i have 2 widgets that is not installed anymore when i reboot my device. why dose this happen. everytime i have to remove its an app widget so i have to remove the app and re install it to get the widget back,,,
 
Go into your manage applications screen and find the app, it will give you the option to move it to the phone if it's stored on your sd card.
 
Yeah that is usually the issue... Except with pandora radio... Their widget vanishes no matter what... Cant even reload it.. Its gone from the widget library completely... Tried uninstalling and reinstall... widget was back but gone again on next restart... Pandoras customer service even admitted that its been an issue... Anyone else use this widget having same problem??
 
okay so i tryed to move it to phone and i did but then the widget had a problem loading so i had to uninstall the app and reinstall and when i installed it it went back on the sd. it wont stay on the phone..
 
its the go sms pro widget it wont stay on the phone and when i switch it to the phone the widget dont load and i have to download it again and it goes back onto the sd card
 
A try at the original question: The disappearing widget can be a function of the capabilities the developer built into the app. That is for the widget to remain on the device throughout the update or re-install process the developer has to build in that specific capability. Long before I'd try to jump through hoops to get the app to do something it's not capable of I'd check for any documentation or the developer's website to see it the can actually stick.
 
hmmm? i dont understand. the widget isnt loading when the phone starts up. it says problem loading widget. i have to uninstall the app and re install it to get it to work again
 
i tryed that but then the widget dont even show up in the list of widgets... the app just dont want to work out.. i never had this problem untill couple week ago it might be the update but i dont see any complaints from the comments of the app

Thats why i said what i said as specific as possible... In one of Ur posts u said u couldnt load widget.. Moved to phone.. Couldnt load widget.. Reinstalled and it went back to sd...... From initial install dont even open app or widget move to phone.. Then try... If not.. Then it wasnt meant to be... Yet.. Bitch at the devs...
