Gray/White square in the top left - why?

When I'm
- using Opera
- or lock the device
- using other programs
often there appears a little square in the top left and stays there, even after exit of e.g. Opera:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Where does it come from?
Anybody noticed something like this?
Thanks for helping!

I have that too, think its a couple of stuck pixels?

No, I'm using the original ROM.
Somestimes the square disappears for a while, then comes back, e.g. after launching opera, album view. Where does it come from?

I already asked for this.
The problem is: Finger Keyboard 2.1
The solution is very easy: you just need to set "show bar" on the option screen of FK to resolve this problem

Didn't find your question, sorry. Link would be nice
The problem is: Finger Keyboard 2.1

Indeed I'm using FK 2.1. Will try your solution and will give feedback here.
Questions:
1. Both bars in portrait and landscape mode?
2. Do the authors of FK know about this issue? Or should I tell them?
And : How did you get this solution - wouldn't have thought of FK for this issue ...
edit: Seems to work. Square disappears immediately after changing the option in FingerKeyboard. Will keep on watching ....
Thank you very much!
edit2: Alle questions are answered now by reading the FK-Thread . Thanks

If i remember correctly i found the solution in the Finger keyboard 2.1 thread, here in xda.
I don't remember who wrote it...i just searched for it when i had this problem and asked for a solution in this forum.
Glad you resolved this problem too

[Q] Auto Clicking

Hi Guys,
This issue has been really p*****g me off over the last two days... so, would reapply appreciate any help on this...
Yesterday or day before, I was just scrolling through the menus of the phone and decided to do a horizontal calibration (i've never done this since the getting the phone about two months back).
Settings > Display > Horizontal Calibration
And ever since I did the calibration, the screen has been really screwing up with me. Basically, what happens is that, a certain area of the screen gets automatically clicked!! This happens to a specific area of the screen. For example, when I get to the home screen from the app drawer, the widget that I normally have in this area gets clicked on for no apparent reason, and then I have to hit the back key to get back to the home screen. This happens about 5 times and then seems to go away for a while. However, it happens all over again when I use the phone after a little while.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
In the attached screen capture of my home screen, I have highlighted the area of the screen where this happens in red. This happens not only from the home screen, but from within any open app as well.... For example, when I view the "my apps" section in the Android Market app, the app that happens to be listed in the above area get automatically selected!!!
I have re-calibrated the screen, re-started the phone and the only thing I've left to do is a hard reset. I'm not too keen on doing this as I don't fancy having to re-install 70+ apps all over again!!
Have any of you guys encountered anything like this ?
Would really really appreciate any help on this as this is really flipping me over!!
Thanks in advance,
Cheers,

anyone......?
cmon, am I da first one on XDA to experience this issue?

[Q] Auto Clicking - Sorted
ah! no replied at all!!!
neways, finally got this sorted by having the screen replaced!! luckily the phone is still under warranty... otherwise it would hav cost me around 250$ to get it done apparently (according to the service center guy who did it)!!
tried hard resetting, data+cache wipe and even flashed with a different ROM (darky's).... but nothing worked.... so, finally took it to the service center... luckily those people didn't notice that the phone has been rooted and all that plus, got a gud rappo with one of the technicians over there, so got it back the next day as well....
cheers.....

Found a New Launcher

Have any of you guys used this NetFront Life launcher. I just downloaded it and it is pretty cool. You just have to figure out how to move the apps off the ring and place them. I got it figured out. If you need help.
The exact name from the market is NetFront Life Screen

No launcher shows in the market. Please post a link to see what the launcher is. Or take screen shots.

Sorry I am considered new and i can't post links in the forum. I will get the exact name. I am in the middle of a flash right now.

Ok the OP is edited with the name
NetFront Life Screen.
Google it for pictures.

I actually did see this a while back, but I constantly kept getting "app not found" errors. I even found it on app brain and using the QR code still didn't work. Found other apps by net life and looked at the developer page for more apps, and it didn't show up there either. I just searched again though and indeed, there it is. So if you can't find it, it's likely because of your market fingerprint.
I'm currently running Cognition 3.04 with the Market 2.3.2 (recently updated woo) and I can install it.

I downloaded this launcher and gave it a test run. All I can say is that it is not ready to be used daily as my default launcher. It's a cool concept, but can lag at times, and is a bit annoying when trying to cycle through apps in a hurry.

