it looks like the HTC battery meter. did you install anything HTC? check that and uninstall if so, i bet that's what it is! :P

nah I haven't installed any HTC things :/

I mean, my phone isn't acting odd or anything, it's just a head scratcher as to what this could be. I haven't installed anything in a while and I just started noticing it recently.

its prob just there by mistake (reg edit, sys change, ETC....) tap hold it to see if an option there will let you hide it.

tapped and held and nothing happened :/

What I was really hoping for is someone to go "Oh you dummy, thats BLAH.EXE or something" but its kind of funny that this is such a mysterious object to everybody.

You prob enabled it in Advanced Configuration tool. There's a option in the tool to enable a battery meter.

good luck

Well that's partially what it was. Advanced configuration tool's Today setting had "Show power icon: " set to Yes.

I don't remember setting it so perhaps it was by accident. Thanks for everyone's help.

More importantly, why don't you use ClearType?

To be honest, when I turned it off, things seemed snappier.

some people have gotten stock phones set up a little different from most. so i wouldn't be surprised if it came like that. But if it appeared afterwards then it was probably the user :P
