I would appreciate if anybody could give me a suggestion on how to get rid of this "Smartwatch 2 connected" notification tile which can't be dismissed. It's especially annoying now with Android 5 as it's always visible on the front screen. I have LG G3, but I don't think it relevant to phone model as the notification used to be visible on my Nexus 4 device too.
I can agree with you. Today I updated my paranoid android to paranoid with lollipop and it is annoying to always see it there. I have LG G2. I would be really greatfull if someone has an solution.
EDIT : Done. In notifications hold your finger on "Smartwatch 2 connected" and then will appear "i". Click there and check block. So easy in lollipop
On Android 4 for all app you can chek/uncheck the "show notification" on app paramater like you said or in app list, so not harder than android 5

@dersie, you're a star! Worked like a charm. Thank you very much, the annoying notification is finally gone.
Hello All,
And do you have any idea how can I hide only on the lockscreen? I want to see that the watch is connected or not, but only on statusbar.
Thanks in advance!

Is it any surprise I'm getting rid of my one x literally less than one week after buying...have been quite disappointed with the one x and 52 people read this without any response or confirm if they have a similar issue or not...it would have took 30-60 seconds!
Should have stuck to Samsung's...we'll unfortunately I've already sold my s2 so i guess it'll have to be the new beast s3...
Thanks to those a few that did help on a few things but generally the one x forum is a little cold for me compared to the Samsung just like the HTC phones!

The problem you posted is a little obscure, I've not seen it mentioned in any other threads, perhaps nobody has come across the same issue yet? If people don't know what the answer is then they won't post. The fact that it had so many views and not one response suggests that this is the case and it's not a case of the forum posters ignoring you.

Are you talking about the option Messages--->Menu--->Settings--->Notifications-->Notification Preview, untick the option but the message will still be shown if you pull down the status bar??
From testing on my phone, when you untick the option, and get a text message...I get no preview on the lock screen, the message icon on the status bar (with no preview) but the message is there when you pull down the status bar. To truly get rid of it (no message in the pull down status bar) is to disable Received Notifications but that's counter productive as you get no alerts!
I will test on my Xperia Arc (when I get home from work) and see if it does the same (I have a funny feeling that it will do the same)
I beleive it maybe a generic Andorid thing in terms of messages appering on the pull down status bar (perhaps the more experienced guys and clarify)

Hi thanks that's correct...i still see the preview when you don't with the same settings!

It's not that no one has anything to say, it's that no one actually cares about the preview - it's MY phone so I want to see the messages. Do you share your phone? If not, it's a complete non-issue IMO

So you still see the preview on your lockscreen? Or in the status bar? Because that setting doesn't change the status bar preview, just the lockscreen one. But if in the Personalize settings you have the lockscreen type set to notifications preview, it'll show regardless of the messaging settings.

Use GO SMS Pro or Pansi SMS from the Play Store. They're far better then the default SMS app anyway, you'll find many more actually useful options along with your privacy setting, and they also have individual settings for specific contacts, so you can choose only messages from a certain contact to not show in the status bar, if that matters. Works both while using the phone and in the lock screen. The individual settings feature is included with GO SMS and is a plugin for Pansi SMS.
And don't be so impatient. It's not that everyone who reads a thread has to have an answer and reply. Don't go by how many views the thread has got and wait a day or two. There have been so many threads I've read for which I don't have an answer. It's not that people don't care, they'll most certainly help if they know how or have experienced the same thing. Almost everything can be solved, being impatient won't help. Similarly, why would you want to be hasty and get rid of such an awesome phone, that too over such a tiny issue? IMO, phones should only be returned if there's a problem hardware-wise. Not because of app-related problems or operating system problems. There is almost always an (often better) alternative for these things (apps & ROMs).

Hello, problem will remain if he keeps the stock app.
I had two notifications using handcent SMS.
I had to disable the notification from the stock app and only activate handcent notifications and it works perfectly now.
But the stock app is always living by its own without notifying me anything.
You have different notifications : mails, SMS, facebook, twitter, etc.
Which ones are still remaining ? SMS ? Mail ?
And then you also have the reports from sending SMS, this should be also disabled
or you will have receive reports for each SMS you send ...
Hey guys just got an internation note 2. loving it so far!!
My favorite thing was this little grey half circle on the right edge of the phone. When you click it it gives you several quick shortcuts to common apps. Now it is missing though? Where did it go and how do I reactivate it, also what is it? Is it a samsung thing or just an android 4.1 feature. Any help in understanding this new feature would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

It is multiview option ( to open 2 apps at the same time). It is activated by pressing the back button for 2-3 seconds. You can drag 2 apps from the sidebar to the screen and have 2 running apps then.
It's the multiscreen dooda. Hold back arrow to make it come and go.
You can drag any of the shown apps to the top or bottom screen along with the another from the list. Maps and email at the same time for example.

