Galaxy S6 :: Floating Toolbox Appears In Certain Apps
Aug 6, 2015
When I open certain apps, the s5 like toolbox icon appears, which can only be dragged. But when I press it, the icon doesn't response, basically it is useless. But I want to remove it, any solution?
This one will be hard to describe so I'll do my best: Somehow, I have 2 Toolbox Icons on my screen. One is movable and fully functional (works normally) and the other is stuck in the bottom right corner of my screen and is grayed out (but visible) and is not movable or functional.
I have done the following:
1) Reset phone; 2) Turned the Toolbox "on" and "off" in Settings (when doing this, the functional Toolbox Icon turns on and off as it should); 3) Battery pull. Still, no luck as the non-functioning Toolbox Icon simply will not go away...
So I noticed that some apps utilize a floating menu button (I think that's because the s6 doesn't have a dedicated menu button?) that appears like a circle with 3 dots on the screen wich you can move around.
However it appears to somehow be broken, as when I tap the button a menu appears for a fraction of a second and then disappears again, not giving enough time to do anything and of course rendering such an app useless.
I updated my firmware this morning and gave the phone to my son so he can play with it, and he dropped it...
It wasn't a big deal, it fell maybe 2 feet into a carpet. But the thing is, the background was still, there is no more parallax effect, even after reboot, and i've notice this right now at night.
Since Lollipop update to 5.0 on my S5 Galaxy, whatsapp floating popup keeps showing up when i am using the phone (not unlocked) , no matter if i put on whatsapp config to do not show popup it always appears, it´s kinda annoying since when it is up, u cant hide it, or u click it, or u wait..
Is there any way to get over this? i´ve tried look for some another ways, but no specific way for galaxy S5.
i have uninstalled viber after deactivating it from my iphone, but it still apears in apps store while updating other applications and shows some error messages, seems like ghost of viber still exists in my iphone , tried setup as new, restore everything but it comes back?where is the problem?
Especially when it always sits on the direction line of WAZE when I drive and when I try to drag it it often moves the street map and I find myself dealing with the phone screen instead of the driving....
I have tried installing various dialer apps, but when a phone call is made - the system phone dialer is at work and I cant get rid of this icon. Nothing in the actual system disables this buggy feature.
S6 Verizon Stock Lollipop. Even with only 1 app open, suddenly the app goes into half size and close all keeps appearing and disappearing.How can I get this to stop?
Ive been able for a couple years to upgrade and downgrade blackberry device software on various models, both GSM and CDMA. But for some reason I have started getting this error: Microsoft Visual +++ Runtime Library -R6002 Floating Point Not Loaded Then a "fatal error" occurs with the blackberry desktop manager when I am in middle of upgrading OS. This always happens at "uploading ram image" part, just after "connecting to boot Rom" part of update process.I have tried on two different PC's, and tried on multiple devices. I have tried completely wiping the device of its application, and I have tried without wiping OS off. I have tried with desktop manager 5.0.1 and with desktop manager 4.3. I have tried connected to internet, and I have tried without being connected.Nothing seems to prevent this error.Both my PC's are DELL running XP.I would love some help, anybody have any idea what is going on? I need to downgrade some 8330's, and I also just need to reload the OS's on some other phones.
I am been using Android for long time. The last Samsung mobile I used is S4 and I was using HTC M8 (Sense converted to GPe) before S6. I have my GPS is set to High because I used to use Maps for navigation a lot. But in S6, the notification panel keeps showing "Searching GPS location.." very often where I am not even using the Navigation. Is there something wrong.
I recently switched from the HTC one M8 to the Samsung S6 edge and have not looked back since. Samsung really does make terrific phones.One thing I was curious about, that I noticed recently, was that when I plug headphones into the phone, the little headphone icon appears in the top left corner and says that headphones are now connected and then the icon and message disappear. Coming from the HTC one M8 I am used to the headphone icon remaining there the whole time my headphones are plugged in and was wondering if this is normal for it to prompt me that the headphones are connected and then disappear?
Also, on a, possibly related, side note, having weird issues with the spotify app just crashing or pausing for no reason? I was thinking that it was either due to notifications I was getting, a bad headphone jack, or maybe the app is just bugging out.
My phone was working fine one minute, but the next thing I know it turns off, the led starts blinking blue and the screen refuses to turn on. If I hold the volume button and the power button, the phone vibrates and the led stops blinking indicating that the phone powered off. I can then power it back on and it vibrates and the led starts blinking again indicating it is powered on, but the screen remains completely black and does not show any boot up animations or respond to any touches. As you can probably guess, with an unresponsive display I can't boot into recovery mode or anything.
The video is extremely blurry and appears out of focus when I send it via a text after the automatic resize it does. Is there a setting to adjust this?
I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S5 (sm-g900f). Sometimes the screen just freeze, and grey lines appears (as in this picture goo.gl/qIdGg7 ).
The main button and the power still working, as I can see the white light turning on and off as usual after pressing them. And after click the power button once (which turn off the display), the screen remains black.
The phone is actually still working, as I can ear it ringing or receiving messages and email.
But I cant do anything, just take off the battery and restart it. I already reset it and the problem keeps happen again.
I have noticed that while my brother's Xperia mini with ICS (.587) has floating app icons when in "deleting"-mode, my Xperia mini with same firmware doesn't show them floating? What's up with that? Is there a bug in my firmware and does everybody else have these floating icons in "delete"-mode?

Info: iPhone 4, iOS 5.1.1, i phone 4 blue dot appears in the s
I was using my iPhone, and it was at 14%, which is okay, because it usually doesn't turn off until about 2%. So I go to plug it in, and I always charge it in my computer because I don't have a wall adapter for my USB. As soon as I do so, the screen goes completely black. I tried pressing buttons, calling it, plugging it into something else, and nothing has worked. When I called it, it kept ringing, so that's how I know it isn't dead.
I don't know if this has been posted. I'm using an application that I use at home screen. When I plug the phone into pc to charge the application disappears from home screen, I suppose the hard disk is disconnected, but when I unplug the phone it doesn't appears more. Sometimes I have to add it to home screen from the list but sometimes the application doesn't exist in the list. Any ideas? The application is SPB Weather but I don't know if it's a symbian issue or spbweather issue.
I have a question about something that's been annoying me quite some time now:When my phone is in sleep mode and I get a call the slider appears but is very hard to use. It's gotten so bad that I've missed calls because of it.Then when the call is gone it operates just fine without any hesitation.What's up with that? And are there any tricks to get around this?
Why is it when I receive an email, there's a symbol of new email on my email folder but no new email appears in the folder, to open and see new email I have to do it from the notification bar on the top of the phone and one's I read it, it's gone.
