[Q] Start icon between bluetooth and wifi on status bar in 5.0.1 - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just updated my N5 to 5.0.1 yesterday and noticed a new star icon that is showing between the bluetooth and wifi on the status bar. Pretty sure that was not there before. At least I think it's new in 5.0.1 but could be wrong.
Anyone know what that star is? Is there a table listing what all the icons are on the top display bar?
TIA

[Q] New icon in system tray

Hi. This question refers to the 'Android Revolution HD 9' ROM. Hope its ok to post here
Sorry if its been asked before, but i seem to have a new icon on my system bar. Sitting inbetween my wifi signal icon and batter icon is now a circle with a line through it. Its like a ~no signal~ icon i have on my mobile. Any ideas? My tablet is the N8000 version so will have no signal anyway. Any ideas to hide it? Thanks in advance

[Q] Status bar icons no more showing G servers connectivity?

Hi all!
In Android 4.3 and lower, the statusbar icons were grey when disconnected and blue when connected to Google servers (also a quick internet-connected-proof).
What happens with the new white icons in 4.4?
I believe they turn grey but that is only from what I read before kitkat was released

I haven't seen them change at all the whole day so maybe there is no indication any more. Can't say that i ever needed to know when i was connected to their servers so it's not something i would miss at all. I don't miss the little arrows either as i never liked them!
When I'm in the quick panel screen, I have seen the WiFi/network indicators flash orange a couple of times when exiting airplane mode.
I'm assuming this means it's connected. Otherwise, the indicators stay white, probably due to the confusion caused by the blue indicators on older versions.
Thank you for the info.
I always appreciated this function, very useful for troubleshooting issues like when you are at home, connected to WIFI router, but the modem is not connected to the Internet. :good:

notification icons missing in status bar

I bought my s6 and it was running 6.0.1 out of the box.
Whenever I get a whatsapp message I don't get a icon in the status bar. When I swipe the bar down the messages are there and they also appear on the lockscreen.
For some reason I can't get it to say 'allowed'.
I have added screenshots of my settings in the "notification" menu
Anybody here knows the setting or is having similar problems? I have some more apps that have this problem.

Need status bar to show which WiFi signal is being used. How to do?

Need status bar to show which WiFi signal is being used. How to do? My old Note3 always had the WiFi signal name up there.
I have installed Material Status Bar but it seems useless.
And yes I know that if I long press on the Wi-Fi icon I will get a list of WiFi signalsand it will tell me what I'm connected to. That takes too long. I want to see it ON the status bar.

the name of wifi is under wifi icon when poll-down the status bar.
and that thing on note3 is for old software and u cannot do it with an app or system setting.
there should be a mod to modify systemUI and u need root access for that
anyway, you can test network apps like Fing or similar apps.
some of these apps create additional information inside a notification for users.

The name of the Wi-Fi signal does NOT show under the status bar icon. The screenshot fails to show the status bar so you'll have to just believe me. I would I would not have posted if that had been the case.
Okay now I see it problem solved. Have to pull down twice on the status bar

Unknown tiny circle in notification bar

Hi,
I'm using official Lineage 16 on a Lenovo P2.
Can anyone tell me what this small circle in the notification bar means?
It isn't always in the same place, and sometimes it's merged into the LTE icon, although the circle still appears when mobile data and wifi are off.
I'm baffled.
Cheers, Simon.
