Happens because of this bug.
Workaround is to backup HD Widgets with Titanium Backup (or similar), uninstall HD Widgets and then restore it.
Good tip!
Thanks! We get a lot of people asking why it's not working.

WTF???
Does anyone else use Go Launcher?
Everytime I setup all my widgets just right and get everything laid out, as soon as I reboot the phone it erases all my widgets. I just a full wipe and wiped everything multiple times. Then flashed protekk build #18 (because I had no issues with it before), then reinstall all apps through market, then setup my widgets and same issue....
I just got this phone as a replacement (old phone had power button issue), I haven't returned my other one yet. Is there a chance it is an issue with the phone? Never remember having this problem with the other phone...
It only erases my widgets, I have one app icon on my desktop and it loads that back up but nothing else...
Seriously man??? You've asked this at least twice in the nightlies thread. I've tried to help you at least twice. You keep ignoring my replies.
If you keep ignoring the only people trying to help you, it's going to be pretty hard to get help.

Launcher bug or ROM/launcher bug?
Been using golaunch for a while, never had this issue.

Are you using a theme in Theme Chooser? Could be the same problem that plagues WidgetLocker

Sorry, I saw your reply but didn't respond to it.
I am using the theme chooser, but I never had this issue with my old phone.
I'll try going to stock theme and setting up widgets then reboot, that should tell me if its a theme issue correct?
edit: so that worked, it kept the widgets...
Kind of a bummer that it does that with Go Launcher.
For anyone having this issue, just setup your Widgets and then in go launcher setting choose backup configuration. After that everything should be Honky dory.

Yo!
I have this problem which is irritating more than severe; whenever I reboot my Desire, my widgets say 'problem loading widget' (I think? Something like that, anyway). So I have to reassign my widgets; some of which have complicated settings. Also my 'defaults' are reset - it asks me which launcher I want to use at startup; this has only happened today; before it has been fine.
Anyone know where the problem might arise from? I recently installed Quickdesk if that has the possibility of causing it.
I am running a rooted desire on the stock rom using launcherpro. Thanks!
Did you force it to the sd, what rom are you on and how do you turn of / reboot the phone?

Just got my galaxy s3 today. Been messing with it sense. Unfortunately i've had issues with some launchers and I don't know why. Apex/Nova/Holo have all been giving issues in the terms of putting down Widgets at the home screen. All three will tell me that there isnt enough room on the page for the widget when that same page is completely blank.
Another issue i had was super lagginess. I haven't rooted yet because im still kinda noobish and i dont want to do anything derpy to the phone. And i wanted to give touchwiz at least a little bit of time. Aside from that though ive been installing and un-installing launchers like mad and im still getting a bit of lag from switching between pages for an example. Ive got scroll effects turned off and speed nearly all the way up (or low in Apex i think) and its still feeling sluggish.
Was wondering what recomendations you guys could give. Like i said i want to stay stock for a bit...at least until cm comes out
When you reboot the phone, do you get the prompt that asks you what program you want to use (for the launcher)? Select your desired launcher, and press Always.
Yea I get that option and ive placed it for my holo launcher but for whatever reason apex and nova were giving me issues like lag and starting to fc things. Was just curious if any one knewbl what was up. Any good launches you would recommend?

Don't quote me on this but I believe you have to make launchers a system app if you want widgets to work correctly.
At least, that's what I heard. I could be wrong.
Its worth a try?

I use nova on my phone and tab and have no issues. Might want to try and do a full wipe and start from scratch

Yep, full wipe is my suggestion as well.

Going to ask something slightly noobish but how do I make one of the launchers a system app? Im still stock at the moment so im trying to figure out whats going on.
I did a full wipe just now and its sill giving me issues that there isnt enough room on the page for the upload of the widget. All im trying to do is upload a stock digital clock widget and its giving me issues in both apex and holo. Is it because they might be touchwiz widgets and the launchers aren't recognizing them? I dont know if that could be the issue but like I said im still stock. Now that i look at it though I may have to root my phone sooner than I wanted. Been on battery for three hours and im already discharged at 51% grr..:crying:

Read this.
Q: I can't add widgets to my homescreen from the Widgets tab of the drawer. Help!
A: In order to use the in-drawer widgets feature, you have to either enable the Root Helper from advanced settings or install Apex Launcher as a system app (instructions below), both of which require root on your device. This is due to limitations of the Android framework, so there is no way we could change this requirement. If you have just installed it as a system app and still cannot add widgets from the drawer, please reboot your device and try again. If you do not have root access, you may still add widgets from the system widget picker. Just long press on the homescreen and choose "Widgets" from the popup list.

Hi guys, I'm using the Sound Search widget (Google Ears) outside US so I have to defrost it in Titanium Backup every after reboot. I also noticed that the app automatically gets frozen over time so I have to remove the widget, defrost in TiBU and add the widget to the homescreen to make it work again. I just want to ask if there's a way to stop it from being frozen over time? Is there a specific background app that locks it back again? Its fine to do the steps above everytime I reboot the phone. I just want to know if there's a way to stop it from being frozen again until I reboot my phone. Thanks.
Google Play Music has been launched in the UK and yet it still freezes the sound search widget. Is there a way of defrosting permanently?
EDIT: Running GNex 4.2 stock rooted semi-deodexed, stock kernel
I noticed that the sound search widget now remains defrosted when I upgraded to 4.2.1. Check yours if it does the same.
Can somebody post the apk for Google ears?
jelly buttery smoothness
I was using the one from the link below before I upgraded 4.2.1 ->

i have the same problem from italy. did you find a way to fix it?
upgrade to 4.2.1 don't resolve for me.
If you guys are rooted, using Package Enabler would activate it even if you do a reboot.

Hi all,
I just installed TWA_PRIV's 1/28 revision of CM10.1 and whenever I start my KF I get a message 'unfortunately Chronus has stopped'. Does anyone know what Chronus is? The unit is working okay, but this message is quite annoying. BTW, the ROM is amazing and super smooth...I'm sure this chronus message is on my end and nothing to do with the ROM itself, but would like to get rid of it if anyone knows how?
Thanks
Pete

Okay, so I did some searching and found the rouge app...it was a weather/time app that must have been running in the background, so I've frozen it in TB and alls well now...
Cheers
I think if you go into Manage apps, you can clear the app data for Chronus and should be fine after that.
