Let's kill the "Mobile data is turned off" notification!! - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods

Hi Fellow ATT S7E Owners,
Some of us have chosen to stay Stock on this phone. My primary reason is not tripping Knox and using Samsung Pay. I have been trying to fix most issues or workarounds:
1. AdBlocking
2. Mobile Data toggle
3. Package Disabler to turn down the bloat
But for us ATT users, there is this annoying continuous notification that pops when we turn off data for the first time, after a reboot, EVER IF, we have WiFi on ! It goes, "Mobile data is turned off."
Googled and researched ways of getting rid of this annoying message. Wondering if any of you had success with it? Getting all of us to talk about it to see if there is a solution, thank you!

There is very simple solution . Turn your data on. If you worry that you get overages turn off some background data for apps. When you on WiFi your mobile data is not in use.

For all the hype about having control over your notifications, not being able to change this one is super annoying. I'm also guessing AT&T is trying to get us to us as much data as possible so they change charge us more.

It shouldn't have to be this way, if I don't want data on, don't you agree? Why have needless signal processing or searching when I don't need something? ?

Tell me about it bud! Wish we had a way to slay it... For people wondering what this is, I'm attaching a screen shot...

The only way to get rid of it for now which is not very fun btw, Swipe right on the notification until you see the gear on the left and tap the gear. After that tap "phone" with the green icon next to the word "phone" and then tap "force stop".
So far that's the only way to get rid of it.

Thanks, but couldn't that endanger us getting a phone call, necessarily 100% of the time?

any news ? any way to disable it permanently ?

Interesting. I've never seen this on my S7E & I have mobile data permanently off.

Is it solved yet???

No Sir it was never solved and I moved on to the S8+.
The Theme I was using was called, "Red Strokes" I believe with custom icons and a wallpaper.
Hope someone cracks this!

Galaxy s9, Android 8.0.0 here. Following worked for me, check if it works for you:
1. Go to Settings
2. Go to Developer Options
3. Look for "Keep Mobile data turned on". Uncheck that.
And hopefully, voila...
EDIT:
This method does not work anymore...

1. Settings
2. Apps
3. Select Options, then Show System Apps
4. Locate "Phone" (Maybe there will be 3)
5. Select every "Phone" App that you find and select "Force to Stop"
and the message dissapers.
(If you restart the phone you will need to do this again).

[Q]

I have agalaxy s2 and have the GPRS pack enabled from Vodafone.
Every 2 minutes my phone flashes with a message about the usage of gprs data and how much i have left. This causes screen to come on and phone to vibrate. This message is similar to the balance messages sent by network after each call (not an sms, just message with OK button)
Any option to disable these messages. Everyone i know if being annoyed with this.
Vodafone India tells me they dont know how these messages can be stopped.
Is there an app or something that can block these ?
This is happening because you might have installed Juice Defender or similar software that switches off your 3G/Edge (data) connection when your screen is turned off. There are 2 options for you to try:
1. Ensure that your data connection is always ON even after you turn off the screen. OR
2. If you are rooted, try this app: Prepay Widget
https://market.android.com/details?...EsImZhaHJib3QuYXBwcy51c3NkLndpZGdldC5saXRlIl0.
It might work even if you are not rooted. Give it a try.

Hi I would like to see a solution for this too. Not that I get those messages now and then, but whenever sending an sms I get a box like that telling I have been changed 0.00 rs which is actually annoying. I will try the app, however there any other way than rooting to stop the pop up?
@OP u got sense 3.0 UI in GS2?
got a reply from Vodafone email support that it cant be turned off.
wonder if there is an app that that block these messages.
I've turned off battery apps like Juice defender so i dont get many notifications
A tech rep saying it can't be done is a worthless response.
At the very least you could investigate options like:
Removing the process via Root Explorer (or similar app)
Freeze whatever the app or process is that is doing this in Titanium Backup.
Flashing to a stock (non-branded) firmware that doesn't include this crap.
Flashing to a custom firmware that doesn't include this crap
Its not a installed app that is doing this ! The service provider sends a flash message with the usage details.
Isnt there any apps that can block these. I'm sure it will be very popular with Vodafone users if someone makes one.
There should be some kind of MOD to push the pop up message mentioned by the OP in the first post to the notification bar at least.

