Pre-installed apps install date? - Xperia Z5 Premium Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I noticed that apps that came originally preinstalled with my phone like Spotify show install date of 01/24/197. Anyone else notice that? I got the dual E6883 version.

[Q] "My apps" list in Market never shows all my downloaded apps

I rooted and flashed CM7 on my HTC Desire a few weeks ago, and I've noticed something a while after doing so. I can never get my Android Market app to show my downloaded apps properly. At times, it just reverts to a blank slate. My concerns are that I cannot see update notifications properly, as there my apps are missing my market app list.
A secondary concern is that when I buy an app, I'll have problems re-downloading them, and might be forced to pay for it again.
If you need more information, please tell me.
OMG, I am also facing such problem!!
Cannot see installed apps like I updated flash player using market but later it just dissapear under my apps, skyfire missing, file expert missing!
Quite a number of downloaded free apps from market are missing under my apps!!
Currently using market version 2.3.4 from supernova rom 1.0.2.6?
Any help would be appreciated!
I did a bit more research, and this may shed some light.

device suddenly incompatible with a bunch of apps

Hi guys,
Weird thing happened today, I was checking the Play store app for updates, there were about 10 of them.
I didn't update anything at the time.
About 10-20 minutes later I check again and I only see 3 updates available... when I search for those missing updates on the play store, the apps don't even come up. When I look on the play store on the PC, I see that all those apps (which are all already installed, from the play store) as being incompatible with my device... both free and paid apps.
I rebooted, cleared cache/davlik, but still the same..
do you know what went wrong, and what I can do?
Perhaps they're not compatible with 4.2.1 yet?

nah that's not it, I mean I was seeing an update for Beautiful widgets, which I have been using since 4.2 and when I check now there is no update, I can't find the app on the play store, and on PC it says it's incompatible... and eventhough it's installed on my phone, it doesn't show in the list of installed apps in the play store app. Yet I can still access the widgets and add more to my screen...
did you modify the dpi on your phone?

I am on Paranoid Android, I was on 720px / 220 dpi (for a very long time, and never had problems), the first thing I did was reset everything back to default. Still no go
BW is running fine on my GNex, running a custom build of MoDaCo's MCR - all stock values, of course!
well in the end there was an update to my ROM so just dirty flashed along with gapps and it seems back to normal.. weird what happened, but oh well.
Thanks for the help guys

whatsapp not showing up after installing

hi. when i download whatsapp from google play store or through website its wont show up after installing ...any help ?
from amazon store whastapp version is outdated.so its also not work
I'm stuck on this too. It said the whatsapp version is outdated and the app is disabled. The amazon appstore does not have an updated version either,
Same.... Stupid fire phone, I'm debating what phone I want to jump ship for.
But I did find that if you install the APK from the google play store, it prompts if you want to run the app after installing it. When you run it, it shows up in your recent apps on the horizontal bar of previously opened apps. You can lock it in place there, but it won't show up in your app drawer. Go figure though, did we really expect support for a dead phone?
I just installed from play store and it shows up OK. I'm using a third party launcher though. Are you all on stock - if so, why? Or on a different Rom?

I think the problem all of you are having is that you have a copy of WhatsApp in your Amazon cloud. If you delete the app from your Amazon cloud apps and re-install WhatsApp from Google Play, the app's icon should also be installed.

Preinstalled Apps

Hello guys,
I think about getting this phone. But first I've got some questions:
-Is there the Spotify app preinstalled? If yes, is it fully removeable? I want to use this spotifymod and it doesnt work with preinstalled Spotifyversion
- Is there much bloatware preinstalled? Can it only be deactivated or can it be fully uninstalled?
Thanks for your answers!
Greetings from Germany.
I got my phone direct from Vodafone as part of a deal they were offering me to stop me from changing provider. (I had no intention of changing provider at all but I wasn't telling them that...). I don't have Spotify on mine. Vodafone have added a few apps of their own but I doubt they would have removed it.
You can remove pre-installed apps anyway, if you don't want them. You need to be rooted though. Titanium Backup is a great app for uninstalling them if you are.
I can confirm that my XA1 (G3121) has Spotify preinstalled out of the box and ISN'T removable as it is a system app.

RN8 installed app not showing.

Good night, today I bought my dad a Redmi Note 8. I set it up for him and installed him WhatsApp, after that I updated the apps on Play Store and the Xiaomi apps as well, finally I proceeded install software update (MIUI 11), everything fine, apparently. Maybe an hour later my dad asks me if I installed Instagram, so I went to install it and the app didn't show in any of the screens, I checked on P Play Store and it was installed because if show me the button 'Open' instead of 'Install', I rebooted the phone yet the Instagram app was nowhere to be found lol it was pretty rare. I uninstalled the app, clear Play Store caché, redownload the app ... still nothing. So I searched on the web and I found an old thread for a RN4 having the same issue and someone suggest to install another launcher, so I installed POCO Launcher and there there is the app in the application drawer.
My dad however does not like this launcher and wants the original launcher (not that he knows, he just says it looks different, previous to this RN8 he had a Huawei Lite 9? Idk, both launcher are the same so I can guess why he doesn't like POCO). So I tried back MIUI Launcher and the app is still not showing, so I don't know what else to do lol, I told him to use the phone like that while I do some research and find a solution.
I think it is pretty rare because when I installed WhatsApp there it was, no need for other launcher, why is Instagram not showing? Not only Instagram, I tried installing Twitter and it is also not showing, however they are showing on POCO Launcher.
Any idea?

MIUI stock launcher keeps all apps on the home screen. Swipe left and right to see all apps.
If they still do not show, open app info of System Launcher and clear all data.

Sometimes two or more apps can be grouped into a folder in one of the homescreens.
