Comment 8 for bug 1607291

And the bar indicator is getting very populated. For the network indicator we now have 3 icons, the wifi indicator can convergence between wifi connection and mobile data. The first time I saw it was confusing, because I was thinking that my only SIM card was having problems. We are repeating information...the user see the icon, then swipe down, and then see the same info. If the purpose is to warning the user, why not set this as a notification? Then people could enable or disable it in notifications panel. I think it would be a more elegant way of doing this.

1) turn on the phone;
2) insert SIM PIN;
3) A notification bobble appears saying NO SIM2 is detected;
4) User dismiss the notification.
5) If is annoying doing this on every reboot, disable system-settings notifications in notifications panel.

With this you match carriers requirements, and still provide a elegant way for that. As the way it is, the user is being 'almost forced' to add a second SIM card. Hope you're mind change on this
