Has anyone looked into removing the ongoing WiFi notification and adding back the WiFi toggle? Not sure how this was done on the S3 and Note 2, but I assume it's possible here as well.
wrong thread.

Give it some time, beans just finished the deodex which is the first step in getting a good rom going.

Do this, open the notification bar and long press the the ongoing wifi until App Info pops up then tapon force close. It will come back every time you reboot or if you connect to another wifi.

I'm looking for a permanent fix, but thanks. I guess it's a little early

It has been brought to my attention this fix does not stick through reboot or wifi cycle. I will mess around with the editor some more however I fear without modifying the framework it may not be possible to completely be rid of it. Moderator can lock the thread please.
have discovered how to remove the constant notification that wifi is off. You must be rooted (thanks to the devs who made that happen) and have SQLite Editor installed.
It is available from the Google Play Store for 2.99. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.sqleditor&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5zcGVlZHNvZnR3YXJlLnNxbGVkaXRvciJd
Open SQLite, allow root access and navigate down to "Settings storage". Click it then click "settings.db" then "secure". The last line (351 on my device) is entitled wifi_watchdog_on and the value is listed as 1. Click on this then click the pen in the upper center corner to edit the value. Change it to a 0 (zero) and click save. Back out of the app then pull down your notification shade. Long press on the *&#%$* wifi nag until "app info" is shown. Click it then select force close. It will give you the standard warning but don't worry about it.
After these steps are taken the nag will be gone! Hope it helps someone who is irritated like I was.
Thank you for this! Worked perfectly

Thanks!
Thank you very much!!
This worked, but once I turned wifi back on it came back once I disconnected. Anyway to make it permanent?
Doesn't stick for me, the nag comes back and the setting goes back to 1 after a reboot...
is there a way to do this for the blocking mode nag as well?

coming back on for me as well.
Can this be done with the FREE SQLite Manager app?

If you forcefully uninstall the WiFi nag app, will this prevent it from relaunching everytime you reboot or turn WiFi on?
The app info of the wifi nag said it was Android System

Well... When you long press on the wifi nag on your shade, then choose app info... it's a part of android system that you're stopping... don't know if uninstalling it is possible.
Hmm...I wonder if it's a part of the TouchWiz framework. Hopefully someone can make a hack for it which removes the Ongoing Notification, and also puts the WiFi toggle back in the Notifications Control Panel where it belongs.
You can put the WiFi icon and whatever else you want (I add a flashlight also) to the taskbar with the app "notification toggle" from the playstore.
I have used this temporarily on a few different phones while I was waiting on Custom ROMs to make their appearance.
It works perfectly.
This doesn't stick.

Thanks everyone. I have updated the op and will continue to explore some way to make this stick.
i dunno about the toggle, but the wifi notification is probably an edit in services.jar

under "Settings storage" then click "settings.db" then "secure". The last line is (125 wifi_on) not line (351 on my device) is entitled wifi_watchdog_on!
what am i doing wrong?
When I turn on my wifi, the 4G icon disappears for a couple seconds then returns so both are in the bar. It shows data is transferring over wifi only but the 4g icon remains. Just thought this was a little strange since last night only the wifi icon showed up... I have tried toggling data, wifi, rebooting the phone, and rebooting the phone with different combinations of connectivity enabled. Just wondering if anyone else has both if these icons present in the notification bar and if anyone has any idea as to how to remove the 4g icon while wifi is enabled. I would rather not turn data off while on wifi so I am able to transition from one to the other. Thanks in advance!

There was another thread on this recently, but mine does not do this. The only time 3G/4G will show while on WiFi is if I'm doing something that requires mobile data, such as sending or receiving MMS.
Thanks. I looked but didn't see it earlier... Found it now though. Thanks for the response

For anyone else reading this thread, it was mentioned in the other thread that disabling the "callerId" app will fix this.

cant find a setting in the app to turn it off, is it non removable bloat?
Removing the calleridname bullsh*t stopped it for me. Try that.

