In dark areas of the screen, any dust or dirt becomes easily visible and distracts me from watching a movie.
I can of course wipe it off with a finger, but then the movie will fast-forward, volume and brightness-level will change etc.
Is there some trick - short of disabling all gestures - that will make it possible to touch the screen without affecting playback?
(Like a special gesture that will temporarily enable the other gestures)
Screen lock, in the bottom left corner.
Feeling a bit silly now, that lock was there all the time...
I found another solution also: volume and brightness does not need to be changed often, so once they're fine one can disable those gestures and then clean off dust vertically.

Invisible Grip is a tiny but convenient tool for Android Tablet users to block unwanted, accidental screen touch while watch movies, ebook reading, or anything which requires you to hold your tablet for a long time. Brought you by the same Dev who made Smart Taskbar and Button Savior.
Nowadays, Android Tablets are getting smaller and lighter and at same time, the frame between LCD screen and the edge of tablet is also getting so thin and small to hold comfortably. Every tablet user should have such experience that his finger drops on touch screen area by accident and make movie playback stops or redirect to other webpage by clicking on ads near the edge of webpage during flash move playback. Why do you need to be ultra cautious from unwanted screen touch in movie playback while making your hands and thumb sore??
With Invisible Grip enabled, it creates two invisible strips at the left and right edge of display to block any touch event that falls on it. To disable protection, just simply draw a line on protected area. To re activate it again, just click on status bar icon located at system Bar in Honeycomb system.
[Features]
* Can display 2 invisible touch protection area at left and right
* Able to adjust sensitivity
* Able to disable protection automatically upon screen off

Quick question, I have two spots on the screen that when press along the edges of left or right of the scrren the middle of the screen and lower left of the screen (with more pressure than needed to operate the screen,) it will have ripple effect effect. I am wondering if this is isolated or widespread?

1. Dont do that
2. That happens with any lcd screen when you "press harder than needed"
If i rotate the bezel i switch over to weather updates or news or other apps...
I wanted to replace this functionality and control the brightness level by simply rotating the bezel.
I use the "I am Awake" app to always keep my watvh face on.... only thing i want now is a some app which makes the bezel rotation control the brightness. I dont want to go to brightness setting and then use bezel rotation to lower or raise brightness... its too long process and cant do it everytime..
Any such app exists ?
The closest ive come to doing this is by setting double tap of home button to "open last app" option...
So i go to brightness option.. then press home button... then whenever i wanna change brightness... i simply double tap home button and the brightness menu opens and i can rotate bezel to increase or decrease brightness......
But i want to remove this requirement of double tapping home button also...... simply rotate the bezel and brightness goes up or down....
Fyi... auto low brightness option is not so good.... its not so responsive.... it is slow.... sometimes it does not reduce the brightness only...
So thats why i was looking for the manual quick option to inc or dec brightness by just rotating bezel
I know and completely get what you're talking about, it would be nice to be able to modify the bezel actions.
The problem is that the bezel action is programmed into the OS, and Samsung / Tizen doesn't allow a program to override the base actions when you are out of the specific program.
I looked into this before, but with music instead of brightness. Long story short, my car stereo had an AUX input, and instead of looking at my phone to change songs, I usually just take my Gear S2 and put it on the steering wheel.
Now to change songs, I can use the bezel rotation. But, I would have to have the home double press go to the Music Player. If the screen was off for. More than 10 seconds, the bezel would go back to the normal actions.
I looked into it more, and it just seems that you really can't override the default behavior....long story short.
Tapatalk for Android - Works awesome on my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge
Does anyone have the same issue as me? Every few minutes, the navigation buttons slightly move to a different position on the screen, which makes them off-center with the rest of the screen. This usually happens after locking and unlocking the phone. I have tried to restart the phone into the safe mode but the issue is still present there. I have even contacted Sony support.
My oled TV does this to prevent burn in. Maybe check the display settings to see if it is such a feature?
Not sure, I cant find anything like that in display settings. I have also tried to change the minimum screen dpi in the developer settings and it fixed it right after the change, but as soon as I lock and unlock the phone, the buttons are off-center again.
This is a feature. It moves them over time to avoid burn in.
Ok thanks. But if this is a feature, it's pretty annoying, as it's very visible at times. Why aren't the buttons rather changing their size a bit instead? It would be less noticeable then moving them from side to side.
Nevermind, I have disabled the dock and I can't notice it anymore ?
Split screen from full screen issue
Hi, if anyone's using split screen 2 finger gesture or One Hand Operation + gestures for split screen, did you notice that since OneUi 5.0 it mostly opens split screen apps in the top screen when going from a full screen. For example when I'm watching YouTube in full screen with a gesture it opens it on the bottom side mostly even tho it's inconvenient and not handy, it sometimes opens it in the top part of the screen if I rotate phone in another side. For example it opens it in the top side of the screen if the phone is in full screen - front camera is on the left side, but it opens it on the bottom if the front camera is on the right side. I don't see the logic.
