How to hide 'Forwarding all calls' persistent notification? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to hide persistent 'Forwarding all calls' notification? I set it intentionally and I *do* want to forward all my calls (background: I'm abroad now so I forwarded all my calls to VOIP number which then forwards all my calls to my local number - instead of paying 3USD/minute it's 15 cents for received call) however this result in permanent and undismissable notification 'forwarding all calls' from 'phone services'.
I appreciate that OS tries to keep me informed but displaying this once every reboot would be more than enough.
I fiddled with the notification settings, but those are tied to 'phone service' so hiding is not an option as I won't receive the call notifications.
I searched other options without any luck. I search for exposed module to hide this particular notification without any luck.
But I'm creating this topic hoping that maybe there is a way to hide it
I'm currently on Resurrection Remix 5.8.5 / android nougat 7.1.2 on OnePlus3

Incoming text alerts while on a call (ICS)

I'm not getting alerts while on a call. Is this a carrier feature? If so, I'm quite surprised; seems like it should be a hardware thing.
Basically, I've tried "Settings/Call/Additional Settings/Call waiting", but I get "Unexpected response from network", and can't change the value.
And I can't find any other relevant setting.
(Please, don't direct me towards "Settings/System....." as this doesn't exist on ICS)
Cheers

I think Handcent and SMS Pop-up have this option in their settings. I couldn't find it in Settings, so using one of those apps is probably your only option.

General question about "do not disturb" mode

Hello, I have a question here,
Got marshmallow running on my HTC One m8.
There is no silent mode anymore as in no sound and no vibration. What's there now is the do not disturb feature which basically does the same. But Accidentally I had it set to accept calls only from contacts.
What I can not find out now is, does this actually and actively block and deny any calls of unknown numbers without logging them or showing in any way that this person tried to call me, or does it just not show full screen call notification when I receive a call of unknown numbers?
Hope someone can shed a light on this.

Hi! Google replaced Do Not Disturb feature with Silent in Lollipop 5.0 and it was reported that they will bring Silent back at a later stage. Anyways, the Do Not Disturb feature in Android phones does not decline calls automatically like iPhone's Do Not Disturb, it only silents your phone and if you have selected 'Contacts Only' then it will only ring if someone from your contacts call you otherwise it will remain silent and notify you of the call or text (or whatever) and your screen will turn on while a call is being received.
HIT THANKS IF I HELPED YOU!
Okay thanks! Was worried I'll miss calls or something.
I tried it out in the meantime, asked a friend whose number I don't have to call me. I didn't ring loud regardless whether I set accept all calls, or contacts only. It rung silently but the call came through in both cases.

[Solved] Possible Bug? - Amber Alerts

So myself and several others at work are getting Amber alerts on our phones.. I'm the only one on the G5 and also the only one that is unable to clear the alert. I get the tones, loud as ever, despite my audio settings... But I get nothing as far as popups, notifications, etc. So... I have no way to clear them.
Anyone else with this issue? Any way to disable this completely? Thanks in advance to all who reply
EDIT: I resolved this issue (with the help of the comment below this post)... I use Textra as my primary messaging app, and use Nova to hide the stock messaging app. Textra does not display the alerts, but still allows the tones to generate. So, once I went into the stock app and changed the settings, all is fine now.
I have an OEM app on my phone called emergency alerts. I haven't received any yet, but does your phone have that app? When I open it and go to settings it gives me the options for Presidential Alerts, Extreme Alerts, Severe Alerts, AMBER Alerts and Test Alerts. You can turn each of them (except Presidential Alerts) off and on.

Android 11: Change notification settings of immutable notification provider

The problem presents itself as there are some notification providers (e.g. call services) that don't allow the user to disable specific notifications (in this case WiFi Calling).
Since receiving the official Android 11 on my Pixel 4 XL yesterday, there is a permanent notification telling me emergency calls are not working over WiFi Calling (thanks I know, get out of my sight).
Usually, notification providers can be turned off entirely or selected groups of notifications of a service can be turned off. Well, seems like you can't turn this one (or call services at all) off.
Is there anything one can do about this? I don't want to have this notification be there 24/7.
I am very open to hacky solutions, whatever it takes to get rid of unwanted permanent notifications. The optimal solution would be something that allows me to, in general, modify previously immutable notification settings.

Question Can't Turn Off Audible Wi-Fi Connection Notification

I don't know if this is an Android 12 issue or a Samsung S22+ issue. When I connect to a public Wi-Fi that requires me to "sign in", immediately after signing in, I get an audible notification alert. The notification shows up in the notification list as "Android System". But, I have Android System set to deliver notifications silently so something is amiss.
I don't get a notification when I re-connect to a public Wi-Fi I've used before and that does not require me to sign in.
I'd like to stop these audible notifications but can't find any setting that will accomplish what I want. My Samsung Note 9 does not have this issue.
Thanks for the help.

I found the solution and thought I would post it to help anyone else who might have this issue.
You have to swipe down on the visible notification and then long press on it. That will pop up a message allowing you to choose to receive this notification silently. It referenced "Network Manager" which I've not been able to find anywhere else in settings. I can confirm it works for all notifications of this type and not just the one Wi-Fi network that first prompted the notification.
