I have the screen pinning feature enabled but when I tap the pin icon on recent menu, nothing happens, the app doesn't get pinned. Is the feature working for any of you?
To enable: Settings -> More -> Security and scroll down to the bottom where you'll find an option "Pin Windows"
PS: I'm on Android 5.0.1 build ending with HOD3, Stock Lollipop
No its not working here also... I don't think they have activated it hope the micro update will fix it
Which rom ru using??
Screen pinning is not made available on stock touchwiz rom...
Im using @frapeti 's CM12.1 rom with lollipop 5.1.1 sources
Screen pinning works der...
And no unpinning problems at all
Give a try to it....
You'll love it
Settings --> my device --> accessibility --> dexterity and interaction --> interaction control (enable). Then just go into an app you want to pin and hold vol - and home button at the same time and select "done". To unpin do the same thing. (NOTE: You need to disable multi-window for this to work)

Thanks for the tip. I was just wondering why the native Lollipop Pinning isn't working on stock lollipop.
Let's make a comprehensive list of all the cool little tricks, hidden menus, shortcuts, and tips that we've found.
Here's a starter list that I found to get us going
http://phandroid.com/galaxy-s7-tips/
List of tips & tricks
Optimize battery usage for individual apps
Settings - Battery - More - Optimize battery usage
All of my apps except for my stock Verizon ones and some system apps were already optimized
Disable scanning to improve battery
Settings - Location - Improve accuracy
Disable Bluetooth and WiFi scanning to keep your phone from scanning through these services even when you have the service turned off.
Change permission settings for individual apps
Settings - Privacy and emergency - App permissions
I went through and disabled some different apps that were requesting my location to help save battery. You also get a warning if the app you're changing is designed for an older version of Android and might cause issues.
Disable Quick connect in notification drop down
Access notification drop down by swiping down - tap the down arrow - Edit - turn off
Spelling correction for other keyboards
Samsung now has a built in spelling correction feature with their stock keyboard. But if you use another keyboard you lose that feature. If you download the Google keyboard it comes with spelling correction that works on any keyboard. I even disable it as an input method. The only bug is that enabling the Samsung keyboard will disable Google spelling correction, and you'll have to go toggle it on once you switch to another keyboard.
Download Google keyboard > Settings - Language and input - Spelling correction - Google keyboard
Lock screen shortcuts
Settings - Lock screen and security - Info and app shortcuts - App shortcuts
You can change the app shortcuts shown on the lock screen or choose to disable them altogether.
Pin Windows
Settings - Lock screen and security - Other security settings - Pin windows - On
Allows you to lock a current window on your device so you can let someone borrow your device for a moment. If you turn on "ask for pattern" it will prevent access to other apps without unlocking your phone.
Thanks 'insang-droid'
Turn off usage data access
Settings - Lock screen and security - Other security settings - Usage data access - More - Show system apps
Turning this off prevents apps from monitoring which other apps you use, how often you use them, your service provider, and other usage data. I don't see any reason my bloatware Amazon app needs access to which other apps I use.
Home screen options
Launch home screen settings by pinching your screen or by long pressing on an open area. From here you can change wallpapers, widgets, themes, and your screen grid (thanks 'insang-droid'). You can also add new blank pages, remove an existing page, and set your home screen. By going left, you can disable Flipboard Briefing if it was turned on.
Screen grid options are 4x4, 4x5, and 5x5
Fingerprint tips
You can add up to 4 fingerprint profiles in your S7. I recommend holding the phone as your normally do when you register your thumb. Rotate and move your thumb around, hold the phone with one hand and do it. Register your prints as multiple slots to make it more likely to accept your print. Also, tapping your finger instead of holding seems to unlock your phone faster.
Better screenshots
Settings - Advanced features - Smart capture
With smart capture on, you can immediately crop your screenshot, share it, or scroll down a page and take a long screenshot. This feature is really awesome if you are trying to save a long webpage or something that won't fit on one screen.
Settings - Advanced features - Palm swipe to capture
Instead of holding the Home and Power buttons simultaneously, you can swipe your hand across the screen to take a screenshot.
Remove Samsung Bookmarks in Chrome
Settings - Applications - Application manager - More - Show system apps - com.android.providers.partnerbookmarks - Disable
Gets rid of the Samsung Bookmarks in Chrome that show up as their own tab and also under Mobile Bookmarks.
For the Disable scanning to improve battery
You may want to update the path to get to it
You have to go settings > Applications > Google (scroll as it's the last one on the list) > Location > Improve Accuracy

Yep, that takes you there too
PIN window
Settings> search for PIN
Let's you pin the app to screen so back button and recent apps button don't affect the screen.
Home grid
Hold empty home screen and get in to grid settings
Hello!
When I go into settings -> display -> app frames to change it on "apps without frames" I can't click on that setting, it's like being locked, clicking on that setting does nothing, nothing changes. It's probably because I was messing with other Icon packs in "Samsung Themes". I deleted them all and set it to default. The problem is I can't still use/change settings where I can set apps with / without frames. Hope you understand what I want to say.
I would show you the picture, but I can't because Im new user. Thanks.

No problems here.
But try to go to:
Settings - Apps - Gear icon (top right corner) - Assist & voice input - Assist app (select google)
and after this disable and re-enable the two toggle (Use text from screen - and - Use screenshot) and see if it works again

Ok, last try:
Go again in:
Settings - Apps - Gear icon (top right corner) - Assist & voice input - Assist app (This time click None) and deselect all the two toggle.
Reboot the phone and re-enable all the things.
If will not work, it's a google app fault.
It was the issue because of DPI. In developer option i have changed smallest width to 520. I have changed back to 423 now its working.
This scenario was working fine with my Moto G4 plus, i dont know what's wrong with A1.
I dont like big fonts and icons so i usually increase smallest width to 520

If you want a smaller font you can change it in Settings - Display. You have the possibility to change the (Font size and Display Size)
Don't manipulate the developer settings thing, it's usually not recommended.
So I basically installed a camera app from the store on my ASUS X00PD and noticed it works better than stock camera app so I often use that, but if I open the camera from the lockscreen shortcut in the bottom right, it opens the stock camera app.
I looked for a way to change the default camera or even disable the stock one (without root) but I was unable to.
Here is what i tried:
Go to settings - Security and lock screen - look for "App shortcuts" but there is none
Go to settings - Apps - defaults - no camera option here
Go to settings - Apps - All Apps - find stock camera app - Clear defaults - it's greyed out
Go to settings - Apps - All Apps - find stock camera app - try to disable the camera, it's greyed out
Go to settings - Apps - All Apps - find my new camera app - no option to set as default
Go to settings - Advanced - there is some option for Instant camera, but it's just for quick camera using volume buttons, but no option on which one to open
Uninstall new camera and re-install it or even install another random camera and try see if lockscreen shortcut asks me for default camera but doesn't
Deny stock camera app for "camera" permissions, but the only change is that it asks me for it again
Have someone managed to achive this feat? Maybe it's just me, but I can't really think of anything else...
