[Q] Multi Window Not Enabled - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Just got the Galaxy S4 from Spring and for some reason I'm not being able to turn on the multi-window setting. Go into the settings, see the unchecked box and won't let me check it. Tried holding the back button from the home screen to bring up that side bar, but no dice. Anyone have an issue like this?

Try turning it on from the toggle in the pulldown bar toggles.

Yeah I've tried that as well and no dice.

How about holding down the back button?

No quick settings in Notification Panel!

I don't know what's happened or going on, but I jave no quick settings in the notification panel!
Even in the settings part on the panel, it's completely void of any toggles to select.
I've just set up the phone to how I like it, so I'd REALLY like to avoid a factory reset if possible (assuming that would fix it)
Any help would be appreciated.
Did you check the main settings to make sure they didn't get disabled?

That is all completely blank, and when you tap that red circled settings button, no icons show up in the screen that takes you to either.

How can you disable them?
I'm sure I didn't do that.
I had exactly the same problem after doing a factory reset. But another factory reset fixed it..
You'll lose your data, so back up first.

yup
it happens on galaxy s III too
But don't worry about it
it s about laggy launcher and some bugs in launcher.apk (stock)
use another launcher or reinstall another stock launcher
or completely flash ur rom
:good:
Ohh well I guess need to wait..

[Q] Camera voice commands?

The Galaxy S4 had camera voice commands to take a picture.
I cannot find this feature in the S5. Does it exist? If so, how is it enabled?
It's in the camera app. Hit the settings button and it should be all the way down on the right. It says voice control.

Yeh try this man i hope it works for you..
Hmm...I've looked all thru the camera settings on mine and I don't have that voice command feature. Is it possible I need to enable a something in the system settings?
The settings scroll.... That stumped me for a while as well since it's not in the first page of settings.

When I had brought up the settings in the camera I couldn't see the voice command option. I didn't know the settings scroll...just scroll down and you will see it.

Chrome browser button weirdness?

Not sure if this is just an S5 thing or a chrome thing, but I have noticed that my 'settings' button and 'tabs' button are now on the top right hand side of the address bar and the blue loading bar slides in from the right hand side and not the left. It's like everything has been reversed??
Everything works ok, but I am used to the buttons being on the right hand side.
Can anyone confirm if I have changed a setting somewhere on my phone or if chrome has changed things around?
Thanks.

Thats a toolbox button.
this is a quick button to open other programs.

Ignore the toolbox button as that's not the problem... I mean the address bar and buttons at the top of the screen in chrome are reversed and I can't swap them back.
The settings button and tabs button should be on the right hand side of the address bar.

Screensaver not working?

I'm running the lastest U firmware and for the life of me i can not get the screensaver to work while it charging? Any help would be appreciated.

Ether turn off always on display or let the screen time all the way out. The screen saver will not turn on if aod starts. That was my issue anyway. Good luck.
I have AOD turned off & let the screen timeout and let it sit and the screen saver never turned on?
Sent from my SM-G935U using Tapatalk
I've been having this same problem! I'm currently running the U firmware on an att edge. When we go into screensaver settings, the "More" button isn't there, just "Preview". Therefore, we can't set the phone to use the screensaver while charging, its only set to do it while docked. Anybody know of any way to make that "More" button appear or perhaps another way to get into those particular settings?
Yep same here only the preview button shows
