I recently installed MyWi and it worked fine! (I was able to connect to the internet on my computer thru the phone's 3G data service).

Then, I stopped MyWi, and connected the phone to my regular wifi network (at home).... so far so good

However, I can still see at the top of the phone the blue screen showing how much I'm downloading and uploading eventhough I'm not longer brodcasting the wifi thru my phone.

Is that normal?
 
MyWi Update!

Guys, MyWi MyWi Gets An Update. Adds Bluetooth Tethering! For more details, check this - MyWi..

Heard that they have fixed major bugs and about the logo - just kill it.. ; me too got similar problem some times before and now its fine..
 
Also worth mentioning, go into MyWi and turn off the pulsing blue bar in favor of the small icon.
Not only does it use considerably less battery, but it eliminates the bug you're talking about.
While you're there, decrease the broadcast strength too, and it will help your battery life even more :D
