Strange icon in notifications bar. - LG Optimus 2x

I have a white "1" symbol in a grey box in my notification bar.
Ive had the phone for just over a week and im sure its been there the whole time.
Its not a calendar notification (colour of icon is wrong) as I havent used the calendar.
The manual for the phone doesnt list this icon at all.
An old thread elsewhere suggested it might by a telephone line indicator. I have a bog standard Virgin contract...nothing special there. So I doubt its that.
Does anyone have any ideas. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I have seen this when you have two phones with the same or cloned sim card

How to replace the ugly 3G icon?

I just got the Kaiser and noticed that the 3G icon looks awful. It's like it's stretched both vertically and horizontally or something. I have a Hermes 200 with one of the latest cooked ROMs on which the icon looked good. If I could move that over from one to the other, would be perfect!
do a search for "clean 3g icon"
I did that and found one thread that was for the Hermes at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=315047
I was hesitant because it's not for this unit. At the end I installed it and now it looks better, but also replaced all the icons in the call history for incoming and outgoing calls which I am not a big fan of. The original ones were much better.
Can anyone post their phcanOverbmp.dll from a cooked rom like Sleuth's which has the updated 3G icon? That would probably work the best.

Install the Sdkcets.cab first then install the other one.
That's it! Great, thanks.
Just out of curiosity, is there one where the battery icon shows the percentage like this one, but it's still white? I think the green icon draws too much attention when there is no need for it. What would have made the most sense to me is for the battery icon to be white until it hits around 25%, change to yellow and at 10% change to red. Wishful thinking LOL.
Thanks again for the file.
hmm...while on this subject...id like to replace the "E" icon with the 3G icon....possible?
Hi, you can get the battery icons with white colour here:

It's an international forum. We're busy during the day on Saturdays, but its night time for others, sitting at home one XDA before an hour before bed. Enjoy XDA.
But hey, hesitation stops you from enjoying wonders of the world. For XDA's theres always a hard reset.
I use a version of the battery icons created by Schen, as I prefer the slightly larger numbers to the one used by most people. What I want to know is if anyone has modified these since the Hermes days, as we can now get battery %ages in individual steps rather than blocks of 10%.
The one I use at the moment shows 100% until I get to 90, then 90% until I get down to 80 and so on.
If this has not been done - is it possible?
you all will probably think im crazy. but, does anyone have a cab for the "ugly" 3G icon everyone seems to dislike. i like it better, but i have found that every rom i flash has this "updated", better icon it would be greatly appreciated. i have a network settings cab that does it for me. but, it changes my connection settings which i dont like. if someone could extract just the icon change and make it a cab, it would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!! THANKS!!

slide2unlock and Call Display

I'm using the latest version of Slide2Unlock found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=381588
Tried asking my question there, but no responses so far so I thought I'd ask in the Kaiser specific forum.
Everything seems to be working fine except when I get a call from someone in my contacts, it displays only the Number instead of their name. Anyone know how to fix this to get their name to be displayed instead?
Thanks.
I had that same problem before and it was because my contact list was from my SIM card and not the phone's memory. I had to move all my SIM contacts to the phone memory and it was fixed. Hope that fixes your problem..
i am quite sure if you open the slide to unlock settings there is an option for how you want the contact to be displayed.

There is something to display how the number is displayed ie. (###) ###-#### or ###-###-###
I haven't come across anything that says whether or not to display the name of the contact. If you could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.

That could be the problem. All of my contacts are on my SIM card as I just got the phone about a week ago and haven't transferred them over yet. I'll see if that makes a difference. Thanks.
yeah, my contact names show up..... i am using S2U2 1.00 w/o any issues

Are your contacts from your SIM card or stored on your phone?
there is an option to 'enable caller id' this puts the contact picture on screen
Slide2Unlock which Ver????
I,m a noob and I read so much. But which version works 100% in a ATT Tilt with out a cooked ROM. I really like to know

1 new SMS in Today but not showing in SMS Inbox

As title really.
I currently show 1 new sms in the Today plugin and when I go to the messages section i see "Inbox (1)" but the inbox is empty. I have rebooted the phone and no diference. I know there is an sms as my alert sounded, just can't see it!
Currently running Diamond TLR build.
Any ideas?
I had a similar problem
I found a program called FixUnreadCount
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-fixunreadcount-v1-0.html
which seemed to do the trick
Cheers mate
stumbled across an even easier fix. If I change the sort order (the top right) it seems to show the sms..... very odd but easily worked-around.
w00t.,, glad i wasnt the only one with this issue.
The link above didnt work, so i searched the market & tried "ResetUnreadSMS" worked perfectly.
I did the #646* to check my minutes, the notification bar said i got the text, as well as my dock icon on GoLauncher, i even got the sound/vibe when it showed up.... but it wouldnt show in my inbox...
but everything is better now! HOORAY!

3G / Wifi status 'LED' on title bar

Hi there,
I'm looking for a little bit of software that can sit next to the battery status of the title bar, and flash when data is being uploaded or downloaded, maybe even with a little bar to show how much data is being sent. Seems like this would be a fairly standard thing, but I can't find anything along those lines.
Can anyone enlighten me?
Many thanks!
This idea I had long time ago. I am using BitMeter software to display actual traffic on my PC's,unfortunately there is no such app for PDA. I'll try to get informations about getting transfer data from network in eVC++ and I'll try to programm it myself.

[Q] unknown icon in statusbar

hi
I changed my cellular network provider today. after replacing the sim card, I now have a new icon in the status bar, which I do not know and can not find in the manual anywhere. Looks like a big 1, one. Any ideas? Thanks a lot for answering.
Use search is being discussed already in another thread already...
Sent from my blasting P970 with zeus
well, using search showed 2 completely different answers, number one indicating something to do with calendar, number two says, the icons shows the number of line ... which line, I don't know.
so I decided to ask a question to get an answer. thanks.

I think yo can disable that going to setting-call setting and search there because i have saw something like this on my setting . Disable it from there. I think that are networks with 2 lines you can select to call and be called, or something like that.
Is it possible that you have 2 different numbers for your phone?
Like a real mobile number and one thats for being called from the normal phones?
Like a local number, that is cheaper to be called instead of a real mobile number.
In germany it should be a number like 0xxxx-yyyyyy (where xxxx stands for your local number, e.g 08551 for me) instead of german mobile numbers that start with 01xx-xxxxxxxx (mostly 0170/0171/0151 or similar)...
As I got to know, that some contracts offer this option
It's number of line, u can change for number of line here

Ok, but do you have different numbers in one SIM card? Like I mentioned above?

NOP, I have only 1 number but many phones have this option, I don't know why.
PD. By the way, sorry about my english its really bad, but a try to do my best I can
Enviado desde mi LG-P970 usando Tapatalk
actually yes, it is possible to have 2 lines [diferent numbers] at the same sim, if your carrier can provide it
thanks a lot for all the answers and help.
I'm using a prepaid sim, which does not include an additional number, i.e. something like an extra "home zone number", which would enable cheaper calls in a defined local radius around your home. at least my provider did not tell me
thats number is for 1 Line, your SIM suport 2 lines, you can have 2 lines but ask your operator!!
