    Switching apps when closing notifications


    It seems like every time I click on the "X" or "Dismiss" to close a notification it switches from whatever application I'm in to the browser. How do I close a notification without switching applications?

    :)

  2. (SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

    Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

    Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.
