    I downloaded a few of the free apps from BBWorld yesterday and an extra icon appeared. It had no name, and it did nothing when tapped... Have any of you seen this before (the one to the left of the ebay app)?

    Has anyone seen this icon?-img_20141218_012657.png

    Looks to me like one of those Google Services dependencies apps I installed a long while ago to get some Android games to work... honestly not sure..

    But if you look it up in App Manager in Settings you should be able to find the icon and match a name to it?

    That's what I thought too... Except I don't have any of those installed anymore (google services, Google id, etc.). Also, it didn't show up in device manager under storage, memory or battery... Just weird. Thanks for trying to help though

    Perhaps a reset could remove the icon?

    I'm not worried about removing it... That's the easy part. The difficult part is trying to figure out what the heck it is

    Restart the phone and the icon will display correctly.

    I'm almost sure that's the "eBay" icon. I'd bet on it.


    PS: sorry for this comment, just ignore it, I also think it's a weird icon that grey-ish one. Let us know if you find out

    Why not just press and hold the icon and tap delete.

    Hey Pat, haven't seen you around here in a while... To answer your question, deletion was never the issue... My question was, "what is it?". Thanks though

    Well, Slick, I guess I figured if you deleted it and something like one of the apps you installed stopped working, there's your answer. Kind of like step one of a troubleshooting process.

    If an app is packaged without an icon and installed, it'll show that icon. I think it's like a default icon. The one I seen still had a name tho

    Yes, it's the default application icon. Usually shows up when something with the installation process went wrong and the OS can't find app icon file.
