[Q] Number 1 in notification bar, how to remove it? - LG Optimus 2x

Hi guys,
Wondering if anyone can shed any light on this....
I have two lines with T-Mobile UK, one on my LG O2X and one with a desire.
Now, my Desire has CM7 so I don't have this issue and I don't get the issue with cm7 on the O2X but whenever I use a stock rom on my O2X I get a number 1 in the notification bar.
A little research points to this being down to having two lines and in the phone options I can pick which line I want to use.
I've rung T-Mobile and they don't know how to resolve it. I asked if they could un-associate the numbers but they dodged that question.
Anyway, the 1 in the notification bar just wont go away!!!! There's no way of turning the second line off, just the option to pick which line I want.
Anybody know how to turn this off?
Could this be a simple code I can tap in on the keypad?? It's so frustrating because I can't have many notifications without them all bunching up!!!
Thanks in advance.

I'm having this issue, too.
But I don't have two lines on my SIM card. That's weird. I had a Motorola Milestone with stock ROM and I never saw a number on my notification bar.
Something has to be done on the SIM card to delete the line 2 info (in my case).
Cheers!

Nexus One Screen Accuracy Issues

Hi
I purchased my AT&T 3G compatible Nexus One the first day it went on sale, I just updated to Froyo and I notice that sometimes my screen fails to respond. I have to power on and off my screen for the issue to go away. Some examples are when im typing and I hit and key and it chooses another one or i'm trying to scroll on the menu and even if im picking something from the top the phone highlights the menu icon at the bottom. Are this issue just with my phone? has anybody been able to fix this?, If i call HTC support and they send me and new phone will it have the same issues?
Please guys let me know... this is driving me crazy

the screen on this phone blows... plain and simple... you will just have to get used to it...
do you think i should get rid of it?
Hi,
Don't get rid of the phone. You don't have to reboot, just lock the screen by pressing the power button, then unlock it. I've had it a couple of times but it goes away when I do that.
Also, be aware that it's very sensitive to any part of your hand that might be leaning over the edge of the screen, or hovering over the touch buttons. For example if my finger is hovering over the home button but not touching it, and then I touch somewhere higher up on the screen, it may respond as if I had pressed menu.

So...are you saying we are holding the phone the wrong way? Lol.
the nexus has this issue with the screen. its not a big deal, just lock the screen and unlock it, it fixes the problem. its some kind of mis calibration issue. yeah it sucks, but not the end of the world. only takes 2 seconds to fix it.

