[Q] Soundhound: No Icon After Install? - HTC One S

After installing Soundhound, does anyone have the issue where there is no icon in the app menu/drawer? Thanks.

There is something massively wrong with sense 4.0 Plenty of apps are missing icons including Tunein Radio, mirror and others...

I dont know what you guys are talksng about. I updated soundhound today and the icon is still there.
I have never ever had s problem with icons disappearing on sense 4.0

Same here, although I can access soundhound and tunein from the music app...

Never had this issue.
My Soundhound Icon is here sitting on my apps menu.
Just wondering... Do you have your apps menu to show All apps?

Mine is still there, however the girlfriends is having that issue...
*Edit1* Did some digging, there are more apps having this same issue. Mounted to the computer and found some files in .android_secure, turns out it's the missing ones. Funny thing happened while I was typing this out, HTC actually called me regarding another issue I have been dealing with and I informed them of this issue as well. He tested and saw what we see. He'll be getting back to me tomorrow on both issues. I'll update once I know more.
*Edit2* Uninstall soundhound, and reinstall from the market. This will automatically create a new icon on your home screen, but it still won't show up in the app drawer. Good temp fix. Also, using the built-in google search widget you can find your installed apps that don't show up, including Tune In Radio, which I have never seen in the app drawer.

Same issue here. The icon for tunein radio disappeared out of the blue from the home screen and the list of all installed apps. The only way to get to it is through "settings- apps- all".

*Update*
HTC Called me back last night. They are still running tests and will be working on this all week. They plan on contacting me back by/on Friday evening. They are also testing the calender notification issues.

Wow- please keep us updated. Thanks!

I think the OP is referring to the downloadable HTC widgets such as battery widget, etc. These will not install from the Market nor do they show up when clicking to download from the widget list to add to home. I too, would like to know a work around to install (not a different widget on the Market) because I really miss the HTC battery widget.

Oh, shoot my bad.
For some reason, the Download new HTC widgets button worked on my v2.0 rom. It showed the downloadable ones and worked on the HS

I think the widget isn't installing because it isn't an official ROM, but that is just a guess.
Could be part of the problem. However, it did install on the Eris based 2.1 roms which had very different frameworks than the Sprint based 2.1 roms. I believe that is the real problem. The Eris roms were more like the Sprint 1.5 roms framework wise.
Just wondering if anyone's found a fix for this? I miss my battery widget lol
still waiting for this myself. hopefully it will work with the release keys

list of apps you can safely delete from captivate once rooted

hey guys, i'm going to be picking up my captivate in a few days and i plan on rooting/deleting the att "bloatware" asap. based on the preloaded files that are listed on the engadget review (see http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/ samsung-galaxy-s-review- shootout-captivate-for-atandt-and-vibrant/), is it safe to delete the following files?
ATT preloaded
ATT family map
ATT hot spots
ATT maps
ATT music
ATT navigator
ATT radio
instant messaging
mobile banking
mobile video
Where
YPmobile
Samsung preloaded
Daily briefing
My files - replace with Astro file manager
Media hub
Mini diary
Memo
MobiTV
Video Player - my understanding is you can play videos directly from stock gallery app
Write and Go
Voice Recorder
Voice Search - is this the same as google's own voice search?
Also for keyboards, can we delete the built in samsung keyboard? I've played around with both the samsung and stock one and there's really no difference, however swype is amazing.
thanks for all help. you guys are the reason why android is so awesome.
One of the threads around here had some guy running into problems when he deleted that Where app. Maybe it was because he deleted other things to I'm not sure, but I would like to see an official list before I completely strip out all of the unnecessary junk.

There's a post here with apps that are safe to remove - I'm sure more could be removed but I don't know which off the top of my head.

After I removed 'daily briefing' from the list of apps, when I slide the homescreen over to the left where daily briefing used to be, it gives a "problem loading widget" screen. Can another widget be put in its place?

Of course. Just hold-click the widget and throw it in the trash can that pops up. Then hold-click the desktop and add whichever widget you like from the list. The uninstall just didn't remove the widget reference.
Never mind, I figured out what I needed to do, but couldn't go back and delete my post. Thanks for your help, though.

Yes, just drag that widget to the trash.
And I never had any problems either after deleting the Where app.

[Q] Widget Issues? (Disappearance)

Ive been using the tasks widget from HTC and got a notification that there was an update for it through the htc hub. When I went to the hub to update it, it would not download and install the update correctly. It would say its installing when it was at only 56%?? Or sometimes even less then that and then the download would just disappear. So I thought maybe i should uninstall and reinstall the widget. Once I did it has never been able to fully download and install again. What should I do? And ive tried other task widgets on the android market and nothing else really looks as good or is over complicated for something so simple.
HTC Sense is crap. It tells me updates are available for widgets, yet won't let me update them. It also won't let me download any new ones. My Friends stream no longer auto updates. It has never properly synced my contacts. There is usually one or two missing or a pic is wrong for one or two.

I removed them from my phone. Weather/clock app is buggy on some ROMS. ie; half the clock would vanish, freezing when updating weather.
Currently use WF & Clock widget. (free version) No issues. (although not quite as good looking)
it freeze too for me i think everyone have this problem
it doesnt freezes for me but skins download list wont show up, when i try downloading skins from web it gives me error that skin is corrupted.
If you're pirating it, it should freeze. Just spend the $2-3 bucks on it if you want it. I've never had any issues with mine, but I paid for it. Older, pirate-able versions don't work with the skin downloaded properly, since changes have been made in more recent versions.
Aww okay thanks guys. Glad it want just me

downloading skins
I was truckin along just fine downloading all the skins, I got all the battery and super clocks downloaded but when I got to the clock skins my CPU goes to 100%, phone says downloading but it just stays there, no longer getting the little "skin downloaded" pop up and the cpu stays at 100%
Any ideas????

[Q] Disappearance of icons?

Is it normal for some icons to not appear in the App drawer or is it just me and a buggy ROM?
e.g. Peeps, FM Radio, Downloads, Quick Lookup
I'm on Undead's stock optimized 1.28.531.10
I remember there was a problem with the DROID Incredible 2 from Verizon with icon disappearing as well, mostly it was the clock app but your issue sounds similar.

Yeah that's very odd. Although of the ones listed, I don't remember seeing Downloads or Quick Lookup (I only know they exist after having been on VU, I might be wrong) but I do remember seeing Peeps and FM Radio before. Also none of them have been moved on SD.
One thing I noticed is that the Calendar widget would also disappear when the Bookmark widget is frozen, which leads me to believe that the removal of some apps would lead to the malfunction of others, although all of the ones i listed do still work, just without icons. Not that i care very much about those, just pure nuisance.
Update:
Found out why..It's the Rosie launcher..Somehow something was done to cause this. Tried several other launchers and was able to see all of the icons. Imma let him know.
