hello everyone
Maybe a dumb question : do you think there's a way to insert spb weather in the weather tab, instead of the original one? I know the design is way less cool than the HTC one, but the forecast and options are way better on SPB weather...
Thanks for any suggestions
i think the htc one looks much better than that of spb

The htc weather doesn't fresh to current weather status. eg: Updated weather 2 days ago, today still shows the weather of 2 days ago. Need to press "5-days" to see today manually.
SPB weather does not have this bug.

of course it works if you update it periodically or auto update. The issue I described is when no update for 2 days.
Any update? For AutoUpdate..it enquire to download thru our Service Provider...which I didn't subsricbe for unlimited data usage...
If you like the spb weather function suggest you look at Spb Traveller....has the weather built in PLUS currency's, unit conversion, time conversion, planning manager, etc...much better value!
Can you get it into/onto a tab...I doubt it, anyway Touchflo is there to get the girls...turn it off and reconfigure for speed

Is there any app/widget that finds your current location, like manila does?
i commute a lot to cities over 50 miles away and i want an application that can update with me as i go.. any one have any ideas? i've been searching for days!
i find with my touch pro2 the 1st screen of the weather manila tab knows where you are in the world if your using 3g or wifi, but u need to press update as u cross the zones.
i use weatherbug mobile works geat just type in the city and it will find it i use spb ms 3.5 and have a widget for it try the app its very cool
For a full featured weather application with tons of features and fully skinable, I recommend PocketWeather.

I have touch pro2 and the weather page automatically updates the location and weather - you can enable it in the weather settings.

Yeah, but that's part of sense, and it looks like redjoker needs something that will work with Titanium or SPB as opposed to sense (some users turn that off to improve device performance or to customize the device in some other way)
I managed to overwrite the stock weather widget from the Samsung Apps with a different style but i'd like to go back to the original weather widget. Any ideas if this is possible?

if you go to settings-applications-manage applications and choose the widget from there you may see an option which says ''Uninstall updates''
this is how it works in SGS but I am not sure about sgs2. it should work the same. just give it a try...
What warfanax said. I also updated, but the 'new' weather clock was broken - no locations were recognised. I uninstalled and got my old widget back (which is much better because it can be resized).
Sent from my Galaxy S II using XDA App
I'm trying to fill a specific need.
Before this i had a Ibex Flytouch 3. It lasted 4 days from new before the battery exploded and melted it to scrap.
BUT - it had a very nice weather widget that shows time and weather from lots of world places. Specifically Newbiggin-by-the-sea, Northumberland, UK.
No other weather app I've seen shows Newbiggin, the closes is Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Northumberland. OK, the weather will be the same, but I'd like to see Newbiggin listed and shown.
I've got the apk from the FT files, and it installs and runs as a widget, but I can change the settings (It used to be a tap on the widget would open its settings window, tapping it widget on my A500 does nothing).
Anyone know how to make it allow settings, or of a weather widgety that shows Newbiggin?
try beautiful widget...
I'll try him, thanks.
Palmary weather does the job I need, but it add TOO many widgets - I just want one simple little thing - why do they have to bloat things out so much?
In that case, you can use the basic widget available on the Acer.
But beautiful widget offers choice of different widgets from simple to sophisticated...
well the ACER one is not finalize... cut the text on the bottom...
and concerning beautifull.... hummm no comment.
Ressource eating, too much things.... but normal it's meant to be like this
but I will release asap my widget, minimalistic, nothing more than temperature, and simple graphic... just need too study more about Java

Don't get me wrong, i don't mind sophisticated..
I just don't want all the other widgets still installed after I've got the one I want running.
It's good it gives you a choice - it just needs to delete the ones I don't choose.

Thanks for the link.
I've already tried it - the water live wallpaper works fine and looks great, but the weather app/widget fails (installs, but on run force closes all the time).
Two questions about the GS2's Accuweather Widget.
First, it doesn't seem to update the weather without me hitting the update sync, it also doesn't update locations like Beautiful Widgets does.
Second, I'm also using Launcher Pro, but when I try and resize the Accuweather Widget, the blue color back ground doesn't fit.
So anyone know how to resize in LP?
And get the thing to update the weather and locations?
Thanks

Go launcher, launcher pro and adw fail to resize stock widgets correcty.... You can see that in this video too
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uA2wSVzi3Gk
Ok, thought so on LP.
What about the updating of the Accuweather widget and locations?
I'm using the AccuWeather Wideget, and I found that disabling the "Enable current location" on AccuWeather causing the high power consumption service "Wifi Sharing Service" disappear from Battery Status list, it used to take 30-40% of my GS2 battery.

I'll try this now. If it works, you would have solved a problem that has been bugging me since May!

Well I've been running Launcher Pro and went back to TW4 today, I had the Accuweather widget running all day with the check mark on Enable Current Location and I have to say my battery life was much better than running Launcher Pro. I didn't use the phone that much today, sat on the desk at home, but push email from K9 was running all day a few text messages ect and for at least 3 hours it showed 100%, right now its at 95%. Thats with WiFi Bluetooth and Sync ON.
When I'm on LP I use Beautiful Widgets, I like how that widget updates your location and weather, but maybe thats whats draining my battery faster than Accuweather.
But exactly what does Enable Current Location do in Accuweather? It doesn't detect my Current location thats for sure.

Please also disable the following functions beside AccuWeather Enable Current Location:
Voice Command & Voice Talk (preloaded on GS2)
Uncheck Settings -> Use location

As my understanding, the Accuweather will keep detecting your location in certain interval to make sure it reporting the weather on your current city and display on the widget. When you have your WIFI On, and you have "Use wireless networks" checked in "Location and security", it will wake up the "Wireless Sharing" service and Accuweather or Voice Command / Voice Talk will use that "Wireless Sharing" service to keep detecting your location, that's why most of the time you see that service drain your battery for 20%-40% daily. Maybe I'm wrong but proved on my phone this method really work.

Thanks Sleepycat, please tell us the result! Hopefully the solution can temporary fix on every GS2 phones' battery problem before Samsung releasing the new firmware.
I think I might have figured out the Enable Current Location feature, it looks like it uses the GPS. Now I'm not sure if it updates on its own like Beautiful Widgets, which btw doesn't use the GPS since I always have it off.

Tried this and WiFi sharing still appears. So your fix doesn't work for me.

My live weather wallpaper is also not updating/showing changed weather now. Once or twice it did, and should also show day/night but now it just stays at its current setting.

Click on the widget and change the setting on auto refresh to what you want.
Mine works fine.
Hi all!
I wanted to share my widget made on the basis of eXistenZClock by Niaboc79.
So here is the clock + weather. The week weather is not included, but I can add it if requested.
Normally, everything should be editable: you can change fonts, backgrounds, colors...
Hope you'll like it.
Week Weather
Nice. I would like to check out the week weather also if possible.
Good work.

If by the diary widget you are talking about the reminders of my calendar, then you'll find it on the playstore: Simple Calendar Widget. then with some patience, you can edit almost every aspect of this widget.

Unfortunately, I don't know what is going on with your problem. I've nerver faced this so far...
For the calendar, if you read the post above yours, I told it is "Simple calendar" you can find on the playstore and which is fully editable.
Enjoy ^^