Heehee. I guess Android isn't immune to that either. Nor is the EVO or Droid Incredible (not identical problems but they're still there). I think it's inevitable that as we try and jam more and more "magic" into a single unit, things start to crosstalk in unpredictable ways and glitches emerge.
I have to say, the touch-sensitive buttons on Milestone & N1 really throw off people who haven't used them before. If I pull up a picture or video and I'm showing it to someone, inevitably they clutch the phone with a finger on a touch button, and then I have to get them back into the app and explain what not to touch. That's one reason I'd rather have physical buttons such as on the Desire.
I have this touchscreen problem as well, and yes its a big deal for me! I spent $580.00 for this phone. This shouldnt be happening at all! I've tried all sorts of troubleshooting(deleting cache partition, updating to the latest froyo, restoring factory settings, tried without installing 3rd party softwares, etc..) before i finally came to the realization that this is a hardware issue. Ive tried narrowing down to possibly when and how it occurs, but you can't. It just happens when it happens. It's impossible to predict. When this problem occurs, watch closely to where the calibration is off. During the problem, the calibration is only off on the bottom half of the screen, more so close to the bottom right. The top part will work perfectly. You can test this out by swiping left to right or vice versa on the homescreen. This problem will also affect the Pinch-to-Zoom in Browser, and the ability to type correctly using the default keyboard or 3rd party's like Swype. I received an exchange thru HTC a couple days ago, and not only was this exact touchscreen issue prevalent in this unit, but also it suffered from the purplish screen tint. This issue seems to have existed since they first launched this phone, but for some reason there has been no fix for it. It's funny that the EVO received a software fix promptly after the issue was reported by many. Why not the N1?? Because it's hardware, that's why! Feature wise, this phone is by far my best PDA, I mean I really love this phone, but $580.00 is too much for such an issue to exist. I'm hoping that there's only a number of bad batches floating around. I would say, if i receive 4 exchanges, all with the same exact issue, i may look into a class action. I definitely wouldn't want to be stuck with this problem after my year warranty is up!
I haven't had the 'crazy screen' thing since FRF85B, I assumed they'd fixed it.
I haven't had it since upgraded to Froyo too
not hardware problem
I encounter this problem a couple of times and I tested two things: useing trackball I ran touch sens app and tested the touch sensor, it was fine, second I killed all apps using a task man and it fixed the issue. I am on froyo.
Sent by my Nexus one.
I experienced this yesterday for the first time on FRF91 (unrooted Stock build). I couldn't press the "enter" button on stock keyboard. It just kept choosing Delete instead. Lock/unlock screen via power button sorted it.
So the problem is still there in latest build of FroYo (for me anyhow!)
Anyone else?
I've had this problem ever since I got my N1. Sometimes made me want to switch back to my iPhone! Makes it a lot harder for my son (2 1/2) to use the phone too.
Seems reports are mixed to whether froyo fixes it or not. But it gives me hope. I've been using CM5.0.8, holding out for their final release but this gives me a reason to try MCR.
I have upgraded to FroYo FRF91 but still see the same issue.
Sometimes I face with the calibration's flaw for the left bottom corner of the touch screen.
What a shame I have paid 750$ here for this phone. I really love it but this flaw screwed up all the pleasure.

i have two n1, one has this problem occasionally, the other one never. Both run same kernel, rom and apps
A quick lock and unlock fixes the problem

So it is a hardware issue? Maybe we can get htc to replace our phones.
Well looks like I still have this issue with frf91.

i think no one really knows. Would be a strange hardware issue which can be fixed by locking and unlocking.

[Q] Strange Ringtone And General Phone Issue

Ok, first off I just want to say I have searched around the forums for a similar problem in hopes for a solution and to avoid reposting a question.
For information about my phone, see below the problem description.
Here is the problem:
This just started today, the phone will not play any ringtone or notification sound. I can confirm the speaker itself still works by playing music or choosing ringtones. Alarms do still work, just not call tones or notification tones(even using default ones).
Now that is only part of the problem, along with that, is the fact that when a text message is received, I can view it and dismiss it (Using Handcent as Default). But 30 seconds to a minute after getting the message, or usually while replying to it, the screen will go black and the capacitive buttons stay lit up. No button presses are registered and the only way to gain access into the phone is by removing the battery and putting it back in.
I am also not getting every message sent to me, some will come through while others don't.
Another unrelated issue:
If I wait an extended time between listening to music, usually 20+ hours, for the first minute or so I hear a little bit of static and then it clears up and doesn't happen until the next day.
Info about the phone:
I bought the phone new on eBay at the end of September, the 28th.
The only modification done to it is doing the latest VooDoo lagfix from the link below(I did this within two weeks of having the phone, and it worked fine):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=784170
Aside from that, the phone is completely stock running the latest OTA update.
I am using a GoPhone SIM card that has never given me any issues before.
Kernel Version: 2.6.29 voodoo_lagfix_3.0_v1.10
Firmware: 2.1-update1
Build: ECLAIR.UCJH7
Baseband: I897UCJH7
My Background
This is only my second Android phone, coming from the myTouch 3g. I have had the same SIM card for years. Now I have the Captivate, and this is the first time it has given me this kind of problem. I have experience flashing ROM's and all that, I just wanted to wait for an official update for the Captivate to see if GPS gets improved.
I hope I have provided enough information to diagnose the problem, let me know if there is anything else you need to know and thanks for your time.
Side note if this can't be resolved with you guys:
Would I be able to call up Samsung and get a replacement from them?

