[Q] Need help identifiing an indicator icon in the notification Bar - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Since this morning, I've got a new indicator icon in my notification bar (at the upper left corner, the arrow with a minus sign in it, see this screenshot :https://www.dropbox.com/s/e68h3jsh9nc0m6v/2012-06-11 21.10.50.png).
Does someone know where it comes from ? I thought at "Ring scheduler", but this isn't the usual ring scheduler icon :-(
Thanks Seb

This is the icon for "notifications disabled", it simply hides the notifications. You can toggle this behavior in the shortcut list [next to energy saving, it's the letter "i" in a circle] when dragging down the notification bar.

Can't see the pic for sone reason but sounds like notification. Flick down the status bar and turn notifications back on.

Search is the only solution. Generally scanning the threads on the GS3 forums doesn't work. Too many official indian/UK/Australian/new Zealand/canadian/Singapore etc threads all over the place.

I have AT&T Note and it won't let me scroll left or right....I can't get rid of this "notification disabled" icon....any other suggestions? It disappears when I scroll the notifications down...and comes back on when I scroll it back up....

I have a mysterious icon on the notification bar.
A small padlock in the far right next to clock
Any ideas please?

Toggles in the notification bar

Is there an app to make my notification bar like the Samsung captivate with the toggles or with the themes for the atrix or am I waiting for true custom Roms?

Not gonna happen anytime soon, use the power widget from GingerBlur or GreyBlur. Same thing.

Not true! You can absolutely have customizable power control widget style toggles in your notification bar on any Atrix! http://goo.gl/EkXyx
i use widgetsoid.. I think it fits your needs but you must turn the popup on or it won't work.
That's something i needs. THanks much to hanming

Widgetsoid works well.
Getting toggles directly in the notification bar wont be possible until some custom roms start showing up, but in the meantime you can get quick access to them through the notifcation bar using QuickSettings. Basically it just adds another tap compared to a more integrated solution

So, we now have some roms and an unlocked bootloader. Has anyone thought about implementing this idea or design into any of the ROMs? I haven't seen it but that doesn't mean its not out there already and I just missed it.
Here are some reference pics that I am wondering about:

We have this on CM7.

Good to know, I haven't flashed cm7 on Atrix yet due to the lack of camera etc... I didn't see any ScreenShots of it so I just assumed it wasn't on there.

Ah ok, I cannot remember turning that off. And I also cannot find (also not on Google) where to turn it on again. Where is that option at? Thanks for your fast answer.

Xda notifications

On my previous phone I would get a brown Xda box appear in the notifications bar when someone would post on my thread etc however since getting my gs3 I haven't noticed that happen . Do I need to enable it etc or how do I get it.
thanks
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
have you enabled notifications?
never thought to actually chek but then i didnt ever enable it on my last phone.
Having just checked i can see the 'receive notification' box is ticked however not seen it show in bar yet, ill give it an hour and see
still not getting any notifications, boxes are ticked and its marked to check every 30mins
any ideas?
im sure you havent ticked this..just asking.is silent mode ticked? if not all that i can think of is a reinstall..im using gt-i9300 and i get notifications from the posts that i have subscribed to..
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Ok sky I have checked again and all the notifications settings seem to be right.
It's set to check ever 15mins, silent mode not ticked.
Is it because I am using stock jellybean Rom?
Also using Xda premium if that matters
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
it wont be a problem with the application..premium is always better..
it has to be the jellybean rom..it has quite a lot of bugs.
well ive now gone back to the stock rom (latest release) and still not getting them
just to be clear, i should be getting a notification in the notification bar when someone either messages me or posts on a thread i have created or have commented on right?
Is there something on the main site when i log in from my computer that i need to change? do i need to be logged out from my computer to get these?
what i mean is if i computer browser is set to log me in when i go onto the site (log me straight in / remember me) is this the problem?
I have them when either someone replies to a subscribed thread or when I receive pm. Are the threads in question subscribed threads?

Unidentifiable notification

Hello all,
Let me start by thanking everyone at XDA for all the help i have received here. Although my low posts numbers, i have been constantly learning from reading everyone's comments over the past years, flashing several phones...all with success (perhaps some luck too!)
So currently on my i9300, i am running omega Rom v13, siyah kernel 1.5.2. In the top left corner of the notification bar there is this symbol that resembles an "I" and a circle around it with a slash through it, kind like a no smoking symbol. For the life of me i haven't been able to figure it out, or how to disable it. If someone might be able to give me a kick in the right direction....it would be greatly appreciated. I hope the pic is visible...

You have disabled the notification alert.
You can enable it by pulling down the notification tray and tap the icon for notification toggle
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for the quick reply. When i drop the notification bar down, it stays up in the top corner. I still receive notification for all apps. I've tried tapping the symbol....nada. I'm trying to remember if it's been on the whole time since i flashed omega (fantastic!! Rom btw)
I can live with it being there, but it is a bit annoying and would like top stove the mystery. I'll keep playing around with notification settings for now....

Do u have the link for Siyah 1.5.2
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Ok.... am i crazy or could this actually make sense. The icon i think is the "no notification" symbol. But because i flashed the jelly bean leak a few days ago, which has a notification toggle in the drop down menu, then went to omega Rom (perhaps forgetting it was switched off)?? I have the 15 button toggle notification bar now..... but there is no "notification" toggle button to rectify the problem. Any ideas?? I haven't found anything in nova launcher setting, omega kitchen..... it would be a pain in the $$ to flash and restore everything just for that little icon. Otherwise running as smooth as butter.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I'm sure you can find the option somewhere in the setting.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Problem solved.
I flashed the .zip file to go back to stock toggle buttons which has the notification toggle, turned notifications on, then back to the 15 button one for omega.
Thanks.... life can pleasantly continue with my sgs3.

When you set up options under weather unchecked metric. Then once you activate it touch the weather section to refresh.

Wallpaper link/upload? Thanks! It's awesome!
I am not completely certain on the source here, but believe it may have come from Zedge originally.
DashClock is also compatible with the S4 since it is running 4.2.+. Similar to cLock and has a fairly good amount of extensions/plugins for various notifications.
Thanks for posting the wallpaper. That one looks good on a lock screen.
Is there any way to use lockscreen widgets with security?
