Lower case (i) in a circle crossed out icon ? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

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?

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).

I also have BW clock and weather them . so not really positive

It mean that your notifications are turned off

Yea I realized that but there was no option to turn notifications back on,

Is google wallet safe to use, what if you lose your phone. Can someone access your credit card info?

Google wallet is locked, in that everytime you open the app, you need to input your password. So unless they know the pin, they won't have access. Additionally, you can set up an additional screen lock pin.
worked like a charm

It's part of ICS. Was a little odd to see at first, but a handy way of switching keyboards. I suggest you get used to it cause future versions might still have this as part of the OS.

Just search the threads for how to root your phone. Its easy takes about 10-15 minutes not even. Then after you have root, download the app from the play store and uninstall anything you want, just be careful not to uninstall the wrong thing.

Unknown Icon Notification

So I get this icon that shows my CPU usage and battery that appeared randomly on my notification bar. I'm not sure how it got there but I'm quite used to it now and like the looks of it. Does anyone know how to enable or disable it just incase it goes away on it's own? Or should I be aware of it because it can be a harmful third party app?

Are you using any 3rd party app that monitor your cpu status ect.? I know when I used "Quick System Info" app I had the option to shows those info on my status bar.
Does it also show in the drop down panel? If it does long press on it and chose "App info".

Open your notifications and tap and hold the notification then click app info.
Nothing shows when I drag the notification bar but the same thing it does now. It covers my icons under it and if I were to be on Youtube watching a video on fullscreen it still shows. I haven't installed anything in about a week either. I don't want to take it to T-Mobile and ask since my phones rooted also

Can you provide a list of apps that you have installed? It would help narrow down which programs have the permission to draw overlays and that would likely reveal the culprit. Also, have you tried disabling the Xposed framework to make sure it's not one of the modules you installed (doubt it, but worth the trouble)?

You've installed something recently or changed an app's settings recently. That is an output from a monitoring app. CPU, GPU, or something of that sort.
You need to check that app(s) and uncheck whatever seems to point to showing it.
