Just found this and thought I'd share. When in the app drawer, if you click and hold an app you get an uninstall option at the top right of the screen. Pretty handy. What I just noticed is that to the right of the uninstall option is a little i in a circle. Dropping the app here opens the app info window. Same window that you would normally have to go to settings -> mange apps -> find the app and tap it. Using the app drawer you can force close in 2 quick steps.

Thanks for the tip! Although that is force stopping not force closing. Force close is a dirty word
Good point. Changed the title.
I have disabled the stock messaging app on my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge as I have been using Textra instead.
However I now want to enable messages again but have found that its not showing in the disabled apps in the application manager.
I have followed these steps but as I said, there are no disabled apps showing. I'm running Android 7.0 and not rooted. Anyone have any ideas how to fix this please??
Launch the Settings Application.
Scroll Down and Tap on the 'Applications' Option.
Then Tap on the 'Application Manager' Option.
Tap the 'All Apps' Drop Down Menu.
Tap on the 'Disabled' Option.
Locate and Tap on the Application You Want to Enable.
Then Tap on the 'Enable' Button.
Did you disable it in the app manager, or using a third party tool like Package Disabler?

what about System Apps section?
did you try to go on developer mode and tap on "disabled apps" at the bottom of the menu?
If you try there maybe you will find all the stuffs you're looking for
Thanks for your replies but gave up and did a factory reset! I will bare those options in mind the next time I have a similar problem Thanks again
When he tries to enable the debugging mode he gets a "because an app is obscuring a permission request settings can't verify your response" what to do?
For me it was LMT Launcher that was blocking... Just exit the app and it worked.. maybe some other app you have... Try force closing some app with permission to draw over other apps...and try again...

1. Apps such as Blue light filter apps constantly appear on the top of your screen thus breaking some of the on screen functionalities. Try disabling display over other apps permission of such apps and you should be fine.
2. If you have custom ROM installed such as Resurrection Remix(which was my case) who provides Smart Pixels feature under Settings ->Configurations -> Interface -> Smart Pixels , try disabling that too and you will be able to toggle device admins as well as accessiblity of apps.
3. Also, sometimes it is because of your custom launcher, so try switching to your stock launcher if above solutions don't work.
4. If Accessibility for some apps are on then try disabling them first then try to enable for the apps you wanted to.
P.S. : Of all the above 4 possible solutions, try the ones which are more suitable to your condition. For eg. you can't try solution number 2 if your ROM doesn't have Smart Pixels[\B].
Hope it works.
I have a Samsung S10+ but this is more of a general Android question. I was wondering if there was a way that you could have infinite choice on what app you wanted to be the "default navigation app".
So basically you could trick the operating system into seeing a non Navigation App as a possible option for the Default Navigation App?
Dont know if this works. This for waze but i expect it is same for any app.
Android version 6.0+
Open Android device Settings.
Enter the Apps menu (sometimes called Application Manager).
Swipe over to the All apps list.
Scroll down and tap on Waze.
Tap Open by default.
Tap Clear defaults if any exist, then tap Open supported links and choose the relevant option: Open in this app. Ask every time.

That does not work in this situation. As certain apps dont have the ability to open location and/or direction links
