Just discovered a very annoying bug with this new OTA update. I've had it for about an hour, and everything else has been good except for this.
With the lockscreen, my first shortcut icon (Phone Dialer) suddenly disappeared. I have no clue how to get it back.
When I try to re-assign it as a shortcut, it doesn't appear on the shortcuts menu.
I'm 1,000% positive that I did not erase the dialer icon in the lockscreen edit menu.
Anyways, this is just a heads up for some of you TmoUSA people who just got the OTA update.
And if anybody has any suggestions on how to prevent/fix this, or get back my phone dialer shortcut, I'd really appreciate it.
I got the phone dialer and it did not disappear from lock screen after the update.
I think this may be an isolated incident. But wow none the less. I would suggest a wipe brother.
Wow, that sucks to know that it's just me
Not that I would wish this problem on any of you, just kinda bothers me because I factory-resetted just yesterday
It's not just you. I still have the phone on my first button of the lock screen, but if I go to edit the lockscreen buttons, the first one is now blank, and Phone is not an option in the list of available apps to assign.
As long as I don't change it, it's good...
The EVO 3D had this problem with 2.3.3 at launch. HTC sent out a minor update to fix. Expect a minor update in the near future.
I wonder if I should just install a phone dialer app from the market and see if that can be a workaround.
What do you guys think?

If you save any changes from that screen you'll lose the icon.
Really, yikes. I think I like the 4 I have there now so I'll leave it alone for the time being.
1st - Web
2nd - Phone
3rd - Gmail
4th - Messages
With all these issues I'm seeing I think ima just stick to leedroid or stock rooted. I'm playing around on my myTouch before I sale it.
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using XDA Premium App
I just got the update and yes, while I still have the Phone icon on my lockscreen, if I go to the Settings page for the screen the position is blank and "Phone" isn't an option in the list of programs to launch.
It looks like birgertime's work-around may be what you need, until HTC (hopefully) releases a fix for this.
In the mean time, I'm not going to change my lockscreen icons (not that I frequently do anyway).
Not just you. Same thing happened to me. Just got the update today.

i had the same issue, the phone (dialer) missing from menu and lock screen. I downloaded the shortcut from the link above and it worked. Thanx for the shortcut.
I just got the update and I don't have any issues with my lock screen. maybe try to change in your lock screen htc gives us like 6 to choose from 'm using the 1 that shows status updates from facebook and such.
also my wifi is working a lot better I still lose signal when I grip it in landscape mode but it doesn't lose signal completely and I can still use wi-fi even in landscape mode holding it with both hands
The workaround works great! Thanks for the help, everybody.
I was just reading this thread when I noticed that I had the same bug after changing the lockscreen icons. Will flashing a ROM over the update help?

you cant post 3 threads within 30mins and expect them to get answered very quickly. you can only wait my friend. as for your problem. i would just recommend getting a new launcher they will most likely have the option to disable it.

i think you are facing this problem bcz you dint remove the screen guard that came with the phone just remove it and your problem will be solved
Since I'm not facing any issues at all.
I think the themes are causing the problem, you might be using a theme that changes the incoming phone thingy UI.
Try setting the default theme and test and report here
Thanks for reply...
My problem is whenever some one calling me m not able to see it, only ringtone ringing only .. But could not pickup screen apper.. Only Lock screen and light turn on.

I did 'clean' install of 71 and best rom so far for me.
(clean being flashing the recovery image and cleaning caches and factory reset. )

There is a method someone posted somewhere on this forum on how to restore the navbar autohide feature, but you have to be rooted to do it. I just un-rooted my
phone after updating to 571 and doing the navbar autohide thing. its very easy unrooting your phone if you dont want to be rooted.

I would remove the last app you installed prior to this issue appearing. This is usually related to a bad app. If that doesn't work, try running a malware or virus scan to see if what is messing around with things on your phone..
