Apps magically uninstall on restart - HTC EVO 3D

Whenever i restart my phone, certain apps are missing when I reboot. I need to reinstall them from the market. I have a stock Evo3d, no ota. Most of the apps are moved to SD if that matters,
any ideas?

Every once in a while I get this issue, but I need to restart to get it back... Ota.

Do they actually uninstall or is it just the icons that change to a default icon?

Have you checked under your all apps to see if they are there? I haven't had any apps uninstall but the shortcuts on my homescreens stop working sometimes

Double gallery

Some how I now have 2 gallery icons in my app drawer and they both open the gallery. Using root explorer I went into system/app and I only see 1 galler.apk. How can I remove one?

Did you flash anything or try and add another gallery?
I just restored a Nandroid and thats basically about it. I have no idea why I have 2 icons now. I can only find 1 gallery.apk. Any ideas on how I can remove one of the icons or is this just a freak thing.
If you go to manage applications, menu, filter, show all... Are there two galleries? If so, delete one and reboot. If this does not work, hopefully someone else can chime in. do two show in titanium backup batch?
nice profile pic
Are you going on the cruise?
I know this has happened to me before when I flashed a ROM without a clean wipe on MT3G
Ok when I go to applications, manage then filter all it only shows one gallery there. Driving me crazy lol

My Apps in SD card not loading picture

I had to restart my phone and when it came back on, some of my application on any of the home screens were still there and worked when I engaged them, but the picture or the icon never refreshed. I don't have the fast boot checked, I like my phone to restart completely, if I remove the app then put back on home screen, the picture returns. What can I do?

There's another thread with the answer.
Short answer is: Sense has started up before the SD card is mounted. Hence, the icons for your apps on the SD were NOT available at the time. This is why some apps are phone only and you never put widgets on the SD.
You can do one of the following:
Move those particular apps back off the SD to the phone.
Restart sense with some app in the market.
Change your scene and change it back.
Work Around
Install Fast Reboot (Free from Market)
Run Fast Reboot
Icons will reappear.
I found the answer in another thread.

That's the market app. Couldn't remember and didn't want to go digging for the other thread.
Fast reboot comes with the phone in the power settings, icons came back when I force closed sense

NOT that fast reboot. hahaha. The fastreboot app in the market closes sense and such for you. it's not the Fast reboot built into the phone.

What do you means by "there is no options" when trying to clear default home launcher?
Yes. I have to uninstall then reinstall in order for it to work. Kind of a pain.

Are you using or have you used Home Switcher from the market? I use that app to go back and forth easily from Go Launcher(or any other launcher) to Sense. Lets you go in and choose the launcher, clear defaults etc.
Its and awful and extremely overpriced launcher with no customization features, all it has is bling!!! I returned it within 15 minutes of getting it...ADW ex is much better and customizable!!

Thanks I'll try that

Try going into HOME SETTINGS and under EXPERIMENTAL. Make sure all those options are turned off. SPB does warn you of instability if any of these choices are activated. Hope this helps.
Wait, did you buy it?

If your phone is rooted,
1.Rename spbshell.apk to launcher.apk
2.Move spbshell.apk to sytem/apps & then set permission (owner -READ WRITE,other Read only)
try it
We have a Q&A section, where all question related threads should be posted. Please keep all question threads there. Thank You.

Missing Icons on home screen

Just thought I'd share a bit of personal experience.
Those of you who have root access in there devices may have noticed icons missing on there home screens. If you are wondering why this is due to using Titanium Backup to move apps to the SD card. This only happens with certain apps, usually only the ones that can't be moved from the devices settings. To fix this simply move said apps back to internal storage and all will be well.

Other "move 2 sd" apk
Not just Titanium,i use Link2SD and it's the same,or force apk not 2 work,or widgets,just restore apk 2 phone.
BTW some task killers 2 can force widgets not to work 2.
I haven't had much experience with other apps like Titanium cos I'm very new to smartphones and my Arc is the first REAL smartphone I've had. Thanks for your info. I really have so much to learn.

lost icons found
The homescreen loads before your SD card. To get your icons back;
go to SETTINGS...select ALL
select the launcher (in my case SENSE) and force close.
The launcher will restart and all your lost icons should reload properly.
i am having this trouble too
haha didnt knew what to do thnx guys.

Go to settings/apps/all and find HTC sense, clear default and when you touch home button a screen should pop up asking what default launcher you would like to use
