Help! How to remove the white software update box under settings on SM-G928P? - Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How to remove or clear the white software update box under settings above quick settings on S6 Edge Plus g928p? You can x it off but when you close settings app completely off and open it back up, it shows up again. There is also a 1 showing beside system update option under settings app too. It never goes away and I have deleted the update in the fota folder. The white box annoys me more than the 1 does. How can I clear it? S6 Edge Plus g928p 6.0.1 Rooted Thanks

If you are rooted, have you tried to disable software update with quarantine or titanium?

How to enable System UI Tuner ?

Hello,
As you may know, Android 6 has a hidden feature, called System UI Tuner. This can be enabled by long-pressing the Settings icon in the top-right corner of the notifications bar. Once enabled, a new section appears in Settings, called "System UI Tuner". I think Developer mode must be enabled too for this to work, and animations must be on.
But on the S7 Edge, this doesn't seem to work. Tried to long-press that icon, and nothing. Animations are on, developer mode is enabled.
Did anyone succeed in enabling this ?
Thanks !

Not sure why you want that, since touchwiz ui already supports everything from there.. Imo

Really ? How can I remove icons from the status bar, like the Bluetooth icon even when it is enabled, for example, and have more room for notification icons ?

System UI Tuner isn't available on Touchwiz. Samsung removed it. However, I'm guessing most of you upgraded to Android Nougat, but for those of you who haven't should get this app called Good Lock.
Good Lock is an app made by Samsung that actually replaces the System UI on your phone, and will make it almost stock Android. I sure you still won't find System UI Tuner by holding the Settings button, but I sure that there is a setting in the Good Lock Settings menu to do so. My thought is that the Good Lock Settings Menu is their version of System UI Tuner.
You can find Good Lock in the Galaxy Store, but if it is not there for whatever reason, then just sideload it from this link here.
(apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/good-lock/good-lock-24-0-16-release/good-lock-24-0-16-android-apk-download)
--enter the link without the brackets, xda won't allow me to post links until I have made 10 posts--
I'm not sure if this will work in Nougat, as in the website it said that the minimum version of Android is Marshmallow, and the maximum version of Android is Marshmallow.
If you are willing to take the risk, try it and let us know if it will work.
Hope I helped!
It is pretty much impossible
You can't enable it Samsung and other companies have disabled it in manufacturing
How to enable system UI tuner in Samsung j5 prime
Go here and try it. I did get it working on my s7 edge non rooted but I recently had to do a factory reset and I can't get it to work. https://www.recovery-android.com/tips/access-system-ui-tuner-s7.html
i think this would be a better decision as it wouldnt require a computer.

simply enable with adb once and you can tweak your phone anywhere without having to use a computer

System UI Tuner in Nougat

Is it possible in any way to enable the System UI Tuner in Nougat build, or has Samsung removed this feature? I'm particularly looking for notification power controls as there seems to be no way to disable heads up without also making them silent.
Waiting to know the solution as well
Im annoyed by the WhatsApp heads up notification
Super annoying for sure! Hating 7.0 on AT&T because of this. Still no fix!
There's a new official API in Nougat for this
Check this https://www.xda-developers.com/get-custom-quick-settings-tiles/
Called? I don't see anything that disables peek and doesn't require root.

Sorry, don't understand what you mean by "called"

The "Nougat way" of editing quick settings buttons (actually replacing system UI tuner, which has been phased out) tiles doesn't' require root at all.
To use it under S7 nougat, fully expand quick settings area then, open the three dot menu and press "edit".
There are some 3rd party apps which allows to add custom tiles ("Custom Quick Settings" being one of them), some others apps already support this feature for their own usage.
I confess I don't know what "notification power control" is: I was only replying to the thread subject ("System UI Tuner in Nougat").
But maybe if you give a more detailed explanation of what you're trying to to ("disable peek"), I could help on it too.
"Called" means what is this app called that enables Ui Timer settings, therefore the ability to disable message peek.
Message peak is when you are trying to do something on your phone, but you cannot see your screen because every message that arrives is instantly in your face with the full length of the message for everyone to see. I want notifications to ding and vibrate, but only show an icon on the status bar. Not show my messages to the whole world, nor me when i don't want to see them. The only option in notifications with the Samsung version of 7.0 is everything off, or messages in your face with vibrate and ding. Horrible decision by Samsung.
System UI Tuner has the ability to set notification levels including disabling message previews however Samsung pulled it out in 7.0. The solution is this command and you don't have to be rooted:
adb shell settings put global heads_up_notifications_enabled 0

