Can I stop apps from auto-linking "today", "tomorrow", and "now" to the calendar? Hi everyone. I have a Samsung Galaxy S8+ running Android Pie (but it was also happening with earlier versions). When I type something in the Messages app or the Samsung Notes app, every use of the words "today"...

Re: [Solved] Disable Facebook Birthday Notifications? Are you on a Droid Razr HD or Droid Razr Maxx HD? With the latest version of Android and the facebook app? Just checked mine again, and indeed I have the setting available. If you have a different phone or different version of Android, it...

Re: [Solved] Disable Facebook Birthday Notifications? Wow.... that was buried in the depths of obscurity. Thanks for finding and posting that! That seems to be the "correct" solution for this, and I don't think I would have ever found it on my own. Will update original post at top to point...

Re: Disable Facebook Birthday Notifications? Thanks to everyone for the suggestions. As best I can tell, even when you turn off all notifications from within the facebook app [ Facebook --> Settings --> Notifications ], the current version will ignore the setting in the case of birthday...

Re: Disable Facebook Birthday Notifications? Oops! Missed your answer. :-) Never saw that before... will give it a go. Thanks!

Re: Disable Facebook Birthday Notifications? Ah-HA! Maybe I have found it. As I mentioned above, when I long-click on the notification, I get a link to "App info". When I press that, it takes me to the regular app page where I can select Force Stop, Uninstall, Clear Data, etc. There is...

Re: Disable Facebook Birthday Notifications? I double checked that, indeed, Sync Contacts is off. I actually don't see a menu specified "exactly" as spelled out above, but I'm sure it's the same one. Settings --> Accounts --> Facebook --> Contacts is where I go, and it's not really a...

Re: Disable Facebook Birthday Notifications? Thanks for the suggestion. The only calendars there are (A) my gmail account calendar; and (B) my device calendar. When I view the calendars, they don't seem to have these birthdays listed. I will uncheck the "Device calendar" to see if that...

I keep getting notifications in the notification bar from facebook (apparently) telling me when people have birthdays. I can't figure out why I am getting these. I have disabled notifications from the facebook app. I am not syncing facebook contacts with my phone. To the best of my...

I find myself using the websites more and more, simply because each individual app results in more "software update available" notifications than I care to deal with. It gets old having to install updates every other day.

I could have sworn I just saw my 4G indicator light up, but it quickly reverted to 3G. Anyone else out here finding access? Sent from HTC Thunderbolt using Tapatalk.

Several apps provide a toggle switch for the lock functionality (I am using Elixir). I have a small toggle button on my home screen that lets me turn it on and off at will. Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk

Confirmed by email exchange with HTC support... there is no way to turn it off. Frustrating for those of us with very active Google+ accounts. ----- Thank you for your email regarding the "Matched contact suggestions" notification on your HTC Thunderbolt device from Verizon Wireless...

Since jumping on the Google+ bandwagon, I am constantly receiving the notification for "matched contact suggestions", and I would really like to disable it. I am thinking it has to do with new people I follow (or that I am being followed by) on G+. Is there any way to disable that...

I liked it. I guess.
