Disable "Data traffic is disabled" notification [SOLVED]

There is a way to disable it. See this post!
Is anyone able to disable the "Data traffic is disabled" notification when switching of mobile data?
On my previous Xperia Arc I could modify custom_settings.xml in "/system/etc/customization/settings/com/android/phone/" to disable it. However, on the Xperia Z this directory does not exist. Creating it, setting the permissions (644) and setting up the file as below does not help. Maybe the version is not right or some line are missing for the Xperia Z...
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<settings version="1">
<setting key="data-connection-except-mms-can-clear-icon" runtime="false">true</setting>
<setting key="data-connection-except-mms-show-icon-when-enabled" runtime="false">false</setting>
<setting key="data-connection-except-mms-show-icon-when-disabled" runtime="false">false</setting>
</settings>

Have you tried a different toggle app? I remember installing a smart toggle app on my Ion and the warning disappeared.

Re: Disable "Data traffic is disabled" notification
Often Sony use a standalone apk to provide this kind of functionality.
I've not looked but it would be in /system/app and usually sensibly named

I want to use Tasker with secure settings for that. When connected to WiFi want it to turn off data to preserve energy. A toggle is not reliable because then I have to keep an eye if it is connected or not. Defeats the purpose.

You don't get it. The switching works of course. I don't want the warning showing up every time I disable data (when connected to WiFi).

Re: Disable "Data traffic is disabled" notification
This is weird,cause i can remove the notification just by swiping or clear.

True. But on my other Xperia's I could disable it all together. When I hop from WiFi to WiFi hotspot I am connected to data in between. Also when WiFi signal is low and often drops you get this message like 20x. It is annoying and has no use.

Usually, Sony uses a separate apk for each such notification and you can just delete it or disable it...
For example the Xperia T has a thing that turns off the phone after 15 minutes if there's no sim inserted is just a separate APK

Maybe Sony uses an apk to show it. Still I have never heard how to disable it that way on the Arc. I could also imagine that you would get problems on other levels when actually deleting stuff. Changing or adding a line is better. On alle my Xperia's (last was the Arc) it was possible to disable it like I showed on post 1. No apk involved. It would be very strange that this would not work for the XZ in a similar fasion. So that's why I asked. But apparently no one knows (yet).

I found a way to disable the Data traffic icon. I've used Elixir 2 from the Google play to do this.
1) Open Elixir
2) Click on "applications" button
3) Click on the options button that is in the left of the button that is like the play button and click "sistem applications"
4) Search "phone" app and click on it, "show details"
5) Desactivate "DataTrafficExceptMmsNotifier", you can find it in "Services"
6) Now reboot.
You must be root!!!
I think all works fine after this.
Sorry for my very bad english.

Wow thanks man. That is one very usefull find!

F*** yeah it is working

Hang on - the OP wanted to disable the popup notofication. Doesn't this just remove the toggle from the status bar?

No no, it's removing only the "Data traffic is disabled" notification.

Indeed. And it works by following the above guide (or page 1).

not the only one. Check and see if you can disable it by going in to settings -> apps -> All -> Power. I can't get rid of it sadly. :/

The only way to permanently remove it now is by rooting.
To temporarily remove it, you can ford close the "Power" app from the App info screen.

What i done was hold it down then stop app it's now gone but can use it in settings

Settings, apps, all, power, turn off notifications, yes

This doesnt work on non rooted devices. The "show notifications" option is greyed out and cannot be unchecked. At least thats how it is on my device running 1.28.401.7.

If you are rooted, you need to either flash a ROM that has that option enabled, or install a mod (like this) to enable it.

I thought ARHD had it. I'll check the link out though.
Thanks,

Any updates on this? What happens if I disable it?

For non-rooted (stock) phones, you can't remove it. You can bypass it by "Force closing" the Power app. But it will come back after a reboot or if your battery goes down to 14% & Power Saver turns on.
As for disabling it, I didn't try, but would expect that you will loose the "Power Saver" function & the options under Settings>Power. ("Power" will be completely gone).

the best way to disable the notification while keeping the power saving app running is to disable the notification receiver activity in the power app.
must have root access
1. install and open an app 'system tuner'
2. click system and wait until all of the apps are there
3. scroll down to 'Power'
4. tap power and then tap details
5. scroll down to "receivers"
6. untick "powersaver.PowerSaverNotificationReceiver"
7. reboot

Flashlight gone from quick settings

Apparently I didn't use my flashlight app enough and it fell out of my quick settings. I can see how to get rid of something, but I can't find anything on how to get it back. I also don't see it as an app anywhere else.

Are you rooted? Have you made any changes? Maybe you installed something to change it

Not rooted, no new apps. I used the WiFi hotspot and then the flashlight went away.

I found another thread with the same problem but no solution.

Is there an answer or am I just SOL?

It came back! I didn't do anything, my flashlight is just in the quick settings again. Yay!?

I wonder what the "time limit" is. I have never used the cast screen button in quick toggles and its still there. I've never lost a toggle.

It will also disappear if you have the camera app open.

Is it certain that it uses time or usage frequency to decide to show something or not? I'm thinking that it is more likely that the flash device crashed, so it took away that which was inaccessible. A reboot made the device accessible again, and back it comes.

Flashlight disappeared from Nexus 6p.
Flashlight disappeared from Nexus 6p and camera app couldn't be started, crashes.
Device restart resolved the problem.

Solution:
The solution is simple. Go to Google app and do a voice command to disable flashlight. Be sure that the Google app give you the message that the flashlight is off. Restart the system and look for the flashlight tile. It should be back.

This works on the 6P with Android 7.1.1
Pull down the Quick Setting Menu. When you do, a pencil will be displayed on the notification line.
Tap the pencil and you will be able to edit the quick settings menu.

Samsung Pay Launch Widget (SOLVED)

My Samsung Pay launch widget is gone (the one you swipe up from the bottom of your phone to make a payment). Anyone else have this problem?

Are you using an adb command to hide the nav bar? Can you still swipe up with the screen off?

No, hadn't used any adb commands. I can swipe up from my lock screen as usual, but that's never been on that screen. From the always-on display, that's a 'no', but again that widget doesn't appear on that screen.

Just two days ago I saw this and enabled the feature. As you can see, this setting is now greyed out! That's not a good sign. I've tried toggling the setting off and rebooting, but no change. I can still use Samsung Pay, but I have to open the app itself.

I've also toggled all the of these off and on, no change. In gonna turn them off, reboot, then see if I can enable them again.

Well that didn't work either! Grrrrr...does not show up!!!

That is super weird. Yeah I dunno, I had a similar issue but it was because of a gestures app hiding the navbar

I remember the Samsung pay thing at the bottom of my screen also. I think it disappeared or I disabled it. Forgot which .

You have to have Home Screen access turned on within Pay to use the swipe up fingerprint gesture

I had that same issue and I believe the fix was to add your card to favorites in the Samsung Pay App.

WiFi guest browser

Hi I'm at a hospital right now and when I go to connect the guest wifi the page where you hit accept won't pop up is there a way to access that built in browser by any chance thanks in advance

Maybe there's a notification banner in the pull-down menu?
Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk

No there isn't cause it should just pop up when you connect to it but nothing

But if it vets covered by an overlay
, sometimes it is sill in Notifications. Maybe it wasn't allowed screen permissions to create a pop-up? Bottom right soft button of recent apps may yield recent activity?
