Now im wondering what might have gone wrong. I searched settings but can't find something that could enable it.
I appreciate who ever helps me with this.

Hi, once you install Google search this option will show up in your recent menu

Yes i actually have google search app 4.1 installed. So i dont know what else is the problem.

Tap the 3 white dots in the right top corner and tap settings......then change the style......the 3 white dots in your first screenie

Select the vertical 3 dot on top - you'll see "settings".
Select "settings" - you'll see "Layout"
Select "Layout" - you'll see "Card View" and "Grid View"
Select which one that you prefer.

I see... the first screenshot is not yours.
No idea then... maybe try settings - apps - all - htc blinkfeed - clear data
(you need to setup your homescreen again)
See also whether you can clear the SystemUI data (maybe can't - usually data button is greyed out)

no luck. i don't know what's happened with my update. am i the only one?

I have seen a few people have this problem with the missing 3 dots. No idea what's causing it.

Did those few people tried factory reset and worked again?

Solved it after doing a factory reset, but after a few days, happened again, this time, just the google search bar was gone.
I cleared the data and cache of htc blinkfeed, google play services, google search. Still nothing. I was about to submit the bug report to htc, but their email support's not working at all.

recent apps issue on lollipop
i have the same exact issue on my asian m8x, doing a factory reset...hoping it will be fixed :silly:

factory reset did fix the recent apps issue, but the google search bar disappeared as well after a day or so. i think it's an issue with the updated google search app. launching google now from the home button, the google circle thingy doesn't have the "Google" text in it, just a plain white circle...

I don't think it's from the new version of google app, cause I got this type of problem first with version 3.6 or whatever version it is before 4.1. Have you guys tried sumbmitting a bug report to htc website or where ever they receive bug reports?

No one had this problem but me and @shievary?

I have the same problem...and I won't do factory reset for this tiny problem.

Again i did a factory reset. I restored my apps using helium premium and htc account backup and restore. Works fine now, hopefully it stays this way.

I had the exact same problem with my European HTC one m8 and I have seemed to fix it by turning my screen landscape when I press recent apps

I was having the same issue, and discovered that uninstalling the "screen off and lock" app seemed to fix it. Do you guys have it installed?

Error when closing Settings screen
I just installed this version.
The good: when opening a calendar-item a correct OK-button is shown, didn't have that with previous versions
The bad: when closing the Settings screen (any tab) an error message appears: "Shell - An unhandled error has occured in the shell. Attempting to restart the shell". Tapping OK restarts the device.

I'm using 1.5.1 without any issues - it does bring up 'Desktop' which is the Today screen, as a a process that can be stopped. If you do this then you can't get back to the Today screen without a restart.
I added it as an exclusive to avoid any accidents.

Which setting are you using for closing applications?
End programs by tapping "X"?
Or: End programs by tapping and holding "X"?
When I set for 'tapping and holding' the Settings screen closes OK when tapping, but it does not close OK when I tap & hold when I want to close the Settings screen.
For me version 1.5.1 is not usable. I do not want to remember when to tap and when to tap&hold for closing any screen.

Does your Settings screen close OK?
Even if you tap & hold to close the Settings screen?
I am using LVSW's rom of 19/05/07. Maybe that rom isn't totally OK with X-button 1.51 (or visa versa).
Hi,
this version isn't better then 1.5.
@ latest AKU 3.3 the tool shows "dektop" in Today-menu - stop all will stop also Desktop ... I'm back zo 1.5. this works fine for me

I have restarted the device, allowed unknow sources etc. It happends after updating on Android 2.3.3
Ou yes. I am using stock, original ROM. No ROOT.
Does it happen with all apps or just with one?
I have tested it with about 10 apps.
Installing over USB cabel with HTC sync is working.
Also installing apps from market is working, but i cant install (cant click install) apk from memory card

Sorry, disregard post.
hi, i found out that i have the same problem too. the issue is that if you have screen filter on, this would happen, so for now, simply turn off screen filter before you install.
Thx its fixed for me now

Thx man.
I know this is a little old but it was my first result when googling the problem so wanted to say thanks and add that, in my case, I had the "Rounded Corners" app running and this caused the problem. I stopped that and was then able to hit install.
Thanks

No, it helped only for a while. It doesn't work now
first try taping on other tabs, and than install.
Or scroll to the end of permissions (looks like intentional buyer protection) than it should be available.

Hello, I have the same problem with not being able to push the INSTALL button. Sorry, could you point me to where screen filter is located--I cannot find it anywhere in Settings? Much appreciate!

