Can't delete App Icon from Panel - Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had the Google Photo app icon on my Favorites panel. No problems. Google Photo app had a mandatory upgrade, which I performed yesterday. The icon for Google Photo became non-responsive, throwing an "App not Found" error message. At some point it changed from the Photo icon to the generic green Droid Dude icon. If I try to drag it off the panel, like you can with any other icon to remove it from the panel, it just snaps right back onto the panel and doesn't go anywhere.
Anyone know how to delete an "app not found" app/icon from the Edge favorites panel?

There must be a system app that controls the edge that can be wiped... then just set up your edge panels again.

note edge curved screen notification problem

Can I chose which notifications will be displayed of note edge curved screen.i don't want my what's app and Facebook notifications on it .can I turn them off?
If you are talking about missed notifications, tap the little tick box on the top of the Briefing Panel, the one with the weather. It will take you to the Edit Briefing Panel settings where you can choose which apps you want the missed notifications from.
On your side panel at the bottom is a ^ swipe it up and click the gear icon. Go to manage panels then look for the panel with missed call and missed message icons. Mine has a missed call with a 2 below it and an envelope icon with a number 6. Right below that you will see a pencil icon, click it then that will take you to a list of what notifications will show up. Find the ones you want and check the box. Uncheck the boxes you don't want to show up.

Show full SMS Message in notification

Hello guys,
In my old phones, when an SMS comes in, I slide down the notification panel, I can see the entire content of the message.
But in the Mate 9, I can only see the first two lines.
Problem is when using my banking app. When I request TAC, it comes as SMS the moment I switch to the message app to get the code, the banking app automatically logs out (that is how it has been programmed for security purposes). The banking app also doesn't allow split-screen.
Is there a way to get the notification show the entire message when I swipe down the notification panel?
Thanks
Have you tried swiping down the notification panel with one finger to open it, then using a two-finger swipe-down on the sms notification itself?

Just tried. Didn't work.
Thanks for the tip.
It seems that there is no way to get the notification show the entire message when we swipe down the notification panel.
I think it is maybe by design for security purposes.
It doesn't seem like it's for security if it's still showing the first line. I've had no luck replacing the default messaging app with Signal, either, which should have fixed this problem -- the phone lets me change the default, but then I stop getting any SMS messages at all until I change it back.

notification symbols show at top of my screen but when pull down do not show

Notification symbols show at the top of my screen but when I pull down they do not show up. Screenshots do not show this. When I pull down the notification panel it shows those things like Wi-Fi and GPS but nothing else. On my lock screen I see the notifications but I cannot touch them to go in to those running apps. Can someone please tell me how to get those notifications. One is Google photos another is an email also the download Arrow is there but I do not know what is downloading and then there are three dots indicating that there are others. And also when I do pull down the symbols are all in dark background not white as it was a few days ago. I do not know what I did
Please help.
Have you tried restarting your phone?

Yes I did restart the phone and I have just done that again with the same result. The pull-down says no notifications yet there are notification symbols at the top

Take a look at screenshots below.
Have you switched this Staus bar setting off ?
Phone /Settings /Display /Status bar
Problem solved. I had an app installed called Material Status, Bar. I uninstalled it and everything came back to normal and the notification panel works now.

Physical World App

This app has appeared on my home screen after I updated numerous apps from Google Play.
I can find no information about it. No idea what it does. It does not appear in Settings - Apps nor does it have a widget. I've attached a screenshot of my home screen when the app is started. It adds a curved set of lines across the lower part of the screen and a icon in top right corner that when pressed, returns the screen to its original form.
Can anyone share information about this app?
I've had this exact same thing happen. Weirdly, this posting is the only thing I can find *anywhere* on the internet. It doesn't show up when I display the apps in Application Manager, which is pretty bizarre (and it's not sorted in alphabetical order in my app drawer).
Do you use GoLauncher? They've been touting something about making icons dance when you shake the phone, though that's not *quite* the behavior we see here.
Interestingly (and a bit scarily), when I long-pressed on it to delete it - it disappeared rather than displaying with the 'x' in the corner that would let me uninstall it.
An update: I re-sorted my app drawer again and it appeared. When I long-pressed and then pressed the X to uninstall it, I got a message saying "You will not be able to use the shortcut in App Drawer anymore, sure to delete it?".
I'm 99.999% sure this is more odd behavior from Go Launcher - which has become more annoying with every new release, to the point where I'm considering getting rid of it (sudden ads on lockscreen? Sudden pulldown notifications blocking the screen with no way to get rid of 'em?).
I can't imagine a *less* useful shortcut for them to offer, honestly!
I Agee. I have Go Launcher also and I have the same mystery app on my home screen. My daughter thinks it's pretty cool!
