I just recently got a windows phone, and like a fool I immediately started customizing...then I realized I didn't know what I was doing. Long story short, I installed something (I have no idea what) that put a second battery icon on my home screen, and can't figure out how to get rid of it. There is nothing in the add/remove programs, and no running tasks. Anyone recognize this? Can anyone tell me how to get rid of it?
Thanks,
C

You will need to check which programs you have installed. Click on START-> PROGRAMS and view there or alternatively click on START-> SETTINGS -> SYSTEM and then select Remove Programs which would show all that you have installed. From that may be able to help as I've had the same icon just can't remember where from.
The unwanted 2nd battery is from QuickMenu...you can tap and hold there to change what is being shown.
Thanks for the response, but I checked all this and no luck. It seems to be a remnant of something I un-installed. Has anbody seen it before? Maybe if I re-install the software and remove it again it will go away...I just don't know what that software is....

Oops...didn't see the jamesus post. That was it! Went to Quickmenu site read how to remove it and viola no more 2nd battery indicator! Thanks to all of you!
Weird, just posted about this in the Herald forum, I didn't even think of searching the general forum for a topic about this. I'm having the same problem - checked the quickmenu settings and disabled "show battery on taskbar." That got rid of the battery icon, but now there's nothing in its place! I can't figure out how to restore the task manager shortcut to the top right. Were you able to get it back?

Is there a way to delete permanent the shortcut spezial (T-Mobile). it comes from the SimCard.
Greats Lübby
What does it do? Can you make a screen shot?
I'd like to know this too, because it's an item in the start menu I hardly ever use and the menu would look way better without it.

The icon automatically hides when there's no connection with the network. Not true.
The icon automatically hides when there's no connection with the network at boot and shows when network connection is established.
The icon gives access to some GPRS related services.
SIM menù toolkit...I think it is automatically generated by the system....it gives you acces to the operator's features like credit, info's and other stuff...
It's the only way I use for viewing my remaining credit. LoL

and no way to delete this ?
Haven't tried to delete it...maybe i should try to move it somewhere else...btw have you tried deleting it and everytime you boot it regenerates?
Yes, it is there after each reboot, whether you deleted it or not. But you might be able to fix this with Mort Script or something similar. Put a script in the start up folder, which delets it after each reboot! But I have never used Mort Script, you have to find somebody who knows the scripting language!
BTW: if you hide it with Resco Explorer it's still there!
As fh said. I have deleted it, moved it, (AirTel Live) never works. It pops up on next boot . Did not try to hide it though.
Hiding doesn't work either.
Hey guys, whilst I realise this was probably a n00b mistake with some setting I probably inadvertently changed, but this morning my icons have disappeared at the top right:

}
This is from my Today screen. If I go into another application and click where the icons should be then they appear, and if I go back to the today screen, they are there, but as soon as I click the start button, they disappear again. If I click where the icon should be, then whatever should happen normally happens (if I were to click the sound icon, the volume would appear).
As you can imagine, this will get annoying, quickly! Any thoughts on what could be causing this? The only thing I've installed today is the Advanced Config tool.
Any help appreciated.
I had this same problem, but I think I figured it out.
I'm running wkTask / wkTaskLauncher. On the today screen there is a blank space where the 'ok' or 'x' would be when a program is open. press and hold in that blank space, and a menu will pop up. Go to Preferences -> General1. Check the 4th checkbox, "Hide task list when there are no tasks".
That got rid of my half icons.
I have the same problem on my asus P535. using wkTask too. but your solution does not work for me. no effect after checking that 4th option. no change after closing wkTask too.
it suddenly appeared after running scummVM.
any other idea?
thx
does anyone know how to keep the battery icon on titlebar displayed at all times?
mine only displays on the today screen. but when i run a program, it disappears.
anyone the reg tweak for this? im using WM6.1 02 by cotulla on magician

You can use a software named QuickMenu.

It's a Chinese favorite software with 0409 mui support.

great app!but i was hoping of just a reg tweak as i already have wisbarlite, with similar functions but i think uses smaller memory. im only using a 64mb magician so space is quite an issue for me. thanks a bunch though
There is no registry-tweak for BatteryStatus on every titlebar I think...
oh i see. i guess il give the quick menu a shot. theres one problem though. i think it conflicts with my pointui home2 app. whenever quick menu is running, the home button shows i have notifications even if i dont, and the home button cant be cliked. but when i close quickmenu. everything is fine. dunno how its causing it. hey, thanks for your time.
I think I found something interesting with small size...
Shows battery status on every titlebar...
wow thanks again.
First i thought it had something to do with WM6.5, but apparently not. Getting "use setup menu and change the setting to match your city" which is extremely annoying especially when running full screen applications (seems like a weather program but don't have any installed). The list of software and games i have installed is long so if anybody knows which program is doing this (both Tilt and Fuze), i'd appreciate it.

using Leo manila?
Have you checked Windows Startup to see if a .mscr there or anything like? if not check your notification list too.
I'm just a guessin.

Using Manila 2.1.
@stylez, nothing in the start-up folder that would cause it from what i see (pocketnotify, voicecommand, and htc startup).

So i'd go with that you have an old notification thats launched on boot leftover from a weather app, SKTools the free one should do for looking.
Good luck
All else fails a hard-reset will get rid "had too how many times do we say that? lol"
I suspect it's a weather app as well, but i don't have any installed. Btw, hard reset won't do it because i've already done many and one of the programs i'm using is causing this.
its probably pocket islam

It indeed was. I actually found out the solution a while ago (couple days after posting this thread), but thanks for help
A picture is worth a thousand words... So they say. But this picture is missing one word - the name of the software. Suspects are: Qmenu, SPB pocket plus, Phonealarm, WM native behaviour. If anyone knows this, please share, I'm having weird battery problems (like shutdown on 30% and then after powering up, sitting on 1% for over an hour with active usage). I'd like to hunt this bug down and make a kill. Screenshot was made with auto-capture utility, because it only shows right before shutdown, so this bugger was hard to catch. Even now bottom of the image is missing, probably due to write operation being interrupted by shutdown. You can see behind the image in question there is PhonEx being meddled with.
Thanks.
The screenshot:

I have no idea what it is (not even sure what I'm supposed to be looking at), but get a task manager like dotfred's or xtask and look up all the open windows. You should be able to track it down that way, and remove whatever's opening it up.
Well, thanks for the advice, but if You read carefully what I wrote, then You could imagine that it's really hard to pull that off in 2-3 seconds while the device is shutting down. Of course, if there would be a system snapshot kind of program - which would let me take a snapshot or log of all open windows in every 1-2 seconds - then it would be awesome, but I am not aware that the utilities You mentioned are able to accomplish that.
