PSA: Latest Good Lock version ships with bug that keeps flashlight on forever - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods

Don't install the latest Good Lock update. Turning on the flashlight makes it stay on indefinitely. The only way to turn it off is to reset your device.
Anyone else have this issue or a workaround?

Works well for me

If I swipe down from the stop and turn the flashlight on using the quick button, a new notification pops up saying the torch is on. Pressing the quick button again has no effect for me. Tapping "turn off" on the notification doesn't work either.

Use the edge panel to turn it off, now it should work as expected.

no problem here

Works for me, I noticed that after uninstalling my phone got noticeably faster and everything became smoother.. I'm not reinstalling

True.
The performance and smoothness of the S7 gets worse with Good Lock :/

5.0 Notification Vibrate

So the way i used to use my moto 360 before 5.0 on my watch and phone is i would have my phone completely silent with just the notification light and my watch giving notifications through vibrate. Now that ive updated i cant seem to get that combo back. Does anyone know how to do this?
I'm still using this notification combo, after updating my moto360 to 5.0. I haven't seen any changes. Silly question, but your m360 isn't muted is it?

yeah things change in the way of notifications when you update to lollipop on the phone
Yeah I have Lolllpop on both my phone and watch (Nexus 6 and Moto 360) and it looks like you can't mute the phone completely but still have the watch vibrate as normal. Absolutely pathetic on Google's part, they have completed complicated what was a perfectly simple, flexible, and easily usable system while actually *removing* functionality. I almost feel like I'm missing something obvious here because I can't fathom Google screwing this up so bad.
Can someone show me the light here because I really want to be proven wrong?
You can use Wear Mini Launcher quick settings to mute your phone completely.

Are you sure about that? I've tried using the Wear Mini Launcher to do this but it only cycles the phone through all sounds, vibration, and priority. Only priority will actually mute the phone, but of course that mutes the watch too.
To clarify, we are talking about both a phone and watch that are both running Lollipop.

Yes I'm 100% sure and talking about the same as you.

How exactly do you have the launcher set up to do this? Like specifically which things in the launcher settings do you have yours set to?
Just click the toggle button until the phone is muted.
Nothing to set.
Try this.

wow
Not sure what happened but I think the phone is muted now. Went back and checked the above settings and re-did them which may have done it, although I don't think any settings were set incorrectly before.
Thanks though!! This is still way more complicated than it should be and used to be but at least it looks like it's still possible.

Galaxy S6 (SM-G920F) Random FREEZE

hi guys.
first of all im very happy with this phone, extremely fluid near the stock android experience.
but i would like to know if im not the only one with this "little problem".
sometimes while using the phone (it happened only 3 times), i remember while im downloading an app, like a game (2 gb for example), sometimes it stuck, the phone become unresponsive, connection (wifi) turns off, the speaker makes a strange sound (like buzz), and then after a bunch of seconds the phone return back, wifi reconnet, and the app (game or other) starts download.
anyone with this?
hope i helped to identify the problem.

WhatsApp and other App notifications not showing.

Hey there guys,
I tried the search function but couldn't get much info on my issue to be honest, I'm on mobile so it was also a bit harder to try narrow it down.
I got the Mate 8 this past Friday and I've been trying to get the notifications to come up on the lock screen and can't seem to get it sorted. I just moved from an S4 with CM on it and even other Android phones have it where if say you get a WhatsApp message it will show up in a sort of card that you can expand or swipe away. How do I enable this because I'm obviously missing something here.
I read somewhere that it says you have to take the lock screen off, however I can't seem to do that, that option says it's either blocked by administrator or something.
Any help would be appreciated guys.
Unfortunately there's no complete solution for this, that's why I sold mine and bought a Samsung phone
Oh Alright, I'm not too worried I guess and I love the phone too much to do something like that :laugh: Well I'll make a plan.
Thanks for the reply.
Just search forum. there is a few solution for it. Notification issues for WhatsApp vanished.

Which one did you try? Did you make it system app or downgrade android system webview or disable doze?
I downloaded Android Web view, disabled doze, all I can do without root.

Fingerprint Lock

I am on an AT&T Galaxy S7 that's rooted, and I wanted to know if there was any way to bypass the accessibility thing where if you give an app accessibility permissions, then you can't unlock the phone with just your fingerprint. This is really irritating and I wanted to know if there's an Xposed mod for it, or if there's a bypass for this. thank you!
what accessibility you talk about ?
I hate that too. In my launcher (smart launcher 3) I lock the screen just swiping down. But after that, the fingerprint unlock function doesn't work ?
Well, i use Nova launcher and lock the screen with a double tap. My finger print scanner works just fine
This issue is present in the S6! Didn't know it was also present on the S7!
Does this happen on other phones like the G5, HTC 10, OnePlus 3, etc?
Enviado desde mi SM-G920F mediante Tapatalk
Try Screen Lock Pro to lock the screen. Remember to enable Smart lock and Fingerprint sensor setting in the app.
The screen goes black and there is a slight delay in locking but it still works well for me.
Just noticed your S7 is rooted, I think there were more options for rooted devices, didn't check as mine isn't rooted. Screen Lock pro works without root as well.
Finger print unlock is lagging for me. On other phones I just need to touch the home key or scanning area, not physically hold it down to unlock? Anyway to unlock when touching it?

It's an Android thing. I think since marshmallow came out.
This is a safety measure implemented by google on Marshmallow. Pretty Stupid and useless. There is an xposed module called "fingerprintEnabler" that fixes it

Issue with using Endomondo running app and GPS on Mi Mix 3

Hi Guys,
I have a really annoying issue while using my running app Endomondo. If i start running, i normally gets every kilometer an anouncment of the time per km and in total. Since I use my Mix 3 the announcment are pretty inaccurate! For example yesterday I run 8km, the app told me at the end it was just ~6km...don't know what is wrong. Any idea to solve the problem!?
Thanks!

How accurate is it when you review the run on the map? Is it tracking the actual path or is it hopping all over and cutting corners?

He is cutting corners, and when the GPS comesback the line is more a bee line....it seems that the mix 3 is lossing the signal!

Yes GPS issues for sure on this phone. Annoying especially for a phone that is supposed to have good GPS.

Phone is not rooted. Tryed Endomondo for a run a few minutes ago, and what should I say, all was good with the tracking, same distance like my Galaxy S7 edge. I have changed battery savings restrictions to no restrictions and I have updated this evening to global 10.2.1.0 so don't know if the solution is because of the change in the battery settings or because of the update to the latest Miui!
