Hey all currently using an lg g2 d802 5.0.2, is there any way I can get my network id/name on the notification bar and lock screen it seems to be missing. Going abroad soon won't know which network I'm connected to so I don't get charged on three's feel at home
Thx
Sorted I found that my network id was showing on my lock screen but was masked by my wallpaper lol. Looks like u can't have it showing in the top notification bar

Hello everyone,
Purchased the MDA II from Tek'N'Toys and love it. However, the manual does not mention all of the notification icons that we use here in the U.S. and I don't have any idea what a couple of them mean. For example: The triangle that briefly appears I am assuming means "Tri-Band." There is one icon that appears that looks like an arm with an "x" in the middle. It could also look like a telephone with an "x." I am assuming this means that a network is not available. Does anyone know if these are correct?
Also, how do I know if my GPRS is continually "on?" I've read that it's constantly on even when turned "off;" however, upon turning the device off, it switches from being connected to the GPRS status to just "waiting" status. Any ideas on this as well? Even with Messenger online it still goes into "waiting" mode when turned off.
Any advice will help.
Best regards,
Monty Gibson
Okay guys, so my phone is great!!! IM IN LOVE!! But here's the deal: Many times i wont receive 3G signal in places where 3G flourishes on other T-Mobile phones. I pull down my status bar and it says 3G T-Mobile, but the little bars show 5 bars and the little triangle antenna, not a 3G next to the bars. So, i go to my wireless settings. The button that turns Data Connection on/off is turned off. So i press the button, takes me to my settings add/remove/edit data connections. VERY FRUSTRATING. Then it randomly decides to work.
Also, whenever i try to view pictures, it gets slow and locks up the phone. Might this be cause by me having pictures from my G1 on my SD card? Idk different size, struggling to load them, etc.
Thanks in advance

Could anyone tell me what this icon is , the 2 arrows
I had it turn up about a week ago , after a reboot it went away then today my network switched 4G on and the arrows have shown up again .
I'm on the 3 UK network , I know they switched on voLTE for the S5 a few weeks ago.
OK after doing more Googling it appears to be the icon for VoLTE { Voice Over LTE } normally the icon arrows are coloured Red and Green but Samsung decided just to go for the Gray colour.
If the Mods want to delete this thread , then go ahead
I just let my phone update from OG5 to OK3.
Now I have a new icon in the notification bar. But, it's greyed out, so I didn't even see it at first.
Any idea what this icon is?
It looks like the 4G and Wifi icons mashed together into one. The upper left quadrant of the icon says 4G. The upper right has a lightning bolt. The lower left is the WiFi symbol. The lower right is the up/down data transfer arrows.
Like I said, it's all greyed out. I still have the regular WiFi and 4G LTE icons in the notification bar as well and they are both lit up and working. The new icon is between the Bluetooth icon (on the left) and the regular WiFi icon (on the right).
What does it all mean?!?! Oh, the humanity!
I believe that is download booster. You should be able to turn it off in settings>more networks>download booster
Ah HA! Yes! I just verified, that is what it is!
I saw DB in my settings the other day and turned it on to see if it makes any difference. I didn't notice the new icon at the time, so I thought it was something with the OK3 update.
Thank you!
ps. Any reason I would not leave that on? I have Unlimited Data, so I don't care if it results in higher data usage.
With unlimited data I cant see many downsides to leaving it on? It might use more battery when you are downloading large files (in exchange for downloading them faster?)
That's what I was thinking. Thanks.
Anyone know what this icon is? When I pull down the drawer, there's zero info surrounding it (like an app notification). Being that it's on the right side, I assume it's a system notification, but not 100% on that.
Before this icon showed up, my phone was running normal. After a standard reboot, it got stuck on the T-Mobile logo. I had to reset the device and since then, this icon has shown up.

Nothing. It's doesn't appear to be app related.
Maybe it's related to your sim provider as soon as it goes above 4G for example VoLte maybe an advanced quality so it shows that icon
Called t-mobile. They have no clue. Hmm

One way to find out goto Settings>Mobile network
And change Network mode to 3G only
And see if that icon still shows up

Yah that did it. It goes away when 3G onky is toggled and come back when LTE is on. More specifically, its tied to the VoLTE. How strange.
Thanks
