Volume Icon

Hi,
Does anyone know if there is a way to get rid of the volume icon in the task bar?
A registry setting would be preferable to installing an app.
Cheers

Agree - annoying waste of space, In fact would be good if there was some kind of menu to select between all the icons you want to have displayed / hidden
I have the same question regarding...battery icon
I'm using WKTASK so battery indicator is shown as small line just above the taskmenu - it's perfect for me. I can exchange battery for clock via QuickMenu but have no idea how to get rid of them both.

I second this. I think an app or anything else that works should contain options for all icons. I would think they would all be treated the same for flagging on and off.
anyone shed any light on this?

[Q] Manage notifications individually?

Loving my new Sensation but one frustration is that if I get several notifications (new email, new SMS, app notifications, etc) the only way to clear those badges is to swipe down and then click on each one. I don't necessarily want to check each email as it comes in or care that an app has finished downloading, etc.
Is there a method or app for managing these notifications so that (for example) I can just get rid of a new email notification without having to open the email / Gmail app?
erm have u tried pressing the clear button at the top of the notification bar?

Yeah OK I can do that but it doesn't achieve what I want. What I'm getting at is that I want to clear some and leave others .... I think I read that in Sense 3.5 you can swipe left or right on individual notifications to clear them and this is what I'm after.

Text Message Notification Problem

Just curious if this is a problem for just me or if anyone else has noticed it as well (Sense problem, maybe?)
When I have a text notification in my drop down panel, I select it, and nothing happens. The notification panel disappears (which you'd expect to happen when selecting it) but my SMS app never opens.
Anyone else? or am I alone?

Are you using stock sms app? You are dragging the app down to the ring right?

Stock app, yes - but not talking about from the lock screen. Just in general.
SMS comes in, alert is in my notification panel, I select it, and the app doesn't actually open.

Could you accidentally be "swipe to clear"ing it?

Nope. the notification stays. SMS comes in, notification pops up, I select it, notification panel goes away, but I'm still in the same app (or homescreen etc).that I was in prior to attempting to open the notification.
SMS app loads fine from homescreen shortcut, but rarely opens from the notification panel.
Have not seen that problem, but have had problems with not receiving notifications every time I receive a message. Perhaps the problems are related? Out of curiosity, have you noticed if the problem happens more often when the phone is charging?
Don't know yet if the update solved the problem...

Well, I rooted and installed LeeDroid, so my problem has disappeared.
Good luck!
I'm still on stock and rooted and I know exactly what youre talking about.

I almost never get a notification when I receive a text. No sound, vibration, no little number on the icon. It seems to not want to notify me when I am using the phone.

Probably a daft question, but have you tried changing the settings from within the Messages app (Open the app, then Settings > Notifications)? These are different from the settings in the Phone Sound settings menu.

Change location of sms popup notification

Wondering if it is possible to change where the sms notification pops up. To me it would make the most sense to have it go in the center of the screen, but I guess the top left corner is usually out of the way of most content. Anyone know if this is possible?

i think right now there is no way to change this but who knows maybe somebody will say its possible but as of now i don't think it is.

Question WTF is this little stick figure icon on the left/notification side of my status bar? UPDATE, screenshots and found out what it is

Every now and then I'll see a stick figure icon on the left side of my status bar by the clock and on the lock screen/aod in a bubble.
when I unlock the phone or pull down the notification panel any info disappears.
Anyone know what this little guy is for and how to get rid of him?
and the screenshot is.................? kinda hard to help if we don't see what it is..
The only icon I can think of that resembles a stick figure is the SMART THINGS icon.

It;s a stick figure, like the stick figure that was coming up on peoples nav bar on 8's and 9's for accessibility settings
it looks JUST LIKE THIS ONE IN THE PINK CIRCLE without the dots under it but its a icon by the clock
When you need a hug. Push this. That makes you more accessible.
here are screeenshots, I got it in action.
It has something to do with one of the apps I enabled in accessibility mode.
Anyway to stop the "check access settings" little guy notification from coming up

If you tap on the icon and bring up that app's notification settings, there may be an option to never notify for accessibility notifications.

Tasker app has autonotification module/app that can be used to hide these nuisance notifications

What is the widget/notification app are you using for the battery and clock, and how did you get the refresh rate on the notification panel?

Thanks, no clue then. It must be one of the apps, maybe the Galaxy HZ app having access to screen as it shows the stick figure in the notification as well. Check the app in Accessibility settings and try disabling it.
Also, what is the other app with moon and glowing clock? (screenshot attached)..looks cool

Weather neon, TONS of customizations for it, from dozens of widgets of all sizes down to changing colors of every piece individually.
that's just the notification one I liked but there are a ton more, and a big main one with different clocks
it's worth checking out, some stuff is iffy with it tho

My stickfig has a purpose, I can dim the screen at night or brighten it up. The icon comes up when you slide out the 'stick'. You can park this feature anywhere, to enable go to 'visibility enhancements' >>'extra dim'(screenshot is from S22)
So I'm guessing you can disable your stick figure somewhere there as well.
