After updating the system to 1.84.832.2, HTC Weather cannot update information via mobile network. An error message stated: "The connection dropped while your weather information was downloading...." HTC Weather can obtain update weather information via wifi network without problem.
Other weather widgets can auto update via mobile network within set interval without problem except HTC Weather. Any body has the same issue after system update in your area?
I have searched in Google there is another post in GSMArena DHD review another user reported on 23 Mar 2011 faced the same issue after system update:
http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_desire_hd-reviews-3468.php
Really wonder only a few unlucky user can't update the weather information after this system update.
Damn, I can confirm I'm also having this problem, just checked mine now and the last time it updated was the time I updated my software yesterday. When I go into the weather app now it won't update.
EDIT, the version I'm on is 1.84.110.3
EDIT, contacted HTC and they said to fix this I must wipe my phone, guess I'm not going to have any weather updates until the next update is released.

Hi there I've got the same problem Ive reset the phone still got the same problem wot a pain so I would think if would need another software update
I'm having the same problem. At first I thought it was just difference between my mobile provider and my wifi at home. (The great firewall messes with things very unevenly).
Definately started after the lasted update. In fact I feel like I'm having gprs/edge issues a lot more since the update.
Wifi is fine though.
I'm having the same ISSUE TOO!~ what's HTC doing? keep calling us to wipe our phone to solve problems... don't they have engineers to fix the customer's problems?
Me too with the same problem. I am with UK TMobile, standard ROM, and weather updates stopped dead after the OTA update.
Strangely, weather updates work if I am logged into my home wifi network.
Not impressed.
Its been an absolute nightmare and Tmobile dont want to do anything.. think a root is coming.. lol..

Don't trust on hard reset the DHD can fix this issue since I have done that on day one and the weather still does not auto update. It has to be fixed by HTC via another patch to the latest system update.
Same problem as mine.
"Connection dropped ... blah blah blah" keeps appearing while trying to update weather via mobile network (2G/3G)
WiFi works fine though.
I use DHD in thailand and updated to 1.84 a week ago.
No weather problem
My self not facing any problem on the update 1.84.832.2.
My weather update is functioning in good condition.
I can confirm that, at least in my case, a factory reset fixed the problem.
or maybe its fixed on their end at the same time as I did a reset...
My weather doesnt work either.
I'll wait for a fix. Not going to reset.
I can update the main weather using WiFi, but the "news&weather" app refuses to work.

Same for me after OTA - no weather update. Rubbish.
IT WORKS AGAIN!
Not sure how. I tried downloading another weather app 'aix weather' (or something). That installed but couldn't locate it to run it, so I removed it.
Tried my news&weather on WiFi and it worked. So I disconnect and tried on 3g, and it still works!

Interesting, I think I will try this later.
EDIT. I tried this and it did not work. On another note I've been updating my weather on my phone via WiFi and I've noticed that its predictions are far different to that of http://uk.weather.com/ Which one is wrong ?
"Android News and Weather" and "HTC News" can update via mobile data but "HTC Weather" can only update via wifi connection. Hard reset did not fix HTC Weather update via mobile data connection.
HTC said there was nothing wrong with the update... and suggested I reset again which didn't help.
They suggested to contact my network provider.. which again was load of crap...
I ended up flashing a stock Rom and believe me guys I love my phone even more since.. battery life is far better in the stock Rom

I'm not facing the problems. At time of reading this post, the HTC weather app just updated itself.
Could it be a problem at the HTC end and they fixed it already?

