Oncircle feature, anybody figured it out yet? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Oncircle seems cool, it looks like you can send drawings and emoticons similar like in Apple watches to favorite contacts. Can't quite find out how to add people though

You need other people to register as well. If they are not it is useless.

I have 1 person on Oncircle, I have no idea what it is, or how to get rid of it

You can't get rid of it. It's part of the people's edge. It's like ChatON.

You can turn it off.
Also I believe the other person had to have an edge device.

New message wake

I may be missing it, but does anybody see an option that won't wake the screen when a new message comes in?

Yeah you need to have a custom room or xposed mod to get the setting back.

Dang, seriously? I guess I'm so used to rooted phones that I didn't realize that wasn't just a general setting. We need root bad.

For SMS/MMS, I installed Textra and turned off the native messaging app. Textra allows you to not wake up the screen in settings. Not exactly a fix, but I'm liking the app so far.

Does the S5 still have Air View, Gestures and Smart Screen features?

I saw the reveal yesterday and have read countless articles about the S5. There was no mention of them in the announcement and nobody has any info about it. Anyone?
Yes. It's deep in the settings

Id' heard it's been dumbed down a bit, which i was interested in, for me the SGS4 was a bit gimmicky, seemed to be too much going on at the same time.
After a while you simply don't use some of the gestures, you rely on what you know, probably why the HTC One was so popular, it's system was literally stripped of anything it didn't need, worked really well and it's been the best to date, i think Sammy could take a thing or two from that.

Yep, they should definitely remove things like the smart scroll or the smart pause. Those are not even gimmicky, they are simply useless.

Agreed, they're simply to show off to people who've been using the likes of an iphone.
In real life they're pretty crap indeed.
They are still there but turned off by default.

Based on your signature, I'm wondering how are you liking the S5 so far? How's the battery life compared to the S4?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
:thumbdown:It's not as good as the advertisement. it drains fast.( just basic apps running in the background nothing that should drain the battery.)
I love the camera , camera editing, and the sleek look of the phone. It's better once you hold it. looks really nice.
:thumbup: It's snappy and badass.

That's not good to hear about the battery life but I assume your device is running a pre-release software build so hopefully Samsung will fix any bugs that may be draining the battery in the final release software.

hope it will clear up but yes still buggy for now.

Unresponsive notification shade

Still no idea how to replicate it. Seems to happen randomly. I usually have to turn off and on the screen to get it working again.

Strange issue, in thinking it could be the screen protector, or maybe you have all in one gestures enabled or a similar app that allows you to tap on statusbar for something. , or could just be defective. That's all I got. There was an awesome update today for T-Mobile
It fixes screen sensitivity and palm rejection as well as battery and performance upgrades. Its a great update but don't take it if you are gonna want root because they might find a vulnerability on the old software. Or maybe they find it on later software. No one really knows right now. Its up to u but I upgraded. Its worth it to me.

Some guys on Reddit said it could be cerebrus. Status lock messes with it

How to get rid of Missed Calls on Edge Direct Call

Noticed that since being installed, all missed calls show on the left side of the direct call edge app and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to remove them. Help appreciated.

I had the same thing happen but only for one text message on a single contact. The only thing that fixed it for me was to Uninstall the People Edge then re-install it. Notification went away. I've never had it happen since.

When choosing something from share menu, horrible delay

Ok so everytime I share something and that list populates with different things to share, does it take anyone else like 5 taps before it actually selects it? it takes forever! it'll never select it on the first tap. don't understand why it does this but I share constantly that it's so damn annoying.
Sent from my LG-US996 using Tapatalk
Same problem here
isn't it the most annoying thing? my s7, despite being a laggy device, was super fast with sharing. this one is super slow and very irritating.
Sent from my LG-US996 using Tapatalk
True.

anyone know why it does this?

May have something to do with the phone looking for devices to share to, say, on the network? Does it hang when wifi, nfc, file sharing is off?
My biggest gripe is when I select to share something, I get suggestions for apps and contacts using apps that I don't want at the top nor do I ever use them...
still hangs when wifi and stuff is off. I never have nfc on. idk why it does it, maybe the list is populating but it should be already populated like in the phone cache. idk, even my slow ass s7 didn't do that so it's very annoying
Sent from my LG-US996 using Tapatalk
Mine doesn't lag but it is very annoying because the icons are never in the same spot so when I'm doing a lot of sharing they will always be rearranged and gets annoying sometimes.
