Is there an adb command or something to remove the pill at the bottom? I'm used to being able to root to remove it. The P6P had a non-root method using adb too. Hoping there's something similar for the ultra.

Yes, there's a setting....
Use the search function in settings to locate "Gesture Hint" & toggle it off.

No problem....
What's messed up with the ADB method for the P6P is that it no longer works ( thanks Google ) & root is required for that now.
I like my P6P, but, the thrill has definitely left the building. If forced to choose between it & the S22 Ultra, or, the Note20 Ultra for that matter , it's no contest.
JMHO, the only thing that I prefer w/the P6P is the overall size. Otherwise, the S22 Ultra is my go-to daily driver.

Every pixel I've owned I've rooted. There are way too many things Google doesn't let you do on one. Honestly, I never thought I'd want another phone brand, but after being pushed back to Samsung due to the garbage fpr and modem, I'm not upset that I did now. I definitely miss some pixel only features, but I really like this ultra. I can do way more with it.

I'm unsure how system apps could be deleted without root, either via adb or within the Android itself. I'd be happy to be wrong though, as my Vodafone S7 will undoubtedly be full of Vodafone s**t I neither need or want. But disabling them would be better than nothing until root becomes available for the Exynos model.

Package disabler pro is pretty good, I just used it with the S7E also. However, be a little careful with it. On my S6E, I selected the "disable all bloatware" option and that thing turned off several packages that were necessary for VR to work and I had to trouble shoot.

That's why the Note 5 XML file is so great. Takes care of all the standard bloat without messing with the good stuff.

why wouldn't it stick? That's what I've been doing on my current S6 Edge and will do on my S7 edge. I also use Package Disabler but this app is useless as all it does, is exactly the same as what the guy does manually in the App Manager app.

I was only asking. My note 4 had the ability to disable apps in app manager. Soon as you reboot, they all come back. That's why I was asking if they fixed it yet
Sorry i dont have a link, but on /r/android and /r/galaxys7 people are reporting package disabler wrecks battery life. Fyi.
Hi just got this phone after a year of the Moto z force. There are several apps built in which don't allow to be disabled or uninstalled such as the Samsung calender. I was hoping there is a way to get rid of this using something called adb however I've never used this before. Would really appreciate if someone can post a link and point me in the right direction to rid these apps from my phone including a list on what is safe to remove.

I have tried ADB + Debloater app. I didn't work... only showed me 2 packages. Unlike Note 7 that still works with Debloater. Did not try anything else.
PD did not work with my firmware so i had to get BK. I bought both of them and I like PD more but again, it wont work on my phone so Im using BK. Almost just as good.

Thanks a lot: I'll try this app (but I don't want to remove Bixby: it looks interesting for me)
I want to provide a magisk module that makes it possible to use my app: Edge Sense Plus
Therefore I will hook into the Active Edge Service called ElmyraService in SystemUIGoogle.apk.
Probably we will need to modify services.jar too to bypass the signature check.
Who is interested in this, or would it be waste of time for me?
Would need testers too, since I don't have a Pixel 2.
You should be familar with adb, to push, pull files and taking logcats
Hangouts link: https://hangouts.google.com/group/6cSKdk3No2lNAMs62
From what I understand you would like to make it so you can assign your own actions to the edge squeeze button? I would be interested as I don't use Google Assistant, I have knowledge basic knowledge about abd push/pull.
I also have a Pixel 2 walleye, I would love to help if I'm understanding correctly. :good:

How about a Magisk module that let's us run Viper ROM on a Pixel 2?? Lol. Sorry couldn't resist. Came from an HTC 10 and really miss your work.
I´am willing to help!
I´ve gotten it to work by making my app a system app in order to be able to register the elmyra sensor without google assistant enabled.
The problem i encountered is that you will need to go in to the setting where you enable active edge in order for it to start working and it will stop working as soon as the settings app isnt active/in memory anymore.

Yeah, the squeeze sensor is just available for system apps.
Went that way first on the u11 too.
But having it work just for rooted users was no option for me.
On the u11 the squeeze actions are custumizable though.
So it is possible to let start apps on a short/long squeeze.
That way the squeeze gestures can be forwarded to my app.
Not possible on the pixel 2 though. That's why we need a magisk module with a modified Systemui apk that modifies 4th he elmyra service

Hey Jan. I'd be willing to give it a test.
Is there a way so these can overlap or stack a little? It is pretty stupid to have it only show one a page and have to cycle through them all to get to the other side. I've seen Samsungs that stack a lot better and it actually works. I don't really mind they are horizontal now but why don't they stack at all?
On a side note, is there any way to get my clock back on the left and maybe the data rate on the left on the status bar?
Never looked into that but it would be nice. I remember they used to be like that, or I had them like that somehow years ago at least.
Also, the clock is on the left, so I assume you meant right. I know it's possible with root and xposed. Might be possible only root. Not sure if you can do it without root.
Same with data rate, I know you can do it with root and xposed but not sure without.

Yeah I did get Gravity box working and the status bar fixed, still looking for a way to change the recents menu but I'm losing hope heh
If you do find a way, I'd love to know. I definitely wouldn't mind a recents menu like that again.
Also, never really looked at the GB settings for data rate but I'm glad I did to see if it worked. Got it so it shows me the rate only when my download is in the status bar.
Honestly haven't used GB since lollipop and KitKat days. 7pro first phone to have it in a long time for me.

I am now in love with Omnirom and Omniswitch, the vertical one is perfect and still slides and has screenshots, you can also add custom buttons and make it transparent or wte colors you want. There is also a horizontal version that is a lot more condensed without screenshots. See the pics attached. Fair warning though, on android 10 with these new roms you will lose your face unlock if you still have it.

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. :/

Try Edge Lighting Plus in the Samsung Good Lock suite. Assuming they have updated Good Lock for the Note 20 ?

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.

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!

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.
Your post made me want to try removing aodnotify and see what would happen. So far edge lighting works normally now. Not sure what the app changed but it seems to be working now. Thanks for testing things out with me!

Definitely something to check, I did but still didn't work for me. I noticed your UK flag, you have the exynos version? I ask as maybe it has something to do with the Exynos vs. Snapdragon processor?
@AthieN I don't have Facebook so I can't give any feedback on that.

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
