White glow at top and bottom of home screen - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've tried Nova, Google Now and the Touchwiz launcher, but on any homescreen, I get a weird white glow at the top and bottom of the screen. This doesn't show anywhere except on the home screens. The black wallpaper I use, is completely black when I open it in the gallery. I've checked all home screen settings, and cant find anything that could cause this.
Does anyone know what it is?
It's sort of hard to see on my LCD monitor, but it's pretty annoying on my S6 Edge's AMOLED screen.

[Q] How do you edit the today wallpaper?

How do you stretch the today wallpaper in the fuze? I can set it but its tiled, how do I make it centered or stretched to fit the screen?
Ok I figured out the change. I changed the resolution for the pic to 480*640 and it works just fine now. Its stretched to the entire screen.
BUT I have a new problem

Separate Wallpapers

Is there anyway to set a different image for the lock screen and the home screen? I have tried Widgetlocker, however with that app, I can't get the words "Widgetlocker" and the grayish part on the top to disappear.

[Q] Screen centering and or smaller edge screen

Notice how on home screen everything is kinda of center to the left because of the efge panel when its open , will there be a mod or something to get the screen center or maybe adjust as the edge panel opens and closes. Like right now on this page the edge panel is black with my custom text and its smaller than when on the home screen.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
See the difference , the touchwiz launcher always has edge panel open and any other launcher has it closed. The one on left appears to be open a little but its really not, its just how the screenshot is taken.
Im not really understanding you.
When on the home screen yes everything is push to the left because the edge panel cant close on the default launcher.
Now while in an app the edge panel closes and becomes small with the text.
The screen is center.
So i dont know if your is off or what.
Sorry for the confusion. What i mean is closing the edge panel on touchwiz launcher

Is there any mod to have the edge panel closed on the home screen like when it closes when in the app drawer?

How can I designate a default homescreen on Nova Launcher Prime?

This has been driving me batty for months. I note [email protected] is a senior XDA member so I'm hopeful I'll find a solution here.
I'm running Android 5.0.1 on an HTC One (M8). I've had Nova Prime launcher as default for a couple years and love it, but I cannot find the magic formula for designating my primary homescreen (the one with my clock app and primary app icons--there are two screens to the left; three to the right of this screen) as default. when I tap home twice and get all homescreens in view, there are white house icons above every screen EXCEPT the one I want as default, which shows a black house icon. When I want to go to the homescreen, any of the six may come up when home is tapped.
What I'm trying to do is set my chosen homescreen as default so it pops up whenever I tap home. Not sure if it could be a factor, but I'm also using the Next lockscreen widget as well.
It used to be pretty simple to designate the default homescreen, but either it's become more complicated (or I've gotten stupider)
Any help out there?
Thanks
Go into the home screen overview, then tap and hold the home icon of the screen you want to be your default. That icon should turn white and become the default screen.
Thanks, Scottjb
This is what I find bizarre--what you've suggested only seems to work in reverse: 5 of my homescreen icons are white houses--if I tap and hold on one of those it turns black, however if I tap and hold the black house on the screen I want to designate, absolutely nothing happens. Confused here!

Black navigation on all screens

Hi,
Since the update to one ui 2.0, i have a permanent black bar where the navigation buttons usually go,(i used gestures btw).
Its like the black bar you get under the keyboard which i have turned off, but still just get an empty black bar at the bottom of my screen now.
I've drawn round it in red to show what I'm on about in the attached picture.
Is anyone else having this issue and how i do i remove it.
Thanks in advance
Sometimes the bar will change colour to what's on the screen, but before the update it wasn't there at all.
Hi, I only got that when I used the kwgt app to theme my phone. I still want to know why but anyway once uninstalled my phones back to normal.
