My xda premium app keeps disappearing for some reason maybe its AT&T uninstalling it. Is anyone else having the same issue? I'm currently on non rooted stock rom.

Lol no att is not uninstalling it. By ut keeps disapearing what exactly do u mean you know there is more then 1 home screen right? Is it possible it on one of your other home screens? Did u open the app drawer and scroll through your apps and not see it as well?
I've had this happen myself the past few days ever since I started messing around with some roms. For me, I'd go to click on the app shortcut and it would say it doesn't exist. I'd have to go back into Market and reinstall. Very odd issue and its happened around 3 times.
The last time it happened was when I went back to stock like I am now. I am still rooted though.

Nope. Just had this issue pop up again after I did a nand restore from stock. I couldn't access the app, it no longer showed anywhere on the phone (/system/app, Applications, etc.) and yet the Market showed it was installed. I ended up having to install the free app and then uninstall that to then reinstall the premium one.
Not had an issue like this with any other app.

Anyone know how to take the at&t widgets off the widget list? Im on a Captivate rooted, (oclf) and have root explorer (if that matters).
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
You can use root explorer to delete the files associated with them or titanium backup will also remove system apks. Just be sure you know what the names are, some can be quite cryptic.
The files are in system/app directory but some apps also have other files associated with them.
Titanium backup has a feature where you can freeze them which essentially disables them and you can defrost thus reenabling should you find you made an error or change your mind.

I've tried TB, but for some reason, it slowed my phone down. I can try it again. When they are froze, will that eliminate them from the widget list?

No problems with freezing at all. Its a quick process and defrosting is just as quick

So as soon as you hit "freeze" it does its thing, then you can choose the next app? Maybe I should haver restarted my phone or something after untangling TB.

Hey there,
If you happen to be running Launcher Pro, you can hit Menu - Preferences - General Settings - Hidden Apps. Here you can check what you don't want to see in your apps list.
As far as Titanium Backup goes, I've never tried the Freeze option - I've just deleted what I didn't want (as long as I knew what it was!)
Hope this helps!

Yeah that helped I been hiding that apps with LP, but I figured everything out using TB. I just went ahead and bought it. Thanx everyone for your input!

You can also get autostarts and disable the widgets from starting.
has anyone been having issues after rooting using one click root? I've tried Touch Wiz, ADW and Launcher Pro. My widgets will all of a sudden say not avaible and disapear from the widget list.. also, the phone will randomly restart.

My vote is That the file system is rfs and that is the culprit. However rumor has it that supercurio is working on a lag fix. I. Have no proof of this. Just an uneducated guess

As usual check to make sure what storage the app is installed on. I am having some issue with my Audiogalaxy widget personally. I never told it to do so, but it installed the app on my internal "memory card" as opposed to on the phone. Move it if you have to.
Try restart after that, and if it still isn't working, try removing and reinstalling.
(I'm beginning to suspect some widgets I am used to may be gingerbread only)
Yeah gtasks is deleting itself and also my videos and mp3s randomly stop working.

well he tweeted it. he didnt say in progress, he simply said he was looking through the infuse source code... and then said the infuse would get the voodoo treatment. first sound, then lagfix. dont expect it this week or next. or even next month. it might come that fast but it might not. he got a sgs2 and may be sidetracked with that, also he is heavily involved with new stuff for voodoo sound, maybe we will get squeezed in to this next voodoo sound release, maybe the one after.
is anyone who is having trouble using apps to sd? that is known to cause disapearing widgets. the sgs's have ample storage for apps. i dont know why people insist on moving them to the sd. maybe they have a fast sd card but the phone doesnt need much. embedded os is kinda designed to do minimal i/o.
I had the same issues with widgets deleting. I had to uninstall and reinstall from market to get the going again.
I should have said this first, my issues only started after rooting. But then again I only had the phone for about 10 mins before rooting it.
got rid of it already though as I have an sgs2 on the way.

odd. I have had zero problems with the phone. no reboots. no widget problems.
i have added/deleted many... including evernote.
no problems.
rooted.
No issues with force closing, but I have had quite a bit of disappearing Widgets. Grooveshark and audible from the same panel in go launcher. I haven't done root or anything.
Can I admit that my love of this phone maybe more than just a man's love for a device.

I had the same problem of Widgets Disappearing, mainly after reboots.
In my case, the culprit was that the applications were automatically installed in the Internal SD (16gb one) of the phone instead of its flash memory... The end result was that when the phone booted up, looked for the widgets /before/ it had finished mounting and scanning the Internal & External SDs, causing the OS to simply removing the Widgets since it could no longer find them.
Try checking on Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> <Problematic App / Widget> (And if available) -> Move to Phone
Reboot and they should stop disappearing.
This totally works. Using go launcher and unrooted Infuse 4G. Both Grooveshark and audible widgets now stay active in the widgets menu.

I know that you said that you cleared the cache, but did you "clear data" as well? I think this is what I did last time mine acted up.
same issue here, I never use the market to look for an app updates anymore instead I tried to use App Update Notifier and it works just fine.

Clear data then restart the phone. This has fixed every market issue I've had yet.

Used the SGS tool script to reset the market and now its working fine again. Thanks for the suggestions everyone
this happens to me all the time... idk why
Have you tried downloading a small free app from the market? You can uninstall it right after, to see if it works. Whenever I flash a new ROM and restore apps with TiBu, the market doesn't see my restored apps. But, when I download a new app, the market then recognizes my restored ones. It's worth a shot and will only take a minute.
Edit: Sorry, didn't see you found out already, you're way is probably better too. >.<

A lot of things rely on then to function. Freezing isn't the same; I freeze Wifi Calling with no issues but when I try to uninstall it I get constant force closes every second until I do a battery pull, and that's on a bit of propriety software! I sincerely doubt letting Messaging or the like exist is hurting you enough to warrant risking potently annoying problems

Those apps are tied to android system dunno why it wont give fc on freeze since its almost the same as uninstalling them. But ya if you did delete those you would get tons of fc on startup and be forced to do a battery pull and reflash rom or backup.

Because you also need to delete the corresponding .so file in the lib folder.

If you are on a stock rom and delete system apps you can never install any future OTA updates. The updates check all system files first and make sure they are unchanged. If you freeze apps you just defrost them before installing an OTA. If you deleted them then no chance of OTA update, period. If you are not on a stock rom then it doesn't matter. You might wind up with a continuous force close issue that requires reflashing the rom.

I got rid of stock browser and tmobile stuff off of my phone and didn't receive FC's.
The downside ro this is if you remove the browser or anything when you do a hard reset it won't be there so you have to rely on a back up and be careful what you unistall.
I learned that the hard way when i first started with android. I unistalled swype since i use SwiftKey but did a hard reset to clear everything out and well i couldn't log in to my google account at the beginning because there was no virtual keyboard to use.

Yea I've had the same problem. Some people are able to freeze it but I've tried on my last s3 and this replacement one. It'll freeze then as soon as I restart there defrosted. Its weird.
Tap'n
Same problem here, I even tried disabling them on another non rooted phone.
I can't imagine any problems from uninstalling them, but I just got used to freezing them on reboot or just leaving them alone.
Glad I'm not the only one having this issue.
