Remove network indicator arrows - Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers

Hey,
since the Pie update i got these little network activity arrows. Unfortunately they grab alot of space in the status bar.
My question is, if someone knows how to remove them. Maybe trough build.prop editor or something?
Also i really would like to change that '4G' symbol to 'LTE' but i can't find a solution for that. If anyone can help me with i would appreciate!
PS: i know there are xposed modules that can change that, but don't want to use xposed because of performance and stability.
thanks and greetings from germany

I hope that they will remove it from the stable version bc there is not much space left from the notch already on the notification bar. And yeah there is no way to disable it on pie without root. If you have root access you can try substratum themes.

Yes i am rooted but substratum does also affect performance and stability. that's why i try to keep my phone free from substratum/xposed.
Im really hoping someone finds a build prop command or something cause i didnt find anything useful

Those arrows are the most infuriating thing from PIE. I can't understand why Xiaomi kept them, knowing that they (thankfully) removed them in Oreo making it different from AOSP.
Pls Xiaomi get rid of those arrows...

The changes made from Oreo to Pie are just.. weird!

If you guys think that it's taking up too much space in the status bar you can try putting display size to small ? it shrinks the icons among other things. I know this is not a hard fix but it's something at least.

I don't want the rest of the content to be that small! Plus, on restart, the dots appear again on status bar

Same problem here. I don't see except my battery percentage and the dot.
No wifi no network nothing at all.

Np at all just saying Thanks for sharing
Just a doubt: in your post the name of the file is "com.keypressure.disable_network_activity_indicato r.apk"
with a space between indicato and r Is it correct? To be honest renamed my file without space.
So, rename the file, moved, changed permission, reboot.
Nope, doesn't work on my PIE
Let's wait other feedback

The name and the method which you use is correct. I don't know why but i write the name correctly and in the post is wrong, it add the space.
Why for you no work , I don't know

Try to write in the adb command window this "adb shell cmd overlay enable --user 0 com.keypressure.disable_network_activity_indicator".
Remember to activate the debug option.

I just noticed that... after restart the phone, the apk file moved in system/app disappear.
Probably that's why doesn't work.
Maybe miss 1 step? Like write something in some setting?
Or some command by adb to enable the file?

Sounds weird to me that in your case it works without any problem,
also without that adb command, otherwise no mention it in your first guide post.
Nevermind, all good Let's wait other users and will see if doesn't work only to me.
Btw thanks again!

[Q] How to use "Restrict background data" WITHOUT notification ?

Hi,
I wish to permanently use the "Restrict background data" feature ( under settings->data usage ) on my JB rom, but the problem is that when I enable that feature, I always get a notification, asking me to "touch to remove" that feature...
I don't wish to do that, even by mistake! I want that notification GONE completely, but to retain the "restrict" feature...
I understand, it's possible to permanently disable notifications, by altering "Settings.apk" somehow - but I don't know what and where to change ( wish file inside that apk ).
I used "apktool" to unpack the apk, but again - which file should I change ? what value/line should I delete ?
My rom is VJ's AOKP v2.2, so "Settings.apk" file is from that rom's version.
Any help would be great :highfive::fingers-crossed:
EDIT:
Guess it has something to do with "DataUsageSummary.smali" (after unpacking the Settings apk -> smali\com\android\settings):
BUT WHAT SHOULD I CHANGE ?!
please reply

Something called the search function; it's really useful.
You can't just expect others to answer your questions promptly. As for your questions, that's part of the android system and if you want to modify it, go ahead. It's not a notification because you can't swipe it away; it's an ongoing thing. SO if you want to go on with that kind of attitude, you can try it yourself.

