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.
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?
Having WiFi preferred selected has not resolved my onslaught of notifications, this was one of my original attempts to resolve. I know your next desire is to blame the WiFi or the internet provider. But even if the problem were with my internet service, I don't need or want the notification every time it comes in/out of range for service. There's no need to push a solution for you service onto another provider.
Lol, I'm so sorry. It appears your telepathic future forecasting ability has failed you, once again. I simply input the solution that worked for me, and ordinary everyday users. Had us common folk known ahead of time that you would make ill-fated attempts at mind reading, it perhaps would've saved us some time that would've been better spent helping others that may appreciate it. Good luck, Ms Cleo🧙🌠
Well, I guess this isn't a forum to get solutions but rather to kicked in the teeth by those who aren't suffering. I guess the solution is to try another carrier any just avoid the haters.

Or perhaps, you should just stick to the rotary phone😂
I may have a solution.
For LG G5.
slide notification to expose “cogwheel” icon.
tap cogwheel
tap “all categories”
look for items that don’t say “no sound”
tap the ellipsis on one of those items
tap “importance”
tap “low, no sound or visual interruption”
tap the back arrow three times to leave the menu tree.
I think this is working for me. time will tell.
I've got the cure for the Motorola G7 play probably will work on other versions of android as well on any phone.
1.Configuraciones
2. apps and notifications
3. See all apps
4. Tap the 3 dots menu upper right corner
5. Tap show system
6. tap phone services
7. tap notifications
8. Turn off alerts
Goodbye notifications on the temporarily turned off by your carrier crap.
You're very welcome!
I arrived here trying to solve the same issue with an old LG G5 that I want to use for wifi only. The above helpful solution from sanford falls short in two ways. #3 see all apps - no such option. But if I tap App Info I am able to continue through step #5. For #6 tap phone services, I have no such app listed. However I DO have Call services. But tapping that gives me the option of enabling or disabling Icon Badge, and that's it.
If anyone here has a solution for killing the alerts for a G5, please share. I'm still getting "No voice services" and also "SIM not provisioned" that I cannot kill.
youre unable to just flip it into airplane mode and then turn wifi back on?
I will try that. I use the phone for work email and IM, so would need those notifications. If they still work normally, this might be better than nothing...
