I think the problems I didn’t have my homescreen locked. I didn’t know I had too. Some how I lost them. The main home screen I still have; but the others I used when with my Chrome browser and I used “add to home screen” they disappeared.
I think because I didn’t locked my home screen. I also didn’t have a backup file. So I realize now that I lost those page and I have to start over. At least my home page are locked now so it won’t happen again.
Thanks
