HTC Desire Z :: Strange Symbols Appear Then Disappear On Status Bar
Jan 8, 2011
Along the top 'status bar' of my Desire Z's screen I've become used to seeing strange symbols appear and disappear. Some are quite obvious - signal strength, battery level, 3G etc but most are very unintuitive and quite difficult to figure out. One that appears regularly is the capital letter 'H'. Here in the UK, a capital 'H' normally means that you're in the vicinity of a hospital but I don't think it can mean that. Another one I often see is a musical note with a strikeout line through it.
It took me ages to figure out that this meant I had my sound profile set to Silent. At the LHS of the status bar I've just acquired two new symbols that I've never seen before. They look like a downward facing arrow with an underscore beneath them. The first one appeared yesterday and the second one about an hour later. Nothing seems to get rid of them - not even switching the phone off, then on again. Is there anywhere where I can find out what some of these cryptic symbols mean?

I bought two whole albums off of iTunes the other day from my Mac. They downloaded, and synced to my iPhone. These albums can play on my iPhone normally but there are also duplicates with the symbol as described above, except with no art work and they will not play.I am a user of iCloud, but not iTunes Match. All the songs are properly downloaded on my Mac, and there are no available downloads. I've tried hard reset as well and powercycling my phone. I've closed down the music and tried restarting. Everything is all up to date, and I've tried taking these two albums off then back on my iPhone, but that didn't do anything. These songs are already downloaded and I just checked for downloads and there's nothing to be downloaded

I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge and I really want the Status Bar to completely disappear from all my apps. I achieved it to disappear on my home screen with Nova Launcher, but not my apps. My phone is not rooted, but I will root it if I have to. I just want to have a clean swipe down of the notification bar without the status bar displaying.

I have HTC Desire. I had some videos and pictures in my mobile. I never deleted them from my mobile, I just transferred them to my PC and with transfer they disappear. I can't see them in Gallery any more. Luckily due to the backup software Astro, i have got my Pictures back but I can't locate my videos anywhere. To remind you, I just transferred them, not deleted them from mobile.

The HTC desire and HT Sync work well with Contacts, Photos and Calendar. But with documents, the synchronisation appears to be from the PC to the Desire and not the other way round. Thus it appears to copy rather than synchronise.

On my PC and Galaxy Tab 10.1, when connected to my home router, I get about 1.5 mbps for my download speed. On the HTC I get less than 500 kbps. Anyone any ideas on how I can improve the download speed on the Desire, or is this the speed which it is supposed to operate at?

At the top of the screen, in the statusline, there are some symbols I don't understand. I get warnings that I have shut down datatraffic and roaming, but there is still a small R on the statusline. Furthermore there was two arrows to the left, and this change into small boxes with a red cross when I switched off the datatraffic My question is: is my phone sat to download and upload with the R still on, wich will probably cost a lot of money, and how can I switch it off if necessary? Witch services will I not be able to use with the datatraffic switched off?

Normally on the screen it nearly always used to appear the letter H in white box as a sign of HSDPA connection. Now, however, I seem to be stuck with G in white box after updating to software 14.78. Are these two things related? HSDPA is set to " use " and packet data always on.

I just sent a text message using brackets "( )" with letters insde and they ended up turning into icon symbols. So far i found:
(S) = displays a moon

There maybe more w/ other letters, but I haven't tried them all.Nokia phones (Owned 1999-Now):5110, 3390, 3520, 6230, 6682, N72, 5800 XM , Lumia 800, Lumia 900 (Currently owned)

I have 2 symbols on my phone. One is a little house with a chimney next to the Orange logo - it is sometimes green and sometimes red.
The other symbol is sometimes on the left of the 3G and I can only describe it as a box with a dot in the middle and a hook coming out of the top!

Is it possible when using the keyboard, and the symbol key to select a symbol etc, that after you've selected the symbol you want and you then press the space bar, that the keyboard reverts back to letters rather than remaining on the symbol page?

I keep getting symbols E (EDGE?) and G (GPRS?) on the top of my screen in my c3-00, but I have never connected to the Internet with the phone yet. Do those symbols mean that such a network is available or is the phone is connected to the Internet? I'd just like to be sure with it.