[Q] Default data toggle widget, disable "Allow data traffic?" message

Hi,
I like the default data toggle widget and I use it a lot. But there is a problem - when I enable the network data, there appear a big message - "Allow data traffic? .....".
It annoys me, as I see it at least 5 times per day. Is there any way to disable it ? I am even ready to root the device for that
P.S. Yep, I know that there are other alternatives on the market but this is the last way I would count on.
Thank you in advance.

If I'm correct, the message isn't from the widget, but from the native android. It's there to warn user that enabling will cost you money.
I don't think you can disable that unless (not sure yet) you touch something in the system (of course, rooted for that).
well I wish we could! It's driving me insane, having to click the damn thing everytime. I KNOW it's going to cost me money to use teh data connection, I have an internet plan thank you very much.
That and the "Oh noez you switched data off!" notification on statusbar are annoying the hell out of me.
So, I rooted the device. Can anyone give me a hint how to remove this message ?

I am not sure about this, I am just asking. May be someone knows.
Maybe just assuming that with root access one can alter a variety of things in the OS. But yes that message is hella annoying and really should be shown only the first time.
I don't see other phones do this and my old phone either so there must be a way...

If you are just looking at removing at msg saying the data is disabled, just pull the notification bar and click on the "Clear" button.

Try Widgetsoid. You can create your own widget that one give that dialog. And loads of other handy ones, like batt/cpu info, flashlight, screen-on lock etc.
Well, I realized that is more interesting to write my own data toggle widget. Mobile data and WiFi already works, with no warnings

Most annoying for me is the GPS warning one Never had it before on my Desire.
Even when using a Sony Smarttag to automate the turning on of the GPS you still get the warning dialogue. Annoying as hell.
Those warnings annoy me too! I wish I could get rid of them... And they do pose a problem if I want to automate tasks, what were Sony thinking of???
They should add an option "Don't remember again" when that message appears.
It's ok to advice you the first time you turn on Data, but is necesary to say the same thing five times a day?
If you add to your phone the notification toggles, the message will not appear if you turn on/off data from there. (With 2011 Xperia was so)
I can understand why someone would turn off data, but why turn off GPS? As long as you don't have an app open that actually uses GPS, it doesn't do anything.
I personally NEVER turn off GPS, Data, NFC, ... The only switcher I ever use is WiFi.
If your rooted you can freeze certain apps...I found you can disable the unsupported headphones notification by freezing the following app:
com.sonyericsson.unsupportedheadsetnotifier
Theres probably one on there that causes the notifications for 3G data toggle, but I've not found it so far yet.
And yes, I do agree that the notifications are a tad annoying!
I've added a small application widget to android market. It allows to switch on/off network data without any notifications. Please help me test it

Does it still ask even when youre using the NFC tags?
Cause they just updated the NFC app with adding on Data traffic and stuff. anyone tried? and i just ordered NFC tags on ebay. :S

Just tried it and you do not get a message for turning data on.
Enabling GPS still gives a message. This annoys the hell out of me because their advert for smart tags clearly shows this as a use case.
[shameless plug]
If you find you need more tags, or your want some cheap ones you can stick to things (including ones designed to be stuck to metal), just buy blank ones (about 60p each) and use my new app for turning them into Xperia SmartTags

[/shameless plug]
So, anyone ?
I've added few new features to my app. It's free and add free.
Please leave some feedback.

[Q] No internet connection while lock-screen is locked

Hey there,
I'm on a bit of a language barrier here, so bare with me if you will.
I've activated GoLocker and GoLauncher for about a month now and since both tools are activated I don't get an internet connection while I'm on the lock-screen. If I unlock my phone the little "3G" or "Edge" symbol appear in the status-bar and everything works fine. This little inconvenience bothers me, for multiple reasons. If I forget about my phone for a few hours and I unlock it, I get WhatsApp messages from 2 hours ago, which kinda sucks, considering the literality of "Instant Messaging". Same problem with Skype, you get where I'm going with this.
Deactivating GoLocker doesn't make any difference. Although the connection comes back before I enter my code which unlocks the screen. So basically once I press the Lock button on the side of my device, the connection returns.
My brother who regularly posts in the custom ROM section directed me here to ask you guys for help.
Here's some data:
I'm on a Galaxy Note II (GT-N7100)
I'm on Android 4.1.2
I can't do a software update because the phone tells me it has been changed. My brother worked some magic about half a year ago. He switched the internal and the SD-card storage somehow and fooled around with the firmware a bit.
It's kinda bothering me, so of one or more of you could help me out, It'd be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
No need for new Rom
just go to Wifi setting and make it always on (do not sleep) ^_^

