I downloaded bixremap, so Google Assistant would open when I pressed the Bixby button. It didn't seem to work, so I deleted the app, and now the button does nothing when pressed. Long press, short press, double tap, it does nothing. How do I get Bixby back? I can't find any settings in the phone. Please help.

Did you clear cache and restart?

First, thank you for the advice. I did, however, come across a solution after more research. The key thing I needed to realize all this time, was that the advice I had found, was always assuming I was using the stock home launcher. I wasn't. So, when I tried to swipe left, no Bixby screen came up, so I just assumed that I had somehow disabled that, as well. So, to disable, and enable Bixby, make sure the stock home launcher is running.
