[Q] Disable back cover alert? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5

Everytime i turn my phone on it says my back cover isnt all the way on. I have taken it off and put it back on to make shore and its still saying it. Is there a way to disabke the alert?

It's not an alert it's just a caution message. They all do it. The phone thinks that since it was rebooted the battery cover may have been opened , and it recommends that you check it twice.

Assuming that you're rooted, there is an app called something along the lines of "popupuireciever". If you use something like Titanium Backup, you can uninstall it and it should be gone forever. Just don't forget to make sure your cover is on properly and you close the port flap before heading to any water hazards

You can also use xposed-g touchwiz if you use xposed

Screen on notification

Is there anyway to stop the screen on Notification? I am rooted and I will happily delete a file or modify code if someone knows the answer.

What do you mean by screen on notification?
Sorry what I mean is when the screen turns on when you get a text message. I do not want the screen to turn on when I get a message.

Open messages. tap menu, settings, and then more. About midways You will see an option to preview message. Make sure that is not checked.
No that just prevents me from seeing who texted. I need to disable the screen from turning on

I did some surfing and found that the screen coming on is an AT&T variant exclusive and cannot be disabled. Sprint's version as well as Verizons does not come on. The preview option still lets it come on, just does not tell you what the message says. So you will just have to live with it unless you want to sell yours and get a Sprint version.
While that's not happening lol. Maybe I can find the build prop line and edit it. Thanks though. If anyone else has figured this out please let me know.

That does not control if the screen wakes up or not when you get a text. That just controls if it shows on the status bar and yes that is stock even for AT&T. His issue is the phone wakes on text and he does not want that. At least not so much that the screen lights up. That feature is an AT&T feature and cannot be disabled with an AT&T ROM.
It seems the attachment in the pic has the option for turning the screen on setting off. I like the stock tom and do not want to change it. Is there a way to just side load the mms.apk from his rom?

If you want to install and use safe strap then you can load and use the xnote ROM. otherwise due to the bootloader being locked there is no side loading on this version of the Note 3.

The post above yours by solarenemy (quoted below) seems to imply that sideloading mms.apk from another rom wouldn't even solve this problem (I don't know whether or nor mms.apk could be sideloaded - I think it could be, via the usual rigamarole for changing system apps):

This sounds like the sort of thing that should be possible using xposed framework... Though I don't know if any modules exist yet which do it.
Flashing ROMs would require safestrap, and could surely get what you want even within the limitations of the locked bootloader - but this is, I think, more dramatic than it needs to be to get what you want.
Your right. There was an option in Wanam. I would have never have thought to use that. Thank you so much.

I had the same issue with Note 2 and now with Note 3.
Fortunately I use Google Hangouts to handle my SMS/MMS and the issue does not occur with Hangouts app. I know its not a solution but I could not find a proper way to disable this with the default messaging app.
On a side note, I still have issue with Calender reminder pop-up which turns the screen on and there is no way to disable it. I have 100s of calendar entries synced through my Google Calender which has one of the default reminder set as pop-up on web interface which triggers the full screen pop-up on phone as well waking the screen.
Solved
In either case. There was an option in Wanam which gave me the feature in the mms settings.

front soft keys are gone!!

so, my front soft keys somehow disappeared, and I cant get them back; in the settings menu, there is no longer an option for them, and I have no clue how they went away...
any suggestions?
I uninstalled xposed framework, and gravity box, in case that was the issue,and have rebooted many times, but still not there..
thanks!
Not sure if you can or if it would help but did you try another launcher? Maybe a reset but not sure if that would even work.

Is your expanded desktop on from xposed?
Try factory reset as your last resort. Did you mess around turning them off with xposed?

-tried a different launcher, and it didnt work
-re-installed xposed, and gravity box, and made sure expanded desktop was OFF, and it didnt work
-rooting had nothing to do with it, as I rooted a week ago, and everything was fine until last night
thanks so much!
This is one of the reasons I've been leaving my Flex stock til we get a recovery. I know with the G2, zips were made to shrink the keys. Not sure if you could even get them back if you had a zip like that. Maybe you can search G2 threads and find a way. Sorry I can't help ya.
yeah, I even did a factory reset just now, and they are still not there; even in the settings menu, the "front screen buttons" entry is gone..
I guess I'll take it back to T-mobile today and tell them I want it replaced..its only 11 days since I got it, so it shouldnt matter..
I cant imagine rooting had anything to do with it, since I rooted a week ago, and its worked perfectly until it just went out last night

Before you do that you should try restoring with wolfgart's thread downloads. If you're going to be changing stuff, its good to know how to fix a brick.

i thought about doing that, actually, but it was alot easier to just return it and get a new one today.
If it happens again, which it better not, I will try that.
I think Gravity Box was the culprit, after reading through the 500+ pages of that thread; it seems to play havoc at times with soft keys, so users beware..
That was one of the reasons why i was debating on getting this phone. Nothing beats a physical button.(that works...)

