Driod Status Icons

[tarheel929]

Hello, I looked up the status icons and could not find this one on the list. I have an icon that looks like a headset or bluetooth headset with two "))" to the right of the headset. Anyone know what this is or how to get rid of it?

Thanks,
Will

I could be wrong, but I believe what you're seeing is the "silent mode" icon. A few times now, I've accidentally turned the ringer volume down all the way when the rocker switch gets pushed while in my pocket. It was driving me nuts trying to figure out what that strange new icon was since I never put my phone on silent. Hope this helps.

No problem, glad I could help. Besides, it was a learning experience for me.

I'm having this same problem. Have you figured out what it is?

As quoted from the link: That is the Icon for the Hearing Aid.
Menu > Settings > Call > Hearing Aids
If activated it will make the sound in a voice call a little louder, i use it for work, as i am a firefighter at an airport and there is always some noises that make it harder to hear the person i am talking to.

It was very helpful having clear, and precise instructions, I finally got rid of the symbol.
