Do someone has this problem with HTC HOME in a ATT TILT

Since this morning my weather app. is not working anymore and I'm using the HTC HOME plug in it says " Unable to retrieve data for selected city. Select here to retry."
Can someone help me. I removed them already, reinstall them but doesn't work with any city.
Help please.

Just checked mine and it updated fine... Everything else working fine like browsing, checking emails, etc.?

Might want to copy that entire message into Google along with 'HTC Home Customizer' and do a search. There's various links to threads in them but I couldn't look too in-depth as to what the problem might be from.
Good luck!
There looked to be a post on here too but it was like 50+ pages, yikes!

Looked ok at first but digging further mine hasn't updated since Sunday 11/25.

Same problem with the weather here too. The last time I checked it was this morning, and it has stopped working since. I tried some random cities, and they did not work either.
(georgemera, try to be more specific with the thread title (e.g., at least, HTC Home weather not updating). I wouldn't have bothered reading if I didn't accidentally click it...)

me too
I'm also experiencing this issue, I haven't seen an update since Sun. I've been roaming all over the US since Thurs. but this has been my only issue. I too have searched but don't yet have a working fix. Anyone know if this is an AT&T-specific issue? I see that T-Mobile customers have had this problem in the past.

Add me to the "it's not working" list.

No problem...its actually really simple. Click on the City if you already have one selected as I guess you do. Then click on menu > weather options > and select fahrenheit.

thanx alot

The HHC custom database pulls the data from a different weather server. During the install, this reg key is modified to redirect any requests from your phone going to htc.accuweather.com to this other server. Most likely the server is not responding.
I found this in the registry...
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Tcpip\Hosts\htc.accuweather.com]
"ipaddr"=hex:40,3E,9E,6C
This points htc.accuweather.com to 64.62.158.108

I found this thread and it has HTC Home 2.1 there. Now the cities are added directly to the XML file (different format) and the new patched Home app reads zip codes too. I'm getting data again.
From reading thru the thread, it looks like N2A (guy running the weather server) has disabled the IP based weather server, or something to that effect. anyways, the new version and method of adding cities works for me.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319187

Can someone tell me how to fix this please.
Thanks in advance.

follow the link I provided above. On that thread you will find the Schen's 2.1 Home cab install. Remove your exisiting install of home, d/l and install this new one, then follow the directions in that thread for adding your city.

I do notice that on my Weather screen it doesn't auto update until I go to it, then it takes like 15secs but I'm not gonna mess with it. Apparently I'm pretty lucky here compared to others...

that's the way it works, HTCs idea of auto is refresh when I get there, not refresh in background. no worries, it usually goes pretty fast....

Something Similar to tcalendar?

Does anyone know of a good widget calender app that will show the date? There is tcalendar, which is exactly what I'm looking for, but doesn't seem to work on the Hero.
If anyone knows of anything similar, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks..
Marc

check pure calendar widget. one of my favorites
http://koxx3.wordpress.com/

Thanks for the reply, but I'm looking for one that just today's date and once you tap on it, it takes you to your calendar.
Thanks..

I downloaded tCalendar as well because of the day/date display. That bit works but it does not launch the calendar app. I left a comment in the Android Market to that effect and hopefully it will get fixed.

Yeah, I got the same thing. It's exactly what I'm looking for, if it just launched the calendar app.

Might be missing the point here, but...
The HTC widget shows the date (both the small and large versions) and when you tap the date it opens the Calendar app.

Thanks..that is helpful, yes. But, was hoping there was just a small icon.
Thanks..

Weather Widget update

Hi,
I wonder if there is any way to make the Accuweather widget to update the location automatically ?
I come from a Note 2 which widget automatically updates its location, and it is something I lack.
Of course the possibility to pickup something from the Play Store remains but still I would be keen to use
the genuine apps.
thx !

I would like to know this too! Cant get it to update location

Ditto, I like the weather widget would like to stick with it. Anyone?

On my one you click on the app which makes the settings appear in the top right corner, then you can set it to use your location every half hour, you also have to allow location services in phone settings.
Edit...
Ah ok I see what you're saying, after coming to work my phone still says my old location and I've been here more than half an hour, but even then it's not exactly accurate.

Thank you for your reply. I have already done that. the weather forecasts and trends are updated every hour (it's the way I have set it up) but not the location.

The Sony-built-in News/Weather widget allows this, by the way. There is Accuweather and then there is "News & Weather". See if that works for you.

yes I'll give it a try !
Even if the Sony widget is quite ugly !

