I have the Verizon Galaxy S5. I've seen screen shots of other S5 owners who have the Hotspot toggle. Is this another Verizon discard like the download booster?
(and yes I did the 2 finger swipe to see all the toggles not just the active buttons)

Try these methods - How to take Samsung Galaxy S4 screenshot?
Firstly, Mod if there is already a thread on this topic please move my post there.
I'm experiencing serious problems when trying to take a screenshot with the palm swipe. I had no problem whatsoever on my S III. I'm disabled & can't use the shortcut.
Ideas? TX

I find holding the power and the home button is more convenient for a screenshot, try that maybe?

Won't work for me as I have limited movement in my hands.

Is there anything blocking the sensor at the top? (Screen protector, case, etc)?

No. I have a Cimco TPU case (more like a sleeve) & it's not blocking the sensor.

I just tried the palm swipe and I realized I had to press on the screen with more force than on the S3 (I've tried both). Also I think air gesture has to be toggled on (as well as palm motion obviously )

Hmm. I'm pretty darn sure air gesture is toggled too but will check again. I'll also try pressing harder.

Just remembered to respond. Air Gesture was turned off. That said, I remember taking a few screenshots just after I got the phone & AG was definitely off. I also read a bit more about this feature. Supposedly you can hold a finger ~3" over the sensor & it'll activate. Not on my phone...

It's been my experience that I have to physically touch the screen in order for the screen wipe to take a screenshot. I've also found this feature somewhat unreliable as it sometimes moves the screen and then takes a shot of a screen that I have no interest in.

Exactly. I guess I'll see what Samsung has to say.

Hello everyone. Had my Note 3 for about a week now and I love it. A couple of things I've noticed and wonder if anyone else has this. I like to disable the animations in Developer Options so the phone feels more fluid. But for some reason the transition animations wont stay off. They always go back to 1. Second question. Just recently my 4Glte icon doesn't hide like it used to. It now sits next to my wifi icon for no real reason. Anyone else?

Was also confirmed by a lot of peeps here in xda including me of the transition animation bug

Ok that's good that it's not just me. So what about my 4Glte icon always being visible all of a sudden? Just some random bug?

mine will turn up later today but from the review I saw yesterday (video) the lockscreen did have a couple of widgets on it. There was a camera button bottom right and this particular review had the samsung tv app at the top of the lockscreen allowing him to adjust volume up and down and change channel.
Personally I don't have anything on my current S3 lockscreen other than the date and time but that's just me
All reviews I saw had a camera on the lock screen. Wtf!!! So angry

Have mine in front of me now Nd it has the camera on the lock screen and the Samsung tv remote

mine has the cam widget even with fingerprint lock screen
Must be the g900i
Sent from my SM-G900I using xda app-developers app
That sucks you can't even get the camera. I think I'd just turn off the lock screen at that point. You could also look into an app that puts shortcuts into the notification dropdown--I did this for a flashlight app because I missed having it in my quick settings on my last custom rom.

Indeed. I can't understand why they would take them away. Even my GS3 had this.

I have the same issue and spoke to samsung live chat and they said "Unfortunately the Australian models of the S5 do not have the feature where you can add a camera shortcut to the Lock Screen."
This sucks, ive tried using 3rd party apps and the shortcuts still wont work!
Im with vodafone AU
It's probably due to the CSC in Australia, this was an issues with other 4.x firmwares as well.
If someone is knox 0x1 already, maybe try flashing a different CSC from another region (maybe even a 4.3 to try it out)
Hello everyone. I am going to buy an axon 7 someday soon. And I have a question regarding the bell I read bothers some.
Does installing nova launcher allow for a better experience?
Sent from my Pixel using XDA-Developers mobile app
The thing with the bell is that you have to press the bell to see the notifications. Your notifications won't be there when you turn the screen on but will have to press the bell. That's all, it's not the end of the world. ..just one extra step to see your notification is all.

To be honest, I never see my lockscreen. I always use the fingerprint sensor.
The Bell will be optional in the next update,
