I've never seen this icon until I installed then Uninstalled Edgetouch by Good Lock. Anybody knows how to get rid of this annoyance?
Did you set edge touch to optimized setting before uninstalling?
I don't think that's even part of that app.
I just ditch it, no issues.
Try in safe mode.
Try clearing system cache.

Yes I set it back to optimize before I uninstalled. I'll try Safemode.
No luck after safe mode and clearing system cache. I used the phone for a full week without a case and never saw this icon until I installed edgetouch. It happens every time my palm touches the screen while using without a case. Palm touches without a case are unavoidable with the S20 ultra

Thank you.
For reminding me of this apk.
I had forgotten it was running and with the case I use it's not needed. The bloody thing was causing edge zone cut/paste issues.
I had been blaming One Handed Operation + for that issue. Fixed
I don't think this apk is causing your issue though. Try reinstalling it and see if any change ocures. It's definitely a 3rd party apk though.
Sometimes poorly written apps will alter hidden settings. Never seen one do something like this though; I think it's a currently running app on your system. If safe mode removes it, there's no doubt.
If a system app it may be a bugger to find.
I look at the app cache (Device Care) after clearing it to see what loads first and/or when the icon first appears. I also use Package Disabler to troubleshoot this kind of issue; disable the offending apk, it will disappear.
I would not do a factory reset as it will likely reoccur unless you ID the root cause.
Play with it... sometimes it takes a while but the answer will eventually turn up
Note: always use a good case. These phones will get severely damaged eventually otherwise.
They are corner hitting, face planting happy devices. I use the Zizo Bolt on my Note 10+, it has provided excellent protection. The kickstand tends to break but that's it's only weakness.

I feel like such a noob. That was my edge panel handle that mysteriously got moved to the bottom of the screen lol. Could have happened when I was trying different resolutions and DPIs.
I take my case off only at home. The S20 ULTRA is already a big device and the added bulk of a case can become uncomfortable very quick. I've not cracked a phone screen since the S6 edge and I've carried caseless about 90 percent of the time. As heavy as this thing is I know one drop on concrete and it's over the screen

Sorry I didn't even think of that little bugger. I did the same thing over a year ago and drove me nuts too.

Hi guys
Who else thinks that planning of making calls in WP7,
is very annoying to click a button (marked in red picture) to open a menu specially Speaker
What do you think?

For over 3 months this never annoyed me honestly.
Hasn't annoyed me yet either but i just got my phone this week. I was thinking of a better way they could have done it but all of my ideas have pluses and minus just the same so guess we got what we got.
No issues here... has worked fine for those time when I need to speaker phone it or use the keypad.
not annoying. it's a minimal design, so why have those options always display if you don't always need them?
Not happening here
I don't use speaker as much so it's no biggie, nor do I often use the keypad during a call, though I do sometimes. But overall it isn't THAT annoying, just a little.
I use the speaker about 50% if the time and I whole heartedly 100% agree with the OP. Its a pain to have to hit that little button every time
it doesn't ruin the whole experience for me, but it is pretty annoying.
<3 hTc
If I want something from the menu, it's not too much hassle to have to click, and what's even better is that thanks to hTc's Attentive Phone app if i want the speakerphone, i just put the phone face down on a surface and the speaker automatically activates. Simples.

Agree. I think that's actually a pretty good design, however I find it clunky. The buttons should be at the bottom, and I do think some obvious functionality like speaker phone should not require you to click twice. That's just my opinion.
TBQH, I much prefer the Galaxy S (Vibrant) dialer interface. It makes more sense.
But there isn't much wrong with this...
There is a point where you can take minimalist so far that it actually starts to impede on usability. This is one of those cases, IMO.
No problems for me either. I actually dig it because it allows you to tap the screen and perform tasks in the background. Alternatively, it allows you to look at whatever screen you were looking at before the call was made or received. e.g. you went into a specific profile under People, you're still able to see their contact info such as email if you were to email something to that person.
Even if those soft keys were available immediately when the call became active you'd still have to do some kind of multi-step process to accomplish some other task you wanted to do on your phone.
Frankly, I'd rather have the information I was looking at prior to when the call came or when I initiated the call, still immediately available to me. All in all seems pretty efficient to me for viewing information.

