Has anyone else noticed that Nearby Share toggle is gone? Have had it on 20 Ultra since getting it on the 18th, went to use it today and its gone.
Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk
Yep same here. That's odd.
When I went to use it, it was there. Clicked it nothing happened. Swiped down again it was gone. Strange thing is, I have it on 10+

Probably because it makes it a duplicate with the newly released Google's nearby share.
But it's strange that it disappeared by itself.

Same here... Can we not use this feature? I'm so confused. I saw on a video you're supposed to long press that icon to turn on the visibility, but it takes me to Google Play Services for some odd reason.
Hrmmmm

Not Nearby device scanning. That detects Bluetooth. Force mine did same thing, it was there, then when pressed nothing happened then the toggle vanished. It was present for maybe 3days and I used it all the time and loved it..

Yep same, the icon in tiles is grayed out but its turned on in network settings here also
I hope this doesn't turn out like dark mode for the main Google app on the S20 ultra. I had it available for a couple of days after launch, but then it was over two months before it was rolled out.
If the same thing is happening here and Google is controlling for devices, then perhaps the Note20 Ultra is too new for Nearby Share, and so the switch hasn't been flipped yet. I just hope we don't have to wait too long for Google to figure that out.

When I first got my Nexus 5, the nearby places search was working fine. For some reason, it randomly stops working now. Yesterday night, it was NOT working at all. I have the feature turned on in the dialer, location services enabled, accuracy set to high. Woke up this morning and it was working. Now I'm at work and it seems to not be working again... Does anyone know what the hell is going on?

I am having the same issue but I haven't seen it work at all yet.
Same issue here.
Google is probably performing an update to the service I'm tipping.
Funny thing is before getting my N5 I was running the N5 port on my N4 and the dialer app worked properly. Now I actually have an N5 and nothing is showing except my own contacts. Hope Google fixes this.

Fixed itself over night and now working. Different problem now. Once I'm done talking the screen which shows who I just talked to doesn't go away by itself, pressing back button doesn't help either. Only pressing home button takes you to home screen. :silly:

Just got my Samsung Gear s2 today and love it so far except for s health. I can't get anything to work. I've been walking all over the place and it's not registering any steps. When I do my heart rate it says try again and nothing registers. I've been researching this for a couple of hours now and I keep coming across something that talks about the s health manager and I have yest to find that. Is it something on my phone or on the watch itself.? What am I doing wrong?
What phone are you using? S Health features only work with Samsung phones.

Really? Well, that is good news for people who do not have a Samsung phone. I read it in a review of the GS2 and originally the S Health app was only available through the Samsung app store. I double checked and it is indeed now available in Google Play.
Thanks for this insight!

I am using a Samsung mega. I finally got it to work. Well what I should say is I went back and did a factory reset and then it worked fine. Now if I can just figure out how to make the sleep quality part work. All it registers is how many hours I sleep (or don't sleep) and I have to put that in manually.

It doesn't track sleep like you are looking for. I'm guessing that may be coming in a future update.

The first one I had did the same thing yours did. I had to reset it to get steps and heart rate to work. I had lots of trouble with notifications on this watch as well and was having to reset it all the time. I took it back and swapped it and the second one has worked near perfect. I think it has only missed one notification so far and the other one was about 50/50. I would watch it close and return it if need be while you can.
Per this patch note http://www.verizonwireless.com/support/lg-v10-update/?skiptag=1 looks like Verizon will be getting marshmallow on their LG V10 beginning today. Will other carriers follow? I have reached out to T-Mobile for more information on the progress of theirs.

fingerprint scanner borked after update?
scanner doesn't unlock phone unless phone was locked by the timer..? if i turn off the screen or close it with the power button, it won't unlock with the finger print scanner... anyone else? (i've dropped and readded fingerprints, both as a result of deleting and readding as well as adding them as a result of turning off and back on the pin code)

Experiencing the same issue here...
After a reboot I cannot unlock with fingerprint, after the initial unlock it works fine.
I know for a fact my carrier will not be getting this update. I use a regional carrier and they never push out updates, the only way I'm ever able to update my phone is if a Verizon update works on it, or a bootloader unlock becomes available and I can flash an updated ROM.

I really don't notice much different after the update. I wonder if lg/Verizon blocked some of the features. For example, I don't have the option to format the SD card as internal storage.

