I can't seem to make the Weather app work. I can't search the current location. It shows that "Update failed. Please try again later." but my brother's OP5 works fine. Also in shelf, it shows "data not available. tap to retry." When I tapped it, it just goes to the weather app that can't find my current location.
I've tried clearing the cache, data. Rebooting a lot of times. Even factory reset via recovery, still doesnt work. Am I missing something? I'm on high accuracy in location settings btw.
Do you find any solution?

I have a widget on one of my home screens that I cannot see, but it is taking up space. There is nothing (*nothing*) displayed. When I add a widget it automatically places it on the top of the home screen. I am unable to tap-hold on the invisible widget and drag it to the trash. Once I fill up the space on the top portion of the screen I receive "No room on this home screen" as an error when trying to add any additional widgets. I have tried clearing cache, wiping & formatting via xRecovery. I have also cleared the Davlik cache (not thinking that would do anything, but what the hell).
Google produces no results...with information.
I have scoured the /etc & /system/etc folders searching for some kind of .conf file and even searched my sdcard for any kind of data. I have zapped all files/folders named "cache".
The widget was Latitude's widget, but I have even uninstalled all updates to "Maps" and cleared the data for that program.
Any suggestions/assistance would be greatly appreciated (short of "reload your phone").

Have you cleared dalvik-cache from xrecovery? If not, try that. Also, what launcher are you using? If its 3rd party, try uninstalling and reinstalling. Don't remove your only launcher, though.
i hae that prob with stock fw, when pressing home button every widget on that page is gone I have to move to another page to get them back :s
I had this problem with Arc homescreen on 2.1
just change your homescreen from current to another one via home switcher.
it will be fine
I had an invisible widget aswell...can't remember which one, but i managed to delete it. All this happened accidently when i was swiching through my homescreens and saw a movement..i then started tap-holding quite a few times on the screen till i was finally able to grab it and delete it....
go to settings--->applications--->manage applications
then go to your home launcher application, click clear data and clear cache if available.
can't find it :S
doesn't really bother me but still annoying when happens

Great! I had the exatly same problem described by d3coy and you saved me.
I can report that on an Italian rom the home launcher application is named 'schermata iniziale' and is found between all of the application!
Clickin it let's you clear all data and reset it to inizial condition!
As soon as I'll find the thanks button I'll use it!
I just recently re-flashed Android 4.3 onto my Nexus 10, rooted it, then used TitaniumBackup to restore all my app data. Now I've rebooted and parts of the interface won't load / won't work.
The Home button doesn't work anymore, only the back and task-switcher buttons are working.
In the top toolbar, I can slide down the notifications, but none are displayed. The Alarm, Wifi, Battery, and Time is displayed in the top-right like normal, But I can't slide down the quick-settings.
Also, When I long-press the power button, I'm only given the option to Power off, nothing else.
One more thing: The lock-screen isn't ever shown!
Is there an easy way I can fix this? I'm guessing it has something to do with wiping the data & cache of some app, but I don't know which one.

Did you also restore all of your system app data? In general, that would be a big nono (and you could use Titanium's filters to clear data only from system apps). Not a great situation though either way.

OK. I thought I did filter out the system apps. I might have missed something. I'll try and clear the data from the system apps and see if that helps any. I'll just write this as I go...
I've opened TitaniumBackup, and it said that my Android ID had changed?
I told it to use the old ID... And now it's rebooting...
Now I've wiped the system-app data and am rebooting...
Didn't help any. Same problem still.
Update
Update:
I've given up and just did a factory reset last night. Now I'm restoring my adb backup. ('Cause for some reason my TitaniumBackup in Google Drive got erased!?) Oh well. Anyways, things seem to be working properly now.
Hey guys, I will try to find include as much info as I can. I have Google play loaded on the device. I tried to uninstall an app and the icon remained, trying to uninstall it again gives me a pop-up about the app files do not exsist. Ever since then if i install an app from either the play store or the Amazon app store they will not show up on the main screen. The apps are there and I can remove them via settings. I have tried a hard reset as well as reinstalling the initial app that caused the problem. When I do that the app icon works again but no new apps show up still. If I uninstall it again it does the same thing as the first time, the icon stays.
I was hoping there was something running in the background i can clear the data for or something to fix this. I do not know enough about it to tinker around with it. I have some stuff downloaded from Google play that i cannot backup. A factory reset will lose the data on those accounts so I am trying to avoid it.
If you have any suggestions I will gladly try them, thank you in advance for your help
Mine is doing the same today, I've uninstalled it but the icon remains on the screen. I've also tried others that I've installed from Google play, all behave the same.
Are new apps that you install showing up? I cannot get any new app to appear.

