[Q] Wolfbreak's CM 6.1.1: Problem with widgets after rebooting - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
First of all thanks a lot to the Dev's for their amazing work. Without all of that I would've sold my X10 with its crappy SE software long time ago.
I'm currently on latest CM by Wolfbreak and I'm having one particular problem:
After every reboot my widgets from Market's apps are gone from the screen (widget says "problem loading widget"). It's also gone from the screen widgets menu. This problem affects apps like LED Light, Color Note, Simi Clock and many others.
Anyone experiencing this issue? Is there any know solution to this? Thanks for help.
[EDIT] I found out, that this issue concerns only apps moved to SD. Though still no solution....

[Q] widgets dont refresh

Hi, I know this question has been asked a few times before but still there was no solutions in any of the threads, so making it again.
I have stock rom and stock launcher on my x10i and the widgets dont seem to refresh.
1. beautiful widgets (even the clock)
2. battery %
3. status switch.
From checking out the other posts, i have a common thread that all of them had installed Beautiful Widgets, and i too started getting this problem a few days after using this app..
So if anyone has a solution, please share it.... Really a pathetic problem
HELP plzzzzz
solution!!!!
Well after lots of trial and error.. the only solution i found is..
1. delete beautiful widgets animation
2. clear data beautiful widgets from settings - apps - beautiful widgets
3. uninstall beautiful widgets..
Living without beautiful widgets is better than facing that problem..

[Q] KA05 ROM - Music Player Widget

I have the Sony Xperia S running the latest KA05.2 ROM.
The issue I am having, one I had with KA04 as well, is that for some reason when you pinch the screen to look at the widgets it shows the Music Player widget activated but it is not there. If you try to add the widget it says "Widget already added". I searched the forums and gathered that this was an issue in the Xperia Arc as well and one had to Clear data for the homescreen in order to rectify it. I was hoping someone would have a solution for the Xperia S or either know which process is for the Homescreen since I tried to do it on every running process and it still didn't work.
Any help will be appreciated!

[Q] Anyone know why widgets "freeze" in ICS?

This is a problem that seems to occur only in ICS, but I don't know more than that. It didn't happen when I was running stock, stock/rooted, or Saurom. I'm using the Apex launcher but a quick Google search shows similar reports from people using Nova.
I'm running Flappjaxxx's ICS IMM76D UCLE2 Base (but I haven't updated to the new release that came out today). I've also noticed this on ICS Objection (with Apex launcher).
So, here's the issue: occasionally widgets will "Freeze" and stop updating. I've seen this with Beautiful Widgets (the clock will stop updating, so it will read 3:05 when it's actually 3:30), Android Pro Widgets (specifically the calendar and bookmark widgets--the calendar will not let you advance to different months, the bookmarks widget will not update to show new bookmarks if you refresh it), and the TweetCaster Pro widget (it will not update to show the latest tweets when you press the refresh button).
There is still some functionality with the widgets--they don't die completely. I can still touch the clock portion of Beautiful Widgets and get to the alarm settings. I can still touch individual days in the APW calendar widget and see appointments, and touch the header to launch the full calendar, and the APW Bookmarks widget is still scrollable, clicking individual bookmarks will launch those pages, and touching the header bar will launch the browser's default page. But for some reason they stop updating.
Things I know
1. Restarting Apex launcher appears to reset the widgets. They start fully functioning again.
That's about it.
RIght now I"m trying to determine if JuiceDefender might have something to do with it. I don't think it would because I've used JD on my other phones with no issues... HOWEVER, none of my other phones have ever run ICS. I don't know. Maybe ICS is different. I know JD had issues working with Gingerbread for a while...
Anyone have any thoughts? Questions? Experience with this? It's a bit mystifying. NOw that I know restarting Apex launcher gets everything working again it's a lot less annoying than it was (rebooting every time was a pain) but I'd still like to figure out how to make it go away.
I had same problem with beautiful widgets. my task killer was my problem.it was to aggressive
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
Same problem.
Have this problem both with Omega 7.0 rom and cyanogenmod.
Some widgets freezes after some minutes when phone is in standby mode.
Just by tilting the phone and let the window be landscape and then tilt it back again will activate the widget.
But it is annoying....
i had the same problem with widgets freezing; i uninstall go weather widget and go launcher and now it s fine again !!
edit: oops it came back...no freeze with Apex but it's still freezing with Tsf..
reedit: i found my problem: it was "clever contact widget "that froze the others widgets but only with TSF shell (not with Apex!!!)

i'm using a motorola atrix 2 with stock ics and this's happening to me also , it's not any app that's causing this problem , it's a bug in ics as to many .. searched gooogle .. no launcher can help , i tried nova prime and apex but same happens to both , but now i'm on stock blur again and it doesn't happen so frequently but still happens, they say that only google can help in this case , they have to give an update .. so we have to hopw that they'll give us one soon .. until then we have to restart the launcher
note- try an anlog clock on your home screen , or anlaog and digital both home screens in a one home screen , you might notice that digital clock freezes when the analog clock works fine , i don't know why but that's happening to me ..

