Do you have GPS Status & Toolbox installed? If so, disable the notification icon from the app's settings.

Go to settings>location access and disable wifi/network location.
It won't go away, its E911, you can't turn it off. Used a mod to lose it.

Got a link to the mod?
This is annoying. It just came out of nowhere. Thanks for the responses guys.
This gets rid of the E911 icon and the 4G icon if connected to Wi-Fi

I'm running the EVO-NonSense ROM, and recently I've noticed that the 4g turns on every time I reboot my phone. Is there a way that I can disable this?
I'm also having skype start now too, I'd like to disable that as well.
That is usually caused by a 3rd party widget, be it SwitchPro or System Info Widget. Are you using either of those? In the past all I had to do was delete and reinstall and that problem went away.
I am not using either or those two or anything similar to my knowledge.
Well what widget are you using to turn on and off your 4G?
In the drag down of the notification bar, there is a 4g toggle. I use that to turn it off when it's turned on at startup.
Hmmm not sure then. Do you have beautiful widgets installed? Not sure if that has a 4G widget or not but thats the only other thing I can think of.

I am having the same problem with the g4 only on start up too.but I am Running Sprint lovers Rom.
Is this possible? There's an app called LEDs Hack in the market but it sucks.
If you use cm7, you can go into settings and disable every light that comes out of your phone, even tweak the dim/notification levels etc. I've yet to see an app in the market do this. Led hacks only kills the bottom lights on my evo I believe.

If you are using a sense rom, you can go to menu>settings >display>notification flash. Unchecked them all. I might imagine that you'd also have to disable settings in 3rd party apps, possibly.

Thanks, but for most apps you can only turn notifications on or off. You can't disable the flashing LED but leave notifications on.
Black electrical tape?
Lisa: Hey dad, that light says check engine...
Homer: Uh oh... the tape must have fallen off.... there, problem solved.
On my Nexus 4, there is stock app called "Sound Recorder" that I used to be able to enable/disable from app settings. There is no uninstall option. When enabled, it would add an icon to the app drawer and when disabled the icon would go away. Recently I tried enabling it and the icon did not show up in the app drawer. I've tried doing this several times and restarting as well. I'm rooted on stock 4.4.2. I'd like to get this app enabled again w/an icon. Anyone have any thoughts.

Try rebooting after you enable it.

I believe its a system app so I'm not sure how to reinstall it. I couldn't find it on Google Play.

How come I don't have this app, it was never there since the beginning and I'm on stock 4.4.2
Whenever I turn on my screen, there's a Location Found notification appearing on my lockscreen. Any clue how I can disable that?

Is the location switch in the drop done menu on /
if yes, then turn it off and the issue should stop.
If no, then you need to find which app is asking for a location fix. It could be weather app.

Definitely want to keep location settings on. Curious how I could tell what app is prompting the notification though.

what apps do you have that rely on location ?
try disabling one by one till the notification does not appear.
Do you have a partner as I use this to see where my wife is using the android built in app, and when I do this comes up on her phone, so maybe someone is checking up on you?

I've been setting up my essential phone and noticed a weird issue with quick settings toggles...I've reordered and removed some, yet hot spot won't go away.
I remove it, it shows removed, then if i close the area then reopen it, hot spot it back. Only happens with that one. Others have removed and stay removed, like location and cell data.
Am i only in this weird bug?
I'm also seeing this same issue on mine
I'm seeing the same thing. I'm also unable to create any app shortcuts – the long-press on the launcher just doesn't work. Works fine in every other app.
On the sprint version, it doesn't even have a toggle for that.

Yes it does. If you don't have it as an option, it hasn't been provisioned for your phone. Screenshot attached and yes I'm on Sprint

It's included in my current plan 10gb\mo. I think it's called unlimited freedom. Unlimited data,talk,text, and 10gb hotspot

Ok, I don't subscribe to it so it doesn't show for me, sprint has hidden it in the settings, it's still there and it works without subscription.

Could you help point out how you have hotspot working while it's hidden in settings?

Create a shortcut to it using your launcher, I'd suggest using Nova.

i'm doing this with nova launcher, however this should work with other launchers.
long press your home screen
go to widgets
nova widgets
drag activities to your homescreen
scroll down to settings
scroll down to tethering and portable hotspot, click it...
you now have access to the hidden tethering menu

It works with the default launcher as well. I haven't used it much, though, as I noticed it heats up the phone quite a bit.
Any way to being it back the icon to quick menu? It is very inconvenient to use an external app to bring up the shortcut.
