News And weather widget problem - Nexus One General

Is Anyone having a problem with the news and weather widget where the weather graph forecast is not showing the forecast, it only shows upto the time I update to.

Yes, mine's been like it for a while.

Same here. Where are you guys from? It might indicate some failure to communicate between a local data provider and Google. I live in France.
EDIT: Nevermind, just noticed your locations were indicated. Might be that whoever carried the data for Europe stopped...

same here, although i think the graph is correct (next 24 hours), but the scrollable bar shows wrong time and doesn't update the numbers for each hour.
i think it's like this since DST ended last week.

I can confirm it as well.

I can confirm the same behaviour on my carrier.

Same here

Samsies (lol....samesies..lol)

Same here. How odd.

One more member of this club...

ps: fancy widget is back on the market and it looks good

I'm having the same issue.
More specifically, when I drag my finger across the graph the temperature stays the same.

I don't think that has any effect on the forecast plotter...

There are currently a few bugs filed in the google system on this issue with no official update that I can see.

The above link is an instance which also includes some links to duplicates. Not sure if additional comments would have any effect on how fast the issue gets fixed. For now I have just favorited those issues and get updates on occasion.

Good find, starred it.

Lots of complaints. It has to do with daylight savings. http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=14ddf4a0daf367f4&hl=en
EDIT: Oh, and if you change location to Singapore (either irl or in settings [+1 for irl]) it works. So it's on googles end.

The sad part is that this even happened in the Google demonstration yesterday. He tried a few times and just moved on to another wallpaper. LOL.
Did either of you try doing a hard reset to see if that solves the FC?

Same here as well. Mine gets here actually today by 3pm eastern time. My luck it'll come when my wife and I are at work and nobody will be around to sign for the package..
If you go to Settings in Polar Clock and then Color palatte, you can change to different clocks. The only ones that seem to force close are the Polar Bear (dynamic) and Black Hole (dynamic). All the other ones are working fine for me.

No color LED or trackball. Despite statements from Google saying otherwise.
Where is my native exchange calendar functionality? Maybe this wasn't the DROID we were looking for >.>
So if the power button accidentally gets hit while it's in your pocket, your leg's movement doesn't randomly start launching applications/calling people?

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.

Can we fix "no data for current location" sense weather bug?

Hi all
I'm loving the sense clock widget with weather but I have an annoying problem with it; in my home location I don't get any weather information. If I add the exact same location (same capitalisation, spelling etc) manually and set the widget to use that location it works fine and if I leave it on "current location" I start getting weather updates as soon as I leave my local area.
I started pulling some of the APKs with weather in the name from the phone and tried to look at the xmls to see if there was something I could tweak to get it working but the files seem to be in some sort of binary encoding that I can't open, so I'm stuck already.
Anyone able to suggest what to try next to get this working properly?

I've removed and replaced the widget from the home screen but it makes no difference, is that what you mean or is there a way to completely reinstall?
I think it had something to do with your provider settings. When I got the Desire I still had my old provider (KPN). I also had this "current locations weather bug" after two weeks I switched over to Vodafone, updated the APN settings, and everything is ok! Hope this helps you a little!

TThanks for this, tried resaving apn details but no change, so annoying that it work everywhere but at home!
I've emailed HTC support about it, got this reply:
Dear Leszek, Thank you for contacting us in regards to weather updates, I can help you with that. The location service for weather updates is based on information from your cell provider and relies on the masts in your area being enabled for this service. If you are in a 3g area disabling this from settings, wireless controls, mobile networks and then updating may help. I trust that this resolves your query, please do not hesitate to contact us again if required. Thank you for contacting HTC. Best regards, Mike B HTC

to which I replied
Dear Mike, I do not believe that the problem is with the location service -- as I said, my current location is correctly given as "Cambridge (Current)". Nonetheless, I tried disabling the mobile network, and indeed have now tried all combinations of disabling/enabling the mobile network, wireless and gps, none of which worked. Is there a way to see exactly what weather data the device is requesting? I know I had trouble on a previous phone, which was requesting data for "Cambridge, Cambridge" instead of "Cambridge, UK".

Still waiting for a reply to that one -- it's been a week though, so it's becoming unlikely that they'll actually reply with a real solution.
I have search around and can't find a solution either, at the end, i just remove the time widget, add to the home screen again, and choose city instead of current location...

