Default [Q] Apps still continuing to delete themselves!

I've already posted a thread on this awhile ago, with no luck to finding a solution! Randomly my apps get uninstalled without me doing so. I don't relize its even fond till I to use the app and its not there. Has anyone ever heard of this happening and how to fix it. Or a setting that could be causing this issue. Been happening for awhile now.

Any help would be appreciated and thanked

I have never heard of this happening before.

Question, is it just recent apps you may have installed? Do apps you install go missing after a reboot?

Have you done anything... "interesting" to your phone? (rooting and recovery are interesting, just in case you need a metric)

The only times I have seen something like this is when apps automatically get installed on sd card. after a reboot, they weren't moved correctly so they "magically disappear". Check if they are on sd, card

You can also try going to recovery and fix permissions and then reboot

I've never heard of such an issue of applications automatically uninstalling themselves. So, you download an app from the Play Store, then reboot, and its gone? You should try a factory reset / returning back to stock, thats what I'd do.

I've had this happen to me too. I couldn't find the app icon and when I tried to reinstall it asked me if I would like to replace existing application. As someone said before it can be an app2sd issue.

I personally have never had that happen with my Blaze. Every app I've ever loaded on there stays.

I know this might be somewhat of a longshot but if you're saving your apps to your microSD card you might want to either check out the card to see if its corrupted. That might be the problem.

This has happened to me, too. Just yesterday I noticed my facebook app was nowhere to be found.

I am using the latest dknight rom with Go Launcher. Other than the Go Launcher, I have not tweaked anything else, nor have I moved any apps to the SD card.

This issue is mainly happening on app on SD or flash memory...a restart just bring back all apps to live
