Fingerprint to open apps - Sprint HTC 10 Questions & Answers

I seen a setting to assign apps to use pin or fingerprint to open, but I can't find it now. Can someone tell me what setting that's under?

It's in the boost+ app under 'lock apps'. But if you're on a custom ROM, some may have determined it bloatware and removed it.

Q- Restoring a hidden app.

I hid an app I thought I was not going to use but now need it here is the problem.
Want to use Samsung Knox to sandbox suspicious apps.
It does NOT show up in hidden apps, or list in my app drawer.
It does show up in the ALL tab in the app manager. It is not force closed and force close is grayed out (disabled). It is not using any resources.
I did soft reset. And a hard reset did not restore settings. App did not come back. To the app. Drawer.
Not rooted running stock. 4.3 with the update MJ7

KitKat disable apps getting location

Is it possible to disable apps getting access to location individually?
If I turn on location Facebook seems eager to always wanting to know my location. And it also says high battery usage.

If you go to settings > location access. you can turn it off though this turns if off for all apps.

Where is running services?

Where is this setting so I can see what apps are always running. This use to be in apps settings on my other phones but can't find it on my nexus.

You need to enable developer settings and it's near the top of there!

Recent apps view force closes upon entering. Any fix?

Every time I enter my recent apps menu it force closes. Every. Single. Time. I have no what could be causing this, and the only way to make it NOT do that is to quickly slide the app windows down a bit upon opening the recent apps menu, but that works inconsistently.
Help?
EDIT: SOLVED! Disable the preinstalled Google app if you're having this issue. Thank me later.

Huawei home launcher error

This morning after 5 Playstore updates error Huawei home : icons needs to be set back to standard... Respring off launcher error again, same problem ... This loops.. managed to get in settings , clear the data off Huawei home... Same problem, clean cache, same problem... Managed to get in to play store installed now launcher... Problem solved for now... I had Facebook Facebook pages beta updates, Google now app beta update en WhatsApp beta update... No Huawei updates what so ever... Anyone an idea or the same problem?
I have the normal working original no root or bl unlocked EU mate 9 on b136.
You might have luck opening "Settings" --> "Apps" and taking a look at that list of apps (maybe you'll need to activate "Show System Processes" (or similar, I'm using my Mate 9 with german localisation), but I'd try with the non-system apps first, as that list is shorter).
I had the same problem you are describing and the reason was the app "Ford Service", which had a completely empty name in the settings list of installed apps. After I uninstalled that app the launcher stopped from constantly reloading.
Maybe you have an app with an empty or "problematic" name as well, which forces the EMUI launcher to crash.
Oke oke ...Will check it... But what is Ford service ?? How did u find out this was the problem

He meant it as an example. You might have a buggy app wrecking havoc.

Coincidence or not I can tell you that the latest Facebook version was absolutely hammering my battery. It consumed 14% in just 1 hour while sitting idle. I was forced to uninstall it and I'm now using the desktop version via Hermit.
Funny enough now Facebook Messenger is going wild and I keep getting power-intensive notifications. I have to wonder what the heck is going on in the background...

"Ford Service" is an app for Ford drivers (containing information about local and general service phone numbers etc.). I suspected that you have another app installed, which might have the same problem.
Are you using the EMUI launcher with or without the activated app drawer? In my case (with the "Ford Service" app installed) the launcher only crashed when the app drawer was activated. Deactivating the app drawer stopped the launcher from crashing.
EDIT: Added a screenshot, which shows the app with the "empty name". As long as I had that app installed, the EMUI launcher kept crashing the way you described, as long as the app drawer was activated.
I using the app drawer... But no Ford service.
Indeed... All fb apps are going wild today...
I uninstall now all fb apps... See what's happening
Deleted fb FB messenger and pages manager ... All oke now... Default Huawei launcher working like normal

Same on My girl Phone, uninstalled fb messenger (with no Name listed under options->app) And now seems all ok....
Thx for the hint!
Guys, im having trouble with my app drawer too, no icons appear! I searched the Huawei Home apk but i didnt find the 6.3.47 which is the version the Mate 9 has. I will try uninstalling Facebook and Messenger and see what happens.
EDIT: The issue is still there. I really dont know whats the deal with this.
