my AccuWeather widget is driving me nuts. I have it set to update hourly. the app itself IS updating hourly, but the widget is not reflecting it. unless I tap the widget to open the app, the weather info on the widget will remain unchanged for until I either tap it or reboot the phone.
any ideas as to what is causing this?
my old s3, and my wife's note 2, don't have this problem.

Most of the time when I install a widget it doesn't show up in the widget list unless I power the tablet of and on again.
Very annoying.
Just got my S4 yesterday. I know that in the S3, the alarm clock widget can be scrolled to view additional alarms that were set up or to create new alarm. I tried to do that on the S4 alarm widget and it seems like it doesn't scroll at all. I'd like to be able to access all of my alarms from the widget. Is it confirmed that the S4 alarm widget is not scrollable or is it just my phone?

it looks like this widget is NOT scrollable. If you have multiple alarms, you have to pick the one that you want displayed in the widget, when you are adding the widget.

That's such a shame. One of the reasons the S3 Alarm widget is so useful is the fact that I can add and manage multiple alarms right on the widget (I use 3 to 4 alarms for weekdays/weekends/certain off days). There's really no reason for me to use the S4 alarm widget then.
Can anyone suggest a good alternative alarm widget?
I figured out how to enable lock screen widgets and all examples show lots more widgets including a calendar widget. I have no calendar widgets of any kind liste. Any ideas?
AT&T S4
Ok, does anyone have the calendar widget listed in their options for lock screen widgets
No I was just looking to do this as well. I'd love to have the 5X5 samsung widget on the lockscreen.

Friend figured it out. Need to install a 4.2 compatible widget. Simple calendar widget does it then it appears. I wish the review sites would mention what they install so we don't pull our hair out thinking something is missing.
So I never seen this before and was quite glad to stumble upon it. With the stock weather widget, if you use multiple locations, on the widget itself, just swipe up or down on the weather icon and it will rotate between the different locations and use their current time setting.
I removed the stock widget that came on my home screen and tried several widgets from the play store, and was unable to find one that I liked. Unfortunately I cannot see to locate the original one. I see the clock widget that had no weather info, and the weather widget is too large. Can anyone help me out with this (or another suggestion)? I just want something small that just displays time, date, and temp. Thanks.
Chronos clock and weather widget has a lot of options, I'm using the paid and have been for years so I may see more than you.
Stock widget is called OnePlus Widget
