[Q] problem with keyboard, notification sound and widgets - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

Hi there!
I have an Xperia S LT26i with android 4.1.2 (stock rom) and when I turn it off and on again I have 3 problems:
1.- the keyboard, I use SwiftKey, but every time I reboot my xperia the system choose for me the stock keyboard...and I can't uncheck the xperia keyboard!.
2.- notification sound. same, every time I reboot my xperia, the system set the default notification sound for every app...
3.- widget. i'm using beautiful widget for time and weather, but, again, every time I reboot the xperia, the widget disappear and I must create a new one. (btw, im using nova launcher, not the stock launcher)
what can I do? should I made root on my phone to fix this? or what??

Make sure all your apps are on your internal memory(phone memory) not your sdcard (storage?)
Try disableing(or freezing the keyboard apps (may bootloop)
The notifacations i have no idea , i still use the default

Icons Keep Disappearing: Why?

Does anyone have any idea why the icons keep disappearing? I'm talking about the shortcuts to applications you can put where the widgets are. It's the place were you can put shortcuts, widgets or folders.
You mean in the launcher, yes?
I had the same problem. It sometimes happens to the apps that are on sd card and when you boot the phone and start using it too early, before all apps load. Next time try to give your phone some time after reboot, a minute or minute and half shoult be fine to load everything and then start using your phone. I do it every time and it's fine for me.

im also experiencing this, after a reboot even if i wait for 10-15 minutes before i use it, some apps from the shortcut i made are not there anymore..
Then it's a software problem?
It's an Android problem i believe ; you can use titanium backup to backup the sony ericsson home app or you can use a launcher which allows you to backup your homescreen i.e go launcher.
I found turning off the animation fixed this for me.

Had the same problem and after re-creating folders several times [painfully as I had all my games in individual folders by genre] I finally gave up on it. It happens anytime you pull the battery / switch sim card or unmount the sd.
The solution I came up with was an app called 'Apps Organizer' I now label and create folders/shortcuts using that app and all works well

APEX launcher

Hello i flashed elite ICS ROM with elite Kernel ..with default apex lancher..i really like the launcher but when i for example go to apex settings/drawer settings and i change drawer animation from fly in/out to none ...i touch home ... and when i open up my drawer the effect is still there when i look again to setting effect is chosen the same with other functions could something block my launcher or smg?

By the way the EliteRom already includes the Kernel so need to flash both unless the kernel is newer than the Rom.
Trying to replicate what you did, I went into drawer setting, selected none then hit the back arrow to back out to the home screen which was blank for a moment (I guess cuz the UI was restarting) and I clicked on the drawer icon and no animation occurred.
So it might be that you may need to press back instead of home to save the settings (home might be treated as a cancel & exit).
EDIT: Though if I go back and change it back to fly in/out, and hit the home button instead of back, I get the same blank pause, and animation returns. If I set none, and 'home' button again, blank pause, and no animation. So it seems to be working for me regardless if I use the back button or home.
What version of EliteMod are you using, and are you using any customizations?
actually i think that the kernel is bundled ... so you dont need to install it ... and to my problem a tried ..and still the same ... everything disappear from my screen ...and then it pops up i click to my app drawer and effect is back
i am using newest version
no customization
Go into Apex Settings -> About Apex Launcher and see what version you have.
I'm on 1.2.4 , if you're earlier click on the "Check for update now" and apply it, as I've done that in the past.
By the way are you using a DataSwap mod he provides (or sd swap if not that)? (and in that light, are you using an sd-ext partition).

[Q] "Settings has stopped" when adding lock screen widgets on 4.2

Hi.While this is my first post I'm not actually new here.
Pretty much whenever I go to add a lock screen widget, after I select the widget it pops up that settings has stopped and returns to the homescreen. I don't have any security settings or passcodes and it happens with any widget I select. I am rooted and using a custom rom which is pretty close to stock. I have tried wiping data from the settings app in the application manger. The default camera and clock "widgets" that were already there do work, just adding new ones doesn't.
What do?
Have you found anything on this? I'm having the same problem and haven't found anything yet...
Same problem here - very irritating.
Edit: Sorted when flashed a 4.2.1 ROM over the top.

if you use the launcher it is normal to run in background. uninstall stock home.apk and convert z launcher as system apps.
