    My home screen is blank

    I quit Pandora, locked my phone and walked down to my car to go to lunch. 5 minutes later when I opened it to call my wife, all of my home screens were completely blank. Any idea what happened?

    Please, save me the search lectures. I haven't seen anyone losing everything.

    Have you done a reboot? Should bring them back if it was nothing catastrophic.

    This has happened to me 3 times now and a restart fixes it. I wonder what's causing it happen.

    Thats ok since we never have to restart these phones that always seems to be the last thought to go into my head.

    uptime - 134:45:25 !!!!!! 134 hours is a long time (5 1/2 days), a lot longer than my imagio.

    Yeah, I had an app to restart my Blackberry every night. I restarted my Droid for the first time in 13 days today.

    yes this has happened to me probably 5 times now. wish they would fix but like it was said, its non catastrophic. if it happens to you alot, try uninstalling your most recently installed apps.. i think i had 1 that was exposing the android bug often

    Happened to me this morning when I put it in my car dock. Battery pull/reboot fixed it, but that's the first time I've had it happen. The status bar was still working and the apps running in it at the time were all still working as well.

    This is EXACTLY what happens to me. Hate it. I feel like it has to do with the Live Wallpaper. I can open new apps from the Status Bar but the home screen, on all three screens, is blank.
