Using root to clear the status bar notifications
<p>I am currently working on an app using an <strong>accessibility service</strong> to handle notifications. What is particularly annoying is <strong>there is no way for third party apps to clear the status bar notifications</strong>, other than launching the intent linked to the notification (and launch the app).</p>

<p>I have searched for a long time for a way to <strong>use root to dismiss a notification</strong> or clear the complete list, but I have failed.</p>

<p>I think I remember an app I saw that cleared the status bar by quickly opening the status bar and clicking the clear button programmatically, but I can't find it anymore, and I think it was on Android 2.2. </p>

<p>I was wondering if there was a way to interact with the status bar notifications using some kind of <strong>database</strong> or with a simple <strong>SU</strong> call.</p>
