Home screen internet shortcuts losing their icon - General Questions and Answers

Whenever I restart my phone (Note8/Android 7.1.1/Nova Launcher), the icon of an internet shortcut on my home screen changes to the default Android icon. I think it also happens if I change resolution too. I've attached screenshots if my description isn't clear. The problem icon is the one second from left.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
My S8+ didn't do this. Both running Nova Launcher. Can't test my S8 though seeing it's smashed and gone to phone heaven.
The standard touchwiz launcher doesn't have this problem, so it seems to be a nova launcher thing.
I've searched but can't seem to find anyone else with this problem.

[MOD REQ] Launcher2 with more screens

As the title indicates, I was wondering if someone could possibly edit/mod the Launcher2.apk found in CM 5.0.6 to add more home screens preferably 7 if not more. I'm sure there are other people that would like this feature but I dont not know how to do it otherwise I would.
And YES I know about HelixLauncher2 but I do not like that launcher because it does not have the 5 column tray and seems to not fling through the app list as fast as Launcher2 from CM. Although it does have the short cuts which is nice but I dont like how it does not have the dots to show which screen you are on.
Here are 2 ways I've found from other Launchers that you could incorporate the addition of more home screens.

[LAUNCHER] Dell Stage UI for Nexus One

Just tried it, not as smooth as stock, but fun to play with. Don't know when it became available, but it wasn't posted here.
Don't need to flash anything, just install "Stage Launcher" first and then all of the widgets. Acts as a second launcher, comes with new wallpapers too.

Where are the Pics?
They're there.
Couldn't log in to facebook n setup email....anybody having the same problem?
Yea, same problem. This launcher isn't designed for phones (its for Dell Streak), so that might explain why its not working. I'm not sure if someone on here can fix it. If you like the launcher enough, you can just add normal Facebook and Email widgets.

Can't figure out how to remove spacing with Apex Launcher

Hopefully this is the right forum. I wasn't sure where to put this thread,.
The Nexus 4 has been my first Android phone. Now that I've had about a month to get used to Android, I decided it was time to start having fun with it. I installed UCCW and Apex Launcher and I've been teaching myself how to use them.
I came across this homescreen, and I'm trying to base my own homescreen off of it:
http://mycolorscreen.com/2013/02/25/ubuntu-touch/
So far, this is what I've come up with:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
My question is, how do I remove the margin/spacing between widgets? In the picture above, it's most noticeable between the "Notifications" title and the weather. I really haven't figured out spacing at all. Changing my homescreen grid to 10x6 helped, but it still isn't quite what I need.

[Q] Icon packs in Nova, Apex etc.

Hello.
Does anyone here use icon packs in Nova, Apex etc.?
I'm asking because I have a problem on our M2.
So, icons seem to be fuzzy, I mean they have "sketchy" edges. I tried multiple launchers and multiple icon packs and the problem persists.
Here, some screens about what I'm talking:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
You see on the screenshots that icon edges are pixelated.
I talked to some icon pack developers and they say that this might be because of M2's pixel density. So, could anyone explain what causes this?
Any help is appreciated.
Cheers :good:

What is this icon on my notification bar?

I'm trying to figure out what icon is this?
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
More information why I want to know this - I am a huge Loco (a HQtrivia like game) and it was working absolutely fine till the morning, now when I open the app - it goes to pitch black, nothing happens, but that icon appears on the notification bar. I have tried out 4-5 old apks nothing. The app is working on my old Redmi device, other Asus and Google devices and saw no remarks from anyone else.
All other apps seem to work quite fine until now.
