Just got the color optimization OTA update on my phone. Its 138.43MB
Damn, just came here to post this! Just got the update notification as well!
Mine is 141.89 MB- installing now
---------- Post added at 07:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 AM ----------
The install was quick - took like 30 seconds
My Phone was on the Tmobile screen for 5 minutes
Also it did not prompt me for my pin at startup (like I have set) - looks like the update set it to "does not require" as default - just FYI if you have secure start up - you'll need to go back and set it again

My T-Mobile S8 also got the update this morning. I installed it and mine still prompted me to enter the pin saying your phone is security encrypted. Also after the update, I really don't see any improvement in the Display red tint adjustment range as mine seems to be about the same. The edge red tint adjustment does nothing to remove the red tinted edges on my S8.
My S8 wasn't serverly red tinted when I adjusted it before the update. After the update, I can't get it any better than the way it was before it seems. So the software update for me is a fail. How about all you other folks... you seeing any improvements (especially the red edges)? Although it is there, it does not bother the heck out of me and I could try to accept it. But I might decide to get Samsung to replace mine if they come out with a new batch that has a correct totally white screen balance all around the way it should be.
I had a slight red tint on the edge and set the "screen edge color adjustment" one notch towards "cool" and it looks better to me. Not sure if it's placebo or not though.
I'm on TMO S8 and I got the update. I've decided not to update until I see what it's about. Seems to me that I color correction would take about 25 Mb or less so seems a bit fishy to me. I found a root method for the S8 but I need to really study it before I try to do it and any updates may hinder the root process. Keep the info coming guys and I'll try the root soon but i do nned to make sure I can get back to stock before I do.

Hi All,
Just got my Nexus 6P from Google UK to replace my HTC One M8 GPE (Been an amazing phone. made better by GPE)
Anyway, I've enabled developer options, but can't for the life of me get System UI tuner to work, the settings symbol just wont spin at all, tried holding it for 2-3 seconds, 5 seconds and 10 seconds.
Also tried this on my HTC One M8 GPE, Nexus 9 and wont work on them either?
Any thoughts? got developer enabled on them all.
Took several tries for me to get it. Hard to see it spin with my fat finger on it.
it wont spin at all on any of the devices, I can hold it down so my finger is fully over it or I can hold it down so only part of finger is on it, but it wont spin.
Got it working, turns out you have to have animations turned on in developer settings for it to work.
I still want able to get the System UI Tuner to show up in settings after enabling animations. I don't know what else to try.

Never mind I got it to work. I had to turn off developer settings. Restart phone then use the normal method of turning it on. It worked fine after I did all that.

How did you disable the developer settings?
Go into Settings>Developer Options
And at the top there is an "On/Off" toggle. Then restart your phone. And do the method of enabling the "System UI."
Tried to get System UI Settings. . Nothing worked until I read posts above. But I also suggest that if you have shut off animations in Developer Options - return them to the default 1.0 so you can see the gear spin. Reset them after you get the System UI options.
I've got an updated to nougat p9 and it doesn't work at all
What I heard system UI is for the Google phones.
Guys My Device Shoes That System UI tuner has been Sucessfully Added to Setting But I Can't See It In Setting

Hello all,
If you are also victim of phone lock security please read on:
Few days ago, my phone started asking me PASSWORD instead of PATTERN. Due to this i was not able to start my device as i had encrypted the phone and checked the option "Pattern required to start the device".
If you have faced the same problem, read the solution below:
Think of Pattern dots as normal T9 dialer where top-left dot is '1' & bottom-right dot is '9'.
So if you have kept Pattern as 'Z' then corresponding Password is 1235789.
Another e.g if Pattern is 'L' then corresponding Password is 14789.

Thanks. That works! However after boot completed, I went to reset my pattern, reboot, and now my pattern isn't recognized..!! I think I'm done..?
---------- Post added at 10:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 AM ----------
When I input wrong pass, it quickly says wrong. But when I type right one, it's checking for a while, like it's trying hard to decrypt, then fails.
Try the steps of OP again

After I followed this method I chabged my pattern and since then it's working properly whenever I reboot.
You can try again the steps in OP and this time don't set pattern, try with any other method pass/pin and check.
Later again set pattern and check
Man, I'm telling you I'm being asked for a pattern now and mine won't do. I think I'm done.

I'm wondering how you do with a 4x4 or 5x5 pattern? How does it calculate numbers this time?

For 4x4, would it be like this? I have a phone that's so. Is there a way to trigger this "bug" so we can test it?

