All of a sudden I notice a "1" on my taskbar. What is it, how can I remove it?
I've lost the ability to view my Wi-fi signal since this number is using it's spot.
Cheers,
Paul
i've never seen that before.... can you load a screenshot?

Here it is, notice left to the EDGE Icon.

Maybe it means that line number 1 is being used, I used to see that on Nokia phones but never on a WM device...
Dual line or sim card
Hi
I think that WM can display this number if it thinks you have a dual SIM card or two lines on your SIM card. How you might change lines, etc, I have no idea. I don't think the feature is fully supported in WM.

No Dual SIM here, and I don't have 2 lines on the phone. Out of nowhere it just appeared. I just want it to not be displayed>

Did you try to modify icons in the taskbar from the mui files? Cause if you did, maybe something got messed up during the change. When did it start? Was it at a random moment, after you up/downgraded your Rom, been happening since you got the device?...Also, does it keep on happening if you soft reset.
Nope, didn't try to modify anything in the windows / mui's, only once i installed the HTC Call Recorder, since it didn't work i uninstalled that, but that was in november. This happened in random about 3 days ago...i thought it was like an updated "voice mail messages". It hasn't gone away. It stays after soft resets, i even searched through options in advanced Config.
Paul
OK. Get a file explorer that lets you view hidden files, such as Total Commander. Then unhide all files. Search for image files, probably a .bmp. Find the image that looks like your number 1 (it'll look different, probably black and white), and find what folder it is in. That will give you an idea of what program is using the file. If it is just in the windows directory, find its properties IE when was it installed there. That might let you narrow it down to a day. It's a hard work around, but it should work.
Apart from Dual Sim, I don't know of any program that would put a 1 in your bar, except for 1xRTT.bmp.
Where should I unhide the files? Windows Folder?
Paul
THe "Unhide files" option usually unhides files across the whole device, not folder specific, much the same as in Windows XP. There may be other options about which files to unhide, you want to unhide ALL of them, including system files.
understood, but where would i seek the "1.bmp" file per say....
You would need to use the search tool and search for ALL .bmp files. And if it is not there, than ALL .png files. And if it is not there than ALL .jpg files. And if it is no there than ALL .jpg files. It shouldn't be any other extension. You would have to search through each group of images until you came to the one which you are seeing. It's a long drawn out process, but should solve your problem eventually, or at least provide you with a little more information on what's going on.
UPDATE
Here is an update on my issue:
When I turn on my Bluetooth, the number goes away.....but when I turn it off, it reappears. Will do the searches now from work.
Paul
I also have a number "1" in my task bar now. I recently changed providers and it apeared when i insertet my new sim-card. Using wifi, bluetooth or other program that creates a taskbar icon makes the "1" dissapear. I have no clue what it means or does. :/
Has anyone figured out the problem with changing notifications? My email notification (gmail) switches to a random mp3 file at least once a day, and I don't connect the phone to the computer in storage mode, so unavailability of the assigned sound cannot be blamed here. It's not a big deal, but rather an annoyance.
Thanks!

As noted in the stickied FAQ at the top, this is a known issue.
Connecting the phone to the computer at all causes the phone to go into a "pre-mount prepping stage" in which the OS will start separating itself from the SD card partition. I don't know if that's technically what happens, but that's what's been my observation.
Btw, this issue and some workarounds(only surefire one requires root in my experience) have been discussed in greater detail here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=882803 . Insert generic please use the search funuction comment here. /endmodimpersonation.
This is certainly the same issue as we're discussing in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=882803
Please go to this http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=13413 link and STAR the issue. We're trying to get Google's attention to fix this ASAP.
Meanwhile, a work around, if you're rooted, appears to be to put the desired sound into the /system/media/audio/(ringtones, notifications, proper sub-folder) folder.
Trying to determine if this is a "just me" problem or a larger problem.
I have ringtones on my SD card that I moved onto my phone when I got the Atrix 2. I am able to successfully assign the 'new' ringtones for both the default and the individual contacts. I've already set it up as indicated in this thread (which I know is for the S2, but I presumed the concept should be the same).
However, I've found that at some point later (perhaps after a restart?), some (but not all) of the ringtones have changed, usually to songs on the SD card (not necessarily to other ringtones).
Is anyone else experiencing anything like this? It's not a huge deal, but it definitely throws me for a loop when say, my father calls, and it's not "his" ringtone playing on my phone.
Thanks for the feedback to anyone else who responds.

You should not have them on the phone storage, that is for apps and android only. All of your media (including ringtones) needs to stay on your SDcard, especially since the phone scans and rescans the SDcard on every boot, for things like that.
To make it work correctly for this phone, create a folder (directory) on your SDcard and call it ringtones (it must be on the root of the SDcard), that will make them show up as ringtones to select, the only time they will not work, is if you unmount the SDcard and put another one in, that does not have that layout with the files you selected as ringtones. Once you put the card back in and remount it, they should start to immediately work again.
Hi Jim:
So would the correct path for these files then be: /mnt/sd-card/media (and then either notifications/ringtones/audio?).... or /sd-card/media?
I swear that's how it was initially set up and the phone couldn't seem to find any ringtones, which is why I'd made the change as outlined above.
Thanks for your assistance.

