Live messeges window size became small - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

I'm having an issue of Samsung live messeges as the window size became small, too small and I don't know how that happened or how to bring it back to normal size.
Can anyone help with that, please?

Try not using a launcher and see if it works normally again.

Nope, still the same size

Did you get this fixed?

Try to clear the live messages app data in
settings > apps > live messages > storage > clear data
Maybe it might help... Beware, you are deleting you app data for the live messages app.

New Update is here! Here is how to force pull an OTA update

go to settings, more, application manager, all, and clear data, then stop services for google services framework....then go into system update and update samsung software...... you may have to do that up to 10x with a few restarts in between
also you need to at least have 35% battery
works everytime for me!
if you notice after you clear data and go to system update, it shows that it last checked i 1969......this somehow resets the que and puts you in front of the line
Although this update fixed my red hues during black backgrounds, it added the purple blur/smearing thing when scrolling though quickly...at least we know its a software problem and not hardware
Ok...
I'm going to put this here as I did in the 2 other ota threads.. would someone please grab a log of the link (or grab the download prior to try to install) if they are getting propmted so we can get this to look at?
A bunch of people talking about it, no one trying to get it?
Not sure how. I would be happy to grab the download and get it to someone.

Depends on how people are getting the prompt.. Within the other thread, one of the three anyway, there was this post by a rooted user that had the fail..
This would be ideal because it should have been sitting in /cache (as we've seen on other devices) and it could simply have been pulled.
The only other option (and it will probably not be successful without root but worth a try) would be getting a logcat (running log during process), then forcing the prompt by clearing framework in hopes of catching the download link when the prompt arrives and tapping it. Pull log, inpect it for link and go and get it manually.

By clearing all data in 'Google Services Framework' will this delete any of your contacts, settings, etc.?

nope...won't mess with anything....you may need to say yes to a few google permission prompts like accessing your location, etc...but nothing gets erased and no other changes

As soon as I turned off developer options, cleared framework data and forced closed it worked. Thank you!
Do we still yet to have a change log? Hoping for some speed improvements, if even small!

Another possible method of grabbing files on a non rooted phone is airdroid app. Connect with PC, choose files folder. By default it will go to the SD card but you can back up and get to the phone's system files after a warning screen. If the theory works, just start poking around the file system until you find the update and download it to the computer. You can't edit anything with airdroid but you can grab files at least if you're not rooted. I've never tried this but did see it show the phone's internal files when trying to get to external storage when the default go to folder was internal storage.
Got my update, turned off dev mode, force stopped google services framework, and cleared data.
So much smoother

I thought the only change was the kernel lock?

Gmail active display bug

Is anyone else experiencing the problem where opening Gmail via an active display notification results can a blank screen apart from the system ui and the toolbar? I'll get a screenshot next time it happens.

I've not had that issue with gmail, but i seem to remember opening chrome more than once to that same screen. This was launched from the home screen, not through active display though.
I think it's just an app not responding. Kill it and restart.
It's still responding. I can use the toolbar to go to my inbox and I can open the email there with no problems.

[Q] Contacts App Gone Missing

Had to wipe my Turbo. Everything looks good, but the contacts app is nowhere to be found in the drawer.
I can find it via settings > apps to clear data ect, but I like having the app around when I need to quickly add a new contact.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to bring the native app back?

[Q] Android notification not working / not showing up in status bar(

I'm using 2014 Moto X on Verizon Wireless with latest Google Android 5.0, everything was working well and all of the sudden I noticed that I'm not getting all notifications as I use to anymore... for example, I'm not getting notifications when I get email to Gmail or text to Goolge Voice and etc. Rebooting my phone that did not solve anything(
Any ideas?

Not clear enough to provide an exact solution, but there are quite a bit of changes made to how the user is notified with lollipop; All, Priority and None modes. Use your vol up or down key on your homescreen and make sure you chose all, then give it a try!

I'm getting some notifications from other apps, and i checked that i'm not on priority or none modes, i'm in "all" mode.
Go to
Settings - >apps> all> gmail
Check whether the get notifications box is ticked

That's not it, but I double check that too.. whenever you're send myself test email, I'm not getting until I refresh it manually.. same thing with Google Voice.

Settings - accounts - google, then your email. Check the auto sync there.

Only these two steps monitor the notifications. If nothing is happening, try clearing cache from the recovery. If even that doesn't help, a factory reset will do the work.

Are you sure all your sync's are on and you aren't on battery saving mode? Clearing cache wouldn't really help your cause, but in any case once you get to the android guy, tap power+vol up button simultaneously for a second and let go, repeat until you get the menu; it is a bit finicky

I was able to clear cache finally.. but that did not solve anything...
any other suggestions other then doing factory reset??

Sending gmail to yourself is not a good test, especially with certain routers which have problems with loop back issues. Have someone else send you an email, outside your network.

I email myself plenty of times from other emails, problem is obviously in something else, definitely not in email sending part.

I did not turn any syncing off and battery mode isn't on...
after doing Factory reset, that solved that.. but unfortunately not for long as a little bit over a week later I came back to exactly same issue AGAIN(((
You could try installing a different launcher see if this somehow kick starts notifications. I use Nova Launcher, you can get an unread count plugin for it which tells you how many missing emails, text messages, what's app messages etc you have. You may not need to install that though just nova launcher, switch to that and then back to Google Now (if you prefer it) then that should hopefully give it a kick.

Android System has stopped

Hi!
I have a new Note 9 SM-960U and whenever I try to share a picture, through FB or browser, I get "Android System has stopped". I can save a picture and send it, just not use the actual "share" function. I figure I probably did something I shouldn't have, but not sure what that might be. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Did you ever find the solution? My wife's phone is doing the same thing.

Found the solution if you're still looking. I installed a theme in the Samsung theme app and then reapplied the original one. That did it for me.
