News & Weather on Screen Saver doesn't update - HTC U12+ Questions & Answers

Looks like the same problem I had with the U11 - when you set News & Weather as the charging Screen Saver, it only displays the news and weather from last time you manually accessed the Google News & Weather app. This morning, my phone was showing news and weather from 3 days ago (the screensaver displays the news elapsed time).
Am I missing something simple here? I don't usually use the Google News & Weather app, but the screensaver doesn't give you a choice (besides Photos). This issue seems to be independent of the news & weather info displayed by Google Home.

[UPDATE 26.04.2011] CHT widget B&L_Group Weather Widget v.5 Final

CHT widget B&L_Group Weather Widget v.5 Final​
Description: A new weather widget. The first version is only shows the weather for 5 days. Supports 2 languages English and Russian. Weather server, as in classical Weather tab-Acuweather (and others will not). Was taken as the basis for the widget script TitaniumWeather Titanium, with a complete reworking and optimization for Manila. When you change the city in the clock settings, automatically will be changed to the nearest minute weather data for the relevant city already, and you can also manually update by clicking on the widget itself and wait 3 to 15 seconds (depends on the speed channel and the response time of the server). To save all the traffic updates are possible only if there is a ready connection and connect to the Internet, cable, Wi-Fi, GPRS. Ie if you want to update the weather, you first need to install handles any of the options for Internet connection, and only then update the weather. This is done to prevent spontaneous eating traffic.
There is an opportunity to consolidate.
Attention! The widget only works with a specified cities, with a location it did not work. All matters related to this, I'll ignore it.
In the 2 version adds:
1. Conclusion obschy information
2. Wind speed and direction
3. Probability of Precipitation
4. Sunrise and sunset
5. 4 different maps widget
- Full and abbreviated with the temperature in Celsius
- Full and abbreviated with the temperature in Fahrenheit
In the version 3 is added:
1. Extended forecast up to 9 days
2. Phases of the Moon (varies depending on the chosen day, together with additional information)
3. 8 different maps widget
- 9 days with temperatures in Celsius
- 9 days with temperatures in Fahrenheit
- 5 days with temperatures in Celsius
- 5 days with temperatures in Fahrenheit
- 9 days with temperatures in ° C More
- 9 days with temperatures in Fahrenheit More
- 5 days with temperatures in ° C More
- 5 days with temperatures in Fahrenheit More
In the version 4 is added:
1. Fixed display of weather icons
2. Added program to install the update time widget from 1 minute to 1440 minutes (1 day)
In the version 4.1 is added:
1. Fixed updating a given time
2. Fixed manual update
In the version 4.2 is added:
1. Eating disabled Internet traffic
In the version 5 Final is added:
1. Completely changed the algorithm updates the time
2. Added a configuration file to change the color of the text widget
Short press on the weather icon opens the detailed information on the selected day (automatically switches to the information today after 5 seconds.) Long press of the weather updates when connected to the Internet.

Skins for the Weather widget:
1. ShowacoSkin (After installation restart Manila or SoftReset)
2. dunc001 Light Grey Weather Widget Icons

Some cities and locations are not picked up by the server being used.
Try setting a city close to you, in the clock settings.
Tap home clock and set a city.
Then refresh the widget.
More city detections, which would require another server and the option to display F or C would be awesome too.
But very nice job.
1* so cool xD
Waiting 4 next release xDDD
Genius again Moonah! Look forward to some nice skins for this one!

Similarly, I forgot to write that the city must be added manually to the location of the weather is not selected. The choice of temperature in Fahrenheit (F) or Celsius (C) will be added in next version, though the script now and it may, but not used yet. So do not rush me, and quietly waiting for.

Yes, I saw it in there.
Looking forward to it and nobody is rushing anyone.
In your time MoonNah.
I was hoping for a similar widget, without the use of mortscript, but so far this one seems not to be such a battery eater, due to the update method you have implemented.
So cheers for that.
I think I know what being rushed and bugged for an ETA is like and I am not here for that.
I want to make a few widgets of my tabs GPS for cookies

ME TOO~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wow, nice one! This is really great but one question. How do I get rid of the "frigid" and other word "icons" for weather? Just want the animations used from sense. Anyone?

