This also happened on my N2A card for Nook HD too, just not as sever in the fact that it just disappeared in settings. So, I can use the root permission for apps for a while. Then, I can't tap the button "allow" to allow an app super user permission. (I use it for Avast firewall) But then it all of a sudden disappeared in settings to check any superuser stuff at all. Crazy! Also, similar to above, after a while I can't install apks, mainly after a certain amount of time. It won't let me tap the "install" button, like that part of my screen is unusable when it is. But then it usually get fixed after a while, but my Nook has to be shut down for 10 hours (I kept track because I am desperate). Is this a ROM issue since this also happened on my old N2A card (with cyanogenmod 11)? Thanks for anyone's help.
Sidenote: apparently someone had the same issue as me, concerning the can't install apks part, so maybe you should look at this other thread to understand me better: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2325626
Fixed the root permission... had to install superuser app by clockworkmod to update the superuser binary files....but I still have an issue with the apks.

I loaded the Nookie Froyo to SDCARD and have been having weird issue all of which has been reported here and in other forums elsewhere. I thought I would take a few minutes and list them out and how I fixed it and also list a few I am still having to see if there is any resolution.
These resolutions are based on posts from this forum and others. I do not have the links for them all as I have scoured so many and tried so many things I stopped book marking them.
My Nookie Froyo is 0.6.8 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922324 (Thank you Brianf21) and I used the free EASEUS Partition Manager to extend #4 to the end of the 8GB SDCARD (http://www.partition-tool.com/). I am also using the multi-u-boot.bin from rookie1 (sweet thing as I can boot SDCARD or stock Nook Color w/out taking out the card!)
If I missed credit to anyone please forgive me. I am not a developer, just an end user that likes to play and am working off of other people’s hard work.
Problem 1: Market downloads apps and then stops and won’t download anymore.
Resolution: Go into Settings/Application Settings/Manage applications. Select ALL. Scroll down to Market and tap it. Tap Force Stop. Tab Clear Data and tap ok to any warning messages. Go to Google Services Framework in All Applications and tap Clear Data. Tap OK and and warning. Power off and back on.
Market should work now and if you got sign in errors for Goggle Talk that should also work. On first run of Market you may not see all of you installed apps. After I installed an app, exited market and went back in all installed Apps were present and accounted for. Been good since doing this and will continue to monitor.
Problem2: WiFi doesn’t work after sleep.
Resolution: Go into Settings/Wireless Networks and Settings/Wifi Settings Hit the Menu Button and tap Advanced. Select Wifi Sleep policy and set it to Never.
Go back to Wireless Networks and Settings and tap Mobile networks. Deselect anything in there that is 2g/3g (I have a nook color so not needed for me).
Run a file manager program that gives you root access (I used Root Explorer). Go into /System/App and rename Phone.apk to Phone.apk.old. Rename TelephonyProvider.apk also to .old. Power off and back on again as you will eventually get errors the phone doesn’t work. Again I am on a Nook Color so no phone and no need to load it.
Problem3: Can’t get the latest Google Framework to load.
problem 3 was resolved kinda by a new build from the developer
Problem 4: Market not showing all apps (protected apps missing)
edit the build.prop using something like root explorer. change the ro.build.fingerprint line to what is shown below (make a backup copy just in case). go into device settings and clear the market cache (not data) and force stop. clear the data for the google framework and force stop. reboot your nook and go into the market. search for something that was missing like vevo. if it apears you should be good.
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/voles/sholes/sholes:2.2.1/FRG83D/60505:user/release-keys
Mike…
I use note 7000b 2.3.5dxkk1
rooted
I found this problem that app I installed in sdcard
their icon on home sceeen sometime they disappear
they change to gray clour and cant open it.
Hv to restart it and will be normal its happen several time
so where this problem might come from
anyone hv this before?
Thanks
Oh and sometime my gallery is empty too
u think is might comefrom exsdcard(Sandisk class6 32g)
I have the exact same issue. I guess it's titanium backup related. Have you ever get your apps frozen via titanium backup or moved them to sdcard using titanium backup?
Rebooting the device once solved my problem for good. I never had such issue ever since I rebooted.

