[Q] HTC Clock & Weather widget stopped working? - myTouch 4G General

I had the plain ol' HTC Clock & Weather widget (you know the one in the pic below) working fine on my myTouch 4G in Chicago up until yesterday. Now, the weather has stopped updating and it says that the weather data cannot be updated. I can use WeatherBug just fine, my GPS is working, and if I use Beautiful Widgets and choose Google to update the weather as opposed to Accuweather, everything is fine. I can go to the accuweather website, I can do anything! But the widget is dead. There are no Hi/Lo numbers on the right and no animated icon.
Now, Beautiful Widgets is great, but I like that HTC widget. I called HTC and they said it might be hardware related? REALLY? I find that very hard to believe....
Anyone have any ideas what's up? I've seen some threads that reference issues like this in the past, but I don't see how they were resolved.

Search this forum and you'll find this same thing happened a little bit ago. It was a legit outage, at least then.
See of anyone else posts the same issue, you might just be the first seeing it.
I love the HTC weather widget too, so I feel your pain.

I dug around the myTouch 4G thread, but I'm not finding it. Someone else posted the same issue in Chicago also, but no one else seems to be responding yet....
Is it a carrier issue or and HTC issue? Do you know how it was resolved last time?
Thanks!

Hmmm, I clicked the Search box and typed 'weather widget'. Two pages of results came back. On page two...

...you will find the thread (I forgot, I was the one that actually started the thread)

I (and a few others) contacted HTC directly. This incident was a Google server issue...

Sorry. I guess I'm a lousy searcher. I think I was using the wrong terms maybe? And the first link actually didn't return anything for me, but the rest was good to see. In any event, I really appreciate your help/input. I'm guessing this was another outage, especially since it's suddenly back to working - at least intermittently or right at this moment - in Chicago for the first time since Friday!
I'm just bummed that the HTC rep I spoke with suggested a factory reset (luckily I hadn't gotten around to it) or that it was a hardware issue! Particularly if this has happened before, I feel like they should have been able to provide the same guidance you did.
Who's responsible for the servers for that widget - just curious, I guess...
Thanks again.

Sorry, maybe the search ID (/search.php?searchid=61158939) is session-based and has since expired.
As far as who runs the servers...

This might be a lil off topic but it's still pertaining to the weather widget. I went intuit settings and I realize I can't select the option to "update automatically" and set the frequency for how often I want it to update. My only option, which is already selected, is "update when opened"
Is this happening to anyone else??

Weather On WM6

Well now that i have WM6 "the real thing" i no longer had the weather from pocket weather that i once had. Is there a good weather program for WM6 because i can no longer find pocket weather where i got it from and would like a weather today item.
http://www.tonaya.com/products/wtg/index.php
Not the best but it gets the job done and it is free.

Best Place To Go For All Applications, Games And Video Is www.ppcwarez.org if your looking for weather go under search and type that in. Hope that helps. There all kinds of weather apps on that website.

There's WeatherPanel. Its basically free (the developer has stopped working on it and in their forums you can get a patch (or something, don't remember how that worked now) where it will continue to work.

Not a bad app, but I paid for PocketWeather so I continue to use that.

You can go to the sbsh.net site to recover your reg key and then go to their forums to re-download the software. When my computer crashed awhile back, I lost my Word document that had all my reg keys. I sent my registration key request through the sbsh.net site and had an email with it in less than 5 minutes.

I think it's a good idea that we DON'T promote the use of that site. I've used it before to get workarounds for programs I've bought, but never to rip anything off. JMHO and not being accusatory.

I'm running the Chameleon 240 skin now found in that same thread (I've dumped Pocket Weather after finding this skin). I'm loving WeatherPanel now Amazing amount of information available.

"More Details Online" link on Weather tab is bad - any way to tweak that?

I'm baffled as to how HTC and Sprint could let a device go out the door with a dead link in one of their TouchFlo3D tabs!

