You should find it under the ALL tab.
Have you removed the ROOT? if not just use a root explorer to remove it?

[Q] Can you reinstall apps from google play?

Recently my Samsung Galaxy Mini went into a boot loop. To solve this, I had to factory reset the phone, deleting all my apps. When I log onto google play, and navigate to my previous apps, it says they are still installed, and won't let me reinstall them. Is there any way round this?
Thanks
how about the backup?did you always backup app?
if not,i think you can redownload using another website like appbrain...after that you can automatic update from google play..this is just my thought
Also you can enter to Play Store from your PC, and install all the apps that you need (clicking on the Install button, the app will be installed in your phone).
my android apps
go to Google play and my android apps on right hand side or hit this link https://play.google.com/apps
it will show you all the apps that u have installed on your phone, now click on app one by one and click on install button through web, in this way you can install the apps that u have loose
please press thank you button if u like this.
The thing is, when I go to "my apps", it says I already have them installed, when I don't. The install button is greyed out.

I had the same problem. The solution is simple however. I'm using Cyanogenmod for my rom. It turns out you have to download and install the google play apk.
As soon as I rebooted, I was asked for my Google account and once I entered the information, everything, including my apps, automatically downloaded and installed. Of course, it's important to note that I backed up my account to my Google account. I highly recommend this.
So, I think if you just find the gapp.apk for your rom, you'll be ok.
Hope that helps,

[Q] Unhide apps hidden with Hide It Pro

-.-
So....I just noticed that 'Hide It Pro" doesn't work on ICS, meaning it only hides the apps.....oh boy and does it hide them.....but you can't unhide/run them anymore.
Any resolution to this problem?!
How do I get those apps back, because I made one fatal mistake, and that was hiding my Super SU app and now if an apps needs root, it can't get it because the Super SU app is nowhere to be found....
I've tried :
- uninstalling hide it pro
- intalling launcher pro and look for the apps in the hidden option
EDIT: Unhide the apps without reflashing of course....
I have no problem with unhiding them, but maybe it doesn't work because you need root access and since you've hidden SU that feature is gone Did you try to delete the apps from Play Store and install them again?

SuperSU is on play store but it says "disabled".

And if you first delete the data of the app before uninstalling Hide It Pro..? (Just an idea, but maybe the apps will be deleted to then... On your own risk)
Otherwise I wouldn't know. Maybe email the developer.

I had to go into CWM and wipe data/factory reset and that brought back the root
I thought I had to re-flash....phew.

[Q] Google play on cheapskate tablet?

So I bought one of those cheap tablets. Of course it didn't come with Google play.
So I tried flashing the 20121011 package from goo.Im/gapps then installing the 4.6.17 apk which I downloaded from xda
I get as far as logging into my Google account then when the store begins to load I get a "Google play store has stopped" message.
I've cleared the data and cache for all Google play services and framework.
I know there isn't a great chance I'll get this working, but I figured I'd see if anyone had any more suggestions to try.
It's a proscan plt8801k running 4.1.1
Thanks
No need to flash a GApps package. The Play Store apk would be enough.
DOWNLOAD PLAY STORE VERSION 4.6.17 (OP)
I tried that first. But it just crashes right after it opens so I installed gapps to see if part of the Google framework was missing. Got any other tips?

If you have FCs right after the installation of the above apk go to Settings > App > All and clear app data of Google Play Store and Google Play Services then reboot and try again.
I appreciate you taking the time to help me.
I had tried resetting all apps and settings before, but this time I manually cleared the data on the two you just mentioned.
Same issue.
I wonder If there is some other dependency that is missing or out of date because the entire store loads (icons and all) and then about a half a second later it crashes.