Works perfectly!
I, I get it: I didn't have all the extra options in system UI tuner in my previous device running Marshmallow (only the "tiles" stuff", this wasn't a Samsung device) thus my mistake on the exact scope of your question.
Dear madfusker,
Did you find a solution to the problem? I just updated my S7 Edge to Nougat 7,0 and now I experience the exact same problem as you. Very annoying.

I don't know how to enable the System UI Tuner, but you can disable "peeking". In Application Info inside Settings > Apps, just below Permissions you will find what you are looking for in 'Apps that can appear on top' under 'Advanced'. It's there for most apps.

I have night mode on my Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 tablet running 7.0
You might want to consider a third party app. I know it's not the elegant way but there is an app that offers you a full System UI Tuner.
https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.zacharee1.systemuituner
Read carefully etc - you still use a Samsung phone But I use this app on my Galaxy A5 running Stock Nougat TouchWiz and most stuff works.
Hope I could help achieving some good results.
Edit: Use this link from your phone with the xda labs app installed. I don't know whether the link works otherwise!

I've got Galaxy S8 Sm-G950U Nougat 7.0 on Boost Mobile and can't get the SystemUI Tuner to enable by holding down setting gear in notification blind. Did Samsung remove the feature?
My wife has Moto E4 Nougat 7.1.1 on Boost and I enabled it just fine on her phone. I don't see the Night Mode option in her SystemUI Tuner though.
Edit: nvm. They apparently did. For anyone else who wants the features of the SystemUI Tuner and can't enable it,

S8 edge notifications

I'm just wondering can we get edge notification s8 style on s7edge? Tnx in advance
Not to be a D, but wouldn't this question be better posted on the S7 / S7 Edge forum?
I was wondering the same.
Edge Notifications Not on VZW Variant?
Is this feature not on the VZW variant? When I first set up my S8+ it was there then completely disappeared. The button is not in the notification shade. I have reordered the buttons and the grid and cannot find it. Also it is not in the settings and or developer options. (I know it wouldn't be in developer options but checked anyway). I run Nova Launcher but I have switched back to stock launcher and still nothing. Went as far as factory reset and still nothing. Any thoughts?
Ask on the s7 thread....

The edge notifications (pill-shaped) are found in Settings -> Edge Screen -> Edge Lighting.
You can choose when they appear (Screen on, off, or both) and select all or specific apps to use the Edge notifications.

Sistem UI while charging...

Hi guys...
After I upgraded my S7 edge to Nougat I get a sistem UI notification in lockscreen and notifications when I'm charging... Is this normal?[
No one can help me?
yes, it is normal unless you go into settings and disable it.

How can I do that?
On the notification screen, select the item you want to disable and slide slightly to the left or right.
You will reveal a settings button.
Click on settings, diable notifications and you are done.

Samsung Galaxy A7 (2017) Not Accepting Themed AODs Anymore

Samsung Galaxy A7 (2017) on Android 7.0 w/ Samsung Themes v4.0.98.80319
Until recently, one of my options for the Always On Display was to use what came with a theme (for those that supplied AODs). If I selected something else, that option disappeared; however, I could get it back simply by re-applying the theme.
Without warning my AOD changed to the default and I lost the themed option in the AOD settings. Reapplying, or even deleting/ reinstalling doesn't give me the themed option back.
What's changed? Or has an updated somewhere meant that I now have to grant a permission somewhere (which I haven't found yet)?
Suggestions appreciated.
Hello,
There were some news posted earlier this month stating that this feature was removed from non flagship devices because it caused problems such as glitching. I remember reading it in the update, but I can't find the update notes from the Galaxy Apps Store.
If you go to settings and then apps, and find the AOD app, tap the three buttons on the upper right corner and tap on uninstall updates.
Hope this helps.
Yep, uninstalling the updates did the trick. Thanks.
