I have completely forgotten where to find the setting to hide various apps on the app menu. Can someone refresh my memory, cheers

Marshmallow issue

Is anyone else experiencing freezing issue in recent apps screen? It happens frequently while the recent apps screen is empty and I minimize an app by pressing the recent apps button.

Same here. Randomly the recent apps screen is freezing. Don't know why.

Try reducing the window transition and animation transition to 0.5x or keep them off by going to developer option.
See if that helps.

Already tried reducing to 0.5x but no help. When the recent apps screen is not empty then there is no freezing while minimizing.

same error here, OTA of Marshmallow, the bar of google search not appears on the top of recent apps screen, one question, this OTA is a soak test?
I also have soak test official ota.
the problem with the google bar in multitasking has been resolved! with this:
''In Settings -> Apps -> Gear icon (top right) -> Default Apps -> Assistance (first one) -> Assistance application (click on gear icon) -> Select Google (in my case None was selected) -> restart phone
so you can remove or put the bar with this

Thanks but I don't get that Assistance option. In my case there is only Assist and Voice Input.

Stay Awake option disabled from developer options?

The Stay Awake toggle on my developer options menu is disabled.
Anyone know why this may be?
It is by default for everyone. If enabled your display will not sleep (will not turn off automatically) while charging.

Nvm case closed.

what the heck is screen overlay detected on axiom 7

It about stops me from doing uploading pictures, downloading. It's driving me crazy anyone else having this problem?
Yea lots of people are. Anything that changes the status of the screen like some kind of screen filter like twilight, night owl, any of those things, can mess with this. It's been pretty annoying. I have Twilight set to a timer to eliminate blue light on the screen before sleeping and I have to freeze and defrost it several times a day. Apparently it's an issue with ZTE. There is a thread over there about it.

I guess that it should actually be a security feature to prevent an overlay app from abusing any open apps below it... but it is really annoying that the ZTE integrated feature Mi-POP will also make this warnings display... you can simply deactivate it through its notification bar shortcut but it's still annoying...

I'm going to guess you have MiPop enabled? is so turn it off and your screen overlay issue might go away.

Screen overlay is new in 6.0 to prevent apps from creating an overlay and giving permissions to themselves. It's not an issue with ZTE.
Yes screen overlay is new. Came from a N6 and never had this problem on stock 6.0 from Google. Facebook messenger will not do anything other than message can't call, or send pictures. Yes it is a problem with ZTE

Go to the "Apps" setting, and then click on the "gear-shaped" setting button to go to the "Draw over other apps" menu and turn off all apps that are enabled. Go back to the "Apps" setting and click on the app that needs permissions modified. When all the permissions are updated, go back and enable the "Draw over other apps" for those apps you disabled.
Use this app it will get rid of that annoying overlay issue.

Have you install Magisk Module like GMS Doze or enable "Suspend execution for cached apps" in the developer options ?
And like ayed78 said, in app info > Battery > select "Unrestricted"

I have standart for "Suspend execution for cached apps" and i have installed "universal GMS Doze 1.8.8" but i never had a problem while using it.
I have set whatsapp to unrestricted but that did not help.
I think "disable sleep optimization in battery setting" helped but i am not sure.
should i deactivate "Suspend execution for cached apps" ?

If i asking for doze it's because i had the same issue on Signal because or this module
Try in a first time to just pass App Battery profile on Unrestricted, if problem occur, try to disable your GMS Doze module.
And for Suspend execution cached apps it'sbetter to keep the default settings.
