Every app that I have has an option in the settings to turn that off.

 

If you're rooted you can just freeze it.

 

I think if the app is designed to always show ongoing and has no option to hide it you cant really do anything except use another app. Keep researching though, there could be something but usually free apps offer a paid version that allows you to do this sometimes.

 

Ohhh, like ads? Either adaway or adblocker will do the trick.

 

What kind of apps are they? Are they apps like facebook(where you want to have them but dont want them running in the background), or bloatware(they came with the phone and you dont want them at all)?

 

What app is it?

 

Well what's it called? I'll decompile the apk and see if I can change it so that it won't pop up in the notification bar all the time.

 

Lolol. Anyways, it's $7.00 on the market. Could you copy your apk of it and upload it so I can take a look at it please? It should be in /data/app.

Unless you're talking about the free x3church?
