Can someone help me with this issue....I've been having the location blinking on my notification bar...and I have no idea why ??? It seems to be only happening in the Verizon variant, because I have a lg g4 on Sprint and have no issues....thanks in advance.
Yea I can't figure it out either. I am assuming now it is either Google services or some sort of Verizon spy app.
I went through with AppOPs and disabled Location services for pretty much everything... yet the Location icon was still popping up at random.
At this point, I just set Location toggle in my notification shade and just leave it disabled completely unless I need it.

Anyone else have this problem with the icon in the status bar of the talkback icon showing up in settings saying that it is on?
I check the settings and it is definitely off but the icon remains.
I've restarted the device and reset the icon by turning it on and back off, but eventually the icon finds itself back on randomly.
It's pissing me off.

Same problem here . Usually happens after a restart. Only way I get rid of it is by enabling it and disabling it again (though operating in Talkback mode is a bit of a work and takes a bit of understanding of how to operate...like using using two fingers to swipe the screen and double tap instead of a single tap to select an option. Hence I would not recommend my way of getting rid of the icon, unless you know what you are doing ).
Samsung should really come up with a fix of this annoying bug.
Happen to me as well until I uninstall all apps that use this method to push notifications.
I.e. go launcher notification plugin

So Google App is turning location on 24/7. If I go into app permissions and deny it, the icon in the status bar goes away instantly. And comes back instantly as soon as I allow it. I have good gps lock in other apps. I have cleared all data in it....no change.
Any one else, or any ideas what to do next?

Hello...
Not sure it will help... Has it something to do with "location history" ?
Google app trying to locate you all the time?
Try looking at Google app > settings > accounts & privacy > Google activity control > location history
Try turning it off and see if location enables itself yet?!
Good luck...
Hey,
Forgot to add my screenshot :angel:
Cheers...
That was a good idea, but alas no change.
Bump, I found something on this.
If I have location on high accuracy Google App gets a lock and the location icon in the status bar goes away. As soon as I switch location back to device only Google App locks the location icon back on.
I can repeat this every time.
Could a couple of people test this for me to confirm and let me know please?
Really XDA? No one has 30 seconds to switch Location to Device Only and tell me if it locks the location icon on?
Are you using the pixel launcher? If you are then try to deny location for it too.

I have the situation under control. I can deny Google and it's fine. Or I can set location to High Accuracy. Just trying to get confirmation it is a Google bug so I can report it.
I have a problem with the sound notification from one app. Basically I turned on all permissions, auto start, all the stuff I could find on youtube still I don't receive sound and vibration notification from the app. It is a simple app where you get notified with two beeps sound 15 minutes before set time and I have floating notification and visual when the phone is in my hand, but when it is locked it doesn't notify me, it is shown on lock screen but doesn't awake the mobile phone and doesn't reproduce sound notification. Hope someone can help me, thank you in advance. Also on the dropdown menu and lock screen some facebook notifications are cut in half, are those MIUI system problems, or should I consider returning the phone because of some kind of error of this particular phone.

I had a similar issue with notifications and I fixed it by enabling "notification access" to "xiaomi service framework" in system settings. If that doesn't work, I'd try factory resetting.

I don't think it will work, but my question is how to add exceptions to the security and cleaner I assume that is a problem?
Hi all -
Trying to see if this is normal behavior or a bug, but I have two notifications on my lock screen (Messages and Outlook). When I unlock the device, in the top left, I just see the clock and "AT&T". When I drag the status bar down, I see my messages and outlook notifications (they are not silent or minimized). Why would I want to see AT&T instead of these notifications? Is there an option I'm missing to remove the carrier info?
I'm having the same issue, you are not alone. I spent more than an hour going through every single setting, but found nothing on how to fix this issue.

Just to try and narrow the issue, are you also on an AT&T device?
Fair enough, my apologies.
I have Sprint, and this is happening on my Galaxy S20.

I think that is actually super helpful information. This appears to be a OneUI issue, rather than an android, carrier, or particular model issue. So it needs to somehow get reported to Samsung for a fix... Does anyone here know if there a public place where Samsung tracks bugs for these devices?
Or does anyone know a writer who would pick up this story for a media outlet to shine some light?
Just to try something, have you toggled the setting in status bar section that says show all notifications?
I'm taking about opening quick settings toggles, pressing the three dots menu and then status bar.
I hadn't tried that, no. However, I just did and that didn't change anything.
My wife has an S20 Ultra on AT&T, and she's seeing this as well. I know there's a way to request support or post your issue to the community in the Samsung Members app. I may try to do that from her phone later today.
I've had issues with app notifications and icon badges since the S8, they never seem to get them to work properly

UPDATE
I was using the trial for Sprint's Call Screener program. I turned it off earlier, and now I no longer see "Sprint" in the status bar. I see the icons like I should. I have no idea if that is what solved the problem or not, but I didn't receive an update today and that's the only thing I can remember changing.
Go to settings, display and change 'Full screen Apps' to Auto for all
I played with that setting. It didn't have an affect on the notification issue.

Vinsuja, that setting did not work for me, however you sent me on the right path. I have had this same issue with notification not showing. I found that the camera cut out setting is causing this. Go to settings > display > full screen apps > click 3 dots for advanced settings > turn on hide camera cutout. This adds a black bar at the top, but fixes the notification issue
Edit: You can turn the setting back off and notifications will appear. This seems to be an issue with the full screen UI
Try using QuickStar in Good Lock (if you don't have good lock yet, its in the galaxy store). Under "visibility of indicator icons" you can turn off "Network Information" on homescreen, lockscreen and Expanded QS panel, that should hide your AT&T/Sprint etc etc label in the status bar. Interestingly enough I have a Bell S20, by default for my region carrier name is not shown.. which is a bonus...
Hello
I've been having Notifications pop up relentlessly (full greyed out page) regardless if I have any notifications! Like every 1-2 Min. I've scrutinized settings to solve it.
Any corrective direction would be appreciated.
Same here with a few specific notifications. I'm hoping it's a bug they will fix in a future update.
I guess you can't disable System notifications. Seems to be the source.
Only notification I was getting that was annoying was the T-mobile Diagnostics one, found a way to uncheck that in the T-mobile app.
Mine seems to be related to google home and it finding speakers on the network.
OK
Found a setting in gestures I believe that whenever I swiped up on the side button, it triggered Notifications.
Find it! Uncheck it!
