Hello. I just noticed that my weather widget and also my Hanping chinese widgets aren't refreshing bythemselves. I have to do it manually all the time.
Has anyone else noticed this kind of behavior in some widgets? I am not sure if its been doing this all the time or did it just start recently.
Could rooting and freezing some applications be the issue here?
I was wondering the same about the weather widget...

Using stock weather? It is really bad. Looks nice but never even locates me.
And this is embarrassing but non stock weather and also hangping seems to start refreshing now. Don't know why
I've got the same problem with the Pulse News widget.
Would love to know the problem!
WTF is up with accuweather lately?
We had the blizzard of the year and it just says "cloudy". I switched beautiful widgets to pull from google weather instead, and it says "overcast". I've seen it change from cloudy, to sunny, and party cloudy, but it hasn't shown any precip in a long time. Even the moto weather widget says the same.
I know its not a phone issue, but just curious if its the local weather reporting or if Accuweather is just lazy or something.

If your GPS is off it wont read accurately, location & security...if you set it to not update that is a no brainer....I have not had any problem with my weather on any ROM with any device...except if I changed those settings

tnx for the reply, but its not the phone or the gps, those are fine. Its actually the Accuweather feed (or google feed when I try that one).
I just thought I'd ask the folks here cause we're all watching that kind of thing.
Even accuweather.com just shows "cloudy".

Dunno, I use accu weather from Beautiful Widgets and I haven't noticed any problems.. It's right on the money.

I use Beautiful Widgets too and mine is kind of screwy lately. I don't use the gps location thing. Just enter my zip code in and leave it set to where I live all the time unless I'm traveling. I'm using accu weather too. Well, for those that don't know, you can click on the weather part of the widget and another screen will open up with five days of weather forecasts at the bottom. They are just icons or pictures more or less of what the weather is for that day. However, if you click on one, it will open up the browser and take you to an accu weather forecast page for your location for that day. A few days ago I did just that and the web page said the temp was 50 something degrees. I thought, WTF? It's only in the 20's here. Then I noticed that it was opening a page for Pittsburg PA. It's still doing it. There's a link I can click on to change locations and when I do, my town is there as a link to click on. Have no idea what's going on. Is it accu weather or the app itself? Don't know but it bugs the heck out of me.
Guys I've purchased a New S3, and what I've noticed is that the stock default clock widget doesnt refresh automatically on unlock. So there is always a difference in the notification bar time and the widget time. Only when I click on the widget it updates after opening alarm. What the hell is wrong with my phone?:crying::crying::crying::crying:
Are you using a task killer? If so, ignore it in the task killer.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
i have the same problem , no task killer
stock rom , siyah kernel
It used to work i don't know what happened i didn't change anything
Same. Didnt change anything. also no taskkiller installed...persistant issue.
Same issue here and I've tried Go Launcher/Apex with Beautiful Widget/Fancy Widget/Beweather Pro.
An unbelievable phone (knocks spots off of anything I've ever had) yet it can't tell the bloody time properly - really annoying!!!!
A quick fix is put it in landscape to redraw/refresh the screen to update the clock when I've brought the phone out of sleep. Not ideal, but at least the clock is updated. Maybe the JB update will fix this issue? Who knows!
The only widget I can get to work properly is the native weather clock. I don't want such a big widget so I've tried several different other clock widgets and they won't keep the correct time. I wish someone would find out what the problem is. I like the clocks in Beautiful Widgets, but they won't update.
Hello all!
Been using Themer for some days now, and it's just great compared to other launchers out there. I tried GO launcher but hated the ads and 'chinese style'. Tried Nova too, but it was too similar to TW in my use. Themer is both original and not-pushy.
I use the HUD theme, which looks great and keeps the kids away from my phone (because it looks so weird ). One thing I don't really care about is the weather. I have a weather app I use daily to check the weekly forecast, I go out a few times a day, I have windows in my house so I can check the weather by turning my head... I really don't need Themer telling me the wrong weather anymore.
So, my request: could someone swap the weather widget to show something else, like core temp? I know I could do it myself, but it would take weeks and most of you can probably do it in a few minutes.

Hi there!
Having something like core temp is a bit tricky, as the widgets we provide don't really include that option.
Have you tried going into Themer Settings - Weather - then changing your weather provider - this might fix your temp problem.
You could always post the theme's wallpaper (found in Themer Wallpapers in your Gallery) and we could try Photoshop the "temperature" text and replace it with something else instead?
Changing the provider doesn't help. It still shows 0 all the time.
I can't think of much else to fill the empty space with. While I was quickly checking how the themes are built, I noticed that there's a line in launchersettings.xml that looked weird:
Code:
<string name="com.mycolorscreen.themer.wallpaper_transistion">slide</string>
Is it really supposed to be 'transistion' and not 'transition'?
Anyway, onto the request again. I'm starting to feel OK with the weather filling the space. I think I have figured out something though: I have all my location things off, so it mught cause a problem for the weather widget. Ideally I'd like it to work so that you have an option to lock your location (just use the one it has now and lock it or type it in) and then it just regularly sends weather data on the same location to the widget. Now it seems to try to fetch your location, then send it to the weather service and that sends the data back to widget. I don't travel much so having a locked location would be a nice thing to have in the widget. Only time the widget has chances of updating the temp is when I go geocaching
Does it even work like that?
Hello, i came across a problem, when applying a theme to the P8 a problem occurs.
The time on the desktop en statusbar only refreshes when screen is on and unlocked.
When screen is locked and the time is f.e. 10:50, when you unlock it the time on desktop and statusbar isnt the same as lockscreen. Say that you last checked your phone at 10:25, the clocks will show that time for a second and then changes to the correct time. Very annoying!!
Tried different themes and they all do the same. No problem with default theme.
Hope someone recognises it and maybe someone has a solution.
T.i.a. Dirk
What launcher and widget are you using?
