Missing BT icon

[Zeljac]

Hi, guys.
All of a sudden, BT icon (the one that's located in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen) just dissapeard :x I didn't install any new software, didn't perform a reset, or something like that, it just dissapeard for no obvious reason. Any ideas how I could get it back on the screen?

TIA,
Zeljac

it once did that to me a softreset got it back though

[Zeljac]

That was the first thing I tried but the situation is still the same :cry:

[Rudegar]

what if you go into settings->connections and choose bluetooth and change it from what ever it's set to and press ok
and maybe change it back again

If you have the last version of BTTools you can push in the new BT icon and, inmediately, make soft reset.
Of this form I have the old BT icon again.

[Zeljac]

Thanks a lot, mate. I did exactly what you told me, and the icon came back...

Tnx,
Zeljac

Ooops, here comes the problem again :cry: After gettin my BT icon back, I removed BTtools, and the icon dissapeard again. I tried the same trick again but with no results. So my question is open for your answers once again :cry:

I have the same problem, it was a day or two after I installed and removed GB-Soft Tweak, it went missing ... reinstalled the Tweak, after a few soft-reset, it's gone again until now. Do you have this Tweak installed?

Have you already tried to change \HKLM\Services\BTIcon\Keep or any of the other settings under this key?

Hope that helps

Hmm, a very strange thing happend. I synced it another computer (the one that I sync to maybe once or twice a week) and after that the icon just came back. So far, it's still there. Hopefully, it will stay that way :wink:

Anyway, tnx for all your replies...

Btw, I don't have GB-Soft tweak installed, and I was just about to start playing with the registry when the icon just appeared again.

Greetings,
Zeljac

the value for that registry key (keep) was set to 1. so, I set it to 0, soft reset, still no sign of BT icon.
then i set it back to 1, soft reset ... BT icon came back on!

however, in the next reset ... it's gone. something is messing with it in the background. :(

I had the same problem. Days ago I installed skin for the keyboard and mysteriously icon BT returned.

I think there may be a link between the missing BT icon and the number of Today plugins installed or events being processed at startup. I think it is an Operating System issue.

For example.

If I soft reset my unit I can get the BT icon to vanish.

If I then deselect any today plug in and soft reset again the BT icon re appears. However if I do not deselect a today plug in and soft reset the BT icon does not reappear.

So perhaps it is related to a timing of events on load when starting?

This could be a good clue. The timing on startup sounds like a good theory to the problem.

If you look in the registry under [HKLM/Services/BTIcon] there are some interesting keys named: Index, Keep, Order and Context.

Anyone know how these are used???

(The keys "Order" and "Index" seems most interesting)

/Oggi Similar to what I have said but that thread says to uncheck every today plug in. I have found you don't need to do that. For me just unckecking a single plug is in enough.

I'm pretty sure it is a loading issue.
