Hi friends. Just got this wonderful device and decided to unlock it.
After unlocking I'm not sure if it's me but there seems to be a delay in touching an icon and it activating. For example, I press the app drawer icon from Nova Launcher and it takes about a 0.5 second delay before it actually triggers and opens. Am I simply noticing a delay which was always there? The delay is also present when inputting the pin in the lock screen.
Also I am now unable to activate the mini screen feature that normally activates when I swipe to the soft nav buttons.
So two problems I've noticed since unlocking the bootloader. Will greatly appreciate any help. Thanks!
Update: OK the delay somehow disappeared. Response is pretty snappy right now. All I did was uninstall and install new apps
Update2: OK what; even the mini screen swiping on nav bar gesture works again. Not sure what happened but all issues have been resolved

Hi all ... I edited my dock and added the Gmail icon. It randomly disappears on me. It isn't consistent when this happens, eg. most re-boots it stays, sometimes its gone. Sometimes just looking at the phone part way thru the day and its gone. Any ideas?
Is there anyway to remove the swipe to unlock screen? I had a Vouge with Android ROMs and it was two presses of the power-on button to unlock. Much more convenient. Thanks in advance for any help on these!
It seems that if you change a dock icon to a 3rd party app, it won't stay. Anything installed originally in the phone will not disappear.
Can anyone confirm that motion sensors and motion guided commands do not work when you do NOT use Touch Wiz? I am using Nova Launcher and the hand swipe to screenshot does not work.
Also, I tested out the IR Remote control app which worked great but now even after i close the app, on my lock screen, the remote functions are still there.

It hasn't gone away since last night. I closed out, closed process etc, still just hangs around the lock screen. When i press the channel/volume buttons from the lock screen, the blue light shines showing that it is currently activated and on. I believe this is a possible bug. I'm worried it's draining my battery as well. Please help.
Bonus help: how do you change the background on the lock screen?

On the S4 there's a setting within the app where you can disable the lock screen and notification panel settings. You'd think that they should still be there on the S5. Open the app, go to the menu and check the settings there.

Yeah, that drove me nuts too when I first used the feature on my S4.....Hopefully getting the S5 and Gear Neo this weekend.
Swipe to screenshot works fine for me with Next Launcher 3D.

i figure swipe to capture out, your hand had to actually glide ON the screen. This whole time I thought it was an air motion that the sensors on the front caught. it isn't that at all but based on the hand touching the actual glass. I guess this is what happens for first time Samsung users... mods feel free to delete this thread.
SOLVED! I had the same issue (swipe screen grab not working) and tried everything with my Galaxy S6 after I installed Marshmallow and also Nova launcher for first time. Not sure which one caused it... Anyway, after going through a million "fixes" that didn't work, this one finally did!
- Go to your phone dialer and dial: *#2663#
- That will bring up a developer menu. Once you're in the menu press the button titled "TSP FW Update (General)". Let it got through the update (just a few seconds) and viola!!! You're swipe screen grab or any other touch screen weirdness work perfectly again!
Thanks . Solved even S pen problem on screen capture
This just started happening a couple of days ago. When I get a text message, no matter whether it's from 3rd party app or stock, my lock screen won't register touch. It takes me a while to swipe to unlock. I have been hitting the home button a lot and sometimes it will unlock long enough for me to dismiss the text popup before it locks again. But once I dismiss the popup I can unlock just fine.
I am rooted and have several xposed apps running, but nothing that should affect the touch.
I can send a logcat if anyone is willing to help.
Does it do it on all the lockscreen options, swipe, pin, pattern etc.?
If you use Titanium Backup I would start with Xposed Framework and modules and freeze all your root apps one by one until you figure out whether or not an app is causing the problem. Once that's determined it will be easier to figure out the next action to take.
It does it on swipe for sure. Haven't tried it on pin or pattern. But I will test it out.
Did you get it sorted out?
Hi, I've had this issue for a while where apps seem to freeze up after locking and then unlocking the phone. So, for an example, let's say I am using the firefox browser app, and then I turn off the screen with the power button. Wait about 15-30 seconds, and then when I turn the screen back on it will be frozen on whatever I was viewing before.
What's weird is that the app appears to still be active, only the screen acts frozen. I know this because I have figured out that if I tap the recents key, and then tap the app I was just using, it refreshes/unfreezes the app to where I can use it again. I have tried scrolling when the screen is frozen, and when I use the recents key to unfreeze it, it will be further down the page. Sometimes, when the app freezes, the content section will be completely black until I do the refresh trick.
More information:
-If I lock and then unlock the phone immediately, it doesn't get frozen. It's only after about 10 seconds that it does this.
-I am not using a lock screen/password. If I have the option set to 'swipe' or any of the other variants, the problem does not seem to happen.
-I think this behavior may have started after the Android 9 update.
-Other functions on the phone work perfectly fine (I can still access the notification menu etc.)
I just viewed a post called 'frozen screen after waking up screen' that is the exact same issue I am having, but there doesn't appear to have been a solution yet so I'm bringing it back up if that's ok. Thanks for any help.
Thought I'd start this up for anyone having issues. So far:
I've had the UI hang while trying to swipe up to go home.
I had the navigation bar become stuck in the middle of the screen.
The screen recorder doesn't work properly. Records audio but video only shows a background image that not on the screen. After I drop recording the status bar on top disappears in the home screen.
Anyone else having this issues or other issues?
Keyboard won't open using chat bubble on messages app
My only issue had been trying to trigger the back gesture or menu from the left side which could be a result of the new screen protector I put on, or just Google's garbage gesture implementation.

interesting... I'm having issues with Gboard not opening up at all most of the time with chat bubbles disabled. only sure way for me to get the keyboard back is to lock the device, bring up the keyboard trying to unlock and then the keyboard will show up in the current app.
I tried rooting using the latest magisk and phone does not boot past the bootloader. using 7.5.1 of Magisk.
The screenshot button is greyed out when using 3-button navigation. Works with gesture navigation.
This is all that records. *Edit*Nevermind doesn't upload

UI is not hanging for me but it keeps forgetting that I have Action Launcher as my default and kicking me back to Pixel Launcher when I swipe up to go home. It remembers after a reboot.

I don't have the option to bubble chat( don't see the icon on the notification bar) is activated for all chats but is not working for me.
Bubbles open for me, but 1) the nav bar for some reason shows up at the bottom of the pop up, and 2) it hangs, and doesn't allow interaction. As well, if auto-rotate is off, the nav bar will not always follow rotation, at times getting stuck on the bottom of the device, as well as constantly being visible, even on the always on display.
When I restart the phone I get a new voicemail notification every time even though I don't have any. This has happened on the BETA too

Yeah my bubbles pop up but I can't get gboard to open. It either tells me gboard stopped working out nothing happens at all.
I performed a clean install from August Android 10 to September Android 11 update and I have not been able to get my face unlock to work. Anyone else having this issue. If so have you been able to find a fix for it.
