Here's the screenShot.

And the cog/settings icon is there at the top right corner, as it should. Not sure if I completely understand what you're problem is.

Can you post a screen shot of your app manager?

The cog at the top right corner is the settings cog and I see no correlation with the Application screen. Are we on the same page?

Re: Cog icon in apps settings Marshmallow

What are you trying to do? Are you trying to add a shortcut for the settings on the home screen, enable the system UI tuner ... ?

I'm on Verizon, too, and I don't think the System UI Tuner is available. I've tried enabling it, as instructed from various sources, and it doesn't seem to be an option. I'd love to be wrong.

Unfortunately you're right As far as I know Samsung didn't include the UI tuner in their update.

Now what? I really appreciate your help. It's very frustrating.

Not sure, I think that cog you mention is not included in your phone. What options do you get in settings - application manager - three dots top right? If you have one called 'advanced' tap on it and check the sub-menu. Still, I'm not sure what you want to do with that cog. These are the options included in Moto and Nexus devices after you tap on the cog in the app manager.

Re: Cog icon in apps settings Marshmallow

Let me explain what I'm trying to do. In Lollipop, in the share menu, I could select any program from the list and have to answer a question "do this all the time, or just once. That option is no longer available, but I understand it's somewhere in marshmallow. I just need to find it. Can anyone directly to the correct area for me to do this?. Thanks.

Now I see and I don't have very good news for you. This 'just once/always' option has been removed in many Samsung devices, mostly carrier locked. Your best option could be using a third party app from the Play Store. This issue has been discussed for different devices in this thread. Take a look.

What do you think of the lack of "Just once" and "Always" on the S7?

Looks to me like you are in Easy Mode. Easy settings > Easy mode > Standard mode > Done...

I think it sucks. Why would they get rid of such a useful tool?

Re: Marshmallow settings

I don't have the All Apps option. Your screen shot doesn't look like mine.

Just wanted you to know that I'm on Verizon/6.0.1/S5, and I do have the All Apps option on my phone.

What happens if you tap on the 3 dots on the right side? Can you sort or select disabled apps there?

That's interesting. We have identical phones, identical operating system versions. Are you using TouchWiz?

Re: Marshmallow settings

OK - I am using Nova Launcher, but I switched it back to TouchWiz and TouchWiz Easy and BOTH of those options show the "All Apps" down arrow.

Just out of curiousity, can you post a screenshot of your "About Device" screen? Let's have a look at the firmware and baseband versions...

This is all the screens on the About Device. I hope they help.
