Missing Icons on Start Menu after reset

I have a new 8925 (Tilt) and have the following problem when I reset the device, either by the reset button or Powering down, The icons for the programs I have checked to appear in the start menu are blank until I go to start->settings->menus and uncheck then re-check one of the affected icons. Then all the icons are back to normal.
It is only the icons that are affected. The links work correctly and do launch the programs.
The icons in the recently used area are unaffected and remain correct. I am not switching out SD cards and I have tried uninstalling all today plugins that may be affecting it.
Is anyone else having this problem? I am suspecting that my Tilt is initializing before the SD card and creating this problem. Any suggestions?

Any of the effected programs run from the SD card?

Yes. It is all the the programs that are installed on the SD card.

Same issue with Start Menu icons disapearring for programs stored on microSD card. Could it have something to do with the Kaiser moving the shortcut files from the Programs, folder when you assign it to Start Menu???

I tried creating my own shortcuts under windows with the same results. So you are saying you are having the same problem?
I am just curious what type of SD card are you using?
I am using a Sandisk 1GB Ultra II microSD.

Application Icons from Storage Card do not appear correctly

I have a weird problem with my kaiser. I have my navigation applications e.g. Garmin Que, Mapking installed in my Storage Card.
Then in the Menu, I have those applications as shortcuts. The problem is, the icons of those application do not appear correctly in the Windows Start->Menu list. They appear as unknown application.
what cause the problem? is it because I am using 2GB storage card which is too big? or the device load too fast and not able to find the icon images?
anyone...please...

I have the same problem.
You just need to access the card once for the shortcuts icons to show up in the start menu. I usually fire up the File Explorer and navigate to the storage card.
Hope this helps,
E.

Main Memory

Happy New 2008,
Was exploring my Kasier & noticed from Setting->Memory that my memory status as follow:-
Main, Total:135M, In use:130M, Free:5M
Program, Total:101M, In use:42M, Free:59M
Which is the RAM memory? ROM memory?
When I went to "remove program", I realised programs that I installed are shown in "Programs in storage memory".. even I had directed to "memory card".. How do I know which are the program I had intended be installed in memory card? I'm confused and would appreciate any kind soul can direct me...
Thanks in advance..

Do you think this helps?
Regards,
Carty..

Sorry, just to confirm, so when you are installing a program, you tell it to install to your Micro SD Card, but it installs to the Main Memory instead?

Thanks.
Yes, I directed to micro-SD card, I can see the files are stored under the program files of memory card, but why it occupied the "storage memory" of the main memory, now I left with 5M??

Actually, I am having this problem as well. Programs that I had installed on the Micro SD are showing up in the Program Files folder on my device rather than storage card.
I just uninstalled Google Maps and confirmed absence of Google Maps folder in both device and mem card. When reinstalling the app, I chose to install on mem card. However, browsing with Total Commander shows the Google Maps exe and folder has been installed to main mem, with no Google Maps folder to be found on mem card.
Any bright ideas?

try clearing your temp internet files that eats a lot of phone memory and should free up quite a bit for you

Thanks for that. It's not really the amount of free memory that is the issue for me. It's more the fact that, despite choosing "SD card", all the programs seem to be installed on the main memory.

Can't install software on the Internal Storage

Hi,
I just got my new Diamond from Orange.
After playing with it a while, I tried to install several application such as GoogleMaps and TCMP ... But it appear that I can't install them on the Internal Storage even if I check the case when prompted !!!
Without any new app, I just got 30 Mo left on the phone memory ... so I won't last long with GoogleMaps, TCMP and TF3D Config with a new theme

Does anyone have an idea before I return the Diamond to the CS ?

You can simply move GoogleMaps to "/internal storage/program files" and update the shortcut.
I suggest using Total Commander which can create and modify shortcuts. Or you can simply use your PC when connected over activesync/mobile device center.

Ok. That will work for small software like GoogleMaps or TCMP.
But I don't think I can do the same with TomTom, C-Star or PlecoDict ...
And it'll be a bother to do that everytime I install a soft ...

I've just check the cabs file TCPMP-0.72RC1-ARM-PPC-recomp-03.CAB and GoogleMaps_compressed.CAB and it happen that they are going to be install on %ProgramFiles% ... is that why I can't install them on the internal storage ?
Did someone ever install GoogleMaps and TCPMP on the internal storage ?

Add programs from memory card

I have the newest Hyperdragon rom installed annd I can figure out how to add programs to the programs tab from a memory card. When I tap the plus sign and come to the selection screen there is no choices from the memory card. Memory card is plugged in. Thank you for your help

try putting shortcut to the program under windows/start menu/programs and see if that makes it show up under program selection.

Thank you that totally worked.
