I can't pinpoint it but either flashing the only kernel or one of the roms has changed the behavior of what is shown in recents. I don't see all recent apps in the recents. Tapatalk, ebay, root Explorer, Google+, just don't show in recents. Is any one experiencing this?

First off I want to say that feature that shows similar threads when you start a thread is awesome.
With that said, I didn't find one on that...which is amazing as I am sure there are threads on just about everything here.....probably more than one.
Is there an app that can hide apps in any launcher? I know in several if not most launchers you have the ability but not all launchers....for instance stock....so....is there an app that can hide apps in any launcher?

Lots of apps want to populate your "Share via..." menu and from the reading I've done, Android provides NO way to edit the built-in menu. I did try a 3rd-party app that you could add/remove, shuffle entries, etc but some of the stock Samsung apps use their own share menu (mainly, Gallery) and I didn't like the inconsistency.
Of course, one way to remove items from the menu is to remove the app itself ! That leads me to my question.....
Why are apps that are NOT installed showing up in my "Share via..." menu ?? I have Picassa and Backup+ Media in the list but the apps are not installed. I suspect there's some non-obvious app-helper that's putting these here that I missed when de-bloating.

It has to do with it being coded into the package installer. There should be a mediauploader.apk that registered Picasa to be available for uploading. If you delete or freeze it, it might go away. I'm not exactly sure what would happen, but I know that's where it's located.

mediauploader.apk ? It is only for Picassa ?
Edit: Moved it and that took care of Picassa. Now to find the Backup+ helper app...

You're on your own on that one, I have no idea where that is.

Hi, I'm new in this forum and also I'm a new android user. I got this phone yesterday and it came with the 4.1.2 update, it is working fine and all, but today something strange happened, my phone freezes up while I was watching a video, it rebooted itself and then, the camera app was gone, and the gallery app also seems to have disappeared, although they both appear on the settings/apps menu. I would like to know what can I do to solve this, please as I don't understand this system well.

Are you using a custom launcher? Most custom launches have the ability to hide apps in the app drawer. Check in the launcher settings for an unhide option.

Go to the app menu where you see the apps. Touch and hold your finger on the app for a second or 2 that you want back on one of your home pages. The home pages should show up and simply drag the app where ever you want it. Move your apps around like this and you can change the apps on the bar on the bottom of the screen the same way.

Thank you for the suggestion but it didn't work out. Unfortunately, I didn't had any other choice but to factory reset my device and now I have the camera back, but thank you for the fast answer!

In my HTC one I was able to hide the unwanted apps that I couldn't delete from the phone, couldn't seem to find the same option in the nexus. If hiding isn't an option perhaps folders? Any suggestions would help, thanks.

Not with the stock launcher.
Find the app you want to hide in settings-apps slide right to all tap on the app and on the info page there should be a disable button. This will remove the icon from the app drawer.

Hi, had my watch a while now it's great, but as usual I'm trying to increase the battery life and one of my pet peeves is having to go to the menu, scroll to the right, then click recent apps and close apps.
Is there a widget available that I can just click and it closes all open items as I cannot seem to find anything on the app store?
Thanks in advance
Mark
No widget that I am aware of.
I have the double press home button set to recent apps. That is still pretty quick and you can close all apps from there
