Remove NFC icon in status bar - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

How can I remove the NFC icon from the notification/status bar while NFC is on?
I tried renaming the .PNG to .BAK and even replaced the .PNG with a transparent and none of them worked. I'm running stock rom
Thanks in advance

+1 for me.
Did you figure it out? I see your post is kind of old.

I'm sorry, but there is a NFC icon when its on? Screenshot, I have not seen it!

The N with the blue waves at the bottom.

That's not normal.
Either its coming from your rom or from a nfc app you have.
But a stock phone won't do that.

At&t's doesn't. I noticed he has a 747m. Maybe the ones in Canada have that icon?

Yep I always have my nfc on. I have no such notification. It has gotta be annoying though.

No posts for a while but just to update;
I have a I9300 stock international, purchased in the UK and do NOT have the NFC icon.
I also have a I9305 again UK version which DOES have the icon.
Both have been rooted and have custom roms yet the I9305 still has the icon.
Anyone found a solution yet?

This can be edited in the feature.xml file (located in "/system/csc/feature.xml") under the NFC the Statusbaricontype should be changed from ATT to none.

in canadian rom it is others.xml

Extract/unzip the apk and in the resources folder it'll probably be in one of the drawable folders.

Scrolling toggles in the notification pull down

Stop me if Im wrong but before the latest update the toggles in the notification pull down never scrolled to the left? Also do we have the ability to add or remove toggles from the notification bar? I'll like to get rid of some useless ones like "power savings" and "all share" and add airplane mode.

I don't believe there is a way to change them on stock. A dev could probably change them on a custom Rom or a mod.

I don't have scrolling toggles. I thought I did but maybe that was on my S3 (where I do have scrolling toggles) how do I add them to the Note II ?

Did you only flash the modem/firmware and not the Rom itself?

Mine scroll back to the left as well if I have gone to the right. I'm still stock and not rooted.

oh no I am using the full ROM. Ljc deodex rooted
I thought I did have the extra toggles and when i flashed a transparency status bar zip last night the extra toggles came back
Odd

Note 2 problem

For some reason when I detach my s pen, the s pen icon and page buddy aren't showing up. It's making the sound and vibration but no icon or page buddy even though it's turned on. Secondly, does anyone have blocking mode icon in your scrollable settings in your notification bar? I thought mine was there but maybe I'm mistaken.. Anyone know why my s pen/page buddy isn't showing up? For $700 I should not be having this problem.

there's a setting for that option in the settings menu did you turn it off?
Interesting... I'm running nova launcher.. I switched back to touch wiz and it worked.. Now I'm back to nova and the icon is showing up when I pull it out. So I guess it's a nova launcher problem?

As far as I can tell those are TW home screen options. I use apex and don't have them either. Blocking mode is there on mine also

What the hell? You have blocking mode at your scrollable settings at the top? I thought I did last night, then I used it for the first time and now it just see it in my normal settings..

It should be between mobile data and power saving. What ROM are you on? Are you using the 15 toggle mod?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium
I don't have the mobile data one either. No rom.. I'm stock with nova launcher prime. I only find mobile data and blocking mode in my full settings. I remember having mobile data on my scrollable settings on my s3 but not on here.. Wtf is going on?

I'm so pissed right now! I'm missing 2 toggle settings on my 3 day old phone. What the F!? Not only that but every time I restart my phone my keyboard goes off SwiftKey and back to Samsung keyboard

I just talked to another guy who has the att version and he does not have the mobile data or blocking mode toggle either. What's going on here? I'm trying to find out if I have a defected device or not

I do not have either of those in my pull down either. Mine totals 10.
Yeah man I have 10 too. Okay I feel better now.. I thought it was just me.

10 toggles here too. Don't need or want more.
The page buddy is touchwiz launcher specific. Your device isn't defective.

Err0xx is correct. I have Nova Prime and it is disabled as well. In addition a few widgets are removed as well. I like tue calendar app because it shows exchange tasks as well. It was removed when I used Nova. I tried to levrage Novas resize feature. Back to the drawing board.

I know that this is an old thread, but I got here searching for the same problem with the spen icon, also using Nova Launcher, and as there didn't seem to be a solution listed here, I thought I would post what ended up working for me. After a little troubleshooting with Samsung, they recommending hovering over the screen with the spen, and pressing the spen button 4 or 5 times rapidly, which I did, and now it all works perfectly. Can't comment on the toggles, but for at least the spen bit, maybe I can help someone out.
Same here...your phone is fine....I'm on ATT stock UCAMA4 build.....g
for custom launcher (apex, nova, go, and so forth) use an app from market called s-pen helper and it'll set you through for pen stuff and also for headset stuff. good luck...

Keyboard is missing alternate symbols?

I love the alternate symbols that the Sammy keyboard has but somehow I've lost them? Does one the xda members know how to turn them back on.?

Did you change a mod to framework or anything? Or install an app recently and then noticed it disappeared? It's an xml edit that removes it.
