Help! Can't unpin an app! - Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers

I am using the Samsung navigation gestures and pinned an app to the screen. To unpin the app, the dialog box says to "swipe up and hold." I can't get that to work. Maybe I am doing it wrong? I also have Samsung Pay swipe up from home screen feature so could that be interfering? I seem to remember on another phone, when I pinned an app, it automatically returned to the button nav so I could hold the back and recents at the same time to unpin...
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Swipe from edge of bottom center screen and up you will feel a vibration if you did it right.
Also samsung pay only interfere if you swipe from bottom on home screen and that can be disabled so samsung pay only can be swiped from bottom on lock screen and while screen is off instead.

How to disable the Tap Notification Bar to Lock Screen/Open Task Manager ?

EDIT: Tap on the left do open Recently Apps. Sorry!
Hi im the user of Samsung Galaxy S3 Korea LTE (E210L) using DA Rom V3 (Note 4 UI).
I just flashed my new rom, so im having this problem.
How to Disable the Tap on the Right of Notification to Lock Screen and on the left to open Recently Apps ?
Hold on the Right also open Phone Options (Power Off / Restart menu)
I tap on the right of the notification bar, and that area is fade on, more Fade-White color than other area, its a small rectangle area. Then, it lock the screen.
I don't know if it has been scripted to my rom or not, i haven't found any app in my phone can do that, even Hidden App.
I have searched Google, with any possible word, haven't found anything.
Tap Notification to Turn Off Screen, Fade, there is something and someway to make it could be added!
Anyone can disable this ? My Power Button haven't broken and i don't want tap to lock screen.
Thank you!
Help me please

Access notification bar from home button dock?

When I had my LG G2 some time ago, I was able to customize the buttons on my dock. I was able to have a back, home, sadly no multitask button, but there was an option to have a button that would drop the notification bar.
I've been looking for an app, or solution since the Z5 is on the big side. I went through all the phones settings, but couldn't find the option. Anyone know of an app that may offer this functionality? I'm searching, but haven't found anything. I did find an app, but I'd rather a button added to my button dock that's always available.
Thanks
you would need root to do so.
Damn, is there any non root solution? Don't want to void warranty less than a week after buying it lol

you can install another launcher like nova launcher. There you can do everything. E.g. expand notification bar on swipe down or create shortcuts to open the bar...

Awesome, thanks for this. I already use nova launcher so looked through the settings. The best option I found was pressing the home button while already on the home screen and it'll drop the notification bar. Not exactly what I want, but gets the job done. The ideal solution would be to have a fourth, dedicated button beside the multitasking button that dropped the notification bar without having to be on the home screen. Just like the keyboard icon in the bottom right when a keyboard is open.
The G2 did this perfectly with the built in options. Wish about offered this on the stock Rom. Thanks for the tip GZA, at least I can do this from the home screen now.

What about swipe down on the home screen to open the notification bar?

Er, that's how Android has worked since at least Jellybean 4.1 (first Android version I ever had). Start with your finger just above the top of the screen and swipe down.

In Nova settings you find gestures and input. There is swipe down option. You can add expand notification there... But this feature could be in paid version only. Not sure...

Er that's how Android has always worked, and not what my question is. I'm looking for a solution to drop it without doing that as this phone is too tall.

Best option to long press or double tap to sleep

Hi guys. What do you think is the best option to lock the phone without using physical buttons?
Only renovate ice has a sort of rom control which allow to customize buttons. But that rom development being discontinued, i am searching for an alternative on pie as well
You can use Nova Launcher and easily set a gesture to activate screen lock. In my case, i have set double tap on homescreen to lock.
thank you, it is not the same exact way of locking screen just because you have to be into homescreen in order to do those gestures. Rom control let you lock while you are in apps.
By the way it is useful and better than nothing. Also, there is a an option that uses root to lock directly the screen instead of working around with a black screen and waiting for the system to lock it. Thank you very much!
I use softkey edge, you only have to swipe and press lock.
You can use badlock, one hand operation. There're a lot of options.

Can't add Google or Chrome shortcut to home screen

I'm having trouble finding out how to add a shortcut onto the home screen.
In Chrome I want to add a shortcut for a website as a home screen button. When I click the button "add to home screen" a notification popped up for a very short time and I could read it. It won't pop up again and I don't know what it wants me to do to solve the problem.
The same thing also happened with Google. I want to add Google weather to the home screen. In Google I searched weather and then tapped the option button, and click the add to home screen button. A quick notification popped up and disappeared again. I tried to add it over and over and nothing happens, no error notification either.
What options on permissions do I have to set?
Please help.
Sorry, not an answer to your question but as it's also home screen related, am I correct in saying there's currently no way to set which panel you want as your home screen? For instance if I want to have seven home screen panels but set the middle fourth to always return to upon launch?
I know I can use the app draw but I liked for instance, the ability with EMUI to be able to organise my apps/widgets so I could say, quickly swipe left from the home panel to see all my gaming apps grouped together, or quickly swipe the other way to see others easily.

SINGLE TAP to Answer Calls help???? How to REMOVE assistant menu completly?

Looking for HELP with a feature. Im comming from the s10 plus. I always used the function TAP to Swipe feature which is used for tapping to answer phone calls instead of sliding to answer. Its an option in the assistant menu. If you go to settings> accessibility> interaction and dexterity> assistant menu on> single tap to swipe… it can be turned on. But the problem is you cant get rid of the menu completly. On the s10 plus we was able to do this and hide it. Only option to hide it is slightly as an edge option.
Anyone know how to get rid of it completly while still allowing tap to swipe for answering phone calls?
I read your question over and over and looked at your screenshots and I really cannot work out what you mean.

Instead of swiping to answer phone calls you can just tap the answer button. Its activated thru the assisted menu. But when you activate it… it leaves a circle menu on the screen that you can put anywhere on the screen. There is an option to move it to the edge panel. You can see it on the picturr here i have it in the top right corner. On my s10 plus you can completly hide it while still being able to tap amd answer phone calls instead of sliding it to answer. Its called SINGLE TAP TO SWIPE.
OK, I am with you now.
I just checked on my Note 10+ and it's the same.
You can however hide the panel by dragging it to the top of the screen to the X that appears, this places the menu in the notification area, so although it cannot be hidden completely at least it no longer blocks your screen.
Once in the notification area, if you tap and hold the notification and then the gear icon, you can minimise it further there.
Hope this helps somewhat!

Its the same on the s10 plus which is what i am comming from. Youll get a accessability notification in the pull down bar but that can also be illiminated. On the note 20 ultra however when you hold down on the panel… there is no hide option. The only option im seeing is to put it on the edge panel… which is better but you can still see it.
I have the Note 10+ and use the Assistant Menu button to use single tap to answer calls. I could hide the button by holding and dragging it to the top of the home screen and releasing it when I see the X. Worked great. I recently updated my phone and it now has One UI 2.5. I cannot now hide the Assistant Menu button when I drag it to the top. Looks like the hide function has been removed. I don't like this at all. I don't like having to move the button around the screen to avoid interference with text, graphics, games, etc. Samsung needs to correct this ASAP!
You can either purchase "package disabler pro" and disable the accessibility app. Or you can go to settings>apps>all apps> scroll to accessibility then force stop the app and clear cache. It will stay hidden until you restart the phone. Make sure you have the single tap setting enabled first before you do this