I really do appreciate your reply man - even though I googled xda from top to button.
( there are thread about modifying various stuff inside settings.apk / SystemUI.apk - but NON are about that "restriction notification" i'm talking about. )
I've seen this thread in the unread threads of XDA app and although I don't use that feature, I got curious to try it out. So I've quickly put together an Xposed module that removes the notification.
You have to install Xposed framework. Get it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
Also, install my module from the attachment, enable it and do a soft reboot in Xposed.
It works for me on my Galaxy R with CM10.1 and I assume it will work for you too, as the module doesn't change the Settings, but com.android.server.net.NetworkPolicyManagerService class. If you have any problems, post a logcat and /data/xposed/debug.log
Update: For a while now it's already available in Xposed modules repository: http://repo.xposed.info/module/org.adam77root.removerestrictednotification.

WOW thnx... but just a few moments before you posted your message I to fulfill that wish of mine... I SOLVED IT !
Although I admit - I DO NOT KNOW if I disabled all of the "restrict background" feature, but I DO managed to enable the "restrict backgound data" checkbox ( then press OK at the popup ) WITHOUT getting any notification at all !
HOW TO DISABLE NOTIFICATION ALERT FOR "RESTRICT BACKGROUND DATA" ( under settings-> data usage-> options )​( I tried that fix on JB 4.2.2 ( to be specific: AOKP VJ Jelly Bean v2.2), BUT I guess it works on all JB 4.2.2 )​1. copy "services.jar" from "/system/framework/services.jar" to your computer.
MAKE A SAFE COPY OF THIS FILE IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO YOU.
2. extract the jar file using Winrar or any compatible app.
3. using MultiTool decompile the "classes.dex" file as instructed by Multitool's thread.
4. open with any txt editor ( I used Notepad++ ) the file "NetworkPolicyManagerService.smali" under "decompiled\classout\com\android\server\net\" ( which is a sub-folder of Mulitool's folder that you've previously extracted )
5. A . search for:
Code:
invoke-interface/range {v0 .. v6}, Landroid/app/INotificationManager;->enqueueNotificationWithTag(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;ILandroid/app/Notification;[II)V
delete completely that line or add "# " in the start of that line ( which is what I did ) so that line looks like that:
Code:
# invoke-interface/range {v0 .. v6}, Landroid/app/INotificationManager;->enqueueNotificationWithTag(Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;ILandroid/app/Notification;[II)V
B. search for:
Code:
invoke-virtual {v0, p1}, Ljava/util/HashSet;->add(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z
add "# " in the start of that line ( which is what I did ) or delete completely that line
6. SAVE that smali file that you've just edited.
7. using Multitool, recompile the classes.dex file.
if everything went good, you'll have classes.dex file under MultiTool's sub-folder named "output"
8. using Winrar, open "services.jar", replace the current "classes.dex" with the recompiled one that you've made.
9. copy the remade "services.jar" to your device(using adb etc ):
Code:
adb push "services.jar" /system/framework/services.jar
10. chmod "services.jar" to "-rw-r--r--", meaning you need to:
Code:
adb shell chmod 644 /system/framework/services.jar
11. restart your device, and It should rebuilt your dalvik cache.
ONLY if it didn't, I guess you should delete "/data/dalvik-cache/[email protected]@[email protected]" file, reboot again so your OS will create that dalvik-cache file.
I'll be happy to know if anyone can verify that indeed my fix just remove his/her notification, but retain the ability to disable background data. THANKS !
Sorry I doubted you. You are a genius!
Many thanks!!
Adam77Root, thank you so much for that module! I can confirm it working on my Galaxy Note 2. That notification was unbelievably annoying.
gps3dx, thank you too for this thread and your fix. While I didn't try it because I already have Xposed framework installed and I'd rather use the less invasive approach, I am still grateful for your seeing a problem, addressing it, and proactively doing something about it. My respects to you. I searched around quite a bit and came across many other forums on different sites where people had this same problem unanswered. I hope they find their way to this thread.
To the above poster who jumped down the OP's throat for bumping this topic 4 days after it went unanswered, obviously you didn't do any search on this topic yourself. I did. And until this thread, I found nothing really useful. And lo-and-behold, someone was kind enough to actually do something useful instead of pointlessly sitting there and criticizing. The squeaky wheel gets the grease. Rudely telling someone to 'check their attitude and search' is not helpful- it's just rude and pointless. Just FYI.

