how to remove TV icon from the notification bar?
 

I see a small icon that looks like a TV with an exclamation mark next to it, in the notification var at the top of the screen. Presumably it's telling me that I haven't subscribed to Verizon's TV service. Any way to get rid of this thing?

not at this time. most of what you are posting has been discussed already :)

I believe this is the Million dollar question. I haven't seen anyway to remove it yet -- no fix here or on XDA. I'm not sure if you could use a reg edit or not. It's probably going to take a custom ROM to completely remove it.

It is definately annoying and useless especially for someone like me who will never use the TV service.

yeah it would be cool to get rid of this notification since I am not using it..

Im not sure but does anyone ask HTC or Verizon these sort of questions? I mean shouldn't they do what the customer wants? I have asked but get no answers. YES that little TV sucks I dont want or need it.

if you have ever been to the Verizon forums you would see that Verizon doesn't care enough about thier customers to respond to any questions or requests. They have HORRIBLE customer service.

I can't wait for custom roms.

Typically when calling tech support for something like this, they will assist you in changing whatever items are available within the standard system menus. When it comes to asking them how to hack their product to remove unwanted items, they'll simply tell you it's not possible lol.

I suspect it's a dll file loaded at startup in the current ROM that ties into the Mediaflo receiver in the device. Basically unless someone finds a way to hack said DLL from loading, or obviously we get an unlocker and custom ROMs with it stripped out, I don't think we'll be able to remove it.

The icon doesn't annoy me so much, it's the fact that I can't turn off the radio for it that bothers me. Having it on and constantly searching for a signal can't be helping battery life at all.

I dont know how to remove it nor stop it from loading at start up but I can kill the exe from using 600K worth of memory. After the exe is killed you will get a TV icon with an X in it. :D
