Recently, a small icon of a phone appeared in the top right corner next to the battery symbol. it is NOT the TTY symbol, it does not have anything underneath the symbol, it is just a phone symbol. I didn't change any settings or anything it just appeared there and i have no idea what it is

TTy. You can turn it off in settings.

Page 17-18 in the manual show the icons:

like i said above, it is NOT the tty symbol, its actually not even on the list of those symbols in the manual, I have no idea what it is. It looks exactly like the phone symbol on the phone button but in the top right corner next to the battery symbol.

The only thing that can appear next to the battery icon is the bluetooth or alarm clock icons, Are you sure that's not what you're seeing? If it's not that, you have "unauthorized" firmware or the phone itself is a knockoff. Where did you get it?

I have the same symbol after synching the first time since itunes has updated. I never saw an answer to this question yet it shows that it is answered. My phone has stopped recieving email since the phone showed up. does this symbol mean to call support?
