Frequently i get notifications with the title: Channel 50 in my alcatel One touch Fire. these notifications arent sms or somethig, they just appear even when i'm not connected to a network 3g or Wifi. they display a name of a local carrier, my residence state e my DDD number.

      • NOTE It shows all carries we have in Brazil randomly

In other words the notification is like this: Channel 50 Claro SP 11

They don't interfere in my performance. Its just annoying. If there is a way to remove them, please, i would like to know.

This could be related to channel broadcasts that some carriers use for special purposes. See also thread https://support.mozilla.org/questions/977608

You could check the setting "Receive cell information" in your phones settings. If this is on, this could be the reason for seeing such messages.
