Hi Spikes,

unfortunately I have not yet found the cause or any further infos to the problem. I'm going to look into other launchers - also because the icons are so large on nexus5.

Same problem on my Nexus 5.

4.4.2 Android Version installed and the problem still survive.

Please, help us!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahabbass:
Same problem here, but with GEL on Nexus 4 on Android 4.4.2. (I know it is a Nexus 5 thread, but I though it would be helpfull).

Trying to resolve the matter, I came up with a solution(?) :

1. Put new shortcuts/widgets so as to get back the same number of screens as you had before.

2. Settings --> Home --> Old Launcher

3. Home button

4. Settings --> Apps --> Google Search --> Clear cache (this step may not be necessary)

5. Google Search --> Force stop

6. Home button

7. Settings --> Home --> GEL

8. Home button

This triggers something and I get my original screens back (most of the times)

Please verify this solution and report back.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bishop2020:
Hi,

I have all the same problel about the disappearing additional home screens: it appens randomly(apparently) when ,at the moring, I turn on my Nexus 5.

(

last standard firmware 4.4.2 on,GEL Launcher and Google Now disable)

.

I found this other strange thing: when i found disappearead additional home screens, if I had new home screens with only app in each, when I reboot, SOMETIMES, i found the old disappeared home screens(whit the preovious app icons in them)

I thought it was a problem of "Clean Master" "Delete Junk Files" operation but I cant reproduce the problem everytime.

Anyone have hints about this problem?

thanks

PS: Happy New Year!!

Has anyone discovered a solution to this problem? I recently installed PA 4.1 on my Nexus 4 and found that my homescreens kept getting wiped after reboot. It's hugely annoying and I can't tell if it's a problem with the ROM or the launcher.

Well this might be the fix:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cidefix:
This is a fix for disappearing icons when updating the corresponding app, not disappearing screens. Since the Google Now Launcher is a normal app in the Play Store this can't be fixed by an OS update.

Btw: there is a thread in the Nexus product forum.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guilleyguille:
Also happening to me

The problem was also happening to me, so I've installed other launcher with a very similar design to this one (called KitKat Launcher +). I set up my four home screens, and after a few reboots they all disappeared, resting one empty. So I went to the launcher settings and changed the number of screens to a manual number (four, instead the dynamic mode that used before and also uses Google Now Launcher). That way, two of the four hidden screens returned, but two were still missing. Then, I set six home screens, appearing the two missing and having two empty. The unique thing I did after was just to put the empty home screens in the final, setting again the number to 4. Since that, they haven't disappeared again.

What I want to tell you with this is that the problem is in the dynamic home screens number system (the one in which screens are created when you drag an icon), which use both KitKat Launcher + and Google Now Launcher. The bad thing is that in the second one you can't change it, while in the other yes. We just can wait Google to fix it in an update through the Play Store, but I think that this discovering could be interesting.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darcus:
I was losing icons after a reboot.

Turns out when I moved those apps to internal memory, they didn't disappear.

I have a HTC one, so may be unrelated to the nexus. I came to this thread trying yo find a fix for my disappearing icons on the Google Now Launcher.

Hope that helps some of y'all.

Hey guys, if you're having issues with your 4.4 camera that it shows a black screen when launched..You should try this.

Enable root explorer and mount system as r/w

Set /system/etc/init.d/80cfw to rwx r-x r-x

After changing it, unmount system from r/w and reboot.

This is ONLY for roms with the black-screen bug!

Pls THANK OR COMMENT if it works. :D!

Hi All

I have a rooted GT-9100 phone with Jelly bean official Samsung Rom installed.

Build No : JZ054K.I9100XWLST

Baseband Ver. : I9100DDLS9

In the last few days i was having problems with many apps, and phone is restarting automatically. so i decided to do factory reset, after that as always the starter mode wanted me to select the language, after asked to update Time and date which i did and then suddenly the screen went black.

It started to reboot and since then the phone is stuck at the Samsung Logo.

what now? any suggestions?

FYI

: I have rooted device with Siyah Kernel 3.0.31.

same issue

hello, i know this is a 6 months old thread but this is the first time now i found someone with the same issue.

Firstly i played around with flashing shiyah with sort of worked but i never had root acces, but thats not the problem here.

