Turning off notifications - Zenfone 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am trying to turn off notifications, but there are always two that will re-appear.
The first one is the truly brilliant "SD.Card inserted"... as it has been inserted by me from day one. But I still cannot find a way to turn it off.
The other nuisance is the "Google Play Store", which is clicked "off" in the notification saettings, yet still appears, telling me that "Music Folder Player" will not work, without it. Which is of course not true?
Is there a way to really turn off notification like those two?
Thank You

So, there is actually no one reading Asus Zenfone threads, who has noticed that problem ????

Alerts prevent xda from shutting down

Hi everyone,
I have a big problem with my xda:
Every alert orevents the phone from switching off the light and switching off at all. Only after I click on "close", everything works fine.
The big problem is, when an alert pops up at night, the light stays active til' I confirm the alert and so the battery gets empty.
Is there any idea what's causing this problem?
THX,
MatMike
Its a windows setting...
Yes, I found this too. You need to switch off pretty much all of the alerts in Windows. I found the 'low battery' warning the worst. My battery goes fairly low, then in the middle of the night an alert pops up telling me the battery is low, and the screen stays on until you turn it off, or more likely the battery goes totally flat -doh! Anyway you need to go to "Start", "Settings" "Personal" "Sounds and notifications" and go through all of that list in Notifications to stop them switching the screen on etc. Great set of defaults hey!lol

Text message annoyance

Hello,
I have looked everywhere but can not find any setting for it, and i have upgraded to the latest stock htc rom but still same issue:
Sometimes, only sometimes, when I get a new text/sms message the phone beeps about it, but sometimes it just flashes the green light and no sound. When I turn the display on, it takes a second and then! the beep! for a new text/sms is played. It is very annoying, as I can go hours without knowing I actually have a new message.
Anyone else have this issue? anyone know the solution?
thanks in advance,
modano
yea it happens to me too, duno y tho. Sometimes mine vibrate with no sound and the vibration doesn't stop either, just keeps going.
HTC released a hotfix, go check their website.
I had this problem and found a post on this forum which fixed it:

The advanced config tool is knocking around somewhere, should come up easily in a search, hope that helps...

voice lady wont go away

When I do things on my phone like browse the web theres a narrator voice that says thing like "page loaded" and when making a selection on things is says "checkbox selected" and its really loud and annoying , does anyone know how to turn this off?
Look under settings, my device, accessibility.
Settings->Accesibility->Talkback off.
Mine will not go away either and i have turned off talk back multiple times

got "Car mode" working on ATT S5! clue to Svoice wake while locked?

so as you may or may not know or care, "car mode" is not available in the notification pull down and apparently was replaced by "drive mode" or whatever the dumb app name from ATT is. I think the Tmobile/Verizon S5's may have Car Mode though.
who cares right?
well car mode is sort of related to SVoice in that nobody can seem to get the S5 to wakeup from a lock screen/display off using a voice trigger like the Moto X or other older Galaxy phones.
Anyways, I tried to use Tasker to run a "Car mode" task, and the first time I did it, a few days ago, it said "not available on this device"..oh well
But I tried it tonight and for some reason it worked!
Now the phone shows the car mode icon in the notification bar.
Maybe this is a clue of some kind that Svoice voice trigger while locked/display off is somehow achievable?
And a juicy further tidbit:
The blue LED blinks about every 6 seconds while the screen is off. I have tasker enabled and no new notifications in the menu bar.
Isnt the blue-LED blink supposed to be related to voice recording with the screen off?? Is this a clue that the Hexagon low power DSP is listening even though it doesnt work for some reason?
Ive tried to get the phone to wakeup while locked but I cant.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Could you post the steps to the task please?

since I wrote that I've uninstalled tasker for other reasons
the task I made was absolutely bare bones IIRC.
in fact there was no "event"..I got car mode running by making it the "action" or whatever and just running it stand-alone with the arrow

[Q] My Phone Keeps Beeping

I just recently bought my Note 4, and have to say it is the single best phone I have ever owned lol. I am still trying to learn about it. I mean it is Rooted and I do not even know what that means LOL
Anyways the reason I joined is because I need help. This has been happen off and on, my phone keeps beeping every time I shake my phone. I did not know you can shake the phone and even have it do anything (I need to really learn more about my phone haha). When I am out walking the beep drives me bonkers! It will even bleep during the start of a phone call. I recorded the sound and really hope that I can upload it.
Thank you in advance for any help you may be able to provide. I am sure it is just something simple, but I am not seeing it
Hi there,
A simple Google search brings me here:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s4/282858-2-tone-beep-sound-constantly-playing.html
Did you try turning off NFC to see if this causes the problem?
(This doesn't seem to happen on my handset when turned on btw.)
Else turn off Orientation Lock maybe?
(Seeing the fact you say it occurs more when you move or shake your handset.)
Question: Does the sound also play if the profile is on silent mode?
Kind regards, Stefan.
Thank you for taking the time to respond to my question
I came across that same thread when I was searching for answers before coming here. It did not find it relevant because my NFC is not on.
I was able to kind of see a screen before silly me accidentally hit the back button. I did not see the name of the app, but it was a white background with a picture of an orange mic and switch on the bottom in orange that says sonar. There was probably other things on the page but that is all I saw for the split second I saw the screen. Then it is after it started doing the beeping. When I look at my apps the only ones I have that have anything to do with my mic is S Voice, Voice Recorder and Voice Search, and not one of them are what I saw. The beeping I am hearing same kind of sound I would hear if I tap Voice Search, but that is not what is causing the beeps.
Hi again,
It does sound like the Voice Search beep, but it seems different.
You could try to disable double tap home for Svoice but I doubt if it would work:
Double tap the home button to*open S Voice.
Press the menu button in the top right of the app.
Tap “Settings.”Uncheck “Open via the home key.”
Did you check the screen orientation lock yet?
I assume you have rebooted your handset right?
Kind regards, Stefan.
We are becoming fast friends! LOL
Yes it does sound the voice search, and it does go away after I reboot my phone, I would just really like to know what this is though so I can try to prevent it from happening or turn it off when it does happen.
Again, thank you so much for caring enough to try and help me.
An other thing that ia worth mentioning is under:
Accessibility these is: direct acces.
When enabled it enables certain user set options by 3x pressing the home button.
But I could not find any option that enabled this beeping.
It could very well be a third party app causing it.
Anyways good luck, maybe anyone else has some input.
Kind regards, Stefan.
You might try safe mode to see if an app is causing it. It will temporarily disable all non-system apps. See if that fixes it. If so, it is an app you installed. m.androidcentral (I can't post links yet so change this to a '.') com/galaxy-note-4-safe-mode
