Hi, i know this is not directly an issue with the inc s, but i've googled this everyway i can think of and comeup with nothing. Has anyone else noticed that just lately the location for the weather services seems to have gone vague? Instead of giving me my location down to city/town level, the best i get is "united kingdom" . It's also the same on my galaxy nexus using fancy widgets. So i don't think its device specific, was just wondering if anyone else had noticed?

This may be a really stupid question, but is it possible to create a tab for practically anything? I know they have updated the Weather Tab in the Touch HD to pull more weather data, and there is also the stock tab where you can get stock info right from the tab. My question is if these tabs can be formatted to show anything from an internet source or feed. For example sports scores or news. I've seen this in Bell's UI for the TP, but is it possible to do if you can find the right source? I don't know how to program and wouldn't be able to do this, I was just throwing it out there as a question to see if its possible. Thanks!
does anyone have any ideas on this?
yeah I'm quite interested in this also.. i was thinking facebook or messenger tab?
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,

Have a look on http://yr.no and see if tour local town or city is on there.
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!
Hey guys, just recently my GN&W widget either stopped displaying the top stories section completely or just has 1-3 articles in there at a time.. has this happened to anybody else? and if so, what have you done about it?
This is happening to me as well. Maybe they are retooling Google news. I hate the new Google news website
this is happening to me too and is really annoying. i also assumed that its related to the google news overhaul but i would expect there to be more complaints about this. it makes it seem like not everyone has this issue.
What are you talking about, exactly?
I don't see any problems here yet

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
on my phone when i go into the news and weather app, sometimes the "Top Stories" category is completely missing and other times it only has 1 or 2 items under "Top Stories". if i clear the data for news and weather then top stories will return, but show only 5 items instead of the full 10. as soon as i do any type of refresh the items disappear.
my nexus one is on frf91 and is completely stock.
Ok thanks
I don't have these problems with my rooted N1 on CyanogenMod 6 RC2
I'm also experiencing the exact same issue on stock frf91...quite annoying ;\
I did some looking around today, to no avail. Im looking for an app that I can use while driving that has quick links to music, calls, gps, etc. I found like 1, but it was really really ugly. Has anyone seen anything like this?
I just want something so that I dont have to navigate all the way through my phone while driving.
Search the Market for Captivate and there is a free one from Samsung called "Car Home"
Youre my hero. Ive never done that, I didnt know samsung had any device specific apps. Thank you very much for the fast response =]
I can't find this for the life of me, and tried various ways to search for it in the market.
I just cant seem to get it.
maybe its AT&T restricted?
does anyone have the apk for this?
FYI i'm using an Australian Telstra Sim, and stock JH7 AT&T
