Removing Orange customisation from Huawei U8320 (Barcelona) - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

I've just bought an Orange Barcelona handset (also called Huawei U8320 or Huawei Boulder). I've rooted the device and used Titanium Backup to freeze all the Orange bloatware applications. However, there's a permanent notification in the notification bar.
The notification says "Data service is enabled" and it is referring to the mobile network's data service. Even when I'm connected to WiFi, it still shows. If I disable the mobile data network, then it changes to "Data service is disabled".
This is extremely annoying as it takes up a large amount of screen real estate when the notification bar is pulled down and permanently displays an icon in the notification bar on the top left of the screen.
Does anyone know how I can make this go away? Is there an Orange service I can freeze?
TIA

[Q] Background data permanently disabled

Hi guys,
I have a new Atrix 2 unlocked and using it with a non-US operator.
I am constantly getting notification "Background data disabled" in the status bar. When I go to Settings->Battery&Data manager->Data delivery the "Background data" option is greyed out.
If I open Android Market, I get a pop-up telling me I need to enable background data and this takes me to what looks like original Android data settings menu (not Motorola customized) where I can enable the background data (this change is reflected also in still greyed out Data Delivery option in Motorola Battery&Data manager) and now Market runs fine.
However, I still have the Background data disabled notification in the popup.
Does anyone know how to get rid of the notification and how to make it possible to change this settings in Motorola customized settings?
The phone is also rooted (to get rid of AT&T logo in status bar).
And one more - does anyone know how to enable Edge (2G) vs 3G data selection? It's not available in Settings anywhere.
Thanks.
For switching between 2g/3g take a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1456609
Not so sure though as to why the background data option is grayed out.
Thanks, 2G/3G resolved now.

Remove roaming notification and Data roaming warning

Is there any way to remove the roaming notification which shows the triangle in the notification bar?
Also when roaming there is a constant pop-up of a data roaming warning. Is there any way to remove that?

I know this is old,but I've seen a lot of other people ask. so in case people search for this here's a suggestion.
Under the mobile data settings, select allow roaming for all trips.
When the triangle appears, long press on the notification in the notification bar until app info appears.
Click that and the uncheck show notifications. No more triangle.

Unwanted notification icon of mobile data connection on HTC E8

Hi everyone!
I just bought a new HTC E8 Dual Sim from Hong Kong, which arrived already rooted and almost clean from manufacturer apps. However, I am going crazy over a notification icon that is completely useless.
Every time my phone connects to mobile data, a strange notification would appear, showing two arrows, one black and one white, pointing one up and one down, on the top left corner. This notification is pointless, as I can see the device is connected by looking at the right side of the status bar, right next to the signal bars where a nice H+ is displayed. This notification only shows CONNECTED if looked while the screen is locked.
Unfortunately I can't post screenshot as this is my first thread, if someone knows how I can attach screenshots, please let me know.
Apparently this notification is generated by the app PHONE, whose notifications cannot be disabled (the checkbox is greyed out into the normal settings pane) and cannot be frozen using Link2SD (otherwise both SIMS stop working the device ceases to work as a phone).
If I force stop the app the icon would disappear straight away, but would reappear again at the following mobile data connection, just as nothing happened.
I've tried to download XPOSED ADDITIONS to see if I could get some more tools to work on it, but it seems not to work on this device; if I tap on it, an error message prompts saying "The XposedAdditions System Service is currently not enabled" and some other stuff I couldn't get rid of.
Can someone help me remove that notification?
Thanks guys!

Blocking notification bar when phone is locked

Hi guys,
I see that if my phone (Huawei P10)is locked I can enable/disable mobile data, wi-fi, location, basically anything setting that can be managed from the notification bar.
How can i block this, so that you cannot open the notification bar?
Like this, if my phone gets stolen, the thief can disable the location or mobile data and I cannot track my phone...
Any ideas?

Question LenovoServices is running

The past few updates and now this "Lenovo Services" app is now constantly running. I've tried to force stop it; nope. I can't "mute" the notification.
Any of you even know what this app is? When did it get installed and for what purpose is it there?
Thanks.

I've been regularly updating (Xiaoxin Pad Pro / P11 Pro) but never encountered "Lenovo Services". I do have "Device Service" (package name com.lenovo.lsf.device) which wants to connect to AliCloud in Germany a couple of times per day. I don't allow it on my software firewall (currently NoRoot Firewall), so no notifications from there.

I just double-checked and it is indeed there. I will post a screenshot if that helps you. Furthermore, I'm unable to uninstall it or remove the notification that it is running.
I checked the app, and it has no permissions granted other than "draw over other apps" but nothing for storage or location or contacts.
I'm on a US device if that makes a difference. Someone here must have the same thing I would assume?
I do have the same service running on mine and unable to hide it from notifications.
Time to go play in the Registry...
At least there is a way to "hide it" see here: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo...ervices-is-Running/m-p/5083807?page=2#5447336
swipe down to see the "LenovoServices is running" notification and tap on it, it goes to the app settings page
Here you have 2 options
tap on Force Stop, it stops the notification but also the service itself (which is probably not a big problem, I've received an update, today, with this service killed). No notification in the status bar, no notification in the pull-down
Or
tap Notifications, DownloadService
there you see two main options, Alerting and Silent, it's on Alerting
switch to Silent and tap Minimise, notification gone from status bar but it's still in the pull-down, service still running

Good info. Thanks. Although still no explanation as to what it's doing or, how it got on there in the first place.
