Clock location errors - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok some one has probably answered this so sorry if its a repost... but I content find it on here...
My problem is my phone automatically changes its location so wierd places like most recently Hong Kong. And I know I didn't do it by accident because most of the time it has it when I wake up... on solution is by turning off automatic but I like having the weather n temperature... so is there another fix without making the HTC sense weather clock completely just a regular clock

Default clock widget on HTC Desire

the clock also has my "supposed" location" just underneath the time.
Is there any way to change the settings on the widget to remove the location as the location is never correct ( i think it may be the location of the phone mast it is using )
Also if i remove the clock widget altogether, how do i get it back as Ive been into Add Widgets and it is not the "Analog Clock" by Andoird or the Clock by HTC
Have you clicked on the Clock by HTC and gone right? Its there.
When you re-add it you can add a City of anywhere, so you can manually choose your own city. Not sure about the name, haven't really looked at that part...
it is the clock by h t c you need to swipe to the right to see the version you're talking about.
when you choose the widget you can choose any location you want

yeah that is it, i thought it was a differen one as it had the weather in it.
Doesn't look there is a way to disable the location

I dunno about disabling location but you can pick your own location instead of it doing it automatically.

I don't need an app to tell me what the weather is right now, where I am right now. I've got five built-in senses that do a pretty good job of working that out, no data connection necessary.
I like the flip clock though.
Related (But not what OP asked). The Defaulted clock the Location was wrong at Arrival obviously. However after changing it into the Right City the weather plugin on the Homescreen now displays the right area (Although lacking the proper letters "å ä ö" are displayed as "a a o" but that's not the problem. Once I hit the weather it suddenly displays the "Current" city seems to be defaulted at "Sweden"... Is there a way to change that Current city or force it so it displays the right things?

Have a look on the market for a flip clock app then or just IGNORE the weather on it.

HTC Clock Widget Problem

So for some reason the weather of my current location is messed up and wont load. It's stuck at a high of 55º and low of 0º and the weather doesnt load on the widget. If i choose a city the weather works fine, just not with the current location. Anyone know what could be causing this or have a fix?

Try going to settings, applications, and then look for the htc weather and try clearing cache or data. I hope that help
This happening to me right now as well, so I don't think going into settings will help...

Yep I just bought 2 new Evos and had them less then a week and we both today were talking about the weather portion of the widget not working correctly.
was happening earlier today for me as well, but all is normal now
Delete the widget and just reinstall it and that should fix it. I believe they updated it along with accuweather.
If you notice now that when you click the weather to go the detailed weather page at the bottom where it says weather if you click that it will now take you to the accuweather webpage and you can view more detailed info. I believe it used to be this way got broken and now they fixed it. I like it. And if you watch it were it says weather with time below it now switches back and forth from the time to "More details online" .

Mine doesn't. The only time I noticed it doing that is when I had multiple locations. The non home locations did it, but not the home.

I just tested, I run multiple locations also and it works on both of them, home and my other one.
Running Stock Froyo
I did a reboot and it fixed the weather issue.

[Q] Time differnece in digital clock widget

Hi all,
I am new to SE and new to android ,the problem what i face is in desktop i have digital clock widget and it shows different time from the time set in settings and what displayed in top right corner , also when phone is locked when a key press is made i am able to see correct time.
i have unchecked automatic option in date & time settings.
how to solve this problem ?
Time in settings and top corner: 9:21
Time in digital clock widget : 3:51
Thanks in advance
that happened to me but it fixed it self so no idea
maybe you used a taskkiller and killed the app responsable for the widgets updates?
i didnt use task killer..any fix?
You haven't got it set to display a different time-zone do you?
sorry for late reply ....switched off and on fixed the problem
Hi,
I faced the same problem over the last few days... the clock just sometimes seems out of sync with the system clock. Pretty annoying.
Removing and re-adding the widget helps, but that's just a useless fuss.
I'm trying the reboot and see if it sticks now.
Regards,
cherryfish
Edit: just to make it clear, I'm using the digital clock widget that's on the Homescreen by default.
only get that problem with BobClockD3, no problem with another clock widget.
It also happened to me. I just reset the time and all will have same tume.

[Q] Any Way To Make Weather Auto Update From Sense 3.0 Lockscreen?

I have the Weather Lockscreen on my phone but its pretty pointless because it only shows the weather of when i last updated. is there a way to make the weather update on the lockscreen once you wake your phone?
Bump

Is this possible?
I'll bump this too - anyone?
Same with "Stocks" lockscreen. I mean how useless is it to show yesterday's stock prices?

Lol same. It says sunny but that was yesterdays weather and right now its raining. I can only change it if i manualy update the info which is really annoying
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
They probably just think that it will be quite a CPU/Data drain to refresh every single time you turn your phone's screen on.
Doesn't the lockscreen widget update every time the regular weather app is set to update? You can make that pull data pretty frequently I'm sure. Idk though I haven't used Sense in forever.
go to account and sync and set weather sync more rapid

HTC's Weather Unavailable

The weather/clock widget on my lockscreen says "Weather Unavailable" ! I found it, that if I turn of my location settings, the weather will show up again, but I do not want it to stay on all the time, so what I did is I went to the weather options and added manually my city, hoping that it will no longer be necessary to leave location service on all the time, but NO, that didn't happen, it still says "Weather Unavailable" !
What am I missing ? With any other weather app I seam to be able to add the city manually and not to worry bout the location setting to be on constantly, so is there a way to do the same with HTC's weather widget ?
Thanks

I have no problem finding my city, it is immediately detected by the app, also I am getting the weather info inside the weather app itself, but on the lockscreen widget it just shows "WEATHER UNAVAILABLE"
At first I though that I probably "hibernated" something from Greenify, responsible for updating the weather info, but no! there is nothing that is remotely related to weather widget

Yes I can confirm, it works on ether of those settings ( high accuracy or battery saving). But the location setting is just to determine the location, that's it. After that a mobile data or wifi is required to get the weather info for that area (previously determined by the location service), but I have already added the location manually in to the weather app, but yet it still requires to have the location service On, constantly
