Just got the TF and brand new to HC3.x. Will be rooting shortly but first I would like to take care of my first issue. The weather widget on the front page doesn't update. I've searched the TF trying to find where to set the sync time and I can't find it. The damn thing hasn't updated the weather since I first turned it on and I've had it now for about 5 days.
Can someone please point out where to set the sync time for this?

Does your tablet have the location set properly?

The location was set properly to my location and that showed up fine. I just gave up and switched to the Beautiful Widgets weather widget. It works.

The weather always updated automatically in the set interval.
Now I have the problem, that it is not updated in the background by itself anymore, but only when going to the weather-tab.
I did not really change anything on the device, but activating stocks-update.
Now I deactivated stocks again completly...
Can anyone help, how to restore the weather update in the background again?

I only have this problem when I have the sms problem, well, I didn't noticed it yet. Gonna watch it!
I have the same problem
Not sure if this is how its supposed to work. Defintiely not in my mind. The auto-update should work even if the weather tab is not in focus.
I.e. if my phone stays on Home screen forever and weather is set to update every 3 hours, the weather on the home clock should reflect it. However, this "auto-update" is not happening and to get it to update I have to click weather tab everytime.
Any ideas/cabs floating around ?
I cant get my location to work.
and if it did, it will put me in wrong location, thousands of miles away from where I am really are

Yup, once I reach the Weather tab, i see the last update time in there (from many hours past, the last time I had accessed it). And immediately it connects and updates with latest weather and time.

i have the same situation and i am too quite annoyed by it.
I'm gonna take a wild guess here and say that you've not got a 1.66 ROM. This was a problem in all ROMs prior to 1.66, but is fixed in that.
There is no fix available anywhere for just this problem. If you're that bothered by it then you have to upgrade your ROM version.
The weather on the home page with v1.5 you could add locations with a map search. I noticed that with v2.1 the map point location 'tool' is not there. I am trying to load certain locations to my weather and 2.1 version doesn't list any cities like version 1.5 did.
Is this a bug or a change? or am I missing something?
They expect you to know where you want to know the weather or else why would you want to know the weather? Confusing
Confusing, yes
Whether or not I know the weather is neither their business nor mine? I'd rather know whether the weather is more pleasant rather than not, in places i'd rather be....whether here or there.
author unknown. It's better that way.
sorry if I'm wasting time. Thanks to all of you who helped all of us who need "Eris and Android 2.1 for Dummies"!
All punning aside, I love the animations on screen. The rain drops had me nervous the first time they came up. The clouds passing by was neat. I think my favorite is the sunshine's aura.
There are TONS of complaints about the Eris weather widget. It's a flaky one for sure. We have three Eris's in my house and have yet to get all of them to work correctly, in spite of me spending lots of time on the phone with HTC. Mine actually works pretty well right now. My wife's would never display the correct city, but we could get close. After upgrading hers, it showed the correct city for the first time EVER...for a little while. The next day, it would only say "current location".
Sometimes your computer monitor makes a fantastic sounding board. As I sat here typing this, a thought popped into my head on the subject. Just grabbed the wife's phone (and some boob on the way by ) and went into settings>location and found that GPS was enabled, but network location was not. Turned on both and voila`...the correct city name popped up. Check your location settings. That's all I got for ya...I hope it works.

I have another issue with the HTC weather/clock widget. I've reloaded this new ROM 3 times already to see if there was an issue with installing other clock/weather programs but I have not been able to fix it.
On my home screen, the weather shows correctly (current location) and updates much quicker than the 1.5 ROM did.
When I tap the clock, by default it goes to "Desk Clock" Where it shows the time, weather and across the bottom you can choose between the world clock, alarm, stopwatch and timer.
The problem I am having is that the weather in this screen is stuck on Akron, OH. While I don't have anything against Akron, I don't particularly care about the weather there (its 640 miles away). I've deleted the location in the weather widget settings but every time the "Desk Clock" loads, sure enough, Akron, OH weather is displayed.
Anyone else with this problem?

Have you tried deleting the stock widget and then adding the htc weather widget and setting a certain location where you live or current location? When you add the new widget it asks what city or current location you want it to default to. I got tired of seeing it set for 14 or current location instead of the city so I just set it to Baltimore as its the closest major city.
hope this helps

I'm not having any problems with the stock time/weather widget on the home screen. It's the desk clock app that also shows the time. If you tap the clock on the home screen it takes you to the different clock, alarm, stopwatch, timer apps and the desk clock app shows the time, date, and weather. It is here that the weather only displays Akron, OH. My home screen updates as expected and about 5x faster than the 1.5 ROM.
Weatherbug live tile not working for me. Just shows the logo. Anyone know what the problem is?
I had the same problem yesterday when i DL'd the app. Give it about 2 hours then it'll update the live tile with your weather.
scroll over four screens - there is a setting option - you can set refresh time for weather

Trying again. Settings are correct. I think I've left it on the home screen for a few days before.
Still not working
What can I check? Live tile for at least this application not working....
Launch app from tile after pinning
I found that the tile updated instantly after I launched the app by clicking the pinned tile. Hope this helps.

I had the same issue after hard-resetting my phone to original factory settings. I uninstalled the app twice, and the third time I set my location to the local international airport instead of a nearby elementary school. After that, the tile went live in a couple of minutes. Not sure what did it, but maybe try selecting some place of repute and not a school.
mine randomly started working about an hour ago...

mine stopped working after a few days, i let it sit on my start screen for a day or so, then disabled push in the settings and took it off the start screen; later i put it back on the start screen but forgot that i had disabled push, and after a day or so it started working...still works now after i enabled the push settings
Yep just started working for me the other day.. Kind of odd
weatherbug live is dead
Weatherbug live tile for me is also dead. Removed for Weather Channel where live tile works.
Mine doesn't. I have to manually update it even though I have the weather in home screen. This is stupid. It's there a way to update like hourly?

How?
Think mine does as well.
There are times I'm not paying attention to the weather and the temperature # will change on the widget without me opening the app and manually refreshing.
Have seen it happen on at least 2 occasions that I can recall. Don't really use the weather app that much in the first place
My weather widget doesn't update. I've heard it might be a bizarre issue where it doesn't update in the EU region. Possibly a GDPR confirmation missed at one point. I didn't want to try this method for my reasons, but you could try setting your phone region to India, for instance, creating the widget and letting it detect your location. If that succeeds, you can revert to your region and the thing should then work, in theory. Let me know if you succeed.
I not working ,you can set up automatic update at night. Between 23 and 7!! Who need update when sleep.
I use Google widget At a glance and its working without any problem. Everyone have it in widget - Google
Only option I have is overnight crap. The weather is so unstable in this part of the world. I need to be able to update at least hourly, automatically of course.
Even if it does update during the night, at 6pm your widget will still be showing weather from 7am
I tried "simple weather & clock" by difer, which almost made it. I realized if you use 3rd party weather app, the time on notification bar stays on, in home screen. Which is annoying because I only want 1 big time shown on weather app that also allow me to access timer and alarm. Who needs 2 of same time shown on home screen? I rather have defect stock weather app, looks neater at least..
I also have the clock always in the status bar. Except for when a notification arrives, or right after unlocking it. It's connected to the default launcher and I'm using the Poco Launcher. I need my app drawer
If you don't want the clock in the status bar, you could use the MIUI clock only widget, and then just a separate widget for the forecast.
