I don't want to void my warranty just to remove the carrier name from the upper left side of my status bar but my carrier name is quite long and taking up space that could be filled by notifications.
Does anyone know how I can remove the carrier name without rooting my phone?
You could try RockMyMoto by jcase but I'm not sure it'd work on the Moto G.
It's such a cheap phone though..are you honestly that worried about unlocking the bootloader?
Suppose I already have root, how do I get rid of the damn thing? MotoXposed does get rid of it but also crashes SystemUI every couple of minutes so that does not help. Perhaps I should look at the specific part of MotoXposed and try to hack it into Gravity Box...

do you have Xposed Framework installed on top of MotoXposed, with motoxposed enabled?
Have you tried a reboot after applying the label removal fix?
Now, do you have root or not?
If yes, take SystemUI.apk from here.

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.
hi all,
just got a moto g, just wanna check with everyone, its a dual-SIM enabled phoine but i only require the use one 1. as a result, the second SIM notification is always on the top right of the notification bar. any way to remove that?
thanks!
bump for any answer to this !
I believe you can edit it on Xposed + Gravity Box combo. You can also flash a single sim rom, I believe.

Maybe this helps you.
If he could activate another signal meter in the Status Bar then you can deactivate it maybe in the same way.

i failed to mention, i was looking for any non-root solution, since its a new phone and i m new to rooting myself, i am wary of voiding the warranty just yet.
it is a bit surprising that there is no simple way to turn off those icons in the status bar when using single SIM.

I tried to delete that line but it only made the phone unable to detect any sim cards.
I also tried to use Gravity Box, but I failed to find any options there to remove the 2nd sim notification.
Are there any other ways?
I updated gravity box and installed Android N ify, after that I couldn't use my soft keys. I uninstalled both apps but nothing happened. I am using the latest ROM with ElementalX.

That's why you should always take a backup before you do/try things that can affect your operating system.
A possible solution is to uninstall xposed framework with the flashable uninstaller zip and dirty flashing the ROM you are running. Its possibly a setting you accedently enabled without knowing what you we're doing.

You're first post was on the 24th and you post again today. Have you really been going 5 days without softkeys?
First off, when you say you couldn't use your softkeys, are you saying they are visually their and tapping them does nothing. Or are they gone completely? GravityBox is the only module out of those two that can hide or even disable the softkeys. Did you turn them off in the app under the navigation bar options? There is also an expanded desktop mode in the "display tweaks."
Simply installing gravity box and N-ify shouldn't disable your softkeys as long as you are using everything right.

It was a backup device, I don't know what I did. I uninstalled both apps and still had this issue. And expanded desktop was of when I did it, it appeared that it just didn't simply load.

I will try that, I'll keep posted when I do it
I got a new case for my phone and it blocks a tiny portion of the notification bar, which can make pulling it down a bit of a chore. Wondering if there are any options out there to deal with this. Thanks.
Is your phone rooted? If not, then no way. With root, you may have options, depending on ROM, etc.

Dunno. You can google it.
If you have root and install Xposed, this Xposed module may work according to description:

I've had a read through other threads and got no solutions. Not rooted and I don't understand it enough to try.
1) Removing the Korean clock from the lockscreen. Quickshortcutmaker doesn't have permissions to create the roaming clock shortcut, and I can't give it permissions through normal settings.
2) Custom lockscreen. I wanted to customise the lockscreen with KLKC but it doesn't override the default lockscreen. I've read something about needing certain roms, but nothing specific to this phone.
3) every time I turn data on/off there's an annoying popup - how can I remove this?
4) is it possible to customise the onscreen buttons (the triangle, square, circle) without root?
5) is it possible to remove the DnD notification? I managed to remove it from the lockscreen but it's still there if I drop down the bar.

Sorry I do not know about the lockscreen, but I think some apps can possibly do it with the write SECURE SETTINGS provided by adb permission. They need to be specifically made to work with that though. Is the pop-up for data "activating your device"?
After try many way to remove dual clock on lock screen on V50 running android Q, I got no success.
So i flash back android P to remove dual clock, and succeed
Quickshortcutmaker Permissions
Did you ever get a solution to your problems that you posted about in January? I recently purchased the V50, and installed Android 10 right away. Then I learned that I needed to have Android 9 in order to remove the dual (Korean) clock. I successfully reverted to Android 9, and then installed quickshortcutmaker. But when I get to the roaming clock settings and click "Try" I get this message: "Sorry. You cannot launch this activity from this app because it requires some additional permissions to launch." How do I get those permissions, so that I can disable the dual clock?
If I understand your posting correctly, it sounds like this might be the same problem you were having. Have you found a solution? I really want to get the dual clock removed, and then reinstall Android 10 to begin using the phone. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you very much.

As far as I know you need Android 8 to do it. I've kept mine on as I no longer pay attention to it. If there's a way of getting KLCK to work I'll look into that but as it stands I just ignore the second clock.

I reverted to V500N11m version and quickshortcut maker worked without asking permission, you might have reverted to newer version than *11m , try this "m" version again to see if it works :fingers-crossed:
Finally worked!
Thanks for your reply. Actually, just prior to getting your reply, I tried installing an earlier version of Android 9, instead of the most recent, and it worked! I'm so glad to have gotten rid of the dual clock.
