My htc news widget won't update. Any one has a similar problem? Any idea how to solve this?

In Accounts & Sync is News set to sync? (Sorry if that's too obvious, but it's the best place to start.)

Thank you but ya it's set to sync.

try clicking the little refresh button on the bottom of the widget, that always works for me...if that doesnt work, remove the widget, add it again, re-add the news sources, and it *should* be fine after that

Solution of this problem
No folks, it is a well known bug for this widget. So the solution is simple. Install GOOGLE READER and sign in with your account and refresh. After that the news widget will work for you and update your RSS feed forever.

This HTC News app would be so much better if it had a way to mark all stories as read. Thumbing through all my stories takes forever...

Why would you use HTC News if you already have Google Reader installed?

for me, the news app stopped syncing after the ROM update.I factory reset, and all is ok now.

For what I know (which isn't that much), for that you need to have root on your phone and use adb commands or an app like Titanium Backup or other, but unless your phone is s-off, you can only have temp root at the moment, on a reboot you will loose root privileges and everything would be installed back again...
So, if you don't have s-off, you'll have to wait...

go to the dev forum & look for the fr3vo temp-root post & the post about how to disable apps.

Thanks for your replies...
I know that i need a root... Hence me saying at the start of my OP after I've rooted using Eugenes perma temp root...
I know how to delete apps and I know I need a root to do so, I just want to make sure the apps I've listed are ok to delete?

You didn't pay attention to the second part of xnifex's post, which mentioned to go to the dev section and look at the post about how to disable apps.
There is a running list in the second post of which apps people have found safe to disable.

Ok. I shall do this.
Thank-a-gen

All u have to do is temp root and download root explorer. Go to system/apps and delete whatever apks u don't want. Use task killer clear sense launcher and apps will be gone.

[Q] folder organizer with widget support?

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone had heard of an app like simifolder or folderorganizer, but had widget support.. So like when it opens, you can have like your facebook, twitter, G+ post widgets... Or one to open that shows phone system info like setcpu, avail mem, etc

Post video with Official Twitter app?

I could've sworn I could post video from the official Twitter app. Using InsertCoin 3.4.1 and when I choose a video and go to share Twitter is not an option. Anyone else confirm? Did I miss when they removed it?
