I know apps you want running in the background consistently might need a permanent notification.
So I'm just wondering if it's possible to remove certain notification icons from the status bar? So that the permanent notifications from i.e. my real-time security app can still be running in the notification panel but it's not cluttering up the status bar next to my clock, stopping new notification icons from showing like emails or texts.

When there is an app running in the background it usually shows a small icon of the app in the notifications bar. Is there anyway to hide that?
In Launcherpro you can hide the notifications bar on the home screen. Which is ok, but I just want to hide certain apps to show they are running.
Is there any way to make the notification bar you pull down to put the notifications above the ongoing tasks?
I am seeing some different behavior as far as notifications go vs how my jellybean device worked and I want to know if this is normal on kitkat or if there is a setting I am missing.
If I get a notification from the calendar the calendar icon will show in the notification bar for a while then it will hide itself so if I pull down the bar it's there but the calendar icon will be gone from the notification bar. On my previous devices the calendar icon would stay visible until I cleared the notification.
This is annoying and I want to know if this is normal operation or not.

The status bar icon should not disappear until you clear the notification itself. Are you on stock?
Yes I have stock version 4.4.4.
Currently my status bar will show about 4-5 notification icons before it shows the "dot dot dot" icon meaning there are more notifications but no room to show them. When this happens there is still a ton of space left to show more icons. Unfortunately the icons that do display are usually persistent ones, so when I get notifications that I actually care about I'm unaware until I pull down the notification pane.
Is there any way to change this behavior so that emui continues to display new notification icons instead of hiding them?
No way to remedy this I guess - bummer, it's my only real complaint about this phone (EMUI I guess). Constantly have to be pulling my notifications panel down, otherwise I miss notifications because they don't all display in the notification bar.
Sorry if this has been asked, I searched but didn't find anything. I like to have my status bar nice and clean and just rather see my notifications on my lock screen or drop down menu.
Running Android 10 on a Pixel 3. I would still like to receive notifications but I would like my status bar just to show the time on the left side. I know you can silence notifications and hide them from the status bar but I still would like to get notifications in the same way other than seeing the icon on the status bar.
Thanks
