Help Notification Icon Help

[gaiakai]

Hi,

First of all, I apologize if this has been asked in this section (Galaxy S2) before - doesn't show up on the auto-search thing under the title tab if it has. And I freaking love this phone!

So here's my problem:

There's a notification at the top left corner of my screen, and I can't figure out which app it's for, if any. There aren't any active notifications in my phone's "drawer". I'd like to find out which app or whatever it's notifying me of, so I can get rid of it. It's annoying the crap out of me lol.

Sometimes when I use screen capture or switch to a different screen (music), it goes away, and rebooting my phone removes it. But then it comes back sooner or later.

Here are screenshots:

Top left, orange notification:

When I drag down to check:

Any help is greatly appreciated!

It just means you have 2 notifications (ie.. 2 text messages or 1 text message and an update) and its displayed like that because you have to many icons on your notification bar.

That's weird though, my text notifications are attached to my messaging icon on the bottom "home row" and don't pop up in the notification bar...

Ooh wait! ....

NM, was going to say Menu>Display>Screen Display>Event Notifications,but I don't think that is it

I checked my text/social hub stuff for any unread messages, nothing =/

But yeah it might be because I have too many notifications at the top, I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks!

Is the Event Notifications setting the one that displays the new text message on my lock screen for me to swipe to read?

When you pull down the notification bar you can actually scroll it. If yo do you see the other notifications that are there.

I know I can scroll through the notification bar - there aren't any notifications to clear to remove that orange number circle thing. JayC was right, just too many icons at the top (charging, usb, vibrate, 4g, juicedefender, gps, etc).

Thanks though

On this note......I upgraded my firmware. Before I did so, I could "clear" any notifications if I wished simply by touching the "clear" button. After the update, the "clear" button has gone away. Is there a way to get rid of the notifications once I've seen them without actually having to fix the issue that made them pop up in the first place?

Yes, you question would be "why", but I get notifications that it's "my turn" for a game such as Words with Friends, and if I don't have time to play, I'd rather just dismiss the icon and move on.

Thanks!