Probably why it was sold on Ebay in the first place. Just a shot in the dark, maybe the speaker connection is loose? There are a few threads about taking the phone apart if you are so inclined.
Can't see how it would be a warranty, you bought it through a third party. Could always try.

I did think something like that at first, but every other sound works fine and when it is supposed to(startup sounds, games, etc.). And I would think if it's a loose connection that shaking the phone or moving it around would make sound cut out, but it doesn't.
I figured the manufacturer warranty wouldn't apply, but I have gotten warranty replacements in the past on other electronics from eBay. So maybe a little fibbing will be in order to receive another unit.
I'm thinking it is something software, I have no clue what, I haven't made any major software additions or changes since yesterday. But if all else fails I will try changing to a different ROM and if that fails, get a replacement from Samsung.
I would try flashing again.....and running that kernel....kinda makes your phone far from stock...
For some reason the issue has stopped. I only did a few things, I powered off the phone, turned it on with the 3-button combo, and then restarted the phone from that menu. After the restart, I reassigned the notification tones and ringtones to what they were(my personal choices, not system sounds) and it seems to work.
I will probably wait a few days to see if it occurs again, and if it does, I will move on to a ROM from the Dev section because I am convinced its just some apps conflicting with each other.

I figured that was a minor modification, so i just counted it as stock, but I see what you're saying.

the number 1 on notifficatios screen

hello sorry for my bad inglish but que question is
today i flash my Optimus black to v10c open europe, to this point everything is ok, but in the screen i say a number 1 between signal icon, what the hell is this, if somebody can explain to me i say thank you very much ok good night everyone
It seems to be phone line, like LINE 1 or LINE 2, I have this when i still used old nokia phone. If there's no prob then just leave it or anyone know how to configure it?
is the same thing as with nova rom isn't it? couldn't find a way to disable it but is just for let you know if you're using "line 1" or "line 2" as lesp4ul said
Our stock rom [telcel-v10a] don't have that icon there and cm7 doesn't have it as well I think you should move to cm7

Sim card not inserted??

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this. Sometimes my phone will decide the sim card isn't in. Was in the middle of a call earlier when it went dead, looked at the screen and the sim icon was in the notification bar?
Anyone else??

Yeah, happened to me a maximum of 3 times now since owning the phone for about a month. Dunno whats the issue here is as It happens soo randomly. The good ole' Desire HD also had this issue.
This happens to me out of random too on both stock Sense and CM10 variant roms.

Speed Dial Still Not Available

I just got a replacement unit it from Handtec, load it up, still no option to use speed dial. Same thing with the first handset I had. I long press on the keypad and nothing happens. I know one person suggested factory reset to fix the issue (although doing that now after like 2 hours of setting the phone up isnt an enticing option). Has anyone else had issues with speed dial not being available? Any ideas how to resolve it?
Thanks
Well, you can add contact shortcuts on your desktop.
I also have no option of speed dialing, but I don't really need it.

Assuming you have a D5803 model running on FW .105 UK, I wouldn't know why that shouldn't work.
On FW .98 DE, however, it definitely does work. So, you might want to flash this FW to check it out.
You could use the exDialer app.
Yeah, I've tried other dialers but I don't love them. Can the Samsung Touchwiz dialer be used on Sony phones somehow?
I'm using FW .105, doesn't really make sense to go backwards for this. Maybe in the next update it'll get fixed or something? It's not any type of deal breaker, it's just annoying that something so basic doesnt work.
Just tried out a few dialers. EXDialer is nice, but it's almost offensive that he requires a 4 dollar donation or you get constant nagging. On principle I won't be using that. Dialer+ is like a disaster of too many things at once.
Nothing else seemed like a solid basic dialer, unless someone wants to make a recommendation.

Not a direct fix, but I use Nova Launcher. I've created a folder of quickdial contacts, and made it swipe to open. On-click is the phone, and the icon is phone, so it makes a nice little speed dialler from the home screen that looks like the standard phone.
