Good Lock Still trying to take Control of Note 7. In particular my Lock Screen and Quick Setting pull down menu. Anyone know of a way to resolve this problem?

What is Good Lock? Is this specific to a certain Note 7? I have the AT&T version and haven't heard of that.

It is used to stop the Safety Recall Notification popup. See link.

Good lock may have updated there protocols and allowed for the saftey warning while charging to appear. It is a Samsung app. If you have your shield up and blocking the packages to disable ota updates, you should be good to go.

Right, but that's not quite the issue in this case. All the Safety Notifications have been stopped by Good Lock. It is just the app trying to control the Lock Screen and the Quick Setting pull down menu that I was hoping someone knew how to turn off. I have been able to turn off the other annoying things about the application.

I believe there was no way to change that except to uninstall. @Catwoman can you advise

I think @catwoman made a video over the last weekend going through a ton of customizability options. It's on the YouTube channel. Possibly also in the good lock thread, although I'm not sure if that was updated to display that yet but its definitely on YouTube.
