Beautiful Widgets Weather Doesn't Update - Vibrant General

Hey guys,
I just installed the JI6 update on my Vibrant yesterday. When I add the Beautiful Widgets Weather on my homescreen it doesn't update. Has anyone else had this problem?

Did you delete the widget and re-add it?
Check your city information?
Swith from accuweather to google?
Did you check to refresh on waking up the phone?

1. I opened up App Brain and synced it with my phone and all the apps I had installed pre-JI6 were there waiting to be installed. I just chose to install from there again.
2. I put in my location, tested, and also then checked Geolocation.
3. I have it set to Accuweather, I have not tried using Google.
4. Refresh is checked.
Chad

Quick update.
I uninstalled and re-installed Beautiful Widgets. I then put the widget back on the home screen and it now works.
Thanks for giving me the idea of just uninstalling and reinstalling the app.

Hmm... perhaps just uninstall and reinstall?

Had problems with the weather widget too
I had to uninstall and reinstall but from time to time it seems to time out... in my case I just figured it must have some conflict with something else I installed because the problem is just too random

Widgets gone?

Good Day !
I turned on my A500 (rooted) this morning and my location and weather widgets were gone. I had to reinstall them and had the weather widget kept crashing. It finally worked the third time. Anyone else having similar problems? Thanks !

I think it's normal to lose all your widgets when rooting. It happened to me too.

are you using any type of launcher or widget locker?
Thanks for the replies. I rooted my A500 a couple of days ago... I have turned off a few times in between. (Adding media to SD card, etc). I am not using any launcher or widget locker. I rebooted a few times just now and everything seems to be back to normal.

launcher force close

I do not have it rooted, nor do I have a 3rd party launched on there, I downloaded a text widget app which I believe may have something to do with why its doin this because it only started doing it when I tried to apply the widget to one of my screens, I have also tried to turn of off and then it back on but no luck.
Can anyone tell me there is a wah to access the apps and they to delete it by pluging it in and doing it that way? Would really hate to have to recover to a previous version
I don't quite understand what is going on. Does your launcher force close only when you try to put the widget on the screen, or does it force close on booting now?
If it is just when you put the widget on the screen, then there is something wrong with that widget and you can just uninstall it.
Sorry,no it does it now even when I boot

What app or widget?
I think it was literally called text widget, it was 4 stars and had over 10,000 dls so I didn't think anything about t I guess
this is the app I dl'd
https://market.android.com/details?...ch_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS50VGV4dCJd
well I was able to get it fixed by just spamming the settings button and was able to get to the applications and manually un-install it

Google Calendar

Hello all,
I recently flashed FORCE ROM and love it. However one thing I do miss is the stock Google calendar widget. The green one that shows the entire month. I've downloaded the one from the play store but that just doesn't cut it. I've pulled the .apk from my stock backup but I cannot get it to install. Anyone know how I can get this widget back? Thanks!
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
Any luck with this?
I had to disable the widget to get TouchWiz home working again and I can't find the default widget.

You can try the GO Calendar Widget as an alternative!
Ok, after re-enabling calendar widget and rebooting phone, the default month calendar widget is available.
However, as soon as I try to attach it to a home page, TouchWiz home stops working as soon as I access that screen.
All other screens work fine.

[Q] Accuweather widget not loading correctly on AT&T S4

Sorry if this has been addressed, but the search function in XDA has been down for the last couple of days. I have a problem when I turn on my phone from the lock screen, the Accuweather widget will display "Restart Widget, Problem loading widget". Not a big deal as it has a button to easily do that, but it can be restarted, I can lock the phone, and 5 seconds later unlock it and it will display this. It doesn't do it all of the time, but probably half of the time. It will do it with the normal widget and the transparent one as well. I don't think it's the widget because I have other widgets (like a kill apps button that will display the text "Ending All Applications" and it won't work all of the time either. I never noticed this before I rooted my phone. I have an AT&T S4 with MF3 firmware. This happens while on stock or custom roms also. Anyone have any similar happenings or suggestions to help?

I had the exact issue just a day or two ago - I just got annoyed and totally uninstalled the widget, restarted the phone, reinstalled the widget and haven't had a problem since. Give that a shot if you haven't?

I'm currently on the stock rom and opened up Titanium Backup to uninstall it. It wasn't named SamsungWidget_Weather as I would have expected. Can you let me know the name of the app that you uninstalled? I'll give your suggestion a try.

Z.A.D.Mix7 Widget Time Not Updating

Anyone else have this issue with Z.A.D.Mix7 v0.3?
I'm using Transparent Weather and sometimes the time freezes. If I resize the widget, the time updates. This seems to be happening to my calendar widget too, Simple Calendar Widget.
Hoping someone can help with the time not updating as it's driving me crazy. I was fine with stock rom, but had the same freezing problem and was hoping Z.A.D.Mix7 would fix the issue.
-In Power Manager, Smart power-save and Ultra Power Saving Mode are turned off.
-Power management for apps -Simple Calendar Widget Pro - 0 power saving policies enabled.
-Transparent weather clock - 0 power saving policies enabled.
When stock, I had Nova installed, but not the beta version.
Put the Transparent Weather APP under protected Apps, and Also put it on Autorun list Apps (This solved this issue for me in the Chinese version)

Z.A.D. Mix doesn't have Mi-Assistant, same with stock A2017U. If it exists, I can't find it. Thanks for replying though.
Too bad would be nice to have
