[Q] Get rid of running app in notification bar? - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I find it very annoying that I get the notification that an app is running in the notification bar. I went to app manager in settings and check not to show notifications and it goes away, but the next time i reboot, it comes back. I can go back to app manager and check show notifications and then check no notifications again and it will go away. Does anyone know how to stop these notifications all together?

[APP] [>=4.0] Recurrent Notifications for any App

This app allows to configure recurrent notifications for each app that is using the standard Android notifications subsystem.
For each app, you can configure the ringtone, vibration, led color, number of repeats and interval of each notification.
Notifications are automatically cancelled if the monitorized app removes the notification.
Also, for each monitorized app you can configure if you like to be notified when a ongoing or clearable notification was created or if the created notification contains a specific text.
This app requires a special permission that needs to be activated after the install (go app settings in order to activate it).
Please, contact if you have troubles or questions.
Market Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ryosoftware.notificationsmanager
Compatibility:
Android 4.3 and higher for the standard notifications controller
Android 4.0 to 4.2 for the legacy notifications controller (based on accessibility permissions)
Thank you, been looking for something like this that actually works for a long time, just downloaded it, and all is working flawlessly at the moment, using the custom notification on my Yahoo email app, I can use what sound I desire now.
Thanks very much, will be upgrading to the paid version very soon.
Just a quick question though, is there anyway to disable the app notification icon in the status bar.
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for your comments. Appreciate it!
You can disable the statusbar icon clicking settings and checking the "Statusbar icon" preference
Thanks again
Your welcome, I have tried what you suggested to turn off the notification icon, but for some reason it is still visible, not a problem though, it soon disappears after I have read my notification.
Thanks again

Thanks, updated app about an hour ago, still works great, but having selected no icon in the settings, when i get an email, i get no notification sound now, it still works so well i have updated to the paid version of the app.
Again not to worry, it works brilliantly if i have to put up with that icon i will as the icon only pops up when i receive an email, then disappears after i have read it.
Thanks again.

I've got a few questions
1. does this app can control LG G2 back LED
2. does this app usage impact battery life?

App is nice. Has a lot of potential.
Before bying the pro version:
I have set GMail as the app to work with recurrent notification.
When I set the "Recurrent notification" to silent sound I still hear the sound of the "original notification" as normal. Any workaround ?
Never gave it a chance due to app permissions
I'm worried about the permissions this app wants to be allowed. All text apart from passwords? Still enables it to collect credit card details etc.
Nah ah.
Sorry but I won't be buying this until i can test with more then 1 app (2 would be enough to test good). Also would be nice to be able to change the blinking speed of the led its too fast for my taste.

Sorry, this app uses the standard led API, that refers to the standard phone led. I think standard phone led is the front led. Sorry
This app has no effects in battery life. Service is sleeping all the time except when a notification is started.

You need to set silent also for notification in gmail.
This app develops notification and recurrent notification for any app, but you need to silent the stock notification in order to don't have double notifications.

Explain for permissions
RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED: In order to receive boot completed at startup and initiate the service
VIBRATE: To allow vibrate
INTERNET and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Required by Google Ads
BILLING: To manage PRO version
READ_PHONE_STATE: Get events when phone call started and ended and silent notifications when in phone call
BIND_NOTIFICATION_LISTENER_SERVICE: (Jelly Bean and Kitkat) To receive notifications and interactuate
BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE: (Ice Cream Sandwich) To receive notifications and interactuate
You refer to a standard Android message that is showed when you enable accessibility permissions to any, but this app is not collecting none, and the Inet access is only used
by the Ads library (by Google). We are not collecting or sharing with none.

Sure. We can add vibration patterns in next release.
Sorry, more than one app is a PRO feature.
I wanted to disable vibration and sound for Viber and also set the LED to purple on my Oppo Find 5, but for some reason it did not do anything.
Any ideas?

Hi,
Have you entered "Notifications Manager" app settings and activated accessibility access or notifications access?
Is needed to activate the app.
Also, you need to disable notifications in Viber and enable notifications for Viber in the Notifications Manager app.
(I assume Viber is generating a statusbar notification when a call)
Thanks

Ohh, now I feel dumb Thanks, it works like a charm!
Seems a good app I can't wait till I try it
Sent from my EMVIRUS Sensation XL ! using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Good looks! Gonna be keeping up with the progress of this app.
I've tried to use it on galaxy s4 with 4.4.2 and it does work for notification but LED does not work. I've tried with different colors but only use default one.
Any advice?
I cant seem to get this to work with a Nexus 5
It's too bad you can only test it with one app. What if multiple apps cause a conflict somewhere, how would we be able to identify that without purchasing the app? The trial version should be the full product with a time limit of like a week or something. Don't be stingy. =/

[Q] BajaROM: Any way to disable a specific icon in the Notification Bar?