What's really funny is that crApple is getting credit for the Heads Up notification style that's been in Android for over a year.
Sent from my VS985 4G
Wait for Android L for notifications on the lockscreen. Have tried the Android L dev preview on my Nexus 7 and it is a great feature to have.
For actionable notifications however, there is a headsup notification feature like the poster above me said. You can use an app called HeadsUp to achieve that affect. Another app called Floatifications displays the notifications in a bubble style thing like Facebook Messenger chat heads. You can give it a try if that is your sort of thing.
If you really want notifications on your lockscreen though, try adding a widget to your lockscreen which displays the current notification. Or try DashClock for a similar sort of effect.
nils will do the screen on and swipe to open actions

I use AcDisplay. It's customizable and looks damn sexay!!
Probably not what you're looking for but I'd definitely give this a try. I really love it. Plus it changes if you're commuting or between day and night, etc.

The Notifications in Android are usually actionable. The lock-screen ones are something to look forward in Android L. For any other notifications you can try this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.achep.headsup. These are technically baked into Android L but are available now in form of this third party application.
Try LockerPro

I see my girls phone does this but it's retarded cause you still need to unlock the phon3 an open the app lol

Huawei and other Chinese manufactures have a lot of preinstalled apps and system features. One of them is power management. This will kill any suspicious background process and so you will not be able to communicate with the watch.

This app is developed by me on a huawei just for this purpose - use brutal mode

Seem nice But can you provide the actionable notification like we have in Wear system ?
Ex : Calendar (Calengoo) have snooze option (Snz 5, Snz 10, Snz 30......) and we have not this option on all notification system for the SW2. Aquamail Extension offer the "Mark as read", it is nice but just for this app.

Sorry I dont understand the question. Are you refering to options on the notification? Every notification you read on the smartwatch has 2 options. One is to dismiss the notification from the device and smartwatch(delete basically), and one is to open it like you would have clicked it. For example your can open a Messenger notification and when you unlock the phone the app si already present on the screen, ready to type.
Also "mark as read" is present on the app and can be used for multiple smartwatch notifications.

If you link your app on XDA, you should provide a free version for XDA users.

Ex from Calengoo : Notification options are :
- Dismiss
- Open in phone
- Snooze 5min
- Snooze 10 min
- Snooze 15 min
(all snooze that you set in Calengoo app)
On Wear or on "pebble notification Center" I have all this option. On SW2 I have only the basic notification :
- Dismiss
- Open in phone.
For Aquamail for exemple, on standard app notification for SW2 I have also standard notification
- Dismiss
- Open in phone
but not a "mark as read"
so we can dismiss the Aquamail phone notification but the mail is not marked "as read" in mail app.
We can also set to have "archive" in mail notification option. We have all this option in Wear but not in all SW2 notification app

Installed and tested your app. It do not works, when read or dismiss notification from the SW2 with your app, the Android phone notification are not dismissed et stay on phone status bar. So app do not do the job and can not be used for notification system on SW2
Echofon Pro, Stopwatch&Timer+ -> dismiss from watch and even with "Erase" on watch -> notification stay on phone.
Maybe you can correct before I leave a review on PlayStore ?

Hello,
Sure we can talk on skype and see whats going on there. First I would recommend to enable brutal mode from the settings window.
Also, there is a option that will NOT allow notifications if the screen is turned on.
There are some apps on the notification screen that don't have any action assigned to it.
But to dismiss everything should work.
Please provide more info about the android system version and the device you are using
PM with your skype and I'll add you
Thanks
Sony xperia Z5 compact android 5.1.1
allow notification with screen off
brutal mode on.
but nothing to do with dismiss android notification
All smartwatch can erase notification from phone status bar, otherwise no need smartwatch
Just try timer app : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sportstracklive.stopwatch
start a timer, you have notification et dismiss from SW2, notification still present on phone.
Try other notification app, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.shuisky.notify do the same and notification dismissed also from phone, it is like this app must works

What you are asking cannot be developed so easy.
I tested the stop watch app and the notification that its using is custom. So the notification system for the smartwatch will work for all standard notifications from the device. It cannot guaranty that every app can be supported.
But I'll give it a try. Basically you want the dismiss option from the phone notification to be accessible from the watch. I'll do a update in a few days

Yes simply dismiss phone notification when erase/dismiss from the SW2.
SW2 system have serious issue with notification maybe to old ? other watch : Wear, pebble, Samsung Gear...can dismiss phone notification in same time dismiss watch notification.
Got my SW2 since three months and it has some flaws with my P8.
The SW2 app sometimes does not launch despite the fact I protected it from the RAM optimiser, some apps won't launch and/or install, notifications sometimes won't sync (Probably because of Informer...), watch won't connect to phone until I reset it sometimes...
That's quite sad because it's an amazing watch. Because of that I might get the Huawei Watch in a near future.
Anyone notice that when you long press icons with notification badges on them you no longer see the notifications just the shortcuts?
I really enjoyed the ability to long press icons to see a notification description that I could click to access or swipe away. The one thing Android did way better than iOS. Now when I long press I just see shortcuts meaning I have to go in the app and sometimes I don't even see what the notification is for. This is really disappointing.
Anyone know when this functionality disappeared? Or did I change something in my settings by mistake? Is there a way to get this functionality back?
I'm using the s20 ultra SD with the one UI launcher if that helps.
Any help would be appreciated.
