Hello,
I am enjoying the Hero builds but I have a "request" at anybody who can help me/us:
I would like to use the HTC weather widget but it does not seem to update for about 4 hours or more.
It would be great when it would update hourly so I would not have to start the weather app which always delays the loading of the home screen so I have a lag about 10 or more second ...
Is it possible to change the update frequency somewhere in the app?
Do you know why there is always the com.htc.dcs.impl & com.htc.dcs.stock running when using the weather widget?
Would be really great if you could help me with this update thing, thank you.
Why dont you just update it manually? I think on the bottom of the weather widget if you click on the little bar it should update. I cant be 100% sure on this cause I'm on cyan 3.6.5. Please someone with hero correct me if im wrong.
neone notice tht the flip clock widget is only slow when weather is enabled..so when u install hero n u got no wifi its without weather so its fast....neone know how to make it flip clock w/o weather ?

Yes, you are right when you use the biggest widget which needs a full homescreen.
But when you use the two smaller widgets (I have it on to left at my main homescreen) there is no button for update - so the only possibility is to change the config somewhere I think?
Has really no one any idea?

I believe the only to have the flip clock with out weather is to not have the weather set up for your location. Correct me if I am wrong. I have seen the clock without weather after using the hero roms and was puzzled because I had no weather. I set it up and it appeared. The opposite thing should work for you.

i think the only way to get the flip clock without weather is to not have your clock set up
let me elaborate
when u select the clock app you have cities set up right?
like i have atlanta on there
and then u also have the timzone clock and the extra clock i always have that shows up which is gay but w/e back on topic
when u select the flip clock from htc widget screen it asks u to select a city
if u select current city (not an actual city name) the weather wont show up on the clock
thats the only way i can get the clock without weather
hope it helps :-D
JUST install the weather widget from the market it contains the clock from hero and the weather...works on the Cynaogen build...1.49 from market but works good...

yes, but I know how the weather is at my current location - also it does not update automatically ...
if you want a flip clock without weather, try retro date (and clock) from market

Maybe it works like the flip clock/ weather widget. When I wanted to change the frequency (update interval) the only way I could find was to drag the widget to the trash bin and then re-launch it from the home screen (like most widgets) then it asks for location and update frequency like a fresh install.

hmm - the HTC Weather or flip clock widget does not ask for the frequency ... I think it must be in the file / apk - but where & how?
I'm looking for a flipclock without weather on it as well....
Solved the update frequency issue if you're still wondering about it.

Htc Flip clock
I'm Running the largest flip clock with weather on latest cm build with no issues make sure you have it exluded form any task managers
i was wondering how do i get the windows mobile rolodex clock for android i have been searching for 3 days and came up with nothing here is a link to what i am talking about.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=161477&stc=1&d=1235708820
Thats HTC's clock
its in the Hero device
Since it has TouchFlo in the weather/clock widget .
That image is from a Lock 2.0 theme.
Also, theres a weather widget in the market that has the same clock, with the weather on the bottom of it.
Free version: http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.androidapps.widget.weather
Paid Version [Its update more frequently]:http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.androidapps.widget.weather2
i have been messing with that for awhile but i havent gotten the clock to show up just the weather how do i get the clock to show up and i have the free version
It's only in the paid version. You'll see the option for a flip clock.

Is there a way to refresh the weather on the watch? It updated once and hasn't changed in 12 hours.

Open the weather widget and change it in the settings on your phone. Then reboot both
Actually it is in the setting for weather in the Gear Manager app.

There isn't anyway as of now to refresh from the watch itself. It does autoupdate as soon as the app on the phone updates tho. I currently have the phone app set to update hourly on mine so that the weather info stays somewhat updated. I would imagine a future update will include someway to refresh directly from the watch itself.

That just allows you to setup how often the weather is refreshed, it doesn't actually do what the op asked which is refresh the weather from the watch. As a side note when you change the settings in Gear Manager that you mentioned it changes the settings in the weather widget on the phone and vice versa. I do believe that a future update will allow you to refresh the weather directly from the watch tho.

