What are these icons in notification bar? - Sprint HTC One (M8)

Really confused on the icon on the left, I'm guessing it's some kind of headset on notification? Not sure what the one on the right is either. Also if anyone could provide steps to remove them that'd be great

Not sure about the one on the left but the one on the right is the NFC icon. You can turn NFC off in settings and the icon will go away.

Alright, figured out the one on the right is NFC. Still at a loss for the other one though.

Thanks Magnum, now for the mystery icon on the left. It looks like some kind of headset icon and it's been bothering me for weeks haha

Phone/settings uncheck "Hearing aid".

Is that somewhere under accessibility or sound?
Edit: found it, settings>call>hearing aid. Thanks for the help!

Neither.
Open phone app (like making a call) menu/settings.
About halfway down you'll see "Hearing Aid". Unchecked it.
Should be gone after that.
Edit: Happy to help.

Removal of Bluetooth Icon at top Task Bar

Anyone notice the annoying Bluetooth Icon located at the top Start bar?
It shows when you have BT turned on. The icon absolutely does nothing other than telling you that you have BT on, which is easily checked by going to Comm Manager!
It is a total waste of space and sometimes it conflicts with ur AD2P headphones logo.
This has never been on any other WM devices that I have had before.
I tried looking at the registry but no luck!
Anyone? Thx
no one cares or no one else find it annoying?
No it's easy, there are no led's on the diamond so i like it

I understand. But it somehow mixes with the AD2P Stereo icon and when there is a message or missed call, the icon will turn into the "notifier" icon. That means I have to click it before I know if I've got a sms or missed call!
Still no like? Can any of you pros give me a hand pls...
I have looked through the registry for many times but no luck still. someone help please...

haha, same with me - I used to have the icons (bt, headphones, etc) but now I don't have them anymore... I assume it happened after I installed S2U2?
I'm not pretty sure...

What is S2U2?
I have installed some software but i adviced the problem about the icon some day ago, the first time i switched on the BT.
I dont notice a conflict with any other icon, but its a shame that you cannot toggle the bluetooth status by tapping the icon. Its just an indicator (due to lack of LED light) that serves no other purpose.

Same here, I'm just missing the BT icon... and I can't get it back
I like to see when BT is on or off because I toggle the BT with long press on the answer key...
I can't remember when it got lost but I have S2U2 installed...
Any answers to the big question how to toggle the icon?
Restore Bluetooth Icon Help Please
Could it be that one of the tweak apps that we have all installed has removed this icon. But which one and how? I miss it, as I want to know if I've left BT on my mistake, to preserve battery life.
Mine has disappeared too and I want it back. Also installed S2U2 as well as a couple of other tweaks. Not quite sure when it went missing though.
Have you disabled the phone skin or are you using a custom rom with the phone skin disabled ? If yes you loose the BT icon.
Yes, I did disable the skin. Turned it back on and the BT symbol is back again. Thanks for that
Seems a bit daft that the BT symbol would be linked to the phone skin though.

Problem solved, well done!
how to activate phone skin? =/
I dont think the headset and bluetooth icons are conflicting, more that it's showing that you have a headset connected via bluetooth (the bluetooth icon is inside the headset one).
I personally don't mind it but it would be nice to at least have the option to hide it.
heh, some like the icon, some hate the icon....
i find it annoying. even though it's nice to know whether bt is on or off, there's just too little space up there. and if you have reminders or new sms, those things get bundled into one "notification" icon, which you need to click to see what's hiding there... and that's the annoying part
I'd prefer to hide the new message / missed cal icons, as they are already on the TF3D today screen, and I never click on those icons. This way we could keep the bluetooth and AD2P icons. The task bar should be only for "system" icons
Anyone found a way to have the Bluetooth & Headset icons visible even after disabling the HTC Dialer Skin?

hmmmm try restarting/kill your statusbar (dont worry it will come back after about 6 seconds!) if that didnt work try reinstalling your rom. you dont have to reinstall it if you dont want to it.but works for me.
or wipe your cache in xrecovery.
i await a reply if any of those works

I have a similar but peculiar case. An icon appears in the right hand side, just before signals or data. I cant say for sure. It appears and then suddenly disappears. I know it does because the the icon to the left of it is moved for a split second.
There's not enough time to see what the icon is, but there certainly is something. Have you guys noticed this?
or
Am I seeing things?

android beam. you can turn it off by clicking on NFC in notification tab, or adjusting it in settings

It's the NFC icon when you press it twice in the notification bar. It means that android beam is on.
Thanks guys. Must have miss clicked it while talking.

[Q] N looking icon on the task bar of ATT Galaxy Note 3

It's just to the left of the 4G. Looks like an N made of wires. There is no way to pull it down. I have tried to attach a screen shot.

As already said, that lets you know your NFC tag reader is turned on. Just pull down from the top of the screen, tap the gear, and scroll down to NFC to turn it off if you want to.
If you use NFC a lot. And hate the extra icon, you can disable the icon using wanam

Custom quick settings (no root required)

I stumbled across a custom quick setting app yesterday and I thought it was worth sharing. It's kinda limited at the moment but you can change tiles, hide status bar icons and enable percentage in the status bar battery icon.

The app does allow you to add a custom tile though, which is more than you can do with the system ui page. Hopefully it gets more features soon.
I'm on stock and neither of these work for me.

Did you hold down the cog at the top of the quick settings pulldown, if it's active you should have a little spanner next to it.

Yeah holding down on the settings great does nothing for me.
I need to get did of that stupid do not disturb option that's there.
Very annoying

Worked for me although I had to try holding the cog down twice before it opened up the options in the settings.thanks for sharing the secret!

make sure you hold it down in the center of the cog and I would give it like a good ten or twenty seconds if need be. Mine took two tries and then it worked perfectly.
Still no go..
I'm using a rro layers theme but don't see how that can effect it.
You have to hold it down for a while. I did it for 10 seconds.
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
Makes no sense why this doesnt work for me..Guess I'll just wait for the settings in a custom ROM or something.
The cog actually spins under your finger, use a stylus or something that will allow you to see the cog whilst you press it.

Do you have a little wrench near the cog? If you do, it's already enabled. Then, go into settings and scroll to the bottom.
ill give it a shot but none of that is there...no wrench and no action when holding.
also make sure you dont have animations in dev settings turned off. animations must be on for it to work.

You dont actually need this app. If you hold down the gear in the top right of the drop down for about 5 seconds it will have a pop up saying you enable the additional settings. there is additional menu in settings now. Best feature is being able to see battery percentage.
