Since this morning my weather app. is not working anymore and I'm using the HTC HOME plug in it says " Unable to retrieve data for selected city. Select here to retry."
Can someone help me. I removed them already, reinstall them but doesn't work with any city.
Help please.
Just checked mine and it updated fine... Everything else working fine like browsing, checking emails, etc.?
Might want to copy that entire message into Google along with 'HTC Home Customizer' and do a search. There's various links to threads in them but I couldn't look too in-depth as to what the problem might be from.
Good luck!
There looked to be a post on here too but it was like 50+ pages, yikes!

Looked ok at first but digging further mine hasn't updated since Sunday 11/25.
Same problem with the weather here too. The last time I checked it was this morning, and it has stopped working since. I tried some random cities, and they did not work either.
(georgemera, try to be more specific with the thread title (e.g., at least, HTC Home weather not updating). I wouldn't have bothered reading if I didn't accidentally click it...)
me too
I'm also experiencing this issue, I haven't seen an update since Sun. I've been roaming all over the US since Thurs. but this has been my only issue. I too have searched but don't yet have a working fix. Anyone know if this is an AT&T-specific issue? I see that T-Mobile customers have had this problem in the past.

No problem...its actually really simple. Click on the City if you already have one selected as I guess you do. Then click on menu > weather options > and select fahrenheit.

thanx alot
The HHC custom database pulls the data from a different weather server. During the install, this reg key is modified to redirect any requests from your phone going to htc.accuweather.com to this other server. Most likely the server is not responding.
I found this in the registry...
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Tcpip\Hosts\htc.accuweather.com]
"ipaddr"=hex:40,3E,9E,6C
This points htc.accuweather.com to 64.62.158.108
I found this thread and it has HTC Home 2.1 there. Now the cities are added directly to the XML file (different format) and the new patched Home app reads zip codes too. I'm getting data again.
From reading thru the thread, it looks like N2A (guy running the weather server) has disabled the IP based weather server, or something to that effect. anyways, the new version and method of adding cities works for me.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319187
Can someone tell me how to fix this please.
Thanks in advance.
follow the link I provided above. On that thread you will find the Schen's 2.1 Home cab install. Remove your exisiting install of home, d/l and install this new one, then follow the directions in that thread for adding your city.
I do notice that on my Weather screen it doesn't auto update until I go to it, then it takes like 15secs but I'm not gonna mess with it. Apparently I'm pretty lucky here compared to others...

that's the way it works, HTCs idea of auto is refresh when I get there, not refresh in background. no worries, it usually goes pretty fast....

Sweet, i just changed mine on my Touch that runs on Cricket and gps works
Thanks!
does anyone know how to enable the light on the back to automatically come on when the camera starts. Right now i have to click on the screen then click settings then click flash light, i would just like to skip all that. thanks
up and up and up
This feature would actually make the camera act like a camera....lol
Really wish HTC and Microsoft would finish their programs. It seems like they start it and quickly make everthing work....sort of.....lol
waiting for this too...

to go left or right you actually need to click between the buttons (ex. between home and call) there is actually a youtube video teaching people how to do it.

well you are correct, it still hit the ok if i go fast but i can live with that but i still want my flash to come on when the camera comes on
thanks for the tip and making me look stupid lol
for athena it is not a setting in registry. just DeviceIoControl calls to set led on and off, while camera program is running. i wouldn't be surprised if touch pro is the same :/
in that case easiest i could think of is make a small app that does:
1) look in registry for setting if flashlight should be on or off when starting camera
2) load driver (or the camera api dll) and send the ioctl for ON if the registry value is set so
3) then it would launch the camera exe and then exit
4) whole thing would be registered in place of camera program for programs etc
(or patch camera app but that would be a bit more than a couple of bytes long patch. )

I don't think it polls the light sensor unless somethings wrong with mine cause i just went into a dark room waited about 30sec then turned on the camera and no flash unless i turned it on manually

I was implying that if someone could write a script or something that they could poll the light sensor to see if it was dark. Then tell the camera to turn on the flash.....lol
That's what i wish would happen. Thanks for testing it out though...lol

What about skipping the polling and just having the flash on every time the camera is on day or night. Girls love a flash going off.
Maybe there is a command line for this?

Auto flash on camera??
Is there a rom/cab/file/tweak that gets the cameras flash to work automatically as opposed to having to manually turn it on - this is silly!

it's semi-automatic if you turn it on, it's only lighting half's its power. When you take a shot it's flashes
However, you're absolutly right, we need more options
nope, i couldnt find it. In the past there was an other HTC model (dont remember which one) who also had a flash light but also didnt work aswell.
This is in development right now. There is a thread regarding this. I am just to lazy to search for it today.
cool well its good to know its in development, i cuoldnt find it either - Xperia has the saem problem
strange really but hope they sort it out its time cnsuming and annoying - seeingas we are able to use things like Htorch i cant see it being a big deal unfortunately i cant cook otherwise id be on it
any news with this?

