GPS on/off extra screen annoayance!! - Sprint HTC One (M7)

Is this an HTC thing?? When I tick GPS on and off I have to see an extra screen , "Location settings" pops up after I choose GPS on or off. Whats up with the unnecessary annoyance... with all the other androids phones I have had I have never encountered this. Any way to get rid of seeing and going through that extra screen motion.
How do I avoid seeing this screen Every time?? Its pissing me off!!

Pretty sure it's a Sense/Sprint thing, in which case it'll be part of the framework and can't be disabled short of modifying the framework. If you use any sort of GPS toggle though (like the stock power widget), you won't see that message.

Hiding items on today screen when in landscape??

Basically the message subject says it all... I have a bunch of things in the today screen but when I slide open the phone I want some to be hidden so there is no scrollbar on the side (really annoying)....
Is this possible and if so how do I do it??
Thanks.

You probably have large start menu installed.
Heres an image of what I am talking about.... I dont think its the start menu because when I am in landscape the start menu automatically creates a section called "more..." for the items that dont fit.

I think this may have something to do with the Quick launcher which has 5 icons for my pictures, task launcher, camera, music and phone.... this cant be seen in the image but is there a way to hide this program in landscape???? I dont see any options for this.
Thanks.
ADDITION: I was able to make this somewhat more tolerable by un-docking the HTC home plugin... still wish there was no scrolling though.

Disabling larger Square EDGE/3G/HSDPA Icon

Ok, so I just flashed Dutty's 4/29 rom not too long ago.
So far it has been great. But I have one thing I would like to change.
The signal icon at the top of the screen integrates the G/E/3G/H indicator for data. Is there a way to disable the larger Square G/E/3G/H indicator next to that? I feel there is no need to have both, and the less clutter at the top the better.
Here is a screenshot with the icon in question highlighted in the red box:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Normally I would search, but I did not know what to call that icon, and searching "disable data icon" did not get me where I wanted to go.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Also on a related note....
Is there a way to seperate out the multiple notifications.
For example if you get an email notification and a missed call, rather than having seperate icons across the top for each, you get a "notifications icon" that you have to click on which pops up the seperate icons:
Is there a way to seperate those out by default?
Anybody have any suggestions?
As far as i know thats not possible..

[Q] Dead pixel or ...?

I just got a replacement N7 since my first one stopped turning on or charging and this replacement one seems iffy. This little spot on the screen is always there, and is only not visible on black screens.
Any thoughts on what it is?
Attached is the best pic I could get of it...

Hi, lostchopstik...
Could be 'stuck' pixels....
I assume you've tried rotating the tab to see if it would move/go away?
Try installing one of the many SCREEN TEST apps from PlayStore.... you can scroll through various test screens.
If the 'artifact' refuses to disappear, and if it's something that's too much of an irritant to live with...
...get another replacement...
It's just not worth the hassle of being bugged by some screen defect... if that's ALL you're going to be looking for, EVERY time you turn on your tab.
Rgrds,

phone overheats with multiple users (lollipop)

ok, maybe I overstated saying that phone overheats (now I can't change thread title) but the thing is, if I use my phone normally, like anyone would, battery life is just fine, nothing impressive, but no big deal, but if I switch to my second user profile (i don't need to do anything there, just log on, and log back to main profile again), then the task with the name of my other user will be the most battery consuming thing currently active. let me post a screenshot:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
alright, perhaps it makes sense, since it's a whole different set of tasks and services active on background, but thing is, once I make this user active, I can't switch it off unless I reboot my phone. is there a way to kill the second user?
any comments on this?
I think is related to the lollipop problem with "radio active" apps. Sometimes it happens to me randomly
i dont htink so, its not random at all

Can't get hole punch notification light to work?

The stock EdgeLighting and I downloaded EdgeLighting+ and I still cannot get the camera hole punch notification light to work on either the outer or inner screens. I assume the correct option would be "Eclipse" but when I press it nothing happens?

I'm using Always On Edge from the Play Store.
I've used it on past few galaxy models and it works really well, minimal impact to battery life.
Settings can be a bit tricky but it's easy enough to work out. I've raised a few issues with the dev and he always responds and sorts it really quickly. At the minute I can only get it working on either the front or inside screen, not both at the same time due to the camera placement. I've contacted dev to see if that would be something he could implement.
Use the app called Aod Notify. Perfect app.
