How To Disable Find My Device "Device Found" Notification - Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

If someone has my phone I don't want them knowing I used the service and I now know where the phone is.
Just set my s6 up for the find my mobile service, and it's really cool. I just need a way to disable the "found my device" notification that comes up after I use that function from my PC.
The notification doesn't do anything so disabling it would only be a benefit.
I am rooted.

Android Device Manager??

Anyone using this? It locates my phone, tells me to visit Google settings, check the boxes and then I have the options to lock and erase. I've done all that and I just have the ring button available. It works. I can make it ring. Anyone know how to get the erase options to work?
Have it send a notification to your phone. When you click on the notification, you should see a checkbox or two that needs to be checked. Check whatever isn't checked on that page, since that is what gives ADM the admin access it needs on your device.

[Q] Hide SMS Callback Number

Has anyone figured out how to hide callback numbers on text messages? They only show up for some people that text me but unfortunately some of them text me quite a bit (family.) It's annoying because it shows up on every message and takes up a ton of space. I find displaying it irrelevant because I know what their number is, their name and picture are displayed at the top...
On my S3 I was able to make them not show by modifying csc/feature.xml but obviously I can't do that without root. I used to change <CscFeature_Message_EnableCBMessage> and <CscFeature_Message_CBMessage>. I've gone through every menu I can find in the text app and can't find anything.
I'm not talking about disabling my callback number, I know how to do that and it is. Also I've checked multiple of these friends/family member's phones and they either don't have an option to enable/disable or it's disabled. It's seems that they're normally Verizon users (that I know of) and it happens from smartphones and dumb phones. But it doesn't happen for everyone on Verizon.

You can only disable this with root access, which we don't have yet.

What exactly are you referring to here? Picture of said call back number?
You can have those people turn it off on their phones. I had to find that feature on my wife's phone and turn it off because I was getting the same thing. Every one of her texts had her number at the bottom till I turned it off on her phone. Other than that, you'll need root.

Device Location Shared?

I get a message "Device Location Shared" now when i use android device manger is there any way to turn off that message? Have already tried turning off notifications for device manger.
Seems silly to show that if phone is stolen they will know it's been located.

Android Wear iOS - Enable features not supported

As we know setting up the application using the iOS version of Android Wear removes certain features from the smart watch.
I have my LG Ubrane setup with my iPhone and indeed the wifi settings are not in the menu.
It seems that data remains on the filesystem even after a factory reset, when you configure the watch using Android it copies across the wpa_supplicant.conf.
When you reset the device and configure it using the iOS app the files remain so the wifi works, but theres no option to configure the menu.
If you run the following command it will bring the wifi settings into view:
Code:
adb shell am start -n com.google.android.apps.wearable.settings/com.google.android.clockwork.settings.wifi.WifiSettingsActivity
However i cant find a way of having this option enabled in the settings menu.
If setup the device using Android and used TWRP to backup the DATA folder, then setup using iOS and again TWRP to backup the DATA folder. Ive then done a diff but for the life of me I cant see where the settings is being configured. The APK files are the same so there must be a local file dictating whats enabled or not.
So my questions is, where on Android wear is the com.google.android.apps.wearable.settings packing getting its configuration?
Many Thanks
Hope you get this reply, as I have been working on this same thing or similar for a long time. I was able to get the watch to make calls from my iPhone, and the ability to receive and answer calls on the watch. The issue is that the only calls that come through that are answerable with the watch, are numbers that are not in my contact list. I've searched up and down, even got the android wear app on the iPhone to prompt for contacts sync, and the contacts do in fact sync. In the data folder of com.google.android.apps.wearable.settings, if you change the value of "setup skipped" to "1" instead of "2", you get the whole UI, the one you would get with a paired android phone. The same goes with "bluetooth mode" switching to '1" from "2". When either of these are switched, the watch still connects with the iPhone, but does not receive notifications (i.e. text messages, app notifications, etc.) Also, the google voice search stops working, yet you can manually check the weather fine with the weather app on the watch. I am using a jailbroken iPhone, and was able to get permission for contacts sync using the tweak "Flex 2". If you have found out anything new since you posted this, please let me know. Lastly, I was able to get the watch to make calls by having it paired for both BLE and standard bluetooth, so when you look at the list of paired/connected bluetooth devices on my iPhone, my watch shows up twice, both connected at the same time. I was also able to get the input methods (keyboard selection) to show up in settings, but am unable to make it happen again.
Hi,i also have my lg urbane connected to my iphone ,but there are no much things i can do.i cant even make a phone call from the watch.i am using ios 9.2 so i cant jailbreak it to use flex and get some tweaks.so what i want to ask is,if there is a way to make a phone call or even reply to text messages.please reply ,all iphone users want to find a solution for this problem.MAKE ANDROID WEAR

This is not an answer!!sorry for the trouble

Call & Message continuity

Where do I find the setting for this. It's on my S10 but not on the tablet.
At my S8 mobile I had to open settings menu from pulling down status bar. Then I pressed the search icon. I typed in
SMS
The phone will be searching a while before it popups. I also found in phone:
Settings -/ Advanced -/ Allow others SMS and Call
And one of the options showed SMS control which happens also to be Call and SMS message continuity. It shows only other devices like your tablet S5e or Tab S6 that have the same Samsung account.
First configure your tablet and enable it at your tablet first! Then start at your mobile phone the instructions. The menu in your mobile is somewhat hidden for now.
After success try calling your voicemail e.g. from your tablet and see what your mobile phone does.
Both devices must be online. So actually you have to read this guide twice. Would be nice if others post here too if it for them also works.
