Has anyone figured out how to remove the NFC icon from the statusbar without disabling NFC? I have tried setting the ro.nfc.icon.enable property to false in the build.prop, but it didn't have any effect.

You cannot do this and I think there lots of restriction for NFC because of security aspect of nfc

That's disappointing. I wonder if I can use ResFlux to make it go away....
I have found the answer in this thread.

I am refering to the "wifi, bluetooth, silent and vibration" toggles you see when you pull down the notification bar.
I think this is specifically for i9000 becoz I dont remember seeing this sort of thing in other android screenshots.
Anyway, is there any way to remove these? Coz i am already using widget and dont need it on the bar.
I would also want to know how. thanks guys
I actually think its a quite handy spot to have those toggles, but would be wicked if one could select which settings to have there.

Yep I agree. Love them but wish I could change them. Why bother with silent? I would rather toggle GPS or 3G

The newer leaked firmwares [froyo builds] have taken out the silent, and added GPS and screen-orientation lock.

Yup! From what I seen with the leaked firmwares, I guess Samsung also find it more useful to add the missing GPS option into it.
Though is just minor improvement, I think is a good improvement.
I've searched but wasn't able to find anything. I'd like to move the status bar to the top, but I can't find the setting to do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When you changed it to the top, how did it affect the app drawer button?

Thanks for the thought, but it didn't work for me. It bunched the icons close together and the status bar went away.
It's an Alpha, so I'm sure an update will be out soon (I hope... ).
is there any way to hide the "honeycomb" status bar? I'd like to hide it when i read PDFs or playing games.

Supposedly, it's not possible to completely hide it, or so says the author of the Honeybar app.
*** Important note for ICS users: Honeybar is unsupported on ICS and will not hide the UI bar. I have examined the source for ActivityManagerService and it currently appears impossible to stop com.android.systemui

What a shame, using splashtop on my touchpad has become much more difficult due to the taskbar.
its there because that's where the menu and home and whatnot buttons are

BTW, that tool, HoneyBar, doesnt work with ICS, you need to have a "special" service.jar file to be able to shutdown the SystemUI service "forever"

I think, from my understanding, the OP (and I) wanted to know how to move the status bar to the top of the tablet instead of having it on the bottom... not just hiding it.
Thanks though!

Hello community, is there a way to remove VPN icon from status bar/notification list? I tried SystemUI tuner, but it doesn't work on S10+ and QuickStar (Good Lock) does't have the VPN icon listed in its setting.
Without root I have to use ADGuard (or similar) to remove AD, but they use VPN to filter them. VPN icon is very annoying especially because it's always shown in AOD. Any clue?

I think the best you can do without mods is minimize the notification, which still appears in the list.
Think of it as a status indicator, without it you wouldn't know if you were connected to the VPN right?

I don't think I can minimize such VPN notification. However, it will be always stay on AOD.

You can try AdHell3. I'm using it without any problems and there's no VPN icon, because it doesn't use a VPN.

Yes, already installed, but it doesn't block all ADs, maybe I have to add more domains than the default one. Which domains you use with AdHell3?

I can minimize it on my device. Also, it doesn't show on my AOD screen. Long press the notification and select "details".

Wait, do you mean the ADGuard notification? This can be blocked without issue, I'm referring to VPN notif (the key). I'm not able to remove nor to minimize it.

I just use the hosts file from mmotti's git which was preinstalled. AdHell3 allows just a number of domains and all other lists I tried are exceeding this number.
But I didn't noticed any Ads that weren't blocked - even Google AdSense are getting blocked.
With AdGuard I noticed a mid range battery drain but with AdHell3 not.
Try autonotification from Google Play.
It works for me

No. I'm referring to the system vpn notification. I'm aware of the adguard notification. I've been using it for 4 years
Not sure why you can't. In the notification settings for vpn it allows me to change it to silent n minimized. Don't be fooled by the greyed out slider on the page listing the notifications. Click it to open the options for the notification.

Would you be so kind to explain how you do it?
Autonotification seems to require the name of the app one wants to block the notifications of. Is there one specific app to mention? Or is it a different kind of setting?
Thanks in advance!
Another thing I've recently stumbled across is called good lock. You can get it from the Galaxy store... it allows you to remove multiple icons from the status bar. Such as Bluetooth, alarm icon, VPN icon. It also allows you to do many other ROM customizations without root.
Hi is there a setting somewhere to hide certain status bar icons?
Thanks
Good lock does this and also UI Tuner, however neither can hide the Bluetooth connected icon but they do the rest.

Not OP, But I just tried to install UI Tuner, But it keeps crashing. BTW I have an S10+.
Mine only shows up when I have an active bluetooth connection, other than that it is hidden
System UI tuner on the play store works and removes this icon, just have to use ADB to make this work.

Good Lock is just the main program and you're not required to use the lockscreen, I don't. The notifications are controlled by the Quickstar module within Good Lock where you can hide the clock or have it on the left or right.

Since the android 10 update the Quick setting toggle for Navigation Bar has been removed. Is there a way to add this feature as I don't always use gestures and like to switch. Your help will be much appreciated. I have a Verizon Galaxy S10+
Bump. This was a dumb move. Why remove such a useful toggle?

I found a workaround that does the trick for me, using the One Hand Operation + module from the Good Lock family. See screenshots.
I'm wondering where the hidden system setting is for the navbar toggle. Anyone know? If I knew, I could just create a Tasker event that could be added to Quick Toggles/Settings. TIA.

This was one of the first things in beta that people complained about. Samsung responded with the exact response they replied with on all requests and questions "we'll pass this on to our engineers, blah, blah, blah". LOL, I sometimes wonder if Samsung engineers even use Samsung phones.

Well, the ability to toggle the navigation bar on/off is still here (as can be seen in my previous post). If we can determine where the hidden system setting is located, creating a quick toggle should be pretty simple.

There's always been an old way to add toggles back. My carrier always hides the mobile hotspot toggle so I have to re-enable it every update. Perhaps if we can find the syntax for the Navigation Bar toggle in Android 9 we could bring it back this way? it would be something like custom(com.samsung.settings/com.samsung.android.settings.NavigationBarTile)
https://www.xda-developers.com/how-...ttings-tile-toggle-on-samsung-galaxy-devices/
My thoughts - you can run "settings get secure sysui_qs_tiles" on a samsung android 9 device that has the navbar button, and that will show what the name of the quick settings toggle is.