While the graphics are really nice, this weather app is lamer than lame, particularly since the "More Details Online" link goes to a dead URL at Accuweather! And if you try that URL on a desktop PC, it is verified as bad...
Makes me feel like a fool when a friend who has an iPhone checks it out and sees the dead link. Ohh, impressive... especially when they have the awesome Weather Channel app that plays video and everything...
Anyone know how to tweak that URL in the XML file in Manila?
.
Mine does the same thing.. thats pretty bad they let it go out like that..
Mine does the dame thing too but when I use a difernet city such as Moscow it works fine. Seems like only the Northamerica citys are a dead link
Someone must know what file can be edited for that! I'd imagine the URL just needs tweaking - it's a standard URL which is plugging in the selected city in to the path...
.
there's info about this in the diamond or the touch pro sections, or probably in more places. I forget if it's a file or a reg entry.
Thanks! I'll get to looking! Eager to fix that!

Post the fix I can't find it and its driving me nuts
Hardy har! I can't find a fix that relates to what this thread is about, to save my life! I always get a kick out of people lambasting first-time posters when they ask a question and someone will say "did you search?" because that is easier said than done, particularly in enormous forums such as this!
I tried searching for "More details Online" and it said it was going to ignore the word "More" because it was too common. So searching for "Details" and "Online" brought up threads that had nothing to do with what I wanted, even when narrowing down the search to just the Diamond or the Touch Pro forums. And if I searched for "weather" (and a combination of options such as "issue" "online" etc), I came upon several threads where people were discussing the Weather Tab not updating period (no info whatsoever), but thus far I have not found one post that had to do with the issue of tapping on "More Details Online" and having it take the user to a dead AccuWeather page.
I will keep looking, but it's frustrating - I simply can't believe this is not easily found as seeing a current "What the heck?" type of thread related to the TP2 and the non-functional link! Not here or at PPCG or several other forums I have checked!
The search continues...
A quick look through the registry couldn't find anything. I think I will just forget about it. We will be getting some new roms soon.
Yeah, by the time I find a solution, I'll have 6.5 on this thing and might not even be using TF3D!
Sometimes, refreshing the page in the browser will "fix" the problem and allow the page to be displayed ... not a great fix, I know ...
Holy COW! Levman, you must have the magic touch, because I went to try that, and I tapped on More Details Online>>> and for the first time ever, the AccuWeather page worked!
I didn't even have to hit refresh! I just launched Opera and went to the page!!!
Was definitely something on AccuWeather's end...

Don't get too excited ... that exact same thing happened to me the first time I set out to try this trick (which, in the interest of full disclosure, I'll admit that I learned by posting a question on a forum that Sprint manages). The second time I clicked on "more details online", it was back to the old way and I did have to refresh. I was as surprised as you the first time, when it worked properly without me having to hit refresh.
I have a friend who likes to joke about keeping a bucket of water next to his computer whenever it misbehaves, as a threat ... maybe this had the same effect
I suspect you are right that this is a problem on AccuWeather's end ...
Hmm.... mine works every time for each of the three cities I have selected. So, maybe it is a city specific problem.

I know what you posted above about just "search". I know I read this for my diamond with a definitive way to edit the weather link. I just never bookmarked it.
I just got my TP2 on verizon tonight, but haven't tried that yet. If I do find that it doesn't work, I'll be sure to post up!
I'm fighting the dreaded wifi + active sync not working, ugh. I'm trying to vpn in and sync to my work computer. wifi dies just as soon as I connect any winmo. Reports say AS 6.5 beta works... oh, other computer just booted, gotta run and play!
I just tried, and I still receive the "Error in/M Application" error. I tried the "reloading" trick, with no success. I did not try the bucket of water.

Did you do the setup when you started the phone?
I went back and changed my settings, it didn't say the city in (was it contacts or dialer?), it just said CDT, so I changed it to my city.
Then I ONLY tried right now, went right to accuweather.
----------------
So if you rely on the start/activation screen, you might have to change it, ugh, sorry, can't remember.
Again, this is a VZ phone!

I did go through the setup when I first turned on the phone. I also installed the conflipper north america weather database, as my city was not native to the phone.
I just looked for different settings in the contacts area, etc., and couldn't find anything set incorrectly. I then deleted my city, and added it back in, but still received that error, even after refreshing.
If this turns out to be the biggest problem with this phone, I can live with it!
I would like a weather app, though, that can integrate with TF3D, and also show more than the weather icons. As I've posted elsewhere, I want the forecast, in words.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

status bar advertisement?

