Replacement for NavStar - Samsung Galaxy S10e Questions & Answers

Since recent update, my S10E no longer supports NavStar. Is there any replacement app I could use that works with Fingerprint Scanner to shut screen off?
Thank You

I just use lawnchair launcher. It has a widget that can be set to lock the screen. Takes the space of one icon.

easy home app

Anyone using easy home app and have experience with the pro version. For those who don't know the app turns you home key into a capacitive button rather then a physical button. I don't know for sure but I've read that it supports the N5, S6, S6E, and S6E+. I have also read about N4, and S5 users using it. I really like the app and it works well. I really missed my OnePlus 2 home button.

Did you know that if you use the app you described you will no longer be able to
use the fingerprint security function unless you uninstall the app or totally disable it.
Good luck,
Have a Happy Merry Christmas.

I'm not quite sure I understand. When I try to bypass my lockscreen with any other fingers then I have setup in the fingerprint settings it will not unlock and prompts me to enter a backup password. So I'm not sure if they have fixed thas issue but lockscreen fingerprint login and last pass fingerprint login seem to be working fine for me.

You are 100% wrong and shouldn't mislead other people. I've been using the app since it was posted a few months ago by @Jawomo it works exactly as it should. I've been using it everyday for months with my fingerprint unlock and have never had a failed unlock.

It was really hit or miss for me. I only tried it for a few minutes, but it felt like it didn't work 100% of the time. I'll give it another shot.

Wake when message received?

Where is the option to have the screen wake when a message is received? Looked throughout the phone but must have missed it.
There's an app to do this but I forgot the name. Try check the AndroidQuestions subreddit

Install Light Manager app. It allows you to customize the notification led. One of the options is to turn the screen on when a notification comes in.

Exactly. Or just disable all Bixby processes with Package Disabler.
The Update is a 600mb package with a lot Bugfixes and optimizing.
Can confirm still working on Verizon with all updates. Mine is currently remapped to 1-click camera.

Yeah just need to reenable bixby via package disabler and restart . Button only responds to Bixby. Or disable and have a shiny useless button.
I have the T-Mobile variant so update may be different. Not really sure.

On Verizon with latest update and used All In One Gestures application to re-map the key. You can change it to any app you want.
Dont Work.

I'm on g955u Sprint and my remmaping still works
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
Can confirm TMobile does not work after update
Confirm that AT&T still works. No updates are breaking it yet.
Works but no update on AT&T. Only tells me one or two updates and it will stop. Currently 1 press is google now (wish I could remap to asst) and press hold is flashlight.
Woke up this morning and my remap is gone. No new update or anything. It'll work if I have the gesture app open but right when I close it, it goes back to bixby. Oh well guess ill just have a shiny useless button

yea. so much presumption from a supposedly witty and intelligent person.
the inclusion of the three new features were oblivious to me, so i thought maybe sharing would help others get started.

I just wish sammy would make edge lighting useful for notifications when the screen is off, and not just for their crap bundled apps either.

What does that have to do with edge lighting...
Anyway,
Edge Lighting > Manage Notification
Select apps you want edge lighting on, it is not restricted to "crappy built in apps"
A more useful thing to say would be, ' I wish edge lighting could be customised on a per app basis and show be useful for more situations such as if screen recording flash around edge of the device red or something to show you that you are recording with your device or camera or whatever, or they could use the notch LED ring to do something like this.

Here you go
Tried Goodlock + Notistar to enable "Eclipse effect" for camera cut out. It broke deep sleep and my phone went from 50% to 0% in 3 hours with screen off. The effect only works for a few seconds with no option to set a recurring reminder. Uninstalled it, but other features in this Goodlock update are great.

Using Holey Light instead with the battery saving blink animation is a better option, noticed less than 1% per hour drain

Rest of the apps are great with good lock!
Wow check out the no screenshots, i got you guys looking

You can activate it, but it doesn't do **** if the screen is off. Worthless as a notification.

ya i heard it won't work without aod
Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk
Even with aod always on, edge light set to always, edgelight+, notifications enabled. If I get a message on hangouts for example, the little icon appears on the aod screen but edge lighting does diddly. Same for the other non Samsung apps I've tried, not that there have been many I've tried thus far.
Now if I happen to have the phone unlocked and happen to be looking at hangouts and receive a message, edge lighting works as expected... but if I'm already staring at the app it kinda makes it pointless.

Weird Fingerprint sensor issue

i have bought a samsung note 10 lite 2 days ago, and i'm facing a problem with the fingerprint sensor, when i try to unlock the phone, it won't respond to my finger at all, i have to relock the screen and unlock it again to work
What could possibly be the reason ?
Thanks in advance
I have the exact same issue on my 10 lite. I gave up trying to figure it out. A friend of mine has 10 lite and he has no issues at all.
Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk
I have managed to fix it by setting show icon when screen is off to "on always on display"
Disable optimise battery for com.samsung.android.biometric and it should make the fingerprint faster and more reliable.
Has anyone figured this out? It's driving me crazy.
Sent from my SM-N770F using XDA Labs
Thanks. Fingerprint sensor is working much better now. Even more it's working like charm and now Im using it like it should always be

Wait I'm on One UI 2.1 and the system tells me that it is already up to date... How did you get 2.5 ?
It's rolling out now for some regions.

You can try other regions. My device is HongKong TGY I use it in United States on At&t but flashed Spain PHE firmware that is 2.5. I rooted it and it works just fine. And finger print is much better on 2.5
