Description:
When the user flashes a new flame build, or has an app Out-of-Memory and drop the user back to homescreen, the user may observe the phone's homescreen reveal their wallpaper, but display no icons or the search bar. If the user were to open and close task manager, the homescreen will begin to draw itself slowly back into place, indicating that it may have missed a draw trigger at some point.
For a potentially easier repro, try to add a custom ringtone on flame devices from settings: bug 1188603. Share activity closes and returns user to broken homescreen.

Repro Steps:
1) Update a Flame to 20150728030208
*) Actual Results
-- or --
2) Open the Browser app
3) Open the website 'www.youtube.com'
4) Play any video
5) Force close browser app

Actual:
Homescreen displays no apps or search bar

Expected:
Homescreen displays all apps and search bar

== or steps from bug 1188603 ==
1) Update a Flame to 20150728030208
2) Open Settings app
3) Tap 'Sounds'
4) Tap 'Manage Tones'
5) Tap '+' in top right

Actual:
Homescreen displays no apps or search bar

Bug 1186587 is backed out, so this should be resolved. Can we try to verify once you have a build with that backout?
