How to remove No SIM found notification (Android 7.1.1 Nougat) I bought a new phone with Android 7.1.1 Nougat unlocked from Verizon. Since I bought it unlocked, I get a notification that says 


  No SIM found, Tap for more information.


It really irritates me because it takes up screen real-estate and I sometimes tap on it by accident. Is there any way to get rid of this notification? (Also the icon on the left side with a SIM card with a strike through it.) Thanks!
If you put the phone into Airplane Mode, it'll stop looking for a SIM card and the notification should go away. Of course this also disables Wifi put you can enable Wifi while it is still in Airplane Mode.