I'm not talking about WIFI, I'm mainly talking about the mobile connection. (3G, etc...) Although WIFI isn't working either while on Lockscreen.
I've got popup notifications activated in WhatsApp and I want the pop-ups to show up even while the phone is locked. It worked fine until I installed GoLocker and GoLauncher. Maybe some other app triggered the problem or I messed up something in the settings, I can't really tell.
Still haven't figured this out. Sorry for the bump but this issue is just mind boggling to me.

Yeah, so I let the system beat me and finally gave up and uninstalled GoLocker, as well as all the other software from the developers (GoLauncher, all the widgets, etc.) and it works fine now with the standard lockscreen. Still sucks, though since I created my entire theme for GoLocker and GoLauncher as well as dozens of icons myself and really liked the look.
So if anybody is experiencing the same problem, just get rid of the GoSoftware and everything will work fine again.
Thanks for all the help, by the way.
Pesky "Go" devs. Ever since I seen their launcher I know they were bogus. Go apps cause so many problems its not even worth using. Glad you found out your problem.

How to stop phone from asking location consent?

So every time I turn on and off the GPS, I keep getting 2 location consent pop ups that I have to agree to. Is there a way to agree to it once and never have the popup again?

You can try this xposed module that disables the location consent all together. I haven't tried it myself on this phone but it worked for me on the S4

I have the same issue with having to give consent when I turn mobile data on/off. I can't stand it, if I want to turn data on/off from the lockscreen I have to unlock the phone and click ok.

I installed it and it has only taken off one of the two consent dialogs. So it's better than it was, but still not to gone as far as I can see
I noticed that if I refused to click on anything in the settings app when the consent came up it would keep coming up. After hitting anything in the settings app fixed it. Not asking for consent when turning on and off data.
BTW I discovered when I first got my Note 3 was allowing apps and Google to use networks for location discovery would drain the battery a lot. Just leave it to GPS if you need location info. Sounds strange but it works. I found GPS just for a General location does not use much battery. WiFi actually takes more juice. Seems to be the same on this phone also.

When I first started to use the G3 the phone would it would bring up a screen regard to the location settings. I am sorry I do not remember what it looked alike exactly. I just remember I would just hit the Home button and go back to whatever I was going. I eventually went to the Settings/General/Location screen and set my prefences there. After doing this I never got a screen/popup asking about location. It never asked me about location when turning off data. I did not try turning off data before adjusting the location settings.
Hope that helps.

[Q] Wifi Calling Keeps Showing Up In Quick Settings

Normally I only have 5 Quick Settings icons enabled (Quick Memo, Wifi, Sound Profile, Data, and Bluetooth), however every time I reboot my phone, the Wifi Calling icon re-enables itself and pushes itself in between the Data and Bluetooth toggles, pushing Bluetooth off of the screen. I realize that it's easy to just go back into the 'Quick Settings' settings and un-tick Wifi Calling again, but it gets really annoying when I reboot multiple times a day. Does anyone know of a more permanent solution besides just un-ticking the box every time I reboot? If it helps, I am using the Gold edition G3 from Sprint (obviously) and I'm rooted. This 'problem' has been going on since I got the phone.
I have the exact same issue, but I have my WiFi Calling quick setting button enabled. Normally I have Bluetooth in the fifth and right most spot, but WiFi Calling always forces it's way back to that spot upon a reboot, pushing BT to the next page.
In the Edit menu, they show correctly but they are actually flipped, so I just move one of them then move it right back.
Not a huge problem, it's just a weird little glitch I've never seen before on any other device.
I was just about to post about the same situation (wifi callling always showing in quick settings).
Is there a fix to this. It is getting annoying because I never use wifi calling yet it always shows up in quick settings even though I always uncheck it the quick settings options
