Hi people!
I've been seeing this icon for a while now and i would definitely like to know what it is and what it does.
sometimes like after a soft reset it's gone but then it just sits there...
[I have an image but i'm not allowed to post it 'cause I am a newb if a mod reads this, please remove the restriction so i can clarify things ]
please look at my account album to see what i mean for now
the icon basically is a square with what appear to be just random on and off pixels (maybe some kind of connectivity thing?)
but when the icon is gone, the spot where it's supposed to be just stays open, like, the other icons don't move to the right...
Does anyone know what this is?
Thanks! Pio
Maybe...
Based on my experiences, this could possibly be: -
1) The data connection icon being 'greyed out'. I had this twice, once when I went to my new network and they didn't provision data, and the other time when I forgot to pay my bill and they cut me off (!).
2) Something corrupting the volume icon. I had this once but couldn’t find out what caused it. It solved itself when I installed the Mystic Systems Dual Volume cab. Sorry, but can't find a link for it at the moment (at work).
EDIT - See foot of post #18 here: http://www.pocketpc.ch/htc-hd2-interface/74151-volume-changer-looks-like-win-3-1-a.html
Don't think that's it
thanks for the fast response Yorkshire Yellow
Going from your options I've enabled WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth, data connection etcetera, and I can see all the icons that Should be there, but still also the square..
I now have these icons:
Bluetooth (idle) - GPS (No sats) - WiFi (Connected with internet) - 3G (full connectivity) - The strange icon - and the 1-100% battery icon
however i do notice that I don't have a sound icon.. but I don't recall ever having one at all (have also tried muting the sound r going to vibrate mode but this doesn't affect the appearance of the icon at all..
I'll look for the app you suggested and try it out! thanks!
..
What is the difference between installing that cab and just turning the "Use single volume for ring/system" slider off in sound and display settings?
that at least doesn't work
Hi I am looking for a 'working' flight mod app or widget. I have used several so far but they are not turning off data. Its annoying at night when all is quiet at home to suddenly get a notification coming in. The little plane icon is usually there but the data is still on. So any thoughts on one that works on our phones with a rooted stock rom or modded rom? thanks
You can turn off "data" Settings in 4.2.2 (Settings > More.. > Mobile Network > untick Mobile data) or you can use the default Power Control widget to toggle data on and off..
if thats what you mean...

I'm using SwitchPro Widget setted up as notification panel toggles and it works fine except the torch.
OMG it does not work, didn't noticed before couse i usually untick wifi, data and sync before to set airplaneode on.
So any other app is working?
Thanks for the replies but the real issue still exists that even though the flight mode is activate in settings i am still getting SMS's and emails coming through and this morning when it was switched off there was no data at all coming through, maybe a reboot will fix a few things but that shouldnt be the case, should it?
I did a search for data switch apps and found one that switches off the data so that may do instead of a flight mode one. thanks again for your replies
Notification Toggle
Give it a go, it works

Hello thanks for amazing module, just got a suggestion, how about turn airplane mode when experiencing very poor signal?

Great idea, but we won't know if the signal is back to normal while airplane mode is ON .

Oh ya that's very true, I never thought of that, but then what about Turning Airplane mode ON, for a specific interval, then ON again to check whether the signal is better, if not then turn on Airplane Mode ON again... is that possible? Or maybe instead of saving battery it might end up draining it more?

Yep, it may drain more power that way and it may keep you unavailable on some periods when the signal is normal.
This app is extremely useful especially with the two whitelists. One thing I notice is when I have my wifi manually turned off already this module turns it back on each time I turn my screen back on.

Yeah i know, but why you would like to use the WiFi feature if you turn it off manually, we can remember the previous state of the WiFi while screen is going Off, but the delay that WiFi service may take to get fully activated may lead to wrong state report doing a fast screen Off/ON/Off.
Let take an example: if i have WiFi activated, and did a fast screen ON/Off, the saved state of WiFi may switch to deactivated because of the delay.
Any ideas are welcome.
When away from wifi I usually try to keep it turned off. The update seems to work perfectly for me now. Everything disconnects and reconnects lightning fast. Thanks @wanam you are the one of if not the best dev.

Thanks for the great module
It would be nice if you add an option for cheaking network activity(30 seconds for exemple)and if no network traffic is detected then turning off 3g or wifi.
See green power on playstore for more information
Searching for a way to activate 2g when connected to Wifi. Possible to implement it?

Android does that automatically by itself. Look at Settings > About phone > Status > mobile network state when Wifi is connected.
Not on mine device. Lg g3. Checked recently while connected to Wifi

I would recommend implement this option as well since it well check network activity with a customized threshold before disconnecting 3G
Thanks again for a useful module! Have used it and whatsapp messages don't come through. Just add that to the white list to make them work?
It is not stable on LG G2 mini, It reboots when the screen is off
Sounds like a good idea in theory, but I have found that switching to 2g when the screen is off with similar mods (like Gravity Box's Smart Radio) can make for an unpleasant call experience. I much prefer to just disable LTE when the screen is off and stay on 3g as the call quality on the 3g network is much better on the 3g network than on the 2g network, at least on T-Mobile US, anyway. I have found it to be of little difference in battery life between 3g and 2g networks, but I guess for some this may be useful.

Hello, I recently bought Redmi Note 11s to upgrade from my old Blackview which is running Android 7. After turning the phone on I updated to MIUI 13.0.1 and debloated the phone using UAD. As a side note I don't think debloating is related to this at all.
Now my issue with the phone is that I don't get proper notifications, it's really easy to miss phone calls or messages because there is no blinking notification. My phone usually is in silent mode and often I just leave my phone on my desk. AOD also doesn't work as it should, what I mean by that is that it should stay on when call is missed or if there is a message that is unseen. It doesn't do that.
I can have AOD working if I disable MIUI optimizations but that is not ideal, nor I actually want my screen to always be turned on and draining battery. I did try using black background with everything disabled, so it would only show white thingy on the screen when there are notifications. Which worked alright, but battery seems to be draining quite a bit faster with MIUI optimizations disabled.
Also I don't like the idea of using third party apps to be able to get some sort of better notifications, on top of that third party apps really want to collect a lot of your data which is silly. I am not a dev or anything but I would assume such apps should only be allowed to add notifications based on information what is given by notifications service in the phone. And it shouldn't have access to individual apps that receive messages or phone calls.
As for pop up / floating window notifications, these don't seem to work at all with MIUI 13.0.1.
Any ideas and suggestions are welcome.
How did you figure it out. I also need notifications on the lock screen, but I haven't found a workable and reliable solution yet
I had the same problem, it's strange that since there is an option to turn on the Notification Effect in the settings, it will only work once (it's some software junk)
So I installed LED Blinker Notification - and even that works, I tested NotifyBuddy but the first one suited me better.
I've had the N2 for 3 months now and the only time the notification icons were showing is the first day if I remember correctly. The option is turned on but I still have only Omoji, time, date and battery % showing up. Is anyone else having this weird issue?
I already coped with missing a bunch of notifications from most apps because I guess that's how the dumb Chinese rom works but not having my always on display working properly is quite annoying
AoD just worked for Chinese apps on Oppo find N2 unfortunately