1) Go to Settings/More Tab/Application Manager
2) Swipe right to the ALL tab
3) Find "Caller Name ID" and click on it
4) Click on "Disable"
4G icon should disappear in a second or two from your notification bar. Worked for me!
power control toggle
I downloaded a power control app from the play store and now I just turn my mobile data completely off when I am at home running WiFi. You can do the same thing in the notification bar toggle menu, I just like having the widget on my main screen.
I removed the Caller ID app but I still have both the Wifi/4G icons sometimes. Sometimes the 4G icon will disappear, sometimes not, can't figure out the root cause of it.
EDIT: Apparently running the "Remove" option inside this app only hides it from your launcher. It was still listed in the Application Manager. Disabling it there fixed the problem. Thanks guys.

That did the trick... Turned off caller id and 4G icon went away
Did anyone find that a complete wipe fixed this? I was about to try that with my wife's phone, as there seems to be some lingering text messages going through issues.
I will try that callerID disable thing as well prior to the reformat.
Over the weekend I upgraded to Marshmallow, and more or less it is going well. However, yesterday this new icon showed up. Not sure if it is a system icon or an app icon. Thanks.

I'm running your Imperius kernel, and I can't seem to find where to turn it off in the normal settings screens. Googling T-Mobile and Volte shows where to turn it off on other phones, but those settings aren't there on mine. I'll reflash your kernel and see if that fixes it.

Open dialer, tap 3 dots at top, call settings and you'll see the toggle
Kernel is the cause of it showing. Happened on past firmwares too then went away but seems it's back again
I'm using the T-Mobile V30 and I can go into settings or the t-mobile app to activate the mobile hotspot but it's not an option to add a toggle to the pull down (notification panel) menu, does anyone else have this issue or know how to add it?
Yeah ... same here.
I think they are trying to push everyone to use the Tmo app
Yeah, no toggle here either but at least there is still the option to tether in the settings menu.
Ugh, that is so annoying. It was so nice to just hit the toggle. I can't wait for root.

Have you tried looking for a widget in the play store to handle this? You might have some luck there!

The T-mobile hotspot app does have a toggle widget but I was looking for something from the status bar menu. I actually like the floating bar that LG used to replace the 2nd screen and I would use it if you could put widgets into it (like the hostpot toggle). I think it would be so much more useful if there was a way to put widgets into the floating bar.

if it doesnt work for u go into the setting to add an app to the quick setting. after doing that select the hotspot app. is another step but is a good solution for a shortcut
it will end up looking like this

I hope someone from this discussion is still paying attention. I can't get this app to work for me. I got the hotspot toggle to be available, but it only turns off Wi-Fi, and doesn't enable my hotspot. I don't get what I'm missing.
Anyone find a way to do this through the adb shell? I tried: settings put secure sysui_qs_tiles "hotspot" but no luck.
I have the sprint (unlocked) lg v50 on pie and it also does not have mobile hotspot quick setting.
I have to goto settings>network>tether>hotspot.
So dumb
I also have a us cellular v30+ (unlocked) on pie and it does have hotspot quick setting as it should.
Please advise how to get rid of it. I don't want to see it or use this function. Is it possible to do this. I am attaching a pix. I have tried several things in WiFi settings and advanced settings to no avail.

I figured it out the fix.

I want to get rid of that as well. Help please.

Can someone actually reply to this thread with a set of steps? I am getting pretty frustrated by that icon... and it seems like Samsung attempts the VPN connection even though I disabled it and interferes with AdGuard's VPN or other VPNs.
So. Beside the fact that it is bulls**t, it still tries to do some magic.

I got irritated as well with this. I went into settings>apps>SecureWifi, scrolled down to the notifications options, and selected muted/hidden on lockscreen.
I haven't seen that damn icon since.

I have the same settings. But that hides it from the lockscreen only. The icon and notification is still in the notification bar and list when the phone is unlocked.
