Hello all. I am constantly getting a toast notification at the bottom of my screen that says something to the effect of "The weather forecast is automatically set to (my city). You can change it in the forecast details page." It comes up about 10 times a day. How do I get rid of it? Where is the forecast details page?

Sounds like this is from an app you have installed
Yup, you installed some app that has a shady business model. Start uninstalling things into it goes away (and report back here what it was, so that others might avoid the problem in the future.)

How often does everyones weather update, mine goes for days without updating unless I click the update button.....
Cheers
It won't update automatically unless you tell it to....supposedly
You need to tap on the city name at the top of the plugin, then when the city list is displayed, tap on Menu | Weather Options and make sure the "Download weather data automatically" is checked.
That's the theory at least - mine is ticked and like you, I have to tap on the weather panel on the home screen to get the damn thing to update
There is another option - "Download when roaming", but I've not ticked that box....might be worth a try?
Cheers,
Mark.

Thanks all for the help.... didnt even notice the options menu in the city select.......
Hi,
Yet another strange thing I am having. For setting the weather location in LG's home clock/weather widget I select "current location". Can it really be tru that it does not update likek the HTC weather? I can't use a weather report based on eg. my home address when I travel 100 km for work!

Seems to be a problem, yes because there is no proper configuration...
It's a great widget but it also updates (refreshes) very slowly and this can not be adjusted.
You travel 100km for work!
I also had a problem with changing my location.
The solution was de-install and install the widget again.
Then you can change the temp, location, time whene to update etc..

You can get the that screen after hitting the weather picture on the icon then menu then settings... but it's doesn't have a "follow me" or "update frequency" option as far as I can tell.

No, I can't find any further options. How can You de-install / install something built in the OS? Are You rooted??

Yeah, 104 KM to be exact. Each way...but its 7 days on/off.
your not exactly de-installing it you remove the widget from your screen. hold it and then drag it to the bin. Then you put the widget back.

I have tried this several times but it does still not give me as much options as You state. No update freq. change! And still it does not update on current location unless I manually click inside the widget.
I also just bought the phone so the method is a bit extencive.
what you can do is push on the widget so that if wil onfold.
Then press on the left button next to the home button.
and press options.
You than can change the temp. as in fahrenheit or celcius.
You can also ad multiple locations.
You can't do anything about the auto update.
Use Fancy Widget, there is a fee version on marked works very nice.
Its pitty. This widget is really beautifull, even with animations. Only think which I am missing is refresh rate setting :-( I hope that this can be solved in near future...
yap, the widget its beautiful, can anyone has a fixed in this one, i'm from New Zealand, Daylight saving just began, but the clock of the widget still the same. the actual clock is different to the clock of the widget, even the update is at the button of the widget +1 hour . see picture. thanks
I have two Lock Screen apps installed on my Windows Phone 8 Nokia Lumia 521.
The first is Lock Screen Message, which enables me to add free form text to an image, and to use that as my lock screen.
The other is Weather Wallpaper, which adds weather information to my lock screen.
Together they work nicely, but I am wondering if there is an app that combines these two features. Anyone know of one?
If you're still looking: try "Lock Manager". It can add weather, calendar, custom text and battery level to your lock screen.
Not to bad at all. My only complaint is that the lock screen does not seem to update for new appointments that I add to my calendar. After waiting a decent interval, I disabled and re-enabled appointments in the app, and this refreshed the lock screen and displayed the new appointment. Otherwise, it does what it says it will.

All lock screen apps have that limitation. They can pretty much update every 30 minutes, this is the standard update interval of background tasks in Windows Phone OS. Users can either wait for it to update automatically after 30 minutes, or in case of "Lock Manager" you just need to open the app and hit save, without the need to do anything else.
Does anyone know why my alarm widgets (ie. either Chronus or HD Widgets or Elixir) show up as 5 minutes delayed? The alarms work well and activate correctly, but they're shown 5 minutes delayed on the widgets (for ex. 12:00noon alarm shows on the widget as 11:55, or 6:00pm alarm shows as 5:55pm). Been since I upgraded to Pie.
I see the same happening on the pie beta 3 on my s8.
It happens using the weather timeline widget and the stock Samsung alarm.
However when I use a different alarm app such as sleep as Android it is displayed correctly.

Ditto... Same thing..
Whoa, thought it was only in mine, as I've searched google and here, and found no one report on it. Is this a Pie issue? Should be in the Samsung forums, if so.
The issue still persists in the official pie rollout on s8 unfortunately. I've no idea how to solve this
Someone post the solution
This is driving me crazy.
Any progress regarding this issue?

I had a similar issue where widgets, and other apps, were not updating or giving notifications correctly.
The problem was with app optimization- I had to un-optimize these apps in order for them to work properly.
Settings > apps > (three dots menu) special access > optimize battery usage
You can also search directly for 'Optimize battery usage'
The default display "Apps not optimized" only shows apps that have not been optimized. You will want to change this to "all apps". Then you will be able to de-optimize apps that you want instant notifications or updates from.
If the app you want to use needs data access as well in order to function (weather widgets) then you can go a step further and go to..
Settings > apps > *APP YOU WANT TO MODIFY* > mobile data
Then allow "allow background data usage" and "allow app while data saver is on". The former is more important, but the later insures the app will receive updates no matter what. Hope this helps.
That dosent fix the behavoir.

go to an alternate apk downloading site and get the previous version of the app. Seems to be a recurring issue across several phones when running the newest version of chronus on pie.
Sorry man but when did we start to talk about chronus? Don't know the App even don't have it installed.
Hi all,
I am currently using a P30 Pro but I had this same issue on my p20 Pro so wanted to post it here.
Randomly throughout the day I see something in the notification bar at the top that catches my eye. When studying this a bit more and screen recording I see that it is the Google play store notification icon. It flashes up for a split second and then gone and there appears to be no logic or patten to it appearing. I tried to leave the notifications bar pulled down to see ifi could see what it was doing but it is to fast to register an action for me to view and appears as a quick half pull down on the list.
Has anyone else experienced this and also if you have do you know what's causing it and how to stop it.
Thanks

Try to install Notification Log (or any other app that collects notification history) from the Play Store and see if it's able to cath that notification in order to provide more details
Great idea thanks,
I will give that a try and see what happens.
I get the notification flashing up a few times a day at least so hopefully it's long enough to register on the app.
A notification app doesn't record the action I have tried it. It seems to occasionally flash up when opening an app or closing one but not all the time and not always the same ones.
Block play store's notifications

That should stop the notification showing but it doesn't explain what's causing it which is what I'm trying to understand. Some process is working in the background so I'm trying to figure out what

Must be a bug from the app itself. Mostly trying to give you notifications but it fails so it keeps trying to do it?