Hey Guys,
I'm still running BajaROM (4.4.2) (SM-N900V).
Was wondering if there is any way to disable a specific app icon from the notification bar? Going into the app settings and turning off all notifications for the app isn't really helping, as I still need to be notified by vibration or LED flash when there's activity there. I just want to get the annoying icon out of the bar (the app is Kik). The app has options to turn off vibration and LED flash, but not to disable the icon.
Was hoping there was a way to block just the icon within Baja or to go into the app files and hack it. Anyone have any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks!

What is running in the background?

i am enclosing two screenshots to show that there is only one thing in the corner that seems to be on. also nothing in the notifications bar except text me and battery saver and i tried deleting both of them and the notification sound still comes through every 5 to ten minutes, any ideas? does this symbol look familiar to anyone? thanks
What's Running
Hi gorelow,
Can't say that I have seen the symbol before myself, and it certainty doesn't look like a default android symbol. Looks like it's for a 3rd party app installed on the phone. Can you remember when you first saw the symbol and if you had installed any apps around the time of it appearence. Also might be a good idea to look at your current 3rd party running apps in settings and just force close a few, that you think could be linked to the notification and if you close the app that the notification is linked to it would dissappear telling you what app.
Merik
You can try to deactivate the notifications for one app by another in settings-->apps-->appXy-->show notifications and see when the notification disappears. Then you'll know which app is responsable for this icon. Hope this helps.

You're referring to the single icon on the left of your notification bar? Looks to me like the icon for Notification Toggles app - you can change the visibility of it in the settings for the app.
Thank you. It got rid of the icon. I've never experienced that app making a notification sound. I'll keep trying to figure out how sonething that doesnt show up can mak e a notification sound. Thanks again

Getting rid of heads up notifications while phone is unlocked?

I'm not sure if this is an LG or Nougat thing, but it's seriously annoying. Whenever I use the phone and I get a notification of any kind, it pops down from the status bar (why can't it just go straight to the 2nd screen???) and persists for a few seconds unless I action it or dismiss.
Is there a setting within notifications or apps themselves to make them go straight to the 2nd screen?

Mine pop into the 2nd screen. What app is causing it? I know Textra was doing that until I disabled the pop up notification

Snapchat and Whatsapp are examples. What sort of notification settings do you have? Are you silencing any apps?

Not silencing anything, I just adjusted the Textra to not show the floating reply.
I don't use Whatsapp so can't speak to any settings in there and my Snapchat I have set to Vibrate only(turned wake screen off). Don't get a lot of Snapchat chats so never noticed if its a pop up notification or not

Weird - I found out that "Silencing" notifications is the only way to get them to not pop up... but then I don't get a vibrate.
System UI is a "hidden" feature of Nougat that LG decided to axe, which is extremely frustrating because it has the EXACT functionality someone needs to have full control over their notifications.

Yeah I want that system UI because in it you can do percent in battery notification so it's not next to the battery
It actually started with Marshmallow and was pretty popular due to the simple tweaks it can do that everyone wants. Unfortunately it seems to be more of a carrier issue with disabling it. Regardless, disabling peeking should be a basic option in settings from day 1. Not a super hidden feature in Andriod M and a above with no guarantee of staying. Textra is nice enough to have its own setting. Why other apps do not is baffling.
Someone finding a way to get to the System UI tuner settings would be amazing. As it is now there doesn't seem to be a way to turn off ONLY peeking/heads up notifications that I have been able to find. Maybe HeadsOff will be compatible with N before long.
I can't reply to any notifications in my notifications panel. How do I turn it back on?

Hi, i've using oficial Oreo for a day now, and i have the same problem that in the previews, the annoying heads up notifications. I can't find the way to disable them in the settings, i did it through adb comands and use the floatify app but it have a problem with de notification bar, it overlap and it's annoying as well, i tried some other similar apps but they aren't optimiced for Oreo, do anyone of you know how to add a few seconds to the stock heads up? or an app that doesn't have so many problems, or i just have to wait a while?
in android 7 there was level notification and it was very useful but i didn't find it now in android Oreo !!

When you say "heads up notification", are you referring to peeking where there's a short pop up message over the status bar? For example, every time I get a message on Facebook Messenger, there's peeking. If so, that frustrated me as well and I loved it when I could turn if off with Nougat's Power Notifications controls.
I finally found a way to disable peeking; I had to turn off sound by going to Facebook Messenger's App Info - App Notification - disable [Allow Sound]. I already use Lightflow to customize sounds/vibrations from my Nougat days. Once I disabled [Allow Sound], peeking stopped but I could still hear sound/vibration through my customization in Lightflow.
Problem solved for me.
Feel disgusting to heads up notification too.
try "Gaming Do Not Disturb"
I open it all the time to ban heads up notification
Here is how to set notification on oreo. go to setting > app And notification > then select your app for which you want to turn off or reduce importance of notification. If you select preference urgent / high / medium and low. then low means no sound no visual notification and urgent mean sound and popup.
