Hi Fellow ATT S7E Owners,

Some of us have chosen to stay Stock on this phone. My primary reason is not tripping Knox and using Samsung Pay. I have been trying to fix most issues or workarounds:

1. AdBlocking
2. Mobile Data toggle
3. Package Disabler to turn down the bloat

But for us ATT users, there is this annoying continuous notification that pops when we turn off data for the first time, after a reboot, EVER IF, we have WiFi on :mad:! It goes, "Mobile data is turned off."

Googled and researched ways of getting rid of this annoying message. Wondering if any of you had success with it? Getting all of us to talk about it to see if there is a solution, thank you!

There is very simple solution . Turn your data on. If you worry that you get overages turn off some background data for apps. When you on WiFi your mobile data is not in use.

For all the hype about having control over your notifications, not being able to change this one is super annoying. I'm also guessing AT&T is trying to get us to us as much data as possible so they change charge us more.

It shouldn't have to be this way, if I don't want data on, don't you agree? Why have needless signal processing or searching when I don't need something? ?

Tell me about it bud! Wish we had a way to slay it... For people wondering what this is, I'm attaching a screen shot...

The only way to get rid of it for now which is not very fun btw, Swipe right on the notification until you see the gear on the left and tap the gear. After that tap "phone" with the green icon next to the word "phone" and then tap "force stop".

So far that's the only way to get rid of it.

Thanks, but couldn't that endanger us getting a phone call, necessarily 100% of the time?

No Sir it was never solved and I moved on to the S8+.

The Theme I was using was called, "Red Strokes" I believe with custom icons and a wallpaper.

Hope someone cracks this!

Galaxy s9, Android 8.0.0 here. Following worked for me, check if it works for you:
1. Go to Settings
2. Go to Developer Options
3. Look for "Keep Mobile data turned on". Uncheck that.
And hopefully, voila...

EDIT:
This method does not work anymore...

1. Settings
2. Apps
3. Select Options, then Show System Apps
4. Locate "Phone" (Maybe there will be 3)
5. Select every "Phone" App that you find and select "Force to Stop"
and the message dissapers.
(If you restart the phone you will need to do this again).
