Please could Somebody help me on this one. :good:
Thanks A lot!

That's extremely weird! You mean the the five icons which you get by pulling down with one finger on status bar right? So what are you getting when you pull down, nothing?
Did you make a full wipe before flashing the ROM?

Well, nothing. It looks exactly as it was previous version 4.4x.
Except those "S finder" and "quick connection" buttons, see picture. What i have seen, the panel not suppose to look like this, see picture?
Is this weird or maybe it´s me?
And these were the guidelines what I´ve followed when i updated my phone. Step by step.

I´m not blaming the guides, just trying to give something what could help you to figure this out.
Thanks,

And sorry, I have quick settings but it's not looking as it should, is this right?

Really, nobody?
OIs there a change that someone could help me?
Should I do this again, and what is the best way?
Please

If that screenshot is how you are having the quick settings panel then its normal and that's how it looks on LP.

Okei, then I'm just stupid. I'm sorry. I thought it is grey and something wonderful and amazing new feature, it looks exactly same as before (kitkat).
I'm sorry.

I thought the same
There was supposed to be a special tab when you use two fingers to swipe from the top screen and have the ability to turn on flashlight and switch users. I don't have it either. How do you switch users? Go in guest mode?

Yes, exactly same here.
Although I don't have a guest mode at all and no silence mode (icon) anywhere so I think this failed.

mine now doesn't have a bar going across or something to drag down like iphone/htc sense - the whole image moves instead? seems very weird and would like to change it if i can?
i can't see an option to though. would prefer an pure android type of unlock method (with a custom wallpaper though). can i do this without rooting? want to leave that for a week or 2 to get used to the phone 1st
ta all
Look on the market .

And look for what? I cant find anything useful, like stock lockscreen.
Anyway, i think you need an update.zip for things like that.

i searched for " lock screen " and found something useful
lock screen
just use google there are endless possibilities
click here
there is even a video WOW
i do have 'goto my lockscreen' or whatever it's called but a lot of these alternate apps have a major problem (or 2) in that they interfere with bluetooth and wake up on any button press.
that's not really useful
1. Get widgetlocker
2. Win!
3. ???

try widget locker
I use 'ripple lock' which is a honeycomb'esqe unlock screen.
It is good but relatively new so there is room for improvement. however, the developer updates it regularly!

Widgetlocker is very configureable and you can tell it to stop waking on certain button presses. I am currently using it here and it is pretty awesome.

Edite widget locker settings, if i'm not mistaking you can disable hardware buttons unlock
ta, but i already unticked everything i could under buttons and inputs but vol down e.g brings the unlock screen up when it should do nothing
think it's a limitation of android and can't really 'replace' the real lockscreen as such. maybe a version that requires root will do it, who knows.
at the very least this will cause battery rundown.
You are right. I missed your point. I was talking about unlocking. Device wakes up when you press the hardware buttons, but will not unlock with the settings i was talking about.
i missed that part of yours too.
ta for the help mate

[Q] Carbon Lockscreen Targets

I am using Carbon ROM (Unofficial 20140107-2007) on my Verizon LG G2 and can't change any of the lock screen targets. Am I missing something here? I tried searching as well and either couldn't find the right key words or there wasn't anything, and since I am a noob couldn't post in the ROM thread. Anyone got any advice?
So far it's an awesome ROM, love everything about it, and will love it even more when the menu buttons can be altered.
Is the option in there or you just can't find it? If its there it might just be a bug. I think they just implemented that in the last few days so it might be a bit quirky.

The options are there for me to change them, but no matter what I select, it stays "empty". I am actually using Cover lockscreen for now until the company forces me to put a passcode to lock my device.

problem in the navigation bar (touch the bottom of the screen)

Hey guys ,I'm facing a nasty problem, the touch of my phone (nexus 4), not working, not whole screen, but the part of the navigation bar, even in recovery mode. Until yesterday I was reading a book, touch the bottom of the screen worked fine, but ... well, I'm on Nexus 5 experience (Stock Kernel), I try to go back to stock and lock the bootloader, I fear that I shall take shall be authorized and it is very annoying to me. anyone had or has knowledge of this problem? I know how to solve?

the bottom of the screen responsiveness has no ... i will install the stock before, and it sucks to not let anything drop or an hour it stopped responding and restarted, that the bottom of the screen, which includes the navigation bar does not respond, that even in recovery mode.

