Is there a way to turn off the Quick Settings at the top of the Settings app?
Exactly, what are you referring to? The gear shaped button at top right in the drop down notification panel, or the quick settings tiles, or what?
Can you post a screenshot?
My Note 5 on MM had it but my Note 8 on N doesn't.
At the top of the SETTINGS menu. See attached screenshot.
That doesn't look like stock...
Your settings look absolutely different from my settings, what model is yours? Looks like a different phone!

That is a Note 8, model number SM-N950U (Verizon).
If you hit the 3 menu button in the top right corner, select "Standard List". I bet your all's phone is on "Simplified List" for the settings menu.
I know that option from earlier phones, but on my unbranded N950U1 the 3 dots are not available in settings...

I didn't have them until I had to do a factory reset last weekend.
I never had the 3 dot for changing the style, I Did 2 factory resets for some unrelated issues with an app, but nothing changed
Ok, I can live without it - not looking forward to factory reset ?
Probably has a clone.

Must be a Verizon thing. My N950F (XEF unbranded) doesn't look like that & neither do my parents' N950U (TMO). Verizon is always trying to make their apps/features different from the rest.
Again, my TMO Note 5 on Marshmallow had quick settings like that but there was no way to turn it completely off.

Well if I have a clone Verizon screwed up. I got it at a Verizon store new in the box.
See attached screen shot of my About Phone section. I'm on 7.1.1 with 1/1/18 security patch.
Yup, it's a Verizon thing......
I changed the following line to VZW & sure enough it looked liked the OP's menu.
<CscFeature_Setting_ConfigOpMenuStructure>TMB</CscFeature_Setting_ConfigOpMenuStructure>
So if you're rooted change the line above to a CSC code other than VZW (but when I changed it to VZW it also changed my data indicator icon back to stock international even though I have it set to LTE).

Thanks

Oh I'm glad it's not just me, it's rather annoying as if I share my contact with someone they get the wrong number!
Looks like the number comes directly from the sim card, there is a work around of putting the sim into an old android phone and changing the 'own number' field in settings, unfortunately as I am at work I cannot try it until I get home tonight...

Not sure if I follow
Just as the title implies. So far this seems to be a great phone. Picked up the 128GB White. Pre-ordered. Shipped today, but, without ROOT I'll lose some of my favorite apps, and I'm not sure that I'll be able to transfer everything, like MMS. For some reason Kies doesn't like my phone, or maybe I've hit some soft limit trying to backup 35K SMS/MMS. I have an S4, skipped the S5

Kies never worked with app data on my S4, but I used Titanium for apps anyway. With 20GB of music and video on my SD card and around 1200 SMS, it took about an hour and a half. My call logs did transfer, though.
some one should start a thread for a bounty for root. Or find geohot lol. We could use a towel root like root or exploit.

Sent from my SM-N915V
I just want root to get rid of the all the damn blotware. I disabled most of them but they still take up memory. And there is still about 5 apps the phone wont let me disable.
I also would like to change the screen DPI so that i have 5 apps across in the app drawer

you don't have to change the screen DPI to do this. if you mean you want 5 apps across the bottom instead of 4, simply drag a new shortcut into the bar and it will resize itself to hold 5 icons. if you're talking about the grid itself, and changing from 4x4 to 4x5 or 5x5, you can do that by holding your finger on one of the small squares (that tells you which tab you're on). it will bring up a custom menu that allows you to change the screen grid settings.
as for wanting root, i'm looking for a wi-fi tethering option. this was built into the custom ROM i had on my S3, and i'm hoping someone can do the same on the S6!

You will have to excuse my ignorance i'm not a big android user, just got my new s6 edge att and i have only rooted my tablet in the past to remove bloat. Can you tell me why the att model phones take so long to root?
cheers
Who knows. It only started with the S5. Before then we had zero day roots. It really stinks, because if any phone could use it the edge could. It's highly under utilized, the lack of apps you can add in ultra power saving mode is silly. FB, but no email? The bloat, etc.
I don't have much background on this, but how is it that the Tmobile and Sprint version are already rooted so quickly? I'll have to refresh my memory on the whole root process and roms but why is it that these att phones are also not rooted at quickly?
So since last night (8/28), if I send or receive a text from another Samsung phone user, the text app gives me "delivered" notifications even when set not to, and it also broke TeslaUnread. Was there some sort of automatic update pushed out last night?!
Just checked my TeslaUnread and it was off... not sure why

