Missing pinned apps on every reboot - X2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My nokia x2 behaves strangely, every apps which I pinned on the homescreen, will dissappear on next reboot, so I had to pin them all over again after every system reboot
What's wrong ?

same here

I found this happens most with apps on ext SD. If you keep them in phone memory they disappear less often, but you run out of memory. Very annoying bug in Nokia SW.

Microsoft mobile is either very noob or very mean

Launcher Pro not responding at boot

Lately I've LP has been freezing on me in a few moments after boot, basically after media scanning is done my UI is frozen and I need to bring up task manager to close out LP and exit out of task manager and it runs fine again, anyone know whats causing this?
it happens i think. i remember just installing chompsms and it's been happening since. switched to handcent and the problem's not there anymore.
maybe some application is causing it on your end?
I have the same problem! No matter what I do, Launcher Pro freezes after booting up, I have to close & re-open!
I had the same problem no matter what setup I used on my phone, even did it straight after a clean factory reset. Gave up with it in the end and am using Zeam Launcher now, very quick and responsive although I do miss the LP widgets
Found a fix, its caused by the .andriod secure folder on the EXTERNAL SD.. delete all the contents from there and mark the folder as READ ONLY and reinstall your apps that were there w/o the EXTERNAL SD card to guarantee they dont come back.
100% fixed on my end!

Ain't that the folder used by apps 2 sd? I would rather put up with fc in lp then screw with app 2 sd.

I dont even use app 2 sd in the first place.
I still have thouse hangs at bootup, sometimes goes fine, sometimes it is needed to be closed. I had this folder on my external sd, the folder is empty. Read and Write flags are off
Any other suggestion?
I have same problem... +1
it looks like its an actual error with the app itself, i have had this problem lots of times, i did a full wipe and only installed launcher pro, nothing else, the only 1 app i had on the phone was launcher pro and it still froze.
i just went to ADW launcher, i like it alot and you can resize widgets and stuff, very customisable..
2nd favourite is zeam, would be my number one but i couldnt figure out how to save the settings... theres a wide range of other launchers why not try something else ??
my LP does that as well on my vibrant. it really isn't that big of a deal, unless you repeatedly reboot your phone...
just wait a little while after your phone boots and just let everything load up
Yes, we can try another launcher, but launcherpro is best for me, because I want grid 5x6 icons. Go launcher is great as well, but there is max 5x5 :/

[Q] JPY is almost perfect but..

Has anyone noticed this bug with JPY?:
When you first boot and open Gallery it is super fast with all the thumbnails preloaded. After a couple of hours when you open it again it says "Loading images" and re caches the thumbnails again taking some time. This is especially evident in folders with a lot of images. It would be ok for an hour and then bam! Loading images slowly when i open it again.
Clicking on a folder opens it with the first four pics showing and then scrolling you have to wait a few seconds for the thumbnails to appear whereas when it initially booted all the thumbnails were already there. Its like it deletes the thumbnails after a while and has to generate them again which takes some time especially if you have a lot of folders and pics.
Is this normal, I don't remember this in my old firmware? Its the only thing that is bugging me. Maybe they force close Gallery after a certain time avoid the sensor draining bug that was there with the previous firmware?
Can you please check a see if yours is the same so i dont have to do a factory reset
you can download SGS tools from the markup and upgrade your gallary app.. that's what i did and i don't have any problems with the gallery anymore..
goodluck
The gallery app in SGS tool is not compatible with JPY because of the new feature of selecting wall paper for lock screen. I gave it a try but it would force close everytime i wanted to select a wallpaper.

Absolutely the same and even more.... I have my picasa account connected to the gallery too, after an hour mainly picassa the gallery crashes - black screen, but no force close. Actually this one, the battery (not 100% after disconnecting) and the contacts app not closing, made me go back to JPP.

The contacts bug can be solved by uninstalling the task manager's update.

Yes, go to manage applications, find it and click uninstall updates to go to the previous version, and the contacts app will be ok.

I wouldn't say perfect but it's the best stock firmware yet.

