after safe mode reboot home screen widgets don't load.

I rebooted into safe mode to test something and after I rebooted it normally, some of the widgets on my home screen either disappear or show an error: could not load widget.

Is this normal?

That's strange, are those apps on the SD card?

This is normal. After safe mode, downloaded widgets needs to be added again while preinstalled widgets are still on the home screen.

@uliwooly

The widgets are all in the internal storage.

@Rickard

I see. It's currently working again (I rebooted few times and no error with loading the widgets. Previously some of the system widgets (stamina mode, clock, music) didn't load properly.

On another note, I realise that after my safe mode reboot (I'm now back in normal mode, my saved accounts only has Google (I need to readd others Eg Dropbox). Is this behaviour also normal?

Yes, also accounts created by downloaded apps are missing as well. The app itself keeps its data though.

I'm not sure why this happens but it might be that in safe mode, it's like the app has been removed so system apps, like our launcher, will think that the app has been uninstalled.

Okay, noted.
