Icons disappearing in cm 12.1? - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone know why my app icons and widgets are disappearing whenever I open the apps drawer in cm 12.1? It only happens in Trebuchet but not in the Google Go Launcher and I can't seem to move apps to my SD card because it gets deleted after a reboot. Weird.

Deleting a Submenu without Advanced Launcher

I have a submenu in my app drawer that I don't need. I tried dragging and dropping it into the trash, but that didn't remove it from app drawer and I went through settings also, but I didn't see anything for removing submenus. I tried Advanced Launcher, but that gave me the "Low on Space" notification and it also messed with the theme I have. I am currently running CyanogenMod 4.2.14.1. Does anyone know of a way to delete the submenu without using advanced launcher?

Missing app icons

I am running Froyo and i moved some apps to sd but when I connect my phone to usb to transfer stuff or whatever I lose the app icons from the app drawer. The apps still work but the icons are missing from the app drawer. Anyone with this problem?

[Q] weird app drawer/extras behavior

So I have a new freshly autonootered NC (1.1.0 w/AN3) and running Go Launcher EX as my primary launcher.
From reading, I expected newly installed apps to show in the Go Launcher app drawer but not in Extras until a reboot.
However, what I'm getting is LOTS of my installed apps never showing up in the Go Launcher app drawer but always showing up in Extras.
Anybody else see this behavior? Is it a Go Launcher peculiarity perhaps?

[Q] Cyanogen 10.1 trebuchet launcher

For the trebuchet launcher, whenever i use auto rotate in an app and i go back to the launcher and open drawer, there would be this empty space below the drawer until you refresh. I know this is not a huge issue but it is pretty annoying(OCD here ) and I hope someone can help?

[Q] Move Apps to SD card, then icons and widgets disappear

Some apps are moveable to the SD card using the App page in Settings.
When I move any app it seems to move OK and functions but after a reboot the icons and widgets for moved apps disappear from home screens. The apps can still be run the app drawer so are still installed, if I drop an icon back onto a home page it again disappears on reboot.
I've tried 2 different (32 Gb) SD cards, a Sandisk and a Transcend and the same happens with both.
Anyone else notice this, or have an idea why it might be happening?

It's a common problem of google launcher
Try using any 3rd party launcher
I recommend you using lucid launcher,apex launcher or nova launcher

Thank you, that's very helpful. I've just tried Nova launcher as it was a familiar launcher from another phone and the icons now stay after a reboot, BBC weather widget still gets lost, but I'll try another launcher and see if I get that to remain.
Thanks.

I suggest u lucid launcher (If you want a simple and fast launcher) I personally use this launcher and it's working flawless without any problem
Thanks for the tip, I'll try it.
I've discovered that apps with widgets or root requirements should not be moved to the sd card, so I'm happy that icons don't disappear now I've stopped using Google launcher.
Lollipop Fixed This for Me
I had the same issue with 4.4.4. Any app that was moved to the SD card would have its icon disappear after a restart. I haven't tested all the movable apps but the 3 that I did try no longer have this issue once I got the 5..01 Lollipop update.
