I have a rooted Vodafone VF685, running Kitkat 4.4.2 with ADW Launcher. I'm having trouble with my shortcut icons. They keep changing at random to the green Android robot. The apps still launch when I tap the robot, but it's annoying.

Can anyone help please?

  • Icons are stored with apk itself. system apps apk's are stored in /system/app and user apps( from playstore ) are stored apk's at /data/app

For me this worked: deleting the shortcut and adding another back onto the homescreen. :)

Solved the problem. I opened ES Task Manager again, killed all apps and cleared the cache. Icons back to normal. I found the idea here: lcons Broken

Thank you Rahul for assisting.
