[Q] Google Voice app icon missing, please help! - General Questions and Answers

Dear all,
I'm new here, I just upgraded my nexus s to ICS 4.0.3, t-mobile ROM. After experiencing battery problem a few days, I decided to do a factory reset. But after the reset, the Google voice icon is missing and I can't launch it at all. I looked at the app manager, and it is there. So I did clearing data for Google partner setup app and restarted the phone, but it still doesn't show up.
Your help is greatly appreciated

Did you try just downloading it off the market?
Please hit the thank you button if i helped!

Yes I tried. The market app doesn't allow me to install or uninstall it because it's a native app.
Thank you.

Thanks for your reply.
I never rooted my phone before, but will do that after the warrenty expires on April this year.
I actually tried to do the factury reset at least 10 times, so as flashing the official ROM, combining with clearing data for Google partner setup app. But still no luck.

Rooting is an awesome thing to do. I have rooted 4 devices or 5 if you include HP TouchPad.
Droid Incredible
Evo
Droid 3
Motorola Xoom
It is awesome. Lots of great things to do after rooting.

I did some searching, and found that after the update a lot of people are having problems. Sounds like market apps are causing problems too. I would unistall everything. Then do a factory reset. But from what i read, it is a problem with the update not your phone. They will probably be coming out with an update soon to fix the problems.

I have the same issue.

I have same issue, I had Google Voice before updated to JB. It seems Google restrict some system app outside US. Google Play Movies & TV, Google Play Magazines, Google Play Books also be freezed. I've unlock them using Titanium Backup defreeze feature. But this not work on Google Voice, since Google Voice isn't freezed. Still don't know why.

I am facing same issue... JB not showing Google Voice :-s

Market dead!?

Hi.
Major issues with Market. Nothing downloading. Just the bar and starting download message.
Tried force stop, cache cleaning, reboots. No joy.
Ideas?
After new FB and Twitter apps.

Same problem
Same problem with galaxy s, instaling app for 3 days now . can't stopit.
i've had this issue quite a bit on my incredible. usually cures itself by switching from wifi to 3g or the other way around. whichever you're on right now, try the other one.
Done that Mike. No change.

Go to applications market and uninstall updates.
Works fine here....
No updates to uninstall for the Market. Came as is.
I switched from Dinc to Droid X recently and encountered this problem pretty much out of the box. I believe I ended up clearing cache or data from the Gmail application and then Market downloads started to work correctly.
I just went to update an app that i have and Market Force Closed.
still downloaded ok though
I have a funny feeling this was an all around Android Market issue for many people... I had it too but now it seems to have cleared up...
You could try Titanium backup and the clear data option after tapping the market app.
It worked for me
my fix for this exact same problem (as described in the OP's first post) was to factory reset my phone (galaxy s) and log in using the @googlemail.com extension to my google email address instead of the usual @gmail.com
if that makes sense.. search google for a few other threads floating around with people who solved their market download "stalling" with this fix..
might be worth a try for you anyway.

Apps On Device Not Showing in Market

Even after using the fix market links option in titanium backup (which finds none missing) the market application still doesn't recognize over 100 Apps on my device. Any recommendations? Running Th3ory of ginger rom 3.51. Hard to know what updates are available if the apps installed aren't recognized by the market.

Try going to settings and apps and clearing market data and cache.. it's a stretch but it might work

Thank you for the response. Attempted to do this, however clear data and clear cache are both grayed out. Apparently this isn't even an option with the market app.
Any other ideas?
Anybody? I can't believe I'm the only one with this problem!
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
I had this problem earlier. When I rebooted the phone they weren't grayed out anymore. After clearing the data and cache my apps showed up
i have this problem too. i will give the above a try and give feedback.
Well, I don't know why, but the only thing that I found that fixes this aside from a reflash is to use the mybackup pro application's fix market links, reboot twice, and all fixed. So, if anybody else has this problem, give this a shot and tell me if it worked for you too. Kinda pissed that titanium backup couldn't fix it but mybackup pro could. I paid for TiBu

[Q] 2.3.4. Factory Reset - Google Apps lost updates

Hey guys,
Having recently restored the factory settings of my 2.3.4 stock I lost updates to some google apps (for example, I'm now looking at the old Google Music app).
Weird thing is that I had new updates notification but when I enter the market there's nothing to be updated on the list of my installed apps.
1 day has gone by and still no updates...
Am I missing some magic trick here ?
If you go to the Market to the corresponding apps, what does it say?
Does it claim that they are updated and give you an Open/Uninstall option or does it give you an Install option ?
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium
what a n00b I am lol! yep when i get into the corresponding app I have the Update button to click so I guess that will sort it out! Will try at home when I'm in WiFi! Hopefully that's all there is to it
Good to hear, then it's probably just that.

yep I managed to update them from their own application profile on the market! Still can't find Google Music but it's not a biggie, didn't like it all that much anyway...

It is because Google apps send update notifications in batches. You can always update by going to the app page directly before you receive the notification.

[Q] Purchased apps now gone after upgrade to cm9

I just flashed my ROM to cm9 from cm7 and installed the google apps package.
When I log in open Android Play (same account), and go my My Apps, all my previously downloaded apps and purchases are there still there, but none of them say 'PURCHASED'. They now list the purchase price of the app. Essentially, it's not recognizing I purchased any of my apps.
Can anyone tell me why this is happening?
EDIT: If I go on my computer and visit https://play.google.com/store, My purchased library still exists and I am able to install it via send to phone.
So really, it's a matter of inconvenience.
I read an Engadget article saying this is happening to a ton of people and Google is aware and working to rectify it.

Try going to manage apps and deleting app data for play store. That has worked for me in the past.

Yes Google is aware of this and best thing to do log out your gmail account clear data then reopen/sign back in. But if that doesn't help you'll have wait till Google updates

It seems to have fixed itself. Maybe there was just some server delay recognizing my phone.

Trouble opening Maps app from browser

I have a unique issue after upgrading to ICS on my HTC sensation. Whenever I search a address on my browser and click on the address for directions, it opens up the google maps on my browser rather than the "Maps" app on my phone.
This is really annoying as I want to use the navigation tool through my google maps app. It used to be okay before ICS.
Any help or ideas will be really appreciated.
Try clearing the default settings.

I have already tried it but didn't help. I have checked the settings on my default HTC browser and maps both.
whats that an offical upgrade or a root update on here, if it is official try a system reset, if it is from a rom on here, email the author who created it and they maybe able to help, when i had problem either on a rooted and unrooted phone, the system factory restore always solved the problem, just remember to backup all your settings for your app before you do it, as once you do that there is not way back, until someone going to tell me other wise i hope i could help
