 120 and it seems to be working well, apps still show as compatible in Google Play. I'm using Holo Launcher HD and had to switch some settings to get icons looking right.
Here is what 120DPI looks like if anyone is interested.
