Iphone 5 "crescent moon" icon always on.
I noticed this morning the "crescent moon" icon is always on no matter if the Do Not Disturb program/function is turned on or off.
All calls seem to be coming through though.
I did read some of the other related posts and thought this was suppose to change as of Jan 7th, but I just noticed today.
Wondering if anyone has an answer to this, or if they have the same problem.
thanks,

The pinwheel is only visible when the Bluetooth Settings panel is visible. It means that the phone is in Pairing mode. If the settings panel is not visible it is not in Pairing mode.
The phone will LISTEN for connections as long as it is not powered off. In this way if you turn on your headset or get in your car the phone will connect whether you are actively using the phone or not. Listening uses no measurable power, so it will not affect your battery life. Once it connects it will use about 3 mw of power for as long as it is connected. As the battery is 1800 mw that means that if Bluetooth was the only thing using power the battery would last for 600 hours. So even an active Bluetooth connection will not significantly affect battery life.

Activity icon always running on certain websites
When viewing certain websites in Safari (such as AllThingsD) the Activiy icon is always spinning. If I switch to another tab, the icon will disappear after a few seconds, but will return as soon as I switch back to the offending websites. Is there some kind of information being constantly pulled from my ipad? Why do only certain websites cause this? I'm concerned about what the sites are doing and how it affects my battery drain, since the activity is continuous.
Thanks in advance :-)
CJAppears there's another thread on this issue. Search for the thread "Iphone 5s Network activity icon always on" for discussion.

TS4510 'Do not disturb' moon icon still stay on after my scheduled time.
I thought the 'Do not disturb' issue should have solved until I recently slide the 'Do Not Disturb' back to 'ON' and found that the moon icon still stay on after my scheduled time. Restarted the iphone5 (already running iOS 6.1.3) still showed the moon icon.
If the 'Do Not Disturb' is slide to OFF, with a schedule period being set (e.g. 22:00 - 07:00). The moon icon still appear from 22:00, no noise.
If the 'Do Not Disturb' is slide to ON, moon icon always show, phone still ring outside the scheduled period.
Is it what the 'Do Not Disturb' designed to work like this now?
Thank you.'Do Not Disturb' ON
under Notification -> 'Do Not Disturb' Scheduled ON
at schedule time, moon icon APPEAR (~10 seconds delay), ring NOT from 'Favorites' PASS THROUGH
'Do Not Disturb' OFF
under Notification -> 'Do Not Disturb' Scheduled ON
at schedule time, moon icon APPEAR (~10 seconds delay), right NOT from 'Favorites' PASS THROUGH
'Do Not Disturb' ON
under Notification -> 'Do Not Disturb' Scheduled OFF
moon icon APPEAR
Allow Calls From 'Favorites', (test phone not on favorites)
phone STILL RINGS!
I think the above tests should proof that the 'Do Not Disturb' is not working except showing a moon icon. -
Got a crescent moon shaped icon in upper bar on home screen?
I've just gotten a crescent moon shaped icon in the top bar on the home screen of my iPhone 4. Running iOS 6.0.1. Anyone know what this is for, and/or where I can find a master key of iPhone icons?
You should probably start your own thread for this. The thread you posted to is both old, and unrelated to your question.Would also help if post a little more detail.

- Have you tried a reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Try syncing the iPod to your computer. Then delete from iTunes and sync. that should delete it from the iPod. Then redownload it. -
I have been trying to recover or reset my password, but the reset email never comes, so I can't change my password. I tried to open a new itunes account to assign my iphone 4 to, but it always defaults to the old itunes account?
Me too! I tried to reset many times the password of my daughter’s id but she never received an email with instructions. :-(

I have a problem with my iphone 4. My 3G always stays activated but I lose my network signal. The bars all get lost and I'm not able to receive / send sms, mms or phone calls. Could you guys please help me fix this problem? Ios 5.1.1
I haven't gotten a new sim card because the problem has been presenting itself in various cards not only mine. So far, all I've done is reset my network settings.
Last night, I turned off the 3G tab and it had all the signal bars. Today, I did the network reset and it's working apparently. But like I said before, previously the bars just disappear and the iphone only has the 3G activated. -
My Ipod-touch was ios5 when I bought. You recommend to upgrade ios6, because set-up icon always shows me "+". For that on facebook I can't see wall photos. So I want my ipod touch to be back as initial version ios5. How can I do? please tell me.
Unfortunately, I don't think it solved the problem. I believed the new iPod thing solved the weird behavior problem, but after that the button stopped working.
Do you know how to contact Genius? Because I don't think I can find a store in my area, when I tried to. -