No worries. This method doesn't work on some devices and I never had to face this issue but try this (it's free ):
Go to Settings > App > All > Hit on Google stuff and check if everything is running.
Go to Settings > App > Do you have a 'Disabled' menu on the right?
By the way on a 2012 MPMAN tablet the following apks were needed (information taken on a tech blog):
• GoogleServiceFramework.apk
• (Google)OneTimeInitializer.apk
• SetupWizard.apk
• com.android.vending-X.X.X-signed.apk
Do you have all these apks?
The instructions explain to directly reboot after installing the apk files. Do not try to open the Play Store before rebooting!
There is no disabled menu but I checked all the Google stuff and none of it was disabled.
I just did a factory reset and installed the play apk then rebooted
I'm not rooted yet so I can't see the apks themselves. But I may be missing those last two because I don't see then in settings-> apps. Can you recommend a date place to download them?

Unzip the GApps package and you can find them in /system/app.
Did u grab the right package? Is your Android version 4.1.x?
You need root to push these apks into the right directory.
I thought that would be accomplished when I flashed the zip as an update.
Okay so I'm rooted, I gave es rootexplorer root access. I extracted the zip and tried coying the apks to /system/app but I got a access denied error.
What is the proper way to accomplish this?

Yes you need to modify the permissions of ES File to R/W. From the side panel hit 'Root Explorer' > Mount R/W > Checl both / and /system as RW > OK.

it obviously won't uninstall the app, just the updates, and then you can reinstall them again. it's like resetting it

yes, i uninstall the app just the updates and all the aplication and install an older version, the newest version but nothing.
bump, help please.
phew, strange.
are you rooted? any modifications or is your phone in its original condition?
try to delete and reinstall google play services or at least clear cache.
if you dont mind: factory reset always helps
//edit: also, what are those apps running in background (the icons in task bar)
maybe one of them interferes with google play.
[just for experimental purpose: have you tried a different keyboard? ]
Is background data activated for the System Apps in the networked Apps menu?
On MM I had to enable the right: wright to SD-card for such bigger files. From the settings/apps menu. It was a separate option, so when I gave the trusted app tick, it was not enough.

Go back and see your video and pause where a Waring comes- it says download through WiFi only. Only two things can be there-
1. GO to phone manager > traffic manager >networked apps > system apps and search for download manager and google play store and see if both are selected for mobile data. If already selected then go to step two.
2. Deselect the WiFi option when appears during download then select continue. I hope nothing else would be required.
Do not forget to thank if it worked and you can also welcome to donate

Strange. You or something has changed settings. Doesn't happen on its own.
Check your default apps and that it is set correctly:
Settings>>>App Management>>>>Default App
Check Phone is set to "system default". If not go into the list and select.
Hope that works.
If not...looks like a factory reset or update via recovery
Had the same issue.
I fixed it by going into "Settings>>>App Management>>>>Default App" and then change the System Launcher back to the default one that comes with the phone. I was using Microsoft Launcher before. Then, find the Phone Manager app and run it.
This is absolutely stupid. No idea why you can't run the same app in a different launcher. Oh well.
hii
a common issue
Sometimes the phone manager App doesn't come pre-installed, install it from play store.
For me, I clicked phone manager and then a message came out: Error 101. What is that?

A quick search helps:
Solve Error Code 101 in Google Play Store
The error 101 occurs due to the memory issue, which can be ROM / SD-card storage / Cache memory. But this error mostly gets solved by deleting some unused apps or by freeing the SD card memory.
Solution 1: Free memory card space by deleting unused Apps or content. Also, free up the Phone internal storage. It should solve the problem.
Solution 2: Remove the Google Account and open the Play store again and log in.
Solution 3: Uninstall Play store Updates Go To Settings Select Manage Applications or APPS Manager Tap on ALL Scroll and Look for “Google Play Store” Clear Cache and Data Click on Force Stop Select Uninstall Updates Reboot you phone and try again
Solution 4: Clearing cache and Data for Google Apps Go to Settings Select to Application Manager or Apps Under All , look for Google Services Framework Clear Data Cache and Click Force Stop NOW do the Same With Google PLAY STORE, Google Play Services, Download Manager Reboot your Phone, it should be working fine now.
