Turn off NFC

Hi all,
Today I received my 4x HD (yeahhhhh)
In statusbar is always showing the NFC icon.
Is this meaning that NFC always on is?
I can't find the option to turn it off.

I added it to the quick settings, then turned it off from there. Not sure where main settings option is for it though.

Settings -> Wireless & Network -> More.. -> NFC Toggle
Or modify the Statusbar

[Q] Switching between 2G/3G

Is there any way I can toggle between 2G/3G networks? Just to save some battery and data usage.
Thanks!

There's 2g-3g onoff widget by curvefish in Google play look there.

Hold down the data toggle in the notification bar. It should get you to data settings menu

Thanks, got it. So in "Network mode", GSM/WCDMA would be 3G if possible, "GSM only" is 2G. :victory:

Yes.
Basically you can long press on any notification toggle item to get to its advanced settings

In Cyanogenmod ROMs it´s possible to create a power toggle that switches between 2G/3G without having to enter the Mobile networks menu (one click switch). Is anything similar possible with the stock ROMs?

There are various apps that create shortcuts to the menu of mobile networks, but I haven't found anything quicker than that.

Blinkfeed Questions

Is it possible to only display weather from a location I've set? Every refresh defaults back to "current location"
When clicking the weather icon, is it possible to change out of 24hr time?

For the clock, go to clock and you must be in the world clock screen. Go to settings/local time settings and you can select or uncheck 24 clock. Go to home settings and you can search and select your home city.
For weather, open up weather and go to settings and turn off update my location.

I think he's talking about something different. Even I open my weather app and look at the hourly forecast, it's in 24 hour first.
As far as I know, there is no way to change this, annoying as it is.

Are you unlocked, rooted and S-off? Can't do much if you're completely stock. If you're rooted, you can use Xposed Framework, install GravityBox (KK), and hide the icon that way. Or you can use Venom Tweaks (not sure if that only works on the Viper ROM or not).
The LTE Spark icon is a single unit, so you can't remove just the letters. You can see the International Icons pack thread in the Themes forum for Sprint M8 to get the simplified icons for that (no Sun).

Are you trying to disable only the "GPS off" icon, while keeping the "GPS on" icon? I'm not sure if that's possible, but hiding GPS Icon should remove both. I never turn off GPS myself, so I didn't even notice there was an icon for it being off.

Yeah, sorry, it seems GravityBox no longer has the icon hiding function it had. What you found works, but so does Sense 6.0 Toolbox that you can't get through Xposed downloads directly. Search in XDA and you can find that. Has a lot of functionality.

Remove VPN Key in Notification Area

I'm testing out Ad Guard at the moment, which seems to be working well.
However, because I chose to use a VPN (it was recommended) then I now have a key sign in the notification area.
I'm sure it asked me if I wanted to turn it off at the time but I said no thinking I could turn it off later. Now I can't find any setting at all!
Is there a way I can turn it off without having to give system ui Turner app permissions through ADB?

You can disable notification using your phone settings not the app settings.

I can't find the specific notification for the key symbol.
