Full screen mode stopped working - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Any idea why the full screen mode suddenly stopped working? Is there some hidden setting for that what Bixby changed etc. etc. when using a ton of voice commands :victory:
I have enabled full screen mode in "settings->display->full screen" and all of my programs are allowed to use full screen, but none of them do. And if I disable eg. Chrome and then launch Chrome it asks whether I want to run it in full screen or not. I press "run in full screen" but the navigation bar still persist

Youtube navigation bar BLOCKS VIDEO!

Hi everyone,
After I updated to JB, something within the Youtube app started bothering me!
1. I open a video.
2. I turn it sideways [to toggle HD].
3. I turn it back to portrait mode.
4. The top navigation banner blocks 1/10 of the video.
SEE SCREENSHOTS!

The app version is 4.3.9.
Things I've tried:
- Turn it sideways, without toggling HD, return to portrait (problem still persists)
- Force close, uninstall updates, relaunch the app (problem still persists)
- Reinstall the updates, relaunch (problem still persists)
- Reset the phone (problem still persists)
Does this happen to you guys' phones too?
Does anyone know a fix to it?

I think I know what you mean. The bar repeatedly hides/pops up by itself in the landscape mode right? I experience this too but it doesn't bother me that much as I tend it watch video in portrait.

Happens to me too. But after a while the top bar disappears automatically. I don't think there is a a anything you can do about it.

[Q] Lockscreen questions (dashclock)

I'm using an AT&T Note 3 with DashClock installed for my lock screen.
When coming back to my phone my lockscreen shows something like this.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
In order to get more information I have to manually drag the widget to make it bigger every time. After I drag it down or scroll to a new screen and back it shows up like this:
From this screen I'm able to just tap the notification and load the corresponding app. I am used to this functionality from my previous iphones. Is there any way to automatically load the widget as it appears in the 2nd pic above?
Thanks.
It looks like this is a feature in Android.
"People...Built by design, stock 4.2.X has the 'main' lock screen widget shrunk so that you have full access to the lockscreen slider right away after unlocking. You'll need a non-stock/custom ROM (AOKP/CM) that has such option built into it, allowing for main lockscreen to be expanded as soon as the phone is unlocked. This isn't an 'app' issue/fix but stock ROM related. "

Xposed has a maximize widget module for this. That is if you are rooted.

If you go to settings and then applications, and then check notification settings in each app you want to get notifications from on lock screen and make sure you have selected the "show content"option in notification settings of each app.

Then check settings, lock screen, notifications, show or hide content.

it's on. I got sms notification on locked screen when screen is off. It appears that Viber, WhatsApp and Gmail application, are having problem to show me a notification when the screen is off and locked... done some searching in applications settings everything seems to be in order... I give up... maybe I should update, because I'm on stock ROM.. I usually don't do updates because I'm afraid of battery leaking and other problems that Samsung is providing us in the last couple of years...

I think I've read that some apps don't support screen edge.

Didn't know to which app you referred.

Weather on Lock Screen & AOD

This seems like it should be VERY simple, but I can't figure it out... I just want to have weather displayed on my lock screen and always on display.
I went into Settings - Lock Screen - FaceWidgets - selected Weather, and the "show on Always on Display" option -- no luck.
Suggestions? I must be missing something...

Would also like to know... haven't been able to find out how.
Their implementation blows. On AOD, you have to double tap the time then scroll. On Lock screen, you have to scroll the time. Makes it pretty worthless.

I was trying to figure this out. Thanks.
You can change the order.
It's kind of in a strange settings under lockscreen-face widgets.
At least then you don't have to swipe 5 times

Kindle Fire HD 7 2012 version Launcher Debug on startup

Hi
I know mykindle is old but my autistic son uses it and he cannot handle change thus still using it.
I have no idea how this has happened at all. BUt now it seems when I reboot the device, the notifications bit has a notice saying "tap to access launcher debug settings".
When I tap this it takes me to those settings (which I have never seen before in any of the settings area) and I can quit out of it.
Why is this happening and is it a sign of a bigger problem?
Just to be clear, while I do have ADB enabled (in case I brick it and need to use kindle-unbrick in the future) nothing else is unusual. It is not rooted and I have never put a custom rom/system/launcher on it at all.
I can only guess that this change has accurred because either a game I have installed has tweaked something, or, a particular tablet-crash has pushed this into being.
So is it a problem? Can I stop it? Why has it happened?
Any thoughts would be massively appreciated please.
Thank you.
Alex
Hello. Sorry for the late reply. Anyways, I'm happy to help you. I also use a Kindle Fire HD 7 2012, so you can expect the best results. IDK the reason of the problem, it appeared in the same way as yours. But the fix is so simple, take a closer look at it:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Long-tap at the notification (some program appeared at the top, don't pay attention to it):
Tap "Manage Notification", as the arrow above suggests.
So, you must have the same screen, applications may differ. Tap the "Off" toggle in the right corner after the "Launcher", as arrow suggests, and go to the home screen. When you will look at notifications, a message must disappear.
If you experience any further problems, let me know. I'll try to respond in my free time.
And thank you for posting the question, without it I couldn't solve it (really).
Have a nice day!
HTH,
Anonymous
