The home zone icon uses a rather strange SMS feature.
I don't know details. But there are several message types.
Like messages which pop up without asking the user to open it.
Or like the O2 logo. Which is a SMS with (smehow) a emebedded pictogram ebedded. Which your phone shows in some status bar or the background.
This icon can only be re-set if you get a special delete SMS.

AFAIK there are no such things as executable code in SMS. There are specially formatted SMS that set or recent certain flags. For example, there are standardized flags (and ways to set and reset them) for voicemail and fax icons. O2 is probably using an undocumented (reserved) flag bit for their home icon.
