Both the Edge versions of S6 and S7 supports rubbing the edge to display the Edge Feeds. Is the whole screen's digitizer always on, or just the edge part of the screen? And if it's either the case, is it possible to use this route for a 'native' double tap to wake (i.e. not keeping the whole screen awake just to listen to the double tap gesture)?
Don't think the s7 has that feature, the reason the edge feeds work is because only the sides of the screen are on, the rest of the screen is off.

will there be a rom that will allow full screen normal usage as in expanding to the edge screen instead of just notification and shortcut multitasks.
I accidentally dropped my OnePlus One and it resulted in a crack that goes from the bottom of the left edge of screen to the right edge of the screen about 3/4 inches from the bottom. Luckily the LCD display still works, but the digitizer (touch) has stopped working in a rectangular area at the bottom of the screen. I now have to use a screen rotation app, combined with on-screen navigation bar (the hardware buttons also are IN that rectangular area) to work with my OPO along with a lot of turning the phone upside down to access all the screen functions.
Today I got to know of the wm size and wm density commands using which I was able to play with the phone's resolution, but whatever I do with these commands, the whole screen area is being used. Would anyone here know of some way to change the usable screen area so the rectangular area at the bottom is ignored for all purposes - i.e. it remains black all the time and everything begins from above this area?
I do have a replacement screen but I don't suppose it is original plus I don't want to risk opening up my phone and putting the replacement.
I'm using CM12 and I've rooted my phone.
Somehow I keep accidentally activating it, but it's basically just a dim blank screen that only shows the time and date, and the two tabs for the edge screen?
It happens every time I pick my phone up..thanks. I can't seem to find it anywhere.
This is the quick notification from the edge alerts. You can swipe the tabs on the side towards the middle of the screen to see what they contain.
Hi guys. Please help me. is there any solution for the edge screen always on. i want to use all panel especially navigation panel on edge screen. But edge screen always off any touch on main screen. :crying:Thanks a lot....
Hi, I've recently got this phone. I noticed that direct taps on the curved area are not working (e.g. tapping the backspace button on keyboard). However when I swipe through the curved area, it seems to work.
Is this normal with this device or just an issue with my unit? This is my first curved screen phone.
Thanks.

Seems to be intended behaviour as a way of stopping accidental touches, swiping is different as it's mostly for gestures, swiping from the right to open drawers etc.
