How to Disable Privacy Guard Notification - LineageOS Questions & Answers

The in-built Privacy Guard prompts notification on the app that I launch / using EVERYTIME. The notification has nothing much but only inform the user about the APP that I was using has been blocked by Privacy Guard from accessing my personal data.
Is that possible to hid this notification completely?

Settings>Privacy>Privacy Guard. Toggle off 'Show notification'.

not working, still getting notification even after toggle off notification in privacy guard.

Thanks it works on my S4 .??

Found it...
I also didn't find it 'cause I was confused by two other on/off sliders (SELinux-Status, Build-Signature).
Exact location of the option to deactivate the privacy protection, guard or trust notification in LineageOS 15.1 (as of Nov' 2018) is here:
Settings -> Security & privacy -> Trust -> Privacy Guard -> Settings menu (dots) in top right corner -> Show notification ON/OFF
In German:
Einstellungen -> Sicherheit & Datenschutz -> Trust -> Datenschutz -> Untermenü (Punkte) oben rechts -> Benachrichtigung anzeigen AN/AUS

Found Privacy Guard Notification Switch
Hurray, I found the switch to turn off the annoying Privacy Guard notifications.
Its in SETTINGS / Security & Privacy / Privacy / Trust / Privacy / Privacy Guard, then click the 3 vertical dots in the upper right corner to open the options. Uncheck the box next to Show Notifications.

[Q] Lollipop: Marking Apps as sensitive (for lockscreen notifications)?

Settings -> Sound -> Notifications -> Apps
I can only see "None" and "Priority". "Sensitivity" is missing. The option to hide sensitive notifications from the lock screen is there though.
Is there a way to toggle the sensitivity for specific apps? Workarounds are welcome too (I'm rooted).

[Q] How to toggle an app's notifications as "sensitive"?

Is there a way to toggle sensitive data notifications on a per app basis for the LG G3 Lollipop update? I'm using the LS990 (Sprint), and while I can toggle "hide sensitive data on lockscreen", this applies to all applications.
AOSP and CyanogenMod have a setting under Device -> Notification manager -> App notifications that lists all apps. When you select an app, one of the options is Sensitive, which determines whether the app's notifications are "sensitive data" for the purposes of this lock screen setting.
The closest settings I can find on the LG G3 is under Device -> Sound -> Notifications: Apps (this is under Sound?), but the only settings are None and Priority. Without this toggle, the "hide sensitive data on lockscreen" setting is useless as everything from the weather to current traffic conditions is considered "sensitive data".

P.S. - As I've stated, I'm seeing this on the Sprint variant, but I believe this is an issue with the general LG Lollipop skin, and not necessarily anything specific to the carrier.

Anyone aware of lock screen gestures

Hi guys.
My P2 runs on Nougat with February security patch.
I was just messing around with the activities widget of Nova launcher(free version) . During that I found "Screen off gestures". Even though I enabled them, I could not get them working. Any Ideas to get then working?
These screenshots are self explanatory. You can find the Screen off gestures setting under Widgets -> Activities - > Settings (#171) -> Screen off gestures.

Samsung health (steps in notification panel)

Seems to have disappeared.
Anyway of re-activating this feature?
Anybody?
If you mean for it to show in the notification panel then go to' 'Samsung Health' > Three dots (top right corner) > 'Settings' > 'Notifications' > and turn on 'Current steps'. This worked for me, but if the feature is enabled then may have to do more digging.

Yeah, I am but I still have this feature? It should be there unless, like you said, they removed it through an update either through Android OS or the application itself.
Go to app info of samsung health

Enable current steps.
I personally disabled it after one ui because I prefer it in a form of widget...

Disable Smart notification control Settings:
Notification > Notification and status bar > App notification management > Select apps >
Enable notifications for selected apps:
Settings > Notification > Notification and status bar > App notification management > Select apps >

I own a x50 pro, but ur right.. I uninstalled many apps using the adb method... But one unfortunate thing about the device, as rightly mentioned by the op, is the OS.. And there is no way to root the device, at least I couldn't find any...

Any issues with notifications? :silly:
I have debloated quite a lot unfortunately I also managed to delete some essential Phone app which made the phone crash right after unlock. had to factory reset it and start over, now it's almost perfect still hat the OS and can't get a new launcher running as they all exit when pressing the home button. Other than that it's a great phone and no notification issues so far

I've gotten my launcher to stick on my Nex 3, after you set it to default you have to restart the phone and it will stay. also make sure you have made a vivo account that way you can change the launcher anyway
