Samsung Edge - Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe

I was looking in settings > display > and there was an edge screen selection. When I click on it, it says edge stopped. Anyone manage to get into it? Maybe I'm too curious, haha.

I'm sure there shouldn't be that option on stock, were you ln hadesrom before? Maybe it remained cached

I found why. I had installed Edge Screen earlier but forgotten about it. After I uninstalled, it went away.

[Q] Strange vibration / haptic feedback problem

When using certain music apps (poweramp, stock sound player..) the vibration on the phone freaks out and just buzzes and pulses. I can't figure out what is causing it.
Please tell us some more information about the phone so we can help you.
For example, what ROM or Samsung touchwiz software are you on? Are you rooted?

I would try uninstalling all those music apps and then do some detective work and install each app one by one to see which app it is. Report back what you find out.

A shot in the dark here,,,,but go to /settings/sound/
Scroll to the bottom and disable "Auto Haptic" if it is enabled.

He shoots, he scores! So far that seems to have done the trick.

Right on right on.
Also.... it's not so obvious...but long pressing on that menu item/switch brings up a blacklist/whitelist to choose which apps will be affected by auto-haptic though I don't use it myself.

Yes I know but I need the original round clock back on lock screen that I had from the beginning, because I took it away, but now cannot find it anymore on widget list.
Hope you understand...

Very easy.
Just go into settings, and click on the "Display" tab then click on "Home screen" and click off "Smart Bulletin".
EDIT: Something must be wrong with my PC, I replied thinking no one helped you out, but it seems like the other posts just didn't show up for some reason. Not to mention i didn't realize this was a necro'd thread.

New firmware update for S6 Edge plus (side screen)

check in the settings of the side screen.
Looks like a minor update eh...
I don't get it?
Checked Galaxy Apps and the update was there. Didn't notice anything different. Maybe it fixed the night clock sync issue?
I noticed it was a bit quicker to scroll between people edge and app edge. I'm using the 928T
Sent from my SM-G928T using Tapatalk
I'm not sure but I think it adds "check missed messages/call" from your favorite contacts. I don't use the edge screen that much so not sure if that was already a feature
Has anyone else been having this issue? After the update, their is information on the apps edge on how to use it and stuff when you swipe open the Edge tab and it won't go away. This message wasn't their before..or am i just blind and haven't noticed before lol. Verizon variant here.
Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk
I noticed it also I hope they send a quick fix
This is a buggy update? Guess I'm not Gonna update this yet
The only change that I noticed so far is adding the setting button within the five contacts/apps

Think that always been there

I found removing an app from your selection and then putting it back cleared this.

Sorry guys but Eric is the only one right. I think the only change is the flip speed between slides

[TA-1043] Strange behavior trying to pull down status bar

While the phone is lying on a table or on bed, if you try pulling down the status bar, using just one finger without touching the sides of the phone, it just won't pull down, it would like block the touch for that even though it'd register touches for usual taps and swipes.
Even stranger behavior is while it won't be pulling down while it's lying on the table and the sides of the phone are not being touched, if you even slightly touch the side of the phone and then swipe down status bar, it'd work perfectly. That's one of the strangest things I've seen in a phone.
There's no issues while holding and using the phone btw.
Please answer back if you're facing the same issue or try replicating what I said with your device and report the behavior below, would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.
Can you make a video? If I understand your post right, it works fine on my device.
Not able to make a video atm as no other device is with me. Would love for other people to reply as well as I'm pretty sure it can't be my particular device's defect.
I've found people reporting very similar things for surface pro on this thread here if you wanna understand what I'm saying better

Here's a video from someone in the Nokia forums acknowledging the issue I reported and made a video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfSZwSFOQTI&feature=youtu.be
Thanks for the video, so, I did understand it right
I tried it again few times, and it works fine for me.

It happens with mine too. But not always lol....
Try turn off gestures?
Setting > System > Gestures > Swipe fingerprint for notifications.
I have not seen this, but you can set the fingerprint reader as a tiny touchpad which can be used to bring down the status bar.
