So, i upgraded to Fresh 3.5 which is based off of the OTA 3.70. and now when i keep 4G on and there is no 4G signal around that notification icon sits on the top left corner of the task bar. it's a 4G icon with an exclamation point on it and when you pull the notification bar down it says "4G antenna is ON, tap to scan for 4G service" can someone please find a way to hide this icon. I like to keep 4G turned on all the time and don't want to keep seeing this every time the 4G connection drops. TIA.
I second this!!
We can't be the only two to find this annoying.

Sprint could get all information from user.. note phone is rooted and flag account
No they can't, I'll called them today, no flagging or anything. And remember rooting is not illegal, and they cannot flag your account for doing it. Their saying this is a feature to save battery life. I disagree. My thought is they couldn't figure out how to get the 3G to 4G handoff to happen properly so this is their solution. BTW, I've had nothing but problems with 4G stalling since I've owned the phone so this is still an issue.
For those of you wanting to lose the constant notification. It's in the framework-res.apk You can use Gimp to make it transparent and then push the framework back to your phone. Or you can pull your framework and make your own flashable zip. Then you can keep modifying anytime you want to change something with 7-zip.
It's actually not in framework-res, and making the image transparent keeps the spacing allocated and continues to display the notification text in the "notifications" section of the drop down window.
So, having said that, consider the attached (flash via recovery) EXTREMELY experimental. It "should" remove all the corresponding 4G notifications. What I don't know, is if in doing so, it breaks the ability to automatically reconnect when leaving and re-entering a 4G area. This isn't as easy to remove as icons to the right of the status bar, or even some on the left. This uses android's built-in notifications framework, which requires ongoing services, etc, to report activity on the top left side, and in trying to break its display, it is certainly possible more than just its display has been "broken".
Again, give it a shot and see if it works without any unintended side affects. But, be warned, as mentioned, it may. Just not sure, as I haven't been able to test it enough to verify it works as intended.
Nandroid before flashing so you can restore more easily if it doesn't work as intended.
It flashed just fine, I haven't left my 4G area yet so well see if it effects reconnection. I let everyone know. Now I just need to change the scanning frequency interval back to what it was before because it seems that the interval is longer now, thus they put a button on the notification bar to instantly activate it. Thank you Sir for your help, and a Happy Christmas and Merry New Year to everyone.
After looking at the wimax setting the values that changed are-
Previous- wimax entry delay(s)600
Current- wimax entry delay(s) 300
and
Handoff Threshold
Previous - 0
Current - 6
I changed my handoff back to 0 and well see what happens, and I'll try 3 and report back.
I'm also going to lower entry delay and see what it does to battery life.
The (Previous) settings are taken from a post from July, so who know what there were a few weeks ago.
I can confirm that the .zip file works perfectly. Gets rid of the notification and reconnection works fine. Still playing with the scan settings in regards to battery life.
Finally, back on the forum. Thanks for making this mod. Downloading now and will give it a try.

Cool, thank for the additional confirmation.
Sorry to be so noobish. I just got my first android phone and just (stupidly) applied this update today and I hate how it doesn't reconnect the 4g automatically and makes me rescan. I really wish I could make the 4g how it was before.
My phone is not rooted or anything its just an HTC evo with a white backing right out of the box and updated. What should I do?
I'd be more than happy to donate to the developer of this method just need a little help here please.

You beat me to the same question. While it is trivial to undo, how did you apply in the first place?
I guess it is feasible to extract the apk from the zip, and manually click to install from your sd card, but somehow I doubt this is what was done...
Either way, for future edification, since you would have to know what apk it is, if you installed it this way, why not just download a stock ROM and pull out the same apk and re-apply?
This is what I have done and attached.

thankyou for the help just what ive been looking for.
(Sorry if this thread needs to be put anywhere else)
I have read a few different threads about this, and its mainly pertaining to the sound. And 'freezing the fullbatterypopup' in the systems folder does not seem likely, as I dont want to pay for the full version of titanium just for this issue.
This page says it all = http://www.xda-developers.com/android/stop-battery-full-popup-on-android/
But the link is dead. Is their aaany way at all to get rid of this annoying popup after the charge? I dont care about the sound, its the bright light that kills me. I use one night stand for a night clock and the phone's right next to me.
Im using Ultimate G2x ROM right now. (2.2.2) I switch between a few, but would like to know if theirs either a work around or a simple stop thats possible.
Thank You!
Stop battery full popup notification and others
I too have been STFA trying to find a way to stop this pop up notification as well as other secondary confirmation pop ups that are annoying as shat (are you sure? are you sure?) this may be fine for the masses that have decision making issues, but I don't need this crap.
Can someone please help in finding a way to stop some of these annoying pop ups, any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
The only way to stop that popup is to install CM7 or another AOSP-based ROM.
Anything that's based on LG's ROMs will have that popup. No one has been able to figure out how to remove them from LG-based ROMs.
Yes, That is truly annoying!!!

Since updating to Gingerbread my bars sometimes show no bars though there is no X for Signal so i an still make calls. I see it is possible on other androids but is there a Mod for the X10? I cant seem to find one that will work on my X10. Just curious.
I tried UOT Kitchen but no such luck even creating a better battery icon with percentage. I also tried smali but can not seem to be able to open the jar like other files to experiment there.
my apologies if this is somewhere else I didn't seem to find anything related to X10 for this other than dBm replacing signal bar.

I cant see why not. can you find a rom / link / somewhere that has one already? to use a a reference
Pvy.
Like THIS?
I tried looking everywhere but couldn't find any questions or answers. I didn't really have the time to sort through over 100 pages. This isn't really a huge problem..just a few things i liked about the phone. First of all, why are some of the tweaks disabled? Is there a way to enable them? Also, is my gps not turning on or does the icon in the notification bar just not show up? Then, the vibrate feedback, for the four keys at the bottom are extremely low. Just wondering if this happens with anyone else's phone.