Doze and finger print. Scanner compatibility are the only two major upgrades..
Sent from my LG-H961N using Tapatalk
For those having fingerprint unlock troubles here, I'll simply note that in the Verizon V10 forum they've only been reporting improved fingerprint scanners. Not sure why you both are having that issue, but it by no means common, and it is unlikely that solely the update caused the problem.
This update screwed up the bluetooth again that they fixed in the little scanner update a few months back, it no longer will play music from my 2014 Chevy Silverado via mylink, it connects fine, shows the music playing, but no sound will come from the speakers
Carrier models are being updated ahead of international variant, coming from HTC I see this very oddly.

The fingerprint scanner didn't unlock consistently after the update for me, I was running Nova prime, I reverted back to the stock launcher and the issue disappeared.
the issue with the fingerprint scanner is due to nova launcher... if you remove it, it will work just fine... until nova updates, thats the only option!
I was watching a video of tips and tricks for this phone and I saw one tip and now I can not find it in settings. The tip was that you could schedule the phone to auto restart. Just had to pick the day and time and frequency. I have searched all through phone and I just can't find it. I then searched for video I watched and I can't find that now. Anyone offer some assistance please.

Actually it defaults to once every 24 hours if you don't schedule it yourself. I bet a few of them think they have an issue because of this.

Maybe on your US-device, but NOT on the international one (SM-G955F)!
When "once in a week" is not set, it won't restart every day!
Can someone tell me the benefit of auto restart? I can do this on my phone but not sure for the benefit.
No need for that. My phone restarts on its own like every other day...
Can someone tell me if the AT&T model supports this feature or did they remove it?

It is in the AT&T model.
A great feature of the settings panel is the lookingglas. You can search for keywords and directs you to the relevant setting or section.
Feature enabled but no restart
I have it set restart ok Mondays at 5am but nothing happens. To test I've set it for 10 minutes in the future and set the phone down. Nothing happens. Factory reset and still nothing. Any idea? Does anyone know the package responsible for this feature?
Is anyone else having this problem? I have checked to make sure everything is turned on and it looks fine but I am not getting anything when i get a notification.

I came here looking for the exact same thing. It's been driving me crazy since I got the phone yesterday. It seems to be very random too, like sometimes it works and other times it doesn't. I've also noticed that heads up notifications aren't working. For example, when I get a Facebook message, it used to activate the edge lighting as well as give me a heads up containing a snippet of the message on my S10+, and now all I get is a quick vibration. It's so irritating and tbh, I'm glad it's not just me! Looks to be a bug. ??*
Not sure if you use it or not, but I've always used "Edge lighting fix for all apps" from the play store and also "Edge lighting+" from the Good Lock app. Those two apps have been the perfect combination for my phone until I got the N20U.
Does your edge lighting work with the screen off? Mine seems to, but again it's random. :/
Hi I am using a 3rd-party app aodNotify it works well on note 20 ultra & 10 plus.

Mine isn't working at all. I read on the Samsung forums that it was due to turning off animations in the developer options but I haven't done this.

Try Edge Lighting Plus in the Samsung Good Lock suite. Assuming they have updated Good Lock for the Note 20 ?
Good Lock is a must for any Galaxy phone regardless, lots of stuff to customise your phone!

I don't think it's a setting. My wife also got the N20U and hers has the same problem. I'm thinking it's a bug in the FW.
I'll give aodNotify a try and see if it fixes mine too. It's driving me crazy!
On a different topic, do you have Facebook installed on your phone? If so, are you getting notifications from it? I've noticed I'm not getting any until I open the app up and then they show up. I disabled battery optimization and made sure it's not being put to sleep, but it's still not working. I also uninstalled/reinstalled and no change.
Very strange behavior.
Works fine for me. One thing to note that by default only 1 application is set to use this (Messages if I remember rightly). Search for 'Edge Lighting' in settings and then select 'Choose Apps' and then toggle which apps you'd like to see this for.

I think I may have figured it out! I moved my SD card over to the new phone from my old one and in it is an Android folder that was causing something to conflict.
As soon as I moved my stuff over to internal storage (minus the Android directory) and then formatted the SD card, I received a crap load of "pending" notifications (including Facebook lol) and my edge lighting seems to be working again! I then moved everything back to the SD card and rebooted and so far, so good! I'll keep an eye on it to be sure. But if you moved your SD card from your old phone, give this a try and let me know if it fixes your issue too!

Interesting! I put a new SD card into this phone as my previous one was pretty old it's still currently empty.

Can you check 'Accessibility' --> 'Visibility enhancement' and then check if 'remove animation' is turned on or off. I had turned it off and the edge lighting stopped working for me. Instead i toggled 'remove animation' off and in 'Advanced setting' selected 'reduce animation. Not sure if you had looked at these already..
PS- i am in UK. So have the exynos variant
