Why dont you post the full message.
I have a clue of what it might be, but I cant be ceirtan..

It's a shield in my notification bar and a message pops up saying just stopped an app from accessing your information with an option to view apps but it takes you to all your apps and doesn't identify which app..

Go to setting,general,about device, check for the latest software update. Mine are solved after installing the latest MJ7 firmware.

Is that not knox doing its 'thang'?

Yep, that's Knox.

It's either Knox or if you're on T-Mobile it's Lookout. Is the shield a gold color or is it green?

[Q] quick toggles disappeared

Got my shiny s4 the other day, all working well.
Now I did get an ota yesterday, don't know if this has anything to do with my issue.
The first day I could pull down the notifications area with two fingers to get all the quick settings.
Then there was all twenty or so toggles.
Now it's just the 7 basic ones.
And I can't add more from the settings, unless there is some hidden menus...
Any help appreciated!

I also have this issue. I had loads of toggles when first got phone then all of a sudden I only have 7. No toggle for air view, ect
Okay, good to know I'm not they only one...
But what to do?
Going for root and a custom Rom as soon as there is somethin stable out there.

Wild guess, have you turned on Talkback under Accessibility?
Nope, no talkback...
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda premium
Mine all disappeared once, and I had no toggles at all.
A factory reset brought them back up again.
Did you root and backup?

Owner info disappearing from lock screen

Is anyone else having the problem where the owner information is not appearing on the lock screen? (not the personal message, that is working ok for me)
Mine will be there after a reboot, but sometime over the next few hours it will stop appearing on the lock screen. A reboot will make I appear again.
Not sure if it is an app conflict or a system bug that may get fixed in a future update.
Thanks,
Rich

I have the same problem. I searched some other forums. There seems to be a lot of people having the same problem. However, I could not find any decent solution.

Yes, I'm having the same problem. My info stays for a couple of days or so after a reboot, then it just disappears. I was wonder if that was my phone's way of telling me it's time for a reboot, but I was doing a search on it in case there was something else to keep it from happening. Right now I'm treating it like a "Check Engine" light.
Weird, it happens to mine as well.. I didn't notice until I read this thread and had a look! Very strange..

New message wake

I may be missing it, but does anybody see an option that won't wake the screen when a new message comes in?

Dang, seriously? I guess I'm so used to rooted phones that I didn't realize that wasn't just a general setting. We need root bad.

For SMS/MMS, I installed Textra and turned off the native messaging app. Textra allows you to not wake up the screen in settings. Not exactly a fix, but I'm liking the app so far.

Not really sure. If it's in the middle then it could be crt off effect. But your phone must be rooted to do that

Try the test menu and check your display. Possibly a screen issue.

Type * #0* # (no spaces)
Then check the screen. -- possibly just a screen effect though if only when locking/unlocking.

I'am having the same problem aswell. It is really annoying. My phone is just 2 days old.
Edit: I have contacted to samsung and they toldme to bring the phone to a service center. I've been told I have a rigt to request a new phone or refund. I couldnt decide what I want to do. Because I really like this phone but there are alot of problems whit it. Apart from that screen problem. My phone freezes and restarts itself ramdomly and there is a problem with wifi connectivity