Indeed, the Sony widget is updating its location. I'm going to stick with it a bit.

Disappointed in weather apps.

I can't find a single one that actually follows your current location as you drive. Neither amazing weather hd nor weather flow do this. I've tried every weather app I can think of.

Amazing Weather HD follows me. You have to enable location services in your phone settings and the GPS location in Amazing Weather HD.
Note that the shortest interval you can set is 1 hour, so it will only update your location every hour.

Weathermaster works well with location. Give it a go.

Both have already been enabled. An hourly change in weather is ridiculous. I used to have updates every 15 minutes on my galaxy note 2.
Where I live, the temperature can change 15 degrees in an hour.

Go into settings within Weathermaster, click Add / Pin Live tile and at the top it has an option for current location. Pin this and you're good to go. Seems to update fairly regularly for me, although not every 15 minutes.

Had a quick look on the store and found this: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-gb/store/app/weather-tile/1556afd5-02ff-4b63-8ba2-458dbfe0678a
Says it updates every half hour so if none of the others cut it for you, it might be worth a go.

I got amazing weather hd working before the trial ran out, then I bought it. Thanks for everybody's help. Now I'm waiting for a good music app. Using audio player right now. Really want in app playlist creation.

Question Nest doorbell - Rich notifications

Hi all,
Switched back to android after trying apple for a few months. Im now looking for a watch to replace my AW7, One thing i love about the AW is rich notifications when someone comes to my front door from my nest doorbell which works great. Previous android watches ive had never did this or if they did it was inconstant .
Does the GW5 do this? Showing a pic/video when someone presses the doorbell . Anyone have a nest and GW5 confirm this works?
Thanks

We have Nest cameras and yes the GW5 does show pictures as long as you have notifications for the Nest app setup to notify you on the GW5.

I get a notification on my G Home app but when I click it I have to open it on my phone to see video. How did you do that? Oh, I have a Pixel device maybe that's it?

Mine does it automatically. I just make sure notifications for the Nest app are enabled on my GW5. I have a S22 Ultra. What pops up on my watch is just a picture from the camera that caught it. Most times it is our driveway camera that caught a car driving up the street. If it is a sound then I don't get a picture.

Ok thanks. It must have something to do with the phone then. I might just need a modded home app for it to work.

I also have a Pixel 7 Pro and have had it work fine. I think that it is only certain things like motion that triggers the picture for the cameras. We don't have a Nest doorbell but I would think it works the same.

Hmm. I get those also but usually when a camera has heard a sound. If there is motion, then it shows a picture. My Nest notifications are set to only notify me of stuff when nobody is home.

This is what I just read from December. https://9to5google.com/2022/12/14/google-home-nest-cam-preview-wear-os/
So are you using the Nest app or Google Home. Seems like that's the difference possibly.

I have both as 2 of our 7 cameras are Goggle/Nest Home Hubs and those have to be setup in the Home app for the initial setup. I don't know why mine seems to work. My notifications come from the Nest app as I don't have notifications from the Home app enabled on my phone or watch. I do have the Nest app notifications enabled on both my phone and watch no matter which phone I am using.
I also have some other devices that I monitor through the Home app such as dome smart appliances.
I do remember an article I read either last year or in late 2021 saying that all Nest would be eventually switching over to the Home app and they would be doing away with the Nest app.

I think they might have already ditched it. I just installed the Home app on the watch but still the same. I'll get it and let you know how I did it. Frustrating though since you have it and I don't. lol

That's odd since it was just updated on 12/14/22. It may be some setting I have setup but I wouldn't for the life of me be able to tell you what setting it could be.

I was just guessing. I might try that app but I have to run. I did d/l the Home app but it's still called "preview" with limited functionality. But there is a companion app that might work so I'll try that later. Thanks again.

No luck. I sideloaded the Home companion app but it can't connect. Nest sideload wouldn't load at all after installing. I did see that Samsung is going to update something or other to allow it but that's not yet. Keep your Nest account working I do believe that will be going away soon. Hopefully by that time Samsung will have the new app working.

The nest app will not install on my watch. Which version do you have? Is that the notification app you can open with video? This is just ridiculous they put out an app that does nothing.

I don't have the Nest app installed on my watch. I just have it checked to receive notifications from Nest on my watch.
I don't know what I have done that will cause it to show a picture on my watch for certain notifications. Like I said, it seems to only do it for certain camera events.
