Sense 2.1 Weather Locations Tied to World Clock

I just upgraded to VZ's 6.5 (MR1). I didn't see this happening before and wonder if there is a way to fix it.
After adding two cities to the World Clock, I noticed that those two locations were also added to the weather locations. I don't really want them under weather, just the world clock. I deleted them as weather locations but that also removed them from the world clock.
I don't believe this used to happen with Manila/6.1. Before I upgraded, I had some cities for the clock and separate locations for weather.
Anyone know of a fix. Maybe they're in separate locations in the registry and can be edited manually?
Thanks!

Yeah I noticed this. I tried turning off location but that didn't work. To me its not a big deal at all but hopfully someone can find a solution for you.

[REQ] Other Weather Wallpaper as Animated Wallpaper

What I'm looking for is a way to use the other weather wallpaper as my animated wallpaper.
I see in the weather demo, weather conditions like windy and with snow which I think will never be the weather on my country / location.
Although I really like the animation and want to set it as my animated wallpaper. I think someone else might might want this too. And later on maybe we will be able to mod this like the circles animated wallpaper.
Has anyone found a way or would like to embark on this request?

hi,
don't know if this can help, but ther is an app (Weatherpanel) that use changing wallpaper synchronized to the weather.

Weather forecast widget

Does anyone know where I can find a widget that is basically identical to the Weather Forecast one in the ManUP456's REVOlution theme,but gets its data from somewhere more reliable.
I love the way that it looks. It fits my home screen perfectly.
The problem is with the data itself. For instance, the app says that yr.no says that the temperature is going to be 80° here tomorrow, but the Weather Channel forecasts a temperature of 96° (definitely more like it).
I'm not sure if it's a problem with incorrect data, an inaccurate conversion from Celsius to Fahrenheit, or what.
There really isn't much point in a weather forecast if it's horribly inaccurate, though.
Any suggestions are welcomed.
Thanks, guys.

Sure its exactly the name of your thread title. Search the market for "Weather Forecast Widget" its much much more reliable and looks good as well.

That is the widget in Manup's theme. I also use it but find the data to be less than accurate.

I downloaded the "Weather Forecast Widget" by Francois DESLANDES from the market.
I like it so far. It doesn't have the 7 day forecast like yr.no's, but the four day forecast shows up instead.
Here is my quick review:
Widget sizes include the following:
1x1
2x1 full day
2x1
2x2
4x1
4x2 *
4x3 *
4x4 *
* includes forecast and calendar
The weather can be aggregated from Google or NOAA (much more accurate than yr.no).
With the paid version, you can choose from 17 different icon sets and 27 backgrounds.
I tend to prefer the HTC icon set (someone derived the HTC weather icons from the weather app so they could be used here).
The widget sizes that includes the calendar has current conditions or today's forecast (your choice) at the top and the forecast for the next two days below it with each day's events listed below its respective day. (A tap will take you to the calendar app of your choosing)
This is a great widget set for my purposes. It is incredibly customizable.
If you're looking around for a good weather widget, try the free app. If you're like me and need more visual customization, go for the paid app key.​
Here is the AppBrain Link for all interested: http://www.appbrain.com/app/org.koxx.forecast_weather.v2
Thanks, guys.

Agreed. Great looking widget, but completely inaccurate data. When I finally got it to acknowledge that I'm in Tampa and not Jacksonville, temps were still way off.

That is odd. In my case, the location is spot on and the temperatures mirror the NOAA website perfectly.
In lieu of funcrusher's experience, results may vary.
I'd still recommend it though.

My bad, I was referring to the one in manup's theme.
Trying Weather Forecast Widget now.

Haha. I probably should have figured that out. Oh well, a full day of classes has me a little slow at this point.

its nice. too bad you cant skin the free version. some Buff icons would be nice.

Without a doubt the best is Snowstorm. For some reason it's very hard to find in the market as it doesn't appear under "weather widgets" search, but it works fantastically. Also the first reply for "Weather Forecast Widget" is decent advice. It's great as well.

Snowstorm seems useful, but I tend to like how weather widgets displays both the high and low for each day. I haven't spent much time with it, so I'm not exactly sure if there is a way to do what I'm talking about.
I do like the forecast screen on snowstorm much more than weather widgets, but there are trade offs.

[Q] Show weather AND time of location

Hi guys.
I have tried many widgets now.
I'm locking after a widget wich show weather AND the time of the location I add.
Many widgets that I have tried shows the weather of the location, but not the time there.
For example, I'm here in Norway and add Miami as location. All the widgets I have tried shows the weather there, but not the time. It shows the time here in Norway.
Is there any widgets wich can do as I explained above? I've been looking for so long and tried soo many apps!
Please help! Thanks

I tried a program called world forecast widget that worked very good, BUT the widgets are to small. The size is only 2x1 and I want 4x2 (or bigger)
Please anyone know about a app for me?

How do I show only the current weather and not the 4 day forecast?
btw, celsius is spelt with 2 's.
Thanks.

oooh nice and clean. keep it up!
using it right now.

This is great. I agree with nyloncrack above, that there should be an option for just the current weather. And also, for the notification icon, it would be much more useful if you had the current temperature instead of that image of a sun. Great app though!

Thanks for the share.Great idea for people that don't want a weather app on the home screen.

Here's the link for those who want to click directly from here: http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.orbar.NotificationWeather

I'm working on adding more customization options
nice catch on the Celsius typo. new version should be up shortly

looks nice but it's incompatible with my at&t htc one x
*didn't see it was 4.1+

Very good!!!

Great app. Would love the option to disable 4 day forecast. Looking forward to added features!

This is a beautifully made app, congratulations! Just a request, could you add other languages, like Brazilian Portuguese? If you need help with translation I can help you with that!

Another request, can you please let us choose the weather providers? I'd like to use yr.no instead of Yahoo. They have a MUCH more extensive list of cities, especially in small countries like mine. Yahoo only has the capital and about 2-3 cities.
In all cases, thanks A LOT. Just a few days ago I was asking on Twitter if someone knew a weather forecast app that made use of Jelly Bean's notifications. And now, you did it!

A few additions:
1. Maybe add the option to have rain probability for today.
2. German "Umlaute", like ö, ä, ü will not display correctly.
Nice app all in all. I will try it out for a few days and then decide on keeping it or not =)

LOOKS GREAT!!!!
Just what I have been looking for.
For those that don't want 4day forecast, just two finger swipe up on the notification and it will shrink it.
The only suggestion I have: have an option to get rid of icon in status bar.
But looks great man, might I ask where you learned your coding? I would like to get into it.

I like it. Although when I uninstalled it, my phone restarted. GS3 with CM10 nightly.

Looking great, congrats!
As far as I know, you can't get rid of the icon, so it'd be great to have the current temp on it (yes, it has to be an icon resource, so you'll have to generate icons for all possible temps... sucks, I know)

Would you consider sharing the source code? I'm interested in programming a somewhat similar permanent notification widget and really think this could help me out.

Are you running 4.1? this app requires APIs that were introduced with JB.

Google introduced expandable notifications in android 4.1 (jelly bean) so unless they backport it to ICS, I won't be able to release it on ICS.
