Removing or deleting quick settings

I have a Samsung S4 mini. Reasonably good phone, fits my needs....But I hate the quick settings on the notification area. Is there a way to remove these?

- I can root the phone, then what? I want to keep the manufacturers rom, and do not want to load another launcher, etc.

So if anyone knows exactly how to do this, pls replay with a step by step method to get rid of these annoying toggles.

Thx

I find them useless, I set my phone one way, and leave it alone.

I dont mind rooting the phone, but im looking for a step by step cookbook to remove the quick settings

Anyone?

Thank you Dyno!

That is not quite what I'm looking for, as I'm looking for a step by step as if you were telling a 2 years old, also I'm not looking to install anything else, but exactly the opposite.

 

I don't have a problem rooting, my question is as follows: once I root the phone, what steps do I take to disable or hide quick settings?

I do not want to install something on top of the of
OS or the launcher, since the more stuff that it's installed the bigger probability that something goes haywire.

So if you have a way to do this without installing a framework like xposed or anything like that, by all means I'm interested.

 

Vincent to the rescue!!

I have experience with ADB & I can see that they are hiding rather then removing the quick settings.

Thank you Vincent
