Disable no voice/data service notifications
I have an LG v20 phone for which T Mobile recently pushed out Android Oreo. At work, I get spotty reception. With the update, I get constant notifications that there is no voice/data service. I have WiFi at work and have enabled Wi-Fi calling, so these notifications are useless. But there doesn't seem to be an obvious way to turn them off. The best I can do is snooze them for 2 hours. 4 or 5 times a day, I have to do this, and it is very annoying. If I don't snooze them, then spotty reception means I will get a notification every few minutes all day. How do you get rid of these notifications?
These notifications would drive me nuts, too. It definitely sounds like a feature that was built into the latest update for the V20 which I can pass along feedback on. So far we haven't identified a work around for these notifications. If that changes, I'll be sure to update you.
Hey there! Do you mind checking your WiFi calling settings?

You'll want to have WiFi preferido selected. Let us know if this helps!

Ever since the push out of Android 8.0 to my LG G5, I've been receiving these unwanted notification constantly, all day long. I cannot just turn off the sound for all notifications.
How do I turn off "No voice service" notifications in Andriod 8?

@tmo_amanda @tmo_mike_c @magentatechie We need answers.
Yes, I've rebooted the phone and cleared the cache. This is an issue of receiving audio and visual notifications with no ability to modify whenever I walk from one end of my workshop to the other, or go into a different room in my house, or go to the bathroom. The notifications always come in pairs.

I've got this V60 ThinQ that sings this damn song all day long. This phone only has one option for sound, and that's to totally disable ALL notifications. I obviously want notification, just not the annoying one. How many more complaints do we have to record here before they give a fix? Or is one finally available somewhere?
im not seeing a onslaught of posts about this with the V60...this thread with a small handful of posts in it didnt even have enough to kick over to page 2.
might want to figure out why you dont have signal rather than figure out how to silence a specific notification that is telling you you dont have any signal.

Perfect Answer! It removes as SOON as we selected "use Wi-Fi to call if no cell service is available"!! 👍👍
I'm in the same scenario, and I get the same thing on my V20. I've called support and asked, and it seems like after 2 years, they still have no idea how to address this issue. I'm on WiFi calling at home because of the terrible signal (no LTE, rarely a usable signal for calls), and I get the same notification all day long. No amount of settings changes seem to help, but I just thought of something as I was typing this. I believe that there is an option to long press on a notification to get a small settings box on the left that would allow you to silence or potentially block a particular app from notifying you. Maybe try that?
I have my phone set to WiFi preferred, but I still get notifications.
Long pressing allows you to turn off icon badges, but not notifications themselves. Additionally, since the notifications come from "Call Services" which isn't listed in apps, there doesn't seem to be a way to turn them off through the settings menu.

This is driving me crazy on my LG G7 ThinQ, too. Doesn't T-Mobile offer a femtocell to provide a cell signal via a WiFi connection. Shouldn't that solve the problem?