Its definitely an interesting concept but needs more options to customize it. For example, the space for the widget is a pre-set size....and you can't change the icons. Noticed it used around 45mb too

you can definitely change the icons:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
just grab the top half or so and scroll to the left page and there's a cube for apps. the only time I see this thing really lag is when going from the right page to the left page.

Just now tried. really looks good. But donno how to go to menu

I used to have this launcher, but I got rid of it because it became slow and it forced closed all the time.

Def a cool launcher, but I can't see myself using this as my default launcher. Maybe after some updates this thing will really take off

its a nice concepts but eats a lot of memory...lags a lot....

I like the UI but need more update for lag issue.

I'm on Tmobile. Don't have that screen. So maybe it's in the settings somewhere of your carrier?

Not on my Sprint variant.

Anyone has this problem or can suggest something? Anything? It's killing me.

You could start by providing more detailed information. What carrier? What third party apps do you have that relate to contacts/phone?

My phone is Verizon but I use it with T-Mobile. I've looked up all the apps that has access to my contacts and draw over apps and didn't find anything unusual.
I use truecaller but that one has it's own notification.
The picture I attached in my first post shows what is really bothering me

I have Verizon and don't get this

Well finally after a lot of research and tracking apps I finally found what app it is. It's call (efing) reminder app. That is a part of bixby I guess.

Flashlight
Plagued me for 2 weeks and removed apps one by one. As others suspected, it was a flashlight app. It's gone now. App has an icon that several apps use, so I don't remember precisely which one. Not going to reinstall one to be sure. Light House Inc has this icon.

Its App Backup and restore. Uninstall that and the annoying after phone call popups are gone

Had same problem. After uninstalling app backup and restore, everything fine.

I also had same problem but solved it by uninstalling "Bestie".
I also double checked it again after installing and uninstalling again.
Hope it helps.

App backup & restore fix
Hey everybody. I came across this thread when I was trying to fix this issue on my phone. I saw that nopers said if you uninstall the app it will go away which I'm sure would definitely work. I wanted to keep the app tho so this is what I did:
Settings>Applications>App backup and restore>Permissions>slide phone and SMS off
This worked for me on Samsung Galaxy S7 so hope that helps anyone looking for a solution.

Internet cuts for some apps randomly

Hi everyone
I have a weird problem, when I'm using my phone and let's say on Instagram sometimes when i refresh the feed it's just doesn't.. i doesn't say you don't have internet connection it just won't load the new posts and keeps the loading indicator rotating
Another app is Spotify when it's randomly playing songs that haven't being played before (not cached) it's stops suddenly of loading the next song and resumes after a couple of minutes
Same problem with tinder not loading the incoming messages
Only can be solved by disconnecting and reconnecting WIFI or using cellular data
My phone is fully stock with the least official update
I've checked:
Background restrictions.
When Spotify or Instagram stuck I swhich to another app say YouTube and it's perfectly working and loading, going back to Instagram and it's still stuck and not loading.
WiFi router is not far away from me so the Signal is strong.
Do you have any idea how can I solve this without resetting the phone ?
Thanks

Did it start with csd1 update?

Thanks for the reply
I actually don't remember but here's the version I'm on now
Current version: N960FXXS2CSBA/N960FOXM2CSA2/N960FXXU2CRLT

Having same issue. One UI. Has been an issue since latest update.

In Android Pie v9.0 in app settings you can turn off battery optimization and it should prevent the app from being put to sleep. Maybe this may help. Or if wifi data saver is turned on this can cause issues also. There is one other menu/screen that allows you to change settings of when/why/which apps and how they are controlled by Android to save power and allows apps to be put to sleep after a certain amount of app unused time, or when it predicts that you are not normally using a particular app at a particular time. I cant seem to recall where I saw it or how I got to it but if I track it down I'll be sure to post the info because I think it may be a likely cause or fix for your issue. Only other thing I could figure it could be the modem firmware that your on is buggy and hopefully it will be fixed in a future update.

Here is what I was looking for. You go to settings>device care>tap on battery>tap three dots top right>tap settings. In there is some stuff that may help with your issue.

Thanks for the reply, I've actually already done that I've disabled all the settings related with putting apps to sleep at device care/battery which doesn't solve the issue
Yet i still have to try un-optimizing the apps surly this would lead to battery drain but let's see what happens.
I'll keep you updated with the results

So I have disabled all of power efficiency related settings in device care/battery section
And also disabled doze optimization for the effected
İ can say it's a lot better now but the issue still occurs
