Action Center tells me that Airplane Mode is on: enter image description here

Whereas, The WiFi menu tells me that it is not:

So, is it On or Off? EDIT: It isn't that simple... most devices will let you turn WiFi on even if Airplane mode is on. [Emirates offers WiFi on its planes :D ]

Both WiFi and Airplane Mode on: WifiAir

  • I should pay more attention when writing wise-ass comments. Should have said a foolproof way to tell that airplane more is off is if they confiscate your device and handcuff you to the seat on the airplane.

The WiFi symbol is not showing as an aeroplane, so it isn't on.

Why that is happening I'm not sure, but I would try rebooting and seeing if it persisted. Otherwise, just a strange graphical bug, but nothing to worry about.

This is how it looks when correctly activated:

  • @RahulBasu Indeed, but the icon stays as an Airplane icon. Will change my answer.

  • I have the same issue. I think it's a graphical bug.
