Help - Safe Mode wiped out all widgets

I accidentally (not sure how) rebooted my HTC Rezound in Safe Mode. I rebooted to get out of Safe Mode, but now ALL of my widgets are gone (won'toad/white boxes). Every single one of them. I tried backup restore with Go Launcher, but no dice. Can anyone help me restore them without having to recreate every single one of them? This has never happened before. How were the widgets affected by this?

Thanks!

it is possible you never got out of safe mode. when i did that i couldn't get out no matter what. i ended up having to factory reset it

a good way to test to see if you are still in Safe Mode (mine had a white background with skating androids, some later incarnations of Android have a normal screen with a watermark, it varies) is to try running a market-downloaded app like a game or something else. if you get a force close message or it does *nothing* you're still in safe mode.
