Hi,
Long time lurker reading through all the posts and following the great villian now on the 5.3 since this morning and loving it.
But I have had a problem since I started with Villians roms my HTC Weather App always just shows Ireland the weather updates fine and seems to be correct. I have added Dublin in fine but it still will not change.
When I used Mondocos it worked very well giving me all the towns I went through
The phone knows exactly where I am in google maps with either the gprs or just network selection would love to get the feauture working again
Have you tried removing the widget, then adding it back to your home screen? It should ask you what city you would like, then just type in Dublin.

Hello all, for now about one week, I can't download the weather forecast using the HTC home application. Every other internet accesses work fine, I just can't update the weather forecast for my city or any other city in the world...
Does anyone else have this problem ?
try reselecting a listed city,i had the same issue when i first installed but reselection worked for me and choosing correct temperature measurement
I tried many other cities, but the problem is still there...
i added the 4x1 htc calendar widget today and noticed an odd problem. if i add something to my calendar, the 4x1 widget displays it a day earlier. if today were wednesday and i scheduled a meeting on friday, the smaller widget would show the meeting as being "tomorrow" (thursday). does anyone know what might cause this? i'm running a hero rom, btw.
TIA!
I have the same problem plus mine is showing "no entries today" when there are entries for yesterday, today and tomorrow. Very unreliable.
I have the same problem where events on Saturday are showing on Thursday as 'Tomorrow'. I am using the MoDaCo Custom ROM 2.9 with teknologist 1.8. I'm sure it used to work ok a few months ago but can't really check without wiping my phone. I'll post this to the Modaco forums and see if Paul can shed any light on it.
yea, it's a weird occurance. annoying so much that i've completed removed that small widget atop my main screen and replaced it with the google search bar. sad, i like that small calendar widget...
Wrong time on SMS messages.
especially on the Rogers network in Canada
this should work with all roms though so far i only tested it on My Hero 1.1.3
Instructions:
1. ---- Go to Settings > Date & Time
2. ---- Disable Automatic
3. ---- Go to "Select Time Zone"
4. ---- **** IMPORTANT ****
Start at time zone 0:00 - check your SMS time stamps (use a recent one and compare, it also helps if you temporarily use 24 hour time until you find your time zone)
then move up to +1:00 and see if the time stamp gets closer to what it should be, if it gets closer, move to +2:00 and check again,
+3:00, +4:00 etc.
if not go to -1:00 and check, -2:00, -3:00, -4:00 etc.
5. --- After you find your time zone, fix the date and then your done
**KNOWN ISSUE*** your appointments may have the wrong time!! so you might have to move some of them to the proper time!!
For Alberta the Time zone to fix SMS is -2:00
please post settings for different areas

i was having this problem till i updated my phone to a new release of the rogers rom.......
Toronto
GMT-0 for Toronto
There is a app in the market called smsfixtimes and its working with all the recent hero/sense roms I have tried recently. And if you use this program all your other times in the phone won't get messed up (ie. gmail, exchange email and calender)

Worked!!! Thank you man. That was one of the biggest things bugging me about the Hero ROM but and the timezone fix wasn't what i wanted (my calender and emails were off).
Now just to fix the camera button back to the camera button instead of search.

Ya I tried this app a few times, it seems to work at first but it always seems to bugg out and revert back to the wrong time stamps. (running My Hero 1.1.3)
yeah but what if it timestamps it with the wrong year? mine shows today as 7/7/16
So I tried this fix. It did not work for me. Im in Hawaii and my incoming sms are 1 hour off. If I change my time zone one hour in one way it makes no difference then further that way and its 2 hours off. But if I go the other way it is 2 hours off.
My phone is a Sprint branded TP2 it was like this when using this phone on sprint network and also when using my straight talk sim card in it. I think the networks think we participate in the daylight savings thing. Well we dont. Our time never changes. It seems to be correct during the winter months.
Just wondering what your thoughts are on best weather app for this phone?
I would use the native one, but it thnks I am in the state of Washington when I am really in Washington, IL.
I am currently using Weatherbug but I find it annoying that I have to tell it every time I reboot the phone to set location, when I have already set my default location to where I am (I even have it checked to use my current network location) but the widget on the home screen stays blank. When I click on the widget, it pulls up Washington, IL and gives me the information, but when I back out, the widget just stays blank, freaking frustrating.
Is their anything else out there worth trying, or anything else I can do to fix this issue I am having with Weatherbug?
And also, my understanding with the HTC Hero weather widget is that it is a known issue and has to be fixed with a firmware/software update, right?
Thank you,
Whiteice
In my opinion the Snowstorm widget is the best, and it looks great aswell..

I'll second snowstorm. I was using weatherbug elite but the forecast data wasn't great and quite often was for the wrong date.
Snowstorm looks far better and has much more detailed forecasts imo.
Just to clarify something, I am in the US as I am seeing a lot of references to the UK and Norway for this program. Not complaining about, I used to live in Scotland years ago (Edzel, Dundee, sister was born there.)
Is this program something I can use being in the US or is it strictly something that would be used overseas?
Thank you,
Whiteice
Have a look on http://yr.no and see if tour local town or city is on there.
I'm not sure if this is already common knowledge or not but I figured I noticed that before I do an update to Nav Launcher, Navigation works perfectly. After I update, the GPS signal will drop.
If this is a repost / common knowledge I apologize and please disregard but I figured I would share for those who were not aware of this.
Ok I'm curious now - is it like this for anyone else? Does everyone already know about this? Thanks lol
Google Nav has always been dropping signal since the very beginning. Does not matter the ROM or version of Nav Launcher, at least that's my experience.
ROM I've Tried:
SenseHero
SenseTatoo
mssmison eclair-Various releases
Myn donut -Release 3 and 4
Plemen donut - Various releases

Hmmmm...See I'm running Myn release 4 WITHOUT updating Nav Launcher and it's been working without a hitch... for trips longer than 20 minutes.

Must be my phone.
Yeah, sometime it last for a while, most of the time it just keep on dropping.
I have assisted gps enable..could it be it?
What radio version are you using?
i honestly have never had a problem with google navigation
That app has never worked well for me. OK ONE time it kept a connection all the way to work, but it's never worked for more than 30 seconds ever since.
Every other time I've tried, it acts like it's going to work then starts "Searching for GPS". I can enable the GPS within regular Google maps and it stays connected, and I can use the nav app called "Copilot" and once it connects it stays connected.
Hmmm well I'm not sure what causes other problems if GPS isn't working right to begin with, but if you are having trouble with Nav, try rolling back to original version included when installing Google Maps... don't update Nav Launcher. It works perfect for me now.
Google Maps Nav now works in Canada
I'm not sure if this is relevant, but google maps nav on android now works in more countries than just US/UK. For canadians, at least, this is a huge bonus.
search 'google maps navigation countries'
requirements: android 1.6+
Thought i'd pass that on to the populace. Just fired up the HTC touch and tried the google nav (not the launcher) and it popped up successfully for me (the first time I've tried it in weeks).
