Thanks for replying!
Everything else works fine but when I go to 'Manage Panels' and tap on 'Tap here to download panels' nothing happens. It makes the 'bloop' sound like it acknowledges the tap but nothing comes up. The only thing I tried is restarting the phone, but nothing happens when I try to download panels it just sits on the manage panels screen.
I'm going to try the reset, do you know how to do it on this phone ?

right outta the box I disabled a bunch of apps that I thought I was never going to use(considered to be bloatware) and galaxy apps was in the disabled apps, once I enabled it the option worked

it did the same with me but after a soft reset it went away
it comes back after a soft reset. it shows up when my phone is finished booting.
me 2 help?
same thing happens to mine as well. it keeps popping up. how can i fix this?
Yeah me too! It's really winding me up. I don't even remember installing the blasted thing. Unless it came with my Dutty ROM I just installed but the messages only started showing up in the last day and I've had the ROM for over a week with no problems before this. I am wondering if it hitched a lift on something else I installed

The 07 version works fine but the new one i am having a problem and cant figure it out.I have cleared and reset everything and did a clean install. every things fine until i lock the phone or screen timeout. then the bottom lights dont come back on. i have done the factory reset again and cleared davlik and still not helping. If i send a email it will activate the notification lights and it will work untill screen locked again. i have toggled them on and off as well. Anyone else have this problem and have a solution for me?
Bln works, but is buggy. If this is your only problem, be happy
At some point something will click and it'll start to work right. I'm trying to stabilize that driver but it may be a while.

What worked for me after trying and trying to find a way around ACCESSIBILITY SETTINGS for hours...was just:
1: Clicking the green setup arrow.
2: Turning off Wi-Fi.
3: Clicking NEXT.
4: Choose KEEP YOUR APPS & DATA.
It then gave me an option to SIGN IN....and immediately ACCEPTED my most recent password!
SIMPLE, I KNOW...BUT hell, it worked for me. Sometimes, the most obvious things get overlooked. Was this just a fluke or is it really that easy to bypass?
I may have missed a step, as I'm no longer in the setup situation...but let me know if this helped you! :good:
I tried this and it didn't work.. wish it would have as that is what I think I triggered whenever I redid my phone.

Damn....yeah. All I essentially did was turn off Wi-Fi, skip setup...then backup from a previous installation. NOTHING else worked, even though one time before, I fixed it, too. BUT...I'll be damned if I trigger it on purpose, just to find out how! LOL. I literally tried Googling for hours yesterday...and EVERYTHING was patched that used to work. I found a way into Google, through Legal Settings in Accessibility....but it wouldn't let me download a file, or set a shortcut to get to split screen.

Hmm. Well for me I don't have a previous installation. And yeah.. I can't find anything either. It won't let me turn off Wi-Fi to skip setup as I guess its saying my phone doesn't have data? Not sure but turning wifi off just keeps me at that screen.
I have the T-Mobile S8+ (SM-G955U). It is NOT rooted. I pre-ordered my device and got it early. I've had no real problems with the phone until this issue cropped up a week or so ago.
The rotate option in settings has completely disappeared. See attached. How can I get it back?

Have you tried a restart yet? That will fix a lot of little issues you might be having.
Edit:
Also, have you disabled any packages with Package Disabler Pro or any other app?
Yep, tried the "soft reset" option: press and hold the “Power” and “Volume Down” buttons on the device for about 10 to 20 seconds. No change. I'm reluctant to do a Hard Reset (traveling) until I return home.
I had been using Package Disabler Pro with only a few things disabled. Figuring that it might have been the cause of the problem, I removed both the app and the engine. The the problem remains: no way to enable the rotation.
And you tried to go to the three for menu send change button order and see if it's on the bottom (disabled) and fresh it back to the top of it is?

