Hey guys, i installed last night the Weather widget and set it up in my homescreen. So this morning when i wake up the phone is dead, pressing menu or holding down power button does nothing. Thank God when i pulled out the battery and put it back again the phone comes alive. So i noticed that if the widget is running, as soon the screen timeout kicks in, the phone dies. Right now i disabled the widget and the phone is working fine.
Anyone else had this problem ?

Hi,
Yet another strange thing I am having. For setting the weather location in LG's home clock/weather widget I select "current location". Can it really be tru that it does not update likek the HTC weather? I can't use a weather report based on eg. my home address when I travel 100 km for work!

Seems to be a problem, yes because there is no proper configuration...
It's a great widget but it also updates (refreshes) very slowly and this can not be adjusted.
You travel 100km for work!
I also had a problem with changing my location.
The solution was de-install and install the widget again.
Then you can change the temp, location, time whene to update etc..

You can get the that screen after hitting the weather picture on the icon then menu then settings... but it's doesn't have a "follow me" or "update frequency" option as far as I can tell.

No, I can't find any further options. How can You de-install / install something built in the OS? Are You rooted??

Yeah, 104 KM to be exact. Each way...but its 7 days on/off.
your not exactly de-installing it you remove the widget from your screen. hold it and then drag it to the bin. Then you put the widget back.

I have tried this several times but it does still not give me as much options as You state. No update freq. change! And still it does not update on current location unless I manually click inside the widget.
I also just bought the phone so the method is a bit extencive.
what you can do is push on the widget so that if wil onfold.
Then press on the left button next to the home button.
and press options.
You than can change the temp. as in fahrenheit or celcius.
You can also ad multiple locations.
You can't do anything about the auto update.
Use Fancy Widget, there is a fee version on marked works very nice.
Its pitty. This widget is really beautifull, even with animations. Only think which I am missing is refresh rate setting :-( I hope that this can be solved in near future...
yap, the widget its beautiful, can anyone has a fixed in this one, i'm from New Zealand, Daylight saving just began, but the clock of the widget still the same. the actual clock is different to the clock of the widget, even the update is at the button of the widget +1 hour . see picture. thanks
I am sure some of you may already know this. But this is for those of you who haven't.
If you use a custom rom and find power widget not showing up properly, you don't actually have to reboot the phone to get it working. Just play a little with the display settings. What I did was turn off automatic brightness in settings>display and turn it back on. The power widget should now show up properly
Turn on wifi over status bar and it will show the icons on the power widget.
Thanks to share that information...

Wifi or bluetooth and it will show up just right... Strange behaviour isn't it?
Thanks for the helpful information !
it all started with my galaxy s3. one day i noticed that the clock widget was not responding to any tap. it still worked for the time just fine. but when you clicked it, it did nothing. i started using another alarm app. so i could have a alarm. i have purchased a galaxy s5 now and after transferring all of my data, guess what? the clock is not responding to a tap. it will not pull up the alarm, stopwatch, timer menu. i can go into the actual clock app and it works fine. i have done a factory reset on both phones with no luck. it seems all my friends clock widgets operate properly. is there something i am missing?

Which clock widget?
You can try by giving restore clock widget.
It seems that all clock Widgets will not respond even the factory ones.
I have enabled widgets on the lock screen (Settings > Security...). From time to time I can see a big + (plus) sign on the lock screen, and by tapping it I am able to pick up a widget. After unlocking and locking again, the widget is gone and there is no plus sign anymore.
Does someone know what causes the plus sign to show up or how to revoke it?

The + sign is showed when you swipe left or right starting from the upper right or left corner of the screen.
I don't know for the rest of your problem, sorry ^^
Widgets don't disappear, they're just on another screen of your lockscreen. Swipe left or right around your clock and widgets you added will show. It's stupid, and it takes more than one try at first, but it is what it is.
You are both right. Now it works, but it is kind of useless.
Thanks anyway.

Well, I decided not to use lock screen. Now, with press of the power button I have everything needed at my disposal with no limits.

I have another question regarding lock screen. How do you change pop up menu on p7 lock screen. In the bottom row are calendar, calculator, torch and mirror and above used to be weather icons. After reseting my phone for other reasons weather icons are gone and something alse now appears. Does anyone know how to change it to weather again?

Isn't that related to the theme? I don't have them either so I can't be sure.
Is anyone else having this issue? I use Beautiful Widgets to keep the current weather conditions on my phone. I've used it for years (and I've seen this problem from time to time before). The information on the widget just freezes after a day or so (sometimes less). The time is frozen, the weather and temperature are frozen. If I press on the widget, it launches the appropriate app which will display the correctly updated information. When I close the app, the widget is still frozen. I switched to Accuweather (to see if it was just Beautiful Widgets) and it did the same. I tried Google's News and Weather App/Widget. It does the same thing. Is it my phone? Is it a Lollipop bug? Any suggestions/solutions will be appreciated!

I'm having the same issue, and the OTA 5.1 update did nothing to fix it. Did you ever find a solution?
Further, this happens to me even with stock widgets like Google Calendar.
The 5.1 update seems to have helped this problem. I have noticed it once in the past couple weeks since I updated but not nearly as often as before the update.
I have been having this issue for a while now. Found a random thread that someone said to try disabling auto update of apps in the play store app and that did seem to work. But now it is has been happening even with that setting off. I use a Chronus flex widget that has time and weather, the time is fine but weather part of widget does not update. If I try another weather widget I get the same issue, it won't update even when I refresh the screen the widget brings up. The only thing that works is a reboot, and then eventually it stops updating again.
Any ideas on what is really causing this? Right now my Moto X is completely stock because I re-flashed the stock everything trying to get Android Pay to work.
