I've lost some indicators!
The sound/volume indicator and the battery indicator appear to be blocked by some blue bar the same colour as the Start bar. It seems to be on top of the indicators. If I click where the indicators are, they work, but still remain hidden. It also covers half of my signal indicator.
I am not running any tweaks and have not changed the ROM either. Software is nothing more unusual than a few commercial games and Opera mobile. Nothing fishy there.
I have tried changing the orientation of the screen, but it's the same problem. It also happens away from the Today screen. Even in the messaging app.
Help! Please!

I just installed pocket plus 3.1.2 on my Cingular 8125.
Works great, but has anyone noticed little grey bars across the very top of their screen?
They appear above the bar of the start menu, but not over the windows icon in the top left.
I uninstalled pocket plus and they disappear, reinstall it and they're there again.
It almost looks like the screen is mis-aligned or something.
Can anyone help?
thatd be a battery meter.. lol
That is the indicator to show the battery status.as the battery gets decreases ,so does that bar and now that you know and find it useful you can keep or uncheck the option by going to the settings by clicking the spb plus icon on the left side of today plugin then uncheck ` task bar battery indicator' or something like that option .
thanks guys, I feel so stupid........
appreciate your responses!

Haha jeffreyapierce don't worry I thought the same thing when I installed it. As a matter of fact, I uninstalled it because of that bar and just realized like last month the bar is a battery meter and can be turned off.
Oh that's what that thing is. Been wondering that myself..... :roll:
At least I now know I can turn it off!!!!
I'll cough to not knowing that as well!
Thanks guys.
My unenlightenment went the other way. I once installed batti and could not find the bar. My battery was fully charged and my today plugin at the time was of the same color as the batti bar. I actually uninstalled and then reinstalled it trying to find the "bar" at the top of my screen. It wasn't until my battery drained a bit before I was able to see it. cough cough
got me too
when I first saw it I thought it was some kind of screen glitch. you are not alone.
I just find it amusing so many people didnt know what they were!
Hi, i got a problem with my Xperia and was wondering if im the only one... Its not major but its getting on my nerves... I get 2 battery indicators on my title bar... one next to the task manager (normal), and one on the leftmost side of any other icons present at any moment (bluetooth, wifi, etc)! I have SPB pocketplus installed (if it makes a difference i dont know), however i dont think this is the problem because when i restart my device, the second indicator is on the screen before pocketplus loads....
Anybody know what to do?
P.S Sometimes when i reset the phone, take out the battery for a while and pray it goes away.. but then after a while it comes back on!
This sounds like a software issue.
SPB PocketPlus includes a taskbar battery indicator. You need to turn this option off in from the systems tab under settings.
hi
the default battery indicator no longer updates. it only shows correct values after a soft reset, but stops after that.
any other bat indicators work perfectly
any ideas???
can it be removed or substituted with another icon?
thx
same problem here. Can't seem to find a way to remove it either. Tried the two registry setting, it only adds stuff, never deletes batter. tbopt=1,2,3,0 etc...
So this is what happened yesterday.
The battery was almost empty. I could get the message that the phone will shut down automatically. That empty. Then I wanted charge the phone, but when i putted the usb into the phone ,the phone shut down immediately.
After charging it up for a while I started the phone up again and since then the navigation bar buttons are showing as text in stead of circle and square. See the enclosed picture. I have no idea how to get it back. See the enclosed picture for the screenshot. It seems like the pictures are removed or something.
My phone is not rooted. Any ideas how to check what happened and get it back to circle and square without root?

That is very strange indeed.
Have you tried changing / experimenting with the settings for this feature?
Try it in Settings > Smart assistance > Navigation bar
Also, completely shutdown & reboot the phone a few times (not restarts).
If nothing helps, you may need to try a hard reset - but only do as a last resort & after a thorough backup.

Solved!
Changing the buttons in smart assistance > navitation bar didn't help. The buttons change from position but the text stays.
Reboot or shutdown and reboot didnt help either, BUT doing this after cleaning the cached data solved the problem.
Thanks! Now I don't have to hard reset.
hi..try to change the teme....you have installed a complete theme..and this cud changed the nav bar
Hello everyone, just received my essential phone couple of day ago. So far so good, but I have just a little issue that could sound a bit stupid but is driving me crazy: in my status bar the wifi icon and the data icon are inverted and I wasn't able to figure out why they switched position and how to restore it without a reset of the phone. Just take a look at the screenshot attached. Anyone know the solution? Thx
Inverted? Looks the same as mine.
When demo mode is ON you can see in the status bar that the icon are in the correct position (screenshot), just as any other Android device I have always used, don't know if it is an Android Pie change or it is just on Essential PH-1. It was just a matter of habit, good to know that is not an isolated bug, thank you for the answer.
I didn't notice mine inverted until the Pie upgrade. There is no changing it bruh. Drove me crazy too when I noticed it one day.