Same issue happening on my Fire HD 10. No newly downloaded apps showing on home screen, and icons for uninstalled apps are grayed out. Tried clearing the home screen cache, but no luck.

This might be somewhat related. Please try the following trick to see if it helps:
(1). Settings --> Apps & Games --> Manage All Applications
(2). Swipe left in order to display "ALL" applications and then scroll down to select the application named "Home Pages"
(3). Tap "CLEAR CACHE" and then "FORCE STOP"

Clearing the data and cache for the home screens did finally work for me! I had to reorganize all my apps on the home screen, but not a big deal.
huge thanks for that.

Thanks! I had the same issue today, and I did the above steps twice for it to take hold. All fixed now! :good:
This was driving me nuts. This is the solution! No way I would've found it on my own if I had a million years. Thanks!
Cant uninstall app, this app has no icon its just blank. Theres a blank slot in the device administrators as well it can be checked and unchecked but has no information about it. Just blank if anyone can help it would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
cant create folder shortcut
Sorry to wake this thread up, but I can't seem to create a shortcut to a folder on my sd card on the fire hd8 tablet for kids. I have downloaded many different file explorers, have used them to create a shortcut, they say the shortcut has been created and is on home screen, but the folder shortcut never shows up on the home screen. Any help please....
I'm not sure when this issue actually started but when I tried to edit my Smart Lock settings today, I found I couldn't get into the Screen Lock settings at all.
I have a LG V20 US996 unlocked & rooted running software version 10n. When I try to access Settings -> Display -> Lock screen, I get "Unfortunately, Lock Screen Settings has stopped.". Here's what I've tried thus far based on articles I've found around the webiverse:
Cleared all of the cache & rebooted.
Cleared all the user certificates under Certificate management.
Cleared the data for the following packages via Titanium Backup followed by a reboot:
com.lge.lockscreensettings.overlay 1.0
com.lge.provider.lockscreensettings 7.0
Lock Screen Settings 5.50.160811
Rebooted into safe mode using the default launcher and still couldn't get into the Lock screen settings.
I currently have a passcode set. Clearing the above package data did not remove the passcode. I also use Nova Launcher but somehow I don't think that's the issue since I wasn't using it in Safe Mode.
This issue is making me a tad nervous as I'm afraid I'll boot or try to unlock the phone and it won't let me. I'm all ears for any suggestions I could try short of resetting the phone to defaults.
Thanks!
I'm having the same issue. Nova launcher also. Tried all "fixes" mentioned as well.
Figured out my issue, not sure if it applies to you as well.
I ran a logcat and found that the lockscreen settings showed an error looking for weather settings. I previously froze the LG weather apps. After unfreezing the 3 weather apps, lockscreen settings work once again!
Good luck!
Holy crap, it worked! I had frozen it with Titanium as well. Unfreezing it made all the lock screen settings work again. How obscure and annoying is that?
Thanks!
Pistacios solution fixed the problem. Unfreezing the LG Weather apps (with Titanium, in my case) fixed the problem.
Awesome! Glad I helped. I came across your post when I had the problem and decided to dig deeper and that's when I found the answer.
Lockscreen wallpaper can still be changed with the apps frozen, just do it thru the gallery with the "set as" option, but just about everything else needs those apps active. I just unfreeze, change settings, then refreeze them.
I just got the Nov. 7 update on my Tab A 10.5. Everything runs fine so far. Only problem is when I try to open settings it force closes. Everytime I try to open settings I get a pop-up saying the settings keeps stopping. I have the option of app info or force close. I can access WiFi and Bluetooth settings by swiping down the notification shade and tapping and holding the appropriate icon. But I can't get into settings. I cleared settings cache and data, rebooted into recovery and cleared cache. Still keeps force closing. I really don't want to factory reset and lose everything. Any ideas to try first?
