App info - Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers

On my nexus 6 when I dragged an app icon up from the app drawer, I would get choices like cancel, app info, and uninstall... All I get on my pixel xl is cancel and uninstall. How do I get it to say app info?
Thanks

The "App Info" option appears for apps that can be frozen, but not uninstalled. All apps can be uninstalled on the Pixel, so you'll never see that option.

App info still shows for every app for me..

How did you set up your phone? Was ot a clean install, or did you tranfers settings from another phone using the usb cable?

Figured it out. You have to turn on developer options, reboot, and then it is there

Or that

Problems with nova launcher

For some reason or another my dock won't show. I keep enabling dock in settings but once I go to an app or lock the screen it disappears.
Is there a way to reset the settings in nova?

This behavior is normal... the dock is hidden when on the lockscreen or in an application. You want it to show all the time?
Edit: I think I understand now. Make a backup through Nova, update it, then wipe the data. See if that fixes it.

Strange. I stopped nova, cleared data and cache. Now everything is back to normal.

There is a gesture setting to hide the dock. Swipe up is the default if it's on.

Texting app?

The native app is not notifying me of a message. The dumb verizon messages app is. If I turn off the notification in the VZW app, it stops the native from notifying. Anyone?
Anyone?
maybe the verizon one is set as the default messaging app

Settings - apps - select the Verizon messages app and then click clear defaults, now select the original one as your main one
Lol I just disabled the dumb Verizon one all together under app settings among with most of there bloat crap for now at least. It's been a day and I'm already considering rooting and beating this thing up a bit. ?

[REQUEST]Theme Edit

Hello!
I installed the android lollipop theme from the web. Everything is transparent except the mirror effect down by the favourite apps (google play, chrome...)
I would ask if someone could remove the mirror effect/bar?
I hope this message isn't against the rules

Thanks

Get the GEM xperia xposed app from the xposed framework, then reboot. Open the app, hit launcher, click dock, then tick hide reflection and hide stage. Now go back and click restart launcher. Now go back to your desktop and check if it is what you wanted

I use Textra as well, I have the AT&T version and have not had any problems. I would suggest emailing the dev, they may have an easy answer for you.
With the app installed, go to setting >apps and then find tetra and then check the permissions section. Make sure the required permission is enabled there.

All permissions are good.
Running Textra on my Sprint Note 7 and have not seen that pop up. Do you have any security/virus protection apps installed?
No problems at all on my T-Mobile Note 7 w/Textra.
I've sent pix/GIFs/etc...... without any issues whatsoever.
Could possibly be an ad blocker acting up or,if you've disabled something using one of the disabler apps available..................
It was the overlay was turned off.

Tapatalk Restarting After Being Minimized (Memory management)

Just curious,
Is there anyway to keep Tapatalk in persistent memory so it doesn't completely close and reopen when I hit the icon instead of accessing it through recents? Not a huge deal, just annoying on occasion when I forget to go to recents and hit the icon instead
Sent from my Pixel XL
If I'm not mistaken, go to.... Settings > Battery > Battery settings > Battery Optimization, view all apps from drop down, find Tapatalk and change it to Don't optimize.
Let me know if that works!

Nexus 6 came with some stuff also. Some for Verizon and some from sprint. If you can not delete it you may have to wait for root to delete it from system.
What's weird is we got Google purchase devices getting Verizon apps pre installed and Verizon purchased ones like mine that never got Verizon apps installed until I finally installed a couple that I use....
