Unfortunately this will happen if the handset is powered off then on as the handset can not remember the application arrangement you have made when this happens. At this stage I am not aware of a way around this.
While the SE launcher is quite slick, it's pretty rubbish at the same time for a number of reasons:
I think I'm going to have to go back to using something like ADW.Launcher, but I am prepared to wait until I get the recent update that added landscape support and themes, purely as I hope this may address some of the above problems.
- It forgets the arrangement of applications
- It doesn't seem to run at a high enough priority so regularly restarts when you've dared to use the phone!
- It forgets your chosen layout view (I got for A-Z) sometimes, which is annoying
- It can slow down and stutter for no reason
- It can sometimes make widgets disappear, but they're still there (just invisible) which means you must hold and select an empty box on the grid, drag it to trash, before you can either restore the widget or put something else there instead!
