[Q] What is this ICON on the status bar? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

It is always there to the left of my Wifi icon or 4G/lte icon and it looks like an N.
It has been killing me trying to figure out what that is.

Actually I have tried google. Didn't work out for me. Asking was waaaaaaaaayyyy faster. I even tried to look at the full phone manual, but couldn't find it.

This icon?

Can you explain to me what's NFC? ... Sorry kidding...
I knew this should be covered already but didn't know how to search an icon... I over complicated it by thinking is something I installed and never occurred to me that it was a system icon...
Never saw this icon on either the Galaxy nexus or the OneX
thanks
Hmmmm I didnt know google dosent work.....

notification icon?

i circled an icon in the screenshot attached. for the life of me i cant figure out what it's for. it shouldn't bother me but it does for some reason. does anyone know what its for? it must have something to do with networking because it goes away in airplane mode.

Its the NFC icon should go away when you turn off NFC you can find it under the Wireless and Network options.

Lower case (i) in a circle crossed out icon ?

Last night I saw this icon twice the only way I was able to get rid of it was once I rebooted my phone. Also with the icon in place I wasnt able to pull down notification bar nor take screenshot pic. Very weird and confusing , does anyone know the cause of that icon being in place ?? Anyone else gone through same situation ? Thanks guys

Hmmmmm its the only one I know for sure with that symbol. Im looking on google though. What apps have you installed? If it does it again, what happenes when you drop down the status bar and click it?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
I did notice that it sort of happened after my apps automatically updated and one of those was busy box not sure if thats the case. But when it did happen I wasnt able to drop down my notification bar at all till I rebooted the phone , and I use busy box for wifi tether only . I had simplistic control app installed but uninstalled it since it didnt work

Well its not a stock samsung icon unless you were mistaken. Are you sure it wasnt one of these? If not, its definitely a different app you installed somewhere along the line.

Crazy. And you checked in settings/ application manager for trickster mod? Make sure you look under all applications.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
Just checked and no trickster mod. Im guessing it has to be an app I have installed, going to have to figure it out if I get it again . Thanks by the way

No problem. If it pops up again, select it from the status bar. If we're lucky, it will open the app up that it belongs to.

I got something similar the other night. Pulled it down and it was a severe weather warning. Not sure if it was from tmobile or hd widgets (the weather part).

It mean that your notifications are turned off
Yea I realized that but there was no option to turn notifications back on,

Navbar

So I made a switch from rootbox to hyperdrive, and I like it. Tw is pretty good. I'm missing a few things though I got accustomed to.
Is there a way to get the nav bar enabled, and maybe even rings? It made it so easy to access my messages or phone from any screen.

Bump? Or perhaps a point to something similar in regards to this feature?

Nobody has ever wanted this before? There must be some kind of request
Sent from my SGH-T999 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
get XPosed Framework, i know one of the mods (don't remember which one now) allows you to enable navbar. i'm not sure if it has the rings though.
Can you point me to the module?
