Hello,
I just got my new galaxy s7 edge, I find out that all the third party apps in-app brightness control aren't working, such as quick pic, mx player, pocket... The built in video player is working though. Volume control is working fine. Please help!
Thanks

What is your model (SM-G935F for example)? Are you using any apps like Lux, that controll the brightness of your screen automatically? Also make sure you don't have any Power Saving modes enabled.

Hi,
is there a way to access the quick settings in any app instead just on the home screen or something similar that shows volume, brightness and wifi? I tested "Sidebar" but it doesn't show whether wifi is on and also changes volume and brightness on touch instead of just showing the bar.
Basically i am looking for something like the "Slider Controls" small app for the Xperia Z plus the ability to turn wifi on/off.
Thank you

Two products you could try "GMD GestureControl" and/or "LMT".
With GMD I defined a customized gesture to bring up the volume overlay while in apps like MX Player allowing me to adjust the volume during playback. With LMT's PIE (see video) , I assigned a toggle to turn autobrightness on/off (Auto Brightness Switch) and a number of notification bar activities. So far with LMT I've only used the PIE overlay feature but it does a heck of a lot more as you can see in the video link.
Give them a test run, between the two products I think you can get what you need. They also work perfectly well with SideBar if you have already purchased that.
Good Luck
Hey everyone,
Just getting my note 10.1 setup and so far im loving it. Its my first tablet and the fact it has a stylus finally made having a tablet more practical for me. One thing I am not a fan of is that when I have the sound turned down to the lowest setting it is too loud. Is there any built in eq that I can use to scale the sound?
So far im using a downloaded app "Music Volume EQ" which is working but needs to be running and then it takes up space in my notifications bar which I really dont like.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

I don't know about this specific app, but most apps do have an option to disable notification entries in settings. I was fed up with the Skype app persistently displaying my online status in the notification tray until I noticed an option to disable it in the app's preferences.
'might wanna try looking for it there.
I love rooting my devices, but I try to keep them stock as long as possible when they are new because modding and tweaking start to become addictive. Now the bug has bitten me again and my device is rooted with more XPOSED modules than I can count. I've reached the point where I think I've found all the mods and tweaks that are available to me, so now I'd like to see if anyone else has a personal wish list of mods/tweaks they'd like to see for our devices. Here's my list (keep in mind, I'm running KitKat for the better battery performance):
View home screen and app drawer in landscape mode (yes - I know 3rd party launchers and Lollipop can do this, but I want it for stock KK launcher)
Truly separate navigation volume from media volume. Currently, Maps only lets you lower the navigation volume as compared to media, but sometimes, I want to turn the music down without also lowering the navigation voice.
I would like the notification pull-down menu to show quick settings automatically if no notifications are present. Gravity box has this tweak, but it doesn't seem to work.
If I was still running Lollipop, I'd want the ability to show the old power management graph. The new one uses too much screen real estate to show the useless portion of the graph (time remaining). We all would rather see more of the past history side of the graph that shows what has been draining the battery so we can stop it.
What's your wish list for mods/tweaks?
Double tap to wake that always works consistently in every situation... The earliest Firmware with which the phone was initially released had that. But since the first update it's hit or miss, when the phone was just laying around for some time.

Oh, and here's two more requests:
- The ability to take higher resolution panoramic photos (I think they're only 4mp by default)
- The ability to take horizontally scrolling panoramic photos while the phone is in the portrait orientation.
Hi everybody, my experience with my s7 edge it's been amazing so far until I faced a problem with rotation . The phone rotation works great with system apps and some 3rd party apps (almost all apps but not including games) if I use for example gallery on landscape it will rotate to the direction that I want , but when I'm using a game , I tested more than 10 games that only work on landscape and the screen won't rotate , by default it's on the left orientation I find this very frustrating because I'm always listening music with headphone and I'm more comfortable using my phone on landscape on the right side orientation, any suggestions? Yes I have auto rotate enabled !

Hello dears . I bough this watch 5 months ago and in the catalog and on the official web site they claims that the watch have an air gesture wake up feature . I tried to search my watch for that option but i didn't find any thing related . Can any watch owner help here
Usually the settings for the palm brightness is in the launcher settings. So drag the screen down for the top and swipe right. You should see all the wifi / bt settings etc and in these settings there will be a icon for hand bright screen on and off. Toggle this on and see if it works. Failing that, you could download the Universal Launcher from the Playstore and do the same with that.
You could also download a sensor app, that will display your sensor information in real time - just to check that your accelerometer is working correctly. I think the app is called Sensoroid.
Thanks alot