This is what I have done as a work around but I would like to use the location aware one as it's cool to have the local weather when I commute to work (40miles away), was hoping we could hack the app to make it work better as it doesn't look like HTC are going to finish. I guess I need to dust off my Java skills and start reading about JF's decompiler.
I have the same issue and find it very annoying!
I installed "Beautiful Widgets" and set that up to show the clock with weather set to be location based and it works fine (unfortunately it's not quite as beautiful as the HTC widget!).
Surely this proves that the bug is with the HTC widget and not anything provider based? Anyone else fancy trying to see if Beautiful widgets works when the HTC widget doesn't?
Similarly, the weathernetwork widget works fine for my location whereas the HTC one doesn't

Weather widget issue with My Location

I've got a problem that's not related to GPS but locations. When I'm at home, the weather widget says my location is Sweden, however, Google Maps finds almost my exact location (two streets away or so). If I take a one km walk it finds the location and says Stockholm. I tried re-installing the locations software with no luck. Maybe my phone doesn't like my flat? :S
LOL....I don't think location app is displaying weather....

If you read what I actually said I clearly state that it's a problem with the weather widget (which naturally does display weather)
I have a different, but frustrating issue:
On the clock widget where you also can see your location and the weather:
I live in a town called Geldrop in the Netherlands, which always showed on the clock widget, including the weather corresponding to this town.
Now since a couple of days (do not know when exactly)...it just says: 'current location'...when I select the widget, bring it to the left bottom on the homescreen to edit it, I cannot select Geldrop anymore, it says it does not exist.....
My girlfriend has a DHD as well, and hers still says Geldrop.
Now, I do have flashed Leedroid, kernels etc, etc, so I am not sure if that has anything to do with it...but is anyone able to point me in the direction of the solution?

The problem I'm experiencing only seems to appear when I'm in Stockholm, nowhere else.
I had the same problem with it saying "Current Location" before too, both on the DHD and my old WM. It solved itself eventually. However, the reason Geldrop doesn't "exist" is because it's not added in the built in database that comes from HTC. Because of this, you'll only see Geldrop when it's your current location since it gets the name of the location via AGPS and then looks it up on Acuweather.com. There's a program to edit the database for WM which I used to add Opitter in Belgium with, but I don't know if there's one for Android.

This actually makes sense
I have now chosen Eindhoven, as it is next to Geldrop and the weather is very similar

Yes, but the fact that your girlfriends phone finds the location while yours doesn't is very strange since it's the same device. I will report this tomorrow.
Another thing that's strange is the weather animation for fog. On the weather tab it says FOG with black letters all over the animation while this text is not visible on the clock widget. I asked HTC about this and they said it's all as it should be. Seems strange to me though.

It is strange....it is not a big issue, but would like to see Geldrop, rather than Eindhoven.
When you say 'will report this' what do you mean?

Contact their dev support.
Okey, so I mailed HTC today and they told me to remove the ip for the Proxy and port from the API, which seemed a bit strange to me, and to my disappointment it only made it worse by saying "Connection failed". Yey!
I am having the exact same problem, my original htc weather widget shows only "Sweden". This happened since the upgrade to 2.2.
I'm pretty sure the weather information is correct though. Since I've compared it to other weather apps and widgets. I've switched to beautiful widgets temporarily (well for a couple of months now), and there it shows even the parts of stockholm if I move around. Right now it's showing Fruängen which is correct.
I remember reading about some problem with the htc weather widget long ago on the modaco forums when 2.2 came. I don't think it's fixed yet (at least from HTCs side).

Yeah. That was my argument too when I spoke to HTC, but they said it's Googles fault even though Google maps finds my location correctly. They didn't accept it as their fault and therefore they didn't even file a report about it to the developers.
Badly handled HTC!

Hello,
I've got a similar problem with weather widget and location too...
I went to a small village for Christmas and since this time, my location in the widget is locked at this village.
When I open the weather app, I can see my good location very quickly, but after the refresh the location returns to the bad village.
And my location in google maps or in google’s website is good...
I have the same problem I have to delete all data for weather and clock and update it again. anyone have any idea why this happen?

Calendar shows wrong time?

So the preinstalled Calendar app shows my events from Google Calendar all wrong time... I mean the time is correct but instead of PM, it says AM and vice versa... Did anyone experience something like that? I was trying to figure out how to fix it but haven't found a solution or a setting to adjust.
Thanks.

Wife and I got T Mobile S7 Edge's at the same time and my calendar was fine, but hers has this same issue (but 11 hours off.) Haven't checked her time zone yet, she just noticed it, but if something else, I will let everyone know what I had to do.

Yeah it's really weird... I think it's a bug... as the time show PM instead of AM but when I tap on the item, it pops up and shows me the correct one...
Now that I turned off locked to timezone option, it shows correctly.
