Moto x Pure Marshmallow Settings missing

I just received my new moto x pure and I quickly updated to the exciting new marshmallow update. My previous phone was the OnePlus one, so maybe I'm spoiled, but there seems to be a distinct lack of settings on this phone.
For instance:
Can't change haptic feedback (vibration intensity) for things
Can't change quick settings tiles
Can't make the quick settings menu drop down from the sides of the screen
Can't change what the home back and menu button does on long press or double press
I read the help that comes with the phone on the notifications settings issue, however what they say to do doesn't work
Maybe I'm spoiled coming from the OnePlus one, but these key features are a little silly to be left out.

Those aren't stock settings sorry.

The OPO used CM as it's OS, right? Those are mostly CM features and not stock features.

Oh I see. But the help app says that I can change my quick settings tiles but they way it says to do it doesn't actually work. What about that?

Swipe down notifications, hold the settings cog until it starts spinning, it will unlock system ui tuner in settings.

How to enable System UI Tuner ?

Hello,
As you may know, Android 6 has a hidden feature, called System UI Tuner. This can be enabled by long-pressing the Settings icon in the top-right corner of the notifications bar. Once enabled, a new section appears in Settings, called "System UI Tuner". I think Developer mode must be enabled too for this to work, and animations must be on.
But on the S7 Edge, this doesn't seem to work. Tried to long-press that icon, and nothing. Animations are on, developer mode is enabled.
Did anyone succeed in enabling this ?
Thanks !

Not sure why you want that, since touchwiz ui already supports everything from there.. Imo

Really ? How can I remove icons from the status bar, like the Bluetooth icon even when it is enabled, for example, and have more room for notification icons ?

System UI Tuner isn't available on Touchwiz. Samsung removed it. However, I'm guessing most of you upgraded to Android Nougat, but for those of you who haven't should get this app called Good Lock.
Good Lock is an app made by Samsung that actually replaces the System UI on your phone, and will make it almost stock Android. I sure you still won't find System UI Tuner by holding the Settings button, but I sure that there is a setting in the Good Lock Settings menu to do so. My thought is that the Good Lock Settings Menu is their version of System UI Tuner.
You can find Good Lock in the Galaxy Store, but if it is not there for whatever reason, then just sideload it from this link here.
(apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/good-lock/good-lock-24-0-16-release/good-lock-24-0-16-android-apk-download)
--enter the link without the brackets, xda won't allow me to post links until I have made 10 posts--
I'm not sure if this will work in Nougat, as in the website it said that the minimum version of Android is Marshmallow, and the maximum version of Android is Marshmallow.
If you are willing to take the risk, try it and let us know if it will work.
Hope I helped!

It is pretty much impossible
You can't enable it Samsung and other companies have disabled it in manufacturing

How to enable system UI tuner in Samsung j5 prime

Go here and try it. I did get it working on my s7 edge non rooted but I recently had to do a factory reset and I can't get it to work. https://www.recovery-android.com/tips/access-system-ui-tuner-s7.html

i think this would be a better decision as it wouldnt require a computer.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zacharee1.systemuituner
simply enable with adb once and you can tweak your phone anywhere without having to use a computer

[7/8/16] Meet the new Samsung UI....

From 1st to 4th... New lock screen, new recents, new notification shade (2 pics).
7/8/16- Download latest version of Good Lock app (v24.0.11)

what is this? it doesn't look like anything out right now....how did you get it?

Apparently you can download the apk from sammobile but it's not working for me... I get a parsing package error. I'm on 5.1.1 when I tried this so you probably need 6.0.1 for it to work. On sammobile, the post was towards s7/s7e users through...

Give the dowbload link

Here's link

quick review:
1. it looks nice, but you can't change the color of the notification panel and toggles
2. the recent apps screen reminds me of older android versions, no picture or tabs, just the name of the app
hope they update it with some more settings

You can change the colours by editing the default routine, or creating a new one.

thanks, but it's a bit annoying, if you make your own profile it needs to have the location toggle on, if you cancel it everytime you wake up the device it asks to enable location toggle, and pressing the recent apps button is slow, and when you press the home button to get to the home screen there is a delay....i guess it's not ready yet

Same problems as you. Uninstalled....... for now. Hopefully it gets lots of updates with new features, bug fixes, etc. That'd be really awesome. Can't wait to see how this develops.

Screen Pinning

I feel very silly since I know that I know my way around Android, but anyone know where screen pinning is on the Axon 7? Looking at the security tab under settings there is no screen pinning option and searching reveals nothing in the settings app. Stock ZTE ROM B27 A2017U. Thanks!

Bump

@J-Pod There is this screen lock thing for apps so you can't get rid of it.

That's smth else... Screen pinning means that one can't leave the app that has been pinned to the screen...
For me it was actually very useful on my last phone when I passed it to children and wanted them to stick with the open app or game rather then to mess around in my phone.. A pity that it seems to be unsupported..

Ah OK. I don't see it in settings.

I have the screen pinning option in my recents list, but I don't see the option in settings.
I could swear it was there before, so it might be missing in the B27 firmware.
B29 should be available soon - hopefully the option will return.

Anyone know if there is a nova launcher shortcut or ADB command that can enable it? Or is it completely torn out of the build?

Missing toggles in notification bar (Android 7.1.1)?

Hi y'all !
I just bought Nokia 6 last night and notice that there are some toggles missing in the notification bar which are available in my other phone running Android 7.0.
Such as the screenshot toggle, Volume toggle, sound profile toggle and so more, they are obviously not in the "Drag to add tiles". I hope Nokia didn't remove them.
Also, how i can make the battery percentage indicator appear next to the battery icon instead of inside the battery icon?

If you enabled System UI Tuner you can enable battery percentage.
To turn on Sytem UI Tuner, you need to press the little cog symbol in the corner of the toggle window until ut rotates. After that you find the system ui tuner menu in the bottom of the settings menu. And there under status bar you can enable battery percentage. As far as the other tiles are concerned, I don't know uf they are part of the rom.

thanks for the reply. But by turning on Sytem UI Tuner, i can only enable the battery percentage indicator INSIDE the battery icon which is too small to see...

Yeah, I know, sorry. But until some devs come along and actually start developing ROMs and stuff for this thing that's all we can get for now I assume.

By the way, the Gallery app is also missing from Nokia 6, Google photo is standard default photo viewing app now?

missing a lot of tiles bother me too, but there are apps out there that can add tiles, so it's not much a big problem.

the more i look at it, the more missing features i find. I just came across a review about this phone on YouTube, strangely enough there are some settings from the video are not available on my phone.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmj17fDxuYk
The missing settings i was talking about are at 3:03 and at 3:42 in the video.

Yup no Gallery app in this one. I don't like google fotos either, so I disabled it and installed Quick Pic instead. It's a good app.

Hello! Help with the decision, please!
I bought a Nokia 6 in China, the version was 7.0, and the function updated the update 7.1.1 and tried to install it via Recovery from the SD card, at the last stage received an error message. Now the phone is downloaded only in Recovery, and then the download is not. What can you recommend? How to restore the phone? What is the version of the firmware?

Well, adb sideload works on the phone. But I don't know any place to download Roms or OTA files.

the one in the video is the first release version (TA-1000, china exclusive i think). the launcher app is different from the Taiwan release version(TA-1003).
TA-1003's launcher app is a modified version of launcher3, while TA-1000's looks like it's called launcher+(at 3:08 in the video you linked.)
