I searched a bunch of threads and I can't seem to find the answer to this...

Just did the OTA on my sister's phone, and after restarting all of the HTC widgets (clock, weather, calendar, etc) are gone. They don't even show up in the list to add to the home screens.

I thought I read somewhere that there is a way to fix it quickly... clearing a cache, or re-syncing something, I dunno... I don't remember what thread it was in, or what it was exactly... searching has proven unsuccessful.

I really don't want to do the factory reset because of having to re-download all of the apps.

Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

 

Thanks. I remember reading about app backups that reinstall them, but don't link them to the market (so they don't get updates). I'll grab Astro... is there an option for the method you suggested? Or something special I need to do? Downloading now, but it's taking forever (crappy signal here).

EDIT: Nevermind. I went through with the factory reset after doing the backup with ASTRO. After the restore, I got ASTRO again and went to the "backed up" app section... I think it just stored them all on the SD card. It will install them, but they don't show up in the Market... so I'm assuming they won't get the updates. I told her to just use the backup as a list, and just manually search for them in the market. Disappointing, but there is no other option...
