Is there a way to turn this pop up notification crap? - Sony Xperia XZ Premium Questions & Answers

everytime I get a message or notification wether its whatsapp or whatever, it pops up from above and im sick of this!
is there a way to simply disable this feature? please any one

I know exactly what your talking about - i hate it too. Lucky I found the solution. Do you know how to use ADB? install the easy ABD thing, got into developer mode, connect ur phone etc. Then just run this ADB command:
adb shell
settings put global heads_up_notifications_enabled 0
exit
Done! Fixed! Sorted!

adb shell
am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.android.settings/.Settings
then enable wifi and log in.

[Q] ADB & Linux

Anyone have adb working with linux? I've had zero luck hacking around with udev. Any assistance (udev rules, etc) appreciated! I do have adb-wireless working. My distro is Debian Sid.
probably not the best way, but i just threw it in the bin folder so i dont have to bother with it at all
I had no issues installing the sdk on lucid on my amd64. Never could get the sdk to install on xp(flp), so I had to install the one click root one line at a time from the *.bat
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
here for future reference, its a quick little script that will root your phone
http://www.mediafire.com/?hk59z8j5dve6tgf this works as long as your using bash shell cannot confirm for any others..
make sure to set click here as executable and make sure debugging is on your phone

This worked for me:
1. Enter to recovery
2. Plug your phone to a computer and start adb
3. Type the following commands:
adb devices
adb shell
cd data/system
su
rm *.key
And then reboot your system and you will not be asked for the pattern or password (my case)

Failed to connect

Kitkat on nexus 5
Recently, about a week, I will get a popup that says "failed to connect". I'm sure it is some app that I'm blocking from the Web, but the message has no identifier. So I don't know which app is trying to reach the Internet.
Is there a log or tool somewhere that would help identify which app is putting up that error message?
'adb logcat'
So, do you mean in a terminal app, I enter
adb logcat > something.txt
Do I need to install a logcat app or just a terminal app?
Thanks for helping.

on the device, you need to become root to be able to use 'logcat'. 'adb logcat > something.log' would be the way to do it from a computer.

depends on how you want to go from here. you know that you can use either a computer or the device itself. so, what would be the easier way to achieve this?
a) 'adb logcat >futurelogfile.txt' would be nice, since it will redirect all logcat output to a file in your computer, ready for analysis; after this is running, just reproduce/wait for the bad behaviour ( on the device, ofc)
b) open a terminal app on the device, become root, run 'logcat > /sdcard/badbehaviour.log', go back to your homescreen leaving logcat running in the background, and reproduce/wait for the bad behaviour;
your choice.
EDIT: i wanted to remember stuff i knew existed, and i stopped by again to drop this link, for further reading on 'adb logcat' usage, if anybody wants to.
Thank you very much. That's very helpful. I'm already rooted.

P40 Pro Demo .. remove apps via ADB.. No Mobile data ??

So i Got my hands on a P40 pro demo
normally i play around with Samsung
so Huawei is a new world for flashing
Couple of youtube videos late i used these adb commands to remove demo apps
adb shell cmd package uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.retaildemo
adb shell cmd package uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.experience.els.oversea
adb shell locksettings set-pin 8888
last one to so you can use fingerprint and face id. 8888 is password if none was on before
Used an app call Screen Timeout_v1.4.3 to stop the screen from dimming after 15 sec ( wont change in setting)
calls working fine
and I am able to goto settings - mobile network- mobile data- and turn on data ( but no data) APN IS CORRECT
slide down from top and icon ( mobile data) is greyed out .. touch it and i go back to home screen and stays greyed out
If i turn on Hotspot all devices can connect to hotspot and gain Internet access but no transfer bar of data above
all apps on device have no data at all
If anyone has a route they think could help
Please post
Thanks in advance
Any updates on how to remove retail demo on p40 pro?
have you managed to activate mobile data?
Thanks
I have the same problem. Can anyone solve mobile data?
Is there any improvement in this matter?
Is it not a setting in developer settings?
Cannot be enabled in developer settings

hi, I manage to do it uninstalling packages:
- com.huawei.secretregionalphone
- com.huawei.skytone
- com.huawei.hiskytone
I litterally tried to uninstall everything one package by one and finally this is the way!
I'm using mobile data on a p40 pro+ for days now
(edit, uninstall everything it's in special_cust or cust folder, read below, worked on every huawei I tried except a p40 pro)
Ciao , come posso farlo

hello, I also have the same problem .... I managed to eliminate the demo mode and restore the lock screen and fingerprint, the only big problem is mobile data! I removed the packages you indicated but nothing has changed… do you have any other suggestions to solve this problem? thanks a lot

Hi @vale220990, for my p40 pro + worked perfectly fine, do you have other packages in the folder /special_cust or /cust ?
I find out that all I removed was in there
I also tried on a p40 pro (no plus) without success up to now; instead works on the p40 lite and on the p30's

you're welcome.
Once your adb is connected, assuming you're in W10 and already has the adb tools, you can use the following command to print on the terminal all the packages installed on your phone:
Code:
adb shell "pm list packages -f"
You can then press ctrl+F to find for any package located in cust or special_cust folder.

hello filippo94it, thanks to your instructions, I was able to find 4 packages (I am attaching the photo) within cust and special_cust and I uninstalled them all. unfortunately the situation on mobile data has not changed…. I am attaching the photos of what is shown to me by the p40pro, were you also in this situation? Can you think of something else I could do or some other package to remove?
Thank you very much

Up to now I am not able to unlock the mobile data on a p40 pro that I am trying unfrtunately, I am at the same point. I am trying to uninstall everything one package by one, once again, but still didn't got the rigth answer.
It worked out perfectly on the other models that I tried.
But I will try something else soon and let you know if I find something!