I had this exact same issue with my old Note 5
Out of the box (In my case) my rotate icon was missing from Notification bar. I also had no root or any tweaks etc.
I spoke to Samsung rep and they told me to try some Samsung Galaxy fix from their app store. This app did not help (forgot the name)
If you Google this issue overall its a common issue
with Samsung's devices.
It was a big issue way back i think with S6 (not sure Google it)
I reflashed my stock Rom etc.. nothing helped.
Anyway what i did was, download an 3rd party
rotate widget app, from Play store and it worked 100%.
Rotate icon would show up in Notification bar..!
As soon as i uninstalled 3rd party app, icon dissappeared..! So i just kept the
3rd party rotate widget
Maybe to can try same ?
Bottom line,
this is an old Samsung bug that affects
only small percentage of their device.
Good luck
Yep. Nothing is disabled. See attached.

Figured as such, but never hurts to verify the basics.
I remember their was an issue with some devices (S6 era) dropping quick toggles. Maybe try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xpe.app.quicksettings.manager
Not sure how much it costs, I bought it for my S6 a long time ago. It won't open on my S8 but maybe something similar can be found?

Glad you have fixed issue.!
For me it was a very annoying and frustrating
issue. If i switched off 3r party toggle.,
Icon would disappear etc.
So just keep widget out of sight
(dock draw) and forget about it.
Good luck
Well, as the title says, everytime I pick up my phone I feel a little vibration (and no, I don't have the "smart alert" thing turned on). I tried not to be worried about it but I can't not notice it. Any ideas?

May be you guys should try turning off the setting and restart, if that doesnt solve the problem go to recovery mode and clear cache. Let us know if any of that works.
On a side note: I have been facing weird ass issues with this phone just today my phone wont go to mute by using volume key while receiving a call. Like someone calls you and your phone is ringing, you just want to silence the ringtone you can use volume key (Press once), Flip the phone or put your palm over it (If you have the settings on). I tried multiple restarts and switched on and off the settings many times. It was fixed when i restarted my phone to download mode (This happened by mistake i wanted to go to recovery) anyhow that fixed it.

Did you follow the steps i suggested ?
Also try clearing system cache in the boot menu.
If that doesn't get it, modify the appropriate notification setting, lol.
That can be a daunting task but sort of fun because you can streamline your notification settings as you do so.

There are apps that log notifications so you can just check the log and quickly determine what is causing the notification even if nothing is showing on-screen

If they catch it. Consider which sensors and operation triggers it, cause and effect, to narrow it down.
Playing with Android is fun... Android witch hunts are how you really learn about Android's gooey layer tricks.
Google searches on older Notes and parallel Samsung models can turn up answers many times.
This model is too recent; so not near as much online troubleshooting info. Google searches encompass threads on this forum as well so it can be a good way to find the needle in the Android stack. Do not time limit searches.
On my 10+ with it's baffling bt poor audio I found the answer with something written about the N9.
Many of these issues are long standing.
Samsung finally fixed the bt settings issue in a Wearables update. That took years.
Only persistence is omnipotent...
I figured that out by chance..
It's the edge-compass app
Just delete it from edge apps and it'll go away.. cheers

Well, I've checked all that and nothing, I don't even have the compass edge panel. But I think I'm able to replicate the issue, it mostly happens when my phone is face down on a surface and I pick it up and turn it to me, I don't have a case on it yet and I'm starting to think that it might have something to do with the edge screen but so far no luck
Use good lock. It has a module to detect vibrations and tell you what they are
Nice catch

Yeah, I installed it yesterday. But no vibrations are registered there so honestly I don't even know what to think now.
On the other hand when I switched from my note 10 plus I used smart switch, and now I'm thinking I should do a fresh start on my n20U.

Exactly check if you have Notistar from good lock switched on. That cache might need clearing.
I just go with it lol. I'm nutz. I'll feel my **** vibrate in my pocket when its sitting on the table. So I don't pay much mind to phantom vibrations. ???

It does suck some battery life though. It's one of the features I disable on my 10+ mostly because I find it annoying.
It's cool though how much you can customize notification behavior; one of the biggest reasons to go with Samsung is customization.
I play around with Settings a lot.. never crashed a load doing it. It's just occasionally gets time consuming to sort it out.
