Annoying 'sign into network' notification

So I keep having this 'sign into network' notification for my mobile data, even though I dont have a plan. Normally I would just turn off my data all together, but this seems to interfere with me getting MMS. The problem is my carrier offers a screen so I can buy data for 24 hours, and this is what pops with when I tap the notification. I tried selecting the 'Do not use this network' option in the pop-up but the notification just pops up again later. Is there a way to permanently disable this notification with out turning off my data or buying a data plan?

Charge your phone man!

[SOLVED] WiFi doesn't turn OFF

Hi guys!
I have an XT1540, 2gb/16gb version (Retail US) on Marshmallow.
This is the situation: I'm not always at my house. So, I turn off WiFi when I don't use it. But, even though I turn off WiFi, it remains ON. This does not affect the battery duration. I also notice this when I toggle WiFi on using the tile under quick settings, it seems WiFi was always on because it shows available networks immediately.
Yes, I have turned off "Wi-Fi scanning" under Settings > Location > three dots > Scanning, so there is no reason why WiFi is always ON!
Does any of you have the same issue? I attached some screenies. :good:
Want to hear from you guys...
EDIT: I found the solution. Even though I disabled Always scanning on Settings > Location, Wi-Fi always was ON!
I used to go to *#*#4636#*#* > Wi-Fi information > Wi-Fi status and Supplicant state always said SCANNING.
Went to Developer options and scrolled down to Networking and turned ON "Always allow Wi-Fi Roam Scans". When you turn this on, it disallows the always scanning supplicant state. Now Wi-Fi totally turns off when I select the tile in quick settings!
See attachments!

I think it's common marshmallow bug, not only in Moto devices but even Nexus devices facing this issue.
After some reboots it goes back to normal.

Well, after rebooting my device this "issue" is still present... Anyway thanks for the feedback!

Then maybe resetting network settings and wiping cache in recovery will be the solution, because it has solved my Wi-Fi drains.

It may sound too noobish but just check these-
Are you using the quick setting tile's down arrow to expand the WiFi list? I can't remember the behavior on stock but in cm 13 both clicking of quick setting tile icon and down arrow *enables* and expands the tile. In other roms, clicking wifi icon toggles it and arrow expands it.
Try this. Open settings>wifi and make sure it's off from there. Now pull down notification panel, and again pull down to open quick settings (qs) panel. Check wifi has a slant line going over it. That indicates its off. Now click on wifi icon (not the 'Wi-Fi' text with the arrow). Does the tile expand and shown as turned on? If yes then its normal behavior. It turns on wifi and expands the view to show wifi networks. In other roms, it just turns on wifi and clicking bottom text expands it.
And if you can bother , try this-
Make sure that settings>wifi shows its turned off.
if your rooted then install catlog app from playstore and run it. If you are not rooted then you can connect your phone to PC with usb debugging on and use the following command-
Code:
adb logcat
If wifi is still on in background and sanning then you can see lots of line referring to wpa_supplicant coming in continuously. This is the best way to tell.
The reason I am tellling you to confirm it is because it's rare. Custom roms are reporting wifi was on in battery page even when it was off (logcat method confirms this).

Go to your location settings, hit the 3 dot menu button and select scanning. See if Wi-Fi scanning is selected. If so, this will allow the system to use Wi-Fi scanning to help fix your location and will keep Wi-Fi turned on.

Solved.. It was strange but I did it. See OP:

Where is Wifi Calling on Oreo beta?

I've upgraded my phone from 7.1.1 to Oreo beta - where's the option to enable/disable Wifi calling gone??

I've found it. Even Nokia didn't seem to know.
Open the phone app, click the three dots in the top corner, settings, calls, wifi calling.
Jeez.
However, battery life appears to be significantly better in Oreo.

ok, enable wifi calling done, but on top of status bar did not shown phone-wifi icon, does it matter?
so, can not confirm wifi calling work or not without its icon.
btw, there is phone-lte icon on it.

Any way to disable wake screen for notifications?

I tried to enable from Custom restrictions "Don't turn on the screen" and "Don't wake for notifications" with no luck. Is this a bug or bad user?

Always nice to answer to your own questions . Ambient display -> disable New Notifications. Oneplus logic escapes me.

Disable notifications
Go to the Settings app on android > Sound & Notifications > Scroll Down and App Notifications under notification section > Tap on App name installed on your mobile > Turn off the notification for the app.
Hope this helps!

Thanks, but I wanted just to disable wake screen for notifications not to disable notifications. Was a little confused initially since Oneplus seems to have two settings for the same thing. Got it in the end...

