Everything on home screens disappear only wallpaper on screen

[superman2k2]

Hello im have a problem where all my apps,shortcuts and UI randomly disappear or my screen and the only thing left is my wallpaper. The only way i resolve it is to go to settings/apps/launcher and force close it. It restarts but its just a temp fix cause randomly it happens again. I have tried Multiple Flexreaper,Thor, and Cm9 roms Multiple bootloaders and Kernals but it always comes back. I ALWAYS do a full wipe (by wiping everything even data) but after a while it comes back. Anyone know how to fix it or Any info would be great thanks

I can't help with a fix, but I can confirm that you are not the only one with this issue. I have three Acer tabs, One that's stock ICS A500 no root, one A500 with V3 bootloader and Flexreaper, and one stock rooted ICS with the V8 bootloader. All three do this same thing. The only way that I can get rid of the issue is to downgrade to the Honeycomb bootloader. If it was any more annoying I would go back to the Honeycomb bootloader and pretend to be a chicken while enjoying my nice solid user experience. I'm not sure how Acer bugged it up on this one. But as far as I can tell, it is an Acer ICS bootloader problem that carries over even if the bootloader is patched.

I've been trying to find a solution. So far, other than changing back to HCBL, nothing has worked. It's too bad that one of the Dev's can't see a tablet with this issue. Those guys can fix about anything...

Thak you for the info. Its good to know Im not the only one who has this problem. Do you think CM10 will fix it since its Jellybean?

I never experienced that issue...until I moved to Jelly Bean. It happened all the time on the first alpha port, but the latest cm10 is OK. I hasn't happen since. What launcher are you using?

 

[JdgM3NT4L]

I've tried a ton of launchers and it happens on them all. Also, it happens less frequently if I don't have a email widget on a home screen.

I'v also tried alot of launchers and they all do the same. Thanks for the email widget tip

Has there been any new developments on this issue and how to fix it?

I'm on hc bootloader and never have that problem. I am fully capable of flashing ICS bootloader, but have no interest in doing so. I see no clear advantage and hear nothing but problems. I'm running the newest TO Jelly Bean and it is practically flawless. Call me a chicken if you like, but I'm a happy chicken with a sweet tablet

It happens to me all the time with all the launchers I 've tried. I am in unlocked ics bootloader and stock rom. The same happened with the locked bootloader. I tried the CM10 Rom same results. I removed all widgets from the homescreen with no luck.
If it's in the ICS Bootloader then all must have the same problem or not?

Any solution except going back to 3.2?

To fix it I had to go full stock to Honey Comb then reinstall CWM then install Thor cm v15 and no problems since. I think the problem is the ICS bootloader
