HTC clock/weather widget's location problem on wifi

Hi guys,
Got this problem: when I use wifi, the clock/weather widget can locate, and get the info about weather, but it can't display the city name. It just shows "Current location". This won't happen when I use the 3G connection.
When get into weather app on wifi, it will show a notification "unable to contact location service to update your current location". Also, this won't happen on 3G.
I cleared the data for the apps, like weather provider, etc, but it doesn't help.

I have the same issue & i'm still looking for a fix

I some how got it to work, go into Settings-Power-(uncheck) Fast Boot. Restart your device and on the top right you should get an icon. Click the icon and it will ask you to pick your time zone. Hope this works for you.

Gear 2 neo functionality review (Note 3 att)

A quick run down of what works and what doesn't.
1. Can send and receive calls via the watch. (then I changed my ringtone to "Knightrider")
2. Can send, receive, and reply to SMS via watch, send by using premade templates or Svoice typing (although not easy to switch between the two on the fly)
3. Can receive most notifications from APPS when selected
-cannot receive TASK notifications from calendar for some odd reason, so if i set up a task like "remind me in 5 minutes to brush my teeth" i get no reminder on the watch, but i do on the phone. This really makes me mad.
4. Can create appointments in calendar, but cannot set an appointment reminder. Note 3 has no default reminder setting, so if i use S voice on the watch to set a calender appointment, i will not get a reminder about it. This really makes me mad.
5. Cannot use Svoice to launch navigator from watch, but can from phone. This really makes me mad.
6. Can set an alarm using Svoice from watch, but cannot name the alarm. This makes me mad seeing as options 3 and 4 arent working either!!
-conclusion, no way for me to talk to watch and be reminded by watch and phone
7. went from 100% battery to 40% battery in 21 hours with heavy use. (3 phone calls, constant fiddling, media remote, tv remote, Sleep app, lots of testing)
8. Can control playback of currently selected playlist on phone via Media remote, with forward and backward skipping. Cannot select music on phone in any manner. This makes me mad too!
9. Watch on works great for controlling basic TV functions. There is no guides of any sort on watch for programs.
That should answer some of the questions that i had initially before my purchase but could not find. If anyone has any questions about functions ask and i will provide what i can.

10. When two notifications come in at the same time there is no way to view both without going to notifications app.
11. Cannot reply to email notifications
12. there is no Auto brightness setting, you must manage this manually
13. Svoice will not "Read the news" due to this function is not available
14. Dismissing a notification on the watch also dismisses the notification on the phone
15. deleting a notification on the watch does not delete it from the phone
16.You cannot set a "Location" reminder from Svoice on the watch, only a standard task reminder.
17. The wrist gesture is not very strict. My screen goes on unintentionally all the time. The minimum screen timeout is 10 seconds.

4. FIX - To make calendar reminders default to a value, you need to remove "My Calendar" and "Samsung Calendar" from the calendar app, instead only use Google calendar, when you use svoice to make an event, the google calendar will automatically add your predefined reminder.

This was a great run down! :good::good:
--especially since I was waiting to get my Neo, which finally arrived yesterday.
Question --where is the sleep app?
I hunted high and low and can't find it. (Either I am going blind or I need to do something to get it! I thought I saw somewhere in these XDA threads where someone had to download an update to enable or get sleep app, but I have the latest gear manager (updated yesterday when I setup the Neo).
My NEO software version is ANCD, (that is the only thing I am thinking could be the issue!)
Thank's in advance for any assistance
EDIT: SLEEP.APK OK I had to manually update the Neo's rom via Kies3 (after DL/Installing Kies3, plugged in the Neo and Kies discovered a software update. I went from Neo Rom NCD to ND8.) After the update, I had the Sleep app in apps!

Notifications from many apps wont show up when on LTE/4G/3G but they show up on wifi

So I have the note 5 for few months now and after all this time I haven't found a solution.
Basically I use the app called livescore and few other football/soccer apps that notify my when I select certain matches for goals to show up like notifications.
The settings in the app its self is fine, notifications are on, the settings in app manager are also fine.
I haven't found anywhere settings for notifications to show up or not when not on wifi. Do those settings exist? If they don't then what the problem might be?
Its really frustrating as the same thing doesn't happen with whatsapp which works fine with notifications over LTE/4G but when it comes to other apps it just wont work.
ALSO my samsung default email app wont show up new emails unless I am on wifi or unless while on LTE/4G I go inside the app and refresh it.

Hey,
This also randomly just happened to me. The way I fixed it is by going into settings --> Applications --> Application Manager --> MORE --> Reset App Preferences. Notifications all came in after i did that and haven't had a problem since. Let me know if it works!

[Q] Weather Alert Popup

Does anyone know how to stop the Weather Alerts from popping up on the G6? I can't figure out how to stop them. We've been getting storms for the past 2 days and they keep popping up on my phone and it's pretty annoying.

Did you install any additional 3rd party weather app? I didn't think the LG weather app does weather alert.
If you want to get rid of the weather app, you can just uninstall it from Settings>Apps. See if the alert continues.

was it working before you disabled gmail?
I just froze gmail using titanium. backup and sent myself an email and received it no problem. you sure the link between the watch and phone is not at fault?
try to use the find my phone watch app and see if it can communicate correctly.
I have been having issues with the the watch being in remote connection mode on my wifi. on LTE it works perfectly. and obviously on bluetooth also.

It's the first time that I try the Samsung mail application.
All the other notifications come flawlessly to the watch. Even with the Gmail enabled (and with both options enabled to receive or not the notifications) the Samsung Mail don't send the notifications to the watch.
No problem between Note's 9 and watch's communication, all the notifications arrive to the watch fine.

It's not stupid question, my bad that I didn't wrote it in first place.
Yes, all the Samsung Email notifications are on but for some they can't be pushed to the watch.
The strange thing is that's the one and only application with this issue. I have a hundred more that all work as supposed to work.
I'm thinking to reset the watch but I don't have the time to setup the 50 watchfaces I've got..
