What is the compass-shaped icon in the HTC Sense notification bar?

This is going to seem like a dumb question, but it's been killing me and I just have to know. I've tried searching around for the answer but haven't been able to formulate the proper search terms to find anything.
Anyway, what is that compass-shaped icon in the notification bar when you are running Sense? No non-Sense builds seem to have it. I've circled it in this image:

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Thanks in advance for satisfying my curiosity.

You could have found out what it is in the EVOs manual.

Its in your settings. right below accounts and sync. You gotta put time into your phone bro.

I use a widget to turn it on and off.

Damn, I went through the manual before posting and missed it. Sorry. Well, thanks for the answers guys.

Is there a way to hide that icon? I really already know if its on or off because what I set it at I don't need to see it every time I read the top bar of my phone.

Question. What rom/task bar is this?

I always seen screen shots that have THIS task bar at the top there. What rom/task bar is that?
I'm wondering if its a specific rom for a certain phone or a bar that can be put on any phone. It's very clear, easy to see etc.

It could be a port, I might be wrong though but it might be another phone completely. I've never seen any Evo Rom with that notification bar.

It's the stock Android status bar pre-Gingerbread (Froyo, Eclair, Donut, etc.). The CM6 final (Froyo) ROM is the best ROM for that (but it wouldn't be too tough to replace the assets on any ROM).

I believe that is the default stock from google android taskbar on 2.2 and below
im unsure what rom would have that though
Edit: lol too slow...

AOSP signal & WiFi icons in status bar?

Not a fan of the broken lined signal or WiFi icons. I much prefer stock Android's filled out white icons. Any simple way to fix that? Thought I saw a screenshot where someone had theirs setup like that, but can no longer find it.

I have never seen a wifi signal before, i have unlimited data so no need for it. Send a pic

Sorry for bumping this old thread but can anyone give me information on how to do this?
Just got my HTC 10 the other day and seems I'll be needing to root this phone to get rid of some minor issues.
