ADW [problem loading with widget]

[carlo67]

Hi
I have ADWLauncher EX 1.3.3.56
I had to do restored it but I have problems with [problem loading with widget]
I do back up my launcher settings, but widgets do not get restored on Android.
Anyone else having this issue, and know what might be causing it and what the fix might be?

Are the widget apps stored in SD card? If they are then this is normal. Never store widgets, or apps that uses active widgets on the SD card, because the widgets won't load every time you reboot the phone.

I think widget apps stored in SD card in tablet [galaxy tab7]

what u mean?
move apps to ex SD card or in SD card in tablet?

I found about this last night, had to move the apps running the widgets back to my phone.

No, you need them in the "internal phone storage", whatever that is called on your Galaxy Tab. It should around 2 or 3Gb in size, separate from the internal SD. It shouldn't be on ANY SD at all.

 

[carlo67]

all the apps are on internal phone storage

 

[chanchan05]

Do you have the Apps 2 SD app? Download that and check. Sometimes the device installs them directly to the mass storage without asking.

I have the App 2 SD Pro (move apps to SD) v2.43 some of the apps are on internal phone storage but the apps problem loading with widges are internal phone storage

have you got other ideas please

 

[chanchan05]

Could you tell me what apps these are? I'll try to look at them.

ADW does not restore widgets to the homescreen properly most of the time. You need to remove the "Widget not loading" icons and replace the widgets manually.

 

[carlo67]

geez re-add the widget again geez I got lot of widgets
must be easy way

 

[chanchan05]

you could always switch launchers.

 

[carlo67]

which one?

 

[chanchan05]

Go Launcher or Launcher Pro.

I've encountered the same problem as the OP has, in the past. I'm not currently using it, bit when I've seen that behavior it was with ADW. I think the easiest solution is to try out one or two widgets on another launcher.

here is my screen ImageShack® - Online Photo and Video Hosting
why 2 widgets are ok?

 

[carlo67]

why there is backup and restore options?

 

[carlo67]

does anybody knows

 

[chanchan05]

We're not developers of the app, but it was already stated that this is a known behavior on ADW, where some widgets just not work well with it. Basically the reason why I don't use ADW.

 

[carlo67]

guess what the GO Launcher EX got the backup and restore options and I tried GO Launcher EX and I tried the backup and restore options.I made widget on home screen and made a backup settings and than I deleted widget off home screen and I tried restore it I am getting same thing [problem loading with widget] lol geez

 

[carlo67]

this is really stupid.
have anybody know how to fix it?

 

[Dual2thecore]

I just deleted the widget, replaced them, & it worked perfectly fine.
Make sure you delete them from your screen.

 

[carlo67]

did you deleted or restored ?

I got adw backup .I can't restore

 

[Dual2thecore]

I deleted the widgets from my screen, & replaced them.
I didn't need to backup anything.

-long touch widget, delete.
-long touch on screen, add widgets.
Simple as that for me.

 

[carlo67]

I had lot of widgets on screen I have 4 screens.
I got adw backup .I can't restore