I've also noticed that the chat options aren't respected anymore. As in, you will receive and send "read" and "delivered" notifications, even if its set not to. Regardless of how you set it.
Weird-I see too that TeslaUnread was disabled on mine! I had to go in and give it persmissions again (though I already had), so I don't know what's going on.
I'm on manual updates, no Samsung updates since pretty much release date, Google updates you can check yourself, should show in recent updates, not sure how security updates work, but you could check , phone came with
July 1 security installed, didn't change on mine.

so far, the stock messages app is still wonky, but Tesla unread seams to be working, but then crashes. Their support department already had me check some stuff and is working on it on their end. I must admit, for a company whom I paid only a few dollars to, years ago, the support from Nova Launcher and TeslaCoil has been outstanding :good:
Wrong post
Off topic a little ----Not a fan of the stock messaging app at all I use QKSMS or Messaging from Playstore. You can mark a text read straight from dropdown and you can reply with QKSMS in a hover screen never leaving your original screen.
- WiFi Calling
- HD Calling
- Video Calling
- VoLTE
I figure since people have had the phone for a few days now, maybe there is a definitive answer to be had. I contacted Verizon and they said that WiFi calling and HD calling will not work and that an unlocked phone will remove these features from my account. But, Verizon did say that VoLTE and Video calling will work. I contacted Samsung support and they said that all 4 features will work but that I would need to contact Verizon to enable the features on their end. Seems like a runaround.
Is there anyone with the unlocked variant and Verizon that can confirm what does and doesn't work? Thanks!
I do not have any of those working. I will try calling Verizon. I really want VoLTE/HD calling to work.

Yes it works. I had called someone in Verizon and he went through line by line, updated something called mpas or empass,and then I had to restart my phone to get it active. Finally worked after talking to 3 different people. Ask to speak to a level 2 tech if the first guy doesn't get it
Thanks, MACHEK. Which of the features are you referring to? All of them? Or, specific ones? Thanks.

Yeah I had my phone on airplane mode just to check and only had Wi-Fi. Received texts, calls etc no problem. HD calling works too. I tried to reach out to my contact at Verizon for a real good description of what he checked but he hasn't replied yet. It took him a good 15 minutes but eventually he got it. He said he went line by line to double check each setting.
Thanks again, MACHEK. If your contact gets back to you can you please reply here with the info so I and others know what to ask for when calling Verizon to get these features working on our unlocked phones?

The link that was posted here does indeed have an extensive list & has the various commands (I'd use disable,since it ca be reversed vs uninstall,which requires a factory reset to restore).
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79118360&postcount=6
The affected functions/apps are conveniently grouped together,making it much easier to troubleshoot if anything desirable gets broken.

That's a good article/tutorial, but, since it was published, disable/enable commands have been found to work vs uninstall.
If you're absolutely sure you want to uninstall, that's fine, but, I see no advantages vs disabling.
You're not going to be able to repurpose the storage by deleting,& disabling is easily reversible.

If you're absolutely sure you want to uninstall, that's fine, but, I see no advantages vs disabling.
You're not going to be able to repurpose the storage by deleting,& disabling is easily reversible.

Understood and thank you!
I always read everything I can find on a subject, twice, before connecting my phone the the computer and running commands.
My goal is to freeze the OS update apps and prevent Pie form installing on my Verizon Note 9.

Cool, I think you only need to freeze one .apk to disable the system updates.
I had a conversation with someone here recently that was on VZW & IIRC, VZW changed the name of the apk(s) responsible.
If you haven't already isolated which one(s) they are, I could look back at my older posts & get that info...

I've got them disabled with AdHell, but I'm fearful that might not be enough.

I'm using Adhell3 as well & have not been prompted to update my T-Mobile Note 9.
Tried out Pie & at least on the Note 9, did not like it at all, akin to how the Note 5 seemed like a downgrade from the Note 4.
If you can't trigger the "Check for Updates" in settings, I'd think that should suffice.

Thanks, for sharing your experience on your TMo N9! I'll just have to be diligent about updating the key for AdHell!
You seem to come to my resue, often and I really appreciate it!
When I see your user name, I think of this, even tho I know its pronounced differently.

Essentially what @KOLIOSIS already said; use disable user option. Although with Ah3 there is no need it might get handy if keys for Ah3 can't be generated.
