Default New Passenger side status icon

A few days after I finally got the 3.0 update (finally!!) this circle-slash icon presented itself and has been there ever since. Everything appears to be working exactly as it should, but I can't find any documentation for what this icon means. Was hoping someone here had seen it or had some ideas.

@Nick4 - Total guess here. The top is the charge of the phone. The middle is the signal strength of the SIMM within the Defender. The bottom is the signal strength of the phone if you are using the new 3.0 features to run CarPlay, whatever off of the phone. Since it's not connected to the phone to run PiviPro, etc you have the circle slash. If that's not true then my second guess would be that the bottom is for the second simm and you don't have the hotspot / added internet pack.

Its the wireless charging icon. If you have your phone in the symbol changes to an electric bolt. When the cell phone battery is full, it switches to an electric bolt in a circle. My guess is either you don't have your phone on the charging pad to charge or you don't have wireless charging.

It is definitely not wireless charging, that icon still pops up and goes away whenever I am charging. This circle-slash is there constantly and slides over whenever I am using the charger.

It doesn't seem to be Android Auto related as it is there regardless of AA running or not.

I think GrouseK9 is correct, I bet it is the second sim card, which I don't have. I planned to have it, but the dealer didn't include it in my order..whole other story. It's annoying that it is there constantly if that is the case.

@Nick4 If you watch the video from PowerfulUk (
) where Simon discusses replacing USB-B chargers with USB-C's, you can see that he's added a SIM to his (start at 1:35). He tries to gloss over it. It appears (and I think I've heard) that they can be added after manufacture. You'll have to search more, but I do think it is a possible after-build re-add. Beyond that, I don't know much about the process - so good luck if you take the journey. Post pics here!

On my screen that line shows WiFi signal strength. Not sure if that’s relevant.

I remember Damian D (JLR Product Manager) described it but the YouTube video was pulled. Somewhere out there is a transcript but I’m unable to search right now. I recall he describes the three.

Here's one: https://www.fpaceforum.com/threads/p...-coming.48833/ Read the entire thread as there are some additional postings that may be of interest.

Same transcript, but different thread w/ different "chatter": https://www.ipaceforums.co.uk/thread...vi-3-0-0.5073/

But, if you want to see what our "brethern" are saying about the transcript, go here: https://www.defender2.net/forum/topi...hlight=dinning. I could be totally whacked, but I imagine that most of the folks on this forum are N.A. based with a large contingent of AU and EU while that one is much more heavy England based. Just my thoughts but it's a great source of info.


I think there is another video re: the topic. Couldn't find. I have "weak Kung Fu" with internet searches.
