Re: Galaxy s7 screen dimming??? I know in the future, I'm going to disable software updates until I see if people are complaining.

Re: Galaxy s7 screen dimming??? It's a Samsung issue. I never had a problem with this until the 8.0 update. I've turned off smart stay and power saving, I've never used adaptive display or auto brightness, I have no apps that affect brightness, I use BK Disabler, and I have done a factory...

Hope someone has a suggestion for this. Its really getting to be annoying. ??????

Since my AT&T S7 received the Oreo update, my call screen now goes dim whenever I'm on a call for a few seconds, then black seconds later. I can have it on speaker, in a well lit room, on or off wifi or bluetooth, and it always does it. I have to press the power or home button to turn the screen...

Old thread but throwing out my opinion for anyone else wondering about ADW. I never used the first version. Went through most launchers before I settled with Next because it had the customization I wanted. Had it on my S4 up to my current S7. But the developer abandoned it and the Oreo update...

Ok this is an old thread but it might help someone. I like a large phone icon so it stands out from the others. I use Desktop Visualizer on the Play store. It is actually a widget that you assign an icon or graphic to, then assign the app or other function it will launch when pressed. Have used...

Got it last week. Not to impressed. It changed settings and has one missing feature I used a lot in the gallery.

What is RCP and why should I care? https://www.modumind.com/what-is-rcp/ Bottom line, if you're not a developer, you wont use it. It comes preinstalled, system app.

If you hold the power button in about 8 seconds, it should turn off. Try connecting it to a computer USB port, not a wall charger and turning it on.

Thank you Deezell! Never thought of that and have been wanting to move some tabs I keep open.

Mine isn't browser related but app related. Rather than try to figure out which app, I use BK Disabler, made for my Samsung and kill any Analytics, App Measurement and Campaign Tracking services and it stops. I just reset my phone and they started again but after importing my settings it stopped...

On a Samsung Galaxy S7, when I tap a video in Facebook Messenger it opens the video in full screen and shows a progress bar and pause button. Tapping the pause button will pause/play the video, but if I try to slide or tap the progress bar it closes the video and goes back to the message with...

Its an issue with Nougat. Google won't fix til Sept. 21 and refuses to say why. I have no backups and need to reset phone now to fix issue. Just spent hour on chat because they will only give phone support to business customers and basically said they're numbskulls without a clue. Mine says...

Woo hoo! The screen was VERY frustrating. Even without a screen protector. I had my touch sensitivityturned up on my previous phone but I could hardly do a thing with this one. I downloaded SGS and set it to 100 and it works like it should now. Thank you!

I'm already rooted but haven't found a way to dim it or even make it black. Either is preferable. Especially if you may be in a dark room with others you don't want to disturb and you need to reboot, that glaring white lights up the whole room. There's been times even accidentally pressing...
