I recently installed package disabler pro. The installation had issues and required me to install SureLock Kiosk Lockdown to activate a knox license before PDP could verify it's own knox license. Something along the way disabled access to my notification shade. I am still able to see my notification bar and all the pending notifications and information displayed, but I cannot pull it down to view or interact with these notifications or the quick launch tiles. There was a setting in Surelock to disable the notification bar, this has been toggled off, and I have uninstalled surelock. I have also reinstalled/uninstalled it a few times trying to toggle various settings.
Any ideas as to what could be block access to my notification bar, or how to restore it? Are there any adb commands, etc? I have cleared the cache partition and restarted the phone multiple times.
Thanks!

Sounds like s kind of kiosk mode is still enabled.
You can try if flashing a complete stock firmware (with Odin on pc) helps.
If you can enter into settings, check notifications settings and that do not disturb is not enabled.
But maybe you have to do a factory reset. Backup everything before.

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.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
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?
It seem push notification does not work well with Mate 7... for instance... whatsapp web.. in order for it to read messages at all I need to push the power button constantly to wake it up from sleep..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-7/help/push-notification-data-screen-off-t2985489
I don't know if this has been solved but their is a option on mate 7 which allows you to toggle between notification push and how you handle it when screen is off.
Go into protected apps and enable it and make sure notification manager is set to allow.
i dont see notification manager in protected app.
it's in settings.
Under "privacy & security" you'll see Notification manager and Protected Apps.
From main settings i have only security option no privacy&security.Mine mate 7 is 09-european version.
I'd suggest taking a look at your settings again.
Under "Privacy & Security" section you have:
- Location Access
- Do not disturb
- Notification Manager
- Protected Apps
- Security
- Fingerprint ID
- Backup & Reset
Yes i was in restricted and notification options but there is no option to set notification manager to allow,notify or restrict options.Notification manager is not on the list of apps for which you can set this 3 options or notification manager is with some other name in the main list.

Is there a way to block selected notifications on lockscreen but still showing up in statusbar?
I'm using pin lock and want to have the music widget on the lock screen but when I enable the lockscreen notifications also Tasker is shown there.
The only option I have is to block Tasker completely which also prevents Tasker from showing up in the statusbar.
Its like everything or nothing.

Keep pressing on the notification.
A pop up will apear. Select your choice.
Yeh but its only possible to block an notification completely but I only want to disable it on lockscreen and have it still showing in the statusbar when the device is unlocked.

I know this is not exactly what you need but this could help a bit, go to settings, sound n noti, when device is locked, dont show notifications.
While my pixel is locked, I can pull down the notification bar and access my phone settings (wifi, data, Bluetooth, hotspot, etc.).
Is there a way to disable access to those settings on the lock screen? I don't want those settings accessible until my phone is unlocked.
I have cerberus app and there is an option to remove or lock the pull down menu. I believe you have to purchase this app nowadays.
Install and configure the option in the excellent PureNexus ROM.
What is the name of the app? Where can I find it?
The past few updates and now this "Lenovo Services" app is now constantly running. I've tried to force stop it; nope. I can't "mute" the notification.
Any of you even know what this app is? When did it get installed and for what purpose is it there?
Thanks.

I've been regularly updating (Xiaoxin Pad Pro / P11 Pro) but never encountered "Lenovo Services". I do have "Device Service" (package name com.lenovo.lsf.device) which wants to connect to AliCloud in Germany a couple of times per day. I don't allow it on my software firewall (currently NoRoot Firewall), so no notifications from there.

I just double-checked and it is indeed there. I will post a screenshot if that helps you. Furthermore, I'm unable to uninstall it or remove the notification that it is running.
I checked the app, and it has no permissions granted other than "draw over other apps" but nothing for storage or location or contacts.
I'm on a US device if that makes a difference. Someone here must have the same thing I would assume?
I do have the same service running on mine and unable to hide it from notifications.
Time to go play in the Registry...
At least there is a way to "hide it" see here: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo...ervices-is-Running/m-p/5083807?page=2#5447336
swipe down to see the "LenovoServices is running" notification and tap on it, it goes to the app settings page
Here you have 2 options
tap on Force Stop, it stops the notification but also the service itself (which is probably not a big problem, I've received an update, today, with this service killed). No notification in the status bar, no notification in the pull-down
Or
tap Notifications, DownloadService
there you see two main options, Alerting and Silent, it's on Alerting
switch to Silent and tap Minimise, notification gone from status bar but it's still in the pull-down, service still running

Good info. Thanks. Although still no explanation as to what it's doing or, how it got on there in the first place.
