Missing programs' shortcuts after each reboot on stock 4.2.2 - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

Hi, my problem is that shortcuts of programs placed on home and other screens, installed not in phones' internal memory, disappear after each reboot (these programs are still installed and I can return shortcuts to the screens).
This problem has appeared after stock 4.2.2 update.
Can somebody advise how to solve this?

Yeah, the shortcut for the XDA app disappears whenever I reboot. Just that one AFAIK. Weird.

Home page apps

I've been having a problem with app short cuts on the home screens. They disappear when I have moved the app to the sd. I'm running leaked froyo and was wondering if anyone has the same problems and any solutions.

missing app icon

i wonder if anyone has this problem. Android creates a shortcut whenever I move the app from app drawer to the desktop. however, for some reasons, some of the app shortcuts are gone! they are replaced with default android icons...
I can fix this problem by deleting this default icon and drag the app from app drawer to the desktop again. but the same problem comes back after i restart the phone... what's going on?
Are you using stock sense or an alternative launcher?

Hello, I have the very same problem (on top of the touch screen issues and rainbow artifacts on some widgets...).
What I do is that after reboot I switch the scene to an empty one, load it and then come back to the sense scene where all my icons are (personalize, scene, apply). It works for me.

yeah it's a sense problem. It tries to load the icons when the SD card is not mounted yet and doesn't retry later.
You have to make sense reload. Changing the theme does that. Dis- or enabling any htc widget with titanium backup causes a sense reload as well.
Thanks for the solution.I was also having the same problem...

Yep. I got it with Desktop Visualizer (use it for renaming apps with long names e.g Dolphin Browser HD). I found out it's because the app is installed on SD.

Missing App Icons

I'm running MW r1 and I noticed that some of my installed apps are no longer appearing on my apps list. I would have to go into the playstore and launch the app from there.
Is anyone else experiencing the same issue? And can this be resolved?

Try moving apps from SD to phone.

4.2 Playstore

How do you access the settings tab in th playstore in 10.1?in sense you can press the recent apps button on 10.1. I can not figure it out.

You need to map one of your hardware keys to bring up the menu; it's not set up by default. Settings-System-Hardware keys.

Camera app disappeared

Hi, I'm new in this forum and also I'm a new android user. I got this phone yesterday and it came with the 4.1.2 update, it is working fine and all, but today something strange happened, my phone freezes up while I was watching a video, it rebooted itself and then, the camera app was gone, and the gallery app also seems to have disappeared, although they both appear on the settings/apps menu. I would like to know what can I do to solve this, please as I don't understand this system well.

Are you using a custom launcher? Most custom launches have the ability to hide apps in the app drawer. Check in the launcher settings for an unhide option.

Go to the app menu where you see the apps. Touch and hold your finger on the app for a second or 2 that you want back on one of your home pages. The home pages should show up and simply drag the app where ever you want it. Move your apps around like this and you can change the apps on the bar on the bottom of the screen the same way.

Thank you for the suggestion but it didn't work out. Unfortunately, I didn't had any other choice but to factory reset my device and now I have the camera back, but thank you for the fast answer!
