I experience the same problem with the Android 4.0.3 release 5 installed on both of my two Sony Tablet S SGPT112US/S tablets.
The icons for all user apps disappear from the home screens and folders whenever the tablets are powered off and on. The problem only exists with user apps that have been moved to sdcard ("Move to USB storage" in settings). Moving the apps back to internal storage ("Move to tablet" in settings) stops the user app icons from disappearing. The problem does not effect the icons for system apps. The problem is definitely an Android 4.0.3r5 bug.
Sony is aware of the problem. I updated to Android 4.0.3 release 5a (using Condi's FLASH) anticipating Sony fixed the problem. They didn't.
I've had the same problem and to work around it I'm currently trialling 2 launchers, Apex & Nova.
Both work perfectly well when saving icons (that have been moved to usb) on the home screen.
Hope this provides a solution/workaround for you guys.
yes,just move them to internal storage

I actually was okay with the stock ROM (3588), but it wasn't rooted, I couldn't get Google's app suite on it and I didn't like the launcher. I installed the Cyanogen 7.0.0 custom ROM and while all of the above gripes are solved video playback has a noticeable stutter (just the picture, sound is okay) and the fonts and of the UI seems fuzzy or stretched (as if its not using the full 1024x600 resolution). Also the fact that the internal memory doesn't mount as /sdcard is urking me (I don't have a microSD card).
Is there a custom ROM that is a nice blend between the stock ROM and the Cyanogen 7 ROM (and doesn't have that ugly spacing between apps in the launcher)?
I would suggest you try Vegan Ginger. It's got some more of the Vega flavor added to CM7.
If you are still on CM7, replace the launcher (try VTL-Launcher in the Themes/Apps section). VTL is geared more for tablets. You can also change the number of rows & columns that will make better use of the screen.
All Gingerbread based roms are going to have some video issues. nVidia has not released drivers for our system for GB. There is an ongoing 'movement' to try and fix that. Seems to be having some success.
Vegan Ginger also mounts the /Sdcard & /sdcard2 the way you are used to. CM7 standard is to put internal memory on /emmc. I expect sooner or later we will have to move that route.
try vegan 5.1.1 with vtl. first look up .nomedia and market fix.
Thanks! VTL Launcher works great, except I can't get into an individual widget's settings since the launcher's long press takes precedence over the widget's long press. I'll try Vegan next if the issue becomes a real problem.
Thanks again!
What about installing the stock ROM (3588), rooting it, install Google Apps and replacing the stock launcher (with VTL Launcher)... is this possible?? Particularly rooting the stock ROM and getting the Google Apps installed since I've yet to come across any posts/articles about these.
Install the stock rom and then the enhancement pack. It will give you root and the market
rats! The 3588 enhancement pack doesn't have root. it also doesn't have the long press the home button for app switching feature.
On to Vegan Tab I guess...
If VEGAn is where you're headed and you like to watch ripped dvds on your gTab I would suggest you stay with froyo VEGAn 5.1 with the 5.1.1 supplemental as that version has hardware acceleration and the Ginger Edition of VEGAn doesn't.

Correction: VTL Launcher doesn't get in the way of a widget's long press features - I was doing it wrong. The widget in question is CirlceLauncher (1.6) and I figured out how to really get to an individual launcher's settings/configuration (tap to bring up apps THEN long press to bring up it's settings).
Also long press is a default feature for all desktop launchers by design (for moving shortcuts/widgets/folders around). I should of known that couldn't have been a widget's feature. Thanks for not flaming me everyone!
So far VEGAn Tab beta 5.1 and VTL.Launcher is the winning combo for me. Even though I don't like the notification bar icons, I think I've finally settled on a ROM.
I use GO launcher as it is a really nice app, but since version 2.87 I cannot add new widgets or wallpapers anymore. Clicking on 'Add' on Preferences or long clicking the background does nothing.
I had the problem under 2.3.3 but after upgrade to ICS 4 the problem persisted.
Is this a known problem ?
A little background... I'm running the perma root method that shows version 9.9.9 and 1.4.0 and have access to play market etc. I also have the nice ICS bar buttons. I downloaded go launcher ex today and it runs fast, looks good, etc. My problem is that it is sized wrong! The fonts are huge or small depending and the bar at the bottom often sinks down into where the notification bar is. It's annoying and I believe it's because of the dpi or something that is stock on the nook. Is there anything I can do to size this right so that the fonts and sizes are correct on the nook tablet? Again, I'm not running cm7 or 9, just stock rooted.
From what I remember when I was running rooted 1.40 months ago, Go Launcher didn't play nice. There is a stable version though, something like 2.67, I am going off memory, you may want to double check. I had to freeze Go launcher so as not to get any updates. Any version after that was a little wonky. You may want to try out CM7 or CM9, Go Launcher works really well with both.