mybe it is because you run JB 4.1.2 not 4.2.2 like I do, plus mybe you're running some custom framework ( it is not AOKP as I suspect from you sig )

this was working fine on my aokp jb mr1 Milestone 2, but stopped working when i installed the nigthly nightly (jb-mr1)2013-08-21 (wich fixes my camera issues and soe other stuff)
is there anything i can try myself to fix this or is it just incopatible with that nightly? (its still 4.2)
I'm using Lenovo phone, 4.2.1 Version. In "services.jar" I see only folder "META-INF" and file "MANIFEST.MF". I tried to rename the file to classes.dex then using MultiTool decompile but I receive: "Unexpected top-level exception:java.lang.RuntimeException:bad magic value...etc"
So what's wrong, where to find classes.dex? Someone?
new edit: Thanks a lot for all the replies, also Xposed framework+module didn't work.

I'm almost certain I don't have the original files anymore. Since it's pretty simple, you can either decompile the apk or check Android source of the class I mentioned in the post you quoted. Only one function is replaced with returning null.
Edit: Just checked, the function is enqueueRestrictedNotification.

rooting?
do i have to root my phone to do this? will the module work without rooting? i'm new to playing with codes on my phone but I have done a lot of work with linux before so i can understand the process, i've just never rooted my phone before. i'd really like to get rid of this notification and the "usb connectivity" app's notification: internal storage &SD card- internal storage &SD card connected to PC. I mean, do i really need a notification to tell me that my phone is connected to my PC?
that last request isn't as important, at least if i accidentally click on that i'm not turning on background data use!

[MOD][XPOSED] NFC Icon Remover [HTC One/One X]

NFC Icon Remover
**You can now get NFC Icon Remover on the Xposed Framework's Download tab. In this way, if I update it, you will get update notice via Xposed framework. However, I will still post the most updated file here once available! **
I just wrote this little App for my own use to remove the ugly (IMHO) NFC icon. With the power of XPosed framework, there are no need to modify the NFC.apk and the Icon is complete GONE.
For those you may not know, the NFC icon appears on HTC One and One X (after Android 2.2 update). This take out the precious space of status bar while looking really ugly.
Please be noted to use this mod, you need XPosed framework by rovo89. You could get the Framework at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
This App has no icon of it's own. Just side load attached NFCIconRemover.apk and enable it in the Xposed Installer then reboot. You will notice the NFC icon will be gone after reboot.
Since this is my first Android app (Actually my last time writing any SW is 20 years ago! Haha!) so feel free to risk your phone by installing this. I am NOT responsible if it anything went wrong after install this mod.
I had only test this on my HTC One X (international version) with MaximusHD 21.1.0 (a very good custom ROM). Please feel free to feedback on this thread and I will try to resolve as much as I could.
If you find this useful, it would be appreciated to push the "Thank" button!
Great thanks go to rovo89 for this fabulous framework!!!
When I try to install from within xposed framework, I get the following error message:
Package name is incorrect (downloaded: com.lssong.nfciconremover, expected: NFCIconRemover)
Any idea?
edit: Just noticed that manual installation of the .apk works. So more or less a non-issue, but maybe worth solving anyway.

If you want the NFC icon back, just disable this module in XPosed frameworks and reboot. The NFC icon will be back. (uninstalling the module then reboot will do the same trick)

Since my One X doesn't have 4.3 yet, so I cannot test myself. However, as long as Xposed framework works and the NFC process is named "com.android.nfc" then it *should* work.
Feel free to install it and post your result here! It won't hurt anything and if it doesn't work, just remove it.
If it doesn't work, could you please let me know your NFC's process name so I could add it.

