I get this overlay on my screen when I unlock my phone. It dims the brightness a lot and stays like that for a few minutes or until the screen is turned off and on again.
Can someone help me with it?
Can you post screenshots?

I believe I am having the same problem. I will try and take screenshots and post them next time it happens.
Looks like it's something to do with your notification shade. I can't reproduce it on my end as it's just dim like in the 1st pic posted. Nothing I do allows it to not dim.

Can you try to replicate it in safe mode? if you can't seem to, it is likely caused by a third party app (wasn't pre-installed)

If you install good lock (Samsung's own customisation app) from the galaxy store, in the QuickStar you can change what Icons what you want to see.

Hi I was wondering if there was anyway to change the axon 7's screenshot method. It takes to long and if I take a screenshot of messages or a picture on Snapchat it takes me all the way back to the beginning of the messages or their story. Any help please?
Use the option in Gestures to do a three finger pinch, its so much faster and easier!

Yes but it still takes me to another window and I have to press the check mark in order to save it. It's quite annoying and no other Android phone I've ever used has done this. :/

Saw your post title. Was also hoping for a solution to this issue. Just set up my phone yesterday and found this issue. It would be nice if they had a setting option, so you could turn this edit feature off if you didn't want this extra step.
Hi there
I've an jiayu S3 Advanced for some time And no matter what ROM i use I've got a problem with screen goes black - it's like LCD doesn't got signal or something like that. I've noticed that touch works and phone is unlocked and works.
It's very annoying...
Anyone of you got similar problem and have a advice how to resolve ? I'm afraid that it might hardware related...But maybe it isn't ? Maybe It driver fault of something like that ?
If anyone of you have any advice please let me know.
Regards.
I have the problem the most time when doing something and call is incoming
Gesendet von meinem s3 mit Tapatalk
Also have the issue, don't think I had the issue in RC5 but I do have it a lot in MM roms
Happens a LOT when there's data or calls, but not exclusive to those situations.
Also S3A

do you use any tempered glass or something similar that perhaps it covers the sensor?!

Ok in my case this is clearly mobile network related.
Had the phone on airplane mode (wifi and BT on though) and it never went dark, turned off airplane mode and it happened instantly.
Edit: And it happens a lot with a Kompson battery. Not with the green battery.

Yep, but I switched SIM cards from their slots and it's not happening anymore!
Weird!!!!
Guys, I have this problem mee too. It is very fristrating... I suppose it is a bad behaviour of Proximity sensor. I'm thinking to disable one sensor each test and see if probelm remains... someone know how I can do?
I tried also to recalibrate proximity sensor without result.
Now I try to switch sim cards as suggested from nature boy..

I don't have any tempered glass. Previously I had the Lollipop Xtreme and as far as I remember I didn't have this issue.
All new Features:
~App shortcuts.
~Rounded icons.
~Duo app.
~Little Change in the interface of camera app.
~The update brings back the tap the Fingerprint to pop out Navigation bar and status bar feature while in full screen mode.
~New restart option.
~The Android update installation now shows a progress bar and the “optimizing apps” screen is now gone.
Battery
~Not much difference in battery.
Feels pretty much the same.

Yes, dynamic app-shortcuts are beautiful. Take a look at this screenshot from android 7.1.1 with pixel launcher and you can see. Best update ever. Thanks motorola. Feels good!
Would someone be so kind and run one of the GPSTest or GPS Test apps to see if they added Galileo support?
Thanks!
I have found one more new feature. Now there is a reboot button on the power-button menu. That's pretty kewl. Don't have found bugs until now. Works very good. If I found a bug I will tell you.

Not only brightness, but gamma as well. But that's pixel exclusive. Google had the code hidden on 7.0, which few apps from play store been able to expose as well. Those apps used to work on my previous Nexus phones, but never worked on MZP. Now we have 7.1 and unfortunately Google has erased the code completely... Now we can't reveal it through any 3rd party apps anymore...but few OEMs have their own solution like One Plus, Moto Z2 Play
Is the android 7.1.1 really so much bigger? On android 7.0 I had 1.5GB free on system-partition. 800MB bigger? Why? Or is the update.zip in there and must be removed? Would like to understand that. Thanks!

But is it normal that the system partition is so much bigger? I mean, there is more in the partition as before. 800MB more. For what? Or I'm wrong and I remember wrong values from before? :silly: Or is it for the update.zip? But would it be so, then android would remove it after update, or? Can you check how it is on your phone, please Hope that I'm not switch off the usb plug to early

I have the same as your results.
I have switched to Nova launcher and changed everything I can to dark theme without resorting to Substratum.
The ONE thing that still annoys me is the incredibly bright Phone APP and Dialer screens. Especially when a call comes in/answered it's full screen light blue!
Anyone have a fully working solution?? Root or non-root, OTHER than Substratum?

I used non root substratum and changed everything to dark. I don't see any other way.

The LCD screen lights stay on regardless of theme color. AMOLED has individual pixels which a dark theme has potential to save battery.
I'm not looking to save battery, just eliminate the glare from hideous screens (Call/Dialer/etc.)
Is anyone else having an issue where contacts are showing duplicates just because they are on WhatsApp, viber, allo, etc? I can't seem to find a way to stop it. I've hidden duplicates on the contact app but not been able to on the phone app

I'm not sure if that's specific to Essential... But I've fixed it by making sure a sync just happened... And then wiping data on Contact Storage... And Contacts... Then forcing another sync...
It takes some time for everything to come back... But it fixed it for me...
It still shows wonky in a couple of other apps... But I don't care enough to mess with it

Also, you can only use the fingerprint scanner if you activate number or pattern security...why not just for other purposes, like answering the phone?
