I have the Tmobile Note 4 Edge and I have searched far and wide for someone else with the same issue. I am rooted and on NK3 official firmware. I am able to install any edge panels such as the ones on the Edge panel market. Even after downloading them they do not show up in the manage panels list. Even after a reboot.
I also tried downloading the Edge navigation panel from Google Play and followed the directions to a T after running the app but it still will not show up under Manage Panels.
Has anyone else ran into this issue?

If you have a Note Edge that's been updated to Lollipop, Samsung changed the camera app and moved the capture button to match most the other Android devices.....
I won't like the new camera app for this reason.
So there is no way to bring all camera controls on edge screen
I too dont like new camera app now...

Selfies are easy, you can use the heat-rate sensor on the back to snap a picture.

finger over the hrm is used for idiotic selfies
Help please I have the same issue >> I need the camera control on Edge screen not in the main screen , can any body extract apk of the stock camera from kk ?
Edge Camera
Hi,
It's better to use voice command than switching to camera tap on main screen.
I also talked to Samsung customer service but those morons are acting like they have no clue what happened wrong.
Regarding selfies either prefer voice command or use your index finger on the sensor below the camera( at the back) , it will capture pics.
but the place of shutter control over Edge screen is much better ,, it is the reason why I bought galaxy note Edge
Please help >>
Edge Camera
We were using kitkat for nearly 4 months with the camera tap on edge screen and had no expectation that this will be removed in lollipop update.
So its like we all are facing the same issue but Samsung seems to act like an idiot by changing the edge screen functionality from camera app.
Have no clue to get it back other than downgrading to Kitkat.
if downgrading to kk will erase and wipe all data I will not do it ,,, so we need help here

Titanium?
my problem is customaising the forldes and downloading program data which will take 3 days of my time .. titanium not restoring these things
2 options that work for me
1. Samsung Smart Switch for PC. This has replaced Kies and copies your images and documents as well to their respective folders. It also copies the app apk. So after that you can just restore the app data from Titanium
2. For a full copy of the sd card, Unified Android Toolkit works pretty well. It's useful if you have very customised data folders.
folders of icons of my downloaded software in the app menu ,, no way to restore the order and content of folders which I made it
Restoring launcher data from titanium restores any folders and app order in both the home screen and app drawer

Just did a factory reset on 915G. Used Titanium and successfully restored all the folders and settings in app menu, launcher and edge bars in stock Touchwiz launcher as well as Nova. All icons, folder content, and order were correct. Just remember to do them last, after restoring all the apps.

What we need to do is open a law sue about it.
Im for real, the same thing happen with sony when they removed "other os"
So we need to together and complain.
They didnt give us any warning.
I remember i rooted a phone to to get rid of the ota update naggying screen. I didnt want to update.
But short of all that we cant change it.
Hello.Since i updated my note edge to 5.1.1 always the samsung messaging app is freezing.
On every rom version. I installed every rom with full wipe. Is the messaging app on your note edge freezing too?
And is there any solution?
I had my pre-owned SAMSUNG Galaxy Note Edge (SM-N915G)
running on Android OS 5.1.1 for almost a year.
The phablet was doing fine all along, until recently...
when the new OTA update Android 6.0.1 was made available
in my region my phablet start to show signs of malfunction
especially to the edge screen.
The edge screen's briefing panel always jam
& unable to load up whenever after a rebooting
of my phablet. The only lame-man method that I know
to solve my problem temporary, is to uncheck the panel...
confirm the setting & go back to re-check the panel...
re-confirm the setting again.
Anyone knows how to fix this problem permanently?
I've even tried full reset via [Vol. Up] + [Home] + [Power],
but it still didn't solve the problem.
Also, the update has been draining the battery like crazy.

