What phone are you using? What advance settings app?
Considering you are not rooted, you should try to restart your phone, wipe cache or if nothing works, restore it to factory settings.

I have just replaced my HD2 with a Desire S.
Its not rooted and has a stock rom 2.3.5.
I am placing the stock Power Control on Homescreen but the widget is completely Blank. I cant edit it.
I have done a factory reset twice but the issue remains.
3rd party Power Widgets from google Market seem to work ok.
Can anyone advise

Can you provide screenshots to elaborate please?
I cant see how a screen shot would help explain the problem.
I have had the phone about a week and have tried most functions, they all seem to work fine.
The ONLY fault seems to be the stock power widget.
I understand the widget is supposed to have 5 customisable functions i.e Wifi, gps, etc toggle switches
But I only get a grey rectangle with 5 blanks.
I assume its a corrupt firmware. (Virgin Media)
I have done hard and factory resets.
Please advise where and how I can reload the stock firmware?

I was only trying to help man... because i wanted to see what you were talking about. No issues... if you feel this is unnecessary, i'll leave you to it.
Cheers.
Have you tried using recovery to reset the entire phone? It should reinstall the os for you.

Problem Solved
installed Power Control widget on Homescreen
Selected Settings>Wireless & Networks>Wifi
Tick & Untick Wifi
thank you
thanks you so much it works on my htc explorer
I updated to lolipop, rooted and unlocked BL and some things are missing, most notably the nvidia power control. Pretty sure my tab is stuck in low performance/battery saving mode and the settings page to go to performance or whatever is no longer present.
So I was wondering if there was a place I can get the apps, or if any rooted users can pull them off theirs and share them.
I have the 16gb wifi.

Did you hard reset after updating?
Need to ftr.
Also, menu has changed on L5, add a settings widget to your home screen for power saving, there is soc menu.

I have only done normal reboots since updating, it did not freeze or restart during the update if thats what you meant.
I don't know what the issue is, but lots of apps broke across the update. Things like facebook give me -506 error not installing but the apk is still in /data/app.

I've heard FB has some kind of issue that some recommend to uninstall for time being.
I mean a hard reset, not a reboot. Go into settings, back up & reset, wipe all. You will lose everything, back up what you want save.
Always a good idea to wipe when doing a large update such as L5, and especially L5.

So no one is willing to share I take it...

Power Control is hidden on Lollipop.
Go to Home Screen and add a witget for settings, then select Power Saving for the option. That should bring you the original Shield Power Control.
The instructions to enable system ui tuner on the web don't appear to be working...holding down the sprocket on the toggle screen till it spins doesn't enable the menu...anyone else know how to get to it?
Also still looking for a way (non xposed) to assign long hold of back button to kill foreground app.
Should say system UI tuner added to settings after holding for about 5 seconds.

It should..I agree...thats what all the suggestions say and I can see the wheel spin....but it's not in the list. Are you saying it worked for you? If so I may need to go back to a fresh install and try this again.

For me also it worked.
I finally got the thing to appear and I'm still not certain how...I think marshmallow is much more picky about the touchscreen and the glass screen protector I have on it....taps are not being interpreted right all the time....anyway thanks for confirming. Ironically by the time I enabled the menu I had already enabled xposed and found ways to set all the things I woul d have been able to do from system ui.
Hi there, anyon knows how to get rid of that message? it's frankly driving me nuts...
Thx
Its in the settings.
I dont have my phone yet(will by tonight) but from the reviews i say there was a setting to add the normal app drawer icon and disable the swipe.

Yes there is. You can either have no drawer or a drawer icon. I'll let you discover how in settings.
Go to settings then display and turn on easy stand
Easy stand? Haven't seen that yet...
I think I didn't explain myself correctly, I want to get rid of the Text message that scrolls from time to time and keep the swipe...
same issue

Driving me crazy as well. I'm either going to go back to Nova Pro or I'm going to turn on the app tray icon.

I remember that it's some built in "help and tips " app but I don't remember what it's exactly called. In it you can disable all these annoying hints.
gone away
after my first reboot and a night on the charger it is gone. maybe a number of uses gets rid of it.

Hello, I have figured this out after searching and coming up empty. It was annoying me too.
Press and hold on the home screen like you're going to add a widget. Click 'home screen settings'. Click apps button and choose 'show apps button'
The swipe motion will still work to open the apps.
Take care

Use the Samsung members app. Log in and use the device management in there to clean ram and storage. It stopped for me after using that.
Just enable and apply the Apps Button, then disable and apply the Apps Button and it will go away.
use nova launcher,done,never appears.
Just got a new replacement device after a cracked screen and the "swipe up Or down on screen for all apps" won't go away on home screen. Never an issue on my old device. Does anyone have any new details on this besides a work around?
I will go away in a week or so. Mine was driving me nuts and it went away without me doing anything.
Just scroll up or down through the app/home screen 20-30 times in a row and it will go away. It was driving me nuts and I found this discussion. Saw it was going away after a certain amount of time so I scrolled through it a ton and it was gone. Lol.
Reboot
I went through the swiping up and swiping down and it still showed the message after. But then I shut down the phone and powered it on and it was gone. Just like another user mentioned.
I seemed to have lost the camera icon from my home screen (not lock screen) and can't get it back. i have looked at all posts related to finding the icon and no luck. I have an A42 %g phone and all options i try come up empty. No where can i find an icon to push and hold to transfer to the home screen. Can anyone lend a helping hand??? Any help is appreciated. thanks

Think back to what happened before this occurred. Any new apps or unusual behavior?
Malware or spontaneous corruption is a possibility.
Factory reset if you give up trying to track it down or can't. Reflash stock rom if that fails.
didn't really do anything. must have been inadvertent. Opened up my phone to take a pic and the icon that used to be att the bottom of my home page was gone. Tried to find the icon to restore it to that location but cannot find one. I can double tap the power button to open it but cannot find the icon. Tried everything i know and still nothing,
