I'm on a Droid Bionic and my stock browser just poofed. Everything was working fine, including the browser, until I rebooted my phone. The reboot went normal, but when I tapped the browser app icon on my home screen, it says the app isn't installed. It also no longer shows up in my app drawer. I did find it listed in the manage app settings, so tried clearing the cache and another reboot with no luck. So then I tried to uninstall the updates and got a message asking if I wanted to revert to the factory stock app. I said yes, and then it disappeared from the manage apps settings too. Another reboot and still nothing but the non-functioning icon on my home screen.
I haven't updated anything or downloaded anything recently except a couple known apps from the Play store, and wasn't visiting any suspicious websites, so I'm not thinking it's malware or anything like that. Any ideas? I'm hoping it's a simple fix or can find the apk for it online somewhere, but not going to be near my computer for a while.
And before anyone suggests trying another browser, I've tried several in the past and I prefer the stock one over anything else. That would be a last ditch plan for me right now.
