notifications issues - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

hi, is there any app or settings through which i can achieve thr below requirement.
enable notification icons on status bar only. I don't want to see the notification (message)in the drop down notification are. just want the app icon in status bar and sound.
is there any settings available in Android??

is it possible after rooting the device??

Hold down on the notification you don't want to see then go into the settings and you'll see that you can MUTE or completely block the notification.
The thing you may be looking for is a notification blocker app.

My Jelly Bean dilemma

So I got my Jelly Bean OTA and start to use the phone normally (before I flashed the Google I/O build and used it in the waiting status for official one) and have discovered that Google has put me into dilemma which I didn't care about before. It is because of the new Interactive notification system in Jelly Bean. I like it so much as I can response to notifications much faster. However, I am also used to Notification toggles and have discovered that with Notification toggle I must sacrifice the interactive notification and vice versa as Notification toggle is always on the top of the notification list...Do any of you know about any solution to have both??? Thanks in advance...
Your only two options as far as I can see is 1) Wait for a (possible) workaround from the developer of the toggles or 2) root the device and install a custom rom which will have the toggles built in to the actual notification bar, not as a 'notification'
Edit: You can still expand other notifications with a two finger swipe down gesture, it just wont be open by default when you pull down the notification bar.

lockscreen notification for select apps

Is there a way I can choose which notification shows up on the lockscreen? Specifically I want to have only one app show notification on the lockscreen, but not others. In order to do that I have to disable notifications of all other apps. But I want other apps to show notification in the notification bar, just not on the lock screen. Any way to do this?

On nougat, theoretically yes. Go to settings -> notifications. Then click the settings gear at the top. Should give lock screen notification options of all, hide sensitive content, hide all.
I think you can hide all here, then go to the individual app you want to show, and change it to show for that specific app.
Never tried this myself. Ymmv.

Once I choose "don't show at all" under settings - notification, I cannot enable notification on the lockscreen for specific app. However doing the exact opposite might do the trick. Under settings - notification, I choose "show all contents", then for specific app, I can choose "don't show" on the lock screen. This is very tedious, but it might do what I want my phone to do...

Once you clicked don't show notification at all, click on a app or game that you want to display the notification in lockscreen.
Then click "On the lockscreen" then "show all notification content".
Hope this helps you.

Hide icons of running apps on the status bar?

Hide icons of running apps on the status bar? Is it possible to do this without rooting? I hate having to look at the spotify icon / whatsapp desktop and other apps icons on my status bar all the time, it looks so cluttered , I KNOW spotify it's running since the music is playing google, I'm not that stupid to know it's running in the background , if I want to look at my notifications, let's say I get an email, I'll slide down the notification bar , I don't need notifications being thrown at me all the time...

Does long pressing the notification in question not allow you to shut it off? Or am I misunderstanding your interpretation?
Press and hold the Settings icon Quick Settings for a while. You'll see a new section System UI Tuner, from. There you can turn on or off icon in the status bar area. You'll also now notice a wrench next to your settings icon in your quick setting area.
I hope this is what you're referring to.
You can also swipe right slowly and it will reveal a settings icon, tap there and turn off notification from just that app

If you do that you then silence all the notifications for that app , don't get me wrong I don't want to eliminate the notifications , I just want to eliminate the icons on the status bar .
Take a look at the picture I uploaded , see how the bar gets crowded with all those app icons from Spotify , the new York times apps etc ?
For what you're wanting, you'll need root.

Notification icons not disappearing from status bar once viewed - Pie

Unless I click the actual notification to open the app, they won't go away until I view the app and then swipe down the notification panel. When swiping down there isn't even a notification, just the icon in the status bar.
On Android Pie
Any ideas?

I have also had this problem, mainly with Hangouts. I'm using a ROM though so maybe thats it?
I'm locked unfortunately, so no. Seems to happen with every app for me.

How to define, what is shown on the lockscreen

Hi all,
I'm using the lockscreen notifications to get informed about new messages, traffic information,... without unlocking the phone. What I don't want to see on my lockscreen are persistent notifications like AdGuard or my network speed meter. In the notification settings I can only switch them on/off globally, so they will also disappear from the status bar (but that's exactly where I want to see e.g. my network speed).
I'm pretty sure, there was an option sometime in the past saying 'Hide notification on lockscreen'. But I cant find that anymore in Beta19 nor Beta20. How do you control what is shown on the lock screen? Is this option hidden somewhere? Or do you use a third party lockscreen app?
Edit: I learned now, that I have to have a lockscreen defined when i want to change the visibility on the lockscreen.... Anyway, any recommendations for a good third party app?
