I often find myself wanting to show someone a picture or current screen display, but when I hand them my phone either touching the screen or one of the buttons or making that gesture suddenly changes the screen, or moves the picture. Is there some way to freeze the screen on purpose so it can be passed around safely?
I know about screen capture programs (Screenshot, Shootme) and the screen capture built into some ROMs Power Menu, but those don't keep the resulting scene on the screen (one needs to use a file program to find the graphic, which is clumsy and time consuming).
I agree, i always give my phone to my relatives or friends and they always press the back or home button somehow -.-!
One solution , would be to use a transparent lock screen with a very small unlock toggle ...
Lock it , hand it to them ...
Screenshot would do

This sounds just right, but is there such a lock screen available?

I have that program, and it works well, but after taking the shot one needs to recall the complex name and directory, and once found the viewing program has all the buttons active. I have a shortcut to Astro opening in the directory, but even with a half dozen thumbnails, it isn't clear sometimes which one I want to show. I don't see any option to freeze the view.

I don't have the link, but search around , there are some threads on transparent lockscreens ...
Not sure but you may be able to do it with just a transparent .png and setting that as your lockscreen background, but that is just a guess ....

There is no fix for that problem I'm afraid , if your phone is still under warranty then I'd suggest you send it back alternatively you could buy a new screen of ebay or amazon and try fixing it yourself the one good thing about LG phones is that they are easy to repair...
Hi Guyz. I find some spots on the screen when on max brightness. Can you please try the below and let me know if you face the same.
navigate to messages or contacts -> pull down the notif bar and turn to full brightness -> Do you see any spot like thing below the brightness toggle on the white screen of messages or contacts?
navigate to messages or contacts -> pull down the notif bar and turn to full brightness -> Pull down to expand the notif bar -> Do you see any distortion kind of thing above the navigation bar?
Attached images. Zoom and see it.

Nothing to worry about. That's normal.

That's fine, maybe there's something in the background (when openning chrome for example) when you pull down the notification bar it gets blurred

Getting blurred is different. but its some kind of getting distorted. You can see on the keypad as well. Do you guys also have similar issue?
Ah, I see what you meant.
No I don't face similar issue

Yes me too facing this issue and also icon label just showing up ( not fully) just above the navigation bar when I turn on Navigation dock.
Easy fix to solve this issue;
Go to display settings
Click screen resolution
Click OFF smart resolution
In CUSTOM-change resolution to 2k (highest) and let it refresh (the key is to change the resolution to native state once)
The issue is fixed
You can go back to display settings and enable smart resolution without any issues

U can use a new navigation bar developed by XDA . It's very fluid and iPhone like navigation.

Hi,
First, if this is not the right forum to post this, excuse me.
Now the question, I just received my new S20 + and so far I love everything about the phone, you know it comes from an S7 until it gives up. The problem I have is that, on my previous phone (S7), I was able to changed the font size of my clok, Wi-Fi, LTG antenna symbol and the battery charge percentage indicator, in my new s20 + I can't find where to do this is no option, I spend a whole day, searching on Google looking for a answer that can help resize my icon's in the top bar to make them larger, the actual size is so small that I have to put glasses to see it. Do you guys have any solution to this or help?
Thanks in advance.

Oh OK lol. Only option then is screen space zoom in display settings or dpi setting in dev options
It won't change that much but you can play around and see.
Same problem. So small that it hardy can be seen. No option to make it wider or biger

I have called "Samsung care", and they told me that, they do not have any solution as right now. They did recognized and mentioned to me that, the preview version had the option to resize font, but for some reason, it was removed from the new version..... go and figure that one out smh..
yeah.. samsung tends to remove features they "think" people do not use.
For me, i still miss the good old samsung camera on the S7 and my note 8 before the oreo update.. where u can zoom in or zoom out by pressing and holding the shutter button (the white circle), and drag it upwards (to zoom in) and drag in downwards to zoom out.
i have no idea why they removed it.. i loved it as i can zoom in or out using only one hand.. new camera app i need to use one hand to hold, another hand to pinch the screen to zoom in..
not to mention some old samsung apps that is very useful, like the snapbizcard.. snap a business card and everything is saved into your contacts, automatically. it was super useful. i tried to transfer the apk from my samsung note 8 to the s20, but the app crashed everytime i want to take a photo of a namecard.

What do you mean "android 10" ? all galaxy s20 are android 10 ! it is the same as screen zoom , higher value give you smaller status bar . i can get 480 but it dose not make any different .
That's weird....i have screen zoom set to lowest and text size to second to lowest and icons are not small at all....check my screenshot
I am trying to make regular icons smaller....they are still to big even with 5x6
