Hi when i 1st got my xperia z there was a icon on the top notification bar, can't remember what it was but i know it had 3 there for my network, but there isn't one any more, the phone is official 4.2.2 updated and rooted, there is no icon appearing for 3G/GSM etc is there anyway to turn these on....?
Which icon are you referring to, and what is the icon that you are seeing now?
See here for the list of the icons:

What i get at the moment is the Signal strength icon which sometime has a Small H with it, I also get the Wif and Battery Icon but i don't get, EDGE, 3G, Sending and downloading 3G data, Sending and downloading EDGE data,
I get all other notification icons appearing like email etc, but no Status Icons for 3G or Edge.
I just wondered if they had been turned off somewhere..? But i can't find any options for them. I dunno if they are in the build prop like the NFC icon i set this to true and that now appears.
Network icons:
H or H+: you're connected to 3.5G / UMTS network.
3G: you're connected to 3G network.
E: you're connected to EDGE network.
Each icon will appear depends on what network you're connected to. And they will NOT appear when you're connected to wifi.
About the data upstream / downstream indicators, look for small upwards and downwards triangle under the network icons (of course when you're not connected to wifi).

as the title suggests how come the 4g icon stays in the status bar. Even when not connected (Mobile data off)?
It always stays on.. on mine the lte icon is always on.. it doesn't mean its using it. just that you are in a 4g/4g lte/3g/2g area
so I am guessing when I move around it may go away?
Yeah, It stay on all the time indicating your in a 4G area. Little arched lines will radiate up from the top right of the 4G icon when you're using it.
Ok, could there be any more different connection icons on this phone? There is 3G, 3G in a circle, LTE, Spark Network star, spinning Spark Network star. Where is a break down of which connection icon means what? I'm guessing for the best mobile connection I want LTE with Spark Star?

3G = maybe 1X or dormant 3G
3G with circle = connected
3G with spinning circle data connected with activity
LTE = connected
LTE with Spark star = connected LTE Spark
LTE with spinning Spark star = active download/upload connection.

Is it possible for it to show the Lte symbol without the spark star if your not in a spark enabled market?

no I think its all or nothing... you get the LTE and Star no matter what type of LTE you have..
Thanks for xposed installer I got rid of all that and just have LTE with the 2 little arrows underneath it.. I also got rid of Nfc and Gps icons they drive me crazy.. lol
So this morning i noticed on my way to work that my cell network icon has a "!" mark next to it, with no indication of the connection type (LTE, H ect). at first i thought it was because i had no internet connection for some reason, however, when i pull the notification shade down i see the icon for network connection has the connection type (says LTE) as well as the "!". So the notification shade had LTE and the ! while the status bar icon only had the "!". I confirmed that access to the internet was fine by checking websites and running speed tests. Anyone experience this issue?

I did as I posted in my other thread about this. Now if there is a way to put my Preferred Network Type back to "Global" instead of LTE (recommend) I switched it because I thought I had no internet either until it showed LTE on the notification shade too.
Looks like it was a problem with tmobile this morning, back to normal now

Hello all,
I purchased Xperia z1 recently. Mobile is working nice. I got problem when I was on roaming when data is enabled.
Data connected symbol(E, 3G,H or H+) is overlapped by The roaming symbol (R). I can see only two down and up arrows which blinks while browsing.
I cant figure out if mobile is connected to 2G or 3G.
In samsung mobiles it shows data connected at left side of network signal and roaming icon as triangle.
Is there any solution for this?.
hello, how come the 3g / 4g icon etc, even if the connection is disabled, the two connection arrows disappear but the 3g / 4g remain, etc. to make understand. thank you.