The dialer app multi tasks. There no excuse for hiding 4 options under a button - none whatsoever. You can simply home out of it and look at the entire page, or even use your data connection unless you're unfortunate and have a CDMA phone...

So you'd rather have the dial pad hidden instead? Or is everything going to be placed out in the forefront? There's only so much screen space, though I guess it could work. I'm looking at the Galaxy S and it looks ugly as ****. Screw that mess, I'd rather have the stuff I was looking at available for viewing in the background then a damn num pad.

It's not shown by default for the same reason battery and signal aren't shown on the start screen. Much cleaner look without the buttons showing. No need to always have them showing.

Well obviously he has to state it like that or no one would be able to replicate the issue and believe him. Seems like you have better ideas as to how to do it, mind sharing?
I dont see the big deal, if someone steals your phone and cant access it, they will just do a factory reset and you will lose any chance of tracing and recovering your phone or remote wiping it.

If it was me, I'd send Samsung a message about it. If that was the video poster's intent, he could've went about informing Samsung another way. People that find lost GS3s will definitely find this now. I know somebody who's found an ipod that had a PIN on it and the first thing they did was google how to crack it.
Still, this video also serves a purpose to inform those who can fall victim to this. It's a hit or miss. Samsung definitely is aware of the issue now, though.
Of course any exploit is a problem, but put it in perspective.
First, the criminal has to have physical access to your phone. This in itself makes it much less worrisome than most software hacks that you can download.
Second, according to Engadget:
"Despite literally hundreds of attempts in front of the lens and several more behind it, we've only managed it once -- we found it impossible to nail down the correct timing between the home and power button pushes."
and also from Engadget:
" Samsung has responded, confirming a fix is indeed on its way:
"Samsung considers user privacy and the security of user data its top priority. We are aware of this issue and will release a fix at the earliest possibility."
http://www.engadget.com/2013/03/06/galaxy-s-iii-bug-disables-lock-screen/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+weblogsinc%2Fengadget+%28Engadget%29
So, the blogs stir up a frenzy, make some money on click-thrus, and it gets fixed.
Nothing to see here,
Temporary Fix (Makes it much harder to exploit)
Temporary fix:
1) Download another launcher like "Go Launcher". Set it as default.
2) Download and install another lock screen like the "Go Locker" and set it up.
:good:
The problem is Samsung's Touchwiz launcher, getting another launcher is the only thing we can do until we get a fix from Samsung. This exploit takes about 5 minutes every time if you sit and get good at doing it. Dont kid yourself, this is very easy to reproduce.
In theory installing another launcher will make doing this much harder to do but will not completely eliminate the chances of getting exploited. This is because the touchwiz launcher still rears its ugly head when you reboot your phone. But if the attacker cant exploit your phone by the time the new launcher is loaded in the background then they have to restart your phone and try all over again.
I'll test it tomorow.hii
I found it simple to repeat. It took me 5 tries to get it. I am not that concerned about it but my work probably would be...

Tried this with multiple scenarios and activating "with swipe lock" in addition to password or pin will prevent it from working because the swipe lock will always come up even if you're seeing the home screen.

Nah, "with swipe lock" in addition to password or pin doesnt change anything. My friend can still break in within 5 minutes. Then he laughs at me. the only thing that shut him up was changing the launcher and lock screen to something other than touchwiz. :highfive:
I tried on my Sprint S3 and I couldn't re produce the exploit can somebody be more speciffic on how to do it exactly with the button combo. So I can try again.

I am coming from Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 and I have installed many apps with no issues. When I moved to Note 3, the same apps that were running just fine in the Nexus 5 and 7 start to have problem:
- Apps opened up, perform certain activity, crashed
- Apps opened up, vertical and horizontal scrolling is really laggy
These apps are like Pocket Informant (calendar app), Pocket Money (financial app), and Shiprack (package tracking), just to name a few.
Seeing all these apps functions well in the Nexus series, the problem seems to point to something within the Note 3.
I am rooted, stock, Knox is NOT tripped. I turned off all animation (0) in the Developer settings. I frozen some built-in apps (see below). Is there anything in Note 3 that I need to UNFROZE or anything I need to do to fix this problem? It's kinda hard to like the Note 3 when the same apps that works well in other phone just quit working...

You froze over 70 apps off the stock ROM? I have at most 20 and don't have the issues you are having. Guess you froze something that is needed.