I have the same problem, but your solution does not work for me. As far as I can tell I have everything in ambient display turned off, but the screen still wakes up (to the normal lock screen). To confirm: THE TOGGLE SETTING "NEW NOTIFICATIONS" IS NOT HIGHLIGHTED, WHICH MEANS IT IS OFF. HOWEVER, THE SCREEN STILL WAKES UP.
In addition to that I even have "no notifications on lock screen" selected, which means my screen WAKES UP AND SHOWS NOTHING. It's distracting and useless at the same time. Very annoying.
I have now turned on "ambient display when I pick up the phone". This finally made my screen stop lighting up by itself, though of course now it does it when I pick it up. But at least it doesn't distract me while I'm working on my pc with my phone on the table.

I like my 7 Pro very much...and since this is my 2nd phone from OnePlus, I guess I am fairly satisfied with their implementation of Android Q. However, their way of setting up notifications is one of the worst things I have ever seen! It is convoluted, confusing, and counter intuitive.... not to mention just plain ridiculous. I hope they really get on the ball with the issue of notifications and their useless Horizon light very SOON because a cell phone without proper, accurate, notifications totally defeats the purpose of having a "portable" communications device.

I am having the same issue, how did you get the screen to stop waking up?

I'm trying to find a fix for this, as well. I have an app that wakes screen besides delivering the notification with/without sound. And now I realize I have another one. I also want to have those notifications on, but without waking my screen, just like most of the other apps' notifications. And this is not related to ambient display. In my case, I have stock Android, on a Pixel 3XL.
Thanks!

I need the same. Hate that anything other than myself can turn on the screen. Have had lots of annoying incidents due to this

Actually, there is a fix now, if you run Android 13. Under Apps->Special app access, there is a new option called 'Turn screen on'. I disallowed the annoying app and solved my issue.

I want to disable lock screen wake up for text messages and still no luck on S23. I went under special app access and disabled "Turn screen on" for the messages app (and others), and guess what? The screen still comes on when I get a text. HOLY ANNOYING.
You can turn Lock Screen Notifications completely off, but I dont want that. I want the audible notification to come in without turning the battery draining screen on, and when I tap the screen with my finger I want to see the app badge that tells me when app the notification came in on (signal, or messages, or fakebook, etc). If it's fakebook I may ignore it for example.

As I said in my post, I don't want to disable notifications, I want to disable lighting up the whole screen. The notification icon should show on the always on display without going full annoying brightness on the screen for 5 seconds. That's just dumb.

You might want to consider utilizing the Google Issue Tracker which is a tool used internally at Google to track bugs and feature requests during product development.
For Do Not Disturb - If you have the setting "Always show time and info" enabled (Settings > Display > Lock Screen > Always show time and info) your screen will display a dimly lit clock when the screen is locked, among some other status icons.
In the DND settings, if you check "Don't wake for notifications" and you get a new notification (text, ig, whatever the notification is), it will not show on the screen until you unlock the phone. It will just display that clock and you'll be unaware of the notification.
If you UNcheck "Don't wake for notifications", the lock screen with the large dimly lit clock will change to show the small icons for whatever the notification is.
If you do NOT have enabled the setting "Always show time and info" (Settings > Display > Lock Screen > Always show time and info), I imagine it would be the same behavior, except you would see a difference when you manually wake up (but don't unlock) your screen--you would either see that you got a text message or whatever the notification is, or you wouldn't until you fully unlock the screen.

Question Persistent Wi-Fi Call notification

Hello,
I have noticed that the Wi-Fi Calling notification does not go away even if I turn Wi-Fi Calling off. I have already put the notification to silent and reduced but it constantly sits there and annoys me. Does anyone know a trick how to get rid of it completely? The options for disabling it are greyed out and cannot be turned off. My S21 Ultra which had the same e-SIM, came from the same region, did not have that issue although the function was turned on 24/7.
The package which causes those notifications is com.sec.unifiedwfc.
EDIT: At the moment I have blocked the notifications using AutoNotification app from the store.

I did check it but could not find anything useful. The one thing that could have helped, notification snooze time change, has failed to apply even though I granted all permissions via ADB. The app suggested to use OneUI Tuner but it is not available on xda labs when I open the official link.

Sorry, I thought you were talking about the notification on the status bar

can you share a screenshot of what you are seeing? not fully understanding the issue here

Of course, here it is:

so... holding the notification to see the option to deliver quietly or turn off the notification isn't available?

It is just the carrier pushing for Wifi call. Tmobile does that.
What I do? I turn of wifi right when a call comes. The HD+ is much better without wifi.

If you put it to silent it will look as in the screenshot. Turning off is greyed out.
