I've been getting a notification very frequently that says "searching location" and then a little while later says "location found." Is this normal? I have location set to high accuracy. I guess it isn't that big a deal, I just find it a bit annoying.
I think this has something to do with the moto app. Haven't figured out which part yet. But I got the same thing happening. Think it's normal

Does anyone know how to disable this notification?

Yeah, I know what he's talking about.. But there's no entry for "command center" in the apps list (Settings -> Apps -> All) where you can disable it completely. Hence why I'm asking him if he knows the entry's name, so I can disable it.

Actually my bad - there was an entry for "Command Center" and it was already disabled. So to answer your question, disabling the command center does not fix this "Location Found" issue.
If this issue hasn't been resolved yet - Next time you see the notification, long press it in the notification drawer before it disappears and hit app info and it will show you what app it is. I'm not sure if you can disable it though

I got a warning that 'Devices' was stopping stamina mode & disabled it by accident.
Anybody know how to re-enable it?
I can not find it in my app list (settings/apps/all).
Thanks for any help.

Hmm I think it's not in the list because it's not really an app, but part of the OS.
How did you disable it? The same way you disabled it you should have an option to re-enable it.

It was through the notification.
Clicking took me to the 'force stop/disable' menu for devices & I disabled from there.
Now can't find it to re-enable & I won't get the pop up again.

Hello,
I ve found a way to disable system update service.
1. Download disable service from the play store.
2. Disable All thread under Device update
3. Disable SystemUpdateService under Google Play services

vandoor
it worked!
I just followed the steps and the update notification in my nexus 5 is gone!
thanks a lot!

First of all the thread is a little old, and secondly all that does it remove notifications for that, it still downloads in the background and you might miss other important notifications.

If I recall I believe I read somewhere years ago that said if you rename the ..fota.apk in system/apps it will not check for a system update? Perhaps I am mistaken...its been a couple years.

Keep in mind that doing it that way only hides the notification.
It will still download, and it WILL wakelock to do so.

I am using this to disable the OTA notification for Lollipop. It eliminates the notification but the update is still available under About Phone/System Updates, and it requires touching "Download" to download. So, why do you think the OTA will still occur?

I'm saying that it will just hide all system notifications, NOT get rid of the OTA. You'll miss other system notifications if you do get any and the OTA will still be waiting.

So what other options are there? I downloaded 'Disable Service' from Play Store, unchecked the three everyone has been suggesting, but those three would then wakelock my phone 100% of the time.

If you check app info you will notice you are disabling notifications for Google play services app. This app has nothing in common with standard android system notifications so they will continue to work. Question is, what other notifications does play services app has that could be considered important to the user.
I am sure I am missing the obvious. Came from a Samsung phone. I'm trying to find the location of "Settings>about" to see my software version. I touch the little wheel "settings". But from there there is no "about" to touch.
TIA
The very last option at the bottom??
That's where I thought it would be... It's not there I simply cannot find the "about" in settings.

Is it possible to use tasker to switch on lastpass accessibility toggle? My OnePlus 3t (not rooted, OOS 9.0.4) deactivates it almost on a daily basis. I have switched off battery optimisation for lastpass but the phone turns the toggle off.
Use auto input
Ta. I'll check that out
Hi there. Maybe you can try using the "Custom Setting" action for that. Try using the Magnifying glass in the action with the option to automatically find the setting and see if Tasker can find it. Hope this helps!

The easy way is to use the Secure Settings action in AutoTools. That has a direct option for accessibility services. I plan on adding that option to Tasker directly at a later date.
With the Custom Setting action what you should do is read the value, remove or add the needed service from the list, the write the setting.
Ta I'll test that

That means that Tasker doesn't seem to be able to communicate with AutoTools. Do other AutoTools actions work?

According to some users you are certainly not alone. They did say that once app / system files were updated then the option appeared. But not everyone and suggested reporting the issue via the feedback option. Try updating everything first and see what happens. Factory reset didn't help either.

It's not silly because I have no idea what they were talking about either. I guess they mean apps like carrier services and perhaps the monthly security updates?