Ok, i tried searching, but I havent come up with anything (honest, i swear, haha. I did come up with quick office, but that's not the icon i'm getting).
Anyhow, around noon everyday, I get a notification that looks like a star with a small circle in it (not sure if the icon itself is rom dependant, i'm using CM7). I took a screen cap of it, which i've included, unfortunately, i didn't get the cap of the ad itself, just the icon (damn program i downloaded just for this, lol).
Any ideas of what it may be? I really don't want to have to start uninstalling programs, as it only pops up once a day (so it would take me a LONG time, potentially, to figure it out).
Thanks in advance, and sorry if this isn't the right section, but it didnt happen on my aria...(ignore the ad at the bottom of the page, since thats from the screen cap program i grabbed real fast), only pay attention to the little star icon at the top.)

Could it be astro file manager? Looks similar to the folder icon on your homescreen
Sent from my calculator
hmm, I'm not sure. I had astro on my aria also, and it didn't pop up, I can try removing it to see. I looked through my icons and none are the same as that icon. I'll try to screen cap the actual ad (i clicked on one and it went to viamob or something, so i sent the cancel text to it, to no avail). I thought i checked in running applications last time it popped up, but maybe that was after (i tend to wake up and check notifications when i'm asleep), i'll try it again.
This is at least one reason why I always buy the software that I intend to use, the other reason being to reward the developers for their work.
I buy things I use. But i do have ad-supported software on the phone as well (i like to try before i buy, and frankly, i wouldnt buy an app if the ad-supported version dropped notifications on me).
anyhow, a few more hours and i'll get a better screenie, i hope.
also, i only downloaded the adsupported drocap for THIS purpose, otherwise, i have no reason to screen cap the phone, and i'm certainly not buying an app for a couple screenshots, haha.
better screenie. If they all said "gameloft" or something on it, i'd know what to be suspect about, but they vary wildly.
What apps do you have installed
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
What happens when you click on that notification?
I have a ton of apps, probably waaaay to many to try to list, though, I guess I can.
If i click the icon it takes me to the advertisement. In this case it took me to a gameloft advertisement (previously it took me to a viamob, and whatever else it sends, unfortunately, its never JUST the same thing, or i'd easily know what the program is).
since my aria didn't do it, i'll list what i have that i didnt have on the aria (though i've removed some since, this is what's left)
adobe flash
browsix
current widget
jscreen fix (stupid dead pixel)
light grid pro (live wallpaper)
nova (gameloft game)
webkey
xformula
i know someone is going to point out the ad was for gameloft, and i have a gameloft game, but that's the first time it was a gameloft ad. lol
I also have avg antivirus and lookout. AVG tries to report things, but the first thing that pops up is superuser. Which, obviously i dont want to uninstall, so yeah. Lookout doesnt report anything at all.
It's your gameloft game lol
What's xformula?
Sent from my calculator
haha. i did have the game installed on my aria also though, i just couldnt play it very well.
xformula is a game also, by GOGN (global online game networks), its a racing game.
Ok, so i clicked on the ad this morning (its STILL coming, awesome). anyway, the ad didn't load up properly, so I hit my home button and it took me back to my homescreen, obviously. I then did a home longpress to view recently opened apps, and money lover popped up. I uninstalled, maybe that will do the trick? lol
So, after removing money lover, no more ads (at least this far, guess i found the problem)
Sounds good. Hopefully it helps others if they have a similar problem.

Ads in the statusbar, epic fail on that app

If it stays off for another day or two, i will know for sure that's what it was (the only thing i had deleted yesterday, after the hint from "running apps"). I'll probably go peruse the thread they have on it here at xda, see if anyone else had the issue, and at least give the dev a heads up.

Seriously. I hope this doesn't become a trend. The person who came up with it should be slapped with a series of wet noodles as well.
+1 on that. haha.
It's weird though, because I didn't get the ads on my aria (that I remember, i guess i could boot it up and check, maybe it was an update?). Strange anyway.
Haha agreed!
because i don't want to point fingers if i'm not 100% sure, if i dont get an ad again today (in about 9 hours, just to be safe), i'm going to reinstall moneylover, and see if I get an ad again, just to be sure. If i do, I know its that program and I'll post a warning on the thread about it.
waited, reinstalled last night, woke up and had a notification in my status bar. the culprit is/was MONEY LOVER.

