Niggly Issues after Manual Update - Nexus One General

A couple of small niggly issues now appear, and from speaking to others on Twitter it seems it might be a common issue. I wonder if it is from manually updating or just a bug?
On the lock screen, next to the carrier name I now have the | character so what was "O2 - UK" is now "O2 - UK |"
Any ideas why this is? Its not a big issue but slightly irritating as it means my device isn't the perfect device I want!
Also, the polar clock, with working dynamic wallpapers now, seems to be showing US time despite the main clock showing as UK. I wonder if this is to do with the manual update being US based, as the phone reset itself to US time after the update before automatically changing back to UK time. Polar clock never changed, not even after a reboot.
Any ideas and help always greatly appreciated.
Paul.
Carrier: O2
Country / Language: UK

Since I did a manual update, even though I am at the default middle/home screen, the small indicators show that I am one screen to the left.
I don't have your problems though.

Same issue here, only one so far.

I've seen this home screen dot bug, toggling the screens fixed it.
I did manually update, but I don't think this is the reason.

Same issue here but O2 - UK|

I am not experiencing the | character after T-Mobile

T-mobile UK or USA?

oh, US but why would it be any different?

Seems to be a lot of UK users with the | pipe issue that's all.

I manually installed the update last night. I live in the U.S. Neither of the issues mentioned on this thread have affected my Nexus One. In fact, I havent found any issues...yet.
- Greymarch
I write about technology, including the Nexus One at my website:
greymarch.com

didn't
I'm getting the dots not being on despite being at the home screen. I'm us. I don't get the l after T-Mobile. MUST be a UK thing.

Idk if this because of the update, this hasn't happened before the update but after I uploaded some videos to youtube, they seem to get deleted from my gallery. Not sure if there is a setting for that. Can anybody confirm?
*****NVM THEY SHOW NOW

Not on my AT&T and I did manual as well.

Same here.

I don't have that issue with the extra | and i'm in tmobile usa. the home screen dots get fixed by just swiping to another screen and back.

I too have the | sign after my carrier name followed with a standard message from my carrier )usually sth like 'have a nice day' or my location). Previously it was displaying this message in a separate line. My guess is that O2 UK has an empty carrier message and that's why you see only the bar.

Got the the pipe showing with Sonera in Finland also, annoying.

It seems it could be a Broadcast Channel Message "bcch" and these operators are sending NO MESSAGE hence we get nothing after the | not sure why Google would of altered the way this is handled but I'd like to see it sorted out but also the annoying "dots" glitch too.

Sony Ericsson Panel - Weather Problem

Hi All,
Wonder if you can help - Within the Sony Ericsson Panel 1 (or 2) the weather doesnt seem to update correctly for my location.
If I change it to say New York - it updates the time and weather, however when I select my hometown (Milton Keynes - UK) the time changes, but the weather pic stays to whatever the last location was.
The weather changes correctly for London instantly but doesnt seem to change for other locations in the UK (Tried a few, Birmingham, Northampton, Blackpool etc)
Can anyone confirm whether the weather is supported for other UK cities other than London - Touch Flo weather picks up the individual cities ok but to be honest I actually prefer the sony ericsson panel!
Seems a bit strange they have the towns / cities listed but they are not supported?
In an effort to get it to work in case it was broken by something i installed, I have done a hard reset.. still doesnt work
Thanks in advance,
Craig
Have the same issue with mine. I live in Lincoln, but have to set it to Nottingham and it still never updates.
Have resorted to using London.

On the Sony Ericsson Panel (1 or 2), the weather loads for a while with Nottingham, however after a while it changes to the default grey cloud icon. Don't get this issue with London.

Oh lol, is that cloud with an umbrella default? I just thought that always showed because the weather is crap at the minute lol
Yup that's the icon for weather FAIL.
Should just use SPB Mobile Shell panel.
Best panel atm
I've also had the problem of the weather not updating on my SPB panel.
Whilst installing another program on my Xperia today, a message came up telling me to update to the latest .NET Compact Framework as the version on my device was older (2. something, on a Vodafone ROM).
I've installed the latest version (3.5) from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
Now, not only does my other program work but so does the weather function on the SPB panel!
I hope this helps.
i was wondering about that too on the panel and i figured it out. press on the cloud or picture of the weather and it should connect online to accu weather. type in location or do it by zip code. it will fine your home location then set it to add location. exit out of there and go to the panel options go to select your location pick it, then it will update correctly this is what i did. pm me if im not clear on this thanks
THAT is strange.
My X1 was updating weather fine (manually) through all this time,
and now suddenly, it stopped. It just doesn't update it.
We talk about SE Panels.
Strange, since it also seems to have problem with updating currencies on MSConverter.
Can this be connected or it's just coincidence??
Any clue??

