Weather Service Provider - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Currently the Weather Widget has a default service provider, which is Accuweather (and i have to say i'm not that impressed with it's accuracy) does anyone know if this can changed to use Google Weather for example?
I've had a good look but can't seem to find anything in the stock settings which will enable such a change.

You have to install another weather application. And use their widgets. HD weather or 1st weather could be.

HTC Widgets without Hero ROM

I've searched and searched and haven't come up with a definite answer.
Can the HTC Widgets be used on Cyanogen, or any non-Hero ROM?
No.
Definite enough?
No, short answer, the hero widgets were built for rosie/sense whatever you want to call it, basically it's another home replacement app. Widgets are not compatible with standard launcher.
Like above the answer is no. Although there are a few widgets on the market that look like the htc wigdets.
Beautiful Widgets-Digital Clock Widget
Contact Bar- People bar
Pure Grid Calender- Calender Widget
Pure Messenger Widget- Email/Message Widget
Damn, all I really wanted was the peep twitter widget, but I'll live I guess haha
Use Twidgit Lite!
I've always wondered since a Home Replacement is basically a stand alone app, and widgets on the standard sdk can't be animated like the hero's in most cases.
Couldn't we just make a HR that runs applications as widgets type of thing.
Like if anyones run a pulse rom and used taskiller you'll see it's cards widgets or whatever it's called running and working with sense UI styles.
I don't see why we can't just run touchflo on cyanogen... most Hero ROMs are based on 1.5 right now, so... hmmm

Thanks! Found it! However, with the limitations it imposes (not able to scroll and have more than 4 contacts) I think I will pass on this one, for now. Dev states they are working on a solution for that, once found, it would be worth the purchase for me.
I have purchased many apps, especially the Pure apps (Calendar widget, Grid calendar widget and Messenger widget) that help make the phone look/perform nicely.
Keep up the great work Dev's!

Also known as touchflo. Download a taskmanger and see what the process is called...

Might there be alternatives to these HTC widgets that I'd be able to use on my 1.6 based g1?

That is the HTC-Sense weather widget.. but could also be a modded version since it doesn't seem to be running on HTC-Sense (different launcher app).
Check out Beautiful Widgets in the Market, they used to have a similar widget.
Or check with the maker of the screenshot ;-)
so, is there a way to get the htc additions?
thx4help,

Weather and toggle widget donate has the same widget when you skin it

If you are not running a rom with Sense UI then the answer is no because it the apps and widgets require a certain framework that is only available on Sense UI devices.

[Q] Accuweather and current location problem

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:
http://www.accuweather.com/en/br/niguacu/35550/weather-forecast/35550
guess you need to check the accuweather support site as to why.
Many different weatherapps, try some

[Q] Circles widget 3d party launcher, picasa gallery sync?

Two separate issues, I have found after swapping my Nexus S (horribly slow since -stock!- Jelly Bean update) to the -really great!- Razr i:
- I prefer Launcher8 to the stock launcher, it is very snappy, good looking on my Razr i.. but I really miss that beautiful Circles widget. If I try to add it to the Launcher8 homescreen, it says '3d party launchers not supported', very annoying. Any workaround/ solution for this problem; to install circles widget (native on the Razr i) to 3d party launchers?
- I had Picasa sync of my Gallery on my Nexus S (really don't know when it came, how I have got it, thought it was stock), and I miss it on my Razr i. Any way to sync my Picasa (or now Google+) albums with the phone gallery?
Any help/ idea/ solution is welcome; thanks in advance.

Try This one. It has several clock widgets including a Circles look-alike.
Motorola's circle widget is bound to the Motorola Launcher, so you have to chose a similar looking widget from the store (admitting that none of them is as good as the Motorola one )

Yes, thanks, I have seen One More Clock Widget Free, as well.. But, 1, it is HUGE, 2, according to the reviews it is a battery killer.. So I think I better stay w/o the beautiful Circles widget, on Launcher8..
BTW: anybody, any suggestion, idea about my other issue: Picasa web album sync on the Razr i? Would love to have it again..
Isn't Picasa tied to Google+ now? At least, Picasaweb is. Maybe you should try logging into the Google+ app in order to sync your photos? You can disable notifications and stuff from Google+ in the app settings in case you don't need that much integration.

Motorala decided to disable the picasa sync in the stock motgallery.apk. Why? I don't know
you can use the original android gallery instead if you are rooted:

I use the just pictures app from the market. works fine and is free.

Thanks for info; and for the tip!
My solution to get a similar Circles in Apex Launcher was to install UCCW then a skin named UCCW Skin - MotoBlur Clock. It's not perfect but works for me.

Can be; and it looks like.. but; there is no launcher like Launcher8 (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5seC5sYXVuY2hlcjgiXQ..), it looks, works great on my Razr i.. so I have to do without circles widget..:crying:
Actually, IMHO this is the one getting closest to The Original: Rings Digital Weather Clock (https://play.google.com/store/apps/...lkZ2V0cy5idWJibGVkaWdpdGFsd2VhdGhlcmNsb2NrIl0.).. but it drains battery.

The skin I mentioned is locked, but you can make your own in skin in UCCW, I will make a comment to the developer to see if he can include more hotspots, which are useful though.
EDIT: My bad... I didn't see the developer includes a link to the uzip (which you can modify), I will download it to put more hotspots in weather and battery.

Hi,
the gallery worked for me but I tried it on ICS.
I don't know if the apk works on JB because I use the JustPictures app now.

must be a small app file size too, i haven weather and android notification widget and thats around 3.5megs
I use go weather products and has an great interface and widgets

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