Copilot and Flashing

Copilot doesn't seem to have an answer for this, so I wondered if anyone on XDA has. When I flash a new ROM, I can transfer my Copilot app. registration (with some difficulty) but not my traffic subscription. I have to purchase again, even though I'm using the same phone, just with a ROM update. Has anyone figured out how to defeat this limitation? Thanks!

And if you bought it on Amazon Market Place then idk.. but I DO know that my thanks button is over there >>>>>>
And if I am completely missing the point, my apologies.
I've run into this - and May know the answer
I happen to have the latest version called "Co Pilot Live Premium" and the one before that as well was called "Co Pilot Live North America"
I had bought them on sale of some sort - so that's why I have 2 anyways back to your point.
For the older version - called "Co Pilot Live North America" - I had to activate on the android device - and then I "De-Registered" before flashing ROM and ofcourse you can re- register the device - I have read they are not too pleased with too many re-registrations - they are kind of stuck up like that.
For the newer version - I never had to activate on the device and was not able to de-register - I was told on Facebook I could just re install from the market by Co Pilot Tech on their page. So that is that answer.
Now as far as the quality of the product itself goes - I do not care much for - but that is not for this tread.
Thanks for reading this far.

[Q/NEED HELP] GPS inaccuracy

Hello everyone. As you can see I have a GPS inaccuracy problem. My phone fixes to 7-8 satellites really fast (approx. 10 sec.), but when I use Run Keeper/similar sports tracker or Google Maps my trail is like zig-zag, app shows that I'm moving at crazy speed and so on. I tried AGPS Patch 3.1 by crypted, GPS fix by xenova, flashing some Radios (31_M and 18_M), ROMs and kernels (currently ARHD and Sultan kernel, tried ViperS, CM10.1), but nothing helps... I add some pictures which show my trail when I went across street (Vilniaus g.). Please help. Thanks

Nobody knows what problem this is?
If the problem remains also after wiping all, I think it could be an hardware issue.
Have you always had this problem?
When you use GPS while driving your car, the path has the same issue?
Totally wiped and installed CM10.1, but the problem remains. I bought it used. I don't know how much time it was used, but the digitizer had stock glue and the VOID is not damaged. No rust. So I think the previous user didn't have problems with phone. Never used navigation in car because I live in small country, which doesn't require any navigation to drive across Can RUU affect this? I really need normal lock...
If you try using only google maps? Test it making sure that it is the only app using GPS (kill background open apps).
i have the exact same problem! I've had the phone for a while, so maybe it's something that is worn. I'm thinking about the connections between the antennas and the phone for example. I hope we can find a solution! It's independent of which rom I use and which apps I use.
Have you seen this tip? "New Sensation Install - Gps Problems (Fixed)" @ cyanogenmod forum.
I can't find the option in cm10.1. So maybe they removed it or changed it to something else.
I'm thinking about flashing cm9 just to try it..

Google Maps behaves exactly the same. Arrow, which shows my position, jumping all arround my street pretty much the same as in RunKeeper.

I don't think that this is something software specific. I think that the problem is hiding somewhere deeper but not in software, because all roms and different radios behave the same way. I think this is something hardware related.

Mmm, then I think it's an hardware problem... try to contact HTC support!
Hello again every one. I don't want to create a new thread so I'm writting here. Maybe someone knows what problem this is? HTC support, as always, suggesting me to do things like resetting phone, pulling out the battery, fully charge and so on... I thinking about selling this wonderful phone because of such a big problem... I can't use GPS everywhere...
Gps inaccuracy problem is also facing to me too.
I solved it by flashing the latest firmware and use clocksync before each time i run. Works reasonable, but the clock drifts quite fast. It wasnt enough to only use clocksync or only flash firmware.

It's back.. I've ordered an Omate Truesmart to use for running instead..
My thoughts are that it could be the gps antenna connections to the back. I have no other ideas..
