Dunno know what I did, but all of a sudden, when I go to my home page, I get clouds floating across my screen. It's partly cloudy here, so I know the animation is related to the weather function on my phone. My settings show that all animations are off. I know at one time I turned this animation off, but I'm damned if I can remember how.
I use beautiful widgets and LaunchPro, if that helps. All settings for animations are off, but if I enable them in beautiful widgets, it makes the animation faster.
Please help me turn the damned animation off.
I SOLVED IT! I'm getting better at this troubleshooting thing!
See I forgot to mention that I used WidgetLocker, and therein lay the problem. Don't think I would have ever noticed it unless I had another problem that forced me to reinstall that app.
In Widget locker, there is a setting under Settings => Look&Feel. All the way at the bottom is a drop list for (get this)HTC weather animations. I clicked on disabled, and my problem went away.
Gaah! It's always the simple solutions that are sooooooo hard to find.
Turning off Weather Animations
The other method is to hold and drag your home screen Weather Widget to delete it, then add it back in and uncheck the weather animations box.
This might not be the best method for people that have a lot of weather cities saved.

I've been flashing different roms (I'm on Verizon), and I'm on the EnergyROM Leo 23518, and the weather animations demo have been missing. Is there any way to add them back? Please note, I'm not referring to the weather animations on the home screen, I'm referring to the weather animations demo, where you can cycle through all the different animations in the weather tab.

You mean the screen that you can toggle and shows rain,snow,sun,etc animations?
Wait so your on Verizon? Just (same as others) high the left side and the right side where weather is.

This only toggles the demo for the different types of animations. I'm looking for the full screen, 10-15 sec weather animations.
This is what I'm looking for. Please note the Demo option in the menu.

Have you tried the old trick of pressing the left side of the screen just under the start menu and then pressing the right side under the clock/task manager. I know on my old fuze that would bring up the weather demo. I'm running a Sense 2.5 rom right now so this doesnt work for me. But I think it did on my ATT original rom.
For me I have to go to the home screen, press menu and then select weather demo.
Try the left and right press though at the top of the screen and see what happens. You may have to do it a few times. I know mine used to have to do it before I figured out where extactly to push.

Yea, that gives a different animation. I'm looking for the Demo option you have. I'm on Sense 2.5 as well.
try choosing the default wallpaper under settings or chaning the wallpaper under homescreen menu. the top one should say home wallpaper, pick a weather one. Have you installed any other wallpapers, because depending on which ones they will take away your weather animations.
I think I'm being misunderstood here. I have the weather animation on the home screen. I am looking for the DEMO option for the weather animations. This is different than the top left/top right on the weather tab. This is a menu option. Menu > DEMO. Please see the youtube video I linked to above. That's EXACTLY what I'm looking for.
Hello all
May seem to be a silly question, but especially to the devs out there, is it possible to stop the full screen weather animations (the one's seen after the phone is taken out of standby) from halting when the phone is interacted with?
Also, would there be a way to repeat the animations? Once again, may be silly and far-fetched, but I am really curious. You are welcome to hit me with all the technical terms you want - I am experienced in Android development work.
Thanks for the assistance!
to stop weather animation, you need to remove clock widget, and add it again, then after you select a city for the weather, it will ask you if you want it animated.
he wants to stop the animation from halting! (stop it from stopping)
not to stop it.
Haha, I can see major confusion happening here. Let me make it simple.
When you press the power button to take the phone out of standby, unlock the screen, and wait a little on the homescreen, you will see the full-screen weather animations appear (clouds across the screen, sun glare, rain drops etc). However, the minute you touch anything on the screen, it just halts.
Now me, being a fan of the HD2's interface, wants to have the weather animation continue even if I touch it, and for it to loop. However, now that I think about it in theory, it will probably not happen or be practical.
Hi,
I've got the ubiquitous HTC flip-clock-with-weather on my main home screen; whenever I unlock the device, I get the weather animation across the full screen. It seems to me that when I have notifications, I cannot pull down the notification bar until the weather animation completes, which is quite annoying. Is there any way to disable that animation (apart from the obvious one of removing the widget)? It's one of those things that was cool when I first got the phone, but grates on the nerves after a while.
Thanks,
John
Yes, but you still have to remove the widget first.
Add the widget again. You will be given the option to disable "Full screen animation".
(The weather animation never seemed to get in the way of the notification bar for me though...)
Cheers, that worked a charm!
When you re-add it you can also set the update frequency which might help some with battery issues. IMO there's no point updating the weather forecast more than twice a day.
Hi all. I just got an Evo (upgraded from Hero) and can't figure out how to totally disable the weather animations. I've turned checked the "disable all window animations" under settings but when I unlock phone and the screen comes on I still get a brief weather animation. I've also tried removing the weather widget from my screen and re-adding it and unchecking the option that says "enable full screen animation."
SORRY FOUND ANSWER TO MY QUESTION ON MY OWN LOL. I had to disable weather animations in widget locker app.
need help guys.

So far I have only seen the weather animation on the lock screen when it rains. I don't know if there is any other animations, maybe when it snows:cyclops:
yup it showed on rainy.
on cloudy, it didn't.

i almost ask about exactly the same thing.
so, the 'smart' phone will only tell us if it rains and not otherwise... hmmm.. not so smart afterall... lol...
but i swear i saw in utube that the guys phone is showing sunny weather on the lock screen... is it sunny and rainy only? or we did something wrong?
the ones i saw with sun on youtube vids are mostly g2 and htc phones.
Just turn on the sync on your notìication panel and enjoy great ânimtion.
In mine i see it aslo raining, but today i saw the sun on my screen
I wish it would work with xposed framework Miss that cool aspect of the lock screen.
We're you guys able to fix this animation not showing? Got V50. No response from V50 users yet.
