apps on homescreen vanish

I updated my phone (samsung galaxy s advance) to jelly bean last week (official update). It runs smooth, but I have one enoying problem.

When I move apps to my sd card, everything is fine. But when I reboot my phone, all the apps that are moved to my sd card disappear from my homescreen. Then I need to place all of them back manually. This happens with every reboot and it only removes the apps from my sd card and not the apps stored on the internal memory.

Is there any solution for this? It would save a lot of my precious internal memory :)


Thanks
 
Since Jelly bean doesn't expect the apps to be on the SDCARD then it probably doesn't bother to check there at all and erases the links because they don't point to internal memory. The SDCARD is checked last as far as the memory goes.

Thank you for your reply. I wonder why they would make the option to move apps to the Sd card, when it doesn't work like it should.
