so i made a moron move and uninstalled the Gallery app with Titanium Backup. I hate using gallery and normally i just hide it in the app drawer, but since that isn't an option any more on this phone (wtf samsung?) I got rid of it. Well now i can't open pictures from the camera app. And i would like to be able to do that. Anybody know how i can reinstall this app and get it back to normal?
thanks
Try this see of it works 4 ya

Thanks but unfortunately that didn't work. It says it wants to update a built in app and then stops and says the app is not installed.
Try this it should install with titanium backup

i think we are getting close. i installed that using TB and it said it installed. Gallery is not listed in the app drawer. However when in the camera app, if i press the picture thumbnail to launch gallery it says that the app is disabled. Before it said that it wasn't installed and it dumped me out of the camera app. it would be nice if i could just get this from samsung app store.
Restart device and check in setting and applications make sure not disabled
Yeah its not listed under disabled apps. I'm not sure what I'm missing. Any ideas? Thanks for your help so far!
Clear data and clear cache in phone settings and restart see if that helps
That didn't help. What do you think about flashing the stock rooted rom?
Yes that will be a sure way to get it back
Same thing happened to me. Nothing would restore it. Not even manually changing the priv-app/SecGallery2015 permissions etc

I did some googling but nothing came up. Sometimes I get this kind of message in my notification bar (see attachment). It has the same icon as Updating/downloading. But I'm pretty sure that's not the case. If I tap on that message, it will open the default browser and take me to a site.
I have tried Airpush detector & Zone anti-virus but nothing came up. Does anybody have any idea how this thing got on my phone? Also is there a way to prevent this from happening?
Thanks bunch!!! =)
What ROM are you using?
Thanks for the quick reply. FYI I'm using stock at the moment. =)
So it looks like something is being downloaded from your browser every time you open it, check Chrome (if installed), and the stock browser, and close all of the tabs you have open, then clear your history and cache files, and see if that will help.
Did you check the running apps list when that comes up?

It might not have anything to do with the browser. It just directs him through the browser. It is probably an app.
Thanks for the advise! Here is the list of apps running at the time:
Settings
WhatsApp
Dropbox
Birzzle
ScoreMobile
GO SMS Pro
Facebook
Widgetsoid
Zedge
Google Services
Media
Maps
Android keyboard
Post the services that are running too.

Birzzle looks suspicious. It's just a game but why does it need a permission to start at boot? Try uninstalling that and see if your problem persists.

Well, don't only check the apps that are running, always check cached processes.
Force stop every app you don't need at the moment and then check if the problem persists, if yes, reboot the phone, if it still downloads this, check your running apps, and see if there is an app, that was there, when you closed the other processes, open the browser, and clear cache of websites, cookies etc., if neccessary, re-flash stock ROM, but the last option is worst-case...
I use Titanium Backup all the time. But one thing I have not yet figured out is this.
I flash a new ROM.
Go to Play Store and download Titanium Backup & License.
I restore all my apps (including Titanium).
But none of the settings I've set up for Titanium Backup are restored?
I have to go through the menu and re-do all my preferences, etc. for TB.
What am I doing wrong?
Its the first option under the preferences menu.

confirmed this does nothing, hit the option, played around on thunderbird opening and closing, even killing, no such backup file is ever created. I wipe and load up a new titanium app, use the setting, but nothing happens.
so this def does not work, does anyone know of a way that does work, maybe this time with instructions on where to find this ghost settings file?
thanks!

Works for me. I haven't had to set preferences in TB for a while.

Yeah it's been working great for me also.
Are you using the free or paid version of TB? I have the paid version and maybe that is a requirement.
Hello Everyone
I have installed a custom ROM that is really close to stock Touchwiz.
However it includes some kind of "AT&T address book" app that pops up whenever I go to phone and press contacts, for example. This causes my phone to lag too as it opens this useless app, as I am not even with AT&T. I was wondering about how to remove it, or perhaps a contacts apk that I can replace it with that does not have this built in?
Thank you
Use root explorer and nav to system/app. Mount r/w and delete the app. Reboot.

Mind writing the name of the app? Tried doing this on a couple of roms, but could not find it...
Can't you just freeze/uninstall it with titanium backup?

I would simply uninstall it with Titanium Backup, however I think the app is somehow fused into the contacts application. In Titanium Backup I could not locate any process or application related to it. Unless I am missing something or it goes under a different name?

