How to get rid of the "notification" left softkey

[aznd000d]

I did a quick search but didn't see the answer.

Is it possible to get rid of the "notification" that appears on the left softkey when there's a vm, missed call, and/or msgs available?? I need to free that up to see the calendar button. I already have places on the today screen to tell me those things, I do'nt need it to take up my left softkey too.


Thanks.

Not Yet... Try this:

Sorta looks like they are binary settings where windows is setting the bits for different options:

0001 = ring....................1 decimal
0010 = vibrate................2 decimal
0100 = flash lled..............4 decimal
1000 = display message....8 decimal

So in binary 0000-1111 would have your phone ring, vibrate, flash led, display message. I have also included the decimal values as well for those not familiar with binary. I assume the last four bits are the duration for the led flashing. Change your settings, give it a minute to take and check the value in the registry. The same applies to all sounds that have that option in the personal settings tab.

Why not turn off notifications from Start > Settings > Notifications?