I never used titaniumbackup for anything yet
only back up once for game never restore.
So I glad atleast the problem might not came from sdcard
which I just bought it.
So May be hv to wait for ICS. Its may help my issue.
Thanks a lot.

This has been happening to me too and I'm on an unrooted stock ROM with a 16-gb Class 4 Transcend micro SDHC.
don't install too many apps to sd and you won't have this problem.
known issue with sd card. but none of the devs fix the problem
Let me give it to Samsung Gnote ... i never used to install so much apps on any of my previous devices. So much built in memory is provacating

Actually I install only a few app
and couple game in sd card mostly,
I only kept my file in it.
I hv change my sd class4 to class6 once
I though its too slow but problem still there
Fast Boot option may be the culprit
This is actually a long-standing problem in Android OS, going back at least two years (donkey's years in this technology!)
Something about the interaction of the OS and an sdcard formated for holding apps creates odd behaviours.
Lots of complicated suggestions have been made, including reformatting sdcard, reinstalling ROMs, changing launchers (the one suggested here) and such.
None of these approaches seems really to solve the problem even in most cases.
This is the first I have read about app overload on an sdcard being a "known issue" (known to whom? XDA?), although I can well believe the possibility that it COULD be true. Still... Just where might the cutoff point be? Also, isn't an active app loaded into memory, so this would be the real bottleneck?
What seems to be working for me (at least for the last week or so) is the following very simple tweak.
CUT TO THE SOLUTION BELOW -- SEARCH FOR ////
Some (not all) of my apps moved to SD (all by Titanium Backup Pro) have begun to disappear and (sometimes) reappear without warning after I began to add and delete large Virtual Machines created in QEMU from my 16GB SanDisc class 10 microSD card on my HTC Droid Incredible running rooted stock Verizon Android Froyo 2.2.3. I know this thread is far from my phone's "home base", but from what I can tell this problem with disappearing apps located on an sdcard is NOT determined by hardware or even Android version.
I also happen to use LauncherPro by Federico Carnales instead of the built-in HTC Sense launcher. I noted elsewhere on XDA that a user had suggested that because at least some (maybe all) launchers start before the SD Card that this may be a problem, especially if changes are made to the sdcard that the launcher did not perform, or was not active during their performance by other apps such as Titanium Backup. That fits my situation, because I unmounted the SD, physically removed it to a PC, and added/deleted large VM files to save (lots) of time. No problems of this sort before I did this, so there must be some connection.
I noted that other users have tried reformatting SD, substituting different brands of SD, using newer/older SD etc. None of these reliably helped. So I skipped these options.
//// The (simple!) solution I tried that SEEMS to work (only time will tell!) is buried in the main Android Settings (accessed from the Menu button while in Home screen). Under "Applications" there is a setting "Fast Boot" that I checked long ago and forgot about (it seemed like a good thing to do at the time). The text warns "Turn off to use some Market apps" (that shows the age of my 2-yr old used phone and Android OS -- ohmygosh!-- because it refers to Market rather than Google Play Store!) Anyway, I unchecked the option and rebooted the phone.
Yes, it took a bit longer to boot (maybe a whole minute!), but after waiting about another minute ALL my home screen apps had normal icons and loaded properly. Titanium Backup Pro batch scenarios confirmed there were no apps in a forced uninstalled state (i.e. I had not done the deed, the system somehow had done it or at least rendered the apps "invisible" to Titanium, which decided they needed reinstallation).
The only odd behaviour was that auto brightness was turned off after I unchecked Fast Boot and rebooted. Going into Android Settings > Display and rechecking "auto brightness" took care of that. No other oddities or strange behaviours thus far (but it has only been about an hour).
I will report anything further on this thread only (Samsung Fascinate > Fascinate Q&A > What just happend? apps on sdcard) if anything else requires reporting. Silence implies success!

