Help HELP! I can't find my built in apps.

Hi, I rooted my HTC One X plus a month ago and am now going to sell it. I had disable some built in apps, like messages and calendar etc. Yesterday I unrooted my phone with superSU and forgot to enable myapps before I did so. After a factory reset I can't find those apps. Is there any eay to restore them? Or factory reset the phone with a PC to get all built in apps back?

You can't see them when you go to Settings - Apps - All?

How did you disable them? With root or via the apps menu I mentioned above?

I disabled them with root. And no. I can't see them under Settings - Apps - All.

You'll need to root it to fix that.

So just root my phone again. Download the same app that I used to disable the apps. And enable them?

Yep.

Most apps that do that just rename the end of file so it doesn't look like an app to the system.

If backtracking your steps doesn't work out (although it very likely will) you can likely fix it with a file manager app - system apps are in the /system/app folder.

You're the man!
