[Q] What is this status bar icon? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I'm on stock, and I've only seen this icon on stock. I usually notice it while I'm loading an app

}
also when I pull the status bar down there is no notification about it and the icon goes away. I'm on stock 4.1.2

Hmm, looks...unusual.. You first thought was a music app or distorted weather notification. How long has it been there? Maybe try downloading "Air Push Detector" and see if that app catches anything?

I only have stock music player and google play music installed. And I know it's not from my weather app cause I remembering seeing this back when I didn't have this app. It's always been here, it shows up randomly for a short period of time and only on stock. And I usually notice it when starting up an app or I'll see it there after an app has started. Then I pull down the notification bar and it goes away. I got that app and scanned and 1 app came up but I remember seeing this status bar icon at a time I didn't have that app installed.

You actually get that as you would with 3 navigation on Aosp when you get the 3 dot overflow but does it with your notifications when you load something. Nothing to worry about unless it's constant while your actually on the home screen?

Yeah like as if I were to have a message or maybe my music playing and load up a game or such and I see th e status bar you'd see that dot overflow. Idk if that's when you see it.

Every now and then i get a notification about a free gift card from wal mart... No its not an email notification or from any app.. If I click on it, it takes me to a web site to apply.. Is there any way I can get rid of this?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
Is it a text message? You had to have given Wal-Mart your cell phone info at some point. Only way to stop it is to change your marketing preferences at Wal-Mart.com and turn off any notifications in the preferences. It has nothing to do with the phone.
Its not a text. It just randomly pops up in the notification bar. If I click
On it, it takes me to a web site to sign up.

Uhm, text notifications show up in the bar. If the text includes a link it would also be in there. You might want to read up on the workings of your phone a little more.
Take a screenshot next time.

This is what it looks like. My phone doesn't even vibrate or make a sound. I just turn on the screen and this notification is there... It comes up every day, once or twice a day.

repost pic, can't read.
its probably some app you have installed. try to find it an uninstall.
^^
Looks like an Airpush ad (or similar) - they go to the notification bar.

Ya seems like airpush, use this app to figure out which one it is https://market.android.com/details?id=com.brosmike.airpushdetector&feature=search_result
Idk why the screen shot comes out like that. I just repost it twice now and it looks the same. And I'll give airpush a try. Thanks
Edit: you were right. It was an app I had that lets see south park. It solved the issue. Thanks guys
I used the manual opt out to permanently remove airpush.
Apparently you can still keep the app. I'll test it out... so far so good.

Edit: I just put my IMEI and hit submit.

Is there a way to change up the Toggles in the drop down notification area?
I want to put a 'Silent' toggle and lose the airplane mode.
or
Do we have to wait to get root and ROM'd to drop the shaky phone icon.

You want this:
[MOD] 14 toggle quick panel 10/16/2011
It's working on my skyrocket, use the stock odexed rooted roms instructions.
I just installed this on my Skyrocket and its working great. I'm still stock, but rooted.
One thing did happen, but I'm not sure why. I used Root Explorer and followed the instructions, right after I dropped the SystemUI in the destination folder, I started getting Force Close messages about every 5 seconds. I pushed through them through the rest of the process, rebooted and all was good. (So Far)
Just a heads up if somebody else runs into this.

[MOD] MIUI style battery bar with stock battery % removed

Disclamer Stuff
You need to be Deodexed to use for now unless someone tests on .odex and confirms working.
Always make a nandroid before testing!!
First off this mod is combined with the last toggle version i made for my phone. So at the momment you get both combined.
I can add it to other versions if people are using those just have to pm me.
I removed the Normal Battery % next to the clock
(not really removed but i replaced it with a 1x1 blank pixel)
there are two versions
1) with bar along top of status bar
2) with bar along bottom of status bar

In Appdrawer launch Battery Bar Settings Click Show Battery Bar twice then on next battery update it will show. "can force it to show by pluging it into charger"
The bar colors or fully changable. Stock ICS blue is HEX FF33B5E5
I think the animations are for a donate version he has for the App

Credit
All credit belongs to pvyParts his Tutorial here if you want to add to your own.
He also has a App Version no modding or flashing Required Here App version does run a extra Procsess in background but has added benefit of being onscreen fulltime if you use apps that are always fullscreen.
I have been waiting to unlock and root for the battery bar, now for voiding my warranty

Did you run battery bar setting from the app drawer then uncheck and recheck the show bat setting.

I found out the Charging animations work you just have to click it on and off acouple times to get it to take effect
Confirmed deodexed only. Crashes systemui if odexed.
Not to spoil fun or hard work, but the market app works fine and is free.

Where's the fun in that? Anyone can install an app from the market, it's more fun if you can break something in the process.
Ya app works fine its running as a extra service the mod isnt thats the only diffrence

Why theres a Panda on my Desktop? ^_^

I dont know why, but for some reason when I swipe between screens on my desktop, it appears a Panda on the bottom left corner as shown in the screenshot (also the ears on the top left corner). It is actually the Triple Town Icon, but if I remove the app from the desktop, it keeps showing up.
It also appears a white "shinning", but once I restart the device, it all disappears and goes back to normal. Is not annoying at all, just curious. Any idea why this could happen?

What launcher are you running?
Are you using any apps that could be from less-than-legitimate sources or developers?
He didn't do anything wrong. Let him chill.
Obviously your are running a theme, as evident by the white shiny background to your launcher shots. I notice an aftermarket app drawer button.
Go back to stock everything and I bet it's gone.

Stock launcher. All apps should be legit, maybe Nexus 4 camera app is provoking it... :/

The shiny background is part of the "bug" and I manually changed the app drawer button within "framework-res.apk" :good:
Now the panda is gone, its strange. As I said, its not annoying at all, just "funny stuff".
As AlexDeGruven said non legitimate apps do tend install junk to, same as a PC.
I'm sure since your rooted, it installed it with out you knowing. (when you installed the panda app)

That's a sneaky panda you got there. What I usually do is spread out some bamboos on my home screen and wait for him to come out. Then I catch him with my finger and throw him in the garbage can. If he comes back rinse and repeat, If you run out of bamboos your screwed.

[Q] Notification apps/widgets

I am looking for apps/widgets, which show pending notification count of emails/phone calls/sms/gmail etc... I couldnt find one in market which does all these.
That's probably going to be a launcher thing. I use Nova launcher ... It has the count post attached to the corresponding app.See screen shot below .. Notice the email count badge attached.

Missed It (search play store) works really well. by itself it can monitor any app you want and display on a widget but you can pair it up with nova launch pro and display the number on the icon for any app as well.
