dual shot won't work

Hey I was trying the camera on the note 3 and it won't let me click dual shot button ? It worked before because when I got the phone I tried it also I did the new software update last night maybe that did somthing

Same here. And camera is slowest than my note 2 and even my old s2. One once processing, once not. Both ways is super slow.

I fixed it go into manage app for camera and clear data then it works

I had the same..had to click front camera and set auto..then back camera to auto. It then let me use dual shot!!!

it happens because your video recorder is set in 4k format you need to set a lower resolution and then the camera will allow you to use dual shot function

Camera Zooming

This is my first device where it will not focus on up close shoots. Have never had an issue with taking pics within an inch or two on all of my past devices, the note 2 being my last device. Any suggestions?

Just Turn on the Zoom option and touch your N3 screen then your camera will make focus and captured the pic.

Not sure what option your talking about. Most of my devices defaulted on touch to focus my N3 does that but still it's the worst camera thus far.

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!

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]

edge features

Does the s8 have the edge features that the s7e had? They mentioned that the edge was less this year so what can it do? How do the notifications work? Can the edges pulsate and animate colors? Is that only when the phone is face down?

S8 will have Same features like s7e Just they made some modification and updated some apps thats it. both s7 and s8 have 7.0 nougat you also can install s8 apps when they are available to public

Night clock still there?

The really should have stuck with a proper independent Edge screen like the original Note Edge.

I've ordered a new note edge... Primarily because of that independent Edge screen. Makes life so much easier with a big phone.

Are there 3rd party apps that let you do more with the edge like illuminate them when face up

I saw a demo unit and the edge lighting settings implies it works face up

Is it possibile to launch Tasker tasks from the edge panel on S7/S8? I looked for info but couldn't find a clear answer.

@Chronocento
There is an app for shortcuts, apps, direct dial etc in Samsung App store for edge. I'm using it with a S6.

As above poster. Also you could export anything Tasker-made as an app and just use it in the apps edge panel.

Is the main screen still hidden when the edge is being used

Portrait like mode for LG G6 camera?

Sorry if this is a repost but didn't find anything. Is there a portrait mode, or something similar on the stock LGG6 camera app? Or is there a way to get the same effect?

You can use manual camera and manual focus. But there's no setting that does it automatically.