I just haven't got time to downgrade the OS that's all
to see if it's the OS fault or not.
But funny... my the other Note Edge didn't have such issue.
I don't need the edge functionality of the phone and would just like to use that portion for whatever is on my screen instead. I experimented with Nova launcher and it removed the edge panel...but only part of it. The edge panel is gone but I still see a thin black bar all the way at the right side of the screen remaining. I want to completely use the entire screen of the phone. So is there a way to remove the black bar and maximize my screen real estate? I feel like maybe a custom rom would do that but I don't wanna go that far unless I know it achieves that.
I kinda had the same problem as you . The edge wasn't very important to me . Flashing a custom rom did help me in achieving that . The first rom I tried was RR by micky I it comes with a omni switch so ya can turn on/off the edge functionality . But if ya prefer to be on MM I would recommend noble rom it comes with an edge panel but is invisible for most of the time ; . I personally use n915f with noble rom and Micky's kernel . Hope this helps

Do you get the ENTIRE screen or is there a remaining thin black bar? Nova Launcher got rid of the edge panel and gave me more screen but I'm still left with a thin black bar on the side so I'm not utilizing my entire screen as I wanted. Can you show me a picture of your phone with either of those roms? I don't want to go through the headache of installing it only to find out its like Nova in the end result of a thin black bar leftover. And will those roms work on an at&t Note edge? Thanks for your response
Due to some unknown reasons am unable to upload a screenshot "network error". Could ya please check noble rom thread ( OP : Albe96) under the development section . He has uploaded some screenshots which will give you a better idea . The title says it works for only Fy&G versions but with the right kernel it worked fine for me on 915f . Am not sure if it works on at&t version of edge . Maybe you can post a question under the rom thread sure somebody will help you
Update : I don't have any black bars.

I meant pictures like an actual pic, not screenshot because I wanted to see if the black bar was visible. But its okay, I appreciate the info you provided. I'll take a look at that now but might not risk it because it doesn't sound like its compatible with the at&t Note Edge.
it would be nice to use the entire screen to display everything

Do you know what the screen size is without the edge panel? Like say I'm using a web browser or some other app and the edge panel is gone now, how big is the display with the edge panel out? 5.4, 5.5 or 5.6 inches? And how big is everything total with the edge panel included?
dont think its possible ,its two separated screens ?
No it's definitely one screen.
I'm in the same situation. Couldn't get the Noble ROM working on my F device unfortunately. I uninstalled the Cocktailbar service to get rid of the edge panel (sped up the device quite a bit BTW). Nova wallpaper covers the entire screen now but the display of the icons gets trimmed off when scrolling.
A Note compatible application will show under an app that gets clipped short and if you window an application, you can drag it to cover the curved portion of the screen so on a system level, it is possible to utilise the entire screen.
There must be a configuration setting somewhere that defines the application rendering area. As a relative Android newbie, does anyone know where such a setting may be found?

Thanks for your response to my post. Even after all this time I'm still trying to get this phone to utilize the entire screen. I'm not sure how you uninstalled Cocktailbar service because I didn't get an option to do so. I have Nova launcher which did get rid of the edge panel but there's still a thin black line on the side of the phone. When the edge panel exists, it utilizes the entire screen but when I remove it by using Nova launcher, I lose the edge panel but I still can't maximize my screen usage because of the thin black bar left on the side. This is so frustrating.
if you dial the service mode , you can test both screen separately , main panel and edge panel , not sure if it one screen at all , thats why note edge is the only curve screen that works ?
I used Uninstall which you can get from the play store. Requires root access, really speeds up the phone when you remove it.
I found a hacky way to get the screen to extend nearly all the way to the edge by dropping the DPI of android system process to 50 and then overriding the DPI of everything else to the normal 640. System notifications are stupidly small and unusable though as well as any edge apps like the camera, see attached. Best option is to bite the bullet and get a Note 4 ROM working I think.
Weird I find the edge screen much more useful without the specialist software. Fast scrolling with a full screen is lovely on the edge bit.
Download and flash a AOSP Rom or Note 4 Rom and then I'd recommend Total Launcher
I'm using MRU Widget as my homescreens softkey row.

Yeah, eventually my tinkering made my phone go bang so I had to reflash. Bit of a pain but can't recommend it high enough. I went for the ROM below, a Note 7 adaption and it's awesome. Have to tinker a bit to get finger prints working but it's straight forward enough.

Hi, I flashed a Note 4 ROM on my Note Edge yesterday, only to find the entire screen worked as a whole! But an issue showed up: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/camera-app-interfaces-malposition-issue-t3960314
