BB Bold :: Tiny Flashlight Icon With 1 Next To It On Notifications Bar?
Aug 3, 2011
I have an icon in my notifications bar which looks like a tiny front flashlight icon with a 1 next to it (in the same way I have the envelop to alert me of messages received or the missed call alert). When I click on the bar it says I have no new notifications but I can't get rid of the icon or the number 1 and I don't know what it refers to.
Recently got a blackberry bold 9700 as a gift. Noticed that a very tiny icon comes up near the upper left corner of the screen. Looks like a box or briefcase with a red circle on the top right corner of the icon, either with a white star or arrow in it. Its too small to say for sure. Can't find any answers in the manuals or online.
1) Does anyone know what the tiny icon on the top portion of the home screen that looks like a miniture BB phone with a tiny button on its side means? Showed up yesterday. 2) Yesterday I had a line that stated "Mike Grasso's Network" on the home screen, now that's gone.
I have a Torch 9800. This is my first blackberry. I download a flash light app. I now have a notification icon that appears to be from the Flashlight app. When I click it it shows me my calender information and nothing about the flash light app. How do I remove this?
For some reason I have lost my Text Messaging Icon. If I look in my Contacts - I am able to select a Contact and then hit Menu and am given the option of "Send a Text Message" - which works.When I receive a text message - the appropriate notification goes off (audible or vibrate), but, there is no indication in the status bar that there is a new text message. If I go into "Contacts" and look at the individual that sent the text message, I can see the conversation in their history. Obviously, with a ton of Contacts, even if I do happen to get the notification, it can be quite the task to figure out where its coming from. I assume that any texts that do not have an associated Contact are just simply gone.
I just got back from Verizon and they told me I need a new phone, basically my blackberry is a lemon for some reason. It was working fine until when I got the icon for a update and tried to do that. It got stuck for a VERY long time. My icons are all very very tiny and not the same. Text, camera etc are all gone. Basically I can use it only as a phone. Verizon told me on the restart it keeps getting hung up on the bluetooth (which I normally leave off but I can not tell since no icons show). My back up to BB is fine but I can not get the phone to upload
Just got my 9700 today, love it! Been messing with it all afternoon. One odd little thing, tho'.the font on websites is soooo tiny its ridiculous. Also my Quicklaunch that I brought over from my other phone, just this tiny little box comes up and again with tiny font. How can I fix this??
Does anybody know how to change the minimum font size for web content? my new phone version 6 does not have the general properties option under browser options like my old phone which allows you to change the minimum font size
The text icon disappeared and I do not receive notifications of new text messages. The only way I can find a text is to locate the sender in my Contacts.
Flashlight has remained on for some time, turned off in camera, no change. Also, wifi does not work . When connected to a wifi network and data disabled, says" unable t connect to the internet please try again later. If problem persists contact service provider"
I'm a newbie trying to download the flashlight app: [URL]. I keep getting stuck at the point where I'm being asked to download the latest version of appworld....then it takes forever and then what's downloaded has no name...just a version number. Last night is just sat there "downloading" - I left it overnight and it was still "downloading" in the morning!
On Crackberry Best Sellers list, it is disheartning to see Flashlight as a top seller.I thought the Blackberry was suppose to be a professional smartphone.Seems like some productivity software would be the top seller.
I discovered that when I click Media/Expore only the Device file folder displays. The Media file is gone. My camera had 400+ photos on it, and now it says only 16 pictures available, with 0 items in the Camera Pictures. Not only that, the flash is continually lit, and the device gets quite warm, and the battery runs low quickly. I had not recently done a back up, but when I did, it indicated that there were no photos to back up! There is no SD card installed, never had one. I have pulled the battery multiple times, even over night, and nothing is fixed. The camera was working the night before, and when I went to look at the pics the following morning, the flash light was on, and the file and all photos were gone!
I'm a new android user, I'm coming from Windows Phone. On the start screen of my Xperia Z5 Premium I have the facebook Icon. Why there is no number displayed, for how much notifications there are? I mean the little number, like in the E-Mail Icon.
I have turned off Smart stay and Auto adjust screen tone. I've set the screen mode as standard and Daydream is off. Yet, I still get the eye icon appearing several times a day for brief moments. I really want this icon gone permanently.
- The SMS icon, in the top bar, is constantly blinking. I read on nokia help that it meant my inbox was full. Or it's not. It's almost empty (10 SMS). How can i turn off that ?
- A second problem is the SMS notification, that appears as a wild sequence of TV commercials would do during your favorite tv show : very annoying, whatever the circumstances. The popup forbids me to do anything quietly and peacefully, i'm interrupted and have to click on it in order to make it disappear. (I don't care if Mr X is harassing me while i'm browsing the web)
I have a Curve 8530 and downloaded the FB upgrade last week. I cannot stop the notifications icon from showing up on my homepage. I have gone through the options and removed the checks from the boxes for:
And I have turned off the Email Notifications.I have pulled the battery, rebooted, deleted the application, reinstalled the application....nothing keeps me from being notified about notifications.
I just got a LG G3 2 days ago and straight out of the box it did an update to Lollypop so I cant quote if the issue I have worked on Kitkat.
Anyway the problem I have is Facebook and Whatsapp do NOT show the number of notifications on Icon only in the status bar. Here's a couple of screen captures to show you what I mean.
A few weeks ago, I had an issue where i wasn't getting sms alerts. I put it down to a one off or me just missing them. However, I'ts happened again.My inbox had 3 messages, that I'd not heard a beep for, I had no little envelope icon and no "New Message" alert on the main screen.
As a test, we sent a message to my phone, the message hit the inbox, but there were no notificataions. I changed the profile and sent another text.. same again, no notifications.I rebooted the phone and sent another message.. this time everything worked OK.I'm using a standard message tone as the tone alert..
I love the Toast notifications on my Icon, which has Windows 8.1 through Verizon. The only problem is that they only display for a few seconds and they usually vanish before I can get to the phone to see what the notification was, and as far as I can tell, there's no way to pull up a list of old notifications. So I'm wondering if there's any way to make these notifications display longer. Right now, they seem to be about five seconds and they're gone. I'd like to extend that to at least ten seconds. And is there any way to pull up a list of old notifications so I can see what I might have missed when I was away from my phone?
I am using my new HTC One X since last wednesday. The reason of writing is here that i wanted to have a tiny message font for my messages as the small font of message section is even too big as my messages can be read easily by anyone who is sitting with me.
I don't know if this is the right forum for this, but I woke this morning to see my Yahoo email icon back on my home screen. Has anyone else gotten it back? And lastly, how do I change it back to a stock BB icon?
I just got the bold 9700 ver. 2 from ATT and don't have the phone icon. It is not hidden, I looked, and not in any other folder. All I have is a phone icon that is for Visual Voice Mail, which I am not signed up for and don't want to be. When I click the VVM icon it says do you want to sign up and I hit No and it just kicks me back to the main screen. How can I get rid of the Visual VM icon and get the Call log icon?
