Genie Widget - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My genie weather widget does not seem to work.
its been 2 days, and it says no weather information is available.
Also, when i untick the automatic refresh, and try to put any city in the search, it doesnt find any.
does anyone know how to fix this?
thanks

Happened to me too, but it seems to be fixed now.

Same here. I put my postcode in and it found my town, but it can't seem to get the GPS position...

i still have the problem...
i also changed roms, same problem.

Yup, I'm in Sydney Australia and the weather section cannot locate weather info. Yet the Beautiful Widget can.
Something amiss here.
@21:07 OK .. it's back!

Weather forecast problem

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...

Hero FlipClock no weather?

K first off, not sure if this goes here or in Android Development where the Hero ROM's are..
Does anyone know why my FlipClock on any Hero ROM i run not show weather, I've only successfully managed to show weather on it in one ROM but I wasnt able to keep that one.
If so, how do I fix it?
It usually just takes a few minutes to update. Or it could be a rom specific issue, which you never said what rom you used to it's anybody's guess.
yeah sorry=\
I ran it on JacHeroSki, MoDaCo 1.5.1, and Drizzy 1.5.5, none of which work.
When I ran Drizzy's Hero Blur ROM, it WORKED! Much to my surprise.. But I couldnt keep the ROM cause of the SMS bug=\ Waiting until he releases a stable version of it so I can reflash it, but I'd still love to know how to get it working.
Normally when the flip clock is going toload the weather it states the city name then loads, my clock doesnt even do that.
Could it be an issue with your data connection? Are you running 3G?
all you have to do is open the weather app before you put the flip clock widget, if it doesn load withing 3-5 min, remove it and add it again, that should do it
try loading the weather apk. before putting the widget on your screen
K, thanks guys ill give it a try
I actually am having this issue on a G1 I recently installed Maxisma's 1.6.1. When I click the weather widget it tells me "activity is not ready to execute" Strange though as I have the same build installed on my MyTouch and it works just fine. All others with G1's aren't reporting this issue either.
I'm going to have to try loading the weather apk first to see if I can get it to update through there.
Try This
Click on where the weather should be
Once in the weather app, go to settings
Change to farenheight and exit out
Change back to celcius and exit fully out
Remove widget
add it back
Guaranteed to get you your weather, if not, you have another problem

Best weather app for Hero HTC?

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.

Villians 5.3 HTC Weather App only showing country Ireland

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.

[Q] Has anyone found a radar widget?

Has anyone found a radar widget for the GTab? Of all the weather widgets I have located, none of them actually offer an on-screen updating radar. I would even be happy with a hyperlink widget that can display the radar picture from a website and be set to update at certain intervals. Anyone have any ideas?
God Bless!
Look at weatherbug works great
Rainy Days
Thanks for the replies! However, neither of these apps offers a radar widget for the homescreens. This is what I'm really looking for.
Weatherbug can do it.. At least the pay version can, even animated so you can track storms! Its what i use...

Cool! It's not currently available in the Market...might be worth buying when it comes around again.
I ended up using a webcam widget linked to a doppler radar image on a weather website. I can't remember the exact name of the widget, but there are a few of them on the market. It refreshes the image every few minutes to keep it up to date. It doesn't do anything like zooming or animations (it -might- if the image you link to is an animated gif or something), but it's just a quick reference for me, and if I need more details or animations I just jump into weatherbug.

This is EXACTLY what I'm looking for!!! Thanks!!! I will try to find something that does that!
EDIT: I found Webcam Widget on the Market. It work PERFECTLY! You simply plug in the address and it automatically updates every 30 minutes. VERY basic...but, you can run multiple instances of the widget and it resizes well while keeping the aspect ratio of the radar image. Thanks again for the jump start in the right direction!
Which webcam widget did you nd up using?

The actual app is called Webcam Widget...I tried some others, but this one works fine and is VERY simple.
