[Solved]Apps icons missing , green icons instead

I've got this problem after reflashing my phone with pr1.3 from navifirm but it's still here even after another reflash . I think it's something related to icon cache , any solution ? :confused:

Did chmod rights to same as other folders and I had all the right icons for installed apps back after reboot :)

Flash rootfs + emmc, it will start you all over again, but it's ok :)

I've already done this 3 times with the same result , what could be wrong ?

full reflash and still same? Do you restoring your backup after reflash?

Flashing rootfs + emmc?

I had that problem when I only flashed rootfs...

Edit: restoring a backup can cause that too.

I know for sure I've reflashed emmc and rootfs and everything was 100% /

Re: Apps icons missing , green icons instead
 
The only problem related to reflashing could be the fact that I didn't run CMD in administrator mode , but I doubt .

Arie was right with the backup hassles, though...
I´m guessing that you did backup after flashing rootFS + EMMC..?
If yes, you simply cannot:) It messes all up...
so flash again and set your N9 all over as a new device...the only thing not messing it up is contacts transfer after flashing..

add this to the end of your flashing command:

--erase-user-data=secure

This happens when the home screen displays icons for .desktop files for which the icons do not exist. The home screen loads .desktop files from /usr/share/applications/*.desktop and /home/user/.local/share/applications/*.desktop and stores the order of the icons in /home/user/.config/meegotouchhome-nokia/launcherbuttons.data. The desktop files in /usr/share/applications are (or should be) provided by the installation packages of each application, so reinstalling the applications should bring their icons back. Removing launcherbuttons.data should get rid of any stale entries in the icon order configuration. Removing .desktop files from the user's local applications directory will get rid of icons not provided by application packages.

I don't quite get it. I tried reinstalling the apps. The same green icons appear.

I fixed it somehow , by full reflashing also erasing user data . I still think there's an application or a tweak that does this . I used to install like 10-15 apps from store right after reflash . Since last reflash I installed apps more carefully .

I did everything and none of them works. The green icons are still there. This is crazy!

I have the same problem, so I reflashed rootfs and emmc. One by one I will load up new software, and see what could have caused it. I'm leaning towards a tweak in N9 Quicktweak, inception, or unrestricted system-ui. I had just reflashed a week ago, and the above is all that I installed, so I'm sure I could find the problem.

newly reflashed the phone. Only installed N9 Quicktweak, developer mode, and utilities for developer mode. Green icons occurring. Strongly leaning towards n9 quicktweak, I didnt even open it. Time to reflash again.

N9QT don't do anything when you only install it without activating tweaks...

I got the same green icons, after full reflash when I by mistake installed all my saved application as USER from teraminal (dpkg -i)..
I also tried to reinstall this app from terminal as ROOT and from filebox (double click), but nothing help, Icons is still green...
I again did the full reflash and now installed all my app via terminal, but as ROOT... All work perfectly ;)

I didn't have rights for 80x80 folder under /usr/share/icons/hicolor.
Did chmod rights to same as other folders and I had all the right icons for installed apps back after reboot :)

After everything, this was the problem for me too!!

Never had the "green squircle" problem; today is the first time. I can confirm that this method works. Thank you for sharing! :)

Re: Apps icons missing , green icons instead
 
Could anyone explain a little more how to do this? What I did was: devel-su
chmod 004 /usr/share/icons/hicolor/80x80/ but I got permission denied.

Man, you're fast :) Thank you very much, worked although I had to do chmod -R 775 /usr/share/icons/hicolor/ .
