Missing App Icon - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I was holding my phone and I could tell that it accidentally turned on and was doing things. When I looked down to turn it off I noticed that the app launcher icon at the very bottom of my homepage is missing. I have no clue how to get it back and can't figure out a way to access all my apps.
Does anyone know how to get the icon back?
Thanks.

[Q] Unknown Icon New S4

I have searched and searched, I cannot find an answer to this anywhere... I have an unknown icon in my status bar, but not on the right side, with the rest, its on the left side. I have included a screenshot of the icon, any help would be most appreciated!!!
It's most likely from an app you've installed.

Looks like the icon for My data manager. There is an option in the settings (or at least used to be) to disable it.

Is there any way to get viper mod or lmt launcher to stay out of notification bar

Every time I restart the phone they come back and I go to app info and they are unchecked. So I have to check them on then off again..

You can install xposed framework and the notify clean module to get rid of them. That's what I use along with a lot of other people.
So I'm not doing anything wrong just have to use a work around app. Thanks

For LMT, you can also long press on the notification in the notification panel and select app info - when the LMT info page pops up, uncheck notifications or if it is not checked, check it and then uncheck it and you will get a popup saying you won't get notifications - click ok and close. You do have to do this everytime you reboot your device tho.
download 'notificationsoff' from the play store. icon is a green square with some lines in it...just in case u have issues finding it. lets u turn off notifications for any apps u chose whether they r user apps or system.

Stock weather widget not showing weather

So when I first put that widget on my screen, it was all fine but then it stopped showing the actual weather and it looks like this:

Any idea how to fix it?

Enable location again as this and internet are the two things needed for the weather plug-in to work. If enabling location don`t fix the issue please restart your phone and please also add the weather widget to some home screen though.
My location was enabled but I disabled it and enabled it again, it's set on high accuracy right now. Didn't fix the problem. Restarting also didn't fix the problem. After adding the widget to the screen again, it still only shows the clock and the date

And you are sure this is the weather widget not the clock one ?
I am grabbing the weather widget shown on the first picture, putting it on the screen and then it actually looks like the one on the second picture

Lockscreen widgets are gone in favour of notifications in Lollipop. You can't have lockscreen widgets without a third party lockscreen app or going back to kitkat.
