I'm using the HTC Flip Clock widget and it automatically updates my location. It was working fine last night and now its not. I'm right now in Woodridge, IL and my flip clock still shows Matteson, IL weather. I know it's not that big of a difference in weather based on 30-35 miles, but I just want it to sync to the correct location. Under "My Location sources", I have use wireless networks and enable gps satellites selected. If this was a pre-existing hero rom issue, please forgive me. I didn't find anything when I searched. Any positive feedback would be greatly appreciated.
why dont you try refreshing it and if that doesnt work then just delete the widgt and then add it again.

open up the main weather app, check the setting, and hit refresh. If its not working than I would say whatever ROM you have has issues with the weather app.
With my flip clock, it doesnt update unless i manually do it. On the next page, i put a full-screen weather widget and hit the update bar at the bottom of the weather widget. this in turn will update the flip clock.

How often does everyones weather update, mine goes for days without updating unless I click the update button.....
Cheers
It won't update automatically unless you tell it to....supposedly
You need to tap on the city name at the top of the plugin, then when the city list is displayed, tap on Menu | Weather Options and make sure the "Download weather data automatically" is checked.
That's the theory at least - mine is ticked and like you, I have to tap on the weather panel on the home screen to get the damn thing to update
There is another option - "Download when roaming", but I've not ticked that box....might be worth a try?
Cheers,
Mark.

Download HTC HOME,
Look at disfanto's cab collection for the hermes. All of them pretty much works on the kaiser, and for more on how to put your own city into the weather database use the search button, since im to lazy too.
Thanks all for the help.... didnt even notice the options menu in the city select.......
Im having a problem with the weather app, when I set the location to Montevideo (where I live) I can't scroll through the graph which is suppoused to show hourly temperature. It's weird because it works fine with any other location
I'm running froyo
Can anyone test it with your nexus one, setting the location to Montevideo in the weather app, to see if it works fine
Thanks
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
Sorry for the probably stupid question, but I don't seem to be able to get the AccuWeather Widget on the lock screen to update the location. It keeps showing the same city, even when I am hundreds of miles away. I turned on the GPS, rebooted, enabled/disabled weather on lock screen, etc... Anybody have any ideas?
The phone is not rooted and has a stock ICS ROM.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
Anybody?
click on the widget and it opens a dialog where you need to search for your city. After choosing it you'll get the weather updates
Thanks, but it still shows the same city, even though I am almost 400 miles away.
I'm in Vienna, Austria and it shows Gaudenzdorf.
Widget works ok. The only problem is location on lock screen.
I think it's a bug.
All,
Maybe someone else has an answer to this. I have a Gear 1, with Tizen on it (Rooted) and a Galaxy S5 connected.
In Gear Manager, the ONLY option I seem to have with weather is to use location based services (on/off). If it is off, weather does NOT show up on the Gear at all.
When it is on, it shows the weather and updates fine, but the city name is completely wrong, although it appears that the weather forecast is fine. The city name is likely being pulled form Accuweather using location based services. (lets call it "city1")
Now the weird part. I also have the "Weather & Clock Widget" version 3.7.9 on my S5, with my city typed in, not using location based services. ( "city2" )
On the gear, when I touch the weather, it shows me a screen for "city1" that I can tap and go to the accuweather forecast. I can also scroll right and see "city2" that I can also tap and see an accuweather forecast for it (which is the same forecast)
Now that everyone is confused, I guess my question is: Can I use the weather WITHOUT location based services on my Gear ? I typically like to have that turned off on my S5 (to save battery)
I want one option for weather to show up on my Gear, and want it to be "city2" ... the correct city name.
Your post gave me a headache. But when I turn location off in Gear Manager the other cities I input manually in the Samsung weather widget still appear (and update). I'm using a N3.

Imagine me writing it ! lol
When I turn of location services in Gear Manager (Weather) ... the watch will not show any weather at all, just a message that says: "Tap here to use location info on mobile device"
when it is turned on, it seems to be pulling down 2 weather forecasts.