WHAT AN AMAZING WIDGET
Hello
Great Widget
Is the String
"wwwa.accuweather.com/adcbin/forecastfox/weather_data.asp?location="&location&"&metric="&metric)"
in TitaniumWeatherEng.mscr correct?

Is there any weather app like this?

Hi,
Do you know any weather app that does not have running service?
Yes, weather forecast app that can pull data "manually" ...
No need periodic / interval update ...
Widget is not necessary either ...
Moved to Q&A BW, Fancy widget, and even the default news and weather app has this I believe
Most have these "features" and I don't really like that either. I've noticed that most of them will let you change the frequency that they pull info. Some down to 12 hours.
Fancy widget has lots of refresh options. One of them being to only refresh weather manually.
Thanks for all the suggestions. At the end, I ended up with (again) Beautiful Widget 1x1 (I already bought this when I use HTC Desire).
The reason that I want to find this kind of weather app, because I want to limit the number of running (background) services.
So, I replaced the Beautiful Widget Home widget with "simiClock" because it is simple, elegant and uses black background (save battery life).
simiClock has weather info as well ... But it does not have forecast.
That's why I was looking for weather app which can be activated (launched) when I press the simiClock weather.
But, it seems I cannot find one ... The one with update/interval can be controlled (I am not weather obsessive guy, so manual update is the best for me).
At the end, I am back with Beautiful widget weather 1x1 ... until I found a nice weather forecast app to launch from simiClock
I purchased the Weatherbug Elite. It has the options to turn off the background processing and only grab weather data when you run the app.
it's unfortunate, but i'm running into the same situation
i want to disable the back ground processing of the weather app that i like, but the app doesn't have such a feature/option
the app is supplied directly from The Weather Network, and it's very accurate, all the other apps that i've tried before are not so great
Try WeatherPro, best weather app imo
try Fancy widget... you'll love it! great app
Moxier World is by far the best I've found.
It updates either automatically or manually.
It also shows local time and weather in as many world locations as you need. It has 5 days forecast for each.

yes, it is nice, it's what i'm using
Try this out. It has an option to set update interval (or disable update entirely)

Best weather apps/widgets?

What are the best Weather apps or widgets, of any variety and quickly why?
If the app costs $, be sure to say so!
I'm compiling a list of threads that will help people find the best apps/widgets of each category. Will recompile when done so your help is greatly appreciated!
Looks like Beautiful Widgets will take the win here, but I'm sure many will want another app/widget that's free.
weather bug--free
For Weather you are spoilt for choice.
Besides what has already been mentioned there's:-
eWeather HD Widget & Barometer ~ £1.85
Palmary Weather Pro ~ £1.85
Weather Pro ~ £2.13
Go Weather ~ Free
...... and many, many others which I will leave for someone else to add to.
i used optimus x2 weather widget..
its called today briefing..
I'm by no means well-versed in weather apps as I'm only starting to play with them, but these are my observations so far. Accuweather has nice icons that I like but keeps force closing on me. Hope that will be fixed soon. Genie news and weather is good too, you can choose to display just weather.
Beautiful Widgets is my choice. Fully customizable with downloadable skins for Clock, Weather, Battery widget, and Toggle Widgets.
Press the weather area and it will launch your choice of Weather App *I use WeatherBug Paid (I try to support if its a mainstay)* the Radar can be slow though but it works..
Press the Time spot and will launch you choice of Clock or Alarm. *I use Gentle Alarm*
Press the Date area and will launch your choice of Calendar. *I use Jorte*
All of that is customizable. For instance if you wanted to you could config it to launch Angry Birds on press of any of above or any other app or shortcut of your choosing.
I love the Animated Weather effects. though last week during Snowpocylpse here is Chicago area I thought the drifting was a bit overkill... LOL

How to use Google Now widget as a full size weather widget

Hey all,
Just a quick question about the Google now widget. As can be seen here, how can you make it so the Google Now widget shows the weather widget (and nothing else) in full size like in the middle screen shot? Mine only shows today with the temp and weather icon plus the nex 2 days' weather icons (but no temp).
Appreciate any help
Thanks guys
