Is it possible to remove the recommended earphone shortcuts that appear in the drop down notification when headphone are connected?

I would like to know the same thing. On my S2 (JB4.1) there is a menu option to disable this (System / Accessory / Audio Applications). They seem to have removed this option on the S4 - it's not on the Accessory options screen...

Could someone explain to me what the "recommended shortcuts (earphones)" actually is and where can I configure it? I like the idea, yet I'd like to configure it.
But I can't seem to find a setting or app. Is it really connected to a "Page buddy" app? I have no such app on my SGS4.

when you plug in earphones to ur galaxy u get a set of recommanded apps to run in the status bar i have it on my galaxy s2 but on my s3 can't find it

OK, I've worked out how to disable this.
The notification comes from com.android.pagebuddynotisvc, which is called PageBuddyNotiSvc in the application manager ('All' tab). You can disable this service, and the notification + shortcut icons in the dropdown menu will now not appear.

Thanks pennas, I also noticed the "PageBuddy" app meanwhile, should've looked more carefully in the first place.
It's not that annoying to me, but I just still don't understand what the benefit is, when I can't configure it. Because the apps showing also seem to change. Meh.

Its not a bug, it just shows your most frequently used apps.

is there a way to remove/hide Ongoing Notification?

is there any framework or app able to remove or hide it?

Any help if you go to: Settings -->General --> Applications --> Choose an app --> uncheck "Show Notifications"
ps. Not exactly sure did I give correct names to menu, as my phone language is not english.
pss. You should get there also if you drop notification bar down and long press the notification --> It give something like App Info --> then uncheck "Show Notifications"

For some reason this does not persist after a reboot. Is this by design, or is it a bug? The toggle is switched off after a reboot, but the notifications are there anyways.

Root> go to es file explorer> delete or rename knox> reboot.
This is how I made it work on note 2.

It acts same way in my phone, so it looks like a bug, but it doesn't matter for me as I don't boot my phone so often it could get annoying..
If I need to re-check them once or twise a week, no big deal
Anyway I hope Samsung will fix it

Yep, it reverts after a reset.

An apology for bumping a thread older than my nephew, but has anyone found a non root method for 7.0 n. ??

Tip: Turn off annoying "Power Management Tips" notifications

Step 1: Enable Stamina mode and Low battery mode.,
Step 2: Set both of them to only activate when battery level is below 1%
Step 3: Don't let your battery level drop below 1%
That should take care of those 2 notifications. If anyone has figured out how to get rid of all the other annoying Sony notifications, please post.

There is another way to stop it
If these stamina notification fade in you can use two fingers on this notification and pull it down...
there is a checkbox you can deselect to hide these upcoming notifications

Like every notification on Android, you go in the Application menu, you search for the app concerned and uncheck "show notifications"

Have you actually tried this? Which application is responsible for the power management tips notifications? Post a screenshot.

I thought every app having the permission to post a notification was in the app listing with the possibility to disable the notifications. Eco mode Control have his checkbox greyed out.
Apparently, the "real" apps involved are “SemcPowerSaveModule.apk , Settings.apk and SuperStamina.apk” and I don't see them in the app list so forget my quote :silly:

OK: Interesting bit of knowledge, which in this case doesn't help much, but might still be nice to know:
If you don't see an app in the listing or if it's checkbox is greyed out, use this:
Code:
adb shell
pm hide com.package.name
to reverse it, replace "hide" with "unhide".
This hides the app from the system, including in the drawer. It is similar to "disabling" system apps. Not recomended for things you actually use, e.g. com.android.settings or com.sonymobile.superstamina. They will not work afterwards. It works very well with the annoying "low storage" notification though. Package name is com.sonymobile.storagechecker. Just try it out, you can always unhide, and the changes are instantaneous.
ADB is great.
You can for example find packages by
Code:
adb shell
pm list packages searchterm
so for example
Code:
pm list packages settings
produces a list of all packages with "settings" in the name.
Code:
pm list packages -s settings
shows only system apps with "settings" in the name.
If you want to play around in ADB by yourself, use a questionmark after a command to see all the avaliable options for this command. The two basic commands are am (activity manager) and pm (package manager)
Code:
adb shell pm ?

how to make notifications appear only in 2nd screen

I've seen some notifications just show in the second screen without showing in the main screen...e.g. Mr. Jones sent you a message... This would appear in the 2nd screen only.
But some,like Line messaging, would appear in both. So I still get that notification in the main screen where you can do a quick reply (which I don't want)
How to I stop notifications from appearing in the main screen? But I still want them in the second screen.

Posted about this before - the best way is to just long press the notification and "Silence notifications". THis way they show up on the 2nd screen. Warning, they DO NOT vibrate.
There are some apps that disable the heads-up display but they're not working with N7 right now

Hmm I still want then to vibrate. Apps like Viber only appear on the 2nd screen...I don't understand why lol

I had a third party app do this. Go into the settings of the app and turn off the pop-up feature. It will stop displaying on the main screen and only show on the 2nd screen. Not all third party apps can remove the popup feature in the settings of the app. This worked for me.

What is that app called?

Disable the heads up Notification + problem
I have tried a diffrent solution by disable the headsup notification by system UI tuner app. and it works! everything likes Whatsapp Message preview notification, facebook, youtube, UCBrowser etc. but except Line. It Shows there is a Message come in but it didnt show what the message is just like headsup notif. did, this is anoyying tho. anyway this solutions is great except the line.
i need preview what the message contain is, not just showing Line symbol on my Second screen

You can do this via ADB:
1. Turn on USB Debugging
2. Connect via USB
3. Run in cmd:
Code:
adb devices
You should see your device listed.
4. Run:
Code:
adb shell settings put global heads_up_notifications_enabled 0
Restart and that should do it. I've done it this way.

How To Prevent System Update - and get rid of notification?

I have a ZB602KL which is now rooted with TWRP and Magisk. It is on Android 8.1 and I keep getting notification about FOTA updates - sometimes a really HUGE one. I am not really interested in the update and want to turn this all off. I did something similar long ago on my old Note phone but doubt that would work here. Any suggestions? Thanks

yeah.... even me getting always the notification of PIE update.. how to make it shut...as it can be mute for only 2hrs... and again it comes

Go to settings>apps>show system app>FOTAupdate. Force stop the app. Now the notification will not bug you till the next time you restart your phone.

i remembered in old version android once you make them force stop they wont run again till u start manually

Enable developer settings.
In developer settings, scroll down to the last. Somewhere towards the last, you'll find a setting called background check, enter this setting, scroll down to FOTA service and turn off its background check.
Go back in settings to apps and notifications. Select all apps and select show system apps from the three dot menu. Scroll down to FOTA settings and turn off background activity for the app (this is under battery settings).
