HD2 Android 2.2.1 How can I remove message from home screen? - Android Apps and Games

I had installed a cool weather/clock widget the other day, and it was working perfectly. All of a sudden, I have this message on my home screen:
"Problem loading widget". I can't find any way to remove this message.
The widget is no longer on the list of my loaded programs or widgets, and strangely I cannot seem to find it on the market. It's as though some update decide to remove it, but the bootup loader is still looking for it.
Ideas?
HD2 running 2.2.1 CleanDroidv1.11, Kernel 2.6.32.15
Baseband 15.42.50.11H_2.15.50.14
Thanks for any assistance.

Edited post to include screen shot
Here's a screenshot of my problem, taken with "shootme", an outstanding and simple-to-use screen capture app for Android.

uninstall and installl this app

I would if I could. When this first happened, I tried what you said, but the app had seemed to disappear into thin air -- off my HD2 AND off the Android Market. I'll keep trying. Thanks for the suggestion. I appreciate your reply.

This happens to me too when i move widgets or home items to the sdcard.
The sdcard ins't mounted quickly so it fails to load the home app.
Try moving it to phone storage.

froyo 3d gallary portd for android 2.1

hi guys.i am new to xda.but I brought an gift to all the people who are using android 2.1 aka eclair.if you like the gallary in froyo there is a perfect way to use it on eclair.i ported the 3d gallary in froyo to eclair.but theres a main point to remember it works only if ur mobile supports multi touch otherwise it will be just like 3d gallary on 2.1.
you can follow me on twitter at wiineeth
all of you can download my app from the website given below and enjoy froyo gallary

doesn't work... tried to install and got message "application not installed". I'm using HTC Hero.
This gallery is not from Froyo, it is a dump from Nexus One ROM...
btw: run on Desire
it runs on my htc hero (cronos droid 1.7) though the Gallery3d icon isnt showing.
why didn't it worked on ur device.
it worked perfectly on my desire.
sorry in the hurry I didn't kept the icon
THis version of Gallery3D ROCKS! the only thing I personally would like fixed is the Gallery Icon itself. If that can be fixed, this will be the perfect Gallery 3D
Moguledyouth thank you .
I wantedly kept the icon,
because you would be confused between two gallary images will be same
I removed my other version, this is the only one I need, is there any way you could do an alternate version with the correct icon? I use ADW Launcher and with it I can have Icons without labels on my home screens, so the visual image is clutch.
sorry Moguledyouth
I don't have enough time.
I like different.
I don't like to keep icon because every one does.
I would recommend you to use zeam launcher.
you can follow me on twitter at wiineeth.

Working on my acer liquid, only issue is that it keeps saying "loading" "loading albums and photos" even though every image and album has already been loaded.
Hey there,
I tried ur gallery and it working fine on my milestone accept it wont show thumbnails for my videos...anybody know why?
Sent from my Milestone using XDA App
hey guys despite of some bugs I hope all of u liked my app.i noticed that the open home,a home etc., home replacements which changes the icons of apps had recognized my froyo gallary app as the main app and changed the icon of my app.
so if you don't like the icon of my app then you should have open home a home etc .
to get any app for free you can email me

alright then I will just have to try and figure out how to fix it myself, since it's the only thing that's out of place, I wouldn't even mind if say you inverted the gallery pic, but whatever that icon is, it's not a photo / graphics icon at all and that's what really annoys me.

Gallery3D Froyo Port
Ok people, since I personally didn't like the non descript icon for this version of Gallery3D I went about changing it, and for anyone who already has a version of Gallery, I went ahead and inverted the Icon for this one. I think it looks kind of cool, I hope you enjoy this little mod and please thank the original op, who made this possible. Camera does work with this one too. Just push it to /system/app.

sorry Moguledyouth,
it will not work
will not work with evo
Well, it won't install on my Galaxy S . My system partition is write protected, still searching for a way to change the permissions.
Quite new in the android scene, just got my Galaxy S a few days ago . It's rooted and i've installed a new firmware, but i can't wait to get my hands on froyo. Very nice gallery, if it would only install...

