When the debug mode is enabled there is always some technical information shown on the screen,
that surely is interesting to some, but rarely for me.

Can you create an option that gives users the choice wether to hide this information or let it be displayed,
or is this to deeply embedded in xbmc?

There is an existing skin option "Show Debug Information" but I haven't figured out yet what this is supposed to do.
I can see no obvious changes when switching it on/off.

Such a feature would help me keeping the debug mode active, which might be helpful in times of new releases / increased crashes.

See advancedsettings.xml wiki

Thanks for the hint

I created an advancedsettings.xml and copied it via ssh in my userdata folder using mobile as username

Unfortunately it doesn't work. Shouldn't these lines bring the desired effect?

<advancedsettings>

<loglevel hide="false">1</loglevel>

</advancedsettings>

looks ok to me,
check your logfile if xbmc actually loads your advanced settings file.
