Whatsup and overlapping problem - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

I'm trying to use Whatsup, and I can't see any shared photos because of the overlapping problem.
Everytime I open a photo that someone sent me I get a dialog telling me to define the overlapping settings, the a new window open with many programs and a slider on/off.
I try every positions on every app and I still can use Whatsup.
This also happens with more programs.
Can anyone help me with this very annoying problem.
I don't have root, and I'm still on Android 6.0.1.
Thanks

Do you use CF Auto or Lux? Wich Apps are in your list of overlaps

I don't use CF Auto or Lux, and I have many Apps on the list, more then 30 apps.

Ohh... okay
I know this Problem only with Auto-Brightness / Color-Filters / DPI Changer ... like LUX or CF Auto .. sorry anyone else an idea?

Ok, thanks anyway for your help.
I always had this problem with my S7E and never know how to fix it.

Auto Rotation problem?

hi im new here. i found out my sgs2 got auto-rotation problem. i turn off auto-rotation on notification bar. and also in display>off auto-rotation. But..it still ON automatically...anyone has a this problem?
is there any fix for this? thanks yaa..
What do you mean it's on automatically ? Some applications just don't obey this setting.
yeah.. when i open notification...it ON again. but in setting show OFF... hmm, why aaa??
eg: when i open setting or messaging...it horizontal and change back to vertical. and i have to OFF again Auto-rotation in notification...and ok for awhile.
if i reboot. it didnt save the auto-rotation setting. it keep ON...
I see .. I have no idea why it's doing that though .. mine does no such thing.
I had this problem when i used touchwiz, it doesnt seem to do it anymore when i switched over to launcherpro

[Q] Screen Rotation control, noob question

Hi guys, I use screen rotator ever since I started using android, but now I was trying to find the service or program that handles the task switch after you long press the home key so I could use the task switcher in the horizontal mode and I could not find any thing related to it, do any of you android experts now this answer?
Cheers
My screen auto-rotates in the task switcher, I haven't changed any settings on it. I just have the "screen rotation" turned on.
Is auto-rotating working everywhere else?

Hi, thanks for the reply, I always have auto rotate switched off, I just want a few apps to auto rotate like Gallery and Gmail, if I turn it on everything works fine, however I want to limit the apps that auto rotate thats why I use Smart Rotator, but I wanted to allow the stock "task switcher" to have the same behaviour... I´ve searched online a lot and still could not find which service or program handles this...

Sorry, I missunderstood you earlier. I looked into it a little too, but couldn't find the option to enable the "task switcher" either. Have you tried the app Tasker? You might be able to set up a profile to auto rotate when "task switcher" is open. I haven't tried it personally, so I don't know how much hassle it is, or if it'll even work.

[Q] Brightness problem 4.4 KitKat??

Any body else has noticed it? (KitKat)
Turn off auto brightness. Try sliding it slowly down
and when you met 60/255 values back-light will light stronger...
which is weird. It should constantly lowering the
back-light but 60 value breaks it.
It is really annoying if you have auto-brightness enabled
especially when you approach dark places. Brightness will lower
and than BAM! at 60 value it will x-rays your eyes
Any body know how to fix that?
anybody?
Try to disable "Content Adaptive Backlight"
You must make a shortcut of this app with the launcher [Nova launcher i.e.] or an app to create shortcuts
Also you can disable or change the settings of this. Test the settings that best suit you...
Meanwhile.. i'm in need for some help too

On the dialer of the phone type *#8702# to test your backlight.
If apears all in chinese, download GN_MMITest.apk and replace the one you have in /system/app.
Have you tried 3rd party apps?
Disable the "Content Adaptive Backlight" install this app Brightness Widget - Backlight! and manually set the level you want.
There could other apps that do this better, i just dont know. So if this app dont do the job as you intent search for another app to do so...
Take a look at this How to Improve Your And... and if that is your issue. They suggest a paying app, but if it suits your needs maybe you should consider it...
Hi,
I tried almost every 3th party app like Lux, Velis etc... but problem is still there!
GN_MMITest.apk you posted is not working it says "Connection problem or invalid MMI code"
Thanks for your further help.
Have you noticed it?
When brightness goes across 60 value it will lighten up instead dimming...
With auto brightness turned on.
It seams it is system or kernel bug...

