Please help me - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I found out that I could use direction lock and decided to try it out... I did a circle, but now I can't repeat it and to change the lock screen security type I need to know the combination of swipes :crying: I thought that with the PIN it was enough, but it isn't (the phone prompts me to draw the pattern every time).
My device is an SM-N920C running the latest Marshmallow update (Samsung original, not rooted).
PLEASE HELP ME!!

[Q] Screen tapping in wrong position

Hello,
I've installed latest stock HTC rom and got problem... seems that screen tapping does not work correctly... exactly first touch of screen is displaced (to the right, like 1cm!). For example when trying to make a vertical line in notes (starting from the bottom) i'm always getting "L" letter... more or less, but its still "L"... its really annoying and device is unusable because of it... any ideas whats the problem?
Best regards,

Wakeup / lock without any button

Hi, my question is there any app that will lock and unlock the screen without touching any physical button, just like another phone i saw (can't remember which one) can detect screen interactions even when the screen is locked, two taps on the screen and it shows the lock screen, some widget to turn it off again.
I know that you'll tell me google, but that research led me to a software that messed up the phone, and had to reset the device, please understand that i post here just to have an information from someone who had experienced an app that can do those things, and if there isn't just say so.
Thanks in advance.

Lock Screen Fingerprint Unlock

I have my lock screen set for fingerprint. If the device is shutdown or restarted, the lockscreen asks for a fingerprint. After that if the power button is pressed to shut off and lock the screen, the next time it is turned on the lockscreen asks for just a swipe. It wont ask for a fingerpring again until the system is restarted again. Anyone else have this problem? Solutions?
You have to go into settings and set the power button to lock device. Or you can change the settings to lock device after a certain period of time.
It's under Lockscreen/Secure Lock Settings

You can also set it to not lock if it's connected to a certain device, like a Bluetooth.
This is a god sent because it's always been a pain to unlock the phone in a car after it's gone to sleep and you are streaming music from it.
Thanks! That was driving me crazy. I knew it was there, but couldn't find it.
I know what you mean! It was confusing the heck out of me in the beginning but then caught on.
How do one wish to switch back to just a simple swipe after choosing fingerprint unlock
The SWIPE option is now greyed out ??

Touch screen problem on specific area

Since that is a weird issue & after searching a lot of times i don't get a proper solution, i think that is the time to post it.
Touch not working on top notification bar & bottom menu(home, back) bar when device is unlocked. But that is working perfectly when device is locked(on lock-screen).
I already test screen by Xperia Diagnostics, every area of screen working fine.
So, of course that is not a Hardware issue. I already tried with Downgrading to kitkat but that doesn't help.
Thanks in advance

I have a similar problem on all firmwares. When device boots, after I enter the pin, touch screen becomes unresponsive up on the notification bar. Locking and unlocking the device brings it back and it never happens again until next reboot. What is this?

Galaxy m31 fingerprint isn't working after a period of inactivity.

Why my galaxy m31 fingerprint unlock wont work after a period of inactivity?? It only works when i wake up the screen by pressing lock key or by double tapping the screen,after waking up the screen the fingerprint unlock works flawlessly! It's my new phone and my 1st samsung phone, having a BAD BAD experience for this issue. I've never faced such issue with any other phones even on much low end phones that i used in my life.
I'm tired of surfing the web for the solution and hopping on forum to forum but of no use, can anybody help me out here?? I'm hopeless. Please help me out!