Weather not showing under clock

Hi all.
Ever since updating to the new ROM (Orange UK) I have been getting the com.htc.provider error message. Everyone is saying that this is because of Peep and Twitter but it is causing another problem for me: The weather on the clock widget is no longer showing. It displays the name of where I am but that is it. Around 10% of the time the weather is there but 90% it isn't.
I have tried wiping (factory reseting) the phone and re-installing the ROM but this doesn't help.
Any suggestions?
Cheers.
I am Having the exact same problem with the weather since the update, but if i just choose the weather by itself, then that will update.
Yep, that's the problem alright.
Glad I am not the only one but I would prefer it if it wasn't happening at all!
I logged out of Peep and the problem as described disappeared....might be a coincidence however!
I am also seeing an issue sometimes with the HTC Weather widget not updating as regularly as before. With the v1 firmware it would update a few seconds after I moved to the Home screen it lives on, now it takes ages or does not update at all. You have to go to the Weather app and manually initiate an update.
Just (now) checked the widget and it updated immediately
I think the newest firmware (may be Orange related only) updates at longer intervals than with the 1st release.
A pain and IMHO as the weather in certain places can change quickly, and not how it should work.
I hope HTC don't think the v2 firmware is the final one they need to release.
BTW, not logged into Twitter via Settings but use Twidroid and log in via this.
Not had the .provider error message at all.
Well the weather bug on home screen happens because of the com.htc.provider error.
And since the com.htc.provider error comes from the Peep application and not Twitter you need to not use Peep until HTC releases an update.
A fast way to get the weather to work again is if you have saved your scene. then you just need to change to the normal HTC Scene and then back to your own again.
And regarding the latest release it will probably only be one of many since already in October it is rumored that the next firmware which will probably be a build of Donut will be released.
I've had that problem since I've had it, about 2 months, Done factory reset twice. And it cures it for about 10 minutes, then just name of homebase, and no weather.
I Had the same problem after the update. I deleted the clock from the homescreen, reinstalled the HTC Clock widget and it works fine now. Hope that helps.....
is there a way to manually set the weather so that it shows under the clock??
i mean i m not connected to GPPRS or 3G all the time..so can i just make it show manually?? without being online??
I've had this problem almost since day one. It's a G2 on stock T-Mobile ROM.
No weather data under clock and if I manually update it just says 'no data available'.

Yep, same as me, apart from when it was brand new, worked for about half hour, then 'no data available' for my home base in 2months, and deleting and installing new widget makes no difference as worked for some others
I've been getting the no data available problem as well.
What I've found is that using 'current' as the location sometimes gives this for my location (Leicester) however, if I add Leicester as an actual location and choose this as the one to display, then it seems ok.
There's obviously a bug of some sort that results in Leicester current having no data when Leicester actually selected does.
Also, when I add the clock widget, no matter what city I choose to display, it always displays the one which is top on the sort order. I get round that by sticking my local one at the top...
Not sure if that is exactly the same as what you guys are experiancing...

My Weather thinks it's night...

After the Sim Contacts update my weather thinks that it's day when it's night and vice versa... anyone one else experiensed the same thing or is this a server related problem with the weather providers?
Dunno sorry but I have noticed that the weather app is usually around an hour behind "dawn" wherever I am. And I think that the closk is set correctly.
ok... couse it's been light outside for 4 hours now... last night it showed me it was sunny when it had been dark outside for like 12 hours
I've also had that. mine just seems to correct itself after a soft reset!!
check your location..

Yes, I find when I am on the moon that it always seems to be nightime on the weather tab. Sorry, couldn't resist. For me it is nothing to do with the location, it cleary says the location beside the idcon and it's always correct.
Regards.
When you set up your HD2 after a hard reset, you may be tempted to disable the Google locations because the system warns you it my cause data costs. But if you disable it, your weather information will be wonky, including the midnight sun and noon-day moon.
similar problem raised here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618284
HD2 software and updates did not cause this problem. It seems the problem is caused by the weather source -- AccuWeather.com.
I cured the problem by doing a hard reset to remove all hot-fixes and enabling Google locations.