Undersood the question but frequent update (e.g. every hour) should mean there is no need to update from the watch. The weather does not change that fast!

The problem i'm having is that Weather isn't updating at all on my Gear,
If i go into apps and press weather i'm met with 'Add city to weather widget on mobile device'
On the main Gear clock/weather screen it states 'No weather info'
I've tried turning 'Use current location' on and off in Gear Manager, restarting both devices didn't help.
Also tried resetting the Gear to factory defaults.
I'm using a stock Note 3.
Everything else seems to work well,
Any ideas ?

is the weather app setup correctly on the Note 3? It gets all of it's info from the stock app on the Note, oddly enough the weather app is obviously different from previous versions as it doesn't work at all on an S4.

Appreciate the quick reply,
Everything was setup correctly but for some reason re-installing Gear Manager on my Note made it work.

Don't mean to hijack this thread but i don't know if it's worth creating a new one...
Is there any quicker way to check battery life ?
The only way I know is to go into the Settings app on the Gear and then Battery.

Is there a way to get the TouchWiz Accuweather widget to run in the Nova launcher? It seems that only the TouchWiz version updates the weather clock on the Galaxy Gear watch. It would be nice to have it work with Nova as well. I did install the Accuweather application from the Play Store, but its widget doesn't sync with the Gear watch, or so it appears.

Here's a version of TouchWiz Accuweather I've had since Note1, which works on Nova.

You have to use a root browser to copy it to system/app.
With the new tizen update you can refresh weather manually from the watch now

Weather widget for Galaxy Gear
Hello to all
I noticed that all the widgets I tried to use that was not native to SAMSUNG is not synchronizing with the Galaxy GEAR.
Thus, I can not use the coolest launchers because of this.
Some of you can use other launchers and weather widgets that sync with the Galaxy Gear?
Thanks.
Galaxy Mega 5.8 ( non root)
Galaxy Gear I (non root)

I installed HD Widgets and not found a way to sync ...
how you configure it to synchronize its clock with the HD Widgets?
Is there a way to have a clock face that shows notifications? Or some other way to have it so when i turn the watch screen on, I can see both the time and any notification count on the same screen?

Thanks for posting that but does the weather part work if you dont have a samsung device? Also what if your not on 4.3?
Can you add a similar widget to watch face on stock gear?

You need Gear Manager on your host device to use any Native functions on the Gear, inculding weather updates.

No I will not.
First up, you need to be rooted to get acces to the count..
Second, it´s a completly different thing to create the widget as standalone than trying to implement it in a stock app.

Interesting I do have the gear manager installed on my devices. Like the gear manager icon appears when I Bluetooth connect my device. I still don't get weather updates. Someone was saying you have to have th Samsung accuweather installed.

I have NULL_ 22.1 installed.
I am using the clock + weather widget.
I do have NotiCounter installed.
When I try to place the clock + weather widget and the NotiCounter widget on the same screen, the clock widget gets cut off.
I also am using the dock for my all apps button, tho i am trying to get LMT set up to use it instead.
Thanks for the assistance

I have a Note 2 (i605) and GearManager installed.... the weather widget will not work unless I have the stock TouchWiz clock on one of my home screens. So I just put it on one i never use.... No idea about getting it to work on non Samsung phones, maybe someone has ported that widget?

Yeah I thought there was someone at one point that had the samsung apps and had re authored them so that you could use them with other devices. The search featured has been disabled for some reason on this site so I cant look for it.
Have anyone found a way to remove the weather from AOD and the lock screen?
i am interested too, to remove weather from AOD.
Thanks

You'll have to use an other launcher for that, i.e. Nova.
its about AOD not homescreen. Still need a solution to change AOD to remove the weather information.
With NOVA LAUNCHER you can only remove Weahter, Seachrbar etc. from HomeScreen. AOD is the Always On Display you cant change with a new launcher.
Can you get rid of it in the notification settings?
Sounds nasty...
Do you all just want the weather off or date and next alarm also?
