I can't change the colors assigned to my People Edge contacts. I know how, but when I change it, it keeps reverting back to the previous settings. I also can't completely clear my contacts and start over. When I delete them from the People Edge settings, the first four retain the contacts even when I delete them, only the fifth one clears. Has anyone seen this or have ideas how to correct it? I'm really hoping not to have to factory reset my phone!

I guess it was only me seeing this. Anyway, if anyone does come across it, I did not have to do a factory reset. I did have to do a settings reset, and afterward I was able to delete and swap the contacts in my People Edge app without issue.
How did you do a settings reset?? (tmobile)
Hey man, I am having a similar issue.
I deleted all my (5 people) but one wont delete. And now, I cant change the colors. It is all out of wack.
So how did you do the settings reset exactly?
Cheers,
AA

Hey folks
I'm having trouble setting up my Nexus 6 as a new device.
I am on the developer preview 3 and I have tried both logging out of my google account and factory resetting. I have also reflashed the preview that that would work.
However all I can do is restore from a backup but I want to setup as a new device. I can select it from the drop down menu which is weird but it won't allow me to select done.
Is this some sort of Android 6.0 feature?
Thanks for any help.

You need to remove your Google account before Factory Reset. That feature is in place since 5.1.
I thought that And have tried that but it still doesn't work.

Turn your phone so it is in landscape then hit done

Haha that's on the list of things I've tried thinking I'd finally outfoxed it but that didn't work either.
I've logged into my google account and deleted all my previous backups but they still show up. Arrrghhhh

Not trying to be smart or say you didn't do it right, but I had the same issue several times and always just needed to turn to landscape and then hit the button. Just doesn't detect or something in portrait. I'd try again and just tap around in that area.

Maybe tonight, now that Snapchat is working on M again I'll probably be going back. Not sure if it's an M issue, but happens every time for me on JDX 3, little arrow button does nothing in portrait, but works in landscape; not sure how I can show it but I'll try

No not at all thanks for the suggestion. It doesn't work in landscape either.
Witek_m I have followed the guide and it still doesn't work. Thanks for the info though.
Yeah it's not really something you can screenshot because the button is there it's just not clickable.

I've had that happen after flashing roms/gapps a few times. What I eventually did was skip the sign in, and sign into my Google account after the initial setup.

Same here...but never tried the landscape suggestion. I'll try that next time
I know that you can put multiple accounts on the fire, but I have a problem. I added another account but it was the wrong one, so I removed it. Then I tried adding the right one again, now it says I have to wait 180 days. Is there any way to bypass this so that I can login another account?
Slightly drastic but I guess factory reset would do it.

Sure? No, not done it. Maybe it's just based on the accounts, but seems odd that they'd stop you putting things on a clean tablet.
Unless it's down to drm things with the accounts.
I've just starting having an issue with my stock Sprint Note 8. The notification panel/ edge panel and floating apps (specifically FB messenger chat heads) will close on their own. it's getting to the point of these apps not being usable. I've done all the basic diagnostics/app maintenance and reboots as well as reset all my settings to stock. this is a last ditch effort to figure something out before I factory reset. I think it's got to be an app not playing nice. The phone doesn't have this issue in safe mode. Just wondering if anyone else has seen or heard of this and if there is an easier fix than uninstalling apps or wiping my device

Notification panel will close on its own for me. Any 3rd party apps or themes or anything installed? Maybe noticed after installing something?

I was having the same issue but it was only doing it while not connected to Wi-Fi. So I started deleting apps that had to do with Wi-Fi and it worked lol.
Yeah... Thought it was gear 360, but it just started up again. I'll get rid of secure WiFi and see if that works. I didn't really see a connection with WiFi or no WiFi though. It's happening either way. Starting to wonder if it's a software issue

So far. I went 2 or 3 days after getting rid of the 360 app to though. Hopefully the issue is gone for good this time. I'll update if it returns

I redownload 360 and all is still working as it should. Is secure WiFi a Sprint app? Or Samsung.

you cannot rollback security updates.
I find it weird that I have deleted apps that themed stuff on my phone and some stuff is still themed. I have restarted my phone 10 times deleted every app that themes anything and still have stuff themed on my phone??. Guess I am going to have to reset my phone and do everything over again this is ridiculous

if it wont fit force it and if a screwdriver wont work use a hammer. means if it wont cooperate, fdr force master reset. Set it up as a NEW device and restore other apps at reinstall one by one until it works right again for you, else contact carrier about provisioning services again to make sure its not the network being a pain in the gass.
Hey guys please move if this thread is in the wrong place. I just picked up a galaxy note9 and I am getting advertisements after all incoming and outgoing phone calls. Is there a way to remove them? I will attach a screen shot...
Nevermind I cant figure out how to add a photo lol. Thanks for any replies.
Mike
Just do a factory reset. There should be no ads by default. You might have installed some app that you should not have or accepted some ads in an apps installation process. It is hard to know what is causing you to see ads without knowing what you have installed, but I'd suggest resetting phone to default and try making a call right after setting it up.
If you can identify the culprit then just uninstall the app. If not, worst case factory reset.
To Remove Ads after every Call
Remove the following app from your phone:
Easy Calendar.
Try a test call, it's gone.