Hey guys hope you can help me. I've been using internet sharing for a while but since HTC's most recent OTA update I cant get it to work while on 3G/HSDPA - the laptop cant seem to communicate with the DNS servers and I get an exclamation mark in a yellow triangle by the connections icon in the system tray. When forcing the Desire to use GPRS it works well - although its very slow, obviously.
Interestingly 3G/HSDPA works fine on my Desire - I get emails and web browsing no issues there. I also noticed since the update that it takes an awful long time for the radio on my desire to start data connection (a good 30''). i guess both issues are related to the OTA update which, by reading comments on this forum seemed to create more problems than it solved. Any idea guys as to what tweak I could use to force the laptop to connect to the DNS servers when using 3G on my desire?
cheers

I've had the exact same experience on my t-mobile wildfire - > apply the OTA O/S update and Internet Sharing stopped working!!! (It worked fine before on Windows 7 and XP)
Grrrrr...
Anyone have any ideas?
I also read that a factory reset fixes the tethering issue in several places and will see how badly it fracks the phone up (or whether everything gets downloaded neatly again automatically) and report back here...

My HD2 refuses to update "my location", but it updates when am on wifi!!. have search the whole internett without coming to a solution. can anyone help?
It all of a sudden stopped working.
Yes, I have the same, it works via wifi and data line but not when connected to the computer.
Bye,
Itamar
Anyone?
Why can i update my location on WIFI and not via my phone network?
everything else is working just fine.
Frustrating!!
It should work, what you do is disconnect your data connection, turn of 3g and then on again, that normally does the trick!
Dont work, have also tried to flash back to stock rom(from Artemis), both 1.66 and 3.14. currently on Artemis V25.0, but also tried V36.0
Anyone else?
Same problem here. I'm on Energy Oct 13 Cookie, radio 2.12.50.02_2. Location update works for ca 12hrs and then stops working. After that update only via Wifi.
Any ideas?
Anyone?
have to be a solution to this...

What works for me is turning airplane mode off and then on again, annoying but it does work!
Maybe
Go to Start Menu, Setting, Connections, Connections.
Then click on Advanced and Select Network.
Try to change both Network.
Then launch QuickGPS and go update your locaiton.
(I said maybe ^^)
Does Google maps pick up your location? I think the weather location uses the Google API's.
Weather Updating Issues
been having this problem for a few day, with a few different roms including the new 3.14 from T-Mobile USA. Tried the toggleing 3g and the data connection and it worked

Yes. Google find my location.
it works in Oslo Norway, was there today, but not where i live. it worked before.
I've had this problem the last few days too. Presumed it was the custom ROM that I just flashed, as that's when I noticed (but I'd been running Android for a while so wouldn't have noticed before anyway).
As with others it works on wifi but not data connection.
Google Maps picks up my location.
Starting to think the problem is not our devices!
starting to think so too, as it works other places.
It works again!! havent done nothing, just started working again
well, really hope it stays like that!!!
Mine works now too!
task 29,28 and diffrent roms
i also had this problem for several weeks with a l26 leo v4.5 rom. my location would not update within sense. nobody else seemed to have the same problen. sr, hr, reflash of same rom would not solve the problem. then i found a new rom i wanted to flash and i used task 29 and 28 before flashing the new rom. after flashing my location would once again update and never had the same issue again.
hope this helps
it's a carrier tower problem and the way it accesses weather from accuweather. It happens to all htc devices from time to time. I suggest y'all check out here instead, much better weather app:

i'm bumping this. my HD2 now only says what County i'm in, not the Town.
But i have now got a Desire HD, and the Desire is showing what town i'm in?
What is that all about? i'm not the only one, why the Desire HD but not the HD2?
T-Mo HD2 Weather/Location/Time not Updating via 3G
My wife and I are experiencing the same problems too with our HD2's.
It started last Saturday (02-19-11) when I left the town my mom lives in (over 1.5hrs from me) for two days my phone was stuck on her town.
As for my "location settings", we've already removed all the other locations and have updated to the latest offical roms. Still nothing.
I started researching the problem some and came across this as a manual fix:
At the homescreen select Phone -> Menu -> Options... -> (scroll down to bottom) Band -> (Select) GSM and then close out back to the homescreen.
From here you can go and update your weather again and it works but the down side is now you're in Edge mode. To put it back into 3G, go back through the same steps and at the end select "auto".
I have also tried updating to the latest version of Google Maps and rebooted and still nothing. Yes, Google Maps locates me via GPS and my CoPilot8 also finds my location.
Even more confusing when I switch over to Andriod via SD Card, my weather/location update just fine. ARGH!
So any help would be greatly appreciated!
Hey
Since I have been on the latest facebook version I do not get any notifications when I am on 3G Mobile Internet. Works perfectly fine when I am on Wifi.
The error I get say "can't connect to peers". Any tips how to fix this ?
For some reason version 1.5.1 of the Facebook just does this. I'm not sure exactly WHY, but there's some kind of bug. If you can revert to 1.5.0 it works just fine. Other than that, we'll just have to wait for a fix.
My updates stopped working on the version prior to 1.5.1, it did not matter if I was on 3G or WiFi. I updated to 1.5.1 which made no difference so I reverted back to the previous version and still nothing.
I personally think it's got nothing to do with what version you running, I think Facebook has changed something that has stopped this.
Yeah, since I updated to the latest version I don't get any notifications via 3G while WiFi works fine. I think that it's a bug on Facebook's end.

