For some reasons, the upper part of my touch screen does not work any more although the screen display is perfectly fine. Hence, I cannot swipe down to see notifications, etc... It's kinda annoying.
Are there any fixes for this problem, preferably software fixes. Thank you so much.
I used a touchscreen test app to demonstrate the touch screen issue.

you can change the launcher and grab one that lets you swipe on the screen to bring the notif bar down... Think it MIGHT be apex launcher....

Let me know which launcher you found dude.
Nova can do it.I think Apex also.
Many launchers allow this, but if you don't want to change your launcher, I saw somewhere a "gesture control app" which allows to bind swipe down to some action. Or you can place an icon on the desktop to launch an app which expands the status bar.

is that a serious question?
I use it to change brightness and enable/disable bluetooth when getting into my car.
oops double post.
You do know all of that is available in the drop down tray. Including brightness. Just slide your finger across the tray left and right

not if it's on auto
plus, why not use it.
Maybe the OP doesn't feel like sliding down the notification bar.
To turn on BT I can
1) Hit the button on the power widget on my home screen
or
2) slide down notificiation, hit the BT icon, which opens up the BT settings, click enable BT... then hit back to return to my homescreen.
^ apologies, it just doesn't seem "simple clean" to me.....
"simple clean" is referring to the wallpaper... not the widgets/apps setup
eww, toooo many "samsung" on this phone already. =P
I kind of like it.
+1 to frankencat.
I love the samsung aspect to this phone.

I know I'm nitpicking here but after I installed the GMD softkey remover it drops the home screen down just a bit and leaves a space up at the top. If it turn on the soft key spoof mode it just moves everything up and leaves a space at the bottom. Here are some pictures to show what I'm talking about. Red bars show area I'm talking about.

Is there a way to add some padding space above the dock buttons but below the homescreen grid? I've tried different launchers but I cant use the stock weather widget for some reason.

But then I lose my softkeys all together. I still need them to pop-up so I can navigate. Actually, how would you navigate without the softkeys completely?

Awesome, I'll give that a try.
In my case, I take em out (soft keys) and navigate and do much more with GMD Gesture Control.

Hi.
Seems that an annoying gestures bug still affect the latest S10 public update (BSL4).

"lightbox_next": "Next",

}
Can someone reproduce it?
Another one, this time with and without gestures suggestion bottom line (back to home interferes with scrolling):
WITH SUGGESTION OPTION
WITHOUT SUGGESTION OPTION
I think the most annoying bug is the gesture on the home screen. Unlike the gestures within an app or on homescreens of iPhones or pixel phones, the phone doesn't react directly with fading out the home screen. You have to perform the gesture, and then the cards pop in. Since Samsung is forced to implement Google's gestures, and it behaves different here, I consider this as a bug. Although it is still present in new phones like a51.

We will see what happen with next monthly updates, otherwise I assume that a bug report will be necessary.
Yes, and in general the animations are just laggy especially if you have auto rotate on for the home screen and swiping up to close, always lag. Inconsistent with portrait ones too.

It depends due to your launcher. Some have the option to remove it some haven't. For what I'm seeing you are using the Google launcher (flashed full or near to full gapps?) If so you have to change launcher because AFAIK Google launcher haven't the option to remove bottom bar.

I use lawnchair (it as the bottom search bar but "I THINK" that you can remove it) in any case is free so why not try and see if in the launcher option there is the possibility to remove it yourself. Other than that there are a lot of launcher so just try a bunch and see what is right for you.
That's IT ??
Thank you @ParanoidNemo
Sometimes the homescreen fails to load. It just shows the wallpaper and status bar. Normally there are widgets and apps. Any idea why? I'm using Nova Launcher but on other phones it worked fine.

it's a weird bug with the pixel 6/Android 12 and third party launchers, I experience the same thing with Niagara launcher and have yet to find any solution to it
YES!! I thought I was the only one experiencing this. Also using Nova and 12L on Pixel 6.
Make sure that you are using Nova launcher version 7.0.57

Looking at your home screen and the notifications. It looks like you have a lot running tasks in the background.
Find out which app or mod is interfering with Nova.
I am using Nova with root and the basics, without issues.
I have the same issue in a ZTE Axon 40
Everytime I swipe up to go home, if I make a quick press after the swipe, the home screen goes blank nd I have to swipe up again to recover the icons and widgets
