I can't figure out the icon to the right of the Smart stay icon? Does anyone know what it is or what it does?

Unfortunately it's not, it's something else and it's not an icon in the manual.

It isn't GPS, it's for e911. And it can't be turned off if the OP is curious.

The symbol stands for:Location E911: Indicates Global Positioning Service (GPS)
for 911 is set to On for emergency calls only

if you go to Settings, More, About you will see the menu item called Icon Glossary.. all the icons are explained there.. and don't share this with att friends.. it's not there.. apparently.. How does verizon get this cool little detail right and miss so many other things?

Is there a way to suppress this icon from displaying while leaving the e911 service active? I was able to do so on my samsung droid charge (2 phones ago) and would like to do the same with my new S4.

Wondering if anyone knows where I can obtain a utility or hack to adjust the automatic brightness settings? In a dark or dim room, the brightness on auto is much higher than I need.
There were a few hacks available for windows smartphones to do this, but I haven't found any for Android/HTC. Found one specifically for the droid-x but don't think it works for us.
Been wondering on something like this also

CM7 has options to fine tune how auto brightness works.
^ Shift Faced
confirmed to work for me. I've adjusted mine in CM7 just the way I like.
Question to somebody else who has done it. Is it showing 1 colum having -1 on the buttons box? I noticed only one setting I cant turn off the 4 bottom lights because it doesnt let you change the -1 to a 0...
is there any guides i could read on how to set it all up? i have no idea what everything mean in that menu.

I'm right along with you. I just looked at it and then slowly backed out because I didn't want to mess anything up and I'm usually all for pressing buttons to see what happens.

I'll bump for this as well. I've always wanted to understand how to adjust the auto brightness in CM7, but I've searched around and haven't found any info on it.

2 completely different apps.
in tapatalk, you go into settings, and hit Tapatalk signature set it to NONE
in mail, look in the settings and you will find the option to turn off the signature or set it to whatever you like
that being said, which one are you looking for?

It was really annoying me so I did some searching and I found this thread.

Basically if you use titanium back up, you can just freeze or delete "com.htc.htcpowermanager" and it'll disappear.
I just thought I'd share with you guys, credit goes to to the guy who found this in the link above, I'm just passing it on.
EDIT: Freezing or deleting it will both cause your battery menu in settings to disappear. This isn't really an issue to me as there isn't really anything in there that you can do, besides see whats' eating your battery. IMO this is negligible especially when new roms will be rolling out soon, hopefully with a work around.
Wouldn't delete it just in u may need it later. Freezing is the best option for all annoying system apps. Thanks for sharing the link tho.

Read the edit I just made to the OP.
In JB you can long-tap on a notification and click on App Info. I did a Force Stop there, notification went away. Hopefully there are no other side effects. If there are any, I will report them.
LOL 5 minutes later, and it's back. And you cannot uncheck "Show Notifications"
I used this to get rid of mine. Think its a good alternative.

I have had mine turned off since I loaded the Rom and its still there. If we could just unlock the show notification option maybe that would turn off the one minor annoyance.
Is there documentation on what the power saver function specifically does?

Same here. I'm mostly against it because I don't know why I'd ever need it. It might actually be useful but if it does x y and z and I only want x and y I'd like to know what I'm getting into.
I can't believe no one noticed it yet but if you go to the app info there is a check box for notifications, just uncheck it and it goes away

Mine won't toggle neither. I have tried with power save mode enabled and disabled as well as from safe mode.
That's the first place I went and mine is grayed out also.
Im new to verizon and the s4, just switched from Sprint note 2. I've looked at the icon glossary and the tiny manuals that come with the phone and I haven't found what this icon is nor a way to turn it off any help? It's a rombus with a cross through it next to the Wi-Fi symbol

More specifically, the E911 location icon. While you can't disable E911 location, you can disable the icon either by flashing a custom ROM or flashing a mod to hide the icon (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41976357)

I really hate it when someone does that, or puts something up that doesn't help the person with the problem. You can look at a post I made and see the very non helpful answer I got from some joker.

I tried 2 profiles so far and they both don't work. The "lockscreen off when connected to certain wifi" and the "turn wifi on when near a specific cell tower". I follow video guides for both, and they're simple enough, that I don't believe I made any mistakes. Yet, they're not working.
Am I doing something wrong? Is there a setting I need to enable first?
Did our install secure setting and it's helper?

I created a profile in tasker. This should work but I have not tested it.
You will need to import the project.
- press/hold home button in tasked
- click import: pattern
- click untrusted
- not WiFi connected
- ssid: "input wireless network name"
- click trusted
- not WiFi connected
- ssid : "Input wireless network name"
- turn both profiles on
Hope that works

Hmm. I'll have to look into that one. But I use Automateit instead. So far I really like it, I feel it's got a more user friendly interface than tasker, but my only complaint is that when I set it to silence my phone at work, and at the end of the day it sets the volume back, text messages are still silent, so it takes a reboot to get it back. So I just set it to reboot 1 minute after the sound is set to turn back on.

I'm sorry, but Llama is in no way more powerful.
It may be easier to use, but as far as power goes, Tasker has much more. It has the ability to do more things based on more "states".
