Hide ERROR on android KitKat applications problem

Question

 

Well you see, I upgraded to KitKat (AUT) via OTA in principle all good, no problems in sight, everything worked fine, however it is not until now that I just noticed a little detail ... 

 

Previously had version 4.3, and had hidden many applications, such as "Contacts", "Messages", "Chaton", "knox", etc, do not remember them all, but they were few. Some even think that only was used because the little hidden, but with the option of reuse. 

Now with the KitKat version, the option to hide applications, has disappeared, and with it, ALL APPLICATIONS I had hidden, and denied them discoverable, since that option no longer exists. The only thing I found was applications "deactivated" which assumes not my hidden applications are ... 

 

Any advice? think they should make a reset wipes? to solve it? data is not wanna miss

Answer 1

I have not yet updated and I can not try, but look to see if you find the launcher in the list of applications and can just delete the data and apps reappear;) 

 

EDIT: I tried to hide apps in 4.3, then deleted data Launcher (Home TouchWiz) ​​and I have reappeared which I have hidden. Kitkat probably try to work. But remember that the launcher so you lose any customization of this restarts.

Answer 2

Hiding applications is only a particular function of launcher, but not the system. As for alternative lauchers these applications continue to appear ordinary. 

 

I recommend that you go to Settings> More> Applications Manager> TouchWiz Home> Clear Data. Done. Applications appear again. :)
