    Default Installed App Icons Not Showing Up

    I reset my phone to clean it off while i sent it for repairs. When I did that all my third party apps icons disappeared and will not show up again if i uninstall and reinstall it. On the other hand apps that were not on my phone will show up.

    Anyone have any advice on how I fix this?

    a screenshot and/or the name of the apps would help. Give us some more info and we'll try to help.

    Did you have categories installed or any apps hidden with SBSettings?
    If you're requesting icons PLEASE include the original and the correct spelling. It makes our job 10X easier. Thank you.

    Default missing app icons after 3.0 update

    ok so i had jailbroken my iphone and i wanted to get the 3.0 upgrade. so i restored it and then upgraded. that all went fine but the apps i had hidden (or in categories) do not show up anymore. i tried to ssh in but that apparently is off. also the settings app was in one of the folder so i can not get to that anymore either. is there a way to get the icons back? should i re-jailbreak? any other ideas?

    settings/general/restrictions enable then disable/reboot. Has worked for most people.

    Are your location services turned on? if not when you open camera it will ask you if you want to turn it on click yes the your settings app will open go down to restrictions enable them and then disable them,and you should be good to go.or you can try to reinstall the categories app

    unfortunately the camera was in a folder too... i assume i would have to rejailbreak to reinstall categories.
