YouTube icon disappeared from App drawer...

Strange thing has happened. YouTube has always been on the last page of my app drawer. Makes sense really as its in alphabetical order.
This morning i noticed that it has disappeared and been replaced with an app called Flash Player. The Flash Player app is simply a link to a web page regarding settings for local storage or peer something or other.
YouTube is still installed on the phone. When I selected a video through the browser it gave me the option to play it through YouTube, which worked. But I can't understand why the icon has gone from the app drawer and been replaced with one for Flash Player. I can't delete the Flash Player app and can't figure out how to get YouTube back on to the app drawer screen.
HELP!!!!!!!!!

Never heard of this problem before. But maybe uninstalling youtube app and then re installing it may help.
If you don't have Youtube App means this will happen.
Try as said above.
I did it's the same as before I think I'll try to flash another rom
Edit:flashing didn't make any difference

Browsers give me option to download instead of stream videos.

I can't stream videos on any browsers. All of them queue a download instead of playing the video. How can I stream the video instead of downloading? I'm on harmonia 3.17, s-on. Any help would be much appreciated, thank you.

Have you searched through the rom thread to see if it a known issue or if there was a solution found for it? If it hasn't been brought up my suggestion is pm the dev since your nine posts away from posting in development or post nine times in general section. I'm sorry I couldn't help you.
maybe its some download manager type app thats doing it
worth a shot
Can u name the browser u r using or any download manager u hve installed?

Download dolphin browser, then go into settings and change the user agent from Android to Desktop. Also make sure flash player is enabled.
Hope this helps!

[Q] Video wont play, audio will?

delete thread, issue solved
If I understand you correctly the app is opening up your browser and the video within the webpage won't play..try using Flashfox browser, it's in the playstore.
