Not Receiving Notifications and Poor Screen Response - Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So after years of trying to convince my wife to make the switch from Apple, she did. She purchased an S6 Edge+ after I promised her they were a great phone.
Now I look an idiot. She doesn't receive push notifications on SMS< Whatsapp, Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram etcera. Her screen is also laggy as hell, sometimes not registering swipe gesture.
She is running pure stock, not rooted and has Nova launcher installed.
Anyone had experience with this, or know how to fix the issue?

Try a factory reset and if that don't work you can install the latest firmware. If that dint work you can go to deal guarantee.

is this some kind of virus or this is latest advertisment mode from google play?

You're using Go SMS Pro, aren't you? It's a common complaint by Go SMS Pro users since its latest update, its Google Play reviews are full of it. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jb.gosms&hl=en
Uninstalling Go SMS Pro will remove this ad-ware.
@ShadowLea thx man you're right that i have go sms pro, i've used this app by very long time and now they give me nasty adverts....i think to uninstall...
anyway thanked to you for quick response :good:
after many complaints, go sms dev team announced today that they removed intrusive adverts and send many apollogies to fans, so i've updated today to last version and everything is good

Lag on recent apps

Hi everybody, since I am on lollipop, there is this annoying lag when opening recent apps. I think everybody has this. In my case it takes between 3 to 5 secs until it opens. I can't stand that.
I already have chainfire s recent app installed but that doesn't work in my case.
My question is, if somebody has a fix or can give me a link to another Rom where the recent apps opens fast?
Help would be appreciated!
Regards

So you say that you never had a lag on lollipop, when opening recent apps?
That's strange!
Am I the only person with this problem?

Never, I tested it last night by opening about 15 apps, then hitting the home button after opening each one, so they all ended up as recent apps - then once back on the home screen, I hit the recent apps button and in under half a second it opened fine, nice smooth scrolling between them
The only thing that takes a bit longer to open for me, is the gallery, which is about 1-2 seconds opening time instead of instant, probably because I have hundreds of images saved
I'm using NOVA Launcher Prime if that makes any difference, TouchWiz is a laggy POS anyway, first thing I disable
Thanks for the info, perhaps nova is the cause, I will try that
@"detection"
Can you tell me if the Samsung widgets work on nova? Especially weather and splanner widget?
I have most of the Samsung bloat disabled / frozen so can't test
But I would imagine so, give it a try, NOVA is free, but you can buy the Prime version if you want extras, but for general use, the free version does everything and more than stock TouchWiz, and is 10x faster

Facebook app laggs and stuttering

Hi, does anyone else experiencing the constant stutters while using the Facebook app? I didn't expect the smoothness of iOS but for me it is so laggy that I can't stand it anymore. It's not fluid at all. And the worst is when I go to some Facebook group or page and try to scroll there. Everything on the phone works quite prefect. And I don't have any app like bixby remapper or something
To be honest with all the updates your best bet might be to do a factory reset....I was experiencing the lag before I cracked my screen last week....they wiped my phone and replaced the glass...I did a smart switch restore and now my phone doesn't lag

Trying to find a different Samsung Messaging APK, issues with stock version

Hiya. So I recently got a J3 Luna Pro on Straight Talk, and it's all been great except for a slight issue with two apps.
Those apps would be Email and Messaging, the navbar on the email has this weird spacing issue and the same issue persists on the text bar in the messages app.

see the odd gap between the bottom of the screen and the text? yeah, that's what's screwing with my brain right now.
asunaclient,com/i/20180307_163706.png
This issue happened in the Samsung Browser too but I was able to fix it by updating it to the latest version.
I don't know what I need to fix this though. Anyone?
Try to update it by downloading this Marshmallow version.

Might be impossible without root though. If this does not work switch over to Asus Messaging. Can get it from play store. From their Zenui phone series. It's pretty good. If you can't find it on play store here's a link :

Beta02 disable Bubbles, enable FB Messenger Chat heads?

Hey guys
I've had the Android 11 Beta 01 and now the beta 02, and the new Bubbles function is driving me insane... It errors out often, sometimes even makes mt phone randomly reboot, making it basically unusable.
For my work, I actually chat a lot through fb messenger with my colleagues, while I am sometimes on websites, mails, etc. The good old Chat Heads were so very useful for me, yet the forceful new Bubbles thingie is quite the opposite.
Does anyone know of a way to go back to the Chat Heads?
I have tried downloading off google older versions of Fb Messenger, but it didnt make any difference...
I am NOT rooted, running as stock as it gets, with the exception of using Lawnchair launcher instead of OP Launcher because I am very much accustomed to it.
Please help
Nothing? Nobody?
I don't have android 11 yet as I prefer stability however there has to be a notificationn setting against the app in settings / apps / notification.

Bubbles are not working properly on beta2 ...
For me also on messenger getting only heads up notifications ..
Even the old bubble notification on messenger is broken..
I'm on beta 2. surprisingly haven't faced issues with messenger.
I've disabled bubbles in general, but use them for FB Messenger. I'm having no issues.
EDIT: I'm using messenger beta, maybe they fxed something that's broken in the stable app.
You have to enable bubbles again - it's got it's own setting in Messenger. However, it is working fine for me on OB2
