Both WiFi and Mobile Data Icons In Status Bar

Everyone relax, this is normal with any new update from Verizon, the reason you are getting both icons at the top is because certain Verizon apps that are being updated only use 4G LTE, it is a security issue implemented by Verizon, it should go away after those apps are updated, also if you notice anytime any data is being transmitted there is two small arrows beneath the WiFi or the LTE icon that are flashing "transmitting the data", so you know if your WiFi or your Verizon Data service is transmitting the data..

Still sucks the battery down like chocolate milk thru a straw. I talked to a tier 2 tech and he said to turn off data when using wifi and vice versa, but I told him I had never had to do that before this update came out. He also told me that samsung know about this and are supposed to be working on a patch. Hope it comes soon, I can't even send mms unless I turn off wifi and turn on data. Its nuts.
 
Here is the fix people, go to settings>Application Manager>scroll right to ALL, now scroll down to Caller Name ID and DISABLE it, problem solved, that's what this extra little app that Verizon decided to bake into this ROM does, they want to keep track of your mms, LOL.

Note: Do not thank me, thank gandalf607 on the Verizon message boards, this same issue and fix has also been posted on the XDA message boards.

Great find! I did not want the service anyway, so not a big deal to disable it. Thanks to you for repeating it here, and Gandalf607 for the solution.

It says disabling could cause other apps to not function properly. What if doing this messes up other apps. Is there a way to reverse it.

If you find an app that does not work, I would think re-enabling the Caller ID app would work.

That is just the stock pop up every time you disable any app. To reverse it you go to the bottom of the list in “All apps" and enable it back on again. Generally, all apps that are not safe to disable will not allow you to disable...generally but not full proof.

I have no idea what happened to my post but here goes again...

That pop-up comes up every time you disable any app. If you need to enable it back again, you will find it at the bottom of the list in “all apps" and you can enable it from there. Generally, not 100%, but generally apps that can be disabled are safe to disable... if you're not rooted.

Do NOT worry, it's a standard message, you will be fine. You can always re-enable the App, by going back to All, all the disabled apps are always all the way at the bottom.
 
Anyways, like the new update, but went back to my Buttery Smooth CM10.1 RC4/JB 4.2.2:icon_ banana:. Did a backup using TWRP to my external Micro SD card, just in case I like to give the stock ROM another run "doubt it very much though":biggrin:
 
Here's a tip before you disable the Caller ID app. Make sure you go into the app and end the free trial or else once the free trial is over, you'll be getting charged $2.99 a month, whether or not you have the app running or disabled. There's also an option within the app to remove it which will take it away from your app drawer, but will still show up in your application mananger.

What free trial, unless I agree to try something on my own accord, there should be no charge to my or anyones account, it's not like we downloaded the Application ourselves, it was preloaded by Verizon.
