Asus' app locker notification - Eee Pad Transformer Themes and Apps

Hello
I would like to know if it's possible to remove the notification the app make when it's active.
I think it should be modded, because the in app option doesn't remove the permanent notification.
The app is great but this notification is realy anoying.
I don't have the knowledge to mod it, if it's not too complicated i'd like to have some documents to do it myself, else i won't refuse some help.

[Q] Help with BetterCut Shortcut?

Hello,
I've got a weird problem I'm trying to solve with bettercut. I think it should be relatively easy, but I'm stumped and was wondering if somebody could help me out.
I use an HTC Legend and I like SenseUI too much to change to another launcher. I use an App called SMS Popup to notify me of new messages, but this app - combined with SenseUI - creates a bug with the default Messages shortcut.
Basically, when I mark a message as Read with the SMS Popup, the default Messages shortcut keeps the notification badge telling me I have unread messages. Which is annoying, because to fix this I have to go into the messaging app, scroll to the message I've already read in order to convince SenseUI I've read it.
So basically, what I'm trying to do with BetterCut is launch the SMS app without the system treating it as a Shortcut that needs a notification badge. I read all of my SMSs immediately mostly so I never need it to tell me how many I need to read.
So far, I have the intent as:
android.intent.action.RUN
and the data as:
com.android.MMS
However, when I select this shortcut, it says the app isn't installed.
So could somebody help me either:
1. Make a shortcut with BetterCut to the default Messaging app which won't show notification badges
or
2. Turn off notification badges entirely, because I don't use them for email either and they kinda piss me off.
Thanks!
PS. I've searched forums and google extensively for this, so I wouldn't be asking if I hadn't already tried
Cheers
Anybody? I don't imagine it's that difficult, I'm just missing something
There must be somebody out there who knows how to do this
I could do this all day
Or night, depending on the time

[Q] small envelope logo on my notification bar

I received this envelope on my notification bar and it isn't my gmail, when i scrolled down my status bar i saw the envelope and had some chinese words next to it. is this an ad or spam? how would i solve this annoyance guys? I installed some apps yesterday and deleted them hoping this envelope notification would go away. This envelope only appears when i switch on my wifi. I also read that Go launcher apps such as themes and keyboard skins have airpush ads, could this be true because i do have Go Launcher, and I had that chinese envelope thing on my notification bar, could this have any relation? Thanks to whomever can help. Peace!
Could I have a screenshot to examine?

Install Lookout Ad Network Detector, run it and see what apps are set to allow AirPush ads.
I hate the things - normal adverts to support the Devs are fine, but I refuse to use any app that run AirPush.
I cleared my notification right after I saw the chinese words
Thanks to: SimonTS and gagdude for your interest in helping me out.
I used the Lookout Ad Network Detector app and it found some games that had some ads, and i deleted some games that i didnt play anymore. Sorry, I didn't get the chance to get a screen shot of the app because my Galaxy SL isn't rooted. Is there an app that doesn't need root? I have a screen capture folder on my SL but not sure why it's there knowing I haven't installed any screen capture app... I'm just a rookie with the android platform that's why I'm trying to figure these things out.. O ya, I also get this folder "ppy_cross" when I turn my wifi on. What is this folder? I would delete it but comes right back when I turn my wifi on...?
P.s. about the screen capture i got it, i got the solution from this forum just now: Hold the back key and press home key!

[Q] Hide and password protect a specific app!

Looking for an app that allows me to hide an app (Lets call it "Q") from the system, maybe in such a way that it doesnt appear to be installed either, is this possible? (i have root).
And I also want to password protect Q, all password protectors i find just popup a screen with a enter password-request whenever Q is opened, but Q is very clearly visible with its contents on the multitasking menu of the Galaxy S5, and this isnt good enough.
Its would also be a bonus if the app will not allow itself to be un-installed.
I want real security on this application. Military style. Willing to pay for it.
Does anyone have any tips?
As for app locking, I'd highly recommend AppLocker. Very secure, very reliable, just plain good all around.
As for app hiding, I'm not aware of any apps that do this. However, if you'd like to have it available on your homescreen, many custom launchers (like ADW) offer app shortcut label and icon changing. For example, I use ADW Launcher with the Minimalist theme, and I have my email app password-protected and labelled "Light Bulb" with an illuminated light bulb as the custom icon.
Hope this helps! And if it does, don't forget a thanky!
Get Hide it pro from play store. It has an option to hide apps using root and it won't even show up under Apps in settings.

Unfortunately AppLocker is the first app i tried out. This just pops up a window infront of the screen whenever it notices that Q is open, but it doesnt really help when the recent apps list is up, all the contents are easily visible from the menu :/
When it comes to hiding Q, I was hoping i could make it dissapear from the "Installed applications" list in settings->Applications menu.
If someone steals the phone from me, they are not supposed to be able to find out that this particular app is installed.
Its already hidden from app drawer and is password protected. But if anyone checks the list of actually installed applications, it shows up there, and it also shows up in recent apps list. I want it to vanish

I need these 2 features so that no one can get even closer to my hidden apps. hope u understand

How to find hidden apps

I need help from some serious power users/hackers to find out how my girlfriend is hiding apps on her (unrooted) GS6. I'm a medium-advanced Android user, but this is some good stuff. I know that it may have to do with the notification shade, as she constantly checks it to see if there is anything new, but she has somehow (not through normal OS) disabled chimes and icons in notification bar. I believe that she may have "vaulted" apps, but can't find anything conspicuous in the app manager (even when displaying system files). I believe she can basically hide or "ghost" any app so that it doesn't appear in recent app list, app drawer, or app manager. Is anyone aware of such apps?
One thing I noticed that seems a bit different is in her notification access menu (settings/lock screen and security/other security settings/notification access) there is an entry called "Notification" that I don't normally see.
I'm wondering if maybe it's a dual-boot setup where she can choose which apps to hide from the normal boot via a rooted "clone" boot of the OS? Or maybe an easy way/shortcut to root, then hide apps, then unroot?
Any other ideas?
Oh, also: No custom launcher in use from what I can tell; stock Touch-Wiz only.

Not really sure this is something you should be helping you with, spying on someone isn't the sort of thing we condone at xda
