[Q] Galaxy Note 5 SMS pop up - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
Small issue. My galaxy note 5 as of yesterday would work ok. When I get a text that little window would appear and show a portion of the text and what it said. This morning I get texts and it shows up top in the notification screen but not the pop up like it use to. I have went into settings turned off tested back on tested. Restarted phone, powered off phone with the same result. Any ideas.

Help: Problems

Just recently my phone has started acting up. I can't get into my text messages from the home screen. I touch the screen, it reads that I touched the screen because the message pushes down then up but it won't go into the message
Also, When a phone call is coming in it won't show me who's calling. Whichever screen it was on before going into standby is the one that pops up and once I answer it shows who is calling.
Any ideas?

[Q] Screen lock not working properly

Hello everyone
so I got my lg optimus 4x hd a couple of weeks ago and I've been experiencing an issue with the lockscreen. Here is the problem: When I press the top button to unlock my phone I get the lockscreen, but in the background the phone already starts up the app that i was running when I locked the phone.
For instance: I was having a conversation on whatsapp and I locked my phone(with the chat open). I get a message so I get a notification sound and of course an icon in the top left corner of the phone. NOW: when I press the top button the notification icon is supposed to stay there until I completely unlock my phone. However the phone starts up whatsapp, opens the chat, reads the message and makes the icon go away BEFORE I fully unlocked my phone by swiping across the screen.
I hope this isn't too much of a bother but can anyone check if this also happens on their 4x hd's?
thanks in advance

settings tab view and s-pen alerts not working

Dear friends,kindly guide me to find 'tab' view of settings on my Note 5 SM-N9208,
Eventhough,I've switched S-pen alerts ON,I'm not getting any message or sound alert if the S-pen is kept out for a long time and the screen is switched off!
Different models of the phone have either a List View or Tab View for settings, and it seems like there's no way to switch it.
For the S-Pen, the alert you should get is, if you have the pen out the phone and you walk away without it, then the phone will alert you telling you're leaving the S-Pen behind.

Floating Icon For S-Pen Randomly Showing Up

I have this setting turned off. It's been off since the day I got the phone in the mail but suddenly I'm starting to see the floating icon pop up. It's random. It doesn't happen when I pull the S-Pen out but I'll just have my S-Pen sitting next to my phone (outside the phone) on my office desk like I usually do, then I'll start using an app and suddenly I see the floating icon pop its head. I'll touch it then touch away from it on the screen and it disappears.
But it's randomly reappearing. Different apps, different times during the day. I've restarted the phone and clean cache here and there and it still doing it. So weird. Has anyone else seen this on their phone?
EDIT: I attached a pic I just now took with my S8 Plus to show you what I'm talking about. I'm in the S-Pen settings and you can clearly see the option for the floating icon is set to OFF yet it's still there on the side and you can see my S-Pen chilling next to the phone on my desk. I touched the icon, then touched away from the screen and it disappeared. I locked the screen, waited a few seconds, turned the screen back on and the floating icon reappeared.
Something is funky. I have no idea what's causing this.
I have a cheap Chinese-made leather case with poorly placed magnets that causes this behavior. It became so annoying that I stopped using the case (and the problem went away). Perhaps your problem may be a nearby magnetic field too.
I think the Note 8 is having some teething problems. I want that icon on my front page and have it turned on in the settings but it only shows when it feels like it? I suspect Samsung will address this situation when it updates the Note 8?

Using Message+ with S10

Just upgraded from S6 to S10, got all my setting changed except 1. I use Message+ for texting. With the S6, when the phone was idle and a text came in, it made a sound and popped up on the screen and stayed there for a long time. I got it to where it pops up on the the S10, but it only stays for a few seconds. What setting am I missing to make the preview stay?
Why are you using Message+? Ugh...
