Reminder is gone? - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Themes, Apps, and Mods

Hello, I cant find reminder in phone. Install apk dont work and galaxy apps and google apps dont find anything. Does somebody have working app? Sorry for english

You sure?

The app is there but you think to "need" to use it first. i.e. reject a call with a text etc and that will prompt the phone to launch the app for the first time. After that it will ask you if you wish to create a shortcut. I did this using a Nova Launcher activity widget to start the app and now I have the icon showing under the apps list as usual.

I have the same issue too. I see the reminder app in the apps installed list but nowhere as an icon or app in Samsung Experiece.
I tried the above method also but no prompt of reminder.

Just ask Bixby to set a Reminder for you, that's what I did and then I had the icon.

I don't have the guts to activate Bixby haha

If you don't want to try Bixby, try "Nova Launcher" and create an Activity widget. Use the widget to launch the Reminder MainUI applet

In settings, under apps, go into the reminder app and in the top right corner you will see the settings icon. Select that, toggle on the online storage and finish configuring. (Add places, etc.) After you do this you will see the app icon in your app drawer.

[Q] Removing recommended shortcuts from drop down menu

Is it possible to remove the recommended earphone shortcuts that appear in the drop down notification when headphone are connected?

I would like to know the same thing. On my S2 (JB4.1) there is a menu option to disable this (System / Accessory / Audio Applications). They seem to have removed this option on the S4 - it's not on the Accessory options screen...
Could someone explain to me what the "recommended shortcuts (earphones)" actually is and where can I configure it? I like the idea, yet I'd like to configure it.
But I can't seem to find a setting or app. Is it really connected to a "Page buddy" app? I have no such app on my SGS4.

when you plug in earphones to ur galaxy u get a set of recommanded apps to run in the status bar i have it on my galaxy s2 but on my s3 can't find it
OK, I've worked out how to disable this.
The notification comes from com.android.pagebuddynotisvc, which is called PageBuddyNotiSvc in the application manager ('All' tab). You can disable this service, and the notification + shortcut icons in the dropdown menu will now not appear.
Thanks pennas, I also noticed the "PageBuddy" app meanwhile, should've looked more carefully in the first place.
It's not that annoying to me, but I just still don't understand what the benefit is, when I can't configure it. Because the apps showing also seem to change. Meh.

I think he wants to disable the task manager/switcher completely while his app is in the foreground. He doesn't want to exclude his app from it.

That would need your app to be in system, which you cannot do manually from the Play Store.
Or u have to make your own task manager from where your launcher will be excluded.

Showing it in the Task Manager does not require any special requirements. All apps are shown there unless you add any one of the lines in my earlier post.
not necessary

I might be seen as a hater here, but why would you want people to not be able to uninstall your app? Never have I seen an app that needs this functionality...

Well, most times it doesn't make sense. However, it is useful if you develop a kids mode app. So that they are limited to just those apps you allow them to use. Or some security app which has to be prevented from unauthorized uninstalling using a password.

[Q] Shortcut to Recent Call Log

I'm trying to create a shortcut to open up the Recent Call Log versus opening up the dialer. I'm using Apex Launcher and searched through activities, but can't seem to find the one that leads to the Recent Call Log. Any suggestions?

Thanks. That activity brings up the recent call log selection screen (where I can check recent calls to delete or edit). I'm looking for the recent call log screen where I can simply swipe to right to dial or left to message.
I can use your activity and simply press bback button after it is launched, but am hoping for a more direct method.

Oh OK.
Open Activities > Contacts (same place as before) and scroll all the way down to 5 green phone icons in a row. Find Phone > RecentCallsListActivity (3rd phone icon from the top), that should do it.

Hmm... Make sure to look under Activities > Contacts > Phone and not under Activities > Phone.
Carrier shouldn't matter, but a launcher might. You may want to try Nova Launcher just to see if this option is available.
Also, there is always an app for everything: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=se.erikofsweden.erikutil

I don't see the Phone submenu under Activities>Contancts. Tried looking for it with Xshortcuts too.
I've tried that app out, but there's a significant lag opening Recent Calls.

Just swipe away the apps you want to close manually and leave the desired one there, close all will close all, there's no way to change that.

You can lock the apps and prevent them from closing. In the recent apps, there is a 3 dot menu in the top right corner. Tap it and you will see the option for locking apps.

Ha what do you know, didn't know it had that feature, nice one!
I have this same problem. Trying to find a way to lock my Tile App. Turned off my battery saver so system wont close open apps. Tried everything i could think of and that is suggested
on line. Nothing works. Tile cant even help.
How do I do what you suggest?
How do I access the recent apps? Is it through the 3 line button at bottom of sceen where it shows small pages of everything open or somewhere else?
When I look there....the individual pages don't show the 3 dots.
Thank you for any help you can offer!

Hi,
What you mean "tap on tile app"? I can not find "allow background activity". Phone is galaxy s8, android pie.
Few days back a call recorder apk sent me there and I realize this option is not deleted from android. It just hidden, like stop FB updates.

See the gif I attached
Ok problem resolved.
There is three options to be set:
1) "Sleeping aps" - go to Settings and type in search bar on top "Sleeping aps"
I Add all apk except: AutoBlutooth, Button mapper, Call recorder, Weather widget, Email and messaging apk
2) "Optimize battery usage" - go to Settings and type in search bar on top "Optimize battery usage" Click again on top row "Optimize battery usage", Click on "App not optimized" and change to "All", find apk that make problem by sleeping.
I Disable :AutoBlutooth, Button mapper, Call recorder, ect. I do not add here email and messaging apk, as they never have sleeping issues. Maybe because not have 3day(default sleep setting) not using them in a row.
3) "Allow background activity" - go to Settings==>>Apps==>>Select application you want not to sleep==>>Battery==>>Allow background activity
It will be set to Enable to all apk, that are not added to "Sleeping aps"
Additional step:
"Device admin apps" - If Application is already here, can give Admin status. It will prevent accidental change of "Optimize battery usage" and "Allow background activity"
p.s
This why my messaging apps have Enabled Allow background activity and Optimise battery usage.
Button mapper, Call recorder ect have Enabled Allow background activity and Disabled Optimise battery usage
