When I use ShootMe, I cannot view the image in my gallery until I reboot. Running CM6 nightly, but have noticed on other roms. Anyone know what its causing this?

The sd card needs to 'reload' to see the new pictures.
You can unmount and remount the sd card, then the gallery will update and see the new pics.
Or if you use Switch Pro widget, u can make a reload sd toggle and tap that, and it'll do it for you.
Much appreciated

Download sdrescan is another option too and usually faster than unmount/remount.
Wondered if anyone could help me. Everytime I reboot my phone all my apps icons dissapear and show a picture of an SD card........ the app still plays but makes it hard telling the different apps apart....... hope someone can help me

Try settings, applications, manage applications, all, then find tw launcher and clear defaults and clear data.
Fixed it. Think it was a problem with the jvb I was running and honey 3.1

I have this problem with my apps icons: after I install an app, everything is ok, but in a while, the icon dissappears and i have only the green android robot icon. if i press it, the application will run normally. it is to say than not all the apps have this. i have some apps with normal icons.
Hello,
Did you install these apps you lost on SD card. Or did you move them using a program to put your apps to SD? That is i think your problem.

i moved them using app2sd app. why would that be the problem?
This is ridiculous man. I've had 3 moto phones now and have never seen it like this! Every reboot I lose at least 5. The XDA app is cursed on this phone, not to mention others.
Before you ask, I didn't transfer anything to the media area.
This is silly, and needs to get sorted out soon.

Same thing happening to me. Annoying to say the least.

You want to know how bad it was the last time my phone was rebooted? (which was from a battery pull due to the XDA app freezing up the phone) - I had 5 1/2 pages of apps before - now I have 4 1/2.
This is wild...
Just got the bionic
And the same thing has happened to me
Kinda annoying

Ok... I won't ask if you transfered anything to the media area.
What I will ask is if you transfered your file which are in the media area back to the phone.
Some apps will install to the media area by default. You need to move them to the phone in manage apps.
Go to manage apps and select the media area tab. Make sure you go down the line and ensure there are no checks in any boxes.
If you have any, move those apps to phone if you don't want them top disappear.

You're a boss.
Just did what you said. I will report back at the end of the day if I lost any apps.

Not so fast
I just followed the recommendation to the T. And when I attempt to uncheck the box, I get a screen that allows me to move the app back to the phone.
So I next tried to move the app back to the phone, but when I do, I get a popup that states: "FAILED TO MOVE APPLICATION". Repeated tries yield the same results.
The QC on this phone is rubbish.
+1 ... I usually lose XDA, Netflix, and Madden 12. Madden 12 won't even show up in the market for me either although I have paid for it.
If the app you're trying to movve is already missing try re-installing it from the market before you move it to keep your data.
The apps which disapeared all start with "COM." And will have to be re-installed before you can move them.

When I download apps from Android Market, the Bionic occasionally (rarely) throws an insufficient storage message just prior to installation, despite have >2GB of application storage available. The downloaded file just disappears after that.
If I had to guess, when my apps disappear, they do so during automatic updates.
If you get that error, most likely it was trying to save an app to your media area.
Re-download and install the app.
Once install is complete, send the app back to phone asap. Get it out of the media area.

This worked for me. No more disappearing apps. Thanks.

UN mounting and re mounting the internal storage works. So does restarting the launcher after the initial boot. You can use a task manager to kill the home process... When it restarts all my apps re appear
Weak we have to go through all that trouble... But it is better than no fix at all.
Losing apps is not Bionic specific
Dear All:
My lg revolution does the same thing, when I reboot phone not all the apps load. It seems to be software related aka Android glitches. The apps I have installed to the external SD card are the ones that are sometimes lost. Internal memory apps never get lost. BTW my wife's Fascinate the same thing.

What class SD card are you using? Try a slower class card. It also might be the brand is not compatible.
Your SD card is the problem.

I had this problem as well, and after doing a bit of searching around, this is what I came up with. This is apparently a problem plaguing the Bionic right now, and will hopefully be fixed with the soon to come OTA update. When you download apps, go to settings>Applications>Manage Applications>Media Area, and uncheck the apps that you want the phone to not delete, or if it's a new app you just downloaded, make sure it ISN'T checked. In a sense, sometimes the phone will save apps to the SD card (when the box is checked) automatically besides the standard internal memory, therefore when the phone reboots, it might not read the apps in your SD memory very well. So until the OTA udpate comes through, just double check in this area that all apps are unchecked (unless it's Backbreaker, or something). For instance, my DroidForums application kept uninstalling itself, and after checking the Media Area, I noticed that the box beside the name was "checked." After unchecking, it is no longer removing itself.
Apps are all in phone memory. I have 1.5+ available app storage.
Does anyone have a fix to prevent my Droid 3 from uninstalling my apps for no apparent reason?
Try rebooting the phone a few times to see if they come back. I had this problem before with certain apps. Sometimes they wouldn't show up but a reboot often brought them back

Generally only happens when you have apps on the external sd card, a lot of apps default to this when installing or even updating. A restart will fix this as Andoroid said but just move the apps to the internal memory, you may be surprised you still have some on external.

Especially ones with widgets. Widgets don't play well from the sd-ext card.