Oh man, I think I'll restore everything, lock the bootloader and take the tour, I think it ridiculous, the problem is in the phone hardware, factory, so it's their problem, what do I install or not install on my phone not change at all ... I'll try some roms to see if the problem changes ... Good luck with your problem too :\
OK, here's a little story that just happened:
I enabled dt2w today. So I've been playing around for a while, browsing, watching videos and stuff. When in the play store I used the swipe gesture to open the menu and was surprised nothing happened. I tried several times, it just wouldn't work. Back on the home screen (info: I've set it so the screen rotates in all angles and the navbar is always on the bottom) I was in landscape mode and was surprised again because the navbar would not react. So I rotated to portrait and it worked.
So I launched the phone tester app and used the multi touch test to check my whole screen and found that to the left and right side there was a blind spot from top to bottom about 0,5cm in width.
When thinking what could have possibly caused this I disabled dt2w, locked the screen, unlocked it and used the multi touch teat again. Alas, the blank spots were gone!
I'm not sure if this is helpful for you though as you use the stock kernel.

[Q] double tap to lock/unlock the Note 4.

Hello there,
Today I went with a friend of mine and bought him a brand new LG G3, I played with the phone a bit, and I really liked the "double tap" feature where you can lock or wake the phone up without having to press the power button every time you wish to unlock the phone.
My question is, is it possible to implement this setting in the Note 4? (N910C)
and if it is developed or under development, can anyone suggest a kernel/mod/rom that has that feature...
Thanks guys.
it's just a simple question and I'm new here :/
can't anyone suggest something?
I would be appreciate it.
Nope and nope for both of your questions.

hi,
just a quick point. /and question ?
Why do i want to double tap to wake etc...? If i have some other good options?
i flip open my S view case, to wake my device (without touching my screen etc) To put my phone to sleep i can either also double tap screen (Screen off app on Play market) or slide my finger (along top right side)(GMD app.. need root) on screen.. same effect?
To me its just as cool !
(Just some other cool methods!)
Good luck

Well, yeah I know these options and about those apps, all of these apps have one thing, they can lock the screen and not wake it up.
Its not that I will need this feature in anyway.. was just asking if it's possible to implement it through the kernel or a rom, or if its a hardware sensor thing..
because I was wondering, how would a phone wake up from an "OFF" screen with tapping on it, if there wan't any sensor to detect it..
and I wanted to see how would that work on a phone that never had that feature before such as samsung.
Thanks for your answer.
PM: I don't have a samsung phone, my question was for educational purpose as I'm doing electrical engineering.
Yes, it's totally possible, and has been added to many custom ROMs for many different devices.
Actually, to be more accurate, it's added to the kernel. So basically just look at all the custom kernels that are available for you, and see if any have that feature. If not, you could always ask a kernel developer nicely, or offer to donate a little if they'd add it for you..

Disable Edge on S7 Edge

*** MOD EDIT: thread closed, please go here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/hate-edge-screen-how-disable-t3442697 ***
Greeitings,
I would love to disable the edge on my S7 edge (at least one of them) because I am always accidentally tapping on them while writing which occurs to typos, mistakes, wrong presses and whatever.
Anyone knows a way how to do that?
Thanks

When it comes to typos you can easily reduce the width of the samsung keyboard in settings. Other then that you either use a case to avoid unwanted touch input or you could try to fiddle around with some third party sidebar launchers and set action to nothing but let them block the area at the same time. Just an idea. Imho just get a nice case. Even though the phone is less stunning it lies much better in your hand.

Go to settings--> Edge Screen--> turn off appropriate sliders.
I replaced my edge stuff with a combination of Swapps and PopUp Widget. Easily configure where your swipe spot is... and replace the edge panels with ones I created myself. Not everyone's bag, but it works for me.

I guess he means to turn off touch input on the edges not the edge panel itself. But could
you give more detailed info about your combo of swaps and popup widget. Which apps do you use? Could you provide a screenshot? Thx. I use glovebox as a sidebar app launcher.

I was going to explain it here, but putting screen-shots into this post takes some gymnastics. So, I created a blog post to show you step-by-step what I am talking about.

I really hate the edge screen for functionality. The phone needs a case to use in your hands. It is a beautiful phone, but if it wasn't for the bigger screen and larger battery, I would have gladly traded for the standard S7. I'm not holding my breath of disabling or reducing the touchscreen sensitivity on the sides of the phone, but I'll be interested if something does come out like this.