Yeah, many of these are widgets, or things like Google+, which I froze in my old Nexus phone and tablet with no issue.
I scrutinized each app that I froze to figure out what are its function to make sure it won't cause problem. But it seems something is tied with TouchWiz or vice versa. For example, if i turned off animation, rearranging apps in folder sometimes crash TouchWiz, which is bizarre by itself.
Do you mind letting me know which apps did you freeze? Screenshot is appreciated.

Anyways, I can see it from my desktop. Looks like you use many of Samsung apps (Cloud, Backup, Group Play, etc.) since those were not frozen.

How about battery life? Don't those stuff keeps running in the background?
If I do a hard reset, will:
- all frozen apps are unfrozen?
- all xposed module uninstalled and system settings like battery icon reverted back?
I am rooted, stock with no KNOX trip
I may have to do this to fix the issues I am having.

Just unfreeze everything. Just remember, Nexus means pure AOSP. Samsung means TouchWiz, which has a ton of things needed to run "correctly."

Just because something is running in background doesn't mean it is using the battery. This phone has lot of memory compared with most so for the most part it doesn't really matter.
Things that use the battery a lot are apps that use the Radio, actively use GPS and bluetooth being on. I only have BT on when I am using it in the truck. I always have GPS on because I don't use many apps that actively use it (Google maps uses it when you are navigating or have it active on the screen, but stops using it when you put it in the background).
Battery life is really in hands of the user and how they use their phone and what apps they choose to use.
For me, I get typical 15hrs of life in my phone (that would be down to the 20's% area) which is more than adequate for me.
I don't have time to play games and my phone is required for business so if the phone doesn't ring when someone calls, notify me when a page comes in or I cant make a call when I need to or access data that I need to access, it is useless to me.
As a result, I don't load different roms, play with kernals and do a lot of tweaking because that typically ends up with something not working.
I do have the ability to quick charge my phone at just about every where I go. So if I know I am going somewhere where I will be hanging out for a long time, I can do a quick charge to make sure I can do it. My truck, each computer station at work and home has 2amp charging available which charges as quick as the original charger that comes with the phone. I rarely need to do that however.
When I rooted for 4.4.2 I blew the Knox flag. No longer cared. At one time I thought I might need it for work but that is not going to be the case and I am confident that if I have a real hardware issue it will be covered with the coverage that I have on the phone.

Yeah, I have done that, but some issues still happen, namely the apps that I use. It could be just the apps, but I am trying to narrow down the problem.
I have used Samsung phone before (Galaxy Note 1 and S4 Active) and even HTC phone. Freezing built-in apps never caused this kind of issue (3rd party apps from Google Play crashed), as long as I don't freeze those I know is essential (for example, I won't freeze "Phone" or "Touchwiz"). If you see from my screenshot above, although I freeze a lot of apps, most are widgets and apps like Google Music, etc.
However, It seems that with Note 3, Samsung make Touchwiz more integrated.
[UPDATE]
Unfreezing ALL the apps I previously froze did not fix the problem. I rebooted, pull the battery, etc.
So I did a hard reset and...lo and behold, all the issues I had disappeared - the apps downloaded from Google Play no longer crashing or have scrolling lag.
There must be something in Touchwiz that "hooks" to these 3rd party apps, though I don't know what it is. It is quite interesting that Samsung will do this (first Knox, now this?), when I didn't have this problem with previous Samsung phone when I installed the SAME EXACT apps and Xposed module.
I will try to freeze the built-in app one-by-one and see if there is any issue there.
Hello,
I have a small problem with black border around the display. Sometimes I dont have some black pixels in one line at the right bottom corner. It is ok after restart or after turn off (to always on) display.
Pixels aren't dead, they are correctly working so it's probably a SW bug. I know about one or two next devices with the same problem.
Do you know how to repair this? I tried factory reset and many display settings and it is the same but it doesn't work. A simple solution would be to set a frame 1px larger. Is it possible, for example, with ADB?
It is S20 5G (SM-981B/DS), here is the photo:

Look through your apps which need access to drawing on the display or something like that. I don't think that is a bug with one UI. Try disabling all "draw over screen" apps you have and look if the problem still persists.

