Same thing happens to me. Sometimes my Optimus shows a little icon that has the android guy on it and it doesn't let me open the app or it says Application Not Installed.
Same here (on a stock phone). For the first day or so, everything was fine, but ever since then, moving icons anywhere is almost impossible.It happens to me too (on 2.2)
Interesting. Two questions:Usually you can get things back to normal (and hopefully find your missing icons) by force-quitting the Launcher from the Applications section of the Settings.
1. When you go back to Home, the Launcher just starts itself up, without complaining.Two questions:
1. How do you get the phone back to operate normally after that? Does the Launcher restart automatically?
2. Does force-quitting the Launcher do anything different (just in regard to the icon-moving bug) than power-cycling the phone?
Got it. (I wasn't sure if the Launcher would have to be already running for Home to do anything.)When you go back to Home, the Launcher just starts itself up, without complaining.
Happens to me all the time since updating to 2.3. Does anyone know what's going on?
I'm running 2.3.4 on an N1
Two fixes have been posted in this very thread:I figured that there'd be some fix for it (requiring a root if necessary), but it appears that no one has figured out a way around this yet.
Two fixes have been posted in this very thread:
- Kill the launcher
- Reboot the phone
Those aren't true fixes, they're workarounds or ways to clean up the mess after the fact.

Yeah I've had this problem for months now. It only happens to me in 2 area's on the left hand side of the screen. Move an icon there and as soon as you lift your finger the icon disappears. Sometimes it shows up later in a folder on another home screen. Was driving me nuts. The simplest work around I've come up with is to just create the icons you want, WHERE you want them. Because you can create an icon in a spot where you can't move an icon (because of the bug). Once they're set up where you want em, DON'T try and move em around. Realistically how often do you need to move the icons once the phone is set up the way you want.
