Removal of NFC icon in noti bar - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps

Not sure if anyone posted this but I found a super easy way to kill the stupid "You NFC is on" notification.
Edit /system/csc/feature.xml file
Find the line:
CscFeature_NFC_StatusBarIconType>ATT< CscFeature_NFC_StatusBarIconType
Remove ATT save file and reboot.

Gonna have to be a little more specific for n00bs (like me, sorta), the file is called "feature.xml" not "features.xml," and I see a few instances of "ATT" but not a whole line by itself - what is the actual line?
Thanks in advance! Next task is getting rid of the Smart Stay Eye icon!

Hate to be a pain, one more edit - the full line reads:
<CscFeature_NFC_StatusBarIconType>Att</CscFeature_NFC_StatusBarIconType>
Thanks! Done and done, works great!

Why remove it, we can disable it on NFC settings right?

You're missing the point...... for some reason, Samsung decided we needed to be constantly reminded on the notification bar that NFC was enabled - we want it enabled, we don't want to disable it just to hide the icon!

just like the freaking driving mode icon and smart stay icon! I turn on driving mode and smart stay at all time, I don't need these 2 stupid icons taking up spaces on status bar! I also have noteII, it doesn't have these stupid icons! Anyone know how to remove it?

Those are smali edits of systemui I believe. Note 2 on 4.1.2 on T Mobile has the smart Stay icon.

I generally just change second line right below that one, from default to false on my Canadian version since sgs3 and works here too.
JKAY DELUXE [I9300 JB 4.1.2]

Thanks for the heads up. That icon was annoying me.

For Canadian users (on Bell at least), there is no features.html file.
Look for others.html in the same directory, make the required changes and you are golden.
Cheers!

Must have been an AT&T decision. I switched from the S4 on Sprint to the AT&T S4 and on the Sprint version there was a clear option to disable the icon. Strange.

for rogers , the file is called others.xml
but anyone happen to know what line is for blocking mode ?
would like to disable that icon.

You see Im trying to port that NFC icon on other S4 variants. Because AT&T is the only one that have it on status bar.. Some people wants it so I'm trying to do it for them.. I changed the systemUI icons.... Some says att and i changed them to default... Anyways that didnt worked and flashing a att rom on my tmobile s4 did the tricked. But also people want the tmobile based roms cause of the wifi calling feature

[MOD] SHOstock2 v3.0.4 Tweaks (06/02) - Flashable Packages Included

First off, hats off to Shoman for producing one of the BEST ROMs available. If you use his ROM make sure you thank him.
I recognize that his ROM is tailored to meet his personal preferences and I would not ask him to change that, so I tweaked a couple of things in the ROM to meet my personal preferences. I've been running this for most of this week and figured I would share with the community.
MOD: Power Menu Tweaks
Tweaked power menu to use the stock theme (colors)
Tweaked power menu to only include "Power Off", "Reboot", "Recovery", & "Download" options.
MOD: Status Bar Tweaks
Statusbar (wifi & radio) reverted back to v2 layout.
Tweaked status bar to use ICS theme color the the time.
Tweaked expanded status bar to include long date.
Tweaked expanded status bar to include "No notifications" text.
Tweaked expanded status bar to appear more ICS.
Removed the AT&T logo from the expanded status bar.
PACKAGES
There are 4 flashable packages available:
All Tweaks (includes both mods above)
Power Menu Tweaks
Status Bar Tweaks
Remove Tweaks
Downloads
HOW TO DOWNLOAD FROM GOOGLE DRIVE
1. Click on the zip file listed in the left pane. The right side will display the contents of the zip.
2. Click the "File" menu item below the ZIP file name and select download.
Just in case...
Thanks for this! Now if I can only find a way to replace that battery indicator, i'll actually use that ROM for more than a day.
Thanks ! Nice options for Sho's work

Awesome! Gonna try the power menu option. The wifi and radio don't bother me, but I like the power menu colors to match.
Actually downloaded all tweaks will report back.
Is there a trick for downloading from Google Docs? I keep getting a page showing the contents of the Zip file.

Thanks. I've actually been thinking about removing the "No notifications" text... basically reverting back to how Shoman has it. I'll probably post an update tomorrow evening.
Would you consider adding back the carrier information? It's a serious hindrance for me personally as I am continuously roaming (out of the country 340+ days/year). I need to see what network I'm connected to as I frequently have to switch as I move about.
Thanks!
EDIT: Alternatively, do you have any idea whether it would be a simple thing to edit the stock ShoStock 3.0.4 status bar files to remove the roaming "R" without changing anything else? That's really the only fix I need from 3.0.4 but I can't really bug Shoman about something so minor, although I'm guessing he will include it in the next update. I'd be eternally grateful if it's a super quick thing and you could send me a zip just with the R gone.
One word. Perfect. I love shos rom but his theming This is exa This is exactly what I've been looking for. Thank you thank you thank you.
Hope we'll see an update for 3.0.5.

It's all good, glad to find out it works as well. Hope you get some free time. Had those kind of weeks before myself at a previous job and it sucks. Hopefully the money made it worth it.
Would still like it without the Notifications text like we talked about before.
Still some badass tweaks. My wife just ogt her a SGSII as a replacement for her Inspire and she hated the wifi and data icons. She would only stay with Shostock once I showed her this mod.

Sweet thanks! I've been waiting for this one.
Thanks for your contribution .
ohhhhh, so that's what that stupid icon was. Now I just have to figure out what the other 13 icons HTC decided to put up there are.
is the icon just transparent? There's a huge gap between where the icon was and the bluetooth icon

Yes it is transparent.
That's what I figured, but hey, the icon being transparent is so much better than the ugliest icon I have ever seen. Thanks!

That is the E911 lock. It means your phone has a good location to give 911 should you dial it. It can not be gotten rid of as far as I know.

It's the location icon, all the custom theme status bars get rid of it.
LOL I spent a good 15 minutes searching for the answer to this so I could finally have something to contribute (instead of just asking questions) and google finally supplied a link with the answer! It was this exact same thread... Jeez...
i dont think it has much to do with E911 - if you disable location services it will get rid of the ))) but the compass icon will still be there...

Yeah if you're familiar with theming, it's in one of the drawable files in systemUI, just extract, rename the 2 .png's to .bak, rezip, push back to system>app, check permissions, reboot and profit.

I am probably not super qualified yet to answer this but maybe can help. When I use morphology to customize whichever rom I am on, it asks as one of the customizations if you want to disable status bar clock altogether. I dont know what rom (s) you are using but it works on jb, jedi, and clean. Or ask the dev, maybe he will help you.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
The Beans ROM has the option to remove the clock from the status bar, so if you look at that code or maybe PM beanstown, the dev, you may find an answer. Apologies if not helpful.
You can download tweakbox. While it won't rid you of a clock, you can hide it by changing the color.

[Q] Rooted Galaxy S4 - Question about Icon labels/text

Hi, I apologize if this has been covered elsewhere but I can't find it.
I just rooted my Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 (MD5) and still running the stock ROM. I'd like to change the text underneath my app icons on my screens and the app tray. For example, I'd like the ability to change "Gallery" to "Pictures".
Does an easy way to do this exist?
Thank you!

Desktop visualizer maybe. I was thinking you could do it manually editing the android manifest of each file but didnt find anything there.
