maybe its just blocked. I mean disabled, try to enable on the app section under settings it should be there its on the same menu where you can disable notifications on each app.
check 'hidden application' in app drawer->option->hidden apps.

Can someone please help? My wifes GN2 gallery app has been deleted somehow. Her phone is stock and unrooted. From my understanding root is required to delete a system app, so I'm not sure how it happened. Does anyone have any ideas on how to recover the gallery, aside from factory reset? Maybe an apk? Thanks!
SOLVED
It's probably not deleted. Open your app draw, then click menu and select hide applications. Find gallery and uncheck it.

I've checked the app drawer, and it's not hidden. I have also looked in the application manager, it's missing from there as well.

Okay that's strange because you do need root to remove a system app. Silly question, have you scrolled to the bottom of app manager where the disabled apps are and made sure it wasn't accidently disabled?
Also, have your rebooted and seen I'd it just shows back up

Thank you guys for the replies. I have performed a reboot, however I have not scrolled to the bottom of the app manager to see if it was disabled. I only looked for it in the alphabetical list. I'll try that when she gets home with her phone.

So I updated my mother's Note 2 with 4.3. The phone is stock and everything, my problem is and made real angry is that I wanted to show off some of the new feature that it has. So went to group play app to do the video sharing, but when I see, there isn't any video sharing to my surprise!!! What happen? I saw all those demo showing off the video sharing option with a Note 3 and a Note 2!
I was testing that out (half heartedly) with my girls GN3 and my newly OTA'd GN2 and couldn't get them to detect with the scan... just off work so I'll try a few more things and see if I can get anywhere
Edit:
So far no dice... double checked device status and Knox counter... everything is good. I did turn on my phone afterwards and noticed several app updates (most were for newer 4.3 apps) but not for group play or Samsung link...
As of right now I wasn't able to get my girls GN3 and my GN2 to recognize each other through any of the apps when referring to videos... (we also have a Samsung TV but no dongle yet)... was able to get music to play on both devices though...
Some things that I've noticed:
1. Her group play app is about half the size of mine (even though she has the GN3 and I'm on the GN2)
2. Her Group Play app is actually an older version than mine
3. Her Group Play app has an option of video sharing where mine doesnt... I only have music/documents/etc... but no video tab to share
Really the whole thing makes no sense lol... but ill continue looking around for answers... pretty stumped at this point as, like I said, they sync for music, just not videos
Something tells me the solution could be as simple as a setting, as boring as waiting for the app to update, or as complex as requiring a dev to manipulate resolution errors/compatibility issues etc and creating a work around... really no idea at this point

That app before downloading, request an insane amount of permissions that are irrelevant (in my opinion) to what it should be doing... is there a webpage, youtube video or anything else online available to show me what the app does?

I ripped this off my friends Note 3 and video share instantly appeared. Not sure if it does anything else but it solved my problem.

Post some screen shots of the app running... I mean even if I install it, how does the app work? Will it allow me to connect to the note 3? Ultimately I dont know why the new update doesnt have these options built in? Dont really care for 3rd party apps either

This apk doesnt run as such and wont appear in your app drawer. It seems to act as more of a plugin for group play.
Seems silly to me to. I dont see why it cant be part of the app.
Did you bother to try this in the end?
If you dont trust my file you can always download a stock N3 firmware and rip the apk from that yourself

Hey, thanks. Tried it but It won't install... pretty sure that it's because of non root stock. The question remains if a rooted phone would this work?

My phone is rooted. You could try placing it in system/apps and changing permissions to rw-r-r

The app is visible in the app drawer. The rom maker took out this app which needs to go in system app and change permission. https://www.dropbox.com/s/5jjiqqiw4rhmkmk/SecVideoList.apk

The app you have added is not the one required to make group play video sharing work. That one is part of the stock video player app.

I know. You were saying it doesn't appear in the app drawer. So you need this for it to appear. I like having the app in the app drawer instead going to the gallery which takes more time.

As far as i can tell it does not effect the streaming to tv function as this worked for me both with and without the share video apk.
Hi, do you guys have any idea about this? I'm trying to make the bluetooth shortcut to work but it says this app is not installed. I didn't have this problem on 4.1.2 version.now I'm on 4.3 not rooted. Thank you.

Okay after playing around and trying to figure out how to do this I find out how. You need a smart TV that's connected to your home network. That can recognize media files from your phone. Like a media server. I have a Sony TV so I went to settings turned on near by devices and allowed my TV to look in my phone. Then go to wherever on your TV to find the media connection and browse from your TV.

Done. But no use. 2 more screenshots..
I have had the same annoying pop-up ads that looked like this "your Android memory is too low,please clean it up" or something like that,when I pressed "OK" button I just was redirected to "Du Booster" app. So Ad-blocking app is your friend,and for me the best is Adaway.:good:
I had these starting yesterday. I just had to restore my phone to a backup in the end. I got rid of lots of apps and the aware ones didn't find anything

adblock plus is what i use and it works perfectly.
Adblock Adaway or the xposed mod minminguard. As long as you are rooted they should all stop the adds and pop ups

If you are not rooted the only option is to uninstall the app which is giving you the pop up. I don't know of any pop up blocker that doesn't require root

Yes... I am trying to do the same .. but unable to find the app that is causing it .. most of my apps installed are from reviews from top Android forums and few games only.
I have uninstalled almost 10 apps in suspicion .. but still can't trace the culprit.
Hurray... Finally got hold of the culprit.
It was named com.scloud.... (Didn't remember the full name)
Initially thought it was system app but when going thru all suspicious names found that there is an option to uninstall which is not available for sys apps.
After I installing it alk these ads are gone.

Wait a few weeks and you'll see blinkfeed on the app store, HTC should be putting most sense features up as individual apps soon.