Hi
I have got my new note 5 few days ago and enjoying it. However, the scroll capture option is missing. I tried in different apps and websites but it is not there. Someone asked the same question and he said it was fixed by clearing catch without further info. I cleared catch and data for both air comand and screen write but it is still missing. Any help is appreciated. Ss attached

Are you using package disabler pro? You may have disabled something you needed for that to work. Try reenabling everything to see if that fixes it.

Are you at the bottom of the page when you did the screen shot?
It only works if you use the screen write option with the S Pen. A regular screenshot doesn't do the scroll capture thing.
thanks guys for trying to help. I cleared cache and data for both air command and screen write and restarted my phone and now scroll capture is there
Can you please explain me how you got your scroll capture back? I didnt understand this "air command,screen write".
Hi All,
I got the Nexus 6 a few weeks ago and I like it pretty well though I'm having a hard time figuring out how to work it lol. One major thing I'm not understanding - it seems to have no picture storage in the phone itself that I can find. Is this correct? There's no "Gallery" or anything - all I can get into is my google photos. Which would be okay I guess except that not everything saves to Google Photos. For example:
Last night I took a picture with the camera app I use (Camera 360) and edited it in another app (don't remember which one - it was an in memory pic so I just needed to add some text). Anyways, I saved it and it said it was saving to the phone, however, it's not anywhere in the google photos. I couldn't find it anywhere. But then when I went to Facebook it popped up in my options to upload a photo. So it has to be saving somewhere!
I also have a lot of issues with photos from Camera 360, Instagram, FB, and other apps doing the same thing - they'll show in my FB options or if I click within the Camera 360 app on the preview area but they don't show in Google Photos or anywhere else on the phone.
Can anyone explain this to me please?
Thanks!

No. I don't really use the cloud. I want to be able to access everything physically on the phone if possible but I'll look into that too.
I thought it didn't have an SD card slot so how to I check what you said at the end there? If there's no SD card then how would it be saving to an SD Card? Sorry... I'm not the brightest with this kind of thing.

I actually had that on my last phone and liked it but there was a weird glitch on my old phone where it wouldn't let me delete anything. Even if I deleted pics from the phone gallery they would still show in QuickPic. Then if I tried to delete them in there it gave me a weird error. I could probably try it on the new phone again here though!
I did download the file manager and that seems like it will work perfect.

Isn't there is device folder at the left side of the menu in the google photo app. I usually find all the picture there, screenshoot and stuff like that.

Do consider backing it up to the cloud. That way, if your phone dies or gets lost/damaged, you won't be stuck trying to figure out how to recover your pictures. Google Photos app gives you unlimited storage for your photos (just don't choose "original resolution"). The photo/video will still be there on your phone, but will have a backup on the cloud.

Yes, I do the same. Tap the menu icon on the left side of Goole Photos App, and then tap "Device Folders",
This will show OP all the local camera photos in DCIM, as well as any screenshots/downloads, etc

Hmm. I'm confused. Maybe I do this and just didn't know it was called the cloud? Right now my photos from my last like 4 phones are in my "Google Photos" and I can access them all on any phone I've had, on the computer, etc. So they're already stored in Google Photos?

Go to photos.google.com and sign in with your google account. See if your photos are showing there. If yes, then you are good - they are being backed up. You can verify the settings in the photos app on your phone too - settings/backup and sync. Verify that it is on, and that upload size is high quality (or you can choose original - but that will not be unlimited)
I have the rear camera set to Save RAW and JPEG files. I also have the camera app set to save to SD card. However, when I take a picture, I only get a JGP. I've looked in the DCIM subdirectories on both the SD card and Internal memory. I only see the JPGs on the SD card.
I've got to just be missing something stupid. Any ideas what that may be?
kbanes
Was about to ask the same question. Where's the raw???
did you switch your camera into Pro mode? I think it won't shoot RAW in Auto or burst mode. Otherwise you'll have 2 pictures next each other, with JPG and DNG extensions.

Another awesome and useful (for me anyways) tip, when recording VIDEO with the flash on, you can tap centre of screen and drag the flash brightness adjustment up or down to adjust. I've been wanting this feature since my Note 4 and it finally exists.

You can also say "Open camera in Pro mode" with Bixby
Still, where is the RAW copy saved? I can't see it anyhere with "My Files" neither in gallery. Adobe Lightroom shows nothing if I only leave the "RAW" option checked. Yes, of course I have tried in Pro mode and the RAW saving is enabled.
LE : Problem solved. You can't use custom color tone. Only thing is, i didn't get the error when i switched into Pro mode.
Sorry, how can I turn custom color tone off.

This has been a really helpful discussion for me, pretty much a neubie, though only realised this when I hadn't tried swiping right in camera in over a year of use!
Could someone be kind enough to share how can I turn custom color tone off. I'm not exactly begging, well actually I am.

Sorry for the really late reply. I hope you found out by now.
If not, you just have to open the "Tone" tab which is in line with the other settings like ISO, exposure time etc and just reset the setting
hi guy, are you ok with a problem? Can you check saving raw file => switch to camera pro mode => reset filter to Standard mode => take picture (raw,jpg)
