Full Screen Event Notifications - T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can anyone tell me what I have to disable to get rid of the annoying full screen event notifications? I am referring to the ones that allow you to dismiss or snooze an alert. I have tried disabling calendar notifications and tasks, but I still get them. Any help would be appreciated.

Is there a way to turn off alerts/alarms coming from the S planner?

Is there a way to turn off alerts/alarms coming from the S planner?
I'm planning on using Calengoo.
Won't the alerts double? One coming from S-planner and the other coming from Calengoo?
I cannot turn of the calendars in S planner as Calengoo seems to need it to be able to get calendar data from my google account (I don't want to give Calengoo my login details, thus it is syncing from my Android device which is syncing to my Google Account)
Thanks for what enlightenment you guys can give.
I, too, would love some advice on this issue. Just using Outlook and the S Calendar. What I would like to do is to turn off the spoken notifications but still receive an event notification in the notification bar. And I still want the phone to ring.
What about "Set alarms and notifications" option in s planner options accessible after pressing menu key? I can set "Alarm", "Notification", "Disabled". There is another menu entry for vibration...
Thanks. But the problem with choosing to disable it is that I no longer receive any notification. I would like a notice in the notification bar - I just don't want my notification bar speaking. I tried changing the notification sound volume to zero. That worked to silence notifications about texts (but I still get the vibrate). But my calender still speaks.
Well, I found a fix for my problem, but it won't help the OP. Turns out the phone was in driving mode and that overrode application settings.

[Q] Can't turn off Calendar "Alerts"

There are two types of Calendar Notifications in Note 3.
[1] Alert - This will display full screen notification with Dismiss and Snooze options, just like the Clock Alarm. It will turn the display on to display the full screen notification. If your phone is on and you are in some other app, it will still overlap on the current app and display full screen notification.
[2] Status bar notification - This will not turn the display on. It will be just the status bar notification, just like the gmail notification. If your phone is on and you are in some other app, it will not interrupt the current app.​
No matter what settings I choose, I always get the full screen alert. Even if I choose the Status bar notification, it always displays full screen alert. Is there any solution to this?

Anytime you have a calendar alert per event that says "Popup", it's going to do that.

I do not see any "pop-up" option on my Note 3. I sync my calendar with Google calendar and I have default notification set as pop-up in Google Calendar. Do you mean to say that setting on the web interface is causing it?

Yes, that alert for the event is what I was referring to. I disable that by default on mine and my phone doesn't have that popup.
I also sync my Gmail events to my Note 3 using the default calendar app.
If that doesn't work, try downloading the Google calendar, remove your gmail from the default calendar and see if it still does it?

[Q] Question about Lollipop Popup Notifications

Hey all, I have a quick question about how android handles popup notifications. I know there is no stock way to remove it or turn it off, but does 5.0.1 let you, or is there a custom ROM I could flash to fix this annoyance as seen in the picture I've posted? Thanks.
what exactly is the annoyance?
You can turn off notifications for individual apps BTW - go to settings/sounds and notifications/App notifications and turn them off
The annoyance is the popup notifications. And I still want to be notified of Hangouts messages as I rely on it, but don't want this popup that can only be swiped away that dismisses the notification.

How to hide "VPN is activated" notification from AOD?

Anyone know how to hide system notifications from the Always On Display screen? Specifically, I am wanting to hide the "VPN is activated" notification. I do not want to disable all notifications, as I still want to get notifications for missed calls, missed texts, and new emails.

Calendar Notifications Not Persistent

Just bought an 8 & seem to have an issue with notifications from the stock calendar app. Notifications come through but aren't persistent. So if I don't check the phone straight away to see what the notification was, it disappears all by itself. I'm used to Samsung's S-Planner where notifications remain until manually dismissed.
Edit
Turns out the notification only dismisses once the event is over. Still not great though if you hsppen to miss the initial notification.