My Galaxy Note is running Android 4.0.4. I am running the stock ROM. Not rooted.
After I just installed the latest Samsung patch DDLR9, whenever I switch off my phone and restart it, the Icons on my Homescreen disappear. These are those programs which I have saved on my SD Card.
Never happened before this. Is there is fix to this specific to the Galaxy Note?
no this is a bug in the new DDLR9 firmware and happens to the apps moved to sd. For now move all these apps to phone and it will work fine

Now a ROM bug is proclaimed the cause. Well, maybe... That could always be the case, but given all the problems all the others have had in so many different configurations, I wonder...

Hello all,
From the recent access to the google play store from the nook hd+ and the deep discounts, I decided to get the nook hd+.
Indeed, it is a great device, and the addition of google play makes it so much more powerful.
Thanks to leapinrar's rooting and extras file, I can also download all sorts of awesome apps for it. I went ahead and downloaded the universal root kit as well as the extras kit that allowed apps of unknown sources to be downloaded to it.
However, there are a couple issues happening:
1. This happens intermittenly- Every once in a while, the nook hd+ completely resets itself for no particular reason. Sometimes it happened every ten minutes, yet it didn't happen at all yesterday. I am not sure what is going on.
2. This happens all the time- Every time I open the library menu, it crashes, saying "unfortunately, library has stopped."
I didn't have neither of these problems before getting it rooted. Can anybody point me to the right direction in solving this problem?
BTW, I put the post in this section, because they didn't allow me to post at the nook hd+ specific forums. Please redirect post to appropriate place if necessary.
Thanks in advance for all of the help!
This is the right forum to post that question.
Try flashing the disable root zip so that just the extras is active. It is best not to root unless you really need it. If it still acts up, go to the stock CWM and wipe data/factory reset. That means you will have to log in again both with B&N and Google. But it may get rid of your issue. Then flash just the extras zip this time. Downloading all those awesome apps may have added one that is causing the problem. So be judicious about what you add back.
Sent from my Nook HD+ running CM10.1 on emmc.
thanks leapinrar! I will try your solution and let you know with the results ASAP.
After reflashing back to CWM, these issues indeed disappeared. Adding extras and root functionality (I have a couple apps that require rooting) did not require in crashes, so just like you said, I think the issues stemmed from one of my apps. Thanks again for your help.
Also, I am in the hunt of a smooth good app that can take notes as well as annotate pdfs (there is an equivalent called "upad" in the iOS). I will be opening a new thread to ask about this, but I wanted to inquire you (or to anybody else that views this post).
Thanks again.
Hi there, I'm a long time reader, first time poster who has recently rooted their handset. I had initially flashed CM10 onto my phone along with the Prometheus kernel but then switched back to the stock HTC Sense ROM with the stock kernel. Recently, my phone has been crashing several times throughout the day and I've noticed that on most occasions, a text box from the Superuser app pops up with the message 'system has been granted superuser access' just before it crashes. Denying the system superuser access seems to have no effect. The list of apps I have installed apart from the regular apps on the ROM and Superuser goes as follows:
1Mobile Market
Ask.fm
CatLog
Chrome
CropTool+
GPlayer
Greenify
Instagram
Livestream
My Boy! Free
Nova Launcher
PieControl
PitchLab
Pokemon Online
QuizUp
Show Box
Skype
Snapchat
SoundCloud
Titanium Backup
Twitch
Twitter
UCCW
WhatsApp
YouTube
I also have a logcat from when I began recording the log to when the phone crashed during regular use (mostly on the Twitch app). Unfortunately, the file size is too large and I cannot upload URLs. I shall enclose a shortened version, but if the full version is required, please say so.
As you can understand this has been infuriating for me and I really do not want to have to resort to wiping the system, so if anyone can identify where the issue lies and what can be done about it, that would be most appreciated.

When you have reflashed the ROM did you wipe the dalvik-cache and Cache beforehand?
You can have oddities happen if not
You could use TWRP/CWM recovery to wipe them and see if this cures it.
I've not checked your logs as this is something I'm slowly trying to get my head around in time (I'd not be much help with that yet )
