Hello,
I am enjoying the Hero builds but I have a "request" at anybody who can help me/us:
I would like to use the HTC weather widget but it does not seem to update for about 4 hours or more.
It would be great when it would update hourly so I would not have to start the weather app which always delays the loading of the home screen so I have a lag about 10 or more second ...
Is it possible to change the update frequency somewhere in the app?
Do you know why there is always the com.htc.dcs.impl & com.htc.dcs.stock running when using the weather widget?
Would be really great if you could help me with this update thing, thank you.
Why dont you just update it manually? I think on the bottom of the weather widget if you click on the little bar it should update. I cant be 100% sure on this cause I'm on cyan 3.6.5. Please someone with hero correct me if im wrong.
neone notice tht the flip clock widget is only slow when weather is enabled..so when u install hero n u got no wifi its without weather so its fast....neone know how to make it flip clock w/o weather ?

Yes, you are right when you use the biggest widget which needs a full homescreen.
But when you use the two smaller widgets (I have it on to left at my main homescreen) there is no button for update - so the only possibility is to change the config somewhere I think?
Has really no one any idea?

I believe the only to have the flip clock with out weather is to not have the weather set up for your location. Correct me if I am wrong. I have seen the clock without weather after using the hero roms and was puzzled because I had no weather. I set it up and it appeared. The opposite thing should work for you.

i think the only way to get the flip clock without weather is to not have your clock set up
let me elaborate
when u select the clock app you have cities set up right?
like i have atlanta on there
and then u also have the timzone clock and the extra clock i always have that shows up which is gay but w/e back on topic
when u select the flip clock from htc widget screen it asks u to select a city
if u select current city (not an actual city name) the weather wont show up on the clock
thats the only way i can get the clock without weather
hope it helps :-D
JUST install the weather widget from the market it contains the clock from hero and the weather...works on the Cynaogen build...1.49 from market but works good...

I think when you press the current city it looks for your location

yes, but I know how the weather is at my current location - also it does not update automatically ...
if you want a flip clock without weather, try retro date (and clock) from market

Maybe it works like the flip clock/ weather widget. When I wanted to change the frequency (update interval) the only way I could find was to drag the widget to the trash bin and then re-launch it from the home screen (like most widgets) then it asks for location and update frequency like a fresh install.

hmm - the HTC Weather or flip clock widget does not ask for the frequency ... I think it must be in the file / apk - but where & how?
I'm looking for a flipclock without weather on it as well....
Solved the update frequency issue if you're still wondering about it.

Htc Flip clock
I'm Running the largest flip clock with weather on latest cm build with no issues make sure you have it exluded form any task managers
On the main Clock with the Weather under it, is there a way to stop it from trying to sync/update the weather everytime you unlock the phone?
I can't find a setting for this anywhere, I like having the weather and clock there, but it needs to stop killing performance when it doesn't need to check weather but every hour or so.
Click on the weather/clock and hit menu and go to settings. You can turn off automatic update.
That only seems to turn it off on the weather application- not the clock.
Installed the Asus Weather Widget. Under the CM9 Settings, I ticked Google's location service. In the Weather Widget settings, I selected Auto-refresh my current location, and every hour. it's 10:12pm and it said it's Clear and there's a picture of the sun behind some clouds. Is that normal for the Touchpad?
Same thing happens to me...
Hello, As you know, sense (both in lockscreen and app drawer) shows a weather figure (clouds, sun...) about the weather in the place we are at the moment
That means
1) it is searching everytime where we are so it wastes battery
2) In my case, I often go out my town. As I have weather sync set in once a day, If I move out my town, It just does not show the figures aymore, it shows "weather not synced", as It does not have data of my new place
3)I cant turn location off for saving battery because If I do that, weather is not shown either
I hope you understand me XD Thank you so much
This has been frustrating me for months!! It should be simple but it seems I run into the same problem every time I try a new ROM. There is a digital clock on the screen but without weather. So I, remove that widget and select one that does have weather. It installs and takes me to the "settings" for the widget. I choose the setting for the "clock" and then open the settings for weather. It says there is no weather service provider so I click the add one and choose the first one in the list which is Yahoo. It install fine and now says the weather provider is Yahoo. So I click "done" and for a brief second the correct widget appears on the desktop but immediately disappears to be replace by the original widget without the weather. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG????
