Hello everyone,
So I update my phone through kies last night (im not rooted). everything is running great. Just curious if anyone else out there is seeing the same thing I am. I was connected to wifi at my house and saw that I had the wifi symbol and 4g symbol both on the notification bar. the 4g symbol was greyed out tho.
thanks

It's a new "feature" in 4.4.2, once you disconnect from WiFi your 4G symbol won't be grey.

I unlocked the atrix and am using it here in ontario (Rogers)
with all android phones ive had, when turning on the wifi, the E, 3G, or H goes away
but with the atrix even with wifi on I still see an 'E' by my signal
is this normal? (do you all have it too)
Thanks guys
yes it is normal. it lets you know what network you will fall back on once you turn off your wifi.
how did you unlock?
hey man i unlocked it and now wifi is NOT working at all, so now i factory restored it and it still isnt working and i cant even activate the phone now... anyone had the same issue ?

You might have a problem. I don't really know too much but when you unlocked and factory restored,the phone might have been looking for a specific verification file or something that was deleted.

Your phone is set to GSM
Do this
@ Dialer
*#*#4636#*#*
Phone information
scroll down to Set preferred network type:
set it to WCDMA only
Then you will get 3G/H speeds

I have mine unlocked. Factory restored before and wifi is still working.
Hey guys, I am having serious network issues.
3G and 4G are not working at all, when im connected to wifi however the 3G icon turns on and is grey, once I turn wifi off it goes away.
Every now and then I get a blue 1X signal and it is connected.
It does not matter what ROM I am on it still does it.
I have my network set to GLOBAL. Ive tried all of the other ones and still no dice.
Thanks in advanced!

that could be your issue then. if you are verizon like your info shows, then you should be on LTE/CDMA/EvDo. set that, then try a reboot.

A full restore is the only fix.

I'm on that setting for the past 7 hours, restarted and still nothing :/
I also flashed stock 4.1.2 with the Batman utility and started fresh. I'm using Carbon now.
Would the "Network Operator" setting have something to do with this? When ever I go in there it just pulls up an error.

I get "error while searching for networks" - but no FC.
could have been a kernel issue for you then.

Same here...
I wonder if thats what is causing this somehow?
Here is a list of Verizon apns
APNs:
EHRPD - Verizon CBS
(VZWAPP)
EHRPD - Verizon FOTA
(VZWADMIN)
EHRPD - Verizon IMS
(VZWIMS)
EHRPD - Verizon Internet
(VZWINTERNET)
EHRPD - Verizon SUPL
(VZW800)
LTE - Verizon CBS
(VZWAPP)
LTE - Verizon FOTA
(VZWADMIN)
LTE - Verizon IMS
(VZWIMS)
LTE - Verizon Internet
(VZWINTERNET)
LTE - Verizon SUPL
(VZW800)
Tried removing my SIM card while my phone was powered off for about 30-60 seconds, it vibrated many times. Then I restarted my phone and it still won't connect to the mobile network.
So i feel like an idiot and i went through the online manual searching the "icon" and couldn't find this one.
I'm sitting in my office, WIFI is on but not connected, and i have 4GLTE going.
However next to the 4GLTE icon is an icon that is a house or "Home" with curved antenna bars above it. What is this? Is it basically telling me there are wifi networks available?
Thanks
Verizon G2 btw
Mind posting a picture of it?

Oh, you mean Verizon does? I don't know why they have to show it to me.
Weird...Thanks though!
Hmmm, I noticed that as well, but I can't remember where I was when I saw it - I know at the time I didn't imagine someone having a network extender there though.
It a network extender icon because it's what I have at home and I for the life of me didn't know what that icon was until I tried unplugging my extender and the icon disappeared. On my GNex it would show a R where the 3G/4G symbol was. Now this phone tells me my extender signal, my wifi signal and my 3G/4G signal at the same time. Love this phone. :good:
it's an extender that your building has bc you guys don't get good verizon service there..so someone got the extender which helps boost signal. home icon means network extender.
Hello, This may be a simple question, but it's puzzling me at the moment.
I have a Galaxy S4 , rooted and running Hyperdrive 21. I haven't changed any setting in the past few weeks. For the past couple of days, the 4G icon will show up in the top bar, while on WiFi. It has never done that before. When I connect to WiFi the signal indicator was always there, but the 4G icon was not. I always relied on this to know if I was using my cell data or WiFi. Now I don;t know if the phone is using 4G or Wifi?

Mine will only show the 4G icon when I'm sending or receiving a MMS at home on WiFi. Could that be what's happening?
No, I'm not sending or receiving a mms
Hello. Am having a phone icon on the top right on the right of the bluetooth and left of the wifi. The phone icon has 3 semicircles like a wifi symbol on top. I don't know what it is and how to get rid of it.
Could you please advise?
Thank you!

Try turning wifi calling off and see if that is it
yeah did that but nothing happens. i thought that this might be it but had no luck.
My guess is that it's a VoLTE icon
who is your carrier?
On orange romania
It is Orange Romania
It's the Volte symbol as mentioned by se1000. You can switch it off in mobile networks. Thanks again !