I can see the bug after factory reset. The device has only default apps at this time. I tried to disable special permission for all apps and it is the same.
See if it happens in safe mode.

Could even be a bug in that firmware version.

Interesting. I would blow it off as it's on the firmware or the original software load.
-or-
If you look at the loaded app cache* after a reboot before it appears then wait until it appears then check the cache for newer apks; it's one of those.
Likewise when does it appear; a fixed amount of time or after a specific action?
It may be an apk on the autostart menu that's down on the priority list.
The app Autostarts might be helpful in giving clues.
* Developer options>running processes (or cache apps) may be helpful although it may not show up there. The cache processes is more likely to pigeon hole it.
Device Care>Memory is an easy way to see what apks are cached. If you clear it and it happens afterwards you can easily see what apks were just cached.
PD MDM package disabler can be used to block a suspect package or clear it's data or cache.
It can completely clear the data, App Settings can not.
Apparently the latter leaves behind nulls or something that can still corrupt the data.
PD MDM is powerful tool useful for cleaning up messes but use it carefully...

Apparently the latter leaves behind nulls or something that can still corrupt the data.
PD MDM is powerful tool useful for cleaning up messes but use it carefully...

Thanks for tips.
I haven't tried to stop all of the processes yet. There are a lot of them. I will finish it today.
If the bug isn´t shown, I can do anything or open all apps and it is still ok. Bug comes when I lock the screen and display goes to turn off. When I unlock the phone, one time it is ok, second not and still around...
Bug doesn´t show spontaneously during using phone - bug still precedes lock screen.
I received a new update of the system now and it looks like a fix of my problem. I tried all possibilities and bug doesn't show yet

Since I bought the phone, the reminder subfunction of the Google calendar app doesn't work. I get reminded of events but not of reminders that I add. Other users jave reported it as well, but we haven't found a solution.
OnePlus support recommended this
"Please try reset options this will not erase data. If you only want to clear app data and restore your device to factory settings without losing the data stored in the internal storage, choose the Reset all settings option in the Reset phone menu instead of the Erase all data option."
With a perfectly working daily driver phone that's rooted and otherwise working fine, should I follow their suggestion?
Does root get wiped? Will I have to reinstall my apps?
Thanks
Try clearing just that apps data. Maybe use another calendar app if that doesn't work.
Google apps are a pain. Constant firmware and software upgrades/updates just mean more of your time spent trying to learn and troubleshoot them. Gookill is a mess.

Yup, did that, but I'll do it again. The app worked perfectly on my op7pro prior to this phone.

If you can uninstall then reinstall it try that. Check it's permissions and if it's able to run in the background. A Google search may give you more solutions; doesn't have to be that model or even brand as the same issues tend to happen on many different Androids.
If that's the only problem I would find another app to replace it. Not worth screwing up a good load over one insignificant app.
I use as little Google apps as possible. I use the native Samsung calendar instead. I use Gmail and Gmaps but Gmaps is a mess.

I tried to uninstall it but I was unable to. I couldn't even use titanium back to remove it for some reason. I should be able to remove it that way, right.
You have a valid point about not reseting over 1 app. Thanks
Blackhawks fan? Or you like the helicopter?

Indian warrior actually.
"It has pleased the Great Spirit that I am here today— I have eaten with my white friends. The earth is our mother— we are now on it, with the Great spirit above us; it is good. I hope we are all friends here. A few winters ago I was fighting against you. I did wrong, perhaps, but that is past—it is buried—let it be forgotten.
Rock River was a beautiful country. I liked my towns, my cornfields and the home of my people. I fought for it. It is now yours. Keep it as we did— it will produce you good crops.
I thank the Great Spirit that I am now friendly with my white brethren. We are here together, we have eaten together; we are friends; it is his wish and mine. I thank you for your friendship.
I was once a great warrior; I am now poor. Keokuk has been the cause of my present situation; but I do not attach blame to him. I am now old. I have looked upon the Mississippi since I have been a child. I love the great river. I have dwelt upon its banks from the time I was an infant. I look upon it now. I shake hands with you, and as it is my wish, I hope you are my friends.

This is what I get when I try to uninstall it using titanium backup.
That's interesting as it's not even present on my Samsung. With root permissions I would think you could uninstall it. However it may have dependencies.
Again I would bypass it by using another calendar app to replace it.
