[Q] Download system apps? - Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

Settings-->barrery, then tap the overflow menu in upper right

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.

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.

GALAXY S6 SM-G920F Problems

I just bought the mentioned phone and I'm experiencing some weird problems on it. For example, I disabled most of the google apps by going to the App menu > Edit and disabled them by pressing the "minus" on the icon. Now if I want to re-enable them in Settings > Applications by going to the Disabled Apps section, pressing Enable and it gives me the option to DISABLE it again? WTF? Seems like I can't enable any app I disabled now..
The second thing is, it's more of a question really.. If I long press the home button, it only makes a short vibration and does nothing at all, is that normal or should something pop-up?
I mean really!? Ok, when you've pressed the enable toogle and the toggle becomes "disable" it means the app is already enabled and it gives you the option to disable it again.
Long press of the home button brings you to google now app, you must have disabled it.

I don't understand the bold text I quoted from you.. What do you mean? I clearly stated that I've disabled an app, and if I press to enable it, it offers me to disable it.. which is, already disabled?!?!?
Sorry for the misunderstanding but I don't get it how could I disable a already disabled app?!?

I mean when the button has the word "disable" on it. It means it's already running and app is ready for use.. Vice versa, if it has the word "enable" on the button.

I have DISABLED an app, therefore the app is DISABLED. If I want to enable it, the button there clearly says "Enable" but when I try to do that, I get a pop up as I was trying to disable it, which it already is.. Why don't you get it? xD

Ohh I get it now, if you've disabled it and the app is already updated, and you're trying to enable it again. Just click the pop up to disable it again, it just wants you to uninstall the updates and it reverts back to the apps factory version, and press the enable toggle again, the app will be enabled. You just have to reupdate the app again. In the touchwiz home you can directly disable an app but in the applications manager when you try to disable apps you have to uninstall the updates. Since disabling through the home launcher is just a shortcut.
Just touchwiz things.

It's normal, if you're not rooted. It's not really a bug, it's just a feature of touchwiz. My stock S5 and S4 has this, too.

Oh okay then.. I thought I got some faulty phone Any news on when is the ram management fix coming? Seems like my ram is staying at 80-90% at all times.. even when I'm not running any apps..
Also, do you recommend disabling the apps you don't use? For example I have disabled most of the google apps on there, since I'm not prone to use them..

Anyone managed to get to system ui tuner?

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.

Nougat known bugs thread *Updated*

Hi
I wanted a thread where we all write down the bugs we have found and report them together to get them fixed a lot faster.
I will keep updating the thread as more bugs are found or posted by other members.
Bugs so far:
Android Wear/Nougat bug - If you enable "Ignore phone when using the watch" feature in Android Wear and then click "Find Phone" on the watch, the phone won't ring. This worked on Marshmallow. It disables "android device administrator" too if you set it to ring your phone. Also worked before Nougat.
Some users report problem with Google Play Services when downloading apps.
Some people report double application icons in settings.
smart view case not working properly when on AOD feature.
Missing colors in Peoples Edge feature.
Screen mirroring doesn't work with a ue50ku6000 samsung smart tv.
Some users report different kind of Facebook bugs.
After playing clash royale I go home switch to other app and lock phone. Then I get a notification (sound enabled) and after notification sound is played Clash Royale music starts to play even with phone locked on black screen.

Gallery app is not good.
For example gallery album preview optimization is really bad. Assume you have folders worth 2 scrolling pages. When you scroll back and forth, it always loads the album previews again and again and again idiotically.
Another example is that you are looking images in an album, you clicked and image, scrolled,scrolled and scrolled a lot of images. If you press back button you see last image is centered on album. But if you exit via zoom out gesture, you are doomed. Album is centered on first image.
Also scrolling between tabs on gallery is laggy. If you have a notification on gallery (the smart thing asking for if you want this collage etc) after going in the notifications exiting via back button freezes for a couple secs.

Had the issue too. Disabled power saving mode and/or data saver made it work again (still a bug, as data saver and/or power saving mode (background data off) makes Google Play Services stop.

Sorry if its not clear. The reason being not good is because it is full of little bugs. I thought anyone used can understand that.

My notifications went silent, and when I tried to change the notification tone for sms, it said that I can't change the sound whilst I am on a call even though I hadn't been on a call in hours. Anyone else had this??
Camera filter doesn't show in camera interface (although i installed new ones).
Antutu score seems lower than MM version.
Sim Card manager text issues are still not resolved.
Inside apps I am not able to long press and copy text however this should be android native functionality not apps functionality. Used to work everywhere in MM.
after flashing BTU firmware I cant find all the themes in theme store. Majority of good themes are missing.

I think morw people must have this problem, its just a matter of time for it to show up.
No i did not click re-partition as it says in sammobile web to not click it, ive done some updates in my other galaxy phone and not a problem with that, lets wait and see if anyone has a solution, or wait for another update
I don't know if is a bug, but AOD looks a step backwards from beta1, this one doesn't change its own brightness, and since yesterday I didn't see changing position neither, anyone noticed the same?

[Q] Getting rid of the Swipe up or down for the applications drawer message.

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...

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.

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.
