Has any one had a problem with widgets not showing after moving an app 2 sd? The widgets r still there if u long press where they should b but u can't see them :/ this usually happens for a few seconds after mounting the sd but now they not comin back even after reboot. It's a decent quality card too

Leave them in phone storage, Widgets don't work properly from sd

Your first post says they are in SD, and your third post says they are in phone memory? I am a bit confused?
Further, which widget are you referring to in this case?

Lol, sorry the disapearing widgets are phone memory things like power control, they became 'invisible' after moving unrelated apps like opera to the sd.
I had to remove the invisible widgets from the home screen and add them again. Guess its not important, just wondered why

i think you must let the media scanner complete then you get it back!!
Thanks for the reply. I did that a lot of times and i got nothing even the shortcuts in home screen went missing but the apps are still in applications list though.

Did you move the applications to the SD card? This happens to me, if the application was moved into SD card, it just disappear whenever I restart the phone.

Yes exactly! Is it a problem with froyo?

No, no it's a problem or bug, is the way Move to SD works. Apps which have widgets can't be moved to SD
Hey guys.
Just saw a "Allow application moving" option in the CyanogenMod settings menu.
This allows any app to be moved to the SD card.
I have been wondering...by allowing any app to be moved to SD even though originally they can't...
are there any side effects, problems or any inconveniences caused by doing so?
Thx guys.

It doesn't let you do it for all apps but otherwise it works well.
It's also a good idea to keep your widget apps on the phone.
Oh ok thx.
If you will move any widget to SD. You will have to configure it every time you turn on phone. The same with launchers and keypads.
ok. I'll remember that.

If you need it, there are apps in the market which let you know what apps can be put on sd and what apps can't or shouldn't. Type 'app 2 sd' in search box in market

I know...but I don;t mean that. There is a setting in CyanogenMod settings that can MOVE ANY APP to SD.
I was inquiring about that.
I already know what you were trying to say in your original post.
However, I was just adding on to what cheryanne and zdune were saying.

You mean apps on the market like: Move2SD or Apps 2 SD?
Hi I have dhd but when installing apps then transfering them to the memory card, when having custom folders on the home screen restaring the device causes the icons to show as the standard default android icons. Is there anyway of making keep the original app ones?
Thanks
I have the same issue as well.

I have found a solution that although it works for me is perhaps not ideal.
If you change the 'skin' to something other than the one you are using, this seems to sort the problem. You can then change back to your original.
The only other thing I had to do was to then change the wallpaper back to what I wanted, but this does not make any difference to the solution.
Let me know if this works for you.

when you transfer apps to sd card..u get those icons because apps need to load from the card then.. Give a min or 2.. Then theyvr bsck to normal

This issue is not that simple. Even if the phone is on for days, the icons don't change. Even selecting them to open the app makes no difference.
The only way I can resolve this issue is to do what I said in my previous post. I have also found that if HTC Sense has to force close and restart, then the correct app icons appear.

good tip changing skin..
Changing the skin works..
I have this weird behaviour, that some app-icons in folder (not widgets) from apps i have moved to sd via settings (not app2sd) disappear after reboot. I have to kill the "Home" task and then they reappear. The apps also still listed as "installed" under settings->applications. Does anyone can confirm this or is my device buggy?
I allready tested different sds to make sure that the sd is not corrupt.

i dont have this problem, try restoring/reflashing
Icons are missing is always market cache. Go to settings/applications/mange applications/all tab/market. Then delete cache. then reboot. Always works. sometimes needs a couple times though.

That doesnt work for me. Some icons still not visible in drawer. I can see that after some time, several icons are added but not all. I have to kill the Home task and then all icons are visible. Maybe I try also lauchner pro. I also contacted SE support and they said i should send the phone to repair.. i think its a softwarebug. i really like the phone and dont want to sent it away for a couple of weeks. I also debugged the phone via adb logcat to check if there is maybe a fatal error accessing the sd, but i saw nothing unusual so maybe the se home app is buggy.
hm launcherpro kinda solved the prob. all app icons are generated in the drawer after reboot, but now apps ive placed in home-folders loosing their icons. it seems that mounting the sdcard after reboot takes too long and apps depending on sd having probs. hope its not a faulty hardware. ill do another test with class10 sd

Don't come on this section much, I'm a captivate guy. But my daughter has a completely stock desire z on bells network.
What is happening with her phone is regularly she will have to do a reboot, or sometimes even a battery pull because she will add some songs, or pictures and sometimes even SMS messages and she knows they're there but they won't show until the reboot. In the case of gosms, she gets the notification icon on the display up top, and when she clicks it, the messaging app is empty, until the reboot?! The songs and pics are the same thing, she knows they're there, and they show, but not until a reboot. Hope i've given enough details. As I said, stock rom, everything. Thanks in advance.

It's probably an effect of a known bug with refreshing cache for files on SD card. Try running this instead of reboot:
SDRescan

Though not sure what the heck is going on with her messaging... First time I hear about that. Maybe corrupted internal memory card?
thanks given, I'll give it a try.
Sounds like an sd card issue going on here. That app should help, but I don't know why it is affecting gosms...

I'm not sure if the gosms issue is a regular one or not. I've got the sd Rescan on there now and we'll see if that helps. I have to go over her phone and get rid of as bunch of unused apps as it is. Not to mention she had about 8 updates that I took care of for her. Thanks a lot all!

I had the same problem after OTA update on the stock ROM.
Reset to factory defaults after update solved the problem.

The phone isn't rooted, so internal factory reset is appropriate.

Right, but you don't have to either, do you? I just thought it would be easier, since the phone isn't rooted, to do it thru Settings...
