Since the latest security patch by Samsung on my S8 plus a few days ago I dont see the VPN status icon anymore to show it's active. There is no notification either that used to be there and had the "disconnect" option. Notifications are not blocked in the VPN settings or any of the 3rd party apps I tried just to make sure it was not related to any single one. I need it because I don't always use the connection and it remains running unknown to me. I tried System UI tuner but disabling and re-enabling the status icon doesnt work. Wiping the system cache also did nothing.

I've got an S4 with GoldenEye rom (MJ7) and I'm having trouble with notifications still showing up in my notification bar even after I've
-long-pressed the notification
-then selected app info
-gone into that notification's/app's system based settings
-unchecked the box that says show notifications
-after a while the notification will pop back up
-I then repeat the first three steps
-then notice that the box I uncheck is still unchecked yet the notification is still showing up in my bar.
Apps I've had issues with (obviously not talking about Voicemail or other system apps that block you from turning them off):
-Automagic
-Easycontroller
-BBM
-Overlay
-a lot of 3rd party apps that you have to enable in Accessibilities
Any solutions?
Well after updating to 5.0 there are many problems. The worst one is the notification access auto disabled after rebooting the phone. I give the notification access to CM Locker and after I reboot, I need to give it again. Is there anything I can do to stop this thing?

By default you are unable to access the system UI tuner in emui. With this app (ALL CREDIT TO LEEDROID) you are able to add various shortcuts to your quick settings tiles. One of these is UI tuner, which will bring you to the settings unlike holding the settings cog.
Note that this method is sometimes rather buggy when getting to the menu, and it works best if your settings application is cleared from recent apps.
Just download the app, hit edit in your quick settings, drag the UI tuner to your quick settings and you're set to go.
Don't give up if it won't work on the first press! Clear your recent apps and give it another shot.

I discovered this a while back on the Mate 9, but unfortunately most of the functions don't work so there's really no point to it.
I tested this, but if I'm right, not many of those new settings in System UI tuner work in Honor 8. I did not get Power notification controls to do anything new (no new settings appeared in app notification settings). Similarly turning on Do not disturb mode shortcut seemed to once flash the options in the volume popup, but after that... nothing. The only thing I managed to get to work was to remove icons from status bar.
Or did I do something wrong?

No, you did it correctly. Some of the settings may not work properly due to the EMUI skin. The issues you listed are probably why honor had it hidden in the first place. But there are still some useful settings in there.
There is simpler method to do that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gm8PEYKrjrw
However SystemUI is very limited, nothing useful to do
I've enabled Wi-Fi calling and I can't seem to disable the Notification in either the Status Bar or in the Notification pull-down itself (obviously they're one of the same). It seems the app that creates this is IPService (it shows that when I drag down on the notification). I have it set to "show notifications silently" / "Don't sound, vibrate or appear on the screen regardless of the notification settings in the app" but nothing seems to hide it. It's rather annoying that it's persistent. Obviously turning off Wi-Fi calling will make it disappear but that defeats the purpose!
I have another similar (but less annoying issue) - the persistence of the NFC icon in the Status Bar. I seem to remember in earlier LG devices there was a way to hide this but I can't find it in the G6 software?
The persistent notification for WiFi cannot be disabled, or at least I have yet to come across a way. I believe this is done on purpose to prevent the OS from stopping or interrupting the service. I would love a way to disable the notification from the drop down menu, while keeping it on the notification bar.

Are you talking about the actual notification. Mines gone. Maybe verify that you have same settings as I do in your advanced WiFi settings. See 3rd pic.
It's a notification for Wi-Fi *calling* (see OP)

Sorry my brain didn't process the calling part.
Trying to access the System UI Tuner through Nova Launcher/Widget/Activities/System UI Demo but the app keeps crashing when I try to access. Anyone else having this issue, find a fix, or find another way to access the System UI Tuner?
Same problem. Would like to know how others are accessing it.
I thought that was just a stock Android thing, no?
Same here with my S10e. I think Samsung is trying to prevent us from removing the icons from the status bar.
If you go to settings and click on the search icon and search for "Status bar information", you can select/deselect items from the list like Time, Date or Battery Power.
However, it does NOTHING even if you deselect all and items like clock still persists in the status bar.
Use this:
NiceLock

You can hide everything + do much more
Same here, I just want to show seconds on my clock using System UI Tuner but I still cannot access it using S10.
