solution is find it with titanium backup, uninstall it, and now you can download it from market
dissapear too google earth, google books, voice and some more and this don't apears on market before uninstalling it, but appears in titanium backup

I only tried with youtube, these other apps I dont will use and dont try with these. and I uninstalled it, these apps appears like youtube app in titanium backup
edit: I tried install google voice and google earth and no problem for me

I had a same problem on my Nexus S, what I did was, I navigated to /system/app/ folder on my phone with ES File Explorer, found the YouTube.apk and reinstalled it from there!
PS. Android Market and my phone showed the application as installed, and all options were greyed out (Open, Install, Uninstall)!

I fixed it with ep file explorer. Fix the youtube app
But still have problems with voice recorder thinkfree office and others that wont install and show up in my menu.

I had to do this several times because it kept getting messed up. Couldn't uninstall it normally but it didn't open.

But with titanium backup you need root access what i dont have. Then it isnot possible?

Try downloading an uninstaller app from the market.

What is that? Can you give me a name of one?

I cannot uninstall it with a free app. Google vpice or thinkfree are not even visible.
I can only see these apk files with ep file.explorer

My odd solution:
-Download GApps from Rom Manager...or wherever
-Flash GApps via recovery
-Reboot (Still no YouTube...)
-Go to Market
-Re-install Youtube from Market
When my YouTube "disappeared", it "appeared" in the Market as installed but the Open and Unistall buttons were greyed out. The icon in the drawer and the widget option were both gone.

I don't have that Think Free Office icon either in the apps drawer, but the TFO is installed in my phone. I was little bit confused about that thing, but now I see it's a common issue...?

I find it in xoom forum,thought it might help
If you have had a problem with the missing YouTube and/or Google Books applications, we have a workaround you can try.
Connect to WiFi network. (So far it looks like only WiFi Xooms have had this issue. Let me know if you have this on a Verizon Xoom.)
Go into Settings > Applications > Manage Applications
Go to the "All" tab and then scroll down and select "Google Partner Setup."
Clear Data.
Reboot your Xoom. (That is, turn it off and on.)
If this doesn't work, perform a factory reset (Settings > Privacy > Factory data reset) and try the sequence above again.
Please let me know how if this works for you.

How? Was it the suggestion to clear data from the Google Partner Setup or something else?

Google Play Auto Adding Widgets

Has anyone been having problems with Play auto adding widgets or apps to the home screen today? It just started earlier. I've already cleared cache, data, etc.. Very weird but even more annoying. OF COURSE the box is unchecked in settings.. lol

Yes, i have that too. I think it is a Google thing, tried everything but still adds icons to the home screens.

you guys disabled it in the settings of the google play app?

Yup, doesn`t help. Cleared Play app data, Google Play Services app data. Didn`t help. Guess it is a Google thing.

If you guys are using Nova Launcher, I would check under its options, too. A recent update for Nova for some unknown reason decides to add an option to override the Play Store auto-add widget/shortcut and is on by default. Nova settings > New Apps

Yes, i use Nova atm. Thanks a lot man, hadn`t noticed that option in Nova

Great I use Nova also. I'll look at that too. Thanks!
Edit: It worked! Thanks. That's an odd Nova thing. At least now we know. :thumbup:

Worked for me! Nova was 100% the culprit on this one.
Thats my first gripe with Nova actually. So, whatever. Easy enough fix

Man, I've been beating my head on this for a bit. I NEVER would have thought to look in the Nova settings.
Thanks a ton tysj!

FINALLY! Thanks for the help! What is sad is that I have looked through the Nova settings and I didn't find it. I think I only looked through settings>desktop.

[Q] app drawer icon problem

Need some help. I've installed a speedometer app (switch that lights up the console in my truck went bad) and am having trouble getting rid of the icons in the app drawer. So far I've tried to reinstall the app and uninstall it with no luck. It doesn't show up in titanium after uninstalling the app. I can't find an apk after uninstalling the app. Any help?

What app? Can you back into the play store and install it that way?

Sorry. Forgot details. Locked bootloader, rooted running gpe ROM thru safestrap. Digihud speedometer is the app spedo app
I could upgrade nova launcher or use another launcher to hide the problem. And I would go insane knowing I didn't fix it.

Interesting app, it looks cool but it really f'd up my device. I could uninstall it with tibu but it left something behind. Do you have a nandroid you can restore? Do a wipe before restoring the nandroid. That was the only way I got my device back to normal

Well ****.

Hi, developer here
Hi guys, ok this is something I've not seen whilst testing it on the few physical devices I have and in the emulator. I'm not sure what's happening here but obviously I'm keen to help if I can.
The app has two main parts, the full screen display and a windowed view that is shown in front of other apps, the latter runs as a service. Both parts have settings in the manifest to enable them to be launched from icons and two icons are created when the app is installed. Whenever I've uninstalled the app both icons have been removed from the app drawer. My devices are mostly but not all rooted.
Feedback has been mixed about whether two icons are needed; some people don't want the window icon and ask how it can be removed, others like it so they can call it with other apps like AutomateIt. Because the majority of feedback was against it I've removed it from the paid version of the app...but now there are requests to have it again. Hopefully my solution will be to be able to install a shortcut if required.
Sorry, back to your problem! I'm surprised TIBU doesn't remove it if I'm honest, although the Android uninstall should remove it all. There's nothing unusual or malicious in the code (i'm really not that clever!) to prevent it uninstalling.
If a link to a particular version of the .apk helps let me know and I'll post it if I can.
I'll do some more testing and see what I can find and post anything useful here.
Sorry for the hassle.

Would a catlog help in troubleshooting the issue. As JD said it is an interesting app. The HUD display works great (very clever idea there), but I want to be able to remove that icon. I like to keep my app drawer paired down to as few apps as possible and that one icon sticks out to me.

I totally understand. The logcat may well help me see what's up.

How can I have two icons of the same camera app but with different settings?

Without using titanium backup.
I switch settings on the camera app a lot, generally the resolutions. Is there a way to have two icons for a camera app so that each launch with their own set of settings?
I tried the app called App Cloner but it doesnt work with system apps. And I dont want to install a third party camera app.

I don't see how this is possible with your current setup. I think you have four choices.
1. Install a second camera app.
2. Use multiple Titanium Backup backups to switch the settings easily.
3. Open the camera app and change settings as you need to each time.
4. Uninstall the camera app, then install it as a user app and hopefully App Cloner might work.
I know two of those options you said you don't want to do but they're still available options.

Need solution for zui customisations

Hi.
I have recently installed zui 2.3.045
Need advice on setting up trebuchet as default launcher and eleven as default music player.
I have downloaded both apks of eleven as well as trebuchet.
They also get installed successfully. But, they don't run. When i click them to open, they blink and close.
Any solutions will be highly appreciated
P.S.
Also,I have installed viper4android and its working.
Any idea how to set it up as default equaliser app

I was able to make pixel launcher its default launcher in zui 2.5. So i guess it should work for other launchers too..
Go to settings and find applications( It should be under additional settings , not sure though).
Then clear defaults of zui launcher . below all apps there is a setting to enable any particular app as default. Choose the desired app.
Hope it helps.

Go to Settings>Advanced Settings>Applications scroll down to bottom, got to preferred apps set defaults as per your wish
