Root How come every time I reboot all my widgets disappear?

This started happening after I installed the new Apex ROM. Is there a way to fix this? I have to reload all my widgets on every page every time I reboot. Kinda frustrating.

Any help is much appreciated.
 
Did you by chance download the 'disappearing widgets' app???



.....ok seriously now, did you wipe your cache and data before you flashed the Apex ROM?

HAHA! That's what's wrong!! Seriously though.....yes, I did wipe data and cache before the ROM install.
 
Not sure if this has anything to do with it, but I'm running a custom "widget locker" lockscreen. I just changed the png's. And I'm also running a couple of transparent widgets. But even the widgets that aren't transparent disappear after reboot.
 
Are you using LauncherPro? I'm using the Tranq 3.6.0 ROM and before that was using Stock but with certain widgets and LauncherPro anytime I reboot the phone I lose some widgets. Some will come back if I go to Prefs -> Restart LauncherPro. Those that don't I have to put back manually. Some have even disappeared from the "Widgets" list all together even though they're still installed so i have to uninstall and reinstall. I dont use those particular widgets anymore. Right now the only one that I have that still does it is a Christmas Widget that will be gone in a week anyway. If you're using LauncherPro at least that nails it down to the launcher. If not I'm interested to see what it is.
