[Q] spb weather weatherzone issues - General Questions and Answers

Hi All,
Have been using Spb Weather 2.2x for some time now without issues. It has suddenly stopped working properly this month with the weatherzone template version 03.12.2009. I now only get temperatures for 2 days and only the max. The min is set to the max. Anyone know what has happened. Did some search on Google to no avail. Is it coincidental that it stopped working 2 years after the version date?
Thanks in advance,
Vlad

Just an idea:
Maybe the template to pull data from the weather service has changed (only guaranteed to stay the same for 2 years?), so now the wrong data is being pulled and parsed.

Google Maps Constantly Running

Hello, I'm new here. I have tried to search for this and nothing recent came up but apologises if I missed something.
Google Maps never seems to close (restarts after killing). I don't know if this happened before the Maps update (couple of days ago). I have turned off buzz and latitude yet its used 11% of my battery (and I've not used it once). Is there anyway to stop this happening as my current battery life is awful?
I'm using a HTC Desire on Orange UK if anybody needs to know.
Thanks, Rowan.
Do you have Google Latitude enabled ? If so it's constantly reporting your location ...

Ah turns out I did, I thought i'd disabled but I must not have.
It's now disabled but still alyways runs but no longer is in the battery usage page, is this a problem or should I jsut ignore it?
Thanks, Rowan.

Hi. This drove me crazy too. Try this.
1. Open browser normally
2. Visit any site other than your home page
3. Set this site as your Home Page
4. Revisit old Home Page
5. Reset this to Home Page
Voila!! Google Maps stops. I assume it will work for any app that keeps running.

Reboot issues
Has anyone been able to sort out the reboot issues?
I have it working in landscape now problems. Except when it is in the actual navigation mode, it reboots the phone.
If there is no nav, just the map, no problem.
Thanks for your help guys.
Reboot issue with iGo on HD2
I had the irritating problem of freezing when starting ANY navigation software. And to be more exact, when the software achieves a satellite fix!!
I noticed that the lower part of the phone warms up everytime, and it helped to extend the duration of navigation software by putting it against the air condition of the car. But this was not enough, because iGo worked only for 5 minutes at best, after which I had to pull the battery and WAIT for a couple of minutes before inserting it again and restart the phone.
It's really hot in Egypt at this time of the year. So, this meant that the HD2 is permanently and completely crippled when it comes to GPS software.
So, I moved to SD android, which had the same problem. The phone also froze when it connected to to GPRS on Android after some time (about 5 minutes without cooling).
The next logic step was flashing a NAND android, hoping that the probelm was in WM6.5.3 itself. Surprisingly, the Android NAND had the same problem!!!
I finally discovered the ultimate solution; UNDER-CLOCK your CPU! since then I could use CoPilot on android for as long as I want.
Now, I'm moving back to WM and going to under-clock the CPU to see if this will work.
please let me know if this helps you..
BTW, I noticed that this restart issues with GPS software was somewhat common with HD2 esp in hot weather, but I think this is the first time somebody (that'll be me!!) comes out with a solution. So, I'm really looking to replicate it and test it.

I used hd2 (wm 6.5.5)+TomTom last summer in Sardinia (not as hot as Egypt .. but driving hours under the sun in a car with black leather interior is quiet the same ) and never had any lags or device over heating.
maybe iGo for WM is buggy
I have never had those issues.
I have been using TomTom for over 12 months, I switched to iGo and it was perfect. I then run iGo Primo and it also works with maps on only.
When I use the voice navigation, thats when it reboots. This tells me it's not an overheating issue, but a config or voices problem.
Other people using it in Italy don't have the problem. I assume I need to find other English voice files.
igo8 without bug on winmo
hi,
personally i am using this version ( Nav N Go iGo8 Revision 3
V 8.3.4.102680 - August 13 2009 )
you can download it from
david2131.com
or from google torrents search
the size is about 44mb without maps
i use it for one year and it has no bug for me and its not slow.
N.B : format your sd card (1 or 2 gb) and install IGO8 on it before installing anything, its very important to do this step for a 100% success.
you don't have to install nothing, it's just copy paste, and works like charm.

I had a same problem and do the tricks same as you do.
At first time for about week or two under clock do the job, but after some time situation goes worse and worse. After problem with GPS, there were problems with WIFI and Youtube clips, after that situation came little bit worse because i didn't even make a call without restart or freeze.
And at all times lower part of phone goes warmer and warmer. I bring it to service and they told me that they know for that bug for HTC HD2 and it`s a usual problem. They changed mother board and now phone work like a charm without this problems and it`s a cold always.

[Q] HTC Sensation time alters

Hi Ihave insertcoin 5.2.0 installed. I have a problem when using either Strava or Sports Tracker my clock loses time. I have searched for similar problems but to no avail, hope someone can help me. This also happened when I was using earlier version of insertcoin rom.:crying:
Hey you could try this app below to keep your time up to date, it changes the system clock based on current time.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.org.amip.ClockSync&hl=en
Hi thanks for your link have installed it. I am still having the same problem did a workout today using Sportstracker for 1 hour and the clock lost 10 mins. I am now at a loss of what to do.
May be is to go back to original setting before I installed insertcoin and see what happens then.
Once again thanks for your help.

Google Maps Settings Not Sticking and Wakelock

Hello,
I recently discovered that my battery life had become very poor, and so I checked the wakelocks and it turned out to be RilJ Dialer, leading to a mspi and radio interface wakelock whenever my signal become low or gone( I get poor reception in areas of my school). I learned that RilJ Dialer is used when apps are requesting network location through wifi only, and the most common culprit is Maps. I froze maps and the problem was gone, so I set out to fix maps. It turns out that the background location settings is stuck at manually set location when I try to set it to not report location, it will always change back when I leave the menu. Ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling, fixing permissions, and going online and changing all my map settings through there, and nothing has worked. Is this a bug with Maps? I currently have is froze, and toggle between frozen and unfrozen when I need it, because it takes way too much battery in low/no signal locations. Thank in advance.

I've recently started experiencing this problem as well. My guess is you haven't found a solution yet?

Hey Boojay,
Unfortunately, I was never able to find a solution. I was using Cyanogenmod 7.2, and just froze maps when not in use and unfroze it when I needed it. A few weeks after the problem arose, I had some time off, and so I decided it was time to upgrade my software, and so I flashed Cyanogenmod 10.2, did all the associated upgrades, set up maps, and the problem never came back, and maps is working perfectly as of now on 4.3.1. I'm not sure what Android version you are on, but when I had the problem I tried everything in the original post, but it still didn't work. I understand that your post quite old, so hopefully you have found a solution by now.

No worries and I didn't find a solution, but I'm using a rom now where battery life isn't an issue despite that little quirk.
It seems Google's goal is to use more resources and keep track of our whereabouts at the expense of battery. I'm not too thrilled with the direction they're taking with their apps and OS lately, but what can ya do?
