For some reason my BBM app keeps getting killed off and I don't get notifications. I have no task killer and I don't have the option to hide the notification Icon enabled. Any ideas?
I want to block camera and mimic access to certain apps but everything I find doesn't support kitkat. What is my best option? And also, why aren't my Facebook messages coming to the notification bar?

I'm not sure about the Facebook notifications but I flashed the alliance rom and it has "App ops" built in which lets you restrict individual permissions an app has access to
Hi there!
I am trying to squeeze every bit of batt from my device... So, if I go to settings, sound and notifications, app notifications and block all those I don´t expect any updates, will it keep them from checking?
For example, if I go to app notifications and block tapatalk... will it keep the app from checking for updates and thus not using the internet, not waking up the device etc and would that spare the battery or would that only block the "displaying" of the info, but the app would still check / wake up the device to check?
Thanks!
Disabling notifications will do exactly that, just disable the notification from appearing on your notification bar. Your phone will still be syncing data and checking for notifications, you just wont receive them.
In order to stop the phone from checking, you need to turn off sync for whichever apps you're concerned with. You can usually do this from directly within the app, or by going to settings>accounts.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That said, if the goal is to keep from spending batt, I have to go into each app and disable their sync/notification options....
Thank you Sir.
Yes, and if there is no option from that within the app, check Settings>Accounts, it should be there.
Goodluck
I don't S use calendar. I have disabled notifications within the app and then disabled its permission to access the various things such as Calendar/Contacts (basically disable all)
But I am still getting ?Touchwiz notification telling me I won't be getting S Planner notifications (I bloody know Samsung)
Anyone know how to stop this.
I have even stopped Touchwiz notifications
Try pressing and holding the notification itself, then you may be able to stop it
I am unable to disable Group notifications and Message notifications under Chats. This setting is under Settings > Apps & Notifications > Notifications > Whatsapp. If I disable after some time I find slider is again green and notifications show up. Is there no permanent way to disable notifications as sometimes notifications are annoying as they keep filling up on the home page. Thanks
You can disable the notifications completely under Apps & notifications -> notifications and choosing the app you wish and turning off notifications as a whole or turn it off for specific category.
Hi. Ya thats what I have done. If you read my query I have disabled group and regular notifications yet after some time it shows up under notifications and when I go to check settings they revert back to allowed (Green Dot). It says as Grey Dot only for some time. Is this an issue with all android devices or specific to this device?
you can just disable the notification entirely in the application setting.
