Hey, after several months of being annoyed at HTC, and then LG, for disabling the native System UI Tuner, I tripped across this app yesterday.

I loathe the NFC icon, and so would just toggle NFC when I needed it.
It does require two ADB commands (on non-rooted phones) to work, but that was easy enough. I decided to remove the Alarm icon as well, and am the happiest I've been since the last time I rooted years ago.
