Edge Lighting issue - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

Hey guys. I need ur help plz. My edge lighting is working but it doesn't go around the screen anymore if that makes sense. Like when u play music the light goes around the screen infinitely. Any ideas? Cheers

Hey, I just ran into this issue too with my phone. After factory resetting my phone, my edge lighting works but it doesn't run around the edge of the screen. All it does is turn on. I tried clearing cache and deleting data on the edge panel app settings but still nothing.
Tried uninstalling the Edge Screen update version 3.1.00.1 but still the same thing..
Did you find a fix or anyone? TIA

NVM. Figured it out. End up, you have to set "animator duration scale" in Developer Options to a scale instead of turning it off. Might have turned it off by accident..

I ask because I've been hunting down a battery drainer too and found this partial wake lock preventing my phone going into deep sleep. I removed the HTC mail widget from my homescreen and the wake lock has gone away. It kinda sucks cuz I like having the mail widget. Just wondering if you found a different solution to this problem.

OP also updated
The app is OK. But my phone's brightness is way off now. Cleared data and uninstalled but still broke. The brightness is way to low on lowest setting. And when you slide the brightness slider up, it doesn't even change till about halfway and never gets to max even when all the way up.

Restored a backup I made a couple of days ago. Good to go.

VS98714A Update, any thoughts??

:fingers-crossed: Great, now I can see "Fast Charging" on the Lock Screen?? Really?? I pretty much know by now when device is "fast" charging!! Hopefully the update did more then that!! (Worse, I do not use the Lock Screen.)
Supposedly there are security updates also? I really don't see much difference but I installed the update because I want LG and Verizon to be happy! <G>
I got the update last week. It broke the wallpapers. Only live wallpapers work now. Regular pictures just show up Ashland screen. Also when I click on some text boxes the curser will blink in the box but the keyboard does not show up. Always seems to happen at the worst time.

Post above should read "show up as a black screen". Not Ashland screen. I cannot edit from the new version of app. Says edit failed.
VS98715A just pulled down to mine. Wonder if it addresses the wallpaper issues?

Force Touch (correct term?) not working.

Hi all,
Has anyone else noticed that their force touch on icons is not working? I cannot get the menu that asks if I want to delete or uninstall etc anymore. When I long press it does allow me to move the icons and if I force touch on a blank part of the screen it does go to display settings.
Thanks, Dhatw.
Same issue
It happened with my phone last night as well, it is very annoying and I cannot find the solution, please, any suggestions would be great. I guess we are not the only ones, suppose something has updated.
Same thing
It is after touchwiz home updae, perhaps for Snapdragon versions only.

Just found the solution, change all animations in developer options (all if them) to NOT TO BE OFF.
Temporary solution
So, I found a temporary solution to this issue with a little research. In my case, I had all animations turned off in developer mode, if you turn them back on, the menu appears. I have no idea what the issue is, probably touchwiz's latest update. Changing animation to 0.5x in developer options solved the issue for me.

so i noticed it buzzes when i recieve notification, and for no reason at all, like even if my phone right next to me on the table and it mostly is, it keeps on buzzing, that is freaking annoying, even my wife complains.
There is a setting to only receive notifications whilst wearing only.

Try putting it in flight mode, see if that eliminates any connection issue that could be causing the notification buzz?

Have you tried turning off long vibration in the settings? I saw it under the battery menu.
---------- Post added at 04:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:59 AM ----------
Make sure the Samsung accessory service doesn't have battery optimizations turned on in the settings on your phone. It can cause bluetooth issues and might be disconnecting and reconnecting.
Hope all this helps.

Unfortunately there is no battery optimisation in my phone since i have a flyme 7 system,
long vibration is off,
flight mode turns off all the notifications at all.
I guess you are right, it must do the bluetooth on/off just to piss me off, i searched the net for this issue on the flyme system but futile
i guess it has got something to do with the bluetooth on the watch itself, since even in standalone it does the buzz, unless you disable bluetooth
