Has anyone of y'all noticed the bug in the launcher like when you arrange your apps on the home screen some icons disappear instead of filling that spot and suddenly they're in a folder? Well it happens tto me frequently idk if I'm the only one

Yeah, this happens to me too.
Here's the fix:
Go to settings>Applications>development> and enable "stop app via long press"
Then just press home and hold the Back button and kill the launcher. It will then restart the launcher and you'll be able to organize again. Dont worry it wont erase your app and widget placement.

Has anyone else noticed after the recent adw updates when going back from menu or an app it seems to have rebooted itself and has to reload icons and widgets which takes a bit sometimes?
Yep. All adw launchers do that. There is an option in the settings to have it persist. But you will lose auto rotate in the hone screen

Noticed it too. Seems like a new thing.
I always check out peoples comments when I get an update available notification. This one seemed to be a few issues so have left it til they sort it out and do a new update. They come out pretty regularly so hopefully you will get sorted soon. Have you emailed them or commented on the app's wall?
are you using any theme? i used to have that problem when i was using sense theme.
Can´t find how to turn auto rotate of the the screen of, anyone can help??

1.1.3 came out today.. (I think it was today..)... Lets see if it's any more stable.. I had virtually no problems with it prior to 1.1.0.. now it's a nightmare!
Anybody else find it annoying that they replaced the "Notifications" option when you press the menu key with "Edit"? Cause I have the notifications bar hidden and now I have to open some random app to get the notification bar... (And no, I dont want to use the slide up/down gestures....)
Yea, mine crashes often
Mine has became laggy when scrolling through home page after the update!
Same experience here.....
After disabled scroll cache in settings, my home screen scrolling speed back to normal again. Finally solved this problem which has been troubling me for days.

Ok so i accidently deleted the menu button that takes you to all the apps. I am running DJ05 and i tried restoring, but its still gone. Any ideas?
What launcher are you using?
Not sure if it'll help since i'm on DI01, using launcher pro, but if you just long press one of the icon locations, choose change shortcut, choose applications. If applications is missing from THAT list, then you'll need a less noob to help ya out.
If you're using ADW, long press the homescreen and select "launcher actions." Then choose "open/close app drawer." Now drag your new icon to the dock on the bottom.

^ Thanks! This Worked Perfect!
Occasionally I lose my dock bar in ADW. I usually fix it by killing ADW in Task Manager (stock) and it fixes itself when it reopens. If that doesn't work, I toggle options in ADW Settings until it comes back.
I don't actually have an app/home button anyhow. I replaced it with google voice search. There is a setting in ADW that lets you Up-swipe for app drawer, so I prefer that.
Swyped w/ XDA App. When in doubt, mumble.
Hi all. I have encountered a bug on the stock launcher, where you launch the app from the drawer and after using the app, you exit and return to the drawer, the drawer is blank and only has the home icon...
Mostly happen when I return from memory intensive apps like modern combat 2

Don't know the reason for this, but used to happen to me as well.
I'm assuming you're rooted and are running a CM7 based ROM, so just go to CyanogenMod settings -> Performance -> Lock home in memory.
I got the same thing going on too sometimes. In addition, sometimes when I exit an app the home screen(s) are blank -with just my background & nothing else. It acts exactly like the blank app drawer does. Everything returns after a few seconds though. I'm maybe thinking that it has something to do with low available RAM??
I'm not rooted, stock 2.3.4
I might be going the rooted route here soon to try & resolve this issue, along with my reboot issue during calls.
The launcher is being killed from ram (memory) because the application you are using is requiring too much.
Like the other poster said you can check "keep launcher in memory" in some roms and also in launcher settings for some launchers. This however is not a full guarantee that it will not be purged.

I'm seeing this as well. A reboot tends to clear it up for a while but it eventually starts happening again after a few days to a week. Stock 2.3.4 i9020T.
I do not have it rooted, nor do I have a 3rd party launched on there, I downloaded a text widget app which I believe may have something to do with why its doin this because it only started doing it when I tried to apply the widget to one of my screens, I have also tried to turn of off and then it back on but no luck.
Can anyone tell me there is a wah to access the apps and they to delete it by pluging it in and doing it that way? Would really hate to have to recover to a previous version
I don't quite understand what is going on. Does your launcher force close only when you try to put the widget on the screen, or does it force close on booting now?
If it is just when you put the widget on the screen, then there is something wrong with that widget and you can just uninstall it.
Sorry,no it does it now even when I boot

What app or widget?
I think it was literally called text widget, it was 4 stars and had over 10,000 dls so I didn't think anything about t I guess
this is the app I dl'd

well I was able to get it fixed by just spamming the settings button and was able to get to the applications and manually un-install it
Hi,
Using Nova Prime. I'm noticing the phone going to the cartoonish Samsung Easy Home a lot when I back out of certain apps or widgets.
Example - insert a Gmail 3x3 widget. Tap a message (which loads the Gmail app). Now try to back button out to your home screen. You get Samsung Easy Home and not your actual default launcher. This happens even with the stock TouchWiz Home as default too.
Anyone else seeing this?
I'm using Nova Prime also and that has never happened to me.
Have had the same thing happen even though easy home is turned off in settings. With Stock launcher
