accuweather widget vs lockscreen location updates
Same problem !
Stock Accuweather widget not updating current location, even if i force it to refresh !
whereas if u enable weather on the lockscreen ! it updates the position perfectly !! dunno what sense does it make not making the normal widget updating while lockscreen one does!!!!
anyone have a solution for this ? ive tried everything (removing,re-adding widget , removing cities in list..etc) but nothing worked.i dont recall this happens with most of the weather apps out there , my Desire HD does it perfectly with sense.
cheers

lol lock screen is working ???? this becomes really idiotic.

yup had the same problem so i switched to beautiful widgets and it works perfectly

yeah it is ridiculous !

do you have location enabled? wireless or GPS.
enable current location in the weather app only works if you have it enabled on the phone.

I find the problem, they create alot of places to feed with wheather, but it is all the same temperature, WHY THE **** ACCUWHEATHER?
Take a look in my situation, I live in Rio de janeiro and with all others apps of wheather locate me as Rio de Janeiro, JUST THE **** ACCUWHEATHER LOCATE ME AS NIGUAÇU and is a place, FAR, FAR WAY FROM ME. AT LEAST 2h by car, take a look at accuwheather map:

guess you need to check the accuweather support site as to why.
Many different weatherapps, try some

[Q] Unread messages widget in lockscreen

Hi guys, I would like to know if there is a way to add a widget in the lockscreen that displays the number of unread messages, and leads to them if clicked.
I mean something like on sgs2/3 stock rom (i don't remember if ace's stock had such a feature).
Thank you I'm advance.
PS: I'm on Apocalypse Rom, as my sig suggests!

use "SMS Unread Count" from https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5rYW5va2dlbXMuc21zd2lkZ2V0Il0.

Search play store for an app called "widget locker". It is a lockscreen replacement that allows you to design your own lockscreen, adding widgets, sliders etc. then just add one of the widgets suggested above.
let me know if this helped

Isnt the "GO" series generally known for high usage of cpu?
I have only tried GO locker when it was on beta, but not as a daily lockscreen...

Well, it doesn't no difference to my phone...performance and battery life still the same...

Buddy dont use any type of launcher except holo launcher as it saves battery next thing if u want widget for messages go to playstore hit widgets and messeging widget on lockscreen....... Or any lockscreen widget.........well enjoy buddy!!!!!!!!!

Instead of using such widgets i solved my problems with SMS pop-up app (as i wrote before). Very easy and more fast even than widgets!

Sometime, many lockscreen is not support add widget. You can download and install "Widget lockscree" from Playstore.

Problem with weather widget

Hello,
I have a problem with default installed Yahoo Weather widget.
Im living in Europe and the time was changed to winter time, one hour backward.
And since then the Yahoo Weather widget still shows me one hour + like in the summer time.
How can I change the time in Yahoo Weather widget?
Thanks.

My choice is the 3D Digital Weather Clock from Factory Widgets, giving you time, date, weather, week number, battery and moon phase at a glance.
Tapping hours and minutes opens app of choice (in my case Alarm Clock Plus and A HIIT Interval Trainer).
Tap weather for 5-day forecast, left corner for system status and right corner for app settings.

What he ^^^^^ said :good:
HD Widgets running on your choice of launcher (Nova is my favourite). I don't understand why anybody would want to stay on the stock ROM which is fixed to a 4x4 grid - looks butt-ugly on a screen the size of ours.
HD Widgets plus the HDW: Icon Pack for Tablets - only costs a couple of pounds and looks sweet.

Yeah got that problem too google doesnt seem to have the answer

Weather widget with Null?

Has anyone been successful at adding weather widgets to the Nova home screen? Is it possible for updates without tethering?
I searched the topic several places, but have been unable to find a clear answer.
Thanks

I installed Android weather & clock and sense analog clock widget and both work fine. Have to manually configure town and disable all GPS and things.
Mast3rbug

I went through quite a few to find a widget that displayed ok on the small screen. Eye in Sky was decent but I'm currently using Beautiful Widgets.
To my knowledge you must be tethered for third part widgets, otherwise you have to use the stock Weather widget.

best small simple weather widget?

any good simple one? with big icons and text/logo so i can see the current day temperature of my local city? thanks must work with null v23 rom
i don't have the samsung stock weather widget working

Best bet would be getting the stock samsung weather working.. You wont require a internet connection on your gear by doing it this way..
Accuweather....apk & WeatherDaemon.apk are needed on your phone for Samsung weather to work. Refer HERE for more info.
You can then use samsungs stock weather widget for custom text widgets, this is more a advanced user method tho.

The thing that annoys me about Samsung's stock accuweather which the gear seems dependent on unless you tether it to the internet is that it requires you to be outside with GPS on for any updates to show as far as weather, temperature, ect... At least that's what I determined on my setup and I looked everywhere in the widget's settings ect... on the phone for a way to change that and can't.

Need Help locating app
Can anyone tell me what this app/widget/lockscreen is? This is a screenshot from a youtube video, but its exactly what i'm looking for. bit.ly/2FQsXbf
