I hate the navigation line or anything at the bottom of the screen. The way I got rid of it completely is I went to settings-->display -->navigation bar-->select swipe up gestures. Then go to more options (right underneath) then select swipe from bottom or swipe from sides (whatever your preference is) Then the lines are completely gone.

[@jimmyispromo]

In one ui 6.1, or atleast my device, that was taken away

[@radite2177]

​@@jimmyispromo after One UI 6.1 update you need to install Good Lock and get Navstar module to enable that option back into your phone setting. Was confused too why its gone because its still on 6.0

[@Leo4tomic]

​@@jimmyispromo On version "V6.1.05.45" of navstar they added this flag back: "Enable extra gesture settings Turning this option on will enable the swipe from bottom gesture and gesture hint settings in the navigation bar settings"

[@alliedoublev9114]

@@Leo4tomic That's right. I have NavStar in Good Lock turned OFF but the Enable extra gesture settings swiped ON. I'm glad that the option to remove the buttons is still there it's just annoying that you have go in a round about way to do it.

[@hard2bear3110]

​@@Leo4tomicyeah I'm stuck on the previous version of NavStar and being stubborn waiting for an update rather than installing the APK 😂 so I still have the taskbar on 😩

[@mattssacre]

I hate that bar at the bottom. You can just remove the navigation bar gesture hint instead of making it small and transparent. You have to enable the option to show it in Goodlock > NavStar > Enable extra gesture settings. Then it's 's under Display > Navigation Bar > swipe gestures > more options.

[@YssineVivo]

To completely hide the navigation bar, you can go back to display settings after what you've done on goodlock and you will find a new setting call gesture hint which you can disable and voilà, it's much gone.

[@jimmyispromo]

If only that was there for me. It was and is disappeared a while ago

[@YssineVivo]

@jimmyispromo i have the 2° april update Eux variant, and i still have it. That nav bar is annoying. I wish i could help you more.

Thank you Jimmy. It was a very useful, educational and informative tips simply by turning off these settings.

[@soundped]

Sometimes when you get a group message, this little half translucent bubble shows up over the bottom of the screen saying that text messages will be responded to in a group or something. It's the most pointless notification and it gets in the way of actually hitting the bubble when you want to reply. Is there anyway to make that disappear?

[@Annamalaibatsha]

Thank you so much. This is the most comprehensive video Iv'e seen for the s23 i bought. I came from iphone 13 an iphone user for 16 years and I wish I had done the switch to samsung earlier. So happy with these options ..especially developer options .I was one for 12 years...awesome !!! THANK YOU MAN..🤟🤟🤟

[@jimmyispromo]

You're welcome

[@teemo5409]

Yeah, that gesture setting was the default on my S24 Ultra, right out of the box. That's THE first thing that annoyed me and the FIRST setting I changed immediately. I'm used to having the three gesture " buttons" , or hints.

[@xiaoyu88]

Hi Jimmy thanks for the video, I find your videos very helpful. I wanted to know if you maybe have an idea, I got an S24 and I like it very much. The only problem is that when I touch to wake it, it takes about one second to turn on, unlike previous phones I had (other galaxys, pixels) that were waking up instantly. I have tried many settings to make it quite faster, but to no avail. Do you maybe have a solution for it?

[@Xavier-sm7qr]

Hi Jimmy. Love your videos. Can you tell me how to remove the little page navigation dots at the bottom of the screen. They get on my nerves, PLEASE HELP.

[@NOYBZ]

I don't really know if it's a region restricted thing or this navstar version of yours is older or whatever, but on my navstar installation i have the option "Enable extra gesture settings" right under "Allow back gesture...", which allows me to completely hide the navigation bar instead of making it small, all right from the native samsung navigation bar settings. This update came in between march and february to my S24U, not sure why yours don't have it

[@hamedl1865]

Thanks for the tips. Setting animations to 0.5 doesn't affect the battery?

[@mikeduplessis8796]

Not at all.

[@markvolpe2305]

One thing that annoys me is that I wish there was more customization to the alarm settings, for example, I have my alarm set for 6:40am M-F, now every once in awhile I'll have a day or 2 off from work and I won't need the alarm, but I wish there was a way to just bypass that day(s) without turning it off so you don't forget to turn it back on again and oversleep the next week.

I dont know if you can do anything in the setting you can change. But jimmy when im watching youtube and it wont go to full screen. You can do the zoom screen but i like to watch it on full screen. The phone is small enough so that is why i used to watch it on the full screen. If there is any settings you can change to get it back that would be awesome.

Do you know of any way to turn off the annoying screenshot saved notification?

[@iamnotafraid]

You should be able to modify any notification by long pressing on it and clicking settings. Another option is to open the app, go to recent apps, click the app icon at the top of the card, click app info and go to notifications. After using either of these methods, you can either completely disable the desired notification type, make it silent, disable pop-ups, disable it being shown on the notification screen (which is nice for always on display), or even more options as well.

[@Yeagerists1321]

Or you could just go to settings>display>navigation bar>turn off gesture hint.

@@jimmyispromo I never put it in a pants pocket, but if I'm not paying attention will put the screen facing my chest. Being fat, that means there is more of me sticking out where it shouldn't be.

The best way to avoid the annoying Samsung features is to not even get a Samsung Device. Don't get me wrong Sammy does put some good phones out , they are just not for me. I've been with the simplicity of a Google pixel for about 3 years. I love it. Especially the call screen. I haven't had an annoying call in 3 years.

[@Mick_Ts_Chick]

If only my boss wouldn't call, then all my annoying calls would be gone. 😂 I also got a Pixel and was happy with it until a couple of updates ago. Now the screen won't let me scroll half the time and the touch screen sensitivity is so bad. I really have to use almost brute force to get it to respond, esp when typing and I need to move the cursor. It just does nothing when I tap the screen. I'm missing my Samsung pretty bad now.

I'm not sure about the folder thing but the way I do it is to use Niagara launcher. Not only will it use less battery and be quicker than the default launcher, you will also receive notifications right on the home screen and reply to them without the need to pull down the notification shade. Niagara is an excellent launcher and I will recommend it all day long.
