Does anyone know of a way to make the home screen weather app update via wifi?
The weather updates via WiFi just fine. But you have to go into the weather tab to manually tap "update now".
Do you mean you want the weather to update automatically every time your device is connected via WiFi? That, I'm not sure of...

Periodically throughout the day my HD2 will automatically and by itself make a data connection, which then stays open until I disconnect it. Initially, I thought it was the Weather or Stock tab, and I've disabled the automatic update for those; in fact, I don't even use the HTC Sense Today plug-in. I can't figure out what other app(s) may be making their own connection, so am appealing to the pros here with any suggestions.
Thanks much,
James.
got your phone linked to your facebook account? how about the twitter tab? email accounts? internet time sync?
go to settings tab, and tap 'data services', and have a look through the options there.
Thanks for the tip, looks like the time was set up to sync over the Internet. Didn't see it because I wasn't using HTC Sense. I think it likely that was the cause as nothing else was connecting automatically. If the trouble continues, I'll post a follow-up, but I think it's likely solved.
Thanks much,
James.
Why is my data connection starting when I reboot my phone and sense is about to start?
Probably weather or time syncing with network.
Nice taskbar BTW... great work.
It might be weather, but even if I remove the weather tab it keeps doing it. How do I disable the time sync thing?
I think the setting resides in Clocks and Alarms I don't recall.
If not, maybe in settings tab.
Also, weather will still attempt to update even with tab removed because of home tab weather.
The time synchronization in the settings tab is disabled. Really don't know what it might be, and thanks btw, glad you liked it
EDIT: I think I found the problem, I disabled the sync for Facebook/Twitter and Youtube and now it won't autoconnect anymore.
I assume you want to prevent data from connecting, have you tried No Data or something similar?
Ah, NM. Glad you fixed it.
Quick question, does anybody know how to stop Timescape updating facebook everytime i select it via the apps list or the tile on my main home page. Ive changed the update frequency in "Settings" for facebook to never but it still updates everytime i select Timescape.
Cheers
If there is an account setup it will update every time TimeScape is opened. The only way to stop it is to delete the account from TS (at least, as far as I have found)
Any ideas why it doesnt seem to update my hotmail account ive got set up as well each time i open it?
Hi.
The weather app works fine when there's internet connection, but whenever I get offline it says that there's no weather data available. This happens only for the current city, the other cities have their forecasts saved. This didn't happen before. Whenever there was no data connection, it would display the weather from the last forecast update.
After upgrading to the S5, I've found that my Twitter app (same app used on my previous phone, Galaxy S3) doesn't appear to be notifying me of new tweets. Additionally, the widget doesn't seem to be updating either. I can update it by manually going in to the Twitter app and refreshing tweets, but aside from that it just kind of sits there. It used to push me a notification every time someone I follow tweeted, and the widget would always be updating. Anyone else having this problem?
Specs:
Galaxy S5 G900P
Rooted, PhilZ Touch Recovery Bootloader
M.O.A.R. ROM v1.0
I believe the app was having this issue before I even rooted the device as well, so I'm not sure that it has anything to do with it. Is there a Twitter or Phone setting that I should mess with to allow it to update? In the Application Manager, Twitter is set to "Allow Updates". Within the Twitter app itself, it is set "Notifications are ON", "Sync data is ON", and "Sync interval = 1 hour". Even now, the widget is showing my second to most recent tweet in my feed, and will not update.
