Two questions.

Right now using Samsung gestures, if I swipe up and hold it gives me Google now, same as holding the home button. Anyway to disable this?

Second, anyway to customize the app shortcuts on the lockscreen to a flashlight toggle? It seems to only give me the option to have app shortcuts but not toggle switches.

Thanks.

Hoping someone here can help me out. I am unable to get Google Assistant or Bixby to answer or respond in the car when I press the voice button like it use to with my iPhone or Note 9. It just doesn't do anything.

One stereo says not supported, the other does nothing. Any ideas if I need to fix a setting to get this to work?

I seem to be seeing Flamingo's everywhere at the moment!

@GrumpyMom - a nice wallpaper if you keep your S10+!

Best feature of good lock is the grid layout for multitasking.

I must say the one thing I wish they would add is the ability to customize gestures. I much prefer my 6t knock off apple setup to this.

Forget about the built in bottom gesture. Try One Hand Operation+ from Samsung. This app you can set the gestures to activate from the sides. Great for when using phone one handed. You can have up to 6 gestures per side.

You, my friend, have just changed the game with that little tip!!

Thanks so much for posting. :D

Go to lockscreen in settings then app shortcuts, from there you can set flashlight.

Yup, I have it set to that too. I also set my status bar clock to the right(where it's suppose to be).

I didn't even knew that existed. Gonna give it a try.

Using that now. Not a fan of the look, prefer the stock lockscreen, but it'll get the job done, thanks.

I disabled the Good Lock lockscreen cause the status bar icons didn't play well with the front camera. I'm not that picky about things, but that bothered me.

Having major issues with my S10+. Android Auto doesn't work, I've updated my Audi to the latest MMI firmware at the dealership. Pixel works just fine.

Bluetooth in my car, it connects and I've enabled all settings in the phone. No audio comes through, music or Google Assistant.

Google Play Music- when I transfer my music onto the SD card and try to play an album, it rapidly scrolls through the entire album and won't play anything. For every album. I've formatted the SD card and reinstalled Google Music. No luck.

Trying to back up to Google Drive so I can do a factory reset, but it won't back up and everything is stuck on "waiting to back up". I've been plugged in and on wifi. I refuse to use Verizon cloud or run an adb command to do a simple back up.

Anyone else having these issues? So frustrating.

Who ordered directly from Samsung? Please reply.

I did. My phone doesn’t play too well with T-Mobile like the carrier variant does. Even the T-Mobile employee had problems on his S9+ with Pie. Good to know that my phone isn’t the only one with the quirks.