Hello all, this was brought to my attention today, courtesy of my news feed from mobile syrup.
Today Telus is pushing out an OTA update to Gingerbread, and according to the picture in the link, it looks like it has a new radio with it too. I have no clue about how to get a hold of this, but I thought I would pass on the information to the folks here.

I notice my weather now updates to my current location,other than that,I'm still playing.
I posted some information in the HTC Desire HD radio thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15005471&postcount=1619
So far here is what i found after update
Quadrant benchmark is max at 1580
Program opens a bit faster
HTC Message widget no longer have any choice on which sms program to open from
much faster on phone reboot
So is this Telus GB rootable?
Is anybody else having horrible 3G data issues with this update? Whenever I'm not connected to Wifi and attempt to use data my phone reboots. It has made my phone completely unusable. So far I haven't heard of anybody else with my issue though....
It also does not seem rootable. In an effort to prevent having to take my phone in to Telus I tried rooting and failed.

I've been having issues where it won't connect to mobile network .When I try to do it manually it tells me my SIM won't work with Telus,but restarting the phone fixes the issue,still very annoying.
That's a weird one. Mine's even worse though. If I leave my phone in my pocket it restarts about once every minute or two.
Helllo,
I could not find any revelant thread for this and so i waited for the Marshmallow update and not yet to come so i thought i could use some professional help to fix this irritating issue.
I have HTC One m9+ and so far everything is going well with the phone, except one single thing and driving me crazy which is the internet issue.
I have two major issues:
1- When phone is on WIFI at home and i did not use for some time, the phone seems to be disconnected from the internet .. and i have tried all possible tweaks and settings for power saving and sleeping but nothing worked so far, the only thing that is possible for me is to keep on data 4G all the time, which comes the other problem
2- When on Data (3g or 4G) the phone sometimes loses connectivity completely, i just have to wait and wait until i get 4G connection again.. although signal is ok and i still receive calls but just data stops.. i tried matching settings like my galaxy note 3 and checking different APN from ISP but still same.
However, the first problem is more important, but if you can help me with both it will be great
Hello, update that the problem is actually in Whatsapp application and not the rest of the phone, on WIFI whatsapp does not receive any messages unless i open it after unlock (works fine on data)
I tried PNF and change heart beat but still the same. background data is enabled for whatsapp, notification all good, reinstalled application.. still the same
Do you have some ports blocked at your Wifi? WhatsApp and other messenger like Viber are using some ports which may be blocked at Univercity Wifi or other Wifi's...

i had the same problem but i solved out on HTC m9 + . bluetooth and wifi doesnt work together get speedtest app and try it with that when yopu have bluetooth on wifi speed gets under 0.1 mb download and 0 upload speed after you shutdown the bluetooth wifi is ok this problem comes with the 1.08.401.6 change your firmware
Yes, I get exactly the same. Seems that switching on Bluetooth causing significant issues with Wi-Fi. Should have been fixed by HTC ages ago.
I am on the latest EU firmware 1.90.401.3 - I don't think it used to be an issue.