I'm running 3.01 from Amazon, sideloaded on NT stock tablet 1.4, which should behave the same as your rooted version without the root access. (I don't run Google Play because it wouldn't ever install correctly and I have an SD card from which I run CM7 which does have the Play Store.) I have adjusted all icon and icon label and font sizes, icon grid spacing, etc. to sizes that look just fine. Go Launcher has many customization features under the preferences item on the menu.
I was running go launcher on 4.1.0 rooted and it was fine. I even changed the rows and columns to get more on the home screen. When I restored to go back to stock over the weekend go launcher updated to the latest and still worked well.
Okay, it's my first time posting...
I wanna ask about the Touchwiz 5 ported from SGS III to SGS II which available in many threads here...
I have a problem, this launcher always misses my apps. in the drawer...
I mean they aren't uninstalled, but they aren't listed in the drawer....
But, if I restart the launcher (by killing the launcher and start it again), they are listed in the drawer...
I know it's something like bug...
anyone have problem like this??
what's the solution...??
thanks to you all...
I have this issue too. But i have one more.... gray SD icons on apps(moved to sd) are displaying after boot. I must kill launcher..... I dont have any solution. I remember TW 4.0 restarts not long after boot.
Yeah it's well known bug.You can't see applications stored on sd on first run.You can move the app to internal memory(i use titanium backup to do that)or restart the app like you do after each reboot.
Well, move apps on internal memory and/or try to wipe cache of tw (for me it worked)
Hi, i just bought a Chinese dash cam/rear view mirror on amazon, i think its made by phisung
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00P7G994A?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00
it works well, but the android system is quite dated (4.0.4), and some of the setting are missing or dont work such as brightness adjustment.
so far i've rooted it using kingo and installed titanium and root explorer, and backed up the existing partitions using adb, but what i'm quite keen to do is modify the main launcher screen. at present i cant change the 7 apps on the main windows phone style launcher screen and I want to replace them with alternatives or replace the launcher.
I've sideloaded nova and a couple of other launchers, but whilst I can load them from the app draw, there is no option to set a new default launcher, and the home button always loads the pre-installed launcher, which is some chinese launcher listed as DX_launcher02 in the app draw and daxun.launcher.activity in system/ app folder, I've tried apps like launcher switcher, which have no effect on the default as the options is greyed out.
I've also tried freezing the built in launcher with Titanium, thinking it might then default to nova, but the home button( both hardware and soft buttons) then just loads a blank screen, so I used the recent app menu to go back to titanium and unfreeze the stock launcher.
I'm suspecting there might be a more complicated way to change the launcher, either by editing apk properties and changing the default app to point the shortcuts/tiles to new apps, or by setting a new default launcher, so if anyone can help, it would be much appreciated?
My friend bought exact same model.
He has problem with auto shutdown. Navigating or not - recording or not - there will be pop up that countdowns 10sec auto shutdown.
To abort shutdown - touch the screen. And of course - touching the screen doesn't help.
Have you found any solution for this?

Hi I do not know too much about this Android device, but I bought one (Crane_cvr) frm Tingway and it was full of Chinese software. Trying to delete it was not successful and loading Google Play was impossible. The sellers sent me an "new" h200-2.img file which I installed with Phoenixsuite. However, my functionality of the GPS disappeared. I have even connected another working GPS, to no prevail. Since it seems you have lot more knowledge, do you have an idea how I can get the GPS working? I have now been trying for 2 months. GPS Toolbox / Test / etc .. do not pick up any satellites, but it seems the GPS is detected.
Thanks in advance
