A few questions regarding the notification dropdown - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6

I just got my Verizon Galaxy S6 and I love it after debloating it with CleanROM Lite and disabling any unnecessary apps. I have a couple questions regarding the dropdown menu though.
Here's what mine currently looks like: https://i.imgur.com/sArnGjj.png
My questions are,
1. Can I hide that charging notification? I don't need a notification to know that my phone is being charged. It's pointless and takes up space.
2. Is there a way to change the name of buttons on the quick settings panel? The 'Mobile Hotspot' button takes up two lines which I don't like.
3. Is there a way to remove the "Verizon Wireless" from the bottom of the notification drawer? I remember being able to do this on my Galaxy S3 a long time ago, so I'm wondering if it's still possible.
Thanks!

The only thing I can think of is for you to root and flash extreme syndicate rom. Alliance framework I believe you can change the Verizon text and you can remove the text from the toggles period. I don't know of a solution for the charging notification at the moment.

Notifications bar

I know Asus probably felt like they just had to bring their contribution to ICS, but the minute I saw the noticiations bar I realised this just couldn't have made by Google (too ugly, doesn't fit in and laggier than the stock one). So is there any way to get the stock ICS notifications back?
Maybe you should take a look at the settings before asking a stupid question like this.
lol would anyone like me to port these to ics?

Go into settings, select ASUS customized setting, then under notification panel uncheck Use ASUS Quick Setting.
After this it shows the old honeycomb notifications bar, what i dont unterstand is, why you can't deactive notifications in the new asus bar.
To remove all notifications, tap the X at the bottom of the notification screen.
To remove one notification, swipe from left to right on that notification and it is gone.
I don't mind it tbh.

[Q] [VZW] Power widget in notification area, Weird icon near clock.

Hey all,
I've got a Verizon SGS3 and I had a couple questions.
1. The notification power widget. It's got so much stuff and it takes up a lot of room on the notification shade. Is there a way to eliminate it or remove some of the useless ones? I never use bluetooth.
2. There's also a weird icon next to my 4G icon near the clock. Anyone know what it is? http://i.imgur.com/Cat4R.png And if I can get rid of it?
Also, bonus question: A way to remove all the useless ****ing share options for pictures/other files? I will never use S-Memo, Color, Group Cast, Messaging, Backup-assistant plus to share any of this ****. Go away.
Me too!
I have disabled everything I can think of and this icon will not go away!

I believe that's the "Wi-Fi Notification" icon that is persistent in Verizon SGS3 phones.
The only way currently known to disable it is to root the phone and modify a database value use a SQLite Editor.

Customize toggles in notification bar

Hello,
I write this post because I need some information for the personalization of my nexus5 (kitkat stock rom).
I would like to customize the toggles accessible from the notifications bar.
I need to have:
-A button that allows me to enable or disable the data network (currently enters clicking in the statistics and from there I have to click the button on / off)
-A button that allows me to make 2g/3g/4g switch (sometime if i need only use whatsapp i use edge for saving battery)
Have you any suggestions?
I know someone will chase the rabbit of the hat!
Thank you,
xSliv3r
HI
Please try
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.notificationToggle
I use Power Toggles:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.painless.pc
It works very well and you can create toggles for your Notification area or as Widgets for you homescreen.
Hi,
thanks for your answers!
I've tried this app but there isn't possibility to add nothing in quick toggles area...
With this app, minewhile, i've added the toggles in notification area...
Have you ideas?
Thanks,

I have root but don't think this is available unless you flash a custom ROM, I'm just praying for AKOP to release something...

Has anyone with Root access tried GravityBox Xposed app yet? That should do the trick but I don't know if they updated to 4.4 support yet.
the xposed framework doesn't work on 4.4 yet, sadly. The developer just ordered an N5, and is already looking at the issues, so hopefully we'll have an update soon.
you've already got a data toggle, press and hold the centre button which has the signal icon on it. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth work exactly the same way, quick press into settings, long press toggle. Arse about face compared to others but it works.
I couldnt install either of those apps..kept getting error 920...awesome.
Had the phone in my hand for an hour and debating sending it back for a few reasons.i dont know why google wouldnt implement quick panel..its a basic must have for many

Im just waiting for the up to date Cyanogenmod build to be developed and released which will have fully customizable expanded quick setting tiles as standard. Its what I usually do with all my Nexus devices.

I have used the various 23 Toggle mods, battery mods etc that are available for the Note 2, S3 etc. Looking forward to these being available for the N5... but development takes time.
coming from CM on my old LG P990, this is the only thing that I'm missing ; customizable quick setting tiles.
I use old good Widgetsoid. Very customizable.

GravityBox
I'm using GravityBox and works very well. I recommend you to try it. It needs root acces.
I'm using Quicker Free
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bwx.bequick2
It is similar to the QuickPanel in appearance but allows you to add and remove the settings you like. Also allows you to make more than one screen of settings.
Actually just tried out Power Toggles and like it better than Quicker Free
Just use Cataclysm rom. It's pretty much stock rom with a few added options like this

I use extended settings haven't tried any of the other options really but it does what i need it to do and i think it meets your needs and its also free but there is a paid version with some extra features

[Q] Notification bar pop-up settings

On the S6 when you get a notification on WhatsApp for example, the notification blocks the whole notification bar and stays there for an annoyingly long time
So until the bar goes away you can't swipe down the notification bar.
What settings would I need to change in order to fix this? Maybe stop it blocking the whole notification bar every time I get a message.
Sometimes I get more than one message in a row so it will be there for a long time.
There is probably a really obvious answer for this but I have yet to find it
Any ideas?

Its a feature that sadly comes by default in Lollipop and there is no option to disable it. Unless the app specifically allows you to disable Headsup notifications theres nothing to be done. We are sadly stuck until Google or Samsung realize this is a ****ty way to receive notifications and gives us the damn notification ticker from kitkat back..
I just rooted my S6 just to get rid of this stupid heads up.
I found a guide using SQLite editor.
Open folder File then: /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
Choose Global and find heads_up_notifications_enable and set to 0 instead of 1. Save and reboot.
Worked for me

Not sure if you are aware of this but you can dismiss the message by swiping to the side. Similar to how you would if you were in the actual notification shade.
Took me awhile before I figured this out. I'm much less annoyed by it now.
So theres no way to get the kit kat notifications without root?

Removing lockscreen notifications?

Hello guys, I just wanted to ask whether it would be possible to remove lockscreen notifications but keep them on Always on Display?
I have already posted this question on Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus forum but I did not get the answer so I wanted to ask here.
Thank you in advance!
Not sure about the Sammies but my HTC has a separate menu item for Lockscreen messages. By always show I assume you mean when the phone is unlocked, so that when you're playing a game or something the message pops up. The quickest way to find out if you have the option to hide sensitive messages or not display them at all on your lockscreen is to go to settings and in the search bar at the top begin typing Lockscreen. It should popup in the results. Depending on the apps you use I know some have options within the app for when, where and how to display notifications. Handcent/Next SMS is one that comes to mind.
