symbols only displaying after another key is pressed.

Hi Alex,

Virus and malware could be one of the possible reasons why you're having trouble with symbols on your keyboard. To isolate the issue, we'd like to ask you a few questions:

• Have you made any recent changes to your device before the issue started?
  
• Did you encounter any error messages while typing the symbols?
• Can you tell us the troubleshooting steps that you've performed?

Meanwhile, we suggest scanning your device using an antivirus program and see if it's infected by a virus.

We'll keep an eye out for your response.

5140 with "handbag" symbol top left of display

I have a 5140 with Orange PAYG sim card. A symbol resembling a handbag / clothes iron has appeared in the top left of the screen above the signal display. I work for a company with a Nokia service centre but no-one had ever seen this symbol before. It
is not listed in either the 5140 or 5140i user guide.

Any ideas?
