Google App bottom tab buttons disappearing after first launch - OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers

Hello,
I've discovered that if I go to the storage options of the Google search application, and clear both the app data, and history and flow data, when launching the app for the first time, I'm getting this new presentation (shown eof October / beg November, as shown here : https://www.androidpolice.com/2017/10/31/google-testing-5-tab-design-google-app/ )
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And when I launch the app again after that, I get the old presentation :
Why ??
What's wrong with my phone ? I've just made a factory reset, everything is clean, so why this behavior ?

It is normal. Just Google's server experiments.

Just for information, the issue was caused by the Nova launcher add-on to have Google search opened on a swipe.

How to freeze navigation (blue arrow)

I've freezed google maps, so maps and lattitude are invisible in the menu. But the blue arrow called 'navigation' is still there and I can't find a way to freeze it because it's not in the list of titanium backup or system/apps (or i can't find it)
Who knows how to freeze it?
I mean this icon:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Anybody?
You can't, it's a part of Google Maps, not a separate app. I've no idea why freezing Maps would leave it behind, but I guess that's just the way it is.
Hmm really not sure mate had a look online and couldnt find anything! someone else has already asked in this forum so could be work asking if they found a solution.

[APP] Kill My Account

This is the first unofficial application for AccountKiller.com, a website which provides instructions for deleting your account in a list of sites. There are three lists:
1. Whitelist: list of website where we can easy delete our account;
2. Greylist: list of website where there is a way for deleting our account but it is not so easy to find out;
3. Blacklist: the worst websites.

I like the idea. But why don't you use a LongListSelector like in the App List when you have enough Apps installed. It becomes boring to scroll all the way down if you are looking for a certain entry.

Question concerning Stock ROM..

I recently went back to stock from Cloudy G3, and under voice actions under Google Now, I have the option for From Google Search app, From Any Screen, and From Lock Screen. With just run From Search App checked I use to be able to run a search from the home screen on the G3 ROM, as long as the Google search widget was there. Does it not work from the stock G2 ROM this way? The only way to get a Ok Google to work from the home screen now is if I have both From Google Search app checked, and From Any Screen checked.

Things are different now and it's for the better. Samsung has made it simpler by reducing UI clutter and UX confusion. This helps streamline everything so it works out of the box. When some app or file needs access to an App, it will only ask once. You choose which app and you will never get asked again.
If you want to reset/clear what you chose, go into Settings > Applications > Default Applications and clear the app you want.

[SOLVED] Keeps asking "Google needs to use device contacts" with moto voice

While driving it's nice to be able to use hands free to send a text but everytime I try to use it, ie "Ok hotword" send text to so and so I keep getting the "To improve....." screen.(see image) If I opt in it will last maybe a day and I'm right back at it. Any way to make this permanent?

MTA: Seems that a setting for device information must be enabled in order to keep from getting this screen all the time. Simply go into "Google settings->Search & Now->Accounts and Privacy->Google Activity Controls"... Such a headache... but fixed.
