Using the at&t i317, I'm seeing a strange icon in the notification/status bar. It's between the bluetooth and wifi icons and looks like a fancy letter "N" (dark stroke on white background.)
I don't think I've ever seen this notification icon before, and I'm pretty clueless as to what it is supposed to be indicating.
Any ideas?
thanks
Gary
Most likely the NFC indicator.
that is it. I can't believe that the US version wastes space up there with an icon for NFC. (The international version doesn't have this icon when NFC is enabled.)
Gary, what kernel did yours include, as far as date compiled?

it was the same kernel as the guy who got the AT&T version early (from the press thing.) I've already overwritten the kernel so I could pull recovery.img for CF.
That is stupid
I came here to these forums in search of this exact question, and now i am pissed. Why don't wouldn't be a notification icon on/off for everything?

FYI, I figured out how to disable this silly icon... it requires modifying the phone firmware, but it's a pretty trivial change. Posted the info in the themes subforum...

When this NFC is turned off to get rid of the icon then that means the beam won't work right?

I like having the "Display Clock on the Title Bar in all programs" option on, so I can keep an eye on the time no matter what is going on, but when using this option the "Battery Meeter" in the Title Bar disappears...I guess it's an either or thing...
Anyone know how to have both?

Flashing a custom WM6.5.x ROM would allow you to have both. Unfortunately, WM6.5 doesn't seem to support both icons in the taskbar at the same time.

There are some great apps that show the battery state across the top of the device as a colored line. Do a search on AvianWavesBattline for that one.
Or I recommend the BattClock program, which allows you to put up a lot of information in the taskbar.
I actually use both...

Cool! I've seen the AvianWavesBattline before, forgot about it, thanks! I have to look up the other one.
I use BattClock too and am happy with it - have it showing the time, battery % and free RAM.

Hello,
I'm wondering if there is a way to modify the notification icons like reordering it or adding new icons(ie driving mode) to it.

Are you talking about the status bar icons like wifi, 3g, and time or the notification that pop up from different apps that your using??

Its the notification/status when you pull down and you have the wifi, gps, bluetooth, screenrotation that you can toggle on/off.
If your referring to the icons in the drop down menu yes you can reorder them and choose which ones you want to show by simply going to quick settings if you are rooted.

Yes I'm rooted but I can't find this quick setting. Also how would I added say some icon that isn't there ie car/driving mode.

It has to be built into the rom for you to be able to customize it through a UI...otherwise you would have to go into the code itself and add it manually

I'm not running any rom, my phone is stock but just rooted. I also don't mind going into the code and doing it there if someone would point me in the right direction.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2210942
Can anybody point me in the right direction for editing the power toggles in the notification bar? I've noticed that the galaxy S4 from T-mobile has the data toggle removed and i would like to add it back so that i completely eliminate the need to install 3rd party apps just for that toggle. If anybody knows what files i need to edit or a link to a good guide for this phone, i would greatly appreciate it, have a good day and thanks in advance for anybody helping.
PS - If i manage to get this done, i might even make a flashable zip with that addition included.
I would love to see that

I think some of the custom TW ROMs have the data toggle added back in if I'm not mistaken. So you might just be able to pull the elements form another ROM and insert them into the stock one. (Or just flash one of the custom ROMs)
Cyaogen definitely has it included so if you can,t find it pure made for the stock TW ROM you can at least get the elements you'd need from CM.
Good luck!

Any mea rom has it

Thank you guys for all of your suggestions. After a while, this was posted on the development section... apparently many people were asking for the same thing. Now i just need to dissect some roms and find the keywords used to add the other toggles...

The other toggle you can include is the " Brightness; "
The Brightness toggle is excellent, it's not how it used to be where it was off/on/auto etc.
This one displays a slider with auto option in it.............
Really nice!

I Am trying to get rid of the original brightness slider bar beneath the toggles...........
If anyone knows a way to remove it I would appreciate it a lot.

To turn that slider off, just go to Settings>My Device>Display>Notification Panel>Brightness adjustment (unchecked)
Eureka!!! i found the last missing toggle... the tethering toggle... it's added with "WiFiHotspot;"
I can't be the only one this eyesore bugs. Is there a way remove or mask it?

lol No, I'm talking about the shadow at the bottom not the icons. I guess the screenshot isn't showing my issue off very well.
To see the shadowing one must turn the brightness to the max. I don't know how to get rid of it. I know I don't have it but I am in Nougat. And not so many icons can be presented at once.

Screenshot does show it quite well, I see what you mean. I guess it may look different on different screens ... and eyes [emoji14]
That said, I don't know how to fix it. Maybe try looking at some Xposed modules (you are running Marshmallow, right?)
Sent from my OnePlus 3 using Tapatalk
use transparent pulldown menu, might look better than.
I wanna do what it says up there^
Or customize it.
This had been universally easy on Samsung devices and pre-marshmallow... But I've had no luck with any Xposed module yet. Tried the regulars, gravity box, wanam, firefds, x-blast, and a few moto-x modules.
My absolute last option will be to do a regex replacement for anything that says SPRINT but ughhh, that's like killing a squirrel with a 44 magnum.
Anybody able to point me to a more surgical method of this?
...(fear I might be stuck with heinous notification icons and carrier text in the bar until custom ROMs like RR hit the goop)

If you're talking about removing the carrier label you can do that from the settings of the phone
Flat style bar indicators will let you change the text, size and shape of literally every element of your status bar.