No, the correct path is:
/sdcard/ringtones/
Your ringtone mp3 files go in there. I have never had an issue with that location on this phone, and a few other other phones that has worked flawlessly as well.

Hi Jim:
I moved the files there using root explorer, used the app "sd rescan" to rescan the card again, and rebooted my phone.
The tones now appear twice each in my ringtones option and both appear to play (which would at least imply that they're both linked to valid files). However, I had set my alarm for this morning to wake me up with a ringtone, and was instead woken up to the noise the phone makes when you first turn it on and it's scanning the card. I've also noticed that again, my contacts have different ringtones.
I've noticed that the folder appears in two places (sd-card/ringtones, and then a mnt/sd-card/ringtones has a symblink of that) ... could that be my issue?
It's not just you. The phone has storage "issues" of all kinds.
Just curious do you have Zedge installed?
I do have Zedge installed, though I've never used it for Ringtones. I've also got RingDroid installed, which is how I made these into ringtones/notification tones in the first place.
Hi all,
First of all thanks scott for an awesome JB build for Infuse. Everything works great, except that, the battery icon doesn't show the phone's charging when in fact it is charging. Also, when I connect the phone to the PC with the USB cord, it doesn't get recognized as a mass storage or even an MTP device. I don't even see any settings related to this in the system settings. Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Cliff

I have no problems with the battery icon - perhaps you need to flash again? As for the USB issue, you should have the option to mount the phone in mass storage when you connect to the computer. The option shows up in the notification menu. Click that and then you should know what to do.

Thanks, but that's the problem! I don't see anything popping up in the notifications!
Also, I have another problem! For google accounts I don't see calendar in the sync options, hence I don't see any of the google account calendar in the google calendar app. Any help in this regard!
Update: Partially followed this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35064880&highlight=calendar#post35064880
In that, just installed the calendar app from google on play store and voila!
But the storage issue remains!

If I were you, I'd do a full wipe and flash. When you flash, or rather before you flash, make sure to format system. That seems to get rid of a lot of gremlins! It's not the build at any rate, it's something to do with your setup.
That is my problem too, now i want to update other ROM but i don't know how to copy file to my Tablet. Could you help me how to do it.
Thanks all,
Long

Did this fix your issue? I'm having the same problem getting into USB mode. There isn't the option in the settings like there is in the stock rom.

Here are a couple of options.
1) Download the ROM directly to your phone through the browser.
2) Send the file to your phone over wifi using WiFi File Transfer Pro, AirDroid, or ES File Explorer. There are a number of other options in the Play Store but these are the three I've used before.
3) Pop out the external SD card and connect it to your computer to grab the file.
4) Transfer directly from your computer via Bluetooth.
I'm sure there are other ways too but these are the ones that come to mind.
Good luck.

Hello.
I am having a lot of trouble getting the USB drivers to work.
I am wanting to simply connect my Moto One 5G Ace with a USB cable and have it show up as a drive on Windows File Explorer. I want to copy files to/from the SD card.
But either I'm not downloading the right drivers, or my developer settings are wrong, or something else is going on.
I downloaded the "MotoroalDeviceManager_2.5.4.exe. All that seems to do is check for software updates.
I downloaded Motorola_Mobile_drivers_v6.4.0.zip, which seems to do absolutely nothing.
When I connect the phone to the computer, I get the popup from the system tray "Setting up the Motorola One 5G Ace device" (or whatever), then asks me what I want to do with it by default. I select "Open File Explorer". Well, the "motorola one 5G ace" selection in File explorer shows a blank screen.
If I go into USB Debugging and turn it on, the phone disappears from File Explorer entirely.
I've gotten this to work before with my Moto X4.
I'm running Windows 10.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Did you set the default USB connection to "file transfer"?

I was actually looking for that, but couldn't find it. A search at the top of the interface found it.
So no, it wasn't set. I set it, and I got further. Thanks!
But not too much further.
What is now being shown in File Explorer, under "motorola one 5G ace" is:
android
Internal shared storage
I'm assuming "android" is my SD card, as that's how it seems to appear everywhere else on the phone. It also shows 115GB used, which is about right for that SD card, considering the junk I have on it.
Browsing under Internal shared storage is empty. Nothing is under there. ZIP.
Under "android" are a bunch of directories, such as .$recycle.bin$, Alarms, Android (yes, again), DCIM, Download, Movies, Podcasts, Ringtones, and a drive symbol.
Alarms has some small files. Everything else is empty.
So, I'm part way there. What can I check next? Permissions issue, perhaps?
Thanks

Ok folks, so I did a repair job on the msi, and it got "further". I could see some directories.
But then I decided to swap out the cable. And that seemed to do the trick. I'm now able to transfer over some huge files. Odd, as I thought the original cable was a good one, too.
Thanks for all your help.

More often than not, a bad cable or port on the PC end is the culprit. However, in my case, on my laptop, I have to uninstall and then reinstall the drivers after every time I have shut it down. All works well then until I shut down my laptop and then reboot the next day. Rinse and repeat. It's a head scratcher for sure. But at least I can get things working again.

Yeah, I've used that cable for other transfers, too. So I'm not sure what happened. Maybe this was the first time I used it in a USB 3.0 port, so it couldn't handle the higher speed. That's all I can think of.
I'll consider this the next time I have transfer issues.
