I got the G950WVLU1AQI3 update today and noticed even though the little dot shows on the nav bar, pressing it doesn't do anything. I don't mind not having it hidden but it's also defaulting to an ugly white background Is it just me?
Double click it
Thanks, it never used to be like that.

Been like that since last 2 updates
It's single click on mine, double click does nothing.
Mine was single click until last update so...things change.
It was changed to double-click to alleviate accidental clicks.

anyone else notice that the grid used for widget/app shortcut placement is gone now with 3.1? not a big deal but I kind of liked what it looked like.. anyone else lose this? Other than that i like the updates subtle differences..

Try This
Have you tried turning it off and on again?
If you are talking about the grid of +'s that show up when you want to move a widget or shortcut, its not gone. It is, however pretty faint (especially if you have a whitish/blueish wallpaper), and it also only shows up in the general area around the item you are moving, not the whole panel. For example, if you are holding an item all the way on the right of the screen, there will be a grid there but nothing on the left side.
I guess there could be something wrong on your installation, but check again to be sure.
What is this grid you speak of? I have no grid in 3.0 or 3.1
Not gone on mine, and it's meant to be there, so it sounds like you have installed something that has removed it.

About every twelfth time I pull down my notifications, the bottom half shows the app behind it. After about a second, the bottom changes to display the notification pull-down properly. Any ideas?
Edit: I forgot to mention I'm stock towelrooted, but had the same problem unrooted.

Same issue, though I have grown to ignore it.
First off the S8+ is gorgeous yada yada.....but here are some of my observations.
a) Notifications show at top as an icon but there is no preview, floating notification or anything of the sort to let me know if I care or not about the notification without pulling the tray.
b) Tray is white and hard to read. There doesn't seem to be clear breaks in between the notifications so everything runs together rather than a hard line separation.
c) The notifications on the lock screen are simply small icons with no detail, even though I have the "Notifications Icons only" unchecked in settings
d) Touchwiz doesn't rotate to landscape. Everything is customizable enough so Samsung doesn't have me running to replace with a launcher but I need it to rotate. May revert back to Nova......
I have the same issue with a). For c) double tap the home button and it takes you to lock screen with notifications. The icons are for AOD.

My complaints so far are Fingerprint scanner location, and the Bixby button. Why not just make an app for Bixby? If it's good, people will use it. If not, it's cause it sucks. To add a physical button locked to Bixby is just friggin lazy. Apple wouldn't even do that.
Update:
Thanks for the tip on the double tap of the home button on the lock screen.
Another issue is there is no way to programatically pull down the tray without dislocating my thumb. I installed a third party floating widget that fixes this.

Swipe down on the fingerpint sensor and it brings the notification shade down and you can swipe it back up. Very h andy

Nova and other third party launchers let you pull down the tray by swiping down anywhere on the screen.
Go to touchwiz settings, enable the apps button (this disables the pull down to apps). The pull down gesture will now open app the notification tray.
Where do you even find TouchWiz settings?

Long press the home screen or pinch zoom in home screen, you will get option for widgets, and launcher settings
But notification gesture is not working..

Yep, turning that on didn't work for the notification shade. That's why I asked if there was some setting I missed

Right, but we are talking about swiping down on the screen to get the notification tray, not the fingerprint reader, which does not appear possible like one user said it would.

I'm a dork. I didn't pay enough attention. I thought the question was in relation to the earlier mention of the fingerprint scanner swipe.

Haha oh! I got so excited for that, couldn't find it anywhere

I tried finding the swipe down on home screen too to no avail. I really do sort of like the fingerprint swipe though since it works from anywhere.

Is there a way to turn off the suggested/frequently used apps in the recents screen.?
I'm on Verizon and noticed it today (April 11, 2019) update that rolled out? View attachment 4740921

Three dot menu in the finder search bar at the top.
Or try Samsungs Good Lock App, it's called task changer, then u can customize it the way u want. Good Lock includes loads of apps to help you customize the phone the way u want.

Mildly infuriating me that I've got my icons perfect size & using the LineX icon pack but whenever I go on to the recents page I have the standard icons which are also huge, any ideas?
It was a sore eye for me to see different sizes too so I turned off suggested apps, go to the 3 dots menu then settings from the recent page.

Yeah it sucks, I did turn off suggested apps briefly but I actually find them useful, hopefully a workaround is found or something, thanks for the suggestion though!

Unfortunately it seems so from the disclaimer on the Play Store
