Hullo,
I apologize if this question has previously been addressed, but I wasn't able to find this stubborn icon's meaning anywhere.
I'm dying of curiosity and also want to make it go away.
I'm referring to the icon to the left of the wifi symbol.
What is it, please?
Thanks!
I think it is the accessibility feature in Jelly Bean, which reads out settings and menus, etc. for disabled people. You should be able to disable it in Settings > Accessibility.

Thanks, but nothing in Settings > Accessibility is enabled other than Auto-rotate screen
FWIW while my sense version is 4.1, my Android is only 4.0.4 ICS

Wait, you were indeed on the right track. I had apparently inadvertently enabled HAC for hearing aids.
Well played and thanks.

Apparently in 4.3, Google changed the way the notification alerts worked again. Now the "display notification" option check in manage apps no longer works the way it should. I understand why it was done, but it still sucks. I hate having all that junk up there. On a related note, I really wish we could disable notifications for all apps...

I thought it was specific to my Note 3, but apparently not.

I have flashed CM 11 on my Xoom Everest. Unfortunately, lockscreen always in Landscape mode, couldn't be set to Potrait. I've tried search in Setting but there's none. Anyone please tell me how to fix this problem?
Thanks.
Did you check the Auto-Rotate in Accessibility under Settings?
Keep no change

Whether I check or not the Auto-rotate in Accessibility under Setting, it doesn't impact on lockscreen mode, always Landscape. Anything else I can do?
It must be a setting in Lockscreen options, I don´t remember exactely where coz now I use OmniRom...
No Option in Lockscreen

There is no option in to change rotation in Lockscreen setting. Where is the location in OmniRom?

Got it. Thanks a lot Obsy!
Just press THANKS button but I don't care too much, I'm glad you solve it!
Hi all,
On Sprint Stock OC9, and rooted.
I am wondering if there is a way to disable some of the system notifications like "Charging... xx minutes Until Full" or the "Location Set By GPS". These are rather unnecessary. The GPS icon can stay but I don't need a notification along with it.
I'm sure there's others.. but those are the two driving me crazy right now.
I hear you on the Location Notification. Also don't like the keyboard switcher either!
I didn't even notice the IME wasn't an option in Language and input. I know on AOSP ROMs you can show and hide that one.

Remove keyboard switcher simply by disabling the other keyboards. I'm only using SwiftKey and that's it.

Go into Settings->Sounds and Notifications->App Notifications. You can then turn off notifications on a per-app basis. For some apps, you can actually long-press on the notification and change the setting.

I think the ones I want to disable are all from System UI.... and there are no options...
Ah, I see. Yeah, might need a special root app for that.
I have an app that I don't want to update. Any way to disable the market update notification?
I've found some old thread but the solution is quite involved.

Thanks
Just go to playstore and disable auto update, if it's from Samsung apps then do the same but on samsung apps.

Yes. But that still get the notification. Annoyance aside, if I'm not careful and click on update all, it will get updated. Is there a way not to even show the update notification?
Go to the Settings > Apps then select your app, Uncheck "Show Notifications" checkbox and done. Maybe that help you.
Try user Cevem's way, it could work. If not then please post a screen shot, that way it would be easier to know what the problem is exactly.

Sorry. I meant the notification from Google Play that an update is available. Not the notification from the app.
I've found 3C toolbox. Its unlink function appears to be permanent, compared to what TB does
So after upgrading to oreo yesterday, LED is blinking for delivery report, which is retarded because i always think someone replied right away. Is there any way to disable this without disable delivery report? I tried search for that specific option in SMS app notifications, but had no luck. Thanks!
Yes, you can turn it off in notification channel settings.

I am sorry, but i am having difficulty locating "notification channel settings", can you please tell me where are those located or what you mean by them? Thanks
edit: tried posting screenshot but i can't, did you mean Settings > Sound & Notification > Advanced > Notifications > Messages (App), i tried various options but couldn't get it to turn off
