[Q] Facebook app icon bubble notification??

So this notification is really pissing me of. Why you ask? Because the usual notifications also pop up in the drag down notifications area. Once i click the notification there it doesn't disappear from the icon. The bubble one remains and to remove it I have to open the app through the app icon on my desktop. Do you guys know how to disable this feature? I only want to use android built in notifications. Im running stock rom, stock kernel and no root.
Thank you.

You can remove the bubble by dragging it to the bottom of the screen to the X that appears. You can also disable the bubble notifications by opening Messenger Settings > Notifications and uncheck "Chat heads".

Maybe I'm a little slow but I cant seem to drag the bubble. All I drag is the facebook icon. Also messenger settings are grayed out in the facebook app

This is what it looks like.

Go to settings > accounts > Sync apps with Facebook > User Name > Remove account

Removed it, nothing happened unfortunately Bubble still appears on icon. What did that account do? Sync apps with facebook? I had disabled the sync for that one some time ago. Didn't really understand what it did.

Smaller Notifications in pull down Menu

Hello everybody,
Is there any possibility to make the notification text smaller or minimize the whole section?
Because I have some apps running which need background service and keeping them in notification area prevents them to get closed. Apps like fingersecurity or smart app lock.
But it's too big. It takes too much space.
I didn't find anything useful.
Greetings

A little suggestion.
In S5 settings/applications, uncheck notifications for apps that need permanent icons but keep them active in your standalone applications settings.
Icons and notifications will dissapear but your apps will be active
For example, in TSF shell that I use too, keep system persistent in its own settings, but uncheck notifications in phone settings/application.
(it works also for all in one gestures ).
Try and report, but must work (it does at least for me).
Sorry for poor english, hope you understand what I mean
Best regards
Franky

Absolutely know what you mean. got the same thought. But wanted to keep them in notification and make em smaller.
For now I will make it the way you suggested

Have a look to xposed modules if you're root, several ones allow to change notifications aspects, app settings to change DPI ratios (here on general settings, be aware, all will be change ) or maybe wanam xposed in notification panel options (not sure for the 2nd one, but try to change font format option).
Good luck
Franky
EDIT: OH, in wanam and notification panel options, you can also hide the keyboard icon as well :laugh:

Hi all! Any update regarding this? I didn´t find any Xposed module that can help with this issue and I have 4 apps that are taking lots of space in the notification area!
Thanks in advance,
WR

Notification Settings (FIX)

For some bizarre reason they have decided to omit Notification Settings in the Settings Menu. If you have an Android Wear watch and you want to change Notification Priorities for certain apps, this is a must, as well as many of the other Notification Settings.
Anyway the short term fix is to install an app called QuickShortcutMaker from the Play Store, then open it, search for com.android.settings.Settings$NotificationSettingsActivity and create a Shortcut for it.
There are others shortcuts that may be useful, another post has mentioned it to get rid of the 2nd sim icon. If I find any others, I'll let you know, and if anyone else finds other useful ones, please post.

Is that any solution to change Notification fonts and colour as I it's unusable to read Gmail Notification ?

Nope, only way to improve that is to play around with the Themes - try changing them using the app that is included called Themes.

I use honor 7 and the problem appeared notifications do not work, but I know half the solution, when you click on the box in the bottom of the screen Close all programs from the bottom up, do not close every program alone

many other things you can get with "QuickShortcutMaker" at your Honor 7 you will find here:

This is very confusing for typical android users, as this phone tries to save battery by closing all apps, which is a good thing for battery, but not for notifications, so it is very important for the apps that you want to receive notifications, you must protect them - go to Settings, Protected Apps, and turn on the ones you want to protect and stay alive.

Getting the Most Out of the Built-In Phone Manager App

Getting the Most Out of the Built-In Phone Manager App
You may have noticed the Phone Manager app on your Honor 8. If you've never bothered to mess with this app, I highly recommend it. There are a lot of ways that the app can help improve the way your phone operates. Here are some of the best ways to use this app.
System Optimization
The System Optimizer will scan your phone to find apps running in your memory. You can select individual apps to be cleared making your phone faster. You can make this process faster by whitelisting the apps that you don't want to be cleared. The next time you need to clear your cache, you can simply hit "clean" and all the apps that aren't on the whitelist will be closed.

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Traffic Manager
Monitor the data used by each app to see which ones are using up the most of your 4G allowance. This section will also have the option to setup a portable Wi-Fi hotspot.
Harassment Filter
Harassment Filter is a very smart way to sort out all the incoming communication that you don't want. You can add phone numbers and contacts to the sms and call blacklist. Not only that but you can add keywords to be blocked as well. Any message sent to you with one of the blacklisted words will be blocked.
Head into the settings in the top right corner to adjust your notifications for the harassment filter. Your phone can be set to notify you every time a message or call is intercepted.
Notification center
The notification center gives you complete control over what apps are allowed to push notifications and where they're allowed to appear. Go to an app and toggle status bar, banner and lock screen to determine how the notifications for that app will show up. You can also assign "priority display" where a notification can interrupt whatever you're doing at the time.
App Lock
Set four digit passwords for specific apps. I've got a lock on my photos, hangouts and snapchat.
Protected Apps
When you turn your screen off, many apps are suspended to save battery time. When this happens, data will not push to these apps so many times you wont receive notifications from them. By default, many apps are already protected so they don't get suspended when the screen is off. Go into this menu to see what apps are on the list. Add or remove apps as you see fit.

There seems to be a much deeper depth in the phone manager than what i first expected. Thank you for the write-up. +1

Thank you for this in-depth explanation, much appreciated

Is there very similar app for the non Honor devices in playstore?

How do i get rid of these orange circles on some of my game launcher icons?

I am assuming these are to say i have notifications for these games but i do not have any unread notifications and these orange circles have been next to my games for about a month or more now, is there a way to get rid of them, or do they mean something else?
I have done a pic below of it:

This was driving me mad today!
To get rid of them, open game launcher, click on the menu (three lines) at the top left. Click on game notifications and then long press them to delete them. For some reason game launcher keeps a copy of any game notifications you get stored at this location and that annoying orange circle won't go away until you manually clear them
I literally spent an hour going through android settings to turn all global notification badges off before figuring this out.
