This is a completely separate issue, and known behavior in the Android
platform -- when you place a shortcut on your desktop, you are putting a
shortcut to a specific activity inside of the app.  If the updated app has
changed the class of this activity, the shortcut will still exist referring
to the old activity and no longer work.  It is fixed by deleting the
shortcut and creating a new one.