[Q] Data Usage Icon Won't Go Away ***HELP***

So I've been loving this device so far but the only complaint I have is that every time my phone needs to use mobile data, receive or place a phone call, or send or receive a text message, the "Data usage is running" icon will appear for literally less than a split second and it's annoying the hell out of me. I've managed to record a slow motion video on my S4 in order to capture a screen shot of the icon appearing in my notification bar which I've attached below. It looks like I'm able to stop it from constantly appearing but the darn thing isn't around long enough for me to click on it...ANY help? I have tried to go into my application manager and disable it that way but no dice. Also, not rooted and completely stock.
The text on the icon reads "Data usage is running - Touch for more information or to stop ...."
If you go to settings, wireless & networks, data usage. Do you have a checkmark next to alert me about data usage. Is yes, remove it.
Sent from my lair.
Yeah, unfortuantely I had already tried that and it didn't work... Have you experienced the same issue? It's gotten to the point where I'll deliberately send my device a text message from another phone and try to tap the icon in my pull down but it just disappears so damn quick. I know it isn't really that big of a deal but I'm sure I can't be the only one on here who nit picks their phone.

Nope, totally stock. I've debated taking it in to Sprint but I know all they'll do is perform a soft reset (which I've done) and hand me back the phone.
Just got off the phone with HTC, That was essentially useless. Gonna take it in to Sprint tomorrow and cross my fingers for something good.

I don't mean to resurrect this thread, but I am experiencing the same behavior. It is on my Verizon M8. I was thinking about used Xposed to block the notification, but I'd rather determine the root cause and disable it there instead. Any reports on your findings?
Alas, no. I've just learned to live with it...

I am not sure as well. Like I said, I am rooted so for now I am just using an Xposed module to block the notification. It works great.

After installing the Xposed framework, I installed the Notify Clean Module.

After that is running and ready, you need to trigger the notification so it can log it. Once that is done it will be listed as below.

How the hell do u get the stock calculator app to shut up!?

The phone says out loud everything I press, it's sooo annoying. Talk Back feature isnt enabled. I actually use the calculator on my phone alot this sucks. Any help is appreciated
Sent from my SM-N910T using XDA Free mobile app
That sounds hilarious, sorry. As far as I saw, the only options for talking were in the extended options of language and input in settings. I'll dig around and see if I can find something. I'll definitely want it disabled myself.
I noticed this today at the worst possible time in a middle of a meeting. Can't find an option to turn it off.
Went through there as well ,unless I'm not checking something correctly... could you check your calculator app and tell me if your having the same problem?
Just got this phone and never messed around with any of thoose kind of settings anyways.

Did you give any app pemissions in accessibility. If you did read this image i attached. When you give some apps permission Samsung has some issues sometimes with the voice kicking on but Samsung actually had a work around built right into the phone.
Have recreated your problem just do the work around which the phone does for you.

This is how I shut off mine. Under Accessibility if you have anything under Services, turn them off. I had Greenify on and it made my calculator talk, but once I shut it off, calculator stopped talking. Hope it helps.
Found this page with people having same issue. Seems like tmobile and att is the pattern. Tmobile here. Greenify not installed. Double checked all my settings too.

You have to click on the settings button thats below whatever app you would have given permission look at my pic i posted you will see the settings listed at the bottom but since you say you didn't do that then there is no workaround. Did you turn on a app you didn't necessarily had to do it in accessibility some apps will just do it automatically. Can you tell me what apps you may have installed that help with battery or after market lockscreen just anything you can think of

NOTE 4
On my phone, it was caused by activating Greenify in the accessibility settings. When I did that, I got a popup telling me that my default language didn't match TTS. It offered me options of canceling, going to settings, or enabling TalkBack. So, for some reason, activating Greenify activates TalkBack. Voila. Talking calculator.

No notification sounds

Opened up my phone to replace the middle plate, removed battery and all that but started back up fine. Now I notice there is no notification sounds, the speaker works for all other stuff like YouTube, volume steps, ringtone...but not MMS or hangouts.
Strange, any input?

Its not app related since even in the main system menu it doesn't work. I went back to stock image and nothing. I've read that doing a factory reset OEM lock will fix it.
All other audio works. Can't be because I opened my phone, I refuse to believe that.

There is only a couple or cables that need disconnecting when swapping out the middle plate. So no, because it doesn't seem necessary. The cables are battery and wireless charging related...and since I'm powered on I assume its fine.
If anything I'll try hard reset and see what happens.

On chroma latest build, but was working before I opened it up.
