Anyone to disable ios5 dropdown & pulldown menu

[Asianxfatty]

I was wondering is there any way to disable the dropdown and pulldown menu from the top of the screen. its really annoying, i prefer my 4s to be like the 4, with no dropdown menu or pulldown menu..i disabled all the notifications, but i just get an empty pulldown menu..it bugs me when im playing games...

i probably have to wait for a jailbreak right?

That issue is something game developers will have to fix.

Check you updates, game develops may have already addressed this issue.

when playing games (which go full screen) you actually have to pull down twice to get that menu to pull down.

so that shouldn't be a problem unless you happen to be playing a game that requires multiple movements from that side of the screen.

Making repeated swipes across the screen is pretty darn common in games. I'm finding this beyond irritating in some of the games I have. I hope there's a solution on the developer or user end.

Currently both the iPhone 4S and iPhone have the pull down notification center.

Currently both the iPhone 4S and iPhone have the pull down notification center.

It's an iOS 5 feature so it doesn't matter which phone you have if you still have iOS 5. The only way to not have it is to have a phone with an iOS version lower then 5.0. All new iPhone 4's and 4S' come with 5.0.

 

[srf4real]

Yeah. It is called Notification Center in iOS 5. There is no "off" switch, but have you tried removing all apps in : settings > notifications? I think it's one of the best features of the new OS and the reason I gave up my untethered jailbreak of iOS 4. (That, and iTunes Match) There might be some devs working on a jb tweak to turn it off in iOS 5. Probably.. but try removing all the apps that are set to "on" in notifications like I suggested and get back to us if you still get a dropdown screen that is just blank canvas...

Well I used the notification center alot but now, about a month later, I don't use it that much.

YES if you want your notifications to be like iOS 4 then all you do is go to Settings->Notifications -> each app select alert style to NONE and it sets that particular app to the iOS 4 message system

Fix for the Dropdown Notification Center!!

Here is the link to the YOUTUBE video on how to get that d@mn notification center to stop pulling down!

There is no written instructions so you may need to fiddle with it some. It is pretty clear from the video what to do, except for the end. When you turn the Assistive Touch "ON", you press the "Home" button 3 times and !Voila!... no more Notification Menu!!! It worked perfect! Here are the small written instructions, but the video shows it better [take note of step 3, that's where I got confused on the video]...

1- Enable Assistive Touch option on Triple-Click Home Button settings.
2- Turn ON Assistive Touch.
3- Triple click the Home Button with the Assistive Touch menu.

Please reply and let me know if it worked for you or not! And 'Thanks' for reading!
