Am trying to clear the top left most notification icon but couldn't find what's it about.
Anyone able to help here?
Have attached an image on that icon.

enable "notification" in pulldown switches then it will get usual

[Q] Go Launcher

Is anybody else's go launcher cut off a little bit at the bottom when you pull up the settings menu to get to preferences, etc?
Mine was, until I turned off the notification bar. Since then, I've been able to see all of the menu.

How did you do that?
GoLauncher preferences/screen settings/ uncheck Status Bar.
how do you get the status bar back after that? I can't find a way to make it show up again

Download button savior from the android market. Use the menu key on button savior. From here you will be able to pull up the settings for go launcher when you are at your homescreen. This will give you the option of putting the status bar back down at the bottom.

If you do that, is there a widget or something (I searched Market but couldn't find anything) that can be used to show you notifications?

go to preference menu, the operations menu, go to glide down settings, then select show/ hide notifications. After that you can glide your finger down to show/hide your notitications bar.

There's no way I can know what it is
Draw down the notification bar, tap Notifications. This just tells you that notifications are currently disabled.

it also can mean you have more notifications than can be displayed in the top bar at the present time.

I had that icon come up when I was roaming. sorry can't remember exactly what I did to get rid of it...
**EDIT***
just remembered! It was when I turned notifications off. Try switching Notifications back on. should fix it.
From the Drop Down, Choose Notification
-slide down the status bar
-find the notification toggle
-be sure it is activated (toggle should be green)
-done!
I too had your problem, I thought I could upgrade my phone lol sadly I was mistaken.
I do think that the icon could have been of a better design and as such more understandable.

I have the exact same icon on my Samsung Galaxy Note w/ ICS. I do not have a "Notifications" toggle, nor can I see where any of my notifications have been turned off.
Thoughts for me?

Status icons on top bar

Hey guys, two questions. One, why do I have so many status icons on the right side of the status bar, and how do I get rid of them. And two. Can anyone tell me what the icon is between the GPS location and vibrate icon. I can't find the meaning anywhere. Thanks

Hmmm
You can get rid of the most icons but not all.
Lets start from the left side of the notification bar.
1. Saver- You can turn off the saver and the icon will go.
2. then You have taken a screenshot , so You clear it by pulling down the notification bar and clearing it.
3. then You are using facebook messenger the would remain their or simply drag down Your chat and the icon would go (Your chat would go)
4. You can turn off Your location services and the pointer icon will go.
5. You can turn off You NFC when not needed and its icon will also go
6. And among the rest , You cant get rid of the profile icon nor the signals but yes You can turn off the battery percentage ( but percentage really helps).
I guess i didnt help You much
sorry
This was a lot of help! Why would I need NFC on anyway?
