Palm Swipe Screen Capture Not Working - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer

Just noticed that swiping to capture screen not working. It is ON in Advanced Features. Menu button + Power button does do a screen capture however. No change with different launchers.
Can anyone duplicate or recommend a fix? Thanks

Notice same thing it doesn't work

I got mine turned off usually, just turned it on for testing after I saw this thread, and it's working fine in both directions.
Is it not working sometimes? Or not at all?

Well I figured it out for my phone. I have the phone in a Caseology Wavelength case. Swipe Capture doesn't work. When I take the phone out of the case, swipe to capture works. I put the phone into a cheap clear gel case that I first got with the phone and swipe to capture works.. Very strange. Wonder what the case is doing to prevent the function.

Wake up and screen mirrored

Ok, I've got a weird problem and wondering if anyone else has it..?
Very occasionally when I try to unlock my note (pattern unlock) the screen turns on and it's mirrored (as in reversed)

Taking a screenshot with the mobile usually solved that issue.

Used to happen with my S2, few different roms.... the one thing they all had in common was the CRT effect, once that was off i was fine

Yep hold Home+Power
just a quick fix ,enter any app that would rotate then rotate to landscape and back to portrait and its back to normal.
Annoying but not enough for me to turn off CRT effect.
Additional hint: its just the 'CRT on' effect which causes that problem so you can keep 'CRT off' effect if you like.

CRT still on, but it wasn't happened in a week's use. Great tips if it does come back, though...

Weird lock screen notification

Not sure what this is but that rectangle with an eye keeps popping up for just a sec and only on my lock screen. If I have the notification drawer pulled down it won't show up. Its creeping me out. Like someone is taking spy shots or something. Anyone know what this is?

Hahahahahahahahahahahah
Man it's the "Smart Screen" option in Display settings! :laugh:
It's also present everywhere anytime not also on lockscreen! It will run each X seconds to check if you are looking at the screen or not!
I have never had that option turned on. It only comes on when in the lock screen. Glad u got a hearty laugh out of it. I bow to your superior intellect. ?

Notification Panel Button(What is the button like a slider?)

Hello guys,
After some updates, I noticed a button like a slider on notification panel but it is not active.
I could not slide right side or something like that. It seems fixed button.
What was that?
do a long press on it and it should bring up app info for the app that created it. then just click on the i symbol

that's not a notification. it looks like a tab to bring up a side bar or news service, could be a horizontal homescreen indicator (haven't used tw in years sorry), does it move or stay still ?
to sum up, I don't know sorry

It happened after I recently installed the most recent security update for June. It seems that the issue only happens with my home screen, my app drawer works fine all applications work fine, the phone works perfectly fine it's just the home screen that's all bugged out.
I've turned the phone on and off twice as far as troubleshooting goes and didn't solve anything.
Any clues on what to do and if you need any more info from me to troubleshoot it more. Thanks everybody
Clear cache and data for the home screen you are using, try a different home screen and see if you still have issues

Cleared the cache and data and tried different home screens. It's still just bugging out
Seen this on reddit. Some are saying it's a feature, working as intended. https://m.reddit.com/r/Nexus6P/comments/4lv8wd/whenever_i_change_my_wallpaper_to_anything_that/
I think it looks pretty cool.

Note 4 Display turns on by itself or minimal touches

Hello, friends of the Note 4.
Im note sure if i am right here to ask about a specific problem.
Like i mentioned in the headline, the display of my phone turns on by minimal touches it seems, for example if i take the phone in my hand but not puch any button. Can be that it also turns on without toches, im not so sure.
The effect is hardly reproducable though, by handling the phone rougher just to see if the display turns on. Not sure.
Im a little stumped by this problem, since it didnt changed by flashing another rom. Im a little afraid that it could be a hardware problem... Hope not.
Do you have any advice for me what to try or in what direction to look for a solution?
Thanks!
Quick Glance on for some reason? LOL!

What even is Quick Glance? I use a Note 7 rom, by the way... Just truned off smart stay. It will take time to see if it solved the problem.
I think this problem is related to the apps that can appear on top like pie control, drup or any other 3rd party apps. So try to disable them one by and see which app is causing this problem. Cheers

Thanks for reply! Honestly, the whole Apps hat can appear on top thing is a super bother. I dont really understand the sense of it. Yes i will try to disable all.