If u have root access then try xposed's module Screen Filter.
Link:- https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/mod-screen-filter-t2893936
Thanks, but I read somewhere Xposed on KitKat cause boot loop...
So I am alone with that problem?
I'm installed xposed frameworks, and work fine, not all, but many modules work!
But, Screen filter no work, sorry! ?
Thanks anyway

Notification Problem

Hello Everybody
My P8 Lite Don't give me notification unless i open apps like whatsapp and viber and i marked show notification for them
any help please
You said, you've got the notification enabled for those apps, so there's only one thing that can cause problem, like this.
Go to your Settings > Power saving, then scroll down, and check the Protected apps menu.
Checked means it can run even if the screen is off.
Report back if it's worked for you, please.

Thx Man It Works For Me
I have whatsapp checked and I dont recieve the notifications, it is sudden.. I have to reset the phone.
It works fine and suddenly stops.
thks
same as @manuz89, if i reboot the phone it works but a few minutes later its bad again
i already have "normal" preset in battery settings, whatsapp its protected and all notification toggles are ON
im clearing cache right now and if it dont work i'll factory reset the phone
All other apps works properly, I think is a compatibility problem between Whatsapp and P8lite. Don't think factory reset will work
Before this phone, I had a S3 Mini, and that phone also had notification issues with WhatsApp...Maybe it's the app, not the phone
kitkat was fine, its the lollipop version with the problem.
But does this happen to everyone? Do you think someone will have an answer soon or we should just go back to kitkat.?
Thks
try changing your power mode to Normal, in case Smart is turning off a connection somewhere
Notification problem
I have the same problem - no notifications for whatsapp. All settings are correct. I.e. Notifications is allowed, power saving is normal, Whatsapp is protected. What else can I try? If I reset to factory will it delete all my photos etc?

No need factory reset. Anyway notifications of Viber(may be Whatsapp) do not work on this phone. You can easy resolve this bug with Light Flow - LED&Notifications. I use this method and work great!
unfortunately that app is not free. is there any other solutions. i did all those mentioned above including locking the app in the recent app tray. still, the problem persists. previously i used a xiaomi phone, it still had notifications although delayed for minutes
hi
just go to setting/screen lock& passwords/ screen lock style / and change it to default(magazine).
then you will see ( notification panel &notification turn on screen......) it will save the problem.
note : after you can change your lock screen picture and choose from your gallery.
Solved
Hello.

Notifications Issues Post Oreo Update

Hi,
Anyone experienced a problem with push notifications on Oreo? I've updated and now some apps are not giving me notifications.
Hangouts and Wordfued are the two I have experienced so far.
If you open the apps up and then go back to the home screen the notifications work. If you close them fro the app switcher screen they stop providing notifications.
Thanks
Andrew

Yes got tge same thing. Ebay, gumtree etc.
I'm dealing with this as well with Tumblr. :/
..and BBM.
More severe problem with whatsapp while the screen is off...
I found a way to get my tumblr notifications to work even after I've closed the app to stop it running in the background. It's not ideal, but until they release an official fix... Meh. Hopefully this works for you guys, too?
Settings
Apps & Notifications
Apps
Settings (The cog icon at the bottom)
Special Access
Ignore Battery Optimisation
Find your app and switch to Allow
And... done!
Again, I hope this works for you too.
It's strange because I still get twitter notifications despite not having to go through this for that app. Hmmn.
Does anyone know how to change the default notification sound for Twitter? It used to be in the settings under push notifications- it would let you select the tone, now it isn't there. I can't find the option in phone settings either- I have 8.0.0.369 (C432).

hi .you solve problem with notifications?

There is a number of guides online, none of which I've got to work. I think the bottom line is, you can't any more.

Over time all the apps that were not working have started working fine. Not sure if that is down to it knowing which apps to keep open or software updates or something else.
Apologies I can't help more.
