i can't find what i should be changing in the kyocera wireless pst service programming that should be getting rid of the 1x display. someone said it's under "data", i got that from searching everywhere.....but what do i change within there????

what do i change it to? i think i've tried changing all of them

Whever you see 1X active just rename it to whatever you want it to be.Not exactly sure what tab it's under.I changed mine.

using winhex or kyocera software???

i think i misunderstood what the removing of 1x is. i have 1x on the top right hand corner of the screen which i assumed could be removed, maybe so that the wallpaper would then magically occupy the entire screen vs. cutting off a centimeter on the top of the screen.

but, from doing some more research it appears as though the removal is for people who have 1x in the middle of the screen. that's not my issue.

am i right? i'm stuck with the wallpaper ending a centimeter from the top. no way to remove that 1x, or the little target looking icon?

you are correct
the target icon is the gps locator

well on Verizon SE47 - my 1X is in the upper left to the right of the 4 bar signal meter then to the right of that is the TXT mesage indicator/ VM indicator and then the GPS target symbol and finally then to the farthest right is the battery power. SO, removing that 1X symbol (if even possible) would not fix your desire as I see it as there will always be icons in that area. it would be nice to remove some as it seems worthless to have that 1X and the GPS icon there, but I do no tthink we can.

no way to remove it. sure isn't useless though. 1x means you are enjoying benefits of a 3g high speed network, such as wap content, faster sms, and location based services catered by your carrier.

This is how to remove the 1x writing in the middle of your screen. You will need to use Kyocera PST software. Launch the programming software and read your phone.

Click on the data tab
If you want the 1X indicator to work, but remove the text, then highlight the value beside Idle Scrn 3G Data Text and delete it. This will allow your 1X indicator to function, but remove the text out of the middle of the screen.
If you don't want any type of 1X indicator, then set the Idle Scrn 3G Data Info to FALSE. This will have your inidicator show D anytime you are in digital coverage regardless if it is 1X or not.

Write changes to your phone and you are ready.

You can simply modify the text line and have it say whatever you want. ie High Speed Data Available, Fast Connection or just leave it blank it you don't want any text on your screen.
