Apps not launching - AT&T LG Optimus G

When im on a app like Facebook or even browser I push to launch a video or a google play link it doesn't launch youtube or the play store it opens up in the browser only. Is there any way to fix this I click on the same link on my galaxy nexus and it will work perfect

Gallery app missing?

I don't know what happened. Everything was fine yesterday and today I just realized my gallery app was missing. Its not in my app drawer. I can still access it through the camera app and it shows up under manage applications but doesn't show up in my app drawer. Am I gonna have to resort to a factory reset?

Just download QuickPic from the market. Works better than the stock gallery.

Thanks dude. Works for me. Just curious though do you have any idea why that would have gone missing though? From the looks of it some other people had this problem as well

Have you tried re-installing your launcher? Check if you made if one of the hidden apps in launcher settings. If not then just go into Titanium Backup and Uninstall and Re-install it.
+1 for using a different photo viewer. Gallery viewer is slow and sometimes freezes on me, that's why I switched

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!!!!!!!!!

Every App Downloaded Goes to Home Screen

Every time I download an APP from the playstore it goes to my home screen. Is there away for apps not to download to the home screen.
Go to play store settings... voila!

Yep, open the Play store, go into settings and uncheck the option that says "add widgets to home screen"
This tripped me out the first time I d/l an app from the Play store but I quickly figured it out.
I didn't know this could be disabled, thanks!

Grooveshark HTML5 + Browser

Guys
When I use Grooveshark HTML5 website on stock browser + chrome broswer, while listening to songs I used to be able to escape the browser and it would still run in the background on my SGS3 but after I switched to the DNA the music stops playing. Does this happen to you any of you guys also? If so why? But surprisingly if I run it on Dolphin Browser it work perfectly. Is there any settings I need to change on chrome or stock browser. Let me know please.
Thanks
Anyone? Thanks

Did it work when you minimized the browser and went to to another app for example like text messaging or maps.

One of my app disappeared and I can't get it back

I cleared data, force stopped and turned off the native app "Samsung WatchTV Video" and I can't get to it anymore. I can see it in app info but I can't do anything with it. Everything is greyed out except force stop. It's not in my app drawer. If I search for it in Google now it doesn't recognize it.
Any suggestions? Thanks

I use Nova. Switched back to the native home screen, checked disabled app... Boom! There it is. Went back to Nova and it was in the app drawer.
Thanks guys
You're welcome
