Anyone know of a way to disable the daily forecast notification, or at least the sound without disabling all notification sounds? I have been looking around and maybe I'm just blind but I can't see to find it.

Would it be possible to place an Edit button into the Notification Window, For example, next to the Clear Button which clears all your notifications? What it would do is let you edit the Notification bar how you want (Change Notification colors and things like that). I know you can already do that in the Spare Parts App In Superbad CyanogenMod but I was just curious if that was a more convenient alternative.

If you ask me, thats already extremely convenient. You're lucky you have the option to do it from the phone.
I prefer it the way it is=p it would be annoying having to see that every time I get a text...
On the other hand, adding some sort of editable region on top of the notification bar could be a neat idea. Like for example, I would put a toggle for brightness so that I could have easy acess to it without needing to go to home and use a widget. The behold 2 and galaxy s have this little power control thingy in the notification bar to toggle brightness, wifi, gps, etc and it would be cool to port that over.

that would be sweet!
The only picture I could find of the behold 2 was in the pdf manual It's small and on page 10 if anyone cares. http://support.t-mobile.com/doc/tm30312.pdf
I think a shortcut to spare parts from settings would do the trick.
How about putting the power control widget on the notification bar next to the operator name? That would be cool and convient.
What I wouldn't mind seeing is a button on each notification for selective clearing of notifications...
Specifically on the G1 when I'm installing many apps from the market then I have unread emails and sms, I want to clear up all the installed notifications without wiping all the notifications. :\

I'm in complete agreement. If there was some way to have selective clearance of the notification area without actually launching said notification, that would be fantastic.

I am in agreement with both of these! I'm starting to learn Android from the ground up and if nobody beats me to it, I'm gonna work on this.
Well Im glad that me posting this has made some positive ripples in the community.
I have seen multiple threads about people asking why android notification ro status bar shows not only the Contact but also the message received via
SMS, or
Whatsapp, or
other social applications.
Now rather surprisingly, this is covered in iphone ios where you can disable notifications and alerts but stil have badges for icons showing missed count. This thread is not for the missed count since we all know how to get them. The issue is how to get rid of the notification bar pull down which shoes your message to anyone using or testing or praising your phone.
There are three possible solutions to this,
Disable notifications.....this cant be done through android os because the only option we have is to disable sms notifications and not for other apps like whatsapp.
Lock the notification bar....this means that even if the notification icon is there, you cant pull it down. Or maybe a passsword to pull it down.
Auto Clear notifications.. This means a utility that automatically "CLEARS" the notifications as and when they are received. Which will mean we stil have the notification sound of a message, the unread count is stil there ons creen but notification is cleared from the status bar
Is there a decent notifications manager on the lines above for android?
Has anyone ever found a way to disable, hide, lock or autoclear the notifications.
I am not talking about hiding the task bar like in launchers. but maybe a way to PERMANENTLY HIDE the status bar.
Someone?
Go to /system/app (Your device is rooted, right?) and freeze/remove SystemUI.apk
If you don't understand what I am saying above, don't try it or it will bring you to more trouble.

I am on LG optimus 3d and root is not an option.
Nevertheless, i understand the framres.apk, but i would want to know more about system UI you mentioned? Mind shedding some light?
thanks
Any help fellows?
Hey guys--
I've noticed an issue with the stock clock app since upgrading to KK. It adds a notification 2 hours before any alarm with the option to disable it, which is fine but unnecessary and it makes my status bar very sloppy since there's 2 alarm icons at that point. I'd rather just disable it.
I've researched and supposedly there's a setting in the clock app to disable it if you go to settings from the alarm screen. That doesn't seem to be the case in my version. Does anyone know if Moto removed that from their skin?
Any other ideas how to resolve this?
One idea I saw was to disable the clock app's permission for making a notification. Tried that, and the second icon did indeed still gone, obviously. But the alarm didn't work right. It sounded, but the screen didn't go on and the phone didn't vibrate. When I woke it up manually, the sound kept going off, but the only way to dismiss the alarm was to launch the app and turn the slider to off because no alarm screen ever appeared.
Any other ideas how to more successfully disable that notification?
Thanks!
I have a rooted Nexus 5 and I flashed the factory image for Android Lollipop. I like the clean design but I don't really like the heads-up notifications. You know, the white pop up at the top that covers 25% of your screen. I'm trying out QKSMS and I see a little icon when I get a message, that's enough for me so I don't need an extra notification. It also sometimes pops up when I receive something from Facebook Messenger, but not always for some reason, which is also quite annoying. So is there any way to disable the heads-up notifications? Thanks in advance!
Agreed. I prefer notifications to be discreet. I don't want the contents of private texts to pop-up onscreen if I'm showing something to a friend/co-worker. It would be nice to be able to choose between the Kitkat style of scrolling ticker text in the status bar and L's heads-up notifications. Or to turn them both off and simply have the app icon appear in the status bar, requiring a notification shade pull-down to view the contents.
Choice is good.
I dislike it because often I can't deal with the notification straight away, but still want it in the notification draw for later. With these heads up notifications (which I get for EvolveSMS) I can't get it out the way without it being completely dismissed, it's annoying.
This could be solved with simply adding the function that swiping up will send it to the notification draw
Yeah I'm currently inclined to stick with KK until I know that the worst aspects of Lollipop can be controlled. Obviously in the absence of Xposed on ART it's difficult to make little tweaks here and there.
Heads-up is right at the top of my list. I have always liked how notifications NEVER attack my screen space in Android 2.0-4.4 and I'm not about to go along with a regression to iPhone-like behaviour. When I can disable it globally or on a per-app basis I'll be much more comfortable with the idea of upgrading.
My other biggest concern: The old Silent mode functionality was to allow user-configured audible alarms, while shutting off all other audible notifications and silencing all vibrations. The new modes, you have to choose between a None that also silences alarms, or a Priority mode that lets vibrations leak through.
It's kind of hilarious actually, this is the first time in history that I've been dragging my feet on an Android upgrade when all my less techie friends are upgrading. In the past I'd be proud to be the first one to upgrade and show it off to everyone stuck on the old version.
So, a few weeks later... Are there any ROMs or mods that allow users to disable the heads up feature entirely across the board?

I hate heads up, they are very intrusive, i prefer something more discreet...
I apololgize for bumping this old thread, but has there been any update with this? I'm looking for an SMS app that allows you to disable the heads up style pop-up notifications, but also allows you to reply from notifications. Textra and ChompSMS allow you to disable heads up notifications on Lollipop, but they dont allow you to reply from notification (like EvolveSMS, QKSMS). I'm looking for an app that incorporates both features. Any luck?
With HeadsOff lollipop heads-up notifications can now be disabled!
No root needed.
You can also restore the ticker text in the statusbar!
Give it a try:

i'm hoping this is a really easy fix (i'm coming from using an iphone for 10 yrs):
Some of my apps, such as Fitbit, and even google's weather, send me multiple notifications during the day for a period update, but the most frustrating this is that it'll keep adding an icon for that app into the status bar, so for example for 3 notifications for fitbit, there will be 3 fitbit icons in the status bar. it's annoying, and stupid -- is there a way to turn it off or make it "merge" somehow?
i can't believe this clutter is acceptable way of default notifications.
