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.

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!
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 noticed that my GPS icon is visible at the top of my notification bar. I haven't installed any new programs since flashing the firmware, so I am not sure what is making the GPS turn on right now. And I just rebooted my phone this morning. I haven't rebooted again to see if it comes back--I want to see how long it stays there. But it has been there for five minutes or so now. Is there a way to see what app has told the phone to make the GPS active?
By the way, does anyone else think the new firmware requires a longer, more deliberate swipe to wake up the phone after tapping the power button?
um... I have the new firmware, and the GPS icon is not persistent.
I run stock, and the GPS will kick in at times, no idea why. It's not persistent though.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you have adb enabled, and can run adb logcat when the GPS kicks in and see what running process that might be accessing this?
Even I have the same problem.
Is it the plus sign inside a rhombus with signal strength to the right side of it??
My fascinate got updated 2 days ago and ever since the sign appears on my status bar.
Also, after the update I am not able to connect my phone to my Mac. Its not able to mount the disk.
Please help !!!
Thanks,

I like ka5 too.. the heptic feedback is still notworking right but ill keep this firmware until the official one comes..
This was happening to me on JL5. Turns out it was ShopSavvy barcode scanner (Big In Japan). I promptly uninstalled. Just a thought...
Hello all, new to this here.
I've had a Note 3 for quite some time and decided to finally give in to all of this rooting.
By popularity, Alliance ROM seems to be the one to go with.
I managed to get the ROM up and running and I must say this is much better than anticipated.
However, I believe I may have found a bug... if not, I must have done something wrong along the way.
In short, the quick toggles do not reflect any changes. If I turn wifi off, it stays bright green as if its on. Same for any toggle. The only one I see change is the NFC and thats when i switch the s beam on or off (even then it doesnt completely gray itself out, it just goes dim green as if it was changing from on to off, visa versa).
I have wiped and reinstalled the ROM twice with no results.
Is anyone else noticing this? Could it be a fluke?
You have to change the on/off colors manually. It's something that they'll address in the next build but it's a known problem. I forgot how right now but. I'll look for you once I get home.
Settings>custom settings>status bar and toggles> toggle options > toggle icon style
And change it to one that works. Toggles should change immediately and if I remember correctly only one set of toggles worked for me.
Now they all work for me.
Try that and report back.
Hello everyone!
I've problem with switching mobile data on.
I've tried many custom roms and i thought the issue was gone after a week of hassle-free experience, BUT...
yesterday i used mobile data for 3 hours listening to music by Tidal, switched data off and i went asleep. After awaking, i tried to turn it on and the problem appeared again.
What's the problem?
There r 2 symptoms:
1. - mobile data toggle button is active (LTE shown in the left upper corner of the toggle) when i swipe down notification bar , but not on status bar (there is nothing, not even “x“, when i have data disabled, so it looks like it's trying to connect to mdata and it can't). Overall effect: there is no internet, even though toggle behaves like there is no problem, quickly shows this LTE in the corner. Toggling on and off doesnt help.
2. - i practice a lot in the basement, where's simply signal void.
during this everythin-works-week my phone had no problem with finding signal after exiting the basement. now it takes a looot of time to find an operator.
Solution for both, whats also strange: HARD reboot. SOFT reboot doesnt fix anything.
Anyone has a clue whats going on with my phone?
(currently i'm on AOSP-OMS-7.0-20161111-lux-nickv)