I am not sure about other patterns. 4*4 and so on are usually available only in custom roms. I faced this issue twice once on my phone and once on my wife's phone. Phone was encrypted in both cases. Both phones were Moto (Moto g2 and Moto G4). May be encryption and Moto OS does not go along always.
Hi Guys,
I have Iris and fingerprint and lock screen pattern set up as my unlock options. I used to just use one of the three mentioned and go straight in to my home screen. However this morning the phone has been presenting an additional swipe to unlock screen. I cant find anything in the settings to disable this and it's very annoying.
Any one know what it is and more importantly how to get rid of it?! Image attached.

Do you happen to have Smart Lock Enable?
Nope it's not that, Smartlock puts a small padlock on the standard lock screen.
I've tried disabling smartlock and I can confirm ts not related to that.
you have an app that is acting like the lockscreen, find it and remove it
Might be power saving or performance mode

That was my assumption as well - has to be a 'google' app but I cant seem to locate it.
I've flicked performance mode off and it's still present.
It has to be another app. Probably an app that has additional stuff on it you didn't know about. My mom and dad's phone had an additional lock screen due to a cleaner app they installed. I was like wut.
That's without a doubt a third party lock screen
Had the same issue
It is a third party app
I had one called ManFIT
I uninstalled it and was good to go
Definitely an app that you recently downloaded or one you have that updated. Work for tmobile we get this all the time with old people that let their kids download anything. It's a free game/theme/file cleaner/battery saver/virus cleaner/emoji keyboard. If it's an app you need for something else you can revoke certain permissions for it to get rid of the fake lockscreen.
I have the same issue
I'm having the same issue and it's extremely annoying.
As soon as I use my fingerprint to unlock my screen I'll hit the button to close out apps, and it is first in the list, and it's called "lockscreenplugin" and has a picture of what the android system apps is like (little green monster)
But I cannot figure out how to disable it as it's not listed in the apps in settings (even showing system apps)

Once you unlock your screen and your stuck on the swipe one......in the top left corner I noticed 3 dots, I tapped it and it said turn off now......see if that helps

The three dots in the top left of this annoying screen lock is the answer! I got this new lock screen yesterday and it's been driving me crazy; it even shows ads for Lyft and Facebook. I had to touch the area of the three dots about six times before a pop-up message appeared, asking if I wanted to disable it. Then it asked again if I was sure. Afterward it is completely disabled. THANKS!!!
No three dots

Hello!
I'm using the P10 Plus and I'm not able to find the setting for Touch-disable mode anymore. (I'm pretty sure it was there on previous android version)
This "Touch-disable mode" setting seems to be always on, after Oreo update.
It could be cool for everyday use, but it's a BIG problem when I like to put the phone into a plastic case/bike phone holder.
I get the message "do not cover the top of the screen..." and I'm not able to unlock the smartphone from the case.
That's soooooo annoying!!
Does anyone know a workaround for this issue??
Thank you very much!
Am I the only one with this problem?
When you lock your phone you try to cover the top part tgen you'll see on display says disable it pressing power and volume up I think.

Tnx, I know, but when the device is in a motorbike holder ( like my Givi S957B ) it's quite impossible to press power and volume up...
I'm just asking why in oreo firmware the "touch-disable mode" is not available anymore.
For me it's a big issue!

No, same problem comes with the Huawei P20 Pro. Touch-disable mode is enabled, but there is no option to disable it. :crying:
Came on here as had the same problem. I found that if you tap volume up and power button 3 times it disables or enables it. It doesn't work anyway, if you accidentally press the fingerprint scanner in your pocket, it unlocks the phone and you end up changing all your settings and calling a porn line all from your pocket.

In the System Table screen, scroll down to the bottom towards the 'T' section and find "Touch Disable Mode 1". Tap on it and change it to 0 to turn it off and hit save.

The above worked for me about 3 weeks ago on my P20 Pro.
I had an update to the phones os last week, now it's reverted back to not liking the sensor being covered when I have the phone in my running armband.
The "Touch Disable Mode" option has disappeared from the System Table section of Settings Database Editor. Most annoying!
Hey
So I installed the Setting Database Editor app to change the setting and then uninstalled it to see if the change would persist without the app - it did not, so I went and reinstalled the app but also found that the "touch_disable_mode" setting was missing so I added it manaually and its working ...no more annoying message about nonsense.

Wasn't always there but have a notification up the top right by the signal bars.
Theres a not so pretty and frankly useless notification as you can see from the image..
Can't find the switch to turn it off, personally don't want to use VOLTE nor do I want to see the notification.
How can I turn this off and remove the notification.

Never used it, never needed it and never had a problem before.
Plus I don't want LTE checking for calls constantly, my guess is it'll impact battery compared to regular calls.
Personally it'll about me if it's left on, currently I've just hidden it, so if the battery SOT I'm currently testing is adequate then I may leave it
