Are the apps stored on the sd card
?

If they are move then back to internal storage, there is plenty on this device do shouldn't be a problem, if not pass

Well I assume it's a bug as I also had this problem, but with this device there is loads of internal memory, so no real need to locate any applications on the sd card, unless they are massive.

Ive sent the inquiry to htc, regarding this matter and this is their reply, as expected the support is really good, ... But i dont want to uninstall my apps, specially games.. sad though



Dear mario,

Thanks for contacting HTC. We understand your concern. We are more than glad to assist you on this matter. For you query you have mentioned that you’re having a problem with the shortcut display image of the application on your home screen. If that specific application is installed on your SD card please do not worry because your HTC Desire S is still reading your SD card. It seems that you installed too many Applications on your SD card and I would advise you to uninstall 3rd party Application that you do not frequently used. To remove 3rd party Application please do the following steps: 1. from Home Screen Tap Menu 2. Settings>Application 3. Manage Application 4. Choose Specific Application you want to uninstall We advise you to please soft reset your phone. To soft reset please do the following steps: 1. Please turn off your phone. 2. Remove the back cover. 3. Take the battery out and let it rest for 10 seconds. 4. Reset the battery and then turn on your phone. Should you need further assistance, please feel free to share your preferred contact schedule with us as we would be more than happy to contact you directly over the phone for assistance.


Sincerely,

Andrew

HT
