Random Notification Sounds From Note8 - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

I have been dealing with this sound for weeks and can't seem to find the culprit. I've gone as far as reading the logs but still don't know how to read this ****. what I found is that it seems to be some ad that refreshes every 7000 milliseconds and causes it. I have edge glow turned on so when it triggers, it shows a glow but just a square icon and no actual notification. I took a screenshot from logcat but not rooted so can't see system logs.

This is the best I can find and it won't tell me the app that's causing it. From my incompetence, it looks like it's a system log. I have my gear connected but it's not sending a notification there.
UPDATE: Booted into safe mode and still have the notification sounds. Has to be from default app now. Going to test without bluetooth and see if it's the gear causing the issue.

Another screenshot from logs. Still not sure what I'm looking at, may just say screw it and factory reset, but thats ALOT of work.https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/359090202465271809/417753086061183016/SmartSelectImage_2018-02-26-12-41-08.jpg

Time missing from notification bar

So today i noticed the time is no longer displayed on my notifications bar and some icons may have shifted places. I haven't changed any settings or installed anything new so im wondering why it happened and if i can get it back. Its probably an easy fix but i looked through settings and didnt find the option so i decided to ask here. Anyone?

Thanks guys
are you on CM? I noticed when I went to spare parts and look around at the colors
there was a clock color option and I didn't know what it did so I tried out one of the options.
it actually hid the clock after a reboot and I went back to check black and it appeared again.
Thanks for the help, that did the trick!
I don't understand why it got unchecked though seeing as how i didn't/dont mess with spare parts

I've started getting a second notification when receiving texts with the icon that is on the left. Wondering if anyone recognizes what is causing it, as I now get 2 notifications every time I get a text. I can't seem to figure out what I installed/messed with that caused this to start popping up.
Beautiful Widgets
Yeah I had this problem too previously, except on my nexus one. The Beautiful Widgets SMS widget was making the notification pop up. You can disable it by creating the widget again and changing its settings.
great. didn't think of beautiful widgets being the issue.

Go to the Running Services settings and whats running. Then go and uninstall the app.
Its an ad technique that is gaining in popularity and is coming from one of your less than reputable apps you have installed.
If you can't find it in your running services, try checking out the reviews of your top suspects... others may have found it and already be *****ing about it.

Another notification icon question

I have had my phone since Sunday, but haven't had much time to really mess with it because of a busy work schedule. I did unlock the bootloader and root, but I have no idea where this icon came from or what it is in reference to. When I swipe the notification bar down, there is nothing there that references it. It has been present for a couple of days, but everything seems to be functioning correctly. Can anyone help me identify the icon and why it's there please? It's the one to the far left in the image below. Thanks.

You are in do not disturb mode, or no interruption mode or whatever it is called. Priority is a star, and all is nothing.

Incoming call screen faint

Phone worked flawlessly at first but now the incoming call screen is sometimes so faint that I can barely see any of the info (phone number) on the screen. I cannot reproduce the issue at will. It is an intermittent issue. I use the stock, Google phone dialer and I have not taken any updates for it.
When this happens, the screen itself is plenty bright but it looks like a webpage with a modal that fades out the text.
Normal:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Faded:
Has anyone else experienced this issue? I was hoping the April Android update would fix this but it made no difference.
Another thing that started happening around the same time is that sometimes I cannot turn on WiFi. I have to reboot.