Help - App Problem

My rooted wildfire worked fine and just out of nowhere this (see attachments) appears. I have no idea which app this is and I want to remove it. I coveres my screen and is really annoying.
Anyone has an idea which app or what this is it?
That is pretty odd. I'm not familiar with that particular widget. It looks like a System info Widget or something along those lines. There are 2 ways I would attack this, one is just long press on it and drag it over the trash, hold until it asks you if you want to uninstall. This should work if it is an app/widget that has been installed in the /data/app folder. I am not familiar with your phone, but if you are rooted, most likely your launcher has the hold over trash to uninstall option. If your launcher does not have that option, then I would install ADW or Launcher Pro, as they do. If the app/widget in question is installed in the /system/app folder, then it will not generally uninstall in this manner. But, you should at least be presented with the name of it and then you can install Titanium Backup and uninstall it with that app. All of the apps I have mentioned are either free, or have free versions in the Market. Hope this helps.
Well it's not an app or a widget. When I long press it, it justs ask me if I want to add something to the screen as if this thing never existed.
And this thing won't disappear when I'm using apps or doing anything.
edit: my first guess was that Taskpanel is causing this problem but after uninstalling it with titanuim it was still there
help me plz
edit2: found a way to get it off. used the app andoird tweak, setting, advanced setting, show procesor load (or something like that )

Springpad issues

Has anyone else run into issues with Springpad on their Infuse? I cannot get my notes to go to my homescreen and the widgets wont show up in the widget menu. I reinstalled it yesterday and got the widgets to reappear in the widget menu, but when I shut my phone off last night and turned it back on this morning, the widget transformed into a problem, and the Springpad widgets no longer show up in the widget menu. Anyone else have this issue or know how to fix it? Or just have a better replacement?
I use Springpad but do not use the widgets. So I tested it by adding the list view widget and the small one, rebooted and the widgets remain. I am using a custom ROM (Infused) so not sure if that has anything to do with it. If you are looking for a replacement, try Evernote.
There is an easy fix for that. I had the same problem with pandora widget, it would always disapper from widget list after the reboot. Go into settings, applications, manage applications then move the app to phone and reboot. It will never disappear after that.

I am using a custom ROM as well (Refuse 1.6). It could be something with that ROM I suppose; I haven't tried any others for long enough to get to using Springpad.

Yep, that'll do. I had not even thought they were being automatically placed there; don't remember ever setting this. Just noticed that all of my apps are being installed to sd card. I'll check around for how to change it. Thanks!
Edit: Springpad was not among those stored on the SD card, turns out. Widget is working again though. It must have been something else.

[Q] Disable icons from automatically adding to home screen

Alright guys, I have to ask because this is driving me crazy. Is it new to honeycomb or is it an asus add-on that put an icon on the home screen for everything downloaded from the Android Market (Amazon Appstore doesn't do it). I have used ASUS, Launcher Pro, and ADW as my launchers, and they all do it. I keep my default launcher home clean only to be plagued with messages every time I install an app saying "No Room Available On Homescreen" because unwillingly, android is still adding them to each launcher's homescreen even when they're not running.
I've force-closed each while not in use and tested, and they still add. Its driving me crazy, how do I make it stop?
ALso, does anyone else find "Refresh failed" messaging popping up randomly?
In the Market navigate to "my apps" then hit the menu butto in the top right. There should be an option there to add shortcut for new apps, just uncheck it and presto no more annoying shortcuts. As for the refresh, yep I get it every once in a while when my weather tries to update. Haven't figured that one out yet, although I read a thread somewhere that had that fixed. Don't quote me on that as I have been busy with my Evo 3D the last few days and haven't kept up here.
Ohhh man thank you so much. I'd gone through the menu in Market before, but didn't think they'd change it up under my apps!
No worries, glad to help

[Q] Widgets gone upon deleting temporary HTC files

I have the stock HTC ICS ROM on the Desire S. I was trying to free up some space from the SD card, and deleted the "Temporary files from HTC apps", which was amounting to more than 2 GB. After that the widgets are no more there in the Personalization menu, neither are app shortcuts. The widgets that are already added to some screens are still working, so I suppose they aren't actually deleted, but if I remove a widget I can't get it back.
There is also a horrible lag to display the home screen when exiting from an app, or even pressing the home button.
What could be the problem?

Firstly, the Stock ICS ROM is awful - it was released more for developers than for daily use.
Secondly, if you insist on using it, then reflash and don't delete files unless you understand what you are deleting and what the damage could be.
