What does "On Migration" even mean?!?!

My widget keeps switching to just showing a spinning progress bar, with "On Migration" listed. What does that even mean? Whatever it is, it's a bad translation...that phrase doesn't tell me anything. But please also fix whatever's causing the widget to switch to this and not come back.

    I have the same problem. The widget keeps switching to that blank box with the spinning bar and "On migration" as the only clue of what's happening.
    For the rest I really like the changes you made in 5.0, this is at the moment my only complaint.

    I'm having this same issue... very annoying. I'm running CM9 Stable on a Samsung Epic 4G.

    Same here. (Acer Liquid Glow)
    And sadly it's just one of the many issues I'm also experiencing...

    By the way, I'm on a LG Optimus 2X, with leaked ICS (v28G).

    Same issue. Stock ics. They really have improved their application visually so much. The update was just released, lets give them time. Feed back helps. No complaints = no knowledge of problems

    Same issue. I can drag the widget to the trash and reload it, but as soon as I put my phone (mytouch 4G) into standby the loading circle and "on migration" message pop up. Also, when I select "hide background" the background doesn't hide.

    Hi,

    The migration is a process to get back your widgets for this new version.

    If your migration process has failed (it can happen on some devices). Please use the Clear Cache option. You will loose your widgets but you'll have a clean installation. Sorry about the inconvenience.

    Thanks for your feedback

    Hi Leflou,
    I have already tried your option. Even with a clean cache, -all- my widgets display the 'On Migration' bar everytime I wake up my phone.

    My next step is uninstalling the app entirely, deleting everything related to it. I very much dislike doing that, because I will lose all my downloaded themes and all my settings in the process...

    Jens, that's what I had to do to fix the issue. Even though I'm not yet sure if it's fixed. I need to perform further tests, but it seems to be working fine.

    Well, uninstalling and reinstalling seems to have done the trick.

    Uninstalling and clearing the database from my SD card worked for me as well. Sadly, all themes were lost. At least the app is stable again.
