Recover samsung icons
I have disappeared the contact and call icons of my samsung galaxy s in the initial screen. To recover them you have to click on applications, then with the right button to edit and with the option edit enabled you can download icons to the bar below.
Also if you have a higher version of samsung smartphone, from the upper right side of the screen, you can click on show hidden applications and this will show the icons of those apps that are hidden or have disappeared, such as icon of messages, contacts, ... we press it with the finger on the icon and drag to where we like to have it. This last form was commented to us by a reader of the blog in the comments area and we think it is good to rescue it because it can help you recover your icons of lost applications.
Another possible solution to the loss of icons, is the one posed by the company Samsung aware of this problem for the case of the Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S Edge mobile is as follows:
First access the phone, the main menu and access the Samsung application store, Galaxy Apps.
Search and download the Quickpanel Restore application (this is a specific application created by the company itself to solve this problem of disappearing icons and is responsible for restoring the icons).
When executing the application, it presents a single button where Restore is indicated and when clicking on the button, the icons will be restored to their original state. Once this process is done, you can uninstall the application because it has fulfilled its purpose.
