Hi guys.I have this issue. I was about to install a widget on my home screen, and after I've installed one, I see it nowhere. I mean play store said it is successfully installed, but all I see is a uninstall button, and There's no sign of the new widget in the quick widget menu nor the drawer... ive cleaned the system bloatware once, and I was thinking maybe I've deleted something that has to do with it somehow.
Any chances html viewer system app is the one?
And just got a weird thought. I've installed a firewall today and I have the apps widget installed on my home system... how the..
Additional taught... maybe the dpi change to 540 is interrupted with the widgets? If it is, how to fix it?
Help?

I have tried deleting com.htcstreamplayer.apk from /system/app but the icon in question is still there. I searched on the internet and found a thread talking about the icon is part of htcmusic.apk, so I deleted that too and it is still there.
The persistence of such icons makes me want to free my app drawer of it more badly! So if you can show me how to do it, I am much obliged!
Hello !
I have "upped" the topic because I have the exact same question.
I have rooted my device and was able to delete HTCMusic.apk and a lot more, but I am unable to find which .apk file or which application is launched when the "Videos" icon is pressed.
I would like to froze the application related to that icon. I know it's possible because I've done that for the "Miror" icon (which is in fact a component of the Camera application) in order to make it disappear from the drawer.
Can you help us please ?
Thanks in advance. (Sorry for my English, I'm French).
The solution
Hi all,
I'm sorry to double-post but I've found a solution for those who are still interested (I have an HTC ChaCha, but I believe it also works for Desire HD).
You must download an app remover from the Google Play Store, which includes a feature called "Freeze", and which is able to disable application components.
For example I have paid for ROM ToolBox Pro (it includes the Advanced Freeze feature).
The component used by Video icon is in fact packed into the "Gallery" application : .TabPluginDevice.ActivityAllVideos, you can disable it safely.
After .TabPluginDevice.ActivityAllVideos is disabled, the Videos icon disappears from the drawer.
Can't yet post in the dev forums so I'm asking here.
Since flashing Juggernaught 4.1 I've lost my news and weather app. Does anyone know how this might have happened? Or have an apk or zip so I can add it back? Thanks
I still have it on my Juggernaut 4.1 phone, if you're talking about the News and Weather Widget. I just touch the screen, select widgets and it's there.
If you're sure it's not on your phone, then the ROM team include an app called Bloater which allows you to reinstall any of the bloatware apps that have been removed. Run it, select T-Mobile SGS2, then select Samsung Apps, and scroll down to the [Widget]News item. If it shows a button that says Install, then click it and install it. If not, then it's already installed.
Good Luck..
Thanks, but that's not the one that's missing for me.
I'm talking about the one that the icon looks like a newspaper. When you launch it gives you the weather with an hourly slider, and when you scroll to the right you get news. Any thoughts?
both of you are talking about the same App
if you lost it or deleted it by accident, you can always pull it from a stock ROM
just download any of the STOCK rom from Dev section, and copy and paste it from there
They are in fact different. The news widget in bloater is the AP news widget. The app is like I described previously. Using bloater to add back the widget does not reinstall the app. I haven't deleted anything, so I'm not sure why it disappeared when I flashed jugg 4.1, but I will try to add it from stock when I get home later.
Hi guys,
I just got my g3 and something really strange happened.
I had the google folder on my homescreen and then deleted it, when i go into my apps i can't see the apps that were in that google folder.
I have to goto the playstore and open gmail from there. Is there any way i can get my icons back from the folder i deleted?
Just before anyone mentions, my apps aren't hidden. They're just gone
Those are just doors to your apps, you deleted the doors.
Just long press on your screen and a dialog will Pop up, go to apps and browse to the one you want, touch it and it should go to your screen.
Yup i know about that also...
I like to have a clean desktop...therefore i use the apps key all the time and access my apps from there.
Is there another way of getting my icons back to where all my other apps are?

Long press on any of them and the one you press will appear on the desktop page your on.. Your then free to long press and move, delete, edit the name etc.... At least with Nova launcher you can.
Hey, i got a Problem with the recent apps screen. On top is a box with "widget could not be loaded " See attachment. How can i remove that?
Has nobody a idea?
As per topic. I accidentally or more out of curiosity removed default Weather app. This resulted in lost time/weather widget, but what's words, the weather also has disappeared from the notification drawer ;/
Does anybody know how to reinstall this app? Or which was actually it was? Or where to find and how to install default Huawei apps in general?
P.S. Sorry for my ignorance, but it's my first time with Huawei and I couldn't find any information about it in the Internet.