Sorry, LgNFC.apk is the name of the apk file... Can you try to get the "process name" which looks like com.android.nfc? (I guess LG's might look like com.lge.nfcaddon ...)
If you don't know how to get a process name, try to get Android Tuner free. In that app you can see all the process name!
From the information on XDA, it seems LG had their own implementation of NFC and lot of things are changed under-hook. I had look up into the BaskSamli people provide and pull the com.lge.nfcaddon. Not sure if it's correct and even if it's correct, will it work or not.
Anyway, you can try the attached apk and check yourself! If it works, I will post it on the XPosed framework's download page

You can also remove it by executing the following commands in ADB shell:
Code:
pm block com.sony.smallapp.app.widget
pm block com.sony.smallapp.launcher

You can also remove it by executing the following commands in ADB shell:
Code:
pm block com.sony.smallapp.app.widget
pm block com.sony.smallapp.launcher

If you got Titanium Backup just delete/freeze every app beginning with "SmallApp...", reboot, done. Works for both KK and Lollipop.
No chance to remove it without root though. Why not root with locked bootloader? I see no disadvantages in that.

[Guide][MOD]Headset Notifier for Xperia Marshmallow

Hello everyone,
I want to share my Headset Notifier for any Xperia running on stock MM roms
It shows a notification when your headphone is plugged in.
*Actually this headphone notifier is modded Unsupported Headset Notifier.apk, because Sony disabled the notification when you plug your headphones.
*It should be working on any Xperia MM rom.
Okay, if you want to find the apk, check the attachment of this post and jump to Step 5.
If you want to try to mod it by yourself, here's the guide below:
Here's what we need:
-Notepad++
-Apktool (Version that support Android 6.0 Roms, I use Advanced ApkTool 2.1.1 to work.)
Steps:
1. Decompile your UnsupportedHeadset.apk
2. Go to res/values/ and open bools.xml with notepad++
3. Edit This Line(Change the red one):
<bool name="show_headset_plugin_icon_to_notification">false</bool>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
to:
<bool name="show_headset_plugin_icon_to_notification">true</bool>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4. Save file and recompile and sign it. Done!
5. Install as normal apk or move to system/app/UnsupportedHeadsetNotifier/,and set permission to rw-r-r and then reboot.
*Maybe this mod needs Superuser mod (Patched Services.jar).
Edit:I added Flashable Zip below, flash it in your custom recovery.
Tested on:
-My Xperia Z3 with eXistenZ MM Rom - 23.5.A.1.203
Great find. Thanks for sharing this. Working fine...
what about if i want to add headset icon to the status bar when headset connected ? if you know the steps share with us please.thanks for this mod.

I changed "version code" from "23" to "24" in this apk, maybe that's why you cannot install, try it and tell me if it works...

Don't worry!
I figured it out! How about change the package id?
I think it will not conflict with the original one!
Could install as a separate app, not cover.
Edit: .....But Hmm... after I wrote this post a few minutes, I found a question,
because you installed as a separated one.
It will have two (may conflict the notification showing)...
One makes it show(The one you installed)
And another one will block it down(The System one)
So report me if it shows the notification when you plug in,
If it cause conflict that makes it doesn't shows the notification, I will remove it, because that's useless and bad.
Edit 2: Or if it doesn't work because of conflict, you can try to disable UnsupportedHeadset Notifier in settings and reboot.

Find a remove tool for no root device, to remove it.
Try this method to remove the system one?
https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/
Re-Enable it and clear data , cache first and than remove it.

It's says, "The request contains an invalid API key!". I tried on my phone actually.
P.S. : maybe I need to try on desktop.

I just can say:......It doesn't support this system
Tried another Sony device (rooted), even I removed the original apk and install the modified one, still not showing the notification.....
Tested on my old Z1C 5.1.1 Stock based custom rom with modded apk for 5.1.1 LP
Can u change the text notification?
Can u give me a guide to change notification text from "headset pluged in, unplug them to get speaker sound" to another text? Like "beats sound enabled" or etc?
Cause i can change the headset icon png, but cant change the text one.