Here is the response from AccuWeather:
Stephen,
You will need to contact HTC with the issue you are having. AccuWeather only provides the data and we found it was not a data feed issue.
AccuWeather Solution Center
does anyone know can i change to get weather information not come from AccuWeather, maybe change back to local weather center, for example, i'm in hong kong, can i change the source come from hong kong observatory?
Here's something: I notice that in the registry, the AccuWeather string is set to :
EUR|UK|UK001|LONDON
Anyone tried changing it to:
ASI|HK|HK---|HONG KONG
(p.s. I get a 'communication error' when I try.)
really want to change, as the informations are different from local center

I contacted AccuWeather too, but I did not tell them the problem is on HTC. I gave them the screenshot of their website (which shows a moon @ 9:xx am) per their request.
The problem may have been fixed, but I can't confirm as HK is raining ... so no moon nor sun.

Optus Usage Widget

The actual app from Optus works a treat, but the widget just says "There was an error displaying your usage". Anyone else having trouble with it?
Same problem here. Nfi how to fix.
No luck here either.
If it actually worked, took up less space on the screen (maybe 4 icon spots or less instead of 8!!!), and usage was updated more regularly (delayed up to 24hrs tsch...) then it would be perfect.
But alas, it fails. Still, I keep the app on my homescreen.
Not sure what issues you guys are having, im running Version 1.0(1) and it works fine!
do you know by any chance the link to download this app?

Have you tried the widget, not just the app? Cause it's the widget that doesnt work for us (should display the usage but errors).
Also I think theres only 1 version out atm.

Luckily I dumped it before firmware (CSC) update, because that removed all the optus apps.

No worries.
Sorry I wasn't quite clear in my wording...
I meant I dumped the optus app before I upgraded firmware.
I flashed to JFB, then JFF, then JG1. I can't notice many improvements... In fact my phone is a bit more laggy at JG1 (but I have more apps installed so I presume it's that).
I would flash to JG3 but... I don't wanna have to restore all my settings and data again... (done it about 5 times).
I wouldn't mind having a copy of original AUS firmware for safety reasons... or at least the CSC (contains all the carrier specific info).
It's doing the same thing for me. Curses.
ahh common problem I see. wonder how this stuff is logged...

Hey guys, quick 2 Optus-related questions. Switched from 3 to them when I bought my Galaxy S yesterday.
1) How can you find out your account number? I've registered a username and password for using the My Account app, but it wants an Account Number that it states will be on my bill, the first of which I obviously won't be receiving for a while...
2) Is there a backup of the stock Optus firmware (JF3) including all the pre-loaded apps just in case any of us ever need to return the phone under warranty to load it back to its factory settings and firmware?
Cheers!
1) It's annoying you don't get it when you first sign up, but it's written on your first bill (pro-rata which is only a few days).
Apparently you can also call up optus and get it off customer service, however I didn't know this so I just waited.
2) No there isn't a proper flashable dump, unfortunately. If you do decide to flash your firmware (it's worth it if you can't wait for official updates.. which are very slow).

Well, I flashed a newer firmware but now I don't have mobile internet since the APN settings need to be set. =(
Where can I find the settings to use, or is there some way to get it to find them automatically?

Aha, found them thanks to the awesomeness of Ausdroid!
http://ausdroid.net/apns/
^ use those to find the APNs for all aussie networks once you've flashed a new firmware. Make sure you have wifi turned off when you enter the info, and once the settings are in press menu -> save and within a few seconds the 3G icon in the notification bar appeared.

For Wind customers "Wind Home" now shows correctly in 2.3.3!

For Wind customers "Wind Home" now shows correctly! Reception seems better as well.
Yeh I noticed that now
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
looking forward to see that once i fix the dead SNS
I noticed this too. It shows WIND Home or WIND Away once you are connected to the network. But doing a network search still shows 302490 or Rogers Wireless.
confirmed
finally !!! we see the correct names
seems like enough people complained to google about it
Not me.
In Network Operators/Available Networks, I still see "302490", "302320" (which won't register with my SIM) and "Rogers Wireless".
I'm in Toronto. Where are you located?

It only changes after you are registered, i.e) in the search window list you don't see the name, but when your connected you see it in the lock screen etc.

"WIND" doesn't appear on my unlock screen or in the notification area, but then I haven't updated to 2.3.3. (Should have read the thread's title!)
I guess I'll take the plunge. Thanks!
EDIT: I've updated and now see "WIND Home".
OT, but I prefer the new colour temperature: closer to 6500K.
Just installed CM7 today, and noticed the lockscreen & pull down tray are back to showing MNC instead of WIND Home.
that's a CM7 ROM specific problem
the stock ROM shows the WIND Home properly

Yeah, figured as much.. Was curious what was added in stock 2.3.3 to cause the name to show..
And just now on mine with CM7 it started showing WIND Home. Weird.
