Hello. I am on my second s6 edge from sprint. It the update what is causing the screen rotation issue or is it safe to update? Trying to avoid a third s6. If it is the update is there a way to turn off notifications of updates? Tired of seeing it on lock screen. Thank you for the help!

I have a Sprint Samsung Galaxy S3 that I recently did the upgrade to 4.3 on and I can't stand it. I have no idea how to root a phone and all the help I see is for that phone with 4.2 or older versions. Could any one help me out with some instructions on how to root my phone and get the official Sprint 4.2 version back?
Unfortunately, because of the KNOX bootloader even if you were rooted you would not be able to downgrade. As of right now you are stuck on 4.3. Just out of curiosity, what is it that you don't like about the update?

The message notification on the lock screen, the clock is no longer centered on the lock screen, I can no longer swipe down to unlock my screen, if the music app is open and my screen locks, it puts the app on my lock screen, all of my contacts now have a big goofy looking face attached to it, my lock screen looks like I touched it everytime I hit the button to bring the screen up (though I didn't), the settings screen has been reorganized and its now hard to use, the EQ is now harder to use as it is not in the same spot. I almost want to damage the phone so I can get a new one.
I can agree with most of those gripes. Especially the picture for the contacts. I don't really like the placement of the music player widget on the lock screen. I think you can turn those off by unchecking 'display multiple widgets' under lockscreen settings.
My wife has a VZW M8 and she just installed the new update. She is frustrated that there is no option to go directly to the pattern unlock upon waking up the screen. Is there a way to go right to the pattern unlock instead of having to swipe up then do the pattern? Thanks.

Hey all,
Just updated to 8.0 with the OTA update, and now I am having some slight issues. I've been receiving all notificaitons just fine, however I am unable to expand them while on the lockscreen. Is this some sort of new security feature that has to be disabled? I am not currently using a PIN/Passcode/ Or any other lockscreen security.
Has anyone else been having this issue?
I am in the US with model BDN-L24, build number: 8.0.0.330(C567)
Thanks!

I noticed that right away on my Mate SE...Not sure if that's just the Huawei way, or what. May want to check other EMUI 8.0 devices and see if it's consistent.

Looks like the P20 is having the same issues.

I'm in Germany and I have the same problem since I upated my phone. Pretty annoying tbh.
I just update my Huawei P8 Lite 2017 to Android 8.0 and EMUI 8.0 and I can't expand notifications on locked screen
Had the same issue on EMUI 8.
A custom ROM fixed it for me.
Got it to work on Huawei View10
I use my phone with both fingerprint and face unlock and tested working on Huawei View10 with latest update build 8..1.0.133, You can enable full message content on lock screen by going to phone settings > security & Privacy > Face Unlock > and disable "smart lock screen notification". These seem to be a bad description on Huawei part because you would think this turns off notifications on lock screen but it only limits the content on lock screen for security purposes. The only time i need to expand my messages on lock screen is when phone is sitting on desk and i don't want to lift the phone to unlock it in order to read my notification. Lock screen notification can be set for apps separately. Hope this helps. Regardless if i lift my phone face unlocked automatically unlocks the phone and i go to notifications.
