Nougat lock screen - photo feature removed? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers

My phone used to select 1 of 20 pictures randomly on my lock screen. I can't seem to find how to do that since upgrading to Nougat. Has anyone else tried? This used to work:

Freezes on Screen Rotation

Hi guys,
I've realized that 99% of the freezes (1 or 2 a week) of my HD2 are related to screen rotation. It happens to me most of the times while seeing photos, but it has happened also in email/sms and dialer.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Any suggestions on how can I try to fix it? (I know I can disable the auto screen rotation ).

GT-I9500 Bug - Lock-screen appears for a split second

Hello everyone,
I've been having this problem ever since I bought my phone 6 weeks ago.
I'm currently running XXUBMEA rooted stock ROM. And I've had this bug even before updating.
I searched the forums here but couldn't find anyone complaining about it, although I know a friend or mine who has the phone and is also facing it.
Sometimes the Lock-screen appears for a split second, during that, the brightness also goes to max. If it happens while I'm typing somewhere, the keyboard disappears, and I have to tap on the text box to make it appear again.
Also, sometimes it happens when I'm playing a game in landscape mode, the screen rotates to portrait just less than a second, and returns to normal.
It's very annoying, it happens to me daily, I'd say about 5-7 times.
Anyone else facing this?

Unlock screen distortion with multiple images

Is anyone else facing an issue with the unlock screen?
This has been an issue with all versions of Kit kat. My unlock screen shows up as 9 screens at random , but the touch is still normal.
Taking a screenshot, shows up as a normal unlock screen, and not the 3x3 matrix.
This issue goes away on locking and unlocking by pressing the power button.
Anyone else facing this issue?
Is it more likely a hardware problem, and warrants a screen replacement?
Also, my phone hangs for 20-30 seconds at times, especially with opening links in chrome from a Google now search. At this time, touch doesn't work, and the screen is frozen!

I have these issues sometimes. Can't understand the reason of it. Android 4.4, non LTE version
, Russia.
It only happened to me only one time where I was just locking the phone, but after that it hasn't come up yet and it's very quick. Yours is probably a issue since you can take a picture of it where to mine it's only for like 2 seconds. If your phone is under warranty you can get it swapped out.

SM-T331 double lock screen on calls, how to remove?

On my wife's SM-T331 shes gets a lock screen that appears when making a call. A double tap and swipe clears it for several seconds but then it returns. I've googled extensively and cannot find a fix for this.
Talkback is OFF.
There is talk of the proximity sensor possibly causing this but directed at the screen turning off rather than the lock screen. I have also failed to find any acces to the proximity sensor settinsgs.
Android 4.4.2
Any clues or extra info needed?
Has no one else come across this and found it annoying?
I still have my wife moaning about this rather odd feature.
Does anyone know of a fix?

Nougat lock screen swiping trouble

After my phone was updated to 7.0 (from fully stock), I have had trouble swiping to unlock my device, swiping to launch the camera, and even just swiping notifications away on the lock screen. The objects animate and drag with my finger, but it's like they're super elastic because they just snap back into place. Sometimes I have to swipe 4 or 5 times to unlock or complete an action.
I don't think this behavior occurs once it's unlocked, and I did do a factory reset from recovery after the 7.0 update.
Has anyone else noticed this or solved it? Thanks.

The factory update to 7.1.1 I installed this morning seems to have solved this issue. Hope it lasts.
