Beautiful Widgets Settings File Bug In Froyo

I upgraded my Captivate to Froyo and now Beautiful Widgets loses all it's settings and skins everytime I reboot my phone. The developer is aware of this and says there's a way for root users to fix the problem. He said the fix is posted somewhere here on XDA but I can't find it. Can anyone help me out? Thanks.

strange, i never had that problem?
do u have root?

Weird, I've been running Froyo since the early leaks in November and never had that problem.

Me either. Not once.

I had the same issue some months ago...couldn't get settings to stick and lost all skins when rebooted. Never could find out why but after about 3 weeks and numerous custom roms it finally went away.

I had this issue when I flashed Perception, and ended up emailing the dev about it because I couldn't figure it out. At the time, they said it was an issue with Galaxy S phones and they hadn't found a solution.
What fixed it for me was this: I cleared app data and cache for Beautiful Widgets from the applications manager, then uninstalled. I then rebooted into CWM and cleared the Dalvik cache. Finally, I reinstalled the app from the market, and have had no problems since then.
The developer mentions on the market page for Beautiful Widgets that a fix is available here on XDA for root users, but I haven't looked into that. Otherwise, they suggest a factory reset of the phone. It's a very annoying problem. I hope you get it fixed one way or another.

No issue for me ever, but I'm on custom roms.

Running great here ..

I had thought my weather skins disappeared too, but I noticed that when I re-installed a couple of skins, they saved to a folder called data/beautifulwidgets/skins. But there's another folder on my phone called sdcard/data/beautifulwidgets/cache which has files related to my clock and weather skins that I've downloaded before. Not really sure how to fix it though.

I can report the same issue on a i9000. Someone found the solution for root users here yet?

Like I said, try this first: Clear data, uninstall, clear Dalvik cache from CWM, reinstall from Market (not from a backup).
This worked for me. I don't know where the fix is referenced by the app developer. I am not able to search XDA using either the app or the website from my phone, otherwise I'd try to find it.

I can say that the problem happens very infrequently for me. About once in the last week. My solution so far has been to backup all my skins and settings to another folder and whenever they disappear I just copy them back into place. It's minor annoyance for me at this point but hopefully the dev will find a permanent solution.

I had the same problem. Finally I can fix the bug.
This is for root users.
With "Root Explorer" app go to this location:
/dbdata/databases/
Then looking for com.levelup.beautifulwidgets folder. Delete this folder (com.levelup.beautifulwidgets). Reinstall the app (from market or apk, I reinstaled from apk).
Now the app shoulds work fine.

Try posting in the correct forum, this has nothing to do with development.

when flashing ROMs, do you do clean installs? that is wipe cache, dalvik and data before flashing? if this doesn't work, you may have to wipe your device/ format your sdcard before flashing a new ROM, but that's a pretty drastic solution.

Manage Apps > Download Manager > Clear Data
or if that doesn't work:
Manage Apps > Downloads > Clear Data

thanks
i have found the solution. i still don`t know why i could open ******* site on miui roms but yesterday after installing all my programs with titanium i could not go to to ******* even with miui rom. so i looked to a app called adaway and uninstall it. and i coulg go again to ******* that little program is great to avoid adds on games and programs, but also forbiddens lots of sites(i didn`t know that). Thanks a lot for your help. if i can help in anything just say

[Q] ICE DS 4.3 Google Play search not working

Hi,
I'm currently using ICE DS 4.3 ROM and I've noticed I can only search for the terms that appear as search tips. Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks

If i am not mistaken only items that is compatible with the DS will appear. What were u trying to search for?
As for you camera issue u posted in dev section, i dun have such issue, try going to apps and force close it and clear data. if not try wiping delvik and cache. not sure if it helps.
But if u wan try a clean install.

I tried what you suggested and the problem seems to be gone. Thanks!
What I had in mind with the Play Search is that I cannot perform custom text search - I cannot, for example, search for SearchMarket as it isn't shown in the search tips that appear as you type.

[Q] white settings menu

Hi guys, been using this great phone.for.2 months already. Used a couple of roms in the past but returned to rooted, locked bootloader stock rom with the latest update. I just had a question is it possible to make the settings menu white witout being deodexed? Or at least without modification of system files. Please.note I do not have any sort of recovery installed. Just rooted so I can use greenify and Uninstal bloatware. I really like the white menu, been searching and only foind it in custom.roms. anyway I can do that on stock? thanks in advance. I've decided to.use.stock as I could.find lots.of.bugs.on the.custom roms. Aand.I really like the stock ui. ANY advice?

Hey mate, sorry to inform you but I think you have to deodex. However I think there is another way, I understand you prefer clean stock rom, I can't unlock my bootloader and it is indeed the fastest rom do the following, search on the themes and apps for Honami white settings and you will find a port that even has cpu control.
Go to your apps folder (use root Explorer); delete your settings and settings.odex, and now copy the files you downloaded from the port and copy them with correct permissions. Then reboot and I think you are all done. Also search for an app or way do delete your cache, including dalvik so you avoid errors. I'm thinking about doing this myself so try it and tell me if something went wrong so I can help
