status bar icon removal? - Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers

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.

The option is there but doesn't seem to do anything for me. The icon still appears.

I haven't tried connecting a device yet, maybe that's why I don't see it.

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.

can you remove the clock as well?

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.

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

Thanks, that's good information, but it just turns the status bar off. I want to move it to the top of the screen.

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"
This ever get added as an option?

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!

Like in the pics?
I'm using bxActions, Stock rom, no root. One of the options is full screen on/off and It works also on home screen.
There is an option in the nav bar settings to do this also. If you go to settings, display and navigation bar it is the top option.

That option is to hide or show the button on left of navigaton bar. Not to hide navigation bar itself.

It does hide the nav bar. you'd have to swipe up to make it appear much like in Macs well except on the homescreen.

The toggle u r talking abt in settings does not hide nav bar but little dot button on left side of Nav Bar sure does it. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Just long tap on it and select Details to see what is it.
Turns out it was auto rotate and because of systemui tuner. It doesn't show up normally though

App needed you can't totally hide it smart guy..
On P10 with Oreo you can hide it..
Go to settings, apps..
Activate system settings and go to Android System.
There you select Notifications and activate or deactivate what you want.

On Mate 10 / 10 Pro this method doesn't work. Only with - Hide "running in the background" Notification - you can do it.

Hi. How do you get rid of the notification when you clear out recents. It says "Your device is now in optimal condition" Very annoying! It will be closer to optimal condition once I get rid of that notification!

Remove VPN icon from status bar (S10+)

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?

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.

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.
