Hi y'all. After updating to 8.5 and the newest security update, I haven't been able to swipe down to access the notification panel/quick panel on various apps. I've tried resetting the quick panel, restarting the device, clearing the cache on multiple apps, etc. No luck. Have y'all come across anything like this before? Thanks in advance.

First suggestion -> SETTINGS -> Search for 'HOME SCREEN' -> Open the first result which will/should be for HOME SCREEN SETTINGS. -> Scroll down to "SWIPE DOWN FOR NOTIFICATION PANEL" -> enable this option if it isn't currently turned on.
Second thought is in relation to in-app swipe behavior, restricting the notification shade to specific zones. If you have swipe features enabled or even the Notification Smart Pop-up features selected, these may be causing the issue.
For both of these, check the following:
SETTINGS -> ADVANCED FEATURES -> MULTI WINDOW -> check to see if or what you have enabled or chosen as the settings for "Swipe for split screen" & "Swipe for pop-up view". Ensure the Swipe Gestures sensitivity isn't blocking edge access. Alternatively, to open the full notification shade within apps, try dragging your finger down from the very top-most edge of the screen rather than the middle.
For Notifications Pop-up styles & Smart pop-up:
SETTINGS -> NOTIFICATIONS -> ADVANCED SETTINGS -> FLOATING NOTIFICATIONS -> check to see what you have set here. If "Smart pop-up view" is chosen but "Included Apps" shows "None", you may have a conflicting display issue there.
Last option is to handle it through the Good Lock app.

I am currently having this same issue and trying the suggestion of using the S-Pen worked as well. Cannot use my finger to pull down the shade. However while fiddling about this was, I accidentally tapped the notification bar with my S-Pen and it dropped the shade. I tried a few more times with my finger and got the same response. Anyone else care to try and see if just tapping the notification bar works for them as well.
It's not as convenient as pulling down, but want to see if this works for anyone else.
