No matter what my htc weather clock always shows me in the wrong place with the wrong weather data, is there a fix for this?
This happens on my mom's phone and I haven't found a fix for it yet.

Open settings/developer options and make sure the option to display fake location weaather and data isn't enabled. And turn on GPS and open google maps and get a lock.

I found this app in the Samsung GS2 forum.
From what I understand this app is also available through the android market. I am not taking credit in anyway for the development of this app just liked it and decided to post it here for us too use.

Thanks for sharing, this is great. But one gripe, it puts an icon in the notification bar and of you drop it down and select it, it takes you to the setting so anyone can change the settings.

If you turn off the lock notification, you cant launch the app from the pulldown.

Thank you, that works! Also in the setting you can check off the app also so if you try opening the app itself, it is also protected..I should have thought of that lol.

It works its just that my brother and mom can get in with no problem. Haha I'll test it out on some friends to see if its worth keeping.
thanks alot cool app works great on my 3vo
I have tried it with a few friends it kept them out. Not saying its perfect but you can also try raising the security level to high. Just makes sure you take a variety of test pics in different lighting for the best results

I found a flaw though. On sense 3.0 if the application you have locked is on your lock screen, it somehow opens the app anyways, therefore this app is useless.

Are you sure the app was running? I just tried my lockscreen and it locked it for me. Make sure you have the notification on and that the icon is in your notification bar, so can make sure the app is running. Something else you can try, there is a setting that allows you change whether or not you have to constantly unlock it or unlock one app and it stays unlocked

Facial Rec Lock Screen
Can this be used as a lock screen? Is there a setting I may have missed?
Great idea and app.
Thanks for any assistance.

you can turn the setting off where it stops prompting to Face Rec every time you turn off the screen and open the app.
I cant wait for it to be used in conjunction with the lockscreen/unlocking the phone...
It makes me feel like im somebody off of mission impossible or something...

I figured out a workaround...
Install "Agile Lock" (free on Market, and a Sense 3.0 lockscreen that's meant for AOSP ROMS normally) https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nanoha.SenseScreen
and set the app to activate when used...
Profit.
R WE NOT PHONES?!?

I set this to lock golauncher, which works well as phone wont launch after unlocking it until face verified. UNLESS, you slide an app to the lockring, then it bypasses it and I think crashes visidon, becuse i then have to open the app and back out to make it work again. Would be a sweet app if this was fixed.

I use the Screen Off and Lock app to turn off the screen without fumbling for the power button. For some reason it doesn't work properly on the S3 - it turns off the screen briefly but then the screen turns itself back on.
Does anyone know of a homescreen widget or app which will turn off the S3 screen?
I also install it, on my device its set the screen off, then it came back for a second and then off.

Yes, that's exactly what it's doing on mine now.
Unfortunately, it will only work properly if the lock screen security > none
Tested with Swype, face and pin. Obviously the screen security prevents it from staying off.

That's exactly how my settings are - the screen still switches itself on again momentarily after tapping then Screen Off and Lock app. I've now tried a couple of the other free "screen off" apps and widgets and they do exactly the same thing, so maybe there's some sort of issue with an API in the S3?

In the menu I posted, select "none", then it will screen off properly. The app (and others) obviously have issue with TW lockscreen with any setting other than "none".

Why not? Read my previous posts.
With lock set to "none", the app works properly, with any type of lock, the screen will flicker from off to lockscreen on.
This proves the app is not totally compatible with SGS3 TW lockscreen.

Running beans v3, lockscreen weather keeps displaying as Tasso, and there's no way to change it, where can I do so? If I can't, are there any other apps that display weather on lockscreen?

It really depends on the widget/app that you are using... The one that comes stock is garbage imo! I have Weatherbug and you can set it to JUST use your internal gps for location data instead of tower generated info (which usually ends up being wrong). Just explore some different weather apps and find one that works good for ya! :good:
I find HD widgets to be far more accurate than any other option.
Unless you tell them too, most weather widgets will pick up your coarse location, which is based on network information. This is much faster and less battery intensive than using GPS. The problem is you may get bad location data for the tower(s) nearby and end up in the wrong place. Mine are always close enough as I'm just really interested in temperature. Not all weather apps though will support the use of GPS for fine location though.
had this same problem with beautiful widgets...make sure you check settings to make sure you are using the gps. if that fails, try going into app manager and clearing data. last thing i would try is deleting app and redownloading.

I had the same problem with beautiful widgets.
It invariably decided soon after I installed it tha I was in new york city which is 600 miles from me.
It never made any difference what I set for GPS etc, it still did it. It did exactly the same thing in my wifes G3.
HD widgets works so well however that I don't even install anything else.
The addition to my notification area telling me that my location is set by GPS is driving me crazy.
Anyone know how to get rid of it?

Hi all,
It seems providing accurate weather is not the easiest thing to do. For starters, our development team is trying hard to change the weather provider, which should hopefully fix those bugs. We apologize for the inconvenience. If you're still having trouble, you can contact [email protected].
