I just installed an application to monitor my phones and its works flawless, but leave the application icon on the notification bar and disable (don’t matter what application icon) the "tap to Clear notifications". The intent is to run the app stealth! There is any way to go around this or an app that can either turn-on the “tap to Clear notifications” or allow me to manage what icons will be displayed
Thanks for any help
In the hidden menu lg launcher there is something called "Touch Gap Calibration"
Can someone explain what this is?
And before the TROLLS come in and say "GOOGLE IT" or Search for it..... I already did and found absolutely nothing.
My knock on is not working so want to know if this will help.
Where is this menu?

There are 2 ways to access i.
1. Rooted with G2 Tweakbox - Enable Hidden Menu (Then it will appear in Home Screen Settings)
2. Non Rooted. Downloading Launcher Pro (No need to set as default launcher... just doenload it) Then you can access the activities widget. Then set it to [HOME>com.lge.launcher2.hiddenmenu.LGHomeHiddenMenuActivity]
This will place a small Home icon on your home screen that gives you the hidden menu.
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?

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

Just swipe away the apps you want to close manually and leave the desired one there, close all will close all, there's no way to change that.

You can lock the apps and prevent them from closing. In the recent apps, there is a 3 dot menu in the top right corner. Tap it and you will see the option for locking apps.

Ha what do you know, didn't know it had that feature, nice one!
I have this same problem. Trying to find a way to lock my Tile App. Turned off my battery saver so system wont close open apps. Tried everything i could think of and that is suggested
on line. Nothing works. Tile cant even help.
How do I do what you suggest?
How do I access the recent apps? Is it through the 3 line button at bottom of sceen where it shows small pages of everything open or somewhere else?
When I look there....the individual pages don't show the 3 dots.
Thank you for any help you can offer!

Hi,
What you mean "tap on tile app"? I can not find "allow background activity". Phone is galaxy s8, android pie.
Few days back a call recorder apk sent me there and I realize this option is not deleted from android. It just hidden, like stop FB updates.

See the gif I attached
Ok problem resolved.
There is three options to be set:
1) "Sleeping aps" - go to Settings and type in search bar on top "Sleeping aps"
I Add all apk except: AutoBlutooth, Button mapper, Call recorder, Weather widget, Email and messaging apk
2) "Optimize battery usage" - go to Settings and type in search bar on top "Optimize battery usage" Click again on top row "Optimize battery usage", Click on "App not optimized" and change to "All", find apk that make problem by sleeping.
I Disable :AutoBlutooth, Button mapper, Call recorder, ect. I do not add here email and messaging apk, as they never have sleeping issues. Maybe because not have 3day(default sleep setting) not using them in a row.
3) "Allow background activity" - go to Settings==>>Apps==>>Select application you want not to sleep==>>Battery==>>Allow background activity
It will be set to Enable to all apk, that are not added to "Sleeping aps"
Additional step:
"Device admin apps" - If Application is already here, can give Admin status. It will prevent accidental change of "Optimize battery usage" and "Allow background activity"
p.s
This why my messaging apps have Enabled Allow background activity and Optimise battery usage.
Button mapper, Call recorder ect have Enabled Allow background activity and Disabled Optimise battery usage
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
