[Q] This thread symbol - but red.

[batwingnz]

Hi all,

Had the phone two days now, big step up from the SE Arc S!
Now for the question, whilst out and about today with data off my phone displayed a red triangle with an exclamation mark in it in the notification bar, opening the notifications showed nothing, clearing them made it go away for a few minutes. What does it mean? Signal related? (signal seemed fine)

Edit: Notification area displays locality when this symbol is displayed, still not sure how this is worthy of a red triangle (error) symbol

Was it one of these triangles?

PS: You can also see my 10% battery (images borrowed, not created by myself). I'm not bothering to do 1% at least until we get recovery so I can work on a stock and/or source rom.

Nothing like that is in SystemUI that I can see... only red triangle is the one I posted in drawable-hdpi.

I haven't seen anything like that. Maybe it is coming from an app.

Problem solved! You can turn these off in Settings I believe, but personally a little emergency warning seems like a good thing

Heh, when mine pops up it just says name of suburb I'm in, with no attendant message.