3D parallax Background issue

Hey all,
I recently downloaded an app called 3D PARALLAX BACKGROUND.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vinwap.parallaxwallpaper
Seemed like a cool and interesting thing, much like the new iOS feature. Background looked pretty awesome too once I was done installing...
Only problem is, it changed my lock screen to something else (I guess a default within the program) and no matter what I do, I can't change it back to stock.
I have tried uninstalling the app, restarting the device, changing lockscreen to every stock lockscreen available, etc but it still won't change back.
Super weird and it seems that I am the only person that has had this problem. I looked through the app reviews and nobody mentions it. Wondering if it's an HTC One problem... Running 4.2.2 Android Revolution 12.0
Does anyone have any suggestions? I have attached a screenshot of the lockscreen in question. It's a nice looking one at least, but I am not a huge fan of the functionality and I would rather have a 12-hour clock than a 24-hour one...
TL;DR App changed lockscreen, can't get the stock one back.

Well that was quick, I figured out it was a completely other app that was activated for some reason. Go Locker was the culprit. Problem solved
Good work bro

[Q] All widgets disappear

This has happened twice to me. My screen is all set up the way I like it and then all of a sudden all my widgets disappear. Then a pop up comes asking me to allow widgets and I do. This is very irritating because I dont want to keep making new widgets everytime.

It's a terrible bug that we're trying to sort out. It should be sorted out soon, but for now it's best to export your theme (Themer Setting - Advanced - Export, then you can find it in the Export tab in My Themes) as this will backup your current screen. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Good to know you're on top of it. It usually only happens to me after a reboot. I usually remember to export before rebooting, but it just happened to me as I woke my device.. of course this was after spending an hour or so working on a new layout :/

Don't worry this bug is on our top priority list, we'll do our best to get the bug removed as soon as possible.
Apps and Widgets Still Disappearing
Hi - I see this is an old thread but I found it through Google, and I am a little surprised to see this has been an issue for so long. I am experiencing this very issue. Sometimes app icons and widgets will disappear even without me rebooting anything - just swiping through different homescreens. I have a Galaxy Note 4. Please let me know if there's possibly anything I can do to keep this from happening - I can't count the number of times I've re-created a widget.
Also, I was wondering - does Themer affect the default homescreen (TouchWiz in this case)? I had my TouchWiz homescreen set up the way I like with apps categorized into folders, but when I switched back to it, I see that apps and widgets have disappeared or moved around on TouchWiz as well. My suspicion is somehow Themer affected it.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Same problem here. I use the Samsung Music widget, resized to show a bit of the playlist and it regularly disappears from my screen. very annoying!
Will this be fixed in 2015?
Also there is a regular hick-up in painting the home screen, like it's not loaded from memory. This really reduces the overall experience with this great launcher!

Hi,
It's a very complex bug to overcome, and we've eliminated it from almost every device. Soon this bug should be fixed on all devices. For now you can always use this quick fix:
1. Uninstall Themer.
2. Delete the /sdcard/MyColorScreen/ folder (Remove the Exported folder if you have saved any themes).
3. Reinstall Themer.
If the problem still occurs we recommend selecting the Save Theme option when you long press on the homescreen, as this will temporarily save that theme. Hope this helps!

I'm having the same problem with disappearing widgets on reboot, but only with my LG G2 D801 (not as much of a problem, but also present, on my HTC One M7). The "problem" widgets are the non-Zooper widgets such as Digical+, Poweramp, Chronus, etc.
Hope it gets sorted out, because this launcher is superb (I'll keep using it, but would prefer the problem be eliminated).
Driving me nuts!
I spend at least an hour setting up Zooper and the rest of my widgets. Then something happens forcing me to reboot my phone. Poof! All my hard work is gone. This is 6th time this has happened on my unrooted Note 4! I love this launcher and have become quite used to the theme I've set up. Nothing I've tried works, exporting, saving, nothing. Please fix this! I'm seriously thinking I'll have to find another launcher if it happens again. It's becoming to time consuming.
I have a similar issue. I accidentally drug my widget too close to the dock, which crashed nova launcher. After nova restarted, my widget won't show on the screen, but when I go directly into zooper app, it still shows the widget active in screen?!?
