Edge Screen Issue

Is anybody finding it very easy to accidently catch skin on the edge of the screen and this interact with the device? I never had this issue with the S6 Edge but I'm finding sometimes whilst I'm typing or selecting things the phone will lag because it's detecting a second touch from my hand where I'm holding it.
I thought maybe this could be software related as surely something will be built in to cut out accidental touches?

I have this issue when using the camera. The phone would not take a photo or do touch to focus because it would feel a slight touch somewhere the edge...

I guess you need that separation from Palm to screen.

Haptic feedback randomly stops working until reboot

Randomly my haptic feedback stops and won't come back until I reboot. Anyone else have this issue?
Yes. It's annoying. Don't understand why. Also my apps well randomly not be available. I have to uninstall and reinstall. Super frustrating

Just experienced this for the first time today... Hopefully a software update can correct

Mine all of a sudden went super weak. I have it turned up all the way in the settings. Not sure what's going on.

I feel like Samsung phones are RPG based and they only have a certain amount of points to use so they take the IR Blaster and add the SD slot back, they add water resistance and locked the boot loader. Why can't they just give without taking?

This happens to me as well. Is this a software issue? I have an international version, though.

Screen Off app that doesn't ask for pass code?

I keep my s7 edge unlocked with my Gear S2 watch, but all the Screen Off apps activate pass code sign in when turning the screen back on. Is this a Marshmallow limitation? Thanks.

Id say no to that, as it was the last update to our phones that activated this problem, it wasn't there before!

I have this and is OK. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.iglint.android.screenlockpro
Just check the box with Marshmallow and Lollipop in app's settings.

This one works with gestures on Nova and does not require passcode after using it (the screen goes black and there is a 4 second delay to actually lock the screen):

Nova with root access instead of admin access does not ask for pin/passcode and can login with fingerprint

I thought it worked, but it just puts the screen to sleep while the phone is still active underneath and won't actually turn off the phone

Thanks. Unfortunately I have the T-Mobile variant and I like Samsung Pay too much.

The screen turn off and the phone will lock n sleep after about 4s. It won't stay awake. You actually don't have any other choice except if u wanna use the power button or root. This is a marshmallow security feature.

Nova with root works great[emoji4] no pin, passcode or password is needed. Just only fingerprint [emoji4]

Notification bar layout changes constantly

Hi, I have a little bug on my Samsung S7 edge that I had on my S4, S5, S6 and now on my S7 edge.
As you can see in the images attached the layout of the notification bar constantly changes(stock and Good Lock). I think that is something like a little bug, this is a little bit annoying for me...
Do you know if there is a way to send this issue to the Samsung Developer Team?
Thank you!
Could be to help prevent amoled burn in.

Really? So, it's not a bug but a feature preventing burn in?
Could be.