Do you have any brightness afjuzting application? If yes then you will find screen filter in that application settings
Thanks doesn't hurt....
Bumping because I just had this same problem with a Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300 international from Telcel in Mexico running stock ROM.
I literally didn't even know of the existence of Screen Filter until now, so what worked was stopping every single app that was drawing overlays: Facebook inbox, GO Power Master, SuperSU and Battery Mix (it draws a discrete little bar at the top of the screen indicating your remaining battery). Now it works all fine.
The lesson here is that if you can't install .apk's, you have to disable EVERY SINGLE APP THAT DRAWS OVERLAYS, starting with the ones you currently have running, then the ones that could draw overlays: in my case, GO Power Master draws one when the phone heats or when battery runs low, SuperSU pops the kdesudo-like dialog, and Facebook inbox has pop-up Chat Heads.
I had to close out Halo.. That was the app that over layed

thats the Rom i tried but it does not like what it described
It is sooooo simple once you know how, and I'll teach you right now.
use the dialer and press the button to check email.
then look in the logs of the dialer and add the number that was dialed to your contacts as message
then, do this:
1. Long press on an empty space on your homescreen
2. Select “Shortcuts”
3. Select “Direct dial”
4. Select Contact you wish to have as a direct dial - that would be "Message" or whatever you named that contact
To add a direct dial shortcut on a device running Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich):
1. Press the main app drawer icon (middle icon in system tray)
2. Scroll to “Widgets” folder (on the right) until you reach the “Direct Dial” widget
3. Press and hold the “Direct dial” widget until you see the home screen grid
4. Release the direct dial widget wherever you’d like your widget (shortcut) to appear on the home screen
5. Once you release the widget (shortcut) it will pull up your Contacts list
6. Select Contact you wish to have as a direct dial
You do not have to do both. Just one of the sets, depending on your ROM version.
Good Luck & Aloha!
thanks
but hmm actually did u see the screen shot at the last pic?
what i want is the message button at left down corner but after i flash the rom its voice mail
any idea?

Then it's even simpler...
longpress on the homescreen and select add shortcuts
at the next screen, select Applications
Then just scroll to the messaging application of your choice...... it would be messaging if you had not installed any thing like chomp or whatever.
That's all, but you will not be able to change the icon on the dialer to go to something other than whatever is programmed in the dialer app itself... Which for all the roms I've seen, its Voicemail Messages.
Here is the only one I can find and it has the msg button you want.
you can easily have it pushed to your phone for nstallation by clicking on the link, and when the screen changes to the playstore site, click on the install box on the top left.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.acts29.SmartDial&hl=en
I presume you don't read Korean so when you open the app, there will be 2 check boxes on the right side, just below the midpoint of the screen. check both and press the yes on the bottom of the screen This is the EULA for the app.
When the app opens, you can press settings on the top right and tap the Language setting down arrow and select English
There are a bunch of options you can choose or not to have enabled..
The app is free, so if you don't like it, uninstall, and no loss....
If you want to just do it from the phone, go to market, and search for Smartdial
You will see 2. Pick the one with (Dialer)
you should be good to go.
With this app, no matter what ROM you use or choose in the future, it will have your msg button!
Hope it solves your quest!
Aloha!
thanks
hmm but lol still kinda not what i want sorry
good idea though
just wondering how to custom the dialer app now :s

Homeacreen weather widget showing question mark?

My pixel Xl homescreen weather widget which I use with nova launcher is just displaying a question mark "?". If I open the weather widget and search for other locations besides my current one it displays the wether fine just not my weather. This is happening with the pixel launcher as well. It was working fine and just all of a sudden stopped working. Location is enabled and nothing has really changed. Any ideas please?

I've looked thoroughly into the settings to figure out what may be causing your issue and the only thing I can think is that your location data is being denied to the widget, but I don't know how to fix or check that because the widget doesn't show in any of the settings. Maybe something in the location settings is turned off. Sorry I can't be of more help!
Edit: Go into Settings then Apps, click the cog wheel(top right), click app permissions(top option), click location, click 3 dot button(top right), click show system, scroll down to pixel launcher and turn it to on. See if that fixes it.

Hey,
I really appreciate your help thanks a lot.
Unfortunately that didn't do it and neither did a reflash of the ROM. However your suggestions got me thinking and I downloaded a mock location app and interestingly all locations except my very own show the weather. Im suspecting for some reason or another the location data for my area is not being shown by Google and I suspect this may not be just for me but with no other pixels around it's hard to know. Im waiting to travel out of my area and see if my suspicions are correct and it will make sense seeing it just happened out of the blue. Now the question is how do I report such a specific fault to google and not have to wait 5 years for a fix.

If you have a Pixel you can get support on the web via chat or email or request a call back. Yours sounds like a problem they may be able to help with. Just out of curiosity does your GPS app work ok?

Weird notification UI changes in Android 11/OneUI 3.0 update.

I've been working with the new update the last few days, and noticed some odd changes made by Samsung.
Most annoying is this huge gap between my toggles and brightness slider/notifications. I have disabled the media controls and have no background apps running.
I think they attempted to make notifications easier to access for one hand operation, but we need a way to change this! Or give me the option to add all of my toggles into the gap!

I think it's the place for "Device and Media buttons". Try to activate in "Quick panel layout". There's "Show device and media buttons above notification" option. Maybe on then off.
I don´t have that gap in my Note 10+. Just below the 6 icons I have the brightness slider. Weird.
No gap here either.
I have similar problem. Only that i have a problem with whole screen notification window even though it is empty.

Figured it out! Tidal was running in the background but not showing, so I turned off the app notifications for it.

That usually happen when no factory format is made between hard UI changes.
The objects and placeholders stay there even though they are empty. Have you tried a factory reset after UI3 update?
That also happened on KITKAT to Marshmellow and was a usual issue when the update wasn't factory reset afterwards.
The UI would update and new elements were put in place but the old ones would still be there and originated large gaps or invisible toggles.