I did a factory reset when phone was stable and everything broke. It would boot up untill the language select, screen dims a bit after 1 sec, and then it restarts. When shiyah kernel is on there it will just stay stuck on the samsung text after boot after that. When i flashed stock kernel etc it would boot up the same at first, crash on language select. and then show the samsung boot animation over and over (not the sound though thats only the first time). in CWM recovery of shiyah whiping cache reset and dalvik wont help..

i find it strange that it broke on the factory reset.

Did you manage to solve this ?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
So flash a stock rom with Odin to get back to square one ? You've probably flashed a version of Siyah that's incompatible with what you're currently running (Android version-wise). Once you've done that, flash PhilZ to root your phone+CWM & go from there (if you want to persist with Siyah, read the thread thoroughly to ensure you're flashing the correct version for the Android version you're running).

If simply flashing stock doesn't fix the problem, do a factory reset after you flash the stock rom. If that doesn't work, find Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread stickied in General, download the 3 part firmware linked to in the thread & flash that (this will wipe your phone).

Okay, my phone is LG E988, and i followed the guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2460859

I got until the TWRP part, managed to flash TWRP, and that is when the nightmares came out.

I used ROM Manager from the app store to get into recovery mode (With TWRP as recovery).

First try, i got into TWRP recovery page, but the touchscreen failed so i pulled out my battery and restarted the phone.

Got back to android screen, then wanted to go back recovery mode via ROM manager again.

This time, when i reboot into recovery, i got into CWM instead of TWRP. So i select "Reboot to system" to restart the phone.

Now is where all the **** starts. I'm stuck at the LG logo page with the message "boot certification verify".

Restart many times by pulling battery out but no avail. Then i went to factory reset the phone. After confirming factory reset, screen blacked out for a few sec then i went back to CWM. I cant find any backup either.

Tried all fixes from the forum but all not working. Cant extract .dz & .dll from .kdz because it cant (becomes corrupted).

Anyone can provide me with E988 Singapore .dll and .dz !!! NOW MY GOAL JUST TO MAKE IT BACK TO STOCK!!!

HELP ME FIX THIS PLEASE. MY DAD IS GONNA KILL ME !!

Note: Some might blame me for my own fault to tweak my E988, but someone said that customs for E980 can be used for E988. Please help :(

Edit: Still need the .dll and .dz please

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] musiccube:

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] heliosfa:
when you press the npower button, it puts the device into standby, which turns off everything except what is required to keep the phone running and to keep the ram powered. As such, it kills the sound codec and no doubt SD card, meaning no music.

Think of it like this, put your computer into standby while listening to music, it kills the audio output, signal to display, hdds etc. etc., same thing happens on these devices.

Solution to this? fraid i don't know, i just know why.

I have been searching for the stock rom for a zte sonata 4g, model number z740g (not z740, which is for at&t). I unknowingly flashed the stock rooted at&t rom. Then i discovered there was no nandroid backup. I have been searching the web every day for 3 weeks now. Finding this rom seems impossible.

Hi guys I recently rooted my phone and thought that if I could refresh my tablet a bit with a new rom Id use it more so I decided to root that too.

I have followed a lot of the guides on here but am really having issues. The Superuser app just will not work, I have copying and pasting in the new version and rooting again, I have tried unrooting and doing it again with no superuser.apk file at all or a bin superuser file and still no.

I cant even check if the device is rooted correctly as root checker just will not come up with a result it just loads forever.

I tried installing SuperSU instead but it gets stuck on installing then it says there is another programme that may be conflicting and then it just gives up too.

Hellow guys,

I need help with my HTC sensation it has no internet(data connection) anymore after i change proivider.

Before i had "vodafone.nl" and i changed to provider "ziggo mobiel"

When i had Vodafone i never had problems with mobile network/ internet/ data connection

I have an flashed rom from Cyanogen mod 10.2 with android 4.3 version on the Sensation.

Ziggo told me that the problem can be caused of an flashed rom/ rooted mobile. i dont believe that because before it was the same phone+ rom

the only thing i changed was the provider.

Calling and smsing works all fine. wifi works too. I set all mobile network settings as Ziggo told me to do. And all did not work.

And could it be really the rom that causes this problem (like ziggo says)??

btw, my brother have same problem same also at "ziggo mobiel" and he have an" HTC one 32gb " original stock rom.

Or can i get an file on this forum to solve this problem?? I would be very thankfull if anyone can help me out!!