[Q] Losing desktop icons and wallpaper on reboot

Hi all,
I've read hundred of stickies, Q&A's, FAQ's, nd whatever, but I haven't found a similar problem. I's appreciate any help or hint.
When I reboot, many desktop icons (direct links) disappear. Also the wallpaper (I use Ownskin). Widgets and other settings seem to remain unaffected.
This doesn't happen to all icons: e.g, in the 4th desktop screen I have 16 game icons. When I reboot, 8 or 10 of them have disappeared.
I wonder if this is related to having moved some apps to the SD, as if they have somehow lost track of their confg files (sorry if this sounds dumb, newbie Android user).
I am extremely happy with my SGS, but this problem is getting really annoying.
Here's my data
GT-I9000
Official carrier (Spanish Movistar) Froyo.BGJP3 update
Baseband I9000BGJP2
Rooted and lagfixed, carrier bloatware removed.
TIA for your time!
same problem here.. every program i install to sd the icon is gone after reboot.. seems to be some kinda timing thing where when it builds the desktop the sd is in the middle of scanning for media or something.. running stock jpy 2.2.1 with bln kernel.. anyone else..
Your explanation is probably correct. However, I am curious as to why you still need app to SD despite having 2 gb of app space.
that is normal with most apps 2 sd
if you refresh it again, they will show up
dont really need apps to sd with 2 gig you are right.. but apps such as angry birds.. automatically install to sd (ie over 16 meg)..
allgamer. how do you refresh your desktop.. scanning media is not the same.
and it is a pain to manually add icons after every boot.
is this the problem in all froyo.. really needs to be fixed.. there needs to be some kinda delay say 2 minutes after boot before removing icons.. even if it has to show some generic icon till the app is avial.

Yes, that was it! I moved all apps back to memory, and everything is working fine again. You are right, there is no need to put them into the SD, with such an amount of available space. Anyway, I still think this is a bug in Froyo. If it has the option to put apps to SD, it should work correctly.
Thanks!

App icon keeps disappearing!

Does anyone else have this issue? It started happening to me on JB stock LQ4 - I'd put the "sportstracker" app on my homescreen, and every now and again it would be deleted (its an app I use daily, so I notice it!).
I didn't think too much of it, but now I've installed LightJB and the CoCore E 6.0 I half expected this problem to have gone away - but it has happened again! It only seems to affect that one app, which is installed in just the same way that others are - not on the SD card, from the playstore etc etc.
Its more of a mild annoyance than anything else, but I have read of at least one other person experiencing it - any ideas where to look for a solution?
Cheers!

Go to settings, then applications, and tap on the app. Move it to phone storage, and then put the app back on your screen and restart. It should stay there. Seems a bit of a bug with touchwiz that if it is on sd card it is removed upon restart.
Yep, touchwizz have that bug.

I was just about to post to say that it wasn't on the SD card (because I haven't put it there!!), and then noticed that in apps it says "Move to device storage", so I guess it actually is on the SD card for some peculiar reason. Do the app developers get to specify where it is stored?
Anyway, thanks - I'll move it across and hopefully it'll "stick"!

Use Apex or other launcher and all will be fine.

Mi mix keeps forgetting drawing over other apps

Hi,
So when I reboot... I always have to switch some over drawing apps like meteor swipe on again. Sometimes accessibilities to... Why does this happen? Why doesn't the switches stay on like I putted them when I rebooted?
I have this same issue. It forgets certain permissions on certain apps. It also seems to happen when switching between second space and back to first space. Very annoying, I hope that Xiaomi or the EU rom developers fix this.
you'll have this problem unless you allow that app to autostart in the security app. it's stupid but for instance i need that setting for LMT and thats the only way to solve it.
if you continue to have problems use Titanium backup to convert the app to a system app that fixes things usually as well.
secturity, accessibility, services make sure whatever app is drawing over apps is turned on.
also, go into whatever app you need to draw over apps and turn on every permission.
Yes it is a pain.
I also have trouble with my alarm, if the alarm notification is not in the notification panel the Alarm will not go off.
A real pain.

Enable popup window permission for this app and you're done.