They say to freeze the Synchronize v1 process using Titanium Backup, but is it safe to delete it? Considering it will never be used, ever.

That's up to u. If you freeze it and have no issues I guess you could. I usually freeze most apps I dont use just in case. Unless its a well known app and I know what it is. Flashing the ROM again would install it if u ever wanted it.

Kyocera AAB (AT&T Address Book) Disable
Go to the Apps screen, run Settings, select Apps.
Swipe Left to see RUNNING apps!
Select AAB then Stop it, Swipe Left again to see ALL apps and select AAB and Disable it.
This will stop the auto sync when you open contacts on the Kyocera C6745.
Hey Guys,
so I got my new HTC One M8 (Vodafone GER).
But I have a problem. I updated it to 4.2.2 / Sense 6.0 but there is no gallery App anymore.
The only picture viewer that I have on the phone is "Google Photo" and it does not show Camera Pictures that I took.
Even if I'm in my camera app and took a photo and try to "click" in the lower right corner, to open gallery app, it doesn't appear.
Nothing happens.
So even searching for it in my app launcher, there is no Gallery (or even "Alben" or "Gallerie").
The only thing I found about this app is going to settings -> apps --> Gallery / "Alben" (Germany u know
I even deleted the app data and the cache. But there is no app anymore.
And yes, camera settings are set to save pictures on phone memory.
If anyone have a idea, that would be great. I tried another gallery app, but nothing happened. I could see whatsapp pictures and downloaded pictures but no camera pics.
Please help
Tanks

Stock device, and updated by OTA?
If so, backup your personal data and try a factory reset. It could be some pre-existing apps or settings is not compatible with the OTA update.
HTC Gallery is also available in Play Store as a standalone app. Try to download it from there. Not sure if 4.4.3 is needed though

Maaaaan!
Things can be so easy
Thanks a lot!
This is the solution
Last week I updated my OP9 Pro to the latest version c61. Everything works fine, but the Photos App is basically useless.
What I mean by this is when I go into the Photos App everything is "blank". When I go into file explorer and go into the DCIM of pictures folders I have I can view the thumbnail and even open up any image and view it, but if I try directly from the Photo's app it's just showing like a blank transparent black box.
I have a 2 part question.
1. Has anyone experienced this before, and if so, how did you fix it? I really don't want to wipe my entire phone because everything else works fine.
By the way I tried clearing cache storage for the app under app info and tried disabling, rebooting my phone and reenabling and no luck.
2. What is a good Photo's/Gallery replacement app to the stock one?
A few features that I would like if possible:
No ads
minimal/simple functionality (I don't really care about extensive photo editing. Really just cropping and flipping photos if necessary)
If you can hide certain gals that a plus, but not necessary
A lot of the replacement gallery/photo apps I have seen have a lot of ads and I don't want to deal with that.
Thanks in advance!
Hi, whilst I've never experienced the issue you have in question 1, have you tried to add an album? When you take a photo on your phone camera does that appear? ( Both in the camera and your gallery) as for an alternative I personally use Google photos as it just works.
Thanks for your response and sorry for the delayed response. It's a really odd glitch.
If I take a picture and open it at that moment it will display fine. Also if I go into a file manager and open it I can view it fine. But if I go into my photos app it's blank. I ended up downloading a couple other photo apps and they open up all my media fine without any issues. It's a really bazaar glitch but seems to only be with the oneplus photo app with the newest c61 update.
I'm not sure if I can remove the stock photo app from my phone because I believe it's a system app and the only option I have is to disable it, but I was thinking of trying to remove it from my phone and reinstalling it from scratch.

did you already clear cache and storage of the app?
maybe you denied a required access right by accident?

Yes I did that and also checked to make sure all proper permissions were granted.

strange.
I mostly use the google photos app. not sure if this is an option for you, but it should check all the marks from the initial post.
Thanks, I should look at it. I'm not sure if google photos backsup your stuff by default, or you can just turn off that feature. I feel like with that feature enabled I would quickly run out of the limited space google gives you as it is so you would be forced to upgrade to get more space.

I think it is turned off by default or at least asks you.
but you can definetly turn the backup off manually.
it gives you 15gb incl. shared between google drive, gmail and photos I think.
for me this is still enough, but I also backup at my home cloud.
